As early as 8 years ago, British director James Marsh filmed a documentary film "The Tightrope Walker" which was also based on Philip Pat, which truly restored Philip's every move of freely walking between the Twin Towers in 1974. It was a blockbuster and received great acclaim, and won the Oscar for the best documentary that year. It opened a channel with a documentary approach, shuttled back to history, and has a more intuitive and in-depth perspective. It is a magical and personal experience of such an incomparably beautiful shocking moment. However, For many people, what this film presents is no longer just a performance artist who dared to spare his life to reproduce the deeds of the cattle breaking that year. For the Twin Towers that were tragically destroyed in 2001, it is for people who suffered severe physical and psychological damage. , This film has been given a deeper meaning, "Walking in the Clouds" is actually the same, seeing the last sweet-hearted Annie said to Philip: "Perhaps you gave them life, give them light. "The camera turned to the twin towers standing quietly in the night, moving and sad.
"Walking in the Clouds" by Robert Zemigis, this famous director who has photographed many classics such as "Forrest Gump" and "Back to the Future", once again with his old partner Aaron Shi With Vischa’s cooperation, the soundtrack still fits the situation so well. Unexpectedly, the too "ruly" and "normal" shooting process and technique still made me a little disappointed. The early background paving and "criminal preparation" seemed to be gone. There is no sense of weight in the cutscenes, and it seems general and thin. If Philip's experience in Paris, the learning process from Rudy, and the "accomplices" get along with each other, we will plan careful preparations and cooperation with our friends. The implementation process and the portrayal of his mentality changes were the foundation for Philip's final conquest of the world, so the overall look was loose and fragile, but Zemigis still relied on powerful scientific and technological means to keep this one piece. The big advantage is that the immersive experience brought to the audience by the fake and real CG background and 3D/IMAX effects. The 412 meters breath-holding extension and verticality enhance the thrilling pleasure of watching movies, just like What "Variety Show" reviews: You will believe it only after watching it on the big screen.
This time Philip is performed by the beloved Jessoff, which has raised a lot of attention for this film, from a slightly deliberate French accent, personally learning to walk the tightrope, fluctuating mood swings and slightly exaggerated In the performance, I can see that he has done enough preparation and homework, and it also makes people look forward to the "Snowden" version of "Snowden". Charlotte, who plays Philip's street singer girlfriend Anne, is also very outstanding, but the technology is mediocre. The script still didn’t allow them to have too much room for display and breakthrough from the inside out. I didn’t even recognize Ben Kingsley at a glance. Of course, this film was not just trying to show Philip's last hazy scene in New York in the early morning. On a steel cable without protection, he walked back and forth between the North and South Towers of the World Trade Building in an elegant and thrilling manner without any protection measures, fulfilling his crazy and arrogant and incredible dream in the eyes of ordinary people, an impossible one. His mission is so simple, and the focus is on an unreachable goal. In his unscrupulous and brave practice, he was able to break through any restrictions and constraints, and he was shocked to do it. It is enviable and admired, just because Philip has the courage to do it. The first madness and paranoia and unwilling to adventurous spirit of mediocrity.
Without a shining stage and western-style costumes, Philip, dressed in plain black clothes, bleeding from the soles of his feet, walked freely in two 110-story towering buildings, turning around, lying down and bending his knees, all kinds of stunned movements. Performed in turn, at that moment, Philip, who saw the tightrope as his life and happiness, seemed to feel a spiritual value of reality and self-consciousness. From being unable to endure too much interference, he was able to completely ignore the presence of the police and overcome his fear. Without impetuosity, he defeated the demons of the heart, and completed the wonderful performance of unprecedented people without any danger. His success turned madness and questioning into shock and moving expressing lofty respect. He made the Twin Towers, Twin Towers. The tower also made him. Although Philip’s crazy behavior was regarded as illegal, he never thought of hurting anyone. After the arrest, Philip shouted that the police would not cut the wire rope at will and hurt the innocent people. He was "breached by a strange man." ", Philip’s subconscious actions can all explain that even if he was eventually sentenced to jail for breaking the law, he was ordered to be an ordinary busker in New York’s Central Park in the future. Friends and lovers left one after another, but from the end of the film, Philip’s words were beyond words. In his pride and pride, he can feel his no regrets and satisfaction.
After watching this movie, in addition to lamenting the spectacle brought by the visual effects, the heart seems to have been inspired and inspired. A passionate voice came from the bottom of my heart, and I quickly found myself from the fucking and boring life. , Let go and take a risk, for the sake of dreams, regardless of success or failure, working hard, no regrets, of course, Philip’s dream is linked to the avant-garde artist who often relies on rebellious, deviant, and outrageous words and deeds to become famous in one fell swoop. He boldly conceived that he was unbelievable and stood out from the crowd. Perhaps such a person would rarely come up in a century. But returning to daily life, in reality, many people’s ideals within a reasonable range are often poured cold water, and they are ruthlessly complained as stupid attempts that do not know the heights of the sky, so that many children who are still in adolescence have seriously lost their share of the risk of failure. With his courage and the questioning mentality of the outside world, his whole life is like hiding in the limited and safe white circle drawn by Plipp on the ground in Paris, living the so-called good life of the so-called mediocre and mediocre life, so I missed it. Many opportunities to become or to achieve one’s own self, in order to realize their ideals, are regarded by many people as wild and crazy actions. On the contrary, they are actually indulging in the "source motivation" that we seriously lack in a stable and numb life. It is also Philip's experience and attitude. It gave me understanding and emotion on another level of this piece.
Finally, a few digressions, 15 years ago, September 11 was the opening day of the Jewish Hall in Berlin designed by the famous Jewish architect Daniel Libuskin. It is also known as the day when the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York died. The Libbs Finance, known as a healing architect, entered the concept and thinking of "light" he has always been good at, and won the reconstruction project of the World Trade Center in the second year, leading New York and the people from the dark and painful Come out from the shadows of the world to welcome a new and bright future. The "Freedom Tower", the first building after the reconstruction of the World Trade Center on 11.3 the year before, was officially opened to the outside world. From "The Tightrope Walker" to "Walking in the Clouds", after 8 years, Philip once again reproduced the "miracles" through the magic of the image. I believe that there will be more stories worthy of praise and memory in the future. , Continue to write the legend, and then wonderfully put on the screen.
