Who said "Young people don't know the taste of sadness, but they say sadness in order to create new words", look at Alex when he encounters this kind of thing, which old man would think that this kind of youth is just as simple as fighting all day long, picking up girls, and falling out of love.
Because the photographers of "paranoid park" and "elephant" are different, this time I found Du Kefeng (Mr. Du also made a cameo in the film). The sound effects and shooting methods of the film make the moviegoers become Alex, and they can see him clearly. Want to see, hear what he hears clearly. The slow motion and the sound of the flickering near and far, Alex's handsome face with no moody expressions, the same fragmentary editing as the elephant, the thick graininess and tones of the film, make people feel psychedelic after taking drugs.
Like Gus van sant's usual characters, Alex has a numb and cold face, and his thoughts are surging in a seemingly calm way. The shaking and noise caused by skateboarding are the outlet for the turbulent heart. Parents who are about to divorce, younger brother who is always nervous, and girlfriend who has no brains; whose parents are not divorced, younger brother can't bear the pressure of quarrel, Alex hopes to like Jenifer or at least have a common topic; numbness is actually the same as everyone.
Alex runs away in a panic after a manslaughter (just Cause might be more appropriate), throwing away the skateboard, like you and I make a mistake, there are a lot of little people chattering in their heads. This is a very good part of the movie, and the soundtrack is also appropriate, escaping and running, and finally choosing silence. It is always said that if it does not erupt in silence, it will perish in silence. When Alex was taking a shower, his head was like a thousand birds chirping, or a shrill sound of brain waves, like a sharp sound of a knife slicing through glass. Maybe it is because it is broken glass that the colorful light can be reflected, macy: "the important is to write it down, you can save, send, born; 'you can write to me." The secret has an outlet, and it is burning the secret How long will Alex's carefree youth last?
I think that Macy riding a bicycle and pulling alex skateboard is the warmest scene in the film. There is sunshine behind the two people.
At the end of the film, there are still a group of children playing skateboards, including alex, even if there is an exit for the secret, the memory may not have an exit. I hope youth is still beautiful.
Ps: The soundtrack of the movie is very good. The only soundtrack I've heard this year is "paranoid park" besides "juno". Fellini's film soundtrack also grabbed for use?
