Probably everyone who likes John Woo and To Qifeng knows that they are deeply influenced by Melville. The legend is to pay tribute to this Great Dawn, but apart from the relationship between the characters of two men, one woman, one good and one evil, the others are really a little side. It's not reliable, but I can see a lot of Melville's tactics. The lines are always so few that you can play silence on a phone call. He likes to use tasks and shots to show the plot. This kind of plot is more tense and expressive because it is not about The audience instills but lets the audience observe the small climax of the film. The bank robbery at the beginning and the train stealing drugs in the middle are without exception. There is no line processing, but the people who watch it are thrilling. It is a tension that is difficult to create for many years after that. Atmosphere as a textbook is not too much a consistent masculine complex, whether it's informing accomplices of bad news or suicide, or the last two finally confronting each other, Melville's gangster movie or gangster movie never cares whether it's good or bad, as long as you're a man, you're worthy of respect. He treats men with respect. The preference for friendship has led to his films' depictions of women and love are always indifferent or even ignored. This has a great impact on both John To and John Woo. You can see from To Qifeng's too many films that he has a lot to do with Lao Mei. The tribute of this kind of thought goes from gunfire to exile, from dark war to dark flower. There is no justice and evil, only respect and worship. Maybe the performance of this big dawn is not the strongest. Personally, I think the best of Lao Mei is the red circle. Although the ending is very bleak, it can It touches every man's heart. Several of
Melville 's favorite scenes also appear in this film. The train and the high-end club also appear in this film. The director has some hobbies to add some personal imprint to his films, just like Hitchcock Jiang Wen must have a male protagonist surnamed Ma, so remember to be famous, you must have an unchanging strange mark
