1. Tone

The tone of a movie can be manipulated in many ways, for example, the style of performance can greatly influence how we react to a scene. In Idrosha Ushi's "Heavenly Questions", the tone is objective and realistic, all non-professional actors are used to make the performance style very realistic, and they do not exaggerate emotional Zhang to enhance the drama.

Genre can also help set the tone of the film, with epic films unfolding in a more dignified than life-like manner such as "The Searcher" or "October" The best thrillers are usually tough, vicious, and tough, as "Double Indemnity" and "Deadly Gambler," the comedy's tone is frivolous, playful and even silly.

The off-screen narration can also help set the tone of the film, creating another counterpoint to the objective viewing of the play, for example the narration can be ironic, as in "Sunset Boulevard" or sympathetic, as in "Dances with Wolves") , or even panic, such as "Taxi Driver"; or a Confucian style, such as "A Clockwork Orange" is narrated by a defiant.

The music is most often used to set the tone of a movie. It's all rock and roll, or a Mozart or Ray Charles jazz soundtrack. The atmosphere is completely different. In Spike Lee's "Jungle Fever," the Italian-American scene is complemented by Frank Sinatra's singing, African-American plays use gospel songs and soul music.

    The rhythm of this western film half a century ago may not meet people's appetite now, but its classical temperament and strong dramatic style can still give people a deep impression. The westerns that reflect racial issues are still "Dances with Wolves" top.

    Looking back many years ago, those doors, those multi-person scheduling, music, light, shearing, many powerful moments, but it has always been difficult to enter, difficult to empathize with. I took it out today and reviewed it and suddenly felt how heartbreaking it was~~~ This is not a heroic movie, ethan is a very complicated and offensive character.
