What is the style of Giuseppe Tonadore in "Cinema Paradiso"?

He has seen both "Paradise Cinema" and "Sea Pianist", and more than three times. Best bids seen in his other films. I feel that his filmmaking style is very calm and sophisticated. At first glance, it may even be a bit boring. If you don't have a lot of concentration, you may not even be able to watch it, but the more you watch it, the more interesting it is. Very composed, especially "Paradise Cinema" and "Sea Pianist". His films do not rely on special effects to attract people's attention, but rely on pure plots, soundtracks, and actors' performances and the use of many good shots to mobilize emotions. I was particularly impressed by a scene in "Paradise Cinema", where Duoduo sent Alfred's coffin to each other and walked to the door of the old cinema with a smile on his face. When I saw the dilapidated old movie theater, the expression on my face seemed to freeze, but I could still see the slow gradient of the expression on my face, from shock to disappointment. I remember that there was a soundtrack in that scene, and I was very tearful when I watched it. Of course, a large part of this shot is due to Jacques Behan's performance skills, which is really profound, and it is no wonder that he can shoot such a grand and delicate world trilogy in the future. Of course, the whole funeral process is very delicate, and I personally like it very much. The narrative style is also very calm, the ups and downs are not very large, and there are not many reversals. It is basically a straightforward narrative, but after watching it many times, you can feel the power of the movie as an art, rather than watching it like many movies and feel boring. . In short, he is a director who is very good at telling stories. He tells very simple stories with great taste. His films are plain at first glance, but they reveal the truth when they look closely. It contains a grand background and connotation, and it is light, I think this is the style of "Paradise Cinema" and also Tonadore. I'm not a senior film critic, and I don't read a lot of films, but I really like Tonadore. It may be written without nutrition, and there may be wrong places, please include it.
