"Fahrenheit 911", this is a very controversial film, some people say: this is a documentary, it shows us some unknown and ugly sides of the US government; some people say: this can't be considered at all A documentary, because it is mixed with too much Moore's own subjective understanding, it is not objective, and some of it is an illusion created by Moore. Here, whether it is a documentary or not, let's leave it aside, let's talk about the success of this film first.
In the film, Moore uses a lot of news images, newspapers, interviews, documents, film and television materials, music and other elements to bring the audience to the ideological area he wants.
At the beginning of the film, Moore used a lot of news footage and realistic records of important meetings to tell us: Bush won the presidency, but from Moore's playful tone, we saw Moore's dissatisfaction with Bush's presidency, It also smelled a hint of the development direction of the plot.
In the film, we see Moore telling us through newspapers that Bush tried to prevent Congress from launching an investigation on his own (bush seeks to restrict Hill Probes of Sept. 11) and even authorized a plane to pick up Latinos, and at this time showed a A genuine document confirms that at least six planes carried away members of the Binradin family on the 13th. And in another paper, through our look at the enormous interests between Bush and the Binradin family (on a single day last month, Carlyle earned $237 million selling shares in United Defense industries), Moore tells us implicitly: Because of this benefit, Bush tried to let bin Laden go, and in a later film and television material describing what the police should do in the face of criminal suspects, and an interview with retired FBI investigator Jack * Kunen, through Jack Kuhnen's take on the administration's handling of the post-9/11 suspects gave us a sense of the government's dysfunction, but also gave us a sense of Bush's failure as a president and Moore's derision of the administration at the time.
Some of the background music in the film also fully reflects Moore's sarcasm. In the Florida election, Moore used a fast-paced background music. Compared with the important election, it seems that it is in a state of indifference with the people. sarcasm. On Christmas Eve, it was supposed to be peaceful, but it was only after the aggression against others could be enjoyed that this moment of peace could be enjoyed. With such cheerful music, life would be lost at the same time, peace? ! Will it really be safe?
When 9/11 happened, Moore used a hormonal method and used a black screen for 1 minute and 8 seconds to give the viewer the feeling that after a long torment, there was no picture, and he could focus more on the source of the sound and imagine the scene at that time. After that, Moore did not shoot the wreckage of the building like others. He turned the camera to the expressions of amazement, fear and bewilderment of some ordinary people. At the same time, the sound was eliminated, accompanied by sad music, the intervention of music, It enhances people's feelings and has more impact than traditional shooting methods, which highlights the catastrophic nature of 9/11.
At the beginning of the Iraq War, the camera showed the happy lives of ordinary people in Iraq, and children were flying kites, but then, disaster struck. The strong contrast between the two shows the cruelty of the war. , saw the disaster the United States brought to Iraq because of this trumped-up charge, and saw the unreasonableness of the US government.
I think, fake or not, we all have to admit: this is a good movie.

Fahrenheit 9/11 quotes

  • Michael Moore: Meet John Ashcroft. In 2000, he was running for re-election as Senator from Missouri against a man who died the month before the election. The voters preferred the dead guy, so George W. Bush made him his Attorney General. He was sworn in on a stack of Bibles, 'cause when you can't beat a dead guy, you need all the help you can get.

  • Mature woman: Today on the news, Rumsfeld was saying and Wolfowitz was saying: "The Iraqi people are much, much better off. Isn't it better that we got rid of Saddam, and now the Iraqi people can do what they wanna do, and really be free?" Will they ever be free? No, they'll not be free. And where are the weapons of mass destruction? It was a - we were duped. We were really duped. And these poor people, the young men and women who are being killed there. It's unnecessary.
