1. Streetlight close-up
2. Gun silhouette + gunshots, then the dead man who fell to the ground, without any cost
3. Where there are gangsters, there will always be editors
4. Standard classical Hollywood, like this kind of medium and close-up dialogue + close-up exposed to the crotch (at this time, the front and back hits are not used very much, is it not used very much or has not appeared?)
5. Over the shoulder, "Greed", playing both sides.
6. Paul Mooney's eyelashes and beckoning movements are classic and can be used to pay tribute.
At 7.15 minutes and 24 seconds, the first positive and negative hit appeared in the film, which seemed to emphasize the content of the speech.
8. Plot structure:
[1] The death of the great Louis serves as a prelude to explain the background, and also for the introduction of the protagonist Mooney (he even uses a waiter to lead the great Louis, layer by layer.)
[2] Mooney was called to the police station to investigate the death of Big Louis, and to explain his identity and occupation, which paved the way for his next meeting with the boss.
[3] Mooney and boss meet to discuss the turf war in the post-Louis era. (A female was added here to spice up the scene.)
9. Two fades out + three flashes of black, finally completed all the foreshadowing. (The last flashing black is the screen slowly appearing)
10. There are currently 2+6 [transitions]
11. Use ambiguous language to reveal the indecent relationship between siblings.
12. This one is quite amazing. Almost all of them use a hearty and fast narrative, without procrastination, strong buying and strong selling, and killing competitors, almost all in a few seconds. [There was no key play at first, and the last was the flipping of the calendar and the superposition of gunshots. Such a rapid establishment means that the key play is behind, and it also makes people feel that wealth comes easily and should go quickly. 】
13. It is probably the originator of the plot of liking the woman who is the boss. It seems that it is very easy for people to quickly empathize with a woman who has a higher status than herself.
14. It is really a master to teach the secretary to make phone calls with such warmth and character portrayal as the key point! This is too easy to empathize with. If the focus of the business is the focus, it will be difficult for the audience to empathize with the characters. Movies can be chosen arbitrarily, and the choice of masters is far stronger than that of ordinary directors.
15. The pioneering work of gangster crime has influenced almost all such films. [Can finally write "Once Upon a Time in America", the lifting of Prohibition (1922-1933), the gangster film lost its soil. ] 32 years, exactly the year before Prohibition was lifted. But in fact, the gangster film has not disappeared, and it still exudes brilliance now, but after World War II, anti-war has become a new theme, the new Hollywood.
16. Little Caesar 31.1
Public Enemy 31.4
The feature film can be regarded as the beginning of "Little Caesar", and the opening film should be "The Musketeer of Peggy's Lane".
17.44 April "Double Compensation"
"Under the Gaslight", May 1944
"Fugitive" only came in October 1944
Hitchcock's stuff in the 1930s, is it a suspense movie or a noir movie?
17. "Johnny called you here?" (Ferocious)
after being denied.
"Do you like this place?" (kindly)
18. Shadow strafing on the wall
19. The attitude of the media, the newspaper office at the beginning finally appeared here properly (when Carmenti killed the Quartet), there must be some characters appearing before, disappearing in the middle, and then suddenly appearing later.
20. The warm side of the characters: Camon asked one of his men to stay here, and he wanted to know the outcome of the play and who the girl chose in the end. He spends time and money, but forbids his sister to dance. (Protect her from letting her into this circle)
21. Classic dress, bow tie, suit, hat, corsage (The last bowling ball is down, symbolizing the last enemy is also eliminated.)
22. One smoke meets two fires
23. Send someone to call first, then show up at the place of the person being called, and judge from his expression whether he did it or not.
24. The younger brother who throws coins, the two-faced people in batman often do this. It seems that many gangsters also like tossing coins. [That coin seems to be the uncertainty of fate. 】
25. In the end, all love will die, some die by his hand, some die for him.
When the "fool" clutched his gunshot stomach and said, "Mr. Carmenti's secretary, your voice is too low, I can't hear you", his eyes were a little wet. [Things that are done when you are happy, and words you say, do the same when you are extremely sad (checkmate), the effect is booming, and you have caught the way to move people. ] And Tony has no mercy, just this one episode, Parma was blasted dozens of streets. (It was a premeditated plan by the police that Carmenti killed his own men.)
26. Gangs are different, the recovery of the economy, Hayes Code, led to the decline of gangster films.
27. I smoke downstairs. I want to quit smoking when I meet a passerby. I usually chat with strangers every day:
Me: "You can't quit smoking because something is missing in your life."
The passerby said neatly: "Lack of love."
28. A large number of police arrived outside the house, and Tony was alone in the house, which contrasted with the twilight of the hero.
29. "The world is yours", which appeared many times, finally gave a close-up.
