People who have seen this film will inevitably feel boring when they first watch it. The same is true for me. The speed of the film's action Very unusual silent films, complex interlaced films and very little dialogue, it is really hard to understand the language just relying on the actions of the actors, but after all, works of art must be experienced with heart, and as the story goes on, you can understand What is the purpose of discovering the foreshadowing pictures and shots buried under it:
the film really sticks to the theme of "Party fighting against differences", and it is inseparable from conspiracy theories. Every detail of the film fully reflects the history of human beings from ancient times to the present. Numerous complex emotions—happiness, love, hatred, justice, evil, contradiction, helplessness, etc., can cover all the emotions in the history of the film, and the characters of each story express their unique characters in the film. The wonderful language of the film adds a lot of color, and the exaggerated expression is one of the main points...
As Griffith himself described the film - the infinite rapids condensed from the four tributaries, the justice in the four stories. In the face of evil, people do not neglect at all, and bravely and intensely pursue the hope in their hearts, and develop to the final climax. It also uses a very classic editing technique, that is, the overlapping and alternating of several shots, and the tension is pushed to the peak. , People from all eras rushed to rescue non-stop, focusing the audience's attention to the end, making people have endless reverie.
Think about it in turn, the three stories in the film are all tragic endings, only one story is a perfect ending, and it happened in modern times, there is such a hint of metaphor in it,
Starting from the theme of the film, "the same party fights against differences", people stand on the conspiracy theory of class and become the victims of their pursuit of interests, justice stands on the evil side, and the people become the victims, isn't it talking about our old Has society always been looking forward to that peaceful day? With the development of the times, people all realize the importance of peace from historical records, but under the gaze of imperialism and the monopoly class, there is no doubt that blood will flow into the river. To explore this issue above the world, even if the film technology is overtime, but the theme is definitely a product of the times, four stories from Christians to moral associations, people's pursuit of peace and justice is more and more intense, the film is such a contrast to the theme Back to the actual desire for this video. The biggest foreshadowing in this film that cannot be ignored is the picture of the mother's cradle
. It appears in the film in a transitional role, but who knows how to understand its true meaning after a few lines of description?
Going backward for thousands of years, we can see the troubled times of Babylon, and when we look back, we can see an era of faith shrouded in darkness. People in every era were born from this small cradle. What will happen to the next generation born by the mother? A unique life experience? No one knows, everyone's story in each era is silent in thousands of years of historical monuments, insignificant and out of reach, the cradle is gently shaken as if it can wipe out the time. , The world is too big, it is impossible for us to see the stories and experiences of everyone in the past, and they are only left with regrets for the world and the
era of regret - they sacked mankind without reservation forever, we can't blame it, it can only Progress cannot go backwards, history can review accumulated experience, but it cannot detect the future development of human beings.
