Redemption of the Outlaws
——The movie "My Heart is Wild"
Judging from the subject matter, this is a typical road movie, with a pair of wild-hearted outlaws spilling an unstoppable tide of love. But director David Lynch is not willing to tell such a mediocre story. The film has a strong director's personal color, which mixes multiple elements such as weirdness, horror, hallucination, violence, eroticism and blackness. A large number of unreal images are like an undulating stream of emotional consciousness, which externalizes the emotions of the characters. Perhaps because of this, Lynch's images always make people use "unconscious and severe" to describe them. David Lynch, known as the "Floyd of the film industry", is often accompanied by subconscious activities that are both real and illusory, just like a movie, just like a dream, but also very real.
The film won the Palme d'Or at Cannes that year. David Lynch, an independent director, upholds a strong personal style and does not compromise on the impact of mainstream films. On top of the typical Hollywood story routine, it is drastic and sculpted.
Don't procrastinate, go straight to the main line of the story, while the unexplained storyline is prompted by several nightmarish flashbacks. On the one hand, it is the clue conditions that promote the rationality of the story, and on the other hand, it brings out the uneasy emotions of the characters. The singing in the form of stage sense is Lynch's consistent ritualized scene, deliberately creating a dramatic stage, or the seductive or ghostly female characters occasionally exchange affectionate glances with the audience, which is quite Brecht's "distancing effect". mean. The dark and gloomy tones present a bizarre image world. A large number of night scenes are the best choice for creating a horror and thriller atmosphere. The lighting is dim or dazzling, all with strong psychological hints, with bloodthirsty noises, screaming , The rustling ambient sound, the director deliberately created a terrifying and terrifying environment, arousing the nerves of the audience, making people unable to stop.
Symbolic metaphor is also one of Lynch's styles. Sometimes there will be some "non-plot-related elements" in the film, or a small prop, or a quick shot, with obvious colors. There are many close-up slow-motion shots of matches wiping bright smoke in the film. The sound is amplified, and the fireworks are fluttering, full of charm. Fire - is the burning of desire, the wildness of the heart, the passion that is like fire. Smoke is a confused and restless emotion, a repressed escape, and a stray thought. The film also jokingly inserted several illusions, the dark witch imagined by the woman and the romantic fairy in the mind of the man. The former set off the gloomy color of this escape, while the latter has a kind of "awakening from a big dream" and "the prodigal son turns back." " for comedic effect.
The fearlessness of the desperados seems to show the desires of people's heart naked in front of them. A road escape is also accompanied by an endless erotic frenzy. The bright red and sexy lips, the looming lace outfit, the slender twisting ketone body, and the blond makeup make the lust and sexuality lingeringly fettered, and make the passion and the flesh climb the pleasure. This expression of pure lust is full of formal beauty and sensibility Bless. Sex is not only sex for the protagonist, it is also heavily blessed by character, character culture, and even worldview. Throughout the film, and then think from their own gender. Sexual desire is more complex than other desires. It is at a delicate tipping point, where sight, hearing, smell, and touch, as well as psychological conditions and other unknowable factors are simultaneously manipulated, and it is possible to produce rational and desirable "Come on" feeling.
Suddenly remembered Henry Miller's world-famous adage - "When you feel lost and confused, make love."
