The male protagonist and his father in the play are played by Kiefer Sutherland and Donald Sutherland respectively, so they are both in and out of the play. Old Sutherland's latest film that is well known to everyone should be "The Hunger Games Part 3", not to mention the old drama bones, let's talk about the performance of young Sutherland.
Sutherland's performance throughout the film is in a state of extreme restraint, but it does not give people the feeling of deliberately expressing restraint. As far as his performances are concerned, this restraint is relaxing and enjoyable for the audience. Whether it's the conversation he first met with his father, or the scene when he was away from his first love for a long time, the movie pictures are calm. But outside the screen of the movie, the attentive audience has already felt the magnificent waves bred during it. Whether it's a photo or a movie, this is extremely important.
The overall restraint makes the male protagonist's rare emotional outburst in the play even more dazzling.
Once, at dinner, the conflict of ideas between the godfather father and the son who was a soldier is a conflict that is often used in Hollywood movies. It is also a conflict between father and son. Compared with the collision between Feng Xiaogang and Wu Yifan in the movie "Old Paoer", the conflict between the godfather and the retired soldier is more brilliant and admirable.
Another time is in the church, the son, who is reluctant to express his feelings throughout the film, has a dialogue with his father when he confesses and confesses in the church. Little Sutherland leaned on his father's shoulder and cried in pain, showing a good example of how to cry as a man with a lot of past without being called a sissy. In addition, I want to say that as a real father and son in reality, will such a scene be embarrassing when filming? After all, if I were to cry on my father's shoulder... oh my god, that's too beautiful to watch~
The director did not give the protagonist bright clothes in arranging the costumes. Instead, it was full of dust, bearing the traces of the old days. From beginning to end, the male protagonist looked like an ordinary western cowboy. According to common sense, the duel is the perfect moment to express the hero's stalwart image, but let the hero wear old boots that he used to ride on. The photographer also specially gave a shot of the worn boots, which should be to show It expresses the complex mood of the male protagonist regaining the old golden horse.
The heroine is played by Demi Moore, and yes, she is also the heroine in "The Ghost Story" (1990). But, apparently she is the soy sauce character in this drama. In a movie with few lines in the first place, the dialogue of the supporting characters is of course even less pitiful. But I was still amazed when she drove the carriage from a distance.
Regarding the love part, the most touching part of the whole film is what the male protagonist said when the female protagonist finished saying that because she had not heard from the male protagonist for so many years, she could not wait to get married and wanted to explain something to the male protagonist. The male protagonist said, you don't have to say sorry for this. The moment the male protagonist exits, it can make people with a little movie reserve think a lot: the flying of the Titanic Rijk and Ruth on the bow, the sentence in Brokeback Mountain "If I knew how to abandon you, how good would it be? ", in Zhou Yu's train, "I have it in my heart, and I don't have it in my heart", Casablanca "There are so many cities in the world, there are so many taverns in the city, but she just walked into mine", and Farewell My Concubine's "No! It's a lifetime, a year, a month, a day, an hour is not a lifetime"... This sentence at that time is really better than a thousand words I love you. But love is generally expressed by another word in the world, it is called: regret.
Of course, the ending is not the ending in a fairy tale. The male protagonist has since left and has never been seen again. Only when the heroine died, on the second day of her burial, she secretly hung the token of her youth on the cross in the cemetery.
And the beautiful scenery comparable to the BBC documentary is another attraction of this film. The photographer's camera skills and Canada's enviable wilderness scenery are tantamount to giving moviegoers a gluttony.
