I plan to watch a movie with Mr. Dai Jinhua. According to the recommendation of this "Movies for Children", read them one by one. Although I am not a child...
I didn't expect "Battleship Potemkin" to be the first silent movie I watched. Textbook movies, it's not my turn to pick and choose. The director is also a representative of the montage school, not only a great film creator, but also a great theoretician.
There is a very strong feeling: after watching too many drool dramas and variety shows with excessive post-effects, the ability to interpret the emotions of the story from the picture is really completely weakened. I read Mr. Dai's article after watching the movie. For example, in the first scene of the movie, "The chef insists on making soup with rotten meat, and the scene where the cannon is filled with oil is inserted into the scene surrounded by sailors. Through this metaphor, the revolutionary situation directly reaches the audience without being told." ~ While I was watching this passage, I stared at the scene of the sailors oiling and wiping the machine, and I wholeheartedly sighed at the meticulousness of the Russians in cleaning. The degree is not inferior to the Japanese, a ship needs such a rubbing method. [covers face] what! What the hell am I thinking?
It’s good for a revolutionary film to be in the form of a silent film. You don’t want a group of people shouting slogans there, wow wow wow, if the picture alone can incite you, it means that the revolution is reasonable.
The wonderful post-production special effects of modern TV and the barrage obliterate people's sensibility, empathy, really.
