I revisited it for the second time today. I couldn't bear to see it before. A group of people were in a room, making a lot of noise, feeling bored and dull. Now I can suddenly understand Hitchcock's dialogue immersion. Watching them talking, the answer is ready to come out, which makes people expect the result but look forward to it.
Brandon prides himself on being superior, but when facing Rupert, he is like a child when he encounters something he likes but cannot reach, and can't wait to show his talent to Rupert. Different feelings, excitement, excitement, worship, and shouting from the bottom of my heart: Look, we are all the same people! He even ended with the rhetoric of Rupert when he was having another banquet. He believed that both of them held the same opinion, even if the body was found, it was not the worst, as long as Rupert could understand himself. , but he was wrong. Rubert opened the window and fired three shots at the sky. He began to palpitate, and everything was powerless. It turned out that he could not escape the punishment of the law. He loosened his tie, picked up the cup and poured it for himself. a glass of wine.
Hitchcock always grasps the dark side of the character's heart just right, there are too many such pretentious people in life, showing their worst side in front of smart people, but what such people do is not something that can be ignored. The public understands, so they might proudly think: I was the first person to do this, and they would never have guessed, even if I gave a little hint and watched them talk like fools, But I can't figure out any direction of things, and there will be an inexplicable pleasure in my heart. It's awesome, that's the feeling~
Not only in the dialogue, but also some camera angles are cleverly used. When Brandon pushed open the spring-loaded door and walked into the kitchen to open the drawer, the door was closed, and when the door opened again, he was confident that he was strangling someone just now with a smile. the rope into the drawer. Then the door slammed shut again, and the next moment it opened again, and he came out with a smirk on a plate full of food and said to Mrs. Wilson that there was champagne in the kitchen, yes, a glass of champagne to celebrate is the most comfortable thing something happened. This perspective gives the audience a deeper understanding of Brandon's character and how he handles things. I won't let you see how I clean up the crime scene, you just need to see me holding the body with a grim expression. I won't let you see how I clean up the body, you just need to see me driving a car with a cigarette in my hand, listening to the car music, driving calmly on the wide avenue. This is a really ingenious filming technique, Hitchcock is a well-deserved master of suspense, I am sure of this again!
