Taylor Sheridan reminded me of Luo Hongzhen, the director of "The Chaser", "Yellow Sea" and "The Cry" for the first time. Coincidentally, the only domestic big screen screening of "The Cry" was also at FIRST, and was selected the year before last. Closing movie. And this year's FIRST's opening film "Hunting the Wind River Valley" is said to be an out of print, a special edition cut by Sheridan for the film exhibition. The story of "Hunting the Valley of the Wind" takes place in an Indian reservation in Wyoming. A hunter who is good at tracking found the body of his friend's daughter in the snow. He once suffered the pain of bereavement and took the initiative to cooperate with the FBI rookie detective. Chasing the murderer together... The survival plight of the Indians who are eager to speak behind the crime is a persistent but marginalized topic in the United States. "The Hunt for the Wind Valley" is essentially a genre film, but it can be seen in Cannes. The uniqueness of the subject for the Best Director Award in the Focus Unit is indispensable. Crossing the commercial and independent circles brought honor and problems to the film. The incomplete pursuit of style led to confusion in the final presentation of the work. As the screenwriter of "Border Killer" and "Going Through Fire", Sheridan's dark and cold style is the label of Sheridan. The realism established by the plain and restrained close to real life performance plus the extreme cruelty of the environment where the story takes place has almost become beautiful Standard for crime movies. The hunter’s broken family because of the loss of his daughter, the relationship with his ex-wife, and the verbal comfort to the Indian friend who had just lost his daughter, there is a sense of familiarity. It is difficult to get out of the routines and patterns of commercial movies. The first half of the story of brewing emotions is almost It can be said to be lackluster, the hunter was portrayed by Sheridan too calmly and calmly, and also too perfect. How an unfortunate man can get a deep impression in the ordinary, perhaps "Manchester by the Sea" is an excellent example. How to get rid of the familiar routines of Hollywood has become a necessary prerequisite for the freshness of watching movies. From the discovery of the second body in the snow, the core of the story began to be exposed little by little until the camp where the security guards were stationed was found. The sudden close-range gunfight became the core of the drama, but the investigation of the entire crime seemed to be the core of the drama. It is not too difficult. After all, there are only a few potential criminal gangs that can be found in this place where birds do not shit, and the police have effectively destroyed them. After the FBI agent knocked on the door, the scene suddenly cut into the scene of the Indian girl going to the camp to find her boyfriend on the night of the crime. The god editing made the audience suddenly fall from the fiery and tense scene into a gentle town. This editing method has a Brecht style. The isolation effect, but because it is not the plot but the mood of the audience that reverses, the smooth movie-watching experience that is about to reach its climax comes to an abrupt end. This approach is unusual for commercial films, and only independent films can be so capricious. This is also the origin of the unsmooth rhythm in "Hunting the Wind Valley". The Indian girl running barefoot in the snow finally ran an amazing record of 6 miles. For most ordinary viewers who have no experience in snow survival, we may not know exactly what it means, but the one at the end of the film did not run out soon. The criminal who died from freezing to the lungs exploding in a mile let us know how amazing the girl who ran at the beginning of the film is. As a symbol of the tenacious vitality of the Indians, there are only a few shots of her that are touching. The best tradition of American movies is that you can always find the sunniest and most nutritious chicken soup for the soul in their images. Independent films are essentially anti-commercial films, but genre films are a powerful tool for commercial films. They deeply study and highly summarize all the elements that affect human sensory experience, turning it into a kind of Paplov-like dog training. Mode, specific pictures and sound effects produce a specific movie-watching pleasure. The Hollywood mode has been around for hundreds of years, and aesthetic fatigue has long formed, but the movie-watching experience of most viewers is never enough. This is why the routine is always effective. The root cause. Independent films essentially only provide individualized creations. The advantage of the author's films is that they create a fresh look and feel with their personalized sideways. This kind of fun is essentially to satisfy the aesthetic experience of human beings who like the new and dislike the old. The division of movies into commercial and independent is also one-sided. In my opinion, there is only one kind of good movie, which is to create another virtual world that is comparable to real life like a god. "The Hunt for the Wind", which spans two creative styles, is undoubtedly split and incomplete, but if you also like this kind of mashup, it might not be a good movie worth watching.
