20130809 I watched it for the second time. When I read Cao Changqing's article on "Left and Right", when he talked about Kenzaburo Oe's views on the Iraq-Afghanistan war, I had a strong idea of ​​re-watching this film. At this time, I had gradually turned to the right. . I went to IMDB to read a lot of film reviews before watching, and the film reviews are as full of sincerity as I remembered. I occasionally opened the wiki and circuit diagrams to help understand. I am more familiar with it, and it is not like the first time except for collisions. As far as I know, this is also the first time I watched this period and focused on watching some 911 films to understand the result of this matter.

Except for occasionally looking at the wiki and going to the toilet in the middle of the picture, and reading it in one breath, it is still so shocking.

    [A] Another breakthrough of Green Grass under the combination of hand-held photography and quick editing of the signboard. In this film, the "thriller" element was deliberately added. The first half an hour cuts in from the perspective of ordinary life, and promotes the plot slowly and steadily. Then cut into the information point of the hijacking, and constantly pushed the movie-watching mood to the peak, and then broke out in the 9.11 incident. But unlike normal thrillers, the director doesn't give the audience any respite until the end. In the rest of the time, Green Grass once again demonstrated his ability to process excess dialogue information. Hand-held photography and quick editing intervened in the processing of lines all the time, and constantly detonated emotional points from the dual perspective of audio and visual. A plethora of information to keep the audience on their toes in a simple, crude and effective way (depending on who uses it, of course). The top-level mise-en-scene ability in a small space, the intensified camera shake and line information, and the delicate editing point processing have pushed the atmosphere of the film to its climax. However, the handling at the end gave me a great sense of gap. This shock and despair, which are both contrasted by images and reality, made me feel extremely disappointed.
