A very delicate movie, I still think Fergus and Jodi in the glass studio are the most core part of this movie. Here laid the theme of the whole movie, the kindness in human nature. The story of the frog and the scorpion is placed in this movie, which has a kind of props throughout, always emphasizing the soul of the movie.
The film has a good sense of rhythm, very delicate and gentle like water. Even the shots and explosions showed a touch of warmth. "The kindness of human nature", just write a script on such a theme. If it were me, how would I write it? This is the question I think after watching the movie. The whole movie of "Crying Game" is set in the context of the conflict between the United Kingdom and Ireland. Through the assassination, it tells the kindness in human nature, and uses a special angle and method to exquisite. Unfold. After reading it, I think this story is very implosive, using cruel emotional stories to explore human nature and accuse of war. After watching the movie information, it is true that "Crying Game" won 6 Oscar nominations, and won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. From Fergus's point of view, he is kind and unwilling to engage in assassinations with people in the organization, and the emotional foreshadowing of the drama in the glass booth is very heavy. I think the dialogue between Fergus and Jody is very classic. The kindness of the two people attracts the soul of each other. The black British soldier looks tall and mighty, but very gentle. The design of the lens here is also very good. Recently, I have paid more attention to the shooting method of the dialogue lens. The director is still more meticulous here. As the kidnapper, Fergus has a large space for activities and a relaxed viewfinder, which shows that he is a free identity. As a hostage, Jody’s viewfinder is compact, and the space inside the lens is filled with walls and other debris, indicating that Jody is restrained. One of the shots was very interesting. When Fergus was close to Jodi, the director used a Dutch tilt lens, which was very dynamic in an instant. It seemed that the camera did not move, but Fergus lowered his head and approached Jodi. , There is a kind of metaphorical effect, Fergus has accepted Jody from the psychology. The director is very good at choosing actors, and Stephen Wy wrote the word "innocent" all over his face. His performance is very much in line with the mood of the entire character, "a man of kind nature". In the subsequent narrative, it was the climax of a rhythm, that is, the chase in the forest. I like this shot very much. The original serious environment has a feeling of tearing in an instant. In fact, the feelings have changed deeply here. Both of them are Frogs are all frogs that cannot be made to harm others.
But the most interesting thing is why this story will add Dier's role (some translations are called Dier). Some people think it is a same-sex movie after watching this movie, but I don't think it is. At least from the entire film narrative, the director's visual focus is not on expressing same-sex feelings, but chooses her/him as a side to emphasize the theme of "natural goodness" (NO human nature is good). The details here are quite rich. With Dill, the man exists as the "evil" and "possessive" party, and then gradually expresses the deep relationship between him/her and Jody. Fergus is also to understand for the promise. What kind of person is Jody to find Dill? The triangle structure of his own emphasizes the theme of "kindness by nature", but this way of expression is very pleasant. Choosing a very special person, a very peripheral person to express may receive better results.
There was a scene that was very delicate, and made a behavioral expression of expressing subtle feelings between the same sex and opposite sex-after discovering that Dill was a male, Fergus began to vomit. It shows that Fergus is not a homosexual. At first, I thought Fergus would be bent. After all, the front lens was so gentle. But here is still very surprising, the explanation here and the final ending express a feeling that is not love between the same sex but it is very tense. Perhaps the best feelings between people are not love, but the tremor that can fit together in the soul. The relationship between Fergus and Dier falls into this category.
There must be mention of Jay Davidson's performance, which is very, very amazing, and there is a feeling of indistinguishable gender. Except for her voice is a bit thick, she looks like a daughter in other aspects, and I thought it was a female a few times. Especially the eyes and lips are too much like a daughter's body. The performance is very good, watch and enjoy.
Finally, I have to talk about music, how important such nuanced movies are. Gentle music, coupled with the slow transition from close-up to close-up, is definitely an excellent way to lyricize.
