The style of Scorsese's works has changed a lot. "Taxi Driver", which began to enter the heyday of creation, has a strong experimental nature, and gradually formed a unique and harsh image style in "Angry Bull". However, "The King of Comedy" of this period seems to be a well-established and mature work, a black drama with sharp criticism of social phenomena.

Since the mid-1970s, Scorsese's creative trends have become a kind of sociality in accordance with the uneasiness of American society and culture, that is, using images to make social criticism. "Taxi Driver" and "Angry Bull" embodies strong pessimistic anti-heroism. "The King of Comedy" is relatively relaxed. It targets the phenomenon of TV culture and uses very ironic elements in it. Plot settings. Parkin wanted to be a celebrity on a TV talk show. After being snubbed and teased by his TV idol, he kidnapped the idol together with the crazy star chasers, and got the opportunity to perform on stage at the cost and became famous in one fell swoop. Parkin is a very neurotic character, and a lot of dialogue is used in the film to express this character. This character has been talking constantly from the beginning of his debut, thinking that he is completely intoxicated in his personal dreams. This setting is a manifestation of idealization, an abstraction of traditional American success. After Parkin puts his hope on his idol Longford, he shattered this dream. And Parkin's subsequent crazy behavior is also a typical portrayal of the post-Vietnam War era in the United States. This extreme method is very naive in nature, but it has become a method of personal resistance and has won unexpected results. For Scorsese, he must use this to illustrate the impact of boring TV culture, but also to reflect that the individual people are impetuous and depressed, and there is no way out. This setting is very different from his previous two films. Scorsese handled it very calmly. Although the description is full of humor but not kitsch, it has a different kind of power. First of all, the behaviors of the characters are extreme, condensing and exaggerating social phenomena; in addition, all the performances are real, which is the self-catching of the characters with this environment and personality. Therefore, if Parkin shares the stage with celebrities in his own imagination, accepts the applause of the audience, or Langford faces the day-to-day shows and loud questions of audience harassment, it is the director's personal expression of the real society. It also adopts the technique of alternate appearance of reality and fantasy. A confused dislocation enhances the comedy meaning of the film, and this sharp contrast also enhances the power of irony. It is understandable that the final ending is also a kind of comparative irony. It is impossible to judge the authenticity of this kind of dream, so the hope given becomes a kind of helplessness, a seemingly dull reunion and a hidden mystery.

From the point of view of shooting techniques, "The King of Comedy" is generally very calm. Scribes uses traditional American movies, as he himself said, the Edwin Porter style of expression, without close-ups, and shooting with documentary methods without statements. Therefore, the whole film is very stable and objective. The filming technique established by Skerses during this period is very related to his socialized themes. In "Angry Bull", he emphasized the beauty of the scene setting, while returning to "The King of Comedy", it was much flattering. Most of the mirror images shown are from the author’s personal perspective, which not only shows what you see, such as follow-ups on the street, simple switching, scene browsing, and more on the sidelines. De Niro and Scorsese have just gone through the arduous process of "Angry Bull", especially the fatigue of violent fat gain, but the performance is still wonderful. For this kind of exaggerated and funny role, he has performed equally well, although some scenes are displayed. Slightly overdone. Jerry Lewis gave a perfect performance, made great jokes, and some impromptu speeches were great. The film reproduced the production process of the TV show at the time, trying to make this fictional show appear real.

This film is the precipitation of a creative climax for Scorsese. Personal inspiration and achievements will inevitably encounter obstacles and bottlenecks when suddenly rushing to the top. A relatively calm and mature work can play a role in alleviating it. , In order to establish the style, that is, thinking with personal images and criticizing the society.

    Laughing makes my stomach hurt. Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime!

    Sr. Martin was overlooked as a highly completed masterpiece. After Lennon was assassinated, he had multiple satirical contrast effects on celebrities and fans. The first few edits of fantasy and reality and the studio and the kidnapping scene were excellent. The reaction of the suspected sneak shots on the streets of New York and the film also have a separate effect. At the end, the unreality of being released from prison in the blurred TV screen proclaims the falsehood of the media. De Niro is the king of acting in my mind. The Beijing Film Festival 4K repaired Zhongguancun.

The King of Comedy quotes

  • Rupert Pupkin: I know, Jerry, that you are as human as the rest of us, if not more so.

  • Rupert Pupkin: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Let me introduce myself. My name is Rupert Pupkin. I was born in Clifton, New Jersey... which was not at that time a federal offense. Is there anyone here from Clifton? Oh, good. We can all relax now. I'd like to begin by saying... my parents were too poor to afford me a childhood. But the fact is that... no one is allowed to be too poor in Clifton. Once you fall below a certain level... they exile you to Passaic. My parents did put the first two down payments on my childhood. Don't get me wrong, but they did also return me to the hospital as defective. But, like everyone else I grew up in large part thanks to my mother. If she were only here today... I'd say, "Hey, ma, what are you doing here? You've been dead for nine years!" But seriously, you should've seen my mother. She was wonderful. Blonde, beautiful, intelligent, alcoholic. We used to drink milk together after school. Mine was homogenized. Hers was loaded. Once they picked her up for speeding. They clocked her doing 55. All right, but in our garage? And when they tested her... they found out that her alcohol had 2% blood. Ah, but we used to joke together, mom and me... until the tears would stroll down her face... and she would throw up! Yeah, and who would clean it up? Not dad. He was too busy down at O'Grady's... throwing up on his own. Yeah. In fact, until I was 13 I thought throwing up was a sign of maturity. While the other kids were off in the woods sneaking cigarettes... I was hiding behind the house with my fingers down my throat. The only problem was I never got anywhere... until one day my father caught me. Just as he was giving me a final kick in the stomach for luck... I managed to heave all over his new shoes! "That's it", I thought. "I've made it. I'm finally a man!" But as it turned out, I was wrong. That was the only attention my father ever gave me. Yeah, he was usually too busy out in the park playing ball with my sister Rose. But today, I must say thanks to those many hours of practice my sister Rose has grown into a fine man. Me, I wasn't especially interested in athletics. The only exercise I ever got was when the other kids picked on me. Yeah, they used to beat me up once a week... usually Tuesday. And after a while the school worked it into the curriculum. And if you knocked me out, you got extra credit. There was this one kid, poor kid... he was afraid of me. I used to tell him..."Hit me, hit me. What's the matter with you? Don't you want to graduate?" Hey, I was the youngest kid in the history of the school to graduate in traction. But, you know, my only real interest right from the beginning, was show business. Even as a young man, I began at the very top collecting autographs. Now, a lot of you are probably wondering... why Jerry isn't with us tonight. Well, I'll tell you. The fact is he's tied up. I'm the one who tied him. Well, I know you think I'm joking... but, believe me, that's the only way... I could break into show business... by hijacking Jerry Langford. Right now, Jerry is strapped to a chair... somewhere in the middle of the city. Go ahead, laugh. Thank you. I appreciate it. But the fact is, I'm here. Now, tomorrow you'll know I wasn't kidding... and you'll think I was crazy. But, look, I figure it this way. Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime. Thank you. Thank you.
