Yes, "Subway" leads us through emotional ups and downs, into a raging frenzy inside us, and films like "In Paradise" really teach us how the emotional vortex turns. The storyline of "Subway" is extremely simple, and it is not as convoluted as many of today's films that advertise "ism". It can even be said that this is a very old-fashioned film-the emotional entanglement between the thief and the upper-class woman, so we have learned the story routine in movies such as "Roman Holiday", and it seems that we can't bring it to us. to any emotional shock. Luc Besson always kneads implosion power into the seemingly cold camera language, which catches you off guard, as if he is solidly ramming a piece of land, but inadvertently, he wedges nails into yours. heart. He is like a top martial arts master who can win with no moves.
That's how I got beat by him. The thief Fred (as Christophe Lambert) inadvertently steals high-class Héléna's Husband and is chased by his gangsters. With his superb driving skills, he escapes the killer's pursuit and escapes to the Paris subway. It was only after he entered the subway that he realized that he had entered a new and strange world that surprised him. In this world, there is Florist (Richard Bohringer), a florist who is always planning all conspiracies, Roller Skater, who has amazing sliding skills, and unknown bassist, drummer (played by Reno), guitarist... But they Living an alternative life, they seem to be cut off from society as a whole. The bottom is their world, they belong to the bottom, they are a bunch of weirdos living in isolation. Naturally, Fred also joined the group and became a member of the underground.
But Fred couldn't forget the ground, and he called Helena and asked her to redeem her husband's papers. In the process of contacting Helena again, he finds himself in love with the person he is trying to blackmail. The document just became a fig leaf to invite Helena to meet, and the underground where they met was destined to be buried in their love. Although Helena did not have a fiery love for Fred, she was also moved by her unpretentious and sincere love. Fred leads him into the underworld, a life she slowly finds herself in love with. In contrast, she began to despise and disdain the earthly life full of hypocrisy everywhere. She embarrassed his wife while attending a high-ranking dinner with her husband, provocatively claiming that she was not interested in this frivolous private life.
Fred loved music since childhood, but due to a problem with his vocal cords, he could only listen to other people's singing. When wandering in various underground places, they came up with an idea to form their own band, he organized the wandering artists into a band with a considerable level, and invited black singers for the band. It was at this point that he committed his last crime, robbing the bank in cooperation with the flower seller. But he used the money to rent the performance hall of the underground station. For the first time, the band he formed went out of the underground and entered the formal venue in a grand manner. All the audience went crazy.
It was in the music of black singers that Fred's life came to an end. The killer's dark muzzle was aimed at Fred, who fell. Helena, in pain, gave her one last kiss, and the movie stopped.
Compared with these alternative people underground, normal people in our eyes appear cowardly and incompetent, even ridiculous. The police are strong on the outside and work on the inside, and the gangsters also look like clowns. It is through this comparison that the director writes the hypocrisy, pretentiousness, and unreality that are common in the existence of human society...
"Subway" is a fable, a scalpel that cannot be spoken but is always in action. The depths of our hearts...
This is the reflection of the underground alternative survival world...
Luc Besson's efforts have also been widely recognized, it won 13 nominations at the 11th French Film César Award, and Won three awards.
Sadly, this is a movie we have forgotten about.
Forgetting is not scary, what is scary is that we forget ourselves at the same time. Luc Besson asked us to rebuild our memory...

gorgeous and decadent - Luc Besson's "subway"
subway is gradually becoming a In addition to the daily transportation in modern cities, it has also become a choice for frequent interpretation of classic scenes in movies. Remember the last scene in "The Perfect Thief," when the subway passes by and the heroine (Zeta-Jones) is desperate to find the person on the other side disappearing silently. But Hollywood didn't let it end so melancholy, disappearing on the opposite side of the track, reappearing on this side of the track, and then another subway passed by, carrying away a perfect pair of lovers, and the satisfied eyes of the audience were fixed on the empty station. Perhaps before the popularity of the subway, there were similar classics that were performed in a relatively simple way at the bus station, and have not yet been eliminated. Maybe at some point in the future, a more magical mode of transportation will replace the subway, and then a new classic will be born.
Luc Besson's "Metro" stretches the lens from the vast highway to the innards of the subway system, showing the hustle and bustle and decadence transferred from the ground to the underground. The director uses his unique publicity style - which looks like Hollywood but is actually French, to open up the rich and alternative scenes in the narrow subway station: the subway thief speeding on the wheel board, the lazy drummer who is addicted to music and his The band, the flower-sellers who are always planning criminal deals. . . It is just one aspect of the transparent degeneration of modern society and the state of maximum reconciliation. A voiceless man who fell in love with the mafia's sweet wife started his hopeless pursuit here in a dangerous way. Finally got a tearful kiss as he fell in a pool of blood. His lover struggled to pounce on his side, and he smiled peacefully beside the subway. The subway band he finally formed was in its premiere, and the black lead singer he recruited had a wonderful voice. The splendor and publicity of the theme song and the calm melancholy and deeply decadent style of the male lead merged in his quiet humming at the end.
