"Forrest Gump" used a scene from the beginning: in the blue sky, a feather fluttered with the wind, drifting across the city where Forrest Gump lived, and then fell down with the wind, and then was blown to the sky again by the wind. . After the ups and downs in the air, it finally falls at the feet of the protagonist of the story. This is the director's description of feathers dancing in the wind with a long lens. What is left to the audience is the endless imagination of feathers, which paves the way for the development of the storyline. As the feathers fell, the camera showed a close-up of Forrest Gump's muddy and worn sneakers, and replaced the director with a close-up to express his emotions, implying that the shoes will be used as a factor to promote the development of the plot. A major feature of the film is that the arrival of the bus is used many times to connect different passengers. These passengers are the audience of Forrest Gump, which connects different storylines as the audience changes. This is the use of relevance montage, and each time the bus arrives, it is a manifestation of repeated montage, because it is a scene of a bus that reappears, emphasizing a specific message that the director wants to convey, strengthening the theme of the film . Another big feature is the use of simultaneous montage. The film has two clues. One main line describes A-Gump’s life from the difficulty of studying for an IQ child to going to university and achieving many successes to joining the army and then participating in the Vietnam War with outstanding performance and finally to retirement. At the same time, another clue is describing Jenny's life that she wandered and wandered on her own in order to gain honor and fame and patience to leave Forrest Gump. Although most of these two clues occurred in different spaces, due to the director's continuous switching of the shots, they presented interrelated narrative paragraphs in the narrative, and they were cross-cut together to create an associative atmosphere and imagination. Infinite space. When describing the two clues, I used the contrast montage in the structural montage. Although A-Gump experienced many misfortunes and difficulties in his life, such as the rigorous training of the army and the test of life and death during the Vietnam War, his life was fairly smooth. It seems that God is helping him, and every time he encounters difficulties, his beliefs and perseverances help him out of trouble, and ultimately help him succeed. On the other hand, Jenny has not been favored by God in her life. For example, she wants to become a famous singer, but she has suffered waves of shocks for her simple ideas. The director compares their fortunes, allowing the audience to experience the magical colors of Forrest's life, and at the same time, they can experience the strange phenomenon of American society from the side. The plot of the film's story also runs through many detailed contrast montages. For example, when A-Gump was running tirelessly for no reason, he suddenly discovered that the unity of the sky cannot tell where is the sky and where is the earth. And when A-Gump recalled the march of the Vietnam War, when the rain was torrential, suddenly the Dragon King of the East China Sea issued the imperial decree of stopping the rain, and the sun was shining immediately and so on. The rhythm and rhythm of the shot editing of this film can strongly stimulate the emotions of the audience. For example, when the plot developed to the Vietnam War, the story about Lieutenant Dan was inserted. He commanded the soldier and combat division to be seriously injured and was rescued by A-Gump. His leg was amputated and complained about A-Gump’s rescue and thus lost the meaning of life. Always thinking that he was a waste and useless, he began to waste time in decadence. These plots about Lieutenant Dan seem to be irrelevant to the theme of A-Gump’s life, but they are cleverly interspersed together. In order to fulfill the wish of his good friend Babu, A-Gump bought a shrimp boat and engaged in shrimp fishing. In the industry, Lieutenant Dan unexpectedly appeared at the dock. At this time, the audience thought that Lieutenant Dan would continue to sink into decadence, but when he saw Dan's figure, he could feel that his life was also beginning to change. In addition, the film is constantly inserting realistic shots in certain details, such as the assassination of President Lincoln and President Nixon's announcement of the escalation of the Vietnam War. These realistic shots make the film present the inherently ambiguous and ambiguous attributes in reality, and give the audience the opportunity to actively participate in the choice of meaning. The realistic lens makes the audience feel that Forrest Gump's life may happen to ordinary people at any time, so they believe that Forrest Gump's life is real. In the film, Forrest Gump is a person with low intelligence, but every plot of the story reflects his intrinsic kindness and simplicity. It can be seen that Forrest Gump is a man of temperament who knows how to love. These two aspects are expressed The gap is cleverly conveyed to every audience through the editing of the lens. At the same time, the director gave A-Gump a self-narrative shot. The whole film is A-Gump's memoir for most of his life. His own narration is used as the narration, not only in his narration, but also in his interaction with Jenny, when he misses