- What kind of loud music do you like to listen to
?
A lot of stuff. That's my fault.
---------------------------------------- -----------------
The feeling of Chongqing Forest, I believe everyone is the same, but the love in life is far more than that. And the misplaced editing in many places is more than my usual I watch other movies more often, maybe it's intentional. I will talk about my feelings slowly. After watching it, I really like it, especially Faye Wong. I feel that it is very similar to myself in some ways
. is sick. spiritual.
1. Brigitte Lin likes to wear raincoats and sunglasses, in order to put down the rain and the sun. The pragmatism is extreme. In addition, the identity of the killer is so weird, it also reminds me of Leon
.
. Faye Wong has a habit of living in other people's homes and has a habit of destroying and decorating. Of course, blaming Yu Aisheng may also be a major factor.
4. Takeshi Kaneshiro is no problem in comparison. The whole lost love, confused and ignorant young man.
Second, the role of an actor.
Three of the four protagonists are not from Hong Kong, or even from Cantonese (accent, please point out any mistakes). According to the accents, they are listed in this order: Faye Wong, Brigitte Lin, Takeshi Jin. He is Japanese(?), and I am amazed that he is so fluent in Mandarin, but it was really tormenting him to keep speaking Cantonese at first. Maybe the director did it on purpose. As for Lin Qingxia, the proportion of Cantonese in the film is not Great, it's okay in other films I've read. Faye Wong's pronunciation and intonation are basically fine, but some key positions can be heard immediately, but I don't know that she is from Beijing. I'm ashamed. As the only Hong Konger among them, Tony Leung should The daily life of the show seems to be the most comfortable, after all, he has been struggling until now.
Tucao here...I think the owner of the store is also a leading role--...a lot of scenes.
3. The plot line.
I won't say this. ...
Let me talk about the details, let me be too serious, that is, Tony Leung suddenly went home to see if the flight attendant was back, and then Faye Wong hid in the closet, thinking it was an illusion of one of them, but as for the Faye Wong's hallucination is still Liang Chaowei's, but I don't know it after reading this paragraph. But I watched it...and it went on like this...It turns out that because of the key in the letter, it makes sense.
The other one, a little bit Pediatrics. After all, Tony Leung didn't read the letter from the flight attendant, and Wong Kar Wai didn't explain the film. I guess it doesn't matter.
I want to talk about the 5 times when Faye Wong found the key in the letter, and then went to the address. This is the concentrated expression of Faye Wong's feelings and mental journey
. Entering for the first time. Prank: playing with Tony Leung, out of curiosity. Eating noodles: changing inner roles, wanting to experience life like Tony Leung, playing planes: I think there are Two points, 1. Point out her free character, echoing what she said before that she wants to travel; 2. Want to become a flight attendant in order to get the love of Tony Leung, foreshadowing to become a flight attendant in the end.
Summary: The first time is Faye Wong's curious prying psychology, Want to walk into Tony Leung's life. But the factor of curiosity accounts for more.
The second time, changing the tablecloth, arranging clothes, changing shoes, sleeping pills: Tony Leung said that he didn't sleep well,
summary: On the contrary, the last time's trouble, the second time Faye Wong seems to be more loving and wants to do a lot for Tony Leung, but he doesn't want him to know. The sleeping pills reflect his care. The care for his family, through Tony Leung's love for his family, makes Faye Wong, who Tony Leung will understand in the end, do for him. Everything.
The third time, cleaning, wearing a flight attendant uniform: foreshadowing to become a flight attendant, confirming my idea: changing cans: I want to make Tony Leung's life more fun rather than static, seems to find hair, change sheets: Faye Wong Possessiveness towards Tony Leung appears stronger, probably because he discovered the long hair of the stewardess, so he lost his temper and changed the sheets, in order to make Tony Leung forget her faster.
For the fourth time, I bought a goldfish to meet, and I looked righteous. I slept with Tony Leung.
