Suddenly there was an extra set of black-and-white film series at home, the source of which is unknown. It seems that it was sent by someone else, and it seems that someone else’s home can’t put it down. When it comes to someone else’s home, it will be turned around. I love old things by nature and I am overjoyed.
The old movies admire clear themes, the good is good enough, the bad is bad, aside from the exaggerated elements in tragedies and comedies, actors and plots are all trying to tell stories. But with great strength, he lost a little bit of romance, or room for fantasy. Don't try to lie to the little girl, don't set up ambushes and traps. Many meanings are hidden only slightly in the straightforward dialogue. Even though the story is tortuous and miserable, under the contrast of black and white, everything is understated. Most of the time, the heroine is always beautiful and thrilling. This is something to pay attention to. For example, this father is too poor to sell his daughter, and his face must be persuasive; the maid of that family elopes with others and always sees the moving face when discussing life along the way. A miracle; and if unfortunately, the mysterious female actor meets Pian Pian's lover by chance, the teardrops that whirling will make people sigh, what a wicked old society. The opponents they play with can have nothing to do with their appearance. The men in the black and white images need to use all their body language to show their charm, sometimes grief and anger, sometimes smirk, often beyond the scope of traditional aesthetics. In this way, the story is more like a story, rather than the beauties of the talent show on the stage, or the beauties of the generals.
The transition from black and white to color satisfies the needs of all the costumes, night scenes, pubs and nightclubs, but the actor is dressed in brocade and shining under the colorful neon, but I can understand. She matched the wrong shoes and messed up the bag. Bao, he was obviously a knight from three hundred years ago, why should he show his burgundy hair? Some of what I said is partial, but I can only find such simplicity and directness in black-and-white movies. Now, there are too many subtle tricks, even the virgin woman will turn 360 degrees and have a "two-person turn" with the male protagonist. , Turning and turning, tears in my eyes. The indulgence of this unspeakable indulgence makes the film good and popular, and the audience also loves to watch humorous dramas.
Speaking of black-and-white movies, the most impressive is "Modern Times". Chaplin, the old comedian, has become Zhao Benshan's imitation. Tragedies all over the world have different tearing points, and all comedies only present one kind of joy: unexpected physical conflicts, playful facial expressions, and a little bit of pride. Yang Yang innocence. They systematically study people's hilarious points, jumping from one end of the camera to the other, don't you want to laugh? Then be bolder, dance in ballet, stroll in front of the villain, raise Lanhua's finger and slap him in slow motion. Now, are you willing to smile? Chaplin’s amusement is the clever use of fresh awkwardness. What’s even better is that he uses innocent eyes and clear facial expressions to bring out the excitement that has nothing to do with him. All deliberately is unintentional. I don’t know if anyone watched "Modern Times" and couldn’t help crying like me. Comedians love to talk about small people, but life is miserable enough. It is the habit of the poor to endure starvation, but they still have to look forward to the future. It may be simpler to convince yourself. In the beginning of Destiny, you have to comfort the heroine and make a promise, "I hope I can have a home of my own. Summon the courage and don't be discouraged. It's getting better". This homeless man who is in trouble from time to time begins to break into the world. Under the long back, the heroine's moving posture is desolate.
I like the subtitles that appear under monotonous movie scenes, silent, but bloody.
