Of course, it's okay to say "two o'clock", because the first reason I want to say is that "two o'clock", or to be more precise, it should be "three o'clock". Because I heard that the charming and moving top Dutch actress Caris van Houden, in this film, even showed the hair on her lower body, and her naked body was covered with dung, oh oh, it sounds like It's just fragrant or perverted enough.
The second reason, of course, is that the director of the film is Paul Verhoeven. This is quite an interesting guy. When filming the classic scene in "Instinct" in which Sharon Stone faced the interrogation without wearing underwear, Sharon Stone gave him the underwear he took off before the shooting, and a reporter asked him later. Where are the underpants stored, he said, "It's washed, maybe it's with my kids", and jerk it down. Also, he made a boring pornographic film "Showgirls", which was named the worst film and worst director by the Golden Raspberry Awards that year. The first person to go to the scene to receive the award, it is said that everyone at the scene was stunned by his appearance, and the scene can't help but make people smile.
However, after reading it, I found that about the first point, the rumors are somewhat exaggerated. According to legend, "Black Book" is said to be the "European version of "Lust and Caution", and it really piqued my curiosity: the "paperclip position" in "Lust and Caution" has a high degree of difficulty. It has been said that it has led to serious attempts to break JJ, but I wondered, with Paul Verhoeven's imagination, the difficulty level is probably not impossible. In the end, I found that I was misled. Although I watched the full version known as "one cut without a knife", there were actually no fragrant scenes that were enough to make people drool. Of course, Caris van Houden is really quite ecstasy. The style of pulling up the skirt and the playfulness of grabbing carrots with rabbits are quite extraordinary.
On the other hand, Paul Verhoeven's skills did not disappoint. Although it is a Nazi theme with such a big issue, it is very difficult to be photographed by this guy. Paul Verhoeven's approach this time can almost be said to be a typical "best-selling novel". Violence, pornography, and suspense, all major elements are gathered together, the rhythm is extremely fast, and the single-line narrative is interlocking, and it is not suppressed. Not sensational, the whole story can be described as a twist and turn, almost like the style of "24 Hours" and "Prison Break". The two-hour viewing process was absolutely tense and enjoyable.
But it is precisely because the story is too tense and enjoyable that the inherent profound heaviness of this subject matter seems too superficial. It is said that someone asked Paul Verhoeven if he had considered making a Paul Verhoeven-esque Schindler's List next time? He responded that if you asked Spielberg the same question if he wanted to make a Spielberg-style Instinct, what do you think he would answer?
Paul Verhoeven said that his film philosophy is that there should be not only Hollywood commercials and European boring films in this world, but also commercial films with artistic personality in between. "Black Book" is a work under this concept.
Basically, his statement is the most accurate positioning and generalization of the "Black Book". Of course, I personally think that this statement is actually very different from Paul Verhoeven. According to his usual style in the past, he may say that "Black Book" is like Caris Van Houten's chest shape. , not big, but perfect.
