Opening scene. At the beginning of the movie, it was a slow advancing shot, matched with the sounds of nature's birds, it appeared quiet and calm, and then a figure flashed by. This series of techniques will easily arouse the audience's curiosity. Obviously, this is the tranquility before the storm. Sure enough, as the camera got closer and closer, a wild boar sprang out, and then the camera moved faster, and with the faster editing, the previous calm was broken. It turned out that a group of wild men were hunting. This static and dynamic treatment should be enough to attract the audience to look down.
Then they successfully hunted the wild boar and started to play with their companions, because one companion seemed to be unable to do that, so everyone fooled him and said that the animal's testicles can enhance sexual function. When they returned to the tribe, the movie continued to tease the partner with sexual dysfunction (actually I don't think it was), but was ridiculed again. The pepper was used as Viagra. As a result, men washed their genitals and women washed their mouths. (I think I don't need to explain here to know what they are doing). These two scenes have added a lot of attention to the movie and brought the audience closer to the movie. It feels like they are not savages, but are "civilized people" like us. They will also make jokes and spoofs. , Will also use the companions to start a shabu, which will further attract the audience to look down.
My favorite is that chase scene, which is also the climax of the film. The director here uses different techniques to express the contrast between the strengths of the two sides. Most of the shots of the male lead are followed and shaken, while the chasing people are mostly panoramic fixed shots and fast editing. The strong and the weak are clear at a glance. The protagonist has a halo, which is useless), which also indicates that there will be a wonderful contest. The emergence and resolution of crises along the way were clean. The protagonist also solved the chasers (actually the last two were scared)
If the movie ended in this way, it would be just an ordinary action movie. But Mel Gibson obviously didn't want to rush like this. The movie used a lot of space to show the violent conflicts of the Native Americans, but in the end, when they ran to the beach, they saw the European colonists. At that time, they felt as if they were blown up, and they felt empowered. The real massacre has just begun, and another group of more fierce savages are coming...and we can't help thinking: When will the next group of "barbarians" come? When will the next batch come?
The decline and replacement of civilization is accompanied by sharp pains, just like female childbirth. Every October 12th is the United States’ "Columbus Day." When whites celebrate this historic moment, they are strongly opposed by Indians and blacks. Therefore, it has become one of the most controversial holidays in the United States. . It seems that the only way to eliminate this kind of severe pain is to replace it with another kind of severe pain! Each of us must be prepared like this...
