Children of men. When I watched it, I felt a little confused. I switched from Chinese subtitles to English subtitles, then to Chinese subtitles and then to English. I still haven't figured out some of the more detailed things. Of course, many technical men came to praise it before. Of course, the two long shots that are super-better than those of the camera are quite impressive, but after watching them, they are not particularly worth mentioning. Later, I deliberately watched the reversing section again. Why do I think it is also It's just that the lens is turned a few times and then turned out, and the focus is the traditional who speaks and the lens is aimed at whom. Finally, I deliberately discussed with Rollin. He taught me that this is not a bull in the design of a long lens, but a technical bull. I guess the camera must be parallel to one side of the car. As for keeping balance while turning, avoid it. I will not consider issues such as blind spots. Finally, the section where Theo found Kee in the ruins of the war and brought it out was still very well designed, very human, and very moved. In fact, the last time I saw a baby on the battlefield was in Dust, where it was actually more fierce. The heroine who had been shot gave birth to the blood of the head of the independent organization at the last moment of her life, and the birth of the baby was re-evoked. The people resisted the oppression of the warlords. Anyway, think about it, Children Of Men is really cute. It is the end of the world, the war, and the hope baby of mankind. The combination of these things is absolutely sensational. For this, even if I have to endure it in that type of film My headless fly-like desperate process, and the heroism + Hollywood routine of awakening humanity, I was finally touched.
I still think those two long shots are similar. Think about Renoir’s 39 years of "Rules of the Game". At the end, everyone in the big room is in a chaos and turns into battle. This long shot is still being talked about today. Most of the movies we have now 60 years later can still be called trash. Of course, I still have to mention the Russian Ark. That one shot (it is said that it is still a DV) shot to the end, from breaking into the palace to finally pulling it out, the scene dispatching in one go is simply amazing. Of course, many people think that such a shot is hype, but if you know the plot, you can understand why the director used one shot to shoot it to the end, or just like we evaluate Mulholland and the memory fragments, this can only be done like this.
In any case, I still have to support Children Of Men. At least when I saw countless refugees face their babies, they had forgotten the suffering and death. When the soldiers lay down their weapons, I also believed that hope would eventually overcome destruction and that life was greater than death. that's enough.
