Spielberg's ordinary mind

A road horror movie in 1971, and a bunch of truck madmen of this type came out after 2000. Either a stuffed toy is hung on the car, or the interior decoration of the car is weird, which contrasts with the wild and sturdy truck. Basic real shots, individual composite scenes are very realistic, making the highway chase extremely tense, the environment is also open and unobstructed, the scorching sun, flying sand, wind and dry western wild scenes; the protagonist is set as an educated urban civilized social animal image, encountering things There will be a balance between elegance and decentness and power; the truck driver (evil) did not appear on the scene, creating a sense of mystery while also referring to avoiding labelling, paving the way for inner conflict-what you think is really not what you think; The setting of suspense changes. The audience abandoned the exploration of "Who is it?" and became interested in "Who wins". Among them, the climax of the car chasing scene used the classic soundtrack of "Scary", which is a tribute to "Xie Fat". The three train shots represent "blocking", "disturbance", and "duel" respectively. A restaurant scene is a bit playful, but it has a comprehensive effect on the hard-core car chase throughout the story, "like a dry sandwich with a little ketchup." The anger crit is only aimed at you while driving, and non-related characters are "free from people". In other words, you don't need a grand narrative to interpret people's hearts, but only use angry stand-alone emotions to smash to the end. Environments, facilities, and habits are different. Fear, worry, and angry emotions are the same. Moving the story to a "country in the east" is the same as calling the police, assisting, and witnessing everything. However, whether you can describe the response in a critical moment is another matter. I'm afraid to talk about the difference between ancient and modern highways and cameras along the way, but road rage, selfishness, and nasty high-speed crimes happen all the time. The early works of the masters have more connotation, after all, when there is no gorgeous coat, they can get closer to the beating heart. In fact, it is simple and hot.

    I really did not expect a road truck from start to finish! Although there are many other ways to deal with it, it's still hard to imagine how horrifying it would be to encounter such a thing on the road. . The invisible tension is about to come out, and if there is another reversal in the end, it will be really god

    The plot of the story is minimalist, but the way of expression is symbolic. Every one of us will be middle-aged, gradually being cut off by time, becoming weak and incompetent, timid, and always finding all kinds of excuses for ourselves, but the hideous and terrifying beast behind us But chasing us all the time and trying to swallow us alive. Spielberg's feature film debut, undulating but slightly boring.
