A. God.
When the master reaches a certain level, he always tries to deconstruct some stories or ideas that Jiang Wen's meaning is not very easy to express in language. Comrade Jiang Wen's "The Sun Also Rises", of course, there is also the current "The Detective" by Master Du, and even a little further, Kusturica is thought of.
This is actually simple and clear when you think about it. When you reach a certain level, the society will stereotype you and the world will delineate comments. It is better to seek an extension of your own style rather than how to be perfect. Just like many of our daily work stages, the earliest purpose is how to tell a story clearly and clearly. At a certain stage, we are always thinking about how to express it more deeply, which is vague and vague, and allows you to reminisce. , and even have cautionary significance.
"The Detective" is undoubtedly such a movie. When the three masters To Qifeng, Wei Jiahui, and Liu Qingyun get together again, they must shoot a movie that makes the world cry, because so many people are watching.
Starting from the split personality, it makes people have illusions, just like "Fatal ID", the difference is that "Fatal ID" gives the surprise of the final ending, while "Detective" is constantly justifying itself, constantly throwing things, constantly picking up . This is a bit of a magical meaning, that is, expressing everyone's strength everywhere. The director is trying to convey in the use of the lens and editing; the screenwriter keeps giving various clues, and finally tries to connect; the actors are brave and unusual, from the tiny breathing to the outburst of emotions, they are all connected between movement and stillness. Everyone is expressing themselves, and Master Du even said that this is his most time-consuming film.
But is this all too much effort, and the effort is poor? The power of the three people is gathered together, and it should be a powerful force. And then when the power is used up a little, the film suddenly makes you feel a little incongruous, because you don't know where the focus is? This kind of movie, like "The Sun Also Rises", is not a movie for ordinary you and me. It needs to be slowly cut and played frame by frame. It needs to be played in a loop over and over again. It tries to express too many things. And there's no hidden clue that you can feel and perceive.
"Perfume" keeps moving forward with one death omen story after another, and "The Detective" put it bluntly, how much like Comrade Jiang Wen's "Looking for the Gun".
When God speaks, we can only listen.
B. Exploring the conversation.
Rolling out of the box, cutting ears, hallucinations, trying it out for yourself, reading the ghosts in other people's hearts, this is the detective Chen Guibin. In a person's world, only he is himself, and everyone else, every other person, has a hidden personality.
Gao Zhiwei threw the gun, looked for the gun, killed the police, and laid out. He Jiaan lost the gun, found the gun, killed, and laid out. The two different trajectories, one after the other, look so similar. It's just that one is a splitter with seven different personalities, and the other is just a crying child, but when the lines are the same, He Jiaan is actually the beginning of another Gao Zhiwei.
Of course, there is also that crazy, crazy detective Chen Guibin. What makes you ironic is that when the film ends, you can clearly feel that the world is actually crazy, and that crazy person is actually the normal you yearn for. Everyone loses their self for fame, fortune, ex-wife, He Jiaan, Gao Zhiwei, and He Jiaan's girlfriend. When everything enters your heart, you have a ghost in your heart.
In fact, the story seems complicated. He Jiaan asked for help from former detective Chen Guibin. For a police officer Wang Guozhu's disappearance, the missing policeman's gun committed several crimes in 18 months. In fact, it is simple. At that time, Gao Zhiwei lost his gun in the woods, and the Asian man picked it up. Gao Zhiwei killed Wang Guozhu and grabbed the gun, and used his gun to create chaos, and kept looking for the Asian man to get his gun back. He Jiaan lost the gun, borrowed it, and finally shot Chen Guibin. Everything started and ended because of the gun. There is cause and effect, there is nothing to follow.
Among them, Chen Guibin's magic lies in being able to see the ghosts in other people's hearts, and being able to perceive and personally try the mental state of criminals when they commit crimes. It seems crazy, but in fact, it is extremely sober. He lives in a world of his own making, because it is far more real than the outside world. When he said to his imaginary wife that they couldn't see you, his sobriety was detached from his previous knowledge.
It turns out that everyone's heart is a house, some live only by themselves, some live with seven completely different people, of course there is a couple, and the 13-year-old child. Everyone hides himself in his heart. Sin and evil are ghosts, and ghosts are themselves.
The god of the detective is that he can see ghosts; no matter how praised and derogated, this is a self-transcendence film, because even the point of view of focusing on it is only because you expect too much from it, and one day it will come again. When integrating this type of film, in addition to "Fighting Club", if this film can flash through my mind, it must be a matter of great merit.
Although God is arrogant, he can be complete and rich only if he has a probe.
