I always use the tear point as one of the criteria for evaluating a good movie when I watch movies, because it shows that movie is a sensory art of love. When you see it, you feel like the experience of love in your life is condensed by the image. Of course, there are many factors that determine the level of the tear point. In summary, it depends on the balance of truth, goodness and beauty in your personality. Even if an actor wants to lie with tears, he still needs to mobilize his inner emotions. However, this masterpiece made me shed tears when it was put in a quarter, because Janet Gaynor played so well, she has looked very loving.
Although I pay special attention to the movement of the film and the scheduling of the scenes, I quickly enter the world of the protagonist unknowingly. However, from the opening to the 12th minute, there was a long shot enough to make the later Renoir, Bresson, Tarkovsky, Mizoguchi Kenji, Hou Xiaoxian and other scene scheduling masters temporarily turn into clouds. At that time, the man heard the whistle and went out to meet with Xiao San by the river. The panoramic camera follows the man’s back on a foggy grassland (where he will be lost), the full moon hangs above his head, the camera follows the shot and slowly advances the man’s back, the man walks across the bridge and turns to the right. Move to the right and follow to the right side. The man walks to the left. After moving to the back, the camera goes through the bushes and shoots the man’s left side. The man climbs over a fence. The camera has moved to the front of the man. The man walks towards the camera. Stop moving, roll over a 90-degree angle to become a man’s perspective, and then pass through the bushes to stop in a panoramic shot: the lover is waiting by the river with make-up, the moon reappears perfectly in the sky, and the man enters from the left side of the camera later, and finally Back to the omniscience perspective! In the face of the realism of the film's nature, montage is temporarily cool (cross-editing is used a lot). This mirror luck that makes me admire is only the beginning. I won’t talk about expressionism, impressionism, and surrealism. The use of these techniques has contributed to the artistry of Sunrise. What is a movie? Movies are about realizing fantasy.
In the city's drama, there are trams, streets, restaurants, churches, barber shops, photo studios, amusement parks, dance halls, and restaurants. After coming out of the church, the man and woman returned to their initial honeymoon state again, and from this, a series of Liu Bieqian-style warm comedies were launched, especially the headless sculpture in the photo studio, and the drunk piglet who was struggling to run. Just as we loved poor Charlie more after laughing at him, this is when the screenwriter can hurt you the most. Hitchcock famously said that the worse the bad guys, the more popular the movie. So the plot location loops back to the tram, and then back to the boat. The storm acts as a villain to kill the protagonist we empathize with. At a critical moment, an object that has been forgotten by everyone will change a little bit. Here is the place before. A bunch of reeds in the boat that plans to save himself after killing his wife. This is a foreshadowing that many movies will use, such as the iPod classic, the favorite movie of this year, Golden Dreamland. If he uses nano, he will die.
The sunrise has many strong visual contrasts and object metaphors, such as the moon and the sun. A man goes to see his lover on a full moon night. The full moon will be missing, indicating that men will lose their wives, and the sunrise sun also indicates that they will reunite. Success together.
Silent films that only tell stories in visual language (sounds have already appeared) are closer to my pure fantasy of movies. If I were born in that era, I would definitely follow Chaplin to defend silent films against the appearance of sound films. Unfortunately, next month, Cine Dore will play Woody Allen's film wildly for a month. If the silent film is recovered someday, he should be the first to be blocked.
Munau did not use the names of the heroes and heroines in the film, indicating his intention that what we feel in the film can be anyone's love. This doom also tells us that as long as we don't give up hope, we can get a perfect sunrise.
