Some people think that "Paris" is a failed movie, and that this big city "swallowed up" this movie, but personally there is no such thing in the process of watching the movie. It feels that although the film is still some distance away from a "good" movie, it is not a failure. On the contrary, the scenes that frequently shake through the sky above the city seem to have some timely emotions and subtext, and it seems that Looking back and forth at the common sights of Parisians from the perspective of a lover who both loves and hates. Among them, the large-scale view and bird's-eye view increase and extend the emotional fluctuation and atmosphere creation of the film, and endow all kinds of people living in Sri Lanka. Wait for a smart, sensual, flat and natural backboard.
There are many films reflecting a city and its inhabitants, and Paris is even more popular with bloggers. There are countless light and shadow creations with the word Paris in the title, such as "The Last Tango in Paris", "The Moment of Paris", etc., not yet. Mention those films that are fading away in years. This 2008 "Paris" is a group portrait film, focusing on the group portrait life of a city. Two years ago, there was a "propositional composition" "I Love Paris" that many cultural celebrities participated in. (Also known as "Paris, I Love You", "Paris Love Songs"), is also a group drama, but each of its short stories is self-contained, and the styles become diversified due to the participation of many people, either weird or bizarre Either romantic or funny, unlike the realistic and abundant temperament presented in this movie.
Film director and screenwriter, Parisian Cedric Crappies, although he continues his usual group play approach-full of the feelings of French literary films, but also has a rich plot and seemingly "random" structure In the meantime, characters and events are intertwined and interspersed everywhere, and the main characters are also faced with their own life propositions. In the transition of scenes, they often disappear in one place, and then quickly appear in another place, thus speeding up the film. Rhythm. However, this time, Krapis’ "ambition" is obviously larger. He allows the camera to touch every corner and class of the city, and also touches the instantaneous life and death, and allows the plot and dialogue to travel between history and reality, upper and lower levels. , Men and women, desires and emotions, Paris and other provinces and the world, there are also various constitutional relationships among human society, such as siblings, brothers, lovers, teachers and students, friends, colleagues, and employment. At the same time, the scenes of the film are frequently changed. Rooms, markets, wholesale distribution centers, schools, cafes, bakeries, historical sites...These seemingly messy plots, characters, and scenes are drawn by the same city, and are complicated and tangled. Emotionally fettered, combined with an orderly rhythm and diverse images, there is a subtle and profound aura in the light and shadow.
Paris, like many international metropolises, has her unique tone and taste, and the Parisians in the lens are busy and anxious: single mother Alice (played by Juliet Binoche) raises three children alone. Recently, Her brother Pierre was found to have lost his heart function again, waiting to adapt to the emergence of the heart to make a transplant with only half the power; at the party, the dancer Pierre saw his peers fluttering, and he could not keep up with the pace. Can adjust his breathing to reduce the load on the heart; Roland, an old professor and bachelor, is eager to have a desire for young and beautiful student Laetia; Roland's younger brother, architect Philip, is waiting for the birth of his son, and he is rich and happy. He has doubts about his own life; busy small vendors have unsatisfactory lives and are suffering from emotional famine; models in the fashion capital have a splendid life like darlings, and indulgence seems to be another way to make up for it; The population keeps pouring into Paris, and stowaways are willing to take risks in order to come here...
The film brings together a large number of powerful French film circles. These people have been nominated for the Caesar Award 33 times in total. In the film, they completed their respective roles very well, which vividly brought Crapis’ observations, insights and even thoughts on Paris. In front of me, there is no lack of meticulous reproduction of the upper-level emptiness and the lower-level helplessness. Even the chatter and "fire-eyed golden eyes" of the citizens of Paris are so vivid...
Perhaps it is to highlight the charm of this city-self-confidence and elegance, some shots in the film The combination is composed of close-up character dialogue cut to the distant view, such as the after-light of the camera when Alice’s sister and brother communicated on the terrace, and the distant view of the Roland brothers when they talked about the historical changes of the window scene in Philip’s house. The end of the film is Pierre. The set of shots that Er took a taxi to the hospital was even better for Paris. The shots were first close-up, then far-sighted and overlooked. Then turned the camera around and aimed at the sick Pierre with red eyes in the car. I admire the passing scenery with a state of mind and posture I have never experienced before. In the process, he also saw the out-of-town girl in the bakery, the frustrated Roland who failed in "Early Spring", his favorite beautiful girl Laetiya and her boyfriend, and he even caught a glimpse of a smuggler holding a postcard of Paris to contrast the scenery. …
"This is Paris. No one is happy. We grumble against her and love her at the same time." This is Pierre's emotion. If it were not for a serious illness, perhaps he would not use such a passionate and nostalgic gaze. Gaze at everything you see along the way. The last set of shots is accompanied by a pleasing soundtrack, which breeds a melancholy and ingenious taste like Hou Xiaoxian's "The Journey of the Red Balloon", but there is only a trace.
