A book gives you a strong and intuitive feeling, making you feel that the characters and plot are right in front of you, so you think "Ah, this should be made into a movie", and after seeing the remake, you feel that something is missing, so it's a pity I thought, "It's still a good book."
This feeling as oppressive as the movie plot itself has been haunting me all the time |||
Vigo's performance is as serious as ever, and the whole person is a torn out feeling from beginning to end. He faithfully recreates a weary and exhausted man who has only his son as his only father. Whether it's shooting at the kidnapper, remembering the child's mother, throwing the purse with the mother's photo off the bridge and placing the wedding ring on the bridge railing is infectious and expressive.
But Ke Lin's performance... Although I can't say it's bad... It's far from my preconceived impression. In the original book, the father and son represent the inheritance, and the child in this end time, or at least in the eyes of the father, appears as a religiously pure, benevolent, weak and sad but hopeful image. After his father killed the man who hijacked him, he repeatedly confirmed with his father "we are still the good guy, are we?", he wanted to help the old man he met, and he punished his father for those who stole their things Behaving instinctively with fear, it's human nature manifested in the actions of a child. But little Colin has a face that's almost rebellious adolescence (although it's eerily similar to Charlize Theron)... Together with the King of Gondor, this kid looks like a sissy...
Charlize .Theron's mother was completely lost by passers-by. In addition to the constant weeping she showed in the film, should this character also add the feeling of being on the verge of collapse in "The Devil"?
Finally, regarding the plot of the film, the director tries to reproduce the scenes depicted in the book, the language of the characters in the book, and the relationship between the characters in the book. He did this. We see the dusty roads, the dark sky, and the gray sea depicted in the book, the cellars where the CANNIBALs keep people, the place where the father and son hide their food when they are about to despair... But I always feel that something is missing: we can't experience the madness, heaviness, and depression of a desperate situation like the characters, and we can't appreciate the joy of being in a paradise for a while. The original author is composed of short sentences, fully mobilizing all kinds of senses, Hemingway-style abundant and powerful description, coming into the film has become a feeling that people constantly feel that there is something in their hearts but can't release it... Perhaps this is is the difference between text and image gives the feeling can not be changed, and perhaps this is the same film title bar does not end the process ||| only way
this book is too difficult to change the movie, play to play, but commercial 2012 and AVATAR, not any deep play No Country for Old Men has such a plot, in this case, the director's efforts should be said to be successful - many people who haven't read the original book also like it, which proves this.
In any case, seeing the mother who appeared last hugged the child and said, "I don't worry about anything now," my heart still moved.
Go your own way, let others have no way to go.
