About 1.3 minutes later, the first male (played by Christopher, referred to as the first male) asked: "armed?", the second female (played by Jodie Foster, referred to as the second female) then turned her head. At this time, the camera looks up at the other three protagonists from the perspective of the second female, and guides the first male to become the focus of the picture through the line of sight in the composition. From the opening scene after the second shot of the movie, the second female was arranged by the director to sit and type. The reason is that the camera can be created for about 3 minutes to form this kind of looking up shot, which conveys the perception that the second female's political position is relatively weak at this time, and the male first's political position is relatively strong at this time. It was obvious that the child of the second woman was beaten, but the first man was more powerful. The director used this technique to convey the message that the first man and his wife had higher social status than the second man and his wife. At the same time, the first male is also the person with the highest social status in this room;
2. In the long shot at 3 minutes and 25 seconds, from the initial subjective shot of the male lead to the female lead (played by Kate Winslet, hereinafter referred to as the female lead), to the foreground of the camera, and finally to the two families. The objective lens of the camera, but the male and female are still closer to the camera. At this time, the family of the male and female is still relatively stronger;
3. In the next long shot after 3 minutes and 25 seconds, the female one who was standing beside the male one first said, "Yes, our child." Then the female one walked from the camera to the coffee table of the two men's and two women's homes. , and the two men and two women began to exchange flower arrangements. Here, the reason why the director asks the female one to move the female one to the coffee table after saying that is because on the issue of children, the female one and the male one are in the same position; but on the issue of flower arrangement, the female one and the male one have the same position. The positions of the two women and the second are the same (a metaphor that the woman one and the man one may not have a common language in their married life). After talking about the flower art, the first woman began to talk about the child. At this time, the first woman was dispatched by the director to paint again, and there were only two men and two women standing together on the screen. This is because, on the issue of children, the first female and the first male always belong to the same position, so the director dispatched the second female at this time. Through the way the actors move, the director constantly shows the changing political positions of the four people;
4. One man and one woman want to leave, and two men and two women use food to keep guests. At this time, the director arranged another interesting role scheduling, namely: the first male and the first female sit in a row (representing two people on one front); the second male sits on the opposite side, and the second female sits on the third party. Why did the director arrange the positions like this? Because not only in terms of position, the second female and the second male are on the same front; in this space, the house belongs to the family of two males and two females. So, in order to express the message of the male and female as the host, the director arranged for the female to sit in a seat of the host (and in the West, the long table is the western dining platform, and often the host will sit on the third party). At the same time, the third message is also reflected here: the second female second has a higher right to speak at home than the second male;
5. At about 20 minutes, when the first woman saw Bacon's picture album, the director also arranged for the first woman and the second woman to stand together. In terms of artistic taste, the first woman and the second woman always have the same preference (also to reflect the difference between women and men); at the same time, Bacon's picture book is used as a prop here to symbolize that the game and fight between the two families have begun, and the anger They are just restrained under civilization, and their inner emotions are already full of killing breath;
6. Based on the analysis of point 5, the film is about 21 minutes and 35 seconds. When the men talk about forming gangs, the first male and the second male also resonate, which is also a reflection on the life and art of the first female and the second female. The other side of vibes is an argument for male vibes. However, when the men resonated, the director did not arrange for them to sit together, but the two sat on opposite sides. This is also a discussion by the director of the differences between men and women: even if there is resonance between men, there is a sense of competition (not to mention their empathy is about fighting and fighting) The resonance between women is more sympathetic;
7. Around the 24th point, the director arranged for the second male lead to change the dishes for everyone (whether the female lead gets up or leaves or changes the cups and dishes, the male lead does it. It can be seen that the director has spent enough thought to highlight the low voice of the male second at home) It is for a male tacit understanding formed when the second male stands and communicates with the first male who is already standing on the phone. Because the second male carries the plate to the kitchen, and then goes back to the living room to stand, it seems natural, but in fact the director's real intention to arrange the second male to carry the plate is for the later scene where the second male communicates with the first male. From 25 minutes and 25 seconds to 27 minutes and 29 seconds, it is actually a scene where women are oppressed by men. In the 25 minutes and 25 seconds of the camera, from the perspective of the first woman sitting on the sofa, she looks up to the second man standing holding a coffee cup. In terms of composition, it forms a feeling that the first woman is oppressed by the second man. The camera positions at 26 minutes 11 seconds and 26 minutes 27 seconds also use the same principle to have the same visual perception. In this scene, the director apparently arranged for the second male and the first male to talk about buying a toilet, but in fact, he wanted to express the harassment caused by male peeping at the sexual level of women through this dialogue. This is a topic that men love to talk about in friendship. There are sexual implications here. So, as a woman, all of the cameras listed in this article, which is article 7, can be seen as reaction shots about the women in this scene, because women always feel violated at such moments. And in this conversation, the men talking about button handles and flush handles are metaphors for the different types of women they've played with. So in this scene, the two women become a team again, and the men also become a team. Interestingly, when the men reached a consensus, the director still arranged for the second male and the male to stand side by side, instead of arranging the second female and the first female to stand side by side. The director still wanted to express that the aggressiveness in the male bones created the relationship between the males. The friendship of women is full of competition; the softness in the bones of women makes the friendship between women relatively sympathetic;
8. At 40 minutes and 56 seconds, the director arranged for the second female to sit down, and then the second female said a sentence: "I give up." The director arranged for the second female to sit down to express her psychology of giving up the argument at that moment;
9. At around 41 minutes, the second male received a call from his mother. At the beginning, in the picture, he is standing on the right side with his face to the right. Why did the director arrange this? In the picture of this camera position, the outer wall on the right is white and bright, and the left side of the screen is the living room where the inner room should be eaten. From this camera position, it is dark and the furnishings are various. When the second male first made the phone call, he talked openly and honestly; when what he and his mother said were more private, the director arranged for him to turn around and face the inner room, which symbolized that the content of his phone conversation became obscure at this time. After that, the second male hurriedly changed the subject and hung up the phone, so he turned around and came back, symbolizing that he got rid of private chats and could face everyone openly;
10.
In the second half of the film, there are rarely scenes of sitting in pairs and chatting together, but instead it turns into a place where they are independent. The reason is that in the second half, the point of contradiction has not only focused on children, but has risen to the contradiction between people as independent individuals and other independent individuals. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes;
