I was bored in class and wrote a drama review. Directed by Nicholas Winding Refn, he shot both "Desperados" and "Neon Demon." His personal style is very obvious, belonging to half the filmmaker, because not all the script is written by him alone. I really like the style he's obsessed with, neon, slow, close-ups, long takes, messy, what a good thing. This is a postmodern black urban story, full of bloody violence, soft porn, family, religion and other themes, showing the bizarre and modern Los Angeles urban scene, but with a layer of obvious filters. Crime is very harmonious with the night, but it is out of tune with the sun. Los Angeles continues to be a magical and fertile ground for American mythology. This land, this crystal city, has inspired countless imaginations and dreams. The American people have dreamed here since ancient times, broken dreams, and then pieced together broken dreams... Elements of the story I also really like the 30-year-old violent cop who falls in love with a 16-year-old schoolgirl whose father is a rich man with all kinds of eccentricities named Jesus (Jesus in English, Hex in Spanish). Seuss) Mexican criminals became the godfather of a crime family, with whom he was united with the Priestess of Death in some Mexican religion, a mythical figure with superhuman abilities, and Diana, a psychic officer dedicated to giving Justice is brought to the victim's family, and she is working with a disease-ridden former FBI agent who wants to accumulate money in the final years of his life to give back to his mother. The story is messy, but nice. It's a hodgepodge, multicultural, kind of like a Reservoir Dog and Pulp Fiction. But the rhythm of the story is stifling, the footage is terribly slow, the insomniacs get sleepy too, every conversation drags on for more than 10 seconds, and it takes 10 minutes to finish speaking in one minute. long pauses. Therefore, this show has a strong screening for the audience. Many viewers can't make it through the first episode, and most people can't get used to this style. Therefore, the people who can really watch it are the people who the director hopes to watch it. The director hopes that the audience who adapt to fast-paced and mindless movies should stay away from the show. He has very strict rules about who the show is for Control, filter out those viewers who only deserve to watch "Game of Thrones", so that they don't waste time and don't insult this well-made rare and precious American drama. This is a manga-modified drama, and many people will say that you can tell by looking at the color, but the color of Refn's previous works is also like this, but it is not a comic-modified movie, the director is just fine. Last but not least, I like the role of the priestess of the god of death. It seems to be the most mysterious and attractive among many elements. One of people, feminism, a word that has been used by countless idiots. The priestess represents the awakening of women. She uses extreme violence to rescue other poor women from the hands of the dominant males in the patriarchal society, and uses violence to cut a bloody path. Her songs are very nice, but I wonder if this character has any historical and cultural background in Mexico.