Faye Wong seemed to gradually regard his home as her own. I guess there will be a kiss scene, but they slept quietly together, but they looked more comfortable
. Five times, cleaning and arranging newspapers origami planes: another metaphor, which also reflects Faye Wong's childishness. For the
last time, Tony Leung discovered that the strange relationship between the two finally seemed to end. After
analysis, it is the structure that I want to talk about in the fifth paragraph. The problems are consistent. The relationship between the two revolves around home. Faye Wong is such a free personality, home seems to be a harbor for her, and she just lacks one. And Tony Leung has just lost his love, and he also seems to be in love with home. Talking about his fetish. When Tony Leung answered most of Faye Wong's questions, it didn't matter. It just matched Faye Wong's character. As for Faye Wong becoming a flight attendant in the end, I think it was because of myself and also because of Tony Leung.
Also, Faye Wong has gone on like this for a long time. Taking care of Tony Leung's house and not making him schizophrenic is also strange. Maybe Tony Leung has a few tendons.- -4
. Shooting techniques.
Wong Kar Wai's characteristic sports shots. Not much to say. The most impressive one is Faye Wong in front of Tony Leung. The part of flirting with the waitress at the food stalls, this uses bt... (Of course, directors who use sports lenses well are not good at all...).
Here are the most impressive ones:
1. Part 1 There are two broken frames for the chase (I don't know how to express it...), I looked uncomfortable, so I remember it very clearly. It seems to be a dream-like feeling, probably to highlight the tension of the chase.
2. In the two sets of shots of Faye Wong pouring fasting coffee to Tony Leung, and Faye Wong in California, the speed of passers-by and the speed of one action of Tony Leung seem like a lifetime apart, which seems vicissitudes and long, and I have seen it in East Evil and West Poison. I have a lot of feelings.
As for the long shots, I haven't seen a few (scold me!). The general impression is that Takeshi Kaneshiro and the convenience store staff are scolding there. Then Faye Wong goes to Tony Leung's house every day, is it a montage?
By the way... If I were the director, I would take a long shot in the fast food restaurant and the bar at the beginning, let the four protagonists walk by coincidentally, and explain it directly. That big opening and closing... ..(I used this in Donnie Darko... I still remember it fresh).
Five. Structure paragraph.
The intersection between Jincheng Wu and Lin Qingxia in the first paragraph is only in a tavern, it can also be said to be a real encounter with Lin Qingxia. In fact, they I encountered it before.
And the intersection of the first paragraph and the second paragraph can also be said that Kaneshiro Takeshi and Faye Wong are in a fast food restaurant, and the only purpose seems to be to transfer to the second paragraph. But I think maybe the director wants to emphasize that The contingency of time and space, because he mentioned the concept of '0.01 cm' twice through the mouth of Takeshi Kaneshiro, and also mentioned the two figures of '52 hours' and '7 hours'.
In addition, the relationship between Tony Leung and Faye Wong really happened. The place is in Tony Leung's house. According to Tony Leung's thinking, in fact, the second segment is the performance of the three roles of Tony Leung, Faye Wong and Tony Leung's home. The two people's feelings for home, and Faye Wong's goodwill towards Tony Leung are intertwined, and There are no lines to explain, it's very subtle.
My guess is...multi-angle or ring structure XD~ Haha two big smoking guns and pulp fiction are too deep in the brain I think there might be some strange way of meeting in the end, or some other characters will appear when one person is the main line. But the film ends up being divided into two unrelated parts... a little disappointed, see Come on, I have to change the script and make it again haha~
Six, lines.
The lines are well written, and the whole film is undoubtedly awesome. If you know the details, you will know that I don't need to salivate. That's what "canned food" "10,000 years", was it taken to a cottage later?... I just blame myself for being born in this era. If I had seen Chongqing Forest first, I would not have felt too much, and it would not have been like this. Wasted, the shock of this line will be stronger.
Takeshi Kaneshiro's character's lines are mostly hearsay in the subconscious. For example, "I heard that drinking helps digestion." And so on. It reflects a little bit of character. And this is also a bit similar to the concept instillation in the Fight Club that is full of contrary to universal values. .And his monologues are also very many. Juvenile feelings...- -? Compared with Tony Leung and Faye Wong's monologues, there are not so many monologues. Of course, Tony Leung's acting skills are everything.
Seven. Soundtrack
1. The soundtrack is also very harmonious. It complements the film. A part about Indians twice, deliberately used Indian music to create a feeling of going deep into the Indian area.
