Interlude + camera + role thinking

1. About the episode

The episode really surprised me. I wrote the scene and the title of the song here.

"Nightcall" is the opening song, the female voice part is shocking, and the dim light and shadow are really great, and the electronic music and the engine are also in harmony.

The song "A Real Hero" appeared twice, which is very interesting. The first time was when Commander Gao took the heroine and her son on the way to the shore to see the scenery at dusk, and the second time appeared at the end of the film. A real hero.

The husband of the heroine of "Under your spell" celebrated with a party at home after being released from prison. The background music for the party is this one.

"Oh my love" is the background music when Commander Gao found out that Shannon was killed. Hey.

2. Some lenses I like

This screenshot is because I really like the decoration color and style of the heroine’s home
The heroine who "escaped" the party
Commander High meets the heroine, and the heroine apologizes for being too noisy at the party
The light in the garage is so beautiful
After stepping on the headshot, this scorpion is great
Scary mask head
Use shadows to show the murder scene, I really like it

In the last one, I only took a picture, but you have to know that in the movie, this shot lasted for nearly 36 seconds in an exaggerated manner. This surprised me very, very much. It was a suspense. The director was confident enough to make it last so long.

And on the beach at night, I also like the part where the searchlights are shining back and forth.

3. Thinking about the role

I wrote before that if you want a character to be liked by the audience, you can't destroy the audience's identity. Now I further believe that on the basis of conforming to the identity, it would be better if it could be a little greater than the audience.

For example, the commander high in the film, although he fell in love with a married woman, his behavior is not annoying, on the contrary, it makes people feel warm and tragic. This is where this role is particularly successful.

Drive quotes

  • [first lines]

    Driver: [on phone] There's a hundred-thousand streets in this city. You don't need to know the route. You give me a time and a place, I give you a five minute window. Anything happens in that five minutes and I'm yours. No matter what. Anything happens a minute either side of that and you're on your own. Do you understand?

    [pause]

    Driver: Good. And you won't be able to reach me on this phone again.

  • Shannon: [to Driver] A lot of guys mess around with married women, but you're the only one I know who robs a joint just to pay back the husband. Crazy.
