The charm of both righteous and evil

The greatest charm of Hannibal is that you never know whether he is a devil or an angel. When you want to hate him, he is as gentle as such a gentleman. When you are infatuated with him, he is so cruel.
The first part is by far the most classic of the Silent Lambs series, because he involved Stalin's own psychological defects. In fact, Starling, like Bill Buffalo, grew up because of childhood shadows and left behind some related behaviors. Very exciting.
The second story is the best. More thrilling, more exciting. The most touching thing is that Hannibal chopped off his hand to replace Starling. Of course, the section that cuts his head is disgusting.
The third Red Dragon is really a failure.
It is said that the fourth film has also been filmed, and Gong Li is also starring. Hope it will be wonderful.

    This film leads to the intersection of the heroine Clarice and Hannibal through a series of vicious murders. However, it is ridiculous that to solve this series of murders, it is necessary to pass a mentally problematic psychiatrist with more terrible crimes. Isn’t it ironic? And the film’s narration and the use of the lens are really pleasing to the eye. The use of the long lens makes the whole movie a sense of fear and mystery.

    [A] How to control the power of "close-up"? Every meeting between Clarice and Hannibal is accompanied by a large number of graceful close-up shots, repulsive, temptation, identification, and even true heart-to-heart. The close-up shots exist as a perfect transition medium. Especially in the last meeting at the museum, the camera was isolated from the inside and outside of the cage, and then gradually passed through the cage, stuck in the surging emotional communication between the two, and finally stayed on the close-up of physical contact, and the paragraph was sublimated in the temporary stay. Close-ups are not only a means of enhancing the performance of the lens, but also a representative of the line of sight: there are many shots of Clarice surrounded by the "male perspective" in the film, and Clarice as an individual is weak in the encirclement of male groups; In the dialogue with Hannibal, the feature exists as a symbol of equality, constructing a peer-to-peer line of sight communication system. Hannibal's close-ups are undoubtedly more tense and always dominate. Under the superb performance, the devil gave instructions to the Lamb to stop being silent and guide him to break the barrier of male gaze.
