We are crazy

Recently I was learning ron howard's director class. It was mentioned that the key to a movie lies in a few big moments, and the rest of the movie should be devoted to how to build up to those moments.

So I apply what I have learned (or mechanically) to the clown I have seen recently. What are the big moments in this movie? Is the live broadcast headshot the comedian that he has always admired? Or was revenge exploded when a few wealthy children bullied themselves like the street children at the beginning of the movie? Are you slashing a friend who once betrayed you? Or is it to suffocate the mother who has been caring for her but concealed her abuse on the sickbed?

If this is the case, then this movie can only follow

One level.

When Gary hid in the corner and witnessed the clown killing Randall, he and the audience knew that he was the next one to die. When Gary passed by the clown, he heard the nervous breathing of the audience behind. When Gary tried his best and couldn't reach the anti-hotlinking, I couldn't help but marvel that the clown had already calculated everything. When the clown got up and walked towards the helpless Gary, the girl next to me couldn't help covering her eyes.

Then, the clown removed the anti-hotlink and said to Gary, you're the only one that's ever been nice to me, kissed Gary's forehead and opened the door for him.

The clown said, right or wrong is yours. Normal is not normal, madness is not madness, it must be our decision. If the clown is a lunatic, he is a murderous madman. As normal gentlemen who don't kill, will we let go of a murder witness?

There was not even a word of exhortation, a word of threat, or a word of promise. Gary and the clown are not very ironic. But the clown didn't even think that Gary would call the police as soon as he went out, and confessed in court. All the clown thinks is that Gary is a good person, the only one who treats me well, he shouldn't die.

Envy is as easy as hatred, but love and hatred are clearly difficult. True justice is not to kill the rich, kill the traitors, kill the people who betray me, kill the people who laugh at me. It's that I and him are just general friends. I laughed when I heard him play mini golf as golf, but when I was most irrational, I knew and remembered that he treated me even the slightest good. I was piercing Randall's eyes one second before, and the next second I told Gary not to look at the blood. He just smashed Randall's head to the wall, and then he apologized to Gary for forgetting the anti-theft chain.

If you call this a lunatic.

    Joaquin’s clowns are certainly wonderful, but from the director’s disbelief that clowns can be born from the chemical pool, it can be seen that he does not believe in images very much, so he had to engage in psychological realism mumbo jumbo, but in the end it was still Only a large number of stacked stereotypes can be used to create conflicts to promote the story.

    Excited check-in after watching the world premiere! Full score for plot rhythm, full score for connotative thinking, full score for artistic drama, full score for character creation. All the Oscar awards are not too much for it, because this film is an epoch-making announcement that the era of superheroes is over.
