F37: "Selma" ~ Director: Ava Dejolie ~ From the color tone to the makeup, you can't tell the difference at the beginning of the movie. This movie should be shot in what period. When the soundtrack is released, you will catch it. Now, only the current film, the recording of the music itself, and the fit with the film can be done so delicately. Obviously, the director wants the audience to remove the time distance and return to the 1960s in the United States to experience the black human rights movement. Hardships and perseverance ~ Martin Luther King, the Nobel Peace Prize winner, in the black human rights movement, he always worked hard with his life, fought with his life, and pursued the equality and equality that human rights deserve with the greatest energy. Power...~I just finished reading the book "Me and Akira Kurosawa" written by Japanese screenwriter Hashimoto Shinobu yesterday. Today's movie, I have an unprecedented experience, the movie is divided into segments, the origin and formation of each segment, each One's expressions and lines, the connection and advancement of paragraphs, and the gradual fullness of blood and flesh, support a touching movie~music and movie, in this, music also plays an important role, it directly Connected with that era, I think Americans should have a better understanding. It seems that I heard Bob Dylan's singing, maybe not, similar, in the early 1960s, he also shouted and cheered for people of color. At that time, young people needed to distinguish, be able to distinguish, and have different choices. Just imagine that time. In China's situation, a generation of people's will is confused, changed, weakened, and finally wiped out. The culture of that generation has become a vacancy and regret that can never be filled... ~ Speaking of music, listen carefully to the music of black people in the film. Every word comes from the appeal and desire of the soul. Substituting it into the film is another language of the film. There is a song on the Bellafonta Carnegie that I often listen to. This singer is also an activist of the black human rights movement. Although they have suffered from unfairness for a long time, in black music, there is a free rhythm. The music is Equality, human rights, should also be equal ~ This film, in the soundtrack, what I dislike the most is that after the parade, a young black man was shot and killed, and then Luther King went to comfort the 80-year-old grandfather In that bridge section, in the sad atmosphere, the low-pitched sound of the piano is coherent there. That sound, at this time, is too gorgeous. If it appears in a slight point-like manner to match the dialogue, gently floating, just continue a little sadness and strength. , that's enough ~ the best soundtrack, I also think that Luther King is listening to the part of the phone recording played by her wife, there is only dialogue, showing the helplessness of the two in silence, deeply grasping you, completely blank There is no soundtrack, only dialogue. Sometimes, less is more valuable than more. Silence is also a kind of voice ~ Director Ava Dejolie, a black female director, she has a familiar shadow on her body, but , I really have not seen her film, very good, very good director!
