Image: Compared with the narrative nature of the story, the pure tones of black and white images tend to suggest the connotation of the story to the audience. Images can sometimes exist without the nature of the story, but they cannot lack connotation. Hitch expresses the connotation in "Butterfly Dream" The technique has basically achieved relaxation and relaxation, highlighting the advantages of black and white images.
Control: From selecting actors to on-site guidance, Hitchcock is good at using actors' performances (actions, postures, expressions, emotions, bodies) to drive and promote the audience's emotions. The two-line operation of image thinking promotes both parties in a common image environment (it doesn't matter. Both inside and outside the film) react and inspire each other. Facts have proved that this method also inspired the creative ideas of Truffaut and other filmmakers
Rhythm: The performance of the whole film is steady and stable, and the degree of completion is high, but it is easy to cause the rhythm to be procrastinated. If you can control the shooting, especially the editing, and apply subtraction to improve the narrative and increase the white space, the effect may be in the rhythm. will be better
Soundtrack: The eerily gorgeous, lively and throbbing dramatic soundtrack is one of the hallmarks of a typical Hitchcock movie, and the soundtrack has always been a wonderful addition to Hitchcock's films

The film is adapted from the novel of the same name by the British female writer Daphne Du Maurier, which involves suspense, love story and even reasoning. For this book, the author's own evaluation is: "The Butterfly Dream is about jealousy. A study of .” This can be used as a reference for this film. From this point of view, if the film is compared with this book, I personally think Hitchcock’s interpretation is richer in content, also because of the form of the image. more expressive than words
Turning point: The truth often does not match the audience's expectations or forms a turning point and contrast, creating a sufficient suspenseful atmosphere and suspense, which is a major feature of Hitch's films. The film reveals in the last 30 minutes why the hero is bewildered and helpless: a life full of lies and deceit makes him feel ashamed, hated and disgusted, so that he becomes sinful but trapped in it, falling victim to a certain era like the heroine. . At the end of the film, Hitchcock resorted to all the reality and illusion of the mandolin dream into a fire of the conspiracy "R". It can be said that the fire is growing, the dream has been extinguished
