This year's Oscar-nominated Best Animated Feature Film uses simple lines, smooth editing, and meticulous plot settings to build a weekend movie for all ages.
Created in 2012, "Cat" does not pursue fine details like Hollywood animations in the past decade, but uses the simplest lines to outline the scenes and characters, which seems to bring us back to the childhood world in an instant. A colorful comic book for bulky children. But the use of simple lines does not mean the loss of verve. The expressions of characters, the construction of street scenes, and the movements of characters, including cats, are all well-drawn. There is absolutely no loss of quality. Become kitschy and cheap, full of watercolor, warm and bright.
As the protagonist, the Parisian black cat is a lazy little pet of Zoe, an autistic girl during the day. Zoe's father was shot to death by a gangster in an operation. The mother Claudine, who is also a police officer, has since tried her best to track down the prisoner, but she has ignored Zoe's death. growing up. When night falls, it and the city robber Nico shuttle between the rooftops of the city. Two unrelated lives, two people, day and night, meet naturally under the guidance of the little black cat.
One of the cuts in which the power outage saves people can be described as a stroke of genius. The whole process of shady scenes and the use of simple lines to outline the characters' movements is really too feel. The night chase as the main scene in the film reflects the architecture and night scenes of Paris. Incisively and vividly, the final fight fell on Notre Dame de Paris. Ironically, it was neither Nico nor Claudine who really killed the gangster Costa, but his own greed. The whole process was really stunned by Nico's cat-like skills, and the flowing style of painting.
The Jazz-style OST used in the whole film is also very lovable~~~~The album is endlessly looping~~~
