It's shocking to watch! The characters in the film have many features that are consistent with real historical figures, and the portrayal is meticulous. Not to mention the appearance, I really have to praise a wave of makeup artists; demeanor? Gary Oldman's acting skills are all online! ! Possibly the Oscars! The shape is similar and the spirit is similar, and the degree of reduction is relatively high.
Tobacco and alcohol are the sexual characteristics of Churchill's most symbolic words, and the director happens to use these two to participate in the narrative. Tobacco and alcohol appear many times in the dialogue. "The wife who was sorting the bills complained that she had no money, and Churchill coaxed that she would only smoke four sticks a day in the future." This detail explains two points. One is his relationship with his wife, who love and support each other, so as to help the latter wife when she needs help the most. The British royal family was hired as a foreshadowing, and the second is that the number "four" itself has exceeded the number of cigars that ordinary people can eat in a day. Only when it cannot be relieved will it become dependent on it, which shows that Churchill was suffocated by the high pressure environment at that time! Furthermore, the tobacco and alcohol in the back is followed by the pressure of the party that is "forced" to make peace and the suppression of Germany outside the party, the embarrassment of being isolated and helpless, but at the same time, he is not willing to bow his head! It lays the groundwork for its subsequent choices, which creates a good sense of tense atmosphere. Cigarettes also appeared in the subway talks, and the characters were labeled with personalized labels. At the same time, the act of "borrowing matches" made him appear more close to the people and delicate.
The characters in the film are delicately portrayed. In addition to the external details such as tobacco and alcohol, there are also details such as "laughing with the secretary for the wrong gesture symbols", which depicts the other side of the politician, the most humane side, which is a good foreshadowing. The ultimate direction and fate of the characters.
There is no doubt about the language of film shots. The director is very good at filming and knows how to create a tense atmosphere. The cramped and cramped wartime headquarters is accompanied by tight-rhythm music in this infinitely oppressive space environment! The language of the shot, which is more favorable than any close-up, fits perfectly into the narrative. Many times the sound is a sound source, and relatively small sounds such as the sound of tapping the stool with your fingers are consciously amplified, as if you are in it. The matching shots are mostly close-ups, creating an invisible sense of tension! Compared with the visual shock, it is more of an auditory horror. The picture composition is beautiful! The tone fully matches the word "dark", and the tone and the story blend in perfectly! For the screen, madly hit the call.
The most impressive one shot to the end is from the rear command to the front command. From the behind-the-scenes political spiritual battlefield to the flesh-and-blood battlefield ahead, it is equally shocking. Ending at the last pair of bloodshot eyes, it is an infinite reflection and inquiry about the war.
In terms of the theme, it is still quite popular, but it is true that the storytelling and the language of the camera can make people feel sorry for Churchill unconsciously, and let the audience bring the character into the role. It is still a great movie for those who like history, but for those who lack interest in history, the movie is relatively friendly and understandable. In addition to the shocking details of the screen technology, the film also has 600 people shooting in real scenes, abandoning the realism of CG technology. In addition, there is more power to shake people's hearts.
