I watched this movie on station B. I searched the PT station in my hand, but there were no resources, only Hou Hsiao-hsien's tribute later on as a red balloon tour.
First of all, the story told in the movie is very simple. The little boy found a red balloon tied to a street light on the side of the road, and then the red balloon slowly anthropomorphized in the process of accompanying him, which attracted the jealousy of children of the same age. , As the red balloon became more anthropomorphic, the envy became more and more so that all the friends in the village came to contain the red balloon, until the end of the film, the red balloon was finally punctured. It's hard for me to categorize this movie, fairy tale or prophecy?
The red balloon must have a symbolic meaning, but my knowledge is not enough to support me to determine what it symbolizes? But what I saw in Hamlet tended to represent that he represented self-awareness. The child found the red balloon on the side of the road, and then owned him. As life progressed, the red balloon gradually became the little boy's playmate, accompanying the little boy. growing up. But self-awareness is difficult to be accepted by the public. At first, they were not allowed to get on the bus, and then they were not allowed to enter the house. They were taught and disciplined. They evolved into being robbed by friends, surrounded by groups of peers, until the red balloon. shattered. It seems to reveal that having a sense of self-independence is always not allowed, so at the end the prominent red balloon was punctured. The end of the whole film is very romantic, a lot of balloons are flying from all directions, and the little boy has a lot of balloons. em, the sad point to write here is, but these balloons are not the ones they used to be, and there are no more red balloons! Finally, the balloon escaped the ground with the little boy. What a mess... The one who was taken off the ground by the balloon didn't seem to be a little brother, but a young man.
Well, I finally finished talking nonsense. In general, this short film is really romantic. The red balloon obviously has many other symbolic meanings, such as childhood companions. The above paragraph is a bit of a stunned expression.
In terms of sound, the 1950s and 1960s belonged to the intersection of the silent film era and the audio era. The short film cleverly used the silent film processing method to promote the plot, and the dialogue sound was relatively restrained. There were not many dialogue scenes, and there were dialogues. Time doesn't seem to be much.
On the photographic screen, I think it is very strange that the whole film suppresses the highlights very well, the color contrast of the red balloons is very bright, the color tone of the whole film is gray, only the red balloons and the blue balloons appear. It was rare in the 50's. In addition, I really want to know the shooting method of this incomparably flexible balloon. The soul of the whole short film is here. The red balloon keeps beating, up and down, but it is very rare to see the flaws.
There is also a segment that I like very much in the play, that is, the moment when the red balloon and the blue balloon meet, I think this picture is very beautiful. The meeting of the two balloons seems to be the meeting of two souls, and the two balloons meet.
