The story is actually very much the love and friendship in the war of mainland Chinese goods, but it was filmed in 1927, and it is the ancestor of so many latecomers~~ Although the heroine of the unrequited love is a bit redundant, although The cute male third is also very deliberate, although the German pilots risk flying into the US Air Force base alone to report the death of a Yankee is very wishful thinking, although the performance has the typical grandiose of the silent film era, although there are too many unnecessary lines and subtitles. . . But a lot of battle scenes and aerial combat shots, a lot of montage shots, and a lot of baggage are enough to offset those shortcomings.
First of all, this is definitely a blockbuster. Between World War I and World War II, using so many aerial photos to show the war scenes on the ground and in the air, it is definitely a big production! !
Let’s talk about the language of montage:
to express the collision of planes, we use black projections;
to express the scenes of war, we use the superimposition of long and medium scenes
; The flirtatious eyes of various extras swept straight to the protagonist's happy face;
showing our hero returning home from the air force base, the camera switched from the rotating airplane propeller to the rotating train wheel~
As for the baggage:
the meteor runs through the whole film, From the hero and heroine's car to the hero's fighter plane to the real meteor, it is a representative of hope; the
bear and the photo are the lucky things for the heroines, representing the hero's fate;
eating half of the chocolate indicates that an accident will happen. comrades-in-arms; the star-spangled
flag shaking with the fat has American humor;
the most sensational is the lines of "all set?" "ok", as the "love" slogen of the two male protagonists, haha.
All in all, for a 1927 film, there are stories, scenes and idols, which is really amazing! !
