The film begins in Berlin in 1977, creating a sense of depressing, clammy, and lonely.
In the political insidiousness, intrigue, and after World War II, they fought for power and divided the country step by step.
Although this film is a remake, the director skillfully made the old work in 1977, and took the chaos of the big era at that time into the 2018 remake version.
To pour out what was taboo at the time, almost half a century later, the repressed power, desire, sexuality and evil ways, let everyone believe that they really exist and have happened.
Weird figures, Pina Bausch combined with alien creatures, and demon-possessed dances; the entanglement between childhood shadows and sexual repression and liberation, the fantasy of non-human sexual intercourse, the intertwining of dreams and reality, with Bergman and ancient Mythical allegory; coupled with montage editing techniques, make the visual and story progress even more terrifying.
Add in the political cryptic and the turmoil of Berlin dividing East and West and the post-World War II world, the undercurrents between nations, the declaration of women's independence; and the consequences of abuse of power, Nazis, terrorism, Fassbender, and feminism , these are the turbulent secrets of the dark tide under the story line. It is hard to believe that these contents can be read through 152 minutes, outside the main story, and the audience can read the password; I think this is also the main reason for the polarized evaluation of this film. Bar.
Coupled with the burden of director Luca Guadagnino's previous work, the small freshness of Call me by your name is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but the ambition always makes people want to challenge and counterattack.
In terms of the overall style of the film, the selection of visuals, editing, soundtrack, storyline and actors are all excellent, and it is a classic thriller.
But why such a short step? There are too many people compared with the old works, and the director's greed to break through is obvious, and the amount of information is packed in, making it impossible for ordinary moviegoers to digest.
But on the whole, it is still good-looking. I have never seen a thriller with such a height and depth that it makes people think so deeply, and it is compared with the corresponding historical data; and the aftertaste is endless.
Every actress in the film plays the role appropriately, without robbing or acting.
And the most amazing thing is Dakota Johnson, who has never been sure if she is the same person as the heroine in Fifty Shadesj of Grey?
The change in form and temperament completely escapes the previous image. This is not only a perfect transformation of the director, but also a milestone in Dakota Johnson's important transformation.
There is also Tilda Swinton who plays the role of a triangle, and even the only male protagonist, he has arranged it, showing a perfect performance of the palace level.
For thrillers about dance and art, Blac-k Swan has to be mentioned, but Black Swan is about the idiosyncrasies of the id and the breakdown of the artist's mental breakdown, while Suspiria is about history, power, feminism, and the abuse of power , it seems that the pattern is relatively macro, but no Black Swan can focus on the division and perfection to the fullest.
But Suspiria is still highly recommended. Many perspectives have never been tried in film history (including moving mirrors); the old works are the pioneers, and the ancestors who started this type of films have the advantage of the times.
In the 2018 version, this film can’t help but let people die in visual photography and the story is hidden everywhere. No one should dare to challenge the remake in the near future; but after another half a century, maybe there will be a new director to re-narrate the 2018 film. historical track.
