Nowadays, if someone says that they have never watched "Angel Loves the Beautiful", they will definitely be criticized as uneducated and unqualified. Uh, of course the old man has seen it, but to be honest, I didn’t understand the story of this movie, I just remember it in the movie. There are some fantastic events in the sky, and Tatu's round eyes are so big that they can take up half of the face. In contrast, I like the other movie "Black Shop Rhapsody" even more by Rene, because it is a simple love story. The poor boy fell in love with the butcher’s daughter, plus the whimsical thoughts in the process. A very classic and interesting black humor movie.
Rene is a very low-yield director. He has been in the film industry for more than ten years. He has only four or five works. Except for Alien 4, which is almost negligible for the director, several other French works (including long marriage contracts) Both give people a bright feeling. I think René and Kustrika are actually very similar, both relying on the fantasy and imagination of real life to direct movies. Not many people have seen Renai's film debut "Tong Meng Lost Soul Night", but most of the people who have seen it have been deeply convinced by it, which naturally includes me.
The story of "Tongmeng Lost Soul Night" is very vague, I won't go into details. Generally speaking, in the city, there is an evil doctor who kidnap various children in order to steal their dreams. One day, a carnival. The younger brother of the Hercules in the paradise, Ayi (not the killer, the English name should be ONE) was also abducted by the one-eyed man hired by the doctor. In order to save his brother, Ayi, with the help of the beautiful girl Mina, did everything Qi Yu finally successfully eliminated the doctor's criminal group and successfully rescued his brother and other children.
Does watching the storyline think this movie is very ordinary? Very boring? Anyone can write stories, they can write smoothly and fluently, but not everyone can shoot them exquisitely. Da Vinci’s story is good for everyone, but the movie is half-failed. The thunderstorm’s story is thrilling, but Zhang Yimou’s The most classic and most admirable part of "Night of Child Dreams Lost Souls" is filmed into a tuft of golden rice fields. The most admirable part of "Children’s Dreams of Lost Souls" lies in the director’s horse Xingkong's conjecture that day, coupled with amazing whimsical ideas. A picture with a mysterious look, when the Living Spirit God is now in front of you, you can only say obediently: This TM is too creative.
In the design of the scenes and characters, Renei and his partners have worked hard to create a dreamlike magical atmosphere. The background of the story is a lonely city cold rolling across the sea, without any background. With the characteristics of the times, it is always a dark night city, palm-printed chaotic streets, dim and swaying light, Santa Claus falling from the chimney, exquisite little toys, Gothic dark and blurred rooms, the whole movie is re-started To the end, there was a kind of excitement that made people disappointed. That's right, the cold tones and the transformed scenes felt cool and exciting. Under such a scene full of death, the characters appearing are even more bizarre and dreamy. These characters with a surrealistic fantasy appearance appear one after another, starting with the face of the strange child at the beginning, and then four. Sons of the same model but very different expressions and personalities, dwarf women, doctors with slippery heads like Russian pebbles, then strong men with huge faces, one-eyed men wearing alien-like video analyzers, even The twin sisters, who are like gay alcoholics but have the trick of killing people with mosquitoes, and the charming girl in the bar and the proprietress with huge boobs, all odd and strange, they can only admire how expressive the director is. Excellent, extraordinary, unexpected, and superb.
Many people must be deeply impressed by the sex scene musical in "Black Shop Rhapsody". In the movie "Children", there is also a super crazy design. On the bridge, Ah Yi was controlled to strangle Mina because of poisoning. At this moment, Meina’s tears flew out with pain, her tears flew across the bridge, crossed the street, and fell into a bird cage in a certain room. The parrot cried in excitement. Tuo guano happened to fall on the front glass of a certain car. The car lost control and hit the fire hydrant. Then the water jet splashed into the bar. The naked girls came out from the bar. The workers who were repairing the electric lights on the opposite side were dazzled. Beware of the short circuit, so the whole city was powered off and the lighthouse went out. By coincidence, a huge ship drove by. Because it lost its instructions, it rumbling and crashed into the bridge. Mina and Ah Yi fell into the water, and Ah Yi was detoxified by the water and became sober. Coming over, the two were saved. . . . Enough for the bridge section of Niucha. . A friend used to say that French humor is cold-tuned, and it makes you laugh inadvertently. I think Rene’s sense of humor is super imaginative, and he likes to bring many chain reactions to one point. Naturally, it is very significant and effective. The pictures are strangely yin and yang, the characters become more severe, and the contrast becomes greater. It is like an old man who is serious about telling jokes. The more he thinks about it, the more funny it becomes. .
I believe that many people will feel dizzy when watching this movie, and even don’t like such a dark and blurred style (Uh, Tim Burton should have more people like it), compared to "Black Shop Rhapsody" and "Angels Love Beautiful" "The Night of Lost Souls in Children’s Dreams" pays more attention to the volatilization of imagination. Although it is not as mature as Renei’s later works, it has an unconstrained imagination. The whole movie has a large sense of space, from the design of the props to the characters. From the characters to the humorous stage, they exude a joyful sense of cheering and joy, coupled with the amazing dream scenes from the beginning to the end, make people admire the director's imagination. .
Imagination is the most important thing in a movie. It is the soul of a good movie. Without imagination, it is dull and dull, like an old and disabled beauty. In this era when big blockbusters are flooding, it is better to use the name of dating a beautiful woman. To watch those blockbuster movies that are empty when you walk out of the theater, it is better to sit on the sofa and find some unexpected good movies. These movies may become a deposit in your mind for days, months, or even years. Once I think of the scene in the movie, I can think about it for a long while, and occasionally take it out to make a woman happy, which is even more a good weapon to ascend to heaven. In short, it is not your fault to miss a good movie. If you are dumbfounded and wait to find it, it is your fault.
