Standing Today's Comment on "The Very Suspect"

If the classic film is to create a new model, then the historical status of this film is absolutely beyond doubt.
However, like many classic films that have been repeated and repeated again and again, after many years, people can only miss it from the perspective of historical status and can no longer directly get a great spiritual impact from it.
Just like the first movie that uses a long lens, the first movie that disrupts the chronological narrative, the first movie that uses three-dimensional or computer special effects, etc., once many techniques are innovated, they will immediately become popular. The imitating of, may even end up so bad that even TV dramas are constantly being used.
The innovation of this film in the suspense film can probably be attributed to two points:
1. The most innocent people are bad guys. Don't mention Conan now, even the young Bao Qingtian knows that there is such a suspense. He has changed from innovation to routine. Maybe someone who looks like a bad person becomes a bad talent
. 2. The ending overturns all known assumptions in the whole article. Mystery movies and mystery movies are like mind games. It is a great pleasure for the audience to think about the answers from the given information. At the end of this film, I suddenly told everyone, "What else do you want? Don't think about it, it's all for fun, all the details are edited by Kint". Except for the corpse, and a Caesar's name, what happened in the middle is not true. When everyone found out that they were being fooled like the police, they couldn't help but praise them. But now this point has also been commonly imitated. It is not new to tell a fake story in the film first, and there are even many boring movies that are fudged for the sake of flickering.
As a result, this movie is about to be put into the museum. It's as if parents were shocked by the kissing scenes and countless sets of beautiful women's clothing when they watched "Love in Lushan". Now, who still thinks these are rare.
The film model is like science and technology, after all, is constantly innovating, transforming the world, developing vigorously, and finally waiting to be replaced by new models or technologies.
Therefore, there is no need to sigh or slander such classic old movies too much.
People today can see farther because they stand on the shoulders of their predecessors.
