To this day, for movies, color plays a pivotal role, and can often become an important auxiliary tool to set off the atmosphere and render the situation. It also has certain key symbolic and expressive functions, which play an indispensable role in the promotion and appeal of the story. It can even reveal a certain figurative tone of the film, but sometimes the effect of black and white pictures is far better than the impact and shock of color, and it can eliminate all interference and influence on visual experience. In this film, the pictures It provides a lot of assistance, the pure picture quality, the oppressive and terrifying atmosphere in black and white, and you can feel the psychological and ideological changes of the characters in the film more deeply. Carefully feel its strong fluctuations and gain insight into the director's intentions. Without any obvious horror features, the director completely relies on the setting of the scene atmosphere to intensify the horror that originates from reality and is rooted in society, making people have an instinct. And desperate fear. The insertion of several colored fragments in the film is also more prominent, adding a touch of soft understanding, abstract metaphors and hints of partial expectations.
The film tells the story of a reporter who wanted to pretend to be crazy and sneak into a mental hospital to investigate a case, so he came to win the Pulitzer Prize for journalism. Under the crazy environment, step by step, he completely fell into the torture of spiritual oppression and became a member of the irony. Fuller has always been like a profound and ruthless observer with a sharp scalpel, walking firmly and decisively to the depths of the stubborn diseases of society, and through his own unique symbolism and stern style, he has made it clear and clear. It is cut open, naked and meticulously displayed in front of the audience. The story in the film revolves around the reporter. From him, we can see how the cruel influence of the environment changes the mind of a normal person, while Enviro Fuller uses an extreme extreme space as a metaphor for society, transforming reality into reality. Terror is ruthlessly embodied in the body of the individual, which has three very typical role symbols involved in the case.
The three characters represent war, race and technology respectively. They have always been sensitive social issues and potential threats with powerful hidden dangers. It can be seen that Fuller used their past violent impact on these three points that they could not bear. Under the persecution and persecution, the crazy consciousness identified ups and downs and distorted transformations as the most direct and sharp means to criticize and criticize reality. One fell victim to the war who suffered from the contradictions of political demands and ideas, and the other was under strong racial contempt. This great mental torment has made him crazy (a very bad, extremely harsh irony in the corridor with a hood to replace the role), a culprit who can't look directly at his scientific achievements and become a brutal culprit, and hides in the original beautiful subconscious. The scientist who washes away his guilt. A lot of people think that this kind of highlighting with a clear purpose is a bit too subjective, but I think such a precise way of expression is more contagious. Only in order to find a cure for the disease at a fast and accurate rhythm, can we consciously avoid and prevent it out of "health".
The reporter was sent to a mental hospital for pretending to molest his sister (actually his girlfriend), and in the end he was really controlled by this subconscious recognition and struggled. From time to time, his girlfriend hovered in his mind with a seductive and seemingly betrayal gesture. The subtle trigger of the reporter's spiritual changes, and the quarrel and disagreement between the girlfriend's work and the reporter's ideals, on the other hand, also reflects people's strong desire for noble status symbols and contempt for the subjective consciousness of the stage. From stepping in full of confidence, to seeing the walking corpses that are tortured in all kinds, after getting to know each other and communicating, nurturing hallucinations, imaginings, panic, and finally the collective collapse of physical and mental exhaustion, electrotherapy and hydrotherapy are omnipotent, absurd behavior The characteristics that fill the psychiatric hospital continue to breed, so it seems that the smallness of the human individual is always difficult to hold the ability to change the environment, and will only be transformed by the environment in the end. The final picture is frozen in that deep and quiet corridor, and there are only "living dead" who have lost their vigor and soul with dull eyes and expressionless faces, and are ruthlessly captured by reality and plunged into ecstasy.
The camera suddenly turned, and under the rainy corridor, the reporter fell into a crazy situation, which was a reflection of his heart. The depression and pain that had nowhere to vent completely defeated him, and he was madly determined to find the self-righteous murderer, and the "murderer". "The hard-working part is quite shocking. A reporter who made up a story just to find a murderer in a mental hospital is really crazy. What a profound irony and thought-provoking. Until the end of the film, there was no hope, only absurd horror, indifference and horror, and Fuller's attitude of not placing any expectations has the powerful power of an atomic bomb, in the hearts of the viewers. The outbreak leaves no room for it, gives the most severe impact, cleanly and boldly removes the hypocritical face of the society, and shows the strong hand of the rotten face without hesitation. At the end of the film, the familiar subtitles appeared again, and suddenly there was another emotion. There is no god horse more destructive than the complete disintegration of the spiritual world, but the reality has repeatedly penetrated into the weakness of people and deprived them of hope. The God who passed between them only sighed "Hey".
