Pound has a masterpiece of Imagist poetry "In a Subway Station":
the ghostly appearance of these faces in the crowd;
the many petals on the wet black branches.
The subway station was crowded with people, Helena was trying hard to find Fred, her blond hair flashed in her black hair, and a blond fluttered into her eyes, a surprise on her face, she went against the flow of people entering the station to Fred De, the crowd slowed her down, and then turned into a sad face, she saw a black gun, "Bang", Helena finally walked to Fred's side, Fred The bomb fell into Helena's arms and fell to the ground. The other end of the subway was singing passionately.
This is the ending of Luc Besson's second work, "Underground" (1985), and at this moment my heart is suddenly shaken by some kind of burning heat, not because of Fred's soul in heaven, nor because of Fred's death The whispers of love are burned by the exuberant youthful and throbbing emotions in the film. There is no journey beyond desire, anger and fear. The process of growing up is rebellious, regretful and touching. In the sky of this underground society, pervading every corner, it is not just gray, black or escape. Luc Besson returned Perhaps this is a cruel tenderness.
Fred, "The Pulley Boy", "Flower Seller" and so on are usually a group of street gangsters or a group of young and dangerous people, a group of urban fringe people wandering on the subway, the director has nothing to do with them. Approved, and arranged for the habitual thief "The Pulley Kid" to be captured, and Fred to be shot. But Luc Besson gave sympathy and care to this group of people living at the bottom. They are a group of people who escape from the busy and noisy Paris. They squander their youth. They have an impulse and irritability in their bones. this society.
In the same way, they also have their own ideals, the hopes of dreams, and the difference between hope and disappointment. If there is music in a person's life, then he still has hope. When Fred was six years old, he was involved in a car accident and was hospitalized for six months. The pain was six years without speaking, a sad childhood. Fred is indifferent to everything in the world, his dream is to hold a small concert, even if tomorrow dies, let today be happy, even if it is hell, let the lava erupt, he The enthusiasm for life and the vitality of life should be conveyed to everyone enthusiastically.
The scene where Fred dances with Helena is a classic, and the dialogue makes me laugh.
"Why I'm in love with you"
"Mainly because I'm a wonderful woman"
"Why don't you love me"
"Because I'm scared"
"You're lazy"
"Yes, very lazy"
"Who cooks for you"
" We have a cook"
, "what about the housework",
"we also have a maid"
, "what about **"
in the provocative language, but behind the scenes is Helena's empty and boring life.
Helena and her husband face entertainment and business every day. The boredom and hypocrisy of the upper class make her at a loss. She is just a vase for her husband. Life bored her, a stolen document became her bond with Fred, she jumped into their lives, listening to the thumping drums and watching the beating bonfire she found the lost again. Joy, whose heart was filled with dust for a long time, was revived and ignited at this moment, and she felt that rebellious emotion made her feel that this was not the life she wanted. So he made this sound to his husband: "I'm getting bored with your life, your smiles and your plots, I'm even bored with your money".
Suddenly found that "Fallen Angels" and "Underground" are very similar, I wonder if Wong Kar-wai found inspiration from this film, Luc Besson used a lot of symbolic environmental space to express the world he wants to explain.
Moving subway trains, noisy stations, crowded people - wandering, insecure
closed and narrow subways, spider web-like underground roads - sense of distance and self-preservation
Small bars in subway stations, closed Room, no sunny place - Escape from Self-Hidden The
film uses the popular disco music and jazz and blues music of the 1980s. The rhythm of the music and the picture blend with each other, colliding with a strong sense of rhythm, and the youthful singing is even more Express enthusiasm for life. Although it is a story that takes place in the subway, the color of the picture is not dark, on the contrary, there are joyous songs everywhere, and there is vitality everywhere. Like a cocktail bartender, Luc Besson carefully mixes and kneads different materials to create a movie-watching mood with a strong sense of impact, and conveys this hotness to every audience.
For this film Christopher Rambo won the Best Actor Award at the Cesar Awards. I will never forget Fred's eyes, his eyes are firm, there is no youthful confusion, and he is dyed with blond hair. Put on a beige windbreaker, stand on the platform and wait for the subway train, the train gallops over, puffs up the windbreaker, and adds a cynical demeanor. According to the current popular saying, it is simply cool to the highest point. Isabelle Adjani plays Helena. She looks frosty on the outside, but her heart is full of fire-like passion. Her eyes are mysterious and unpredictable, but they contain the tenderness that is unique to women, and she shows a little like. With the maturity and charm of the two women before, Adjani interprets the image of this little tormented resentful woman with a subtle connotation.
Mid-Autumn Festival in August is the season of sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus. Walking through this row of paths full of sweet-scented sweet-scented sweet-scented flowers, the stamens have begun to fall into the soil. I grabbed a handful of soil, and the fragrance of sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus mixed with the fragrance of the soil, as if re-constructing life; Fred lay on the ground, his soul began to wake up again, looking up at the boiling music concert, his mouth made a "Bah Bah..." sound with the beat of the music, unless you have experienced it, anything is Unreal, he got kisses, music and joy, and youth failed, but he burned.