2. The most famous film in the whole film must be California Dreaming. Speaking of which, I have to talk about its influence on Faye Wong. Faye Wong The most impressive part of the character is her casual swing to this song in the film, which is also what made Faye Wong in this film to a certain extent. This song is in the form of a chorus. There were many such bands in the 1960s, such as the Beatles, such as Beach boys, the 1960s was a time when a hundred flowers were blooming. Without restraint, countless excellent bands emerged and were covered by the light of the Beatles. It seems that the ensemble form of expression is very valued by Western values, and it is indeed beautiful. And I guess Is this a metaphor for the influence of Faye Wong's style in the future? I haven't listened to a few songs of Faye Wong, but some songs make me feel that they are very influenced by psychedelic music, so that they move towards the glam rock style later, in my opinion It is the influence of the entire Hong Kong music scene. At that time, many artists in Hong Kong in the 1990s had a music style similar to beatles, or other forms of psychedelic expressions, such as Xu Guanjie. The relationship between Hong Kong and the United Kingdom and the deep influence were also formed by the atmosphere of the music scene at that time. Important factors.
3. When the CD of CaliD landed at Tony Leung's house, the music played in the store was an obvious Soul, and I didn't verify the details. Afterwards, Tony Leung took the CD and told her that it was not suitable for her. Listen, then close. This also coincides with Faye Wong's style line. In the early days, when Faye Wong was still Wang Jingwen, there was some Soul singing. As for the later style change, it was also the same as the metaphor in the movie. These are just me 4. < Dreamer
>. Faye Wong's singing voice is speechless, beautiful and moving, and the singing behind it is open. Cover from The Cranberries-
Here are some digressions. I personally think that the expressions of Cantonese songs and Mandarin songs are actually very different. I think it is mainly because of language. Because there are 6 kinds of tones in Cantonese, and there are as many as 9 kinds of tones (I haven't studied in Hong Kong, my friends in Hong Kong should know that), which can reflect a strong sense of rhythm in itself, so that The lyrics read out and the melody sung is no different. The pop music developed in recent years has basically been like this. The innate advantages of the language have made Cantonese songs a bottleneck, that is, the limitations of the
lyrics. Some pronunciations go against the pronunciation principle, that is, they do not match the original pronunciation. Faye Wong is not from Hong Kong, and the lyricist Zhou Limao is from Hong Kong, so I wonder if Faye Wong seems to be more liberal, which makes this work more appealing. It has Faye Wong's own characteristics. So get rid of the constraints of pronunciation, the lyrics can be written outstandingly, and the interpretation can be more moving. (It seems that I have to write a paper on Cantonese in the future..)
5. The first and second paragraphs use sax to play The first paragraph is when Kaneshiro Takeshi and Brigitte Lin met, and the second paragraph is when Tony Leung did not wait for Faye Wong. Both scenes are in the bar, and it is natural to apply jazz music to create an elegant and blurred atmosphere. The first paragraph is two The scene of a prospective lover, and the second paragraph is the dialogue between Tony Leung and the bottle, alluding to the fetish contained in Tony Leung's subconscious.
Eight. Cultural phenomenon.
Indians' own community. Indians have a low status in the film and are engaged in Low-end occupation. This reminds me of Filipino maids. Some factors left over from the imperial system make Hong Kong's cultural elements more diverse. It is a characteristic of Hong Kong.
Nine. Feeling.
The director's color scheme is very bleak, evoking my faded impression of Hong Kong in the 1990s. At that time, Hong Kong was full of old housing estates, old-style appliances, old-style floor tiles, and colorful dresses. They reminded me again and again that it was in the past. Hong Kong. Hong Kong movies in the 1990s can be said to be the best, and many of my dreams are also set here. And those canned food. In those days, we all liked canned food. There are canned fruits and canned soups. Canned dace has always been I ate it when I was eating soaked rice, because I didn't have any vegetables, or I was too lazy to cook. The taste of dace with tempeh, I can't forget the taste. Adults say that canned food is not healthy, but canned food is delicious.
Most of the writing is about the second paragraph, about Faye Wong, I believe you can tell that I have a crush on Faye Wong. Many people fell in love with Faye Wong because of this movie. I don't know if it's too late for me. I'm ashamed to say that I have stopped caring about the Chinese music scene since junior high school. Such a unique star , but also missed it. I like the nervousness in the film, the eyes I don't know where to look, and the leisurely swaying when listening to music, which is somewhat similar to me. I
only watched it once, and I believe there will be more feelings in the future.