Jenny. , In the interaction with Lieutenant Dan, when he used his kindness and simplicity to influence Lieutenant Dan, and even in his unprovoked running, he discovered some lessons and principles from him and Lieutenant Dan. When inserting the shots of Jenny and Lieutenant Dan, or telling their rough fate, through contrast, the audience is emotionally connected with the character’s situation. As Jenny’s encounters and separations with Forrest Gump are sad. Lost with Dan's decadence, and saddened by Jane's drug use. The director is nothing more than comparing the fate of A-Gump and Jenny, and telling the audience a philosophy through the changes of Lieutenant Dan’s fate: Human destiny is in his own hands, and we must rely on our own struggle to create destiny, even if we have various defects. Suffering all kinds of misfortunes and disasters, but as long as you can strengthen a belief, you can create miracles. I believe that the audience can appreciate the philosophies along with the ups and downs of Forrest, Jenny, and Lieutenant Dan! It can be seen that the artistic connotation of the creation of this film is very deep, whether it is the development of the story and the shock of its expression, or the lens processing during the production, it is quite clever. No wonder so many people like this film and get So many Oscars are well deserved! Many times, like A-Gump, we can’t find a reason to do something. Many times we are far behind A-Gump. Things that we don’t know why we do are always abandoned halfway very easily. Human life is often like this, just like the white feathers floating in the wind in the beginning and end of the film. Most of the time, we may be drifting with the flow. This kind of floating has no specific direction and is so plain that it is tiresome. However, one move and one turn can still be controlled by yourself. You only have to do your best to make it perfect, and don’t care about how much you get. Then, you can fly higher and higher, and you will find that the higher you are The place, the closer to heaven, So I believe that Forrest Gump's success is not accidental. A-Gump has a lot of his own theories. He tells his legend on a bench by the roadside and on the road where he doesn't know each other. He adds three words before each theory: Mom said. ----Mom said, life is like chocolate, you never know what you will taste. ---- Mom said, you must understand that you are the same as the people around you, and you are no different from them, no. ---- Mom said, I just told myself that when I do something, I will try my best to do it well. For example, when I have been your mother in my life, this is something I cannot choose. God will You gave me, my child, and I must try my best to be your mother, and I did it. A-Gump is a very obedient child. He remembered all these words. He said that stupid people do what stupid people do. When Jenny told him to run, he stumbled and ran away, ran away the first pair of magical shoes in his memory, and discovered his first potential: running. He has been running, at first he ran away, then he ran into the football team, and then into the university, ran to a degree. On the battlefield of the Vietnam War, he still remembered Jenny's words and ran back to his own life, as well as honor and friendship. You have to admit that, in fact, the success of many things is due to accidental factors. It will not get closer to the end due to your deliberation, but will give you the most appropriate reward for your efforts when you inadvertently. He is loyal, so when he was alone out of danger during the Vietnam War, he still ran back to the jungle to find his comrades in arms. He kept his word. He promised his comrades to buy a shrimp boat. But when his comrades died, he fulfilled his last wish for him in the incredible eyes of others, and he also won huge wealth for himself. He is persistent, so he will run for three years after Jenny’s departure, traveling across the United States, and never stop. He tells you that he just wants to run. He uses running to measure life. This does not require peace and freedom or anything grand-sounding. For the reason. He is friendly. After he saved the life of the lieutenant, the lieutenant who lost his legs has always been ashamed and angry that he could not die on the battlefield but still crippled his life with a crippled body, because the lieutenant is such a person: He regarded honor above all else. He couldn't stand the ordinary. It was A-Gump who used his kindness to call back his confidence in life, so that he found that even without legs, life can still be full of vitality. A-Gump has no lofty ideals, he has lost a lot. He has very few friends. He is always laughed at by smart people. His favorite mother and Jenny have left him... but he is not for him because So sinking, love is still continuing, he has his own child, a smart little Forrest, his life is still going on, he is not smart, but he always knows how to make life full of hope. So he won honor, wealth and love, things that ordinary people may never have both. Why is this movie so popular? Although Forrest Gump’s IQ is only 75, we see loyalty, trustworthiness, perseverance, and friendliness among the most shining, outstanding and precious qualities of humanity. Perseverance, hope for life, firmness in faith. Ordinary life, extraordinary life. When we are old, looking back, if you can regret everything yesterday, then you have already had a very successful life .
