The university entered the film temple, and I talked about movies every day. It was so beautiful.
After graduating, I went to Jiaheng once, and once again talked about the best works I watched recently. Jiaheng said: It is necessary to find someone to talk about the movie regularly.
I think yes, this will prove that I am still alive. It has come to this day. If you want to go to hell to make a movie, then I am obliged to go down and take a seat for my brother.
It is because I am in the movie world every day, watching movies, making movies, and I no longer write film reviews.
The first time I learned about "The Dark Knight" was when he was in teacher Yang Chao's film and television drama writing class in 2008. Teacher Yang asked: Did Batman watch it all?
No one in the class had seen it at that time, and Director Yang asked: Why didn't you watch it?
I thought to myself, why should I go to see it?
Then Feng Yuan bought a pirated DVD, and I watched it once in bed. I was too sleepy. I just remember that the clown played well. And just after the winter vacation, I received a QQ message from Feng Yuan: "You download "The Dark Knight" and read it again. The translation of my fucking subtitles on that plate is all wrong."
I reluctantly again. I watched it once, this time, plus the six times in the next few years, all of which shocked me!
Back to school, I let the entire director department know that the Dark Knight is our compulsory course! What the hell is "Lover under the Olive Tree", "Blessing", "Ulysses' Life Journey"! lame.
I can admit that at the time, saying that I liked "The Dark Knight" was not enough to pretend. A director actually likes such a commercial film.
After all these years, if you say that you like "The Dark Knight" and be discriminated against by others in the communication, that other person will definitely be said to be lonely and unheard of.
Because the Batman series has always been despised, the most mediocre Superman movie, but Nolan has changed everything.
Let's analyze the film briefly.
Every hero movie must have a villain, and often in order to have a wonderful plot, this villain must be set to be more powerful, and it can even defeat the protagonist. And this defeat, recall the design of the previous hero movie. In "Spider-Man", "Iron Man", etc., the villains are often more powerful and equipped. And the righteous power represented by the protagonist is slightly weaker, and finally the blood from nowhere suddenly defeats the opponent.
Look at "The Dark Knight" again, the Joker has nothing, power, weapons, money, all are far from Batman.
And we must admit that this is the most powerful villain among all heroic movies in history!
We can slowly answer the reason. What does the Joker rely on against Batman?
In the past, heroes represented justice and villains represented evil. This clearly shows the gap. In this classic confrontation mode, evil can never defeat justice, because this is common sense that we all know. Therefore, in this case, even if the villain is strong enough to defeat the protagonist, it is far-fetched, because he has already lost in terms of role positioning.
The Joker also represents evil, but at the same time, the Joker has a view that the previous hero movies did not have. This view almost defeated Batman.
The clown represents evil, but he believes that every well-dressed person has evil in his heart. It only needs a gentle push from one person to push the evil out.
The Joker is showing his point of view like the world, showing it to the citizens, showing it to Batman. Although Batman has always represented justice, in the constant confirmation of the clown, the power of justice is constantly weakened, and the audience will feel that the clown's point of view is not unreasonable. Even the position will be shaken. This is the real opponent! I don't dispute with you on strength, but I have a more complete point of view and a more mature system. You can hit me. Not only will I not fight back, but I will also laugh at you. You can only vent your anger with a few fists.
Therefore, the role of Harvey Dent is set up, he represents the angel of justice among normal people, because Batman always lives in the dark, there is no visible person, but there must be such a person, living in the light, leading Give the citizens hope. Harvey Dunn is very accurate, young and handsome, full of sense of justice, and a judge who punishes evil. Therefore, the goal of the Joker is also locked on this person, and Batman is just an accessory.
Because the clown can tell the world: if even the incarnation of justice in their minds (Harvey Dent) is evilized by him, then his view can be confirmed.
When the film was about one hour and thirty minutes, after a wonderful car chase, she relied on Sheriff Gordon’s suspended animation, Harvey Dent as a bait, caught the clown, and completed a normal commercial film routine. So it won’t be too much drooling.
But an optimal drama mode must have two small climaxes, like two humps, but the second one is much higher than the first.
Thus, the second climax followed. This is a design that surprised everyone. The clown was caught and sent to jail was only part of his strategy, and everyone was under the control of the clown's plan, not bad at all. The IQ of Joker far exceeds that of Batman.
The clown successfully forced the darkness of Harvey Dent out (the process is omitted), and the process is reasonable and flawless.
The Joker won, his view was successful, and Batman relied on sacrificing his life, pushing Harvey Dent’s evil deeds to himself, making people continue to believe in Harvey Dent, and rejecting the bat. Man (so the third Batman has been out of the arena for eight years). Relying on this method, people's inner yearning for beauty is maintained.
The film has always been dark, and the director needs to design a hope for the audience, even if it is dark, there is hope (see the oil tanker plot for details). This hope is precious. Even if the director took away all the good things from the audience, he was desperate to the extreme in the second half. At this time, a concoction is needed. This concoction chooses hope, just right! (Hope is beautiful, and perhaps the most beautiful thing in the world.-"Shawshank Redemption") In the
freshman year Dai Jinhua's lecture, Dai Jinhua said that commercial and art films will always be separated, from the copper smell contained in movies It can be seen in the birth system of flavor that commercial films and art films are two kinds of production lines.
At that time, I was very frustrated, and I asked Dai Jinhua to argue. In Teacher Yang Chao's class the next day, he raised this question with Teacher Yang and gave the example of "The Godfather" with Teacher Yang. I think it is a combination of both. Teacher Yang was perplexed at the time, saying that "The Godfather" seemed to be a freak indeed. Said that if you proposed to Dai Jinhua yesterday as a godfather, she might also be asked and think about it for a while.
By the time "The Dark Knight" appeared, it marked that the boundary between commercial film and art film had been completely opened! Art films can also be made extremely beautiful. Art films do not have to be made into sleepy films. They are not in conflict with commercial elements at all. Directors who think that the film is very artistic can go to hell. Art films are not synonymous with ugly, just because people couldn't make them look good in the past, and there is no such a movie to do both. History has proved that we can always do better. "The Dark Knight" is a testimony.
Thank you for the five years that this movie has brought to me, allowing me to recognize and confirm my definition of movie in my mind.
At that time, all the friends and topics who were arguing with me about business and art films until the Dark Knight disappeared.
