out of control

The cannon at the beginning of the film that constantly walks and moves by itself and the slow motion of the two men jumping on both sides of the cannon is very easy to think of the metaphor of male genitalia, and also makes me wonder if Claire is an Arsenal fan... .The disordered pictures in the film are quickly cut to make people feel dizzy. The ballerina wearing a white dress dances continuously. The camera is shot from the bottom of the woman's skirt. Obviously, the ballerina is stepping on a piece of glass. Dancing, the "rogue" perspective that Claire uses is repeated over and over, with other overlapping images, such as that of a paper boat hovering over the roof. A huge bird's egg danced in the fountain's water column, and the man took aim and shot with a shotgun. The first half of the film is very different from the second half in terms of narrative. The disorder in the first half has a clear main line in the second half, that is, the hearse pulled by the camel gallops at high speed, and the out-of-control hearse rushes all the way. , everyone was chasing behind, and everyone even used slow motion when chasing, a lot of subjective perspectives with cars as the first person to show the scenery along the road, and even the perspective pictures of the roller coaster track, the faster you go back, the faster you cut the picture. And the rhythm makes the sense of loss of control escalate step by step until the coffin finally falls. The magician who crawled out of the coffin like a vampire will make everyone who came to disappear one by one, and finally make himself invisible until the end of the movie. The whole film does not have a clear and logical narrative and main line. This out-of-control anti-logical and anti-narrative pioneer image shows the artistic value of screen cutting and rhythm in a state where it cannot be interpreted, and the hearse scene in the second half is perfect. The performance of how to use the montage of changes in the rhythm to create mood, to create the unique drama of the film.
