The last time I watched Inglourious Basterds, the sly German officer's appearance always lived in my mind. It's not that I started to become his fan. I just think of that face from time to time, it's very strange. Later, I summed up that he was too stealing the show, so he pulled the handsome Bradna out of his eyes and ignored it. Christopher Waltz. nice name.
Back to this one.
First, summarize the simplest questions:
1. As the old saying goes, people rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles. How can the old saying be so true.
2. Power comes from the barrel of a gun. No matter how much potential you have, how many knives you can throw in your eyes, no one in your hand will be beaten.
3. Find a good mentor to graduate perfectly.
4. Don't force people to shake hands easily.
At the beginning of the film, when Django staggers down the road with a group of black slaves with a naked upper body scarred from being whipped, the music that accompanies it is simply the death of Jesus, or some kind of old-fashioned music. Mean epic drama, I was thinking, could it be that this black guy in the chicken coop is a prince in trouble?
There are a lot of insertions in the whole soundtrack, and I am very happy to hear it. Imagine again: the musicians each took a cigar, swayed and played in the midst of cigarette smoke, and picked up the wine at hand when they were thirsty.
This is an old-fashioned western, with guns, horses, black slaves, an old-fashioned hero saving a beautiful woman, with an old-fashioned legend in between.
Although there is an old and handsome Leonardo in this play, and Jamie Foxx who has a supermodel figure, if I have the opportunity, I will still dedicate the flowers in my hand to the dentist --- Christopher Waltz. Congratulations, he succeeded in stealing the show again.
I really love his nonsense. He threw the top-bored gun to the handcuffed nigger casually like it was just a lollipop. He let the black slave, who had the same status as the animal at the time, ride the high-headed horse to swagger across the market, and he seemed to be unaware, and smiled back when passersby looked at him. He took Django out for a beer and threw the unserving shopkeeper out the door, then clapped his hands and went about his business. He still didn't forget to ask for the bounty when a dozen guns were pointed at his head, causing Django next to him to sigh helplessly. . . I really laughed.
The dentist is like the teacher Sprint in the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the big mouse, he packaged the humble little turtles as a big god and taught them survival and rules. His initial image was not so positive, and even the way he made money was bloody. He was never soft on his own goals, basically headshots without blinking, and he didn't take into account the current environment. He completely took the order as the standard, and then simply took the money and left. The whole process was just a complete assembly line operation. Because those are the real bad guys. But when the unarmed black slave was tortured, he couldn't help but jump up willfully, imagining that he would be redeemed in the big devil's manor. He accidentally showed his kind and naive side. And the paradox is that when Django was full of aura on the way to the manor, he turned back and quietly reminded Django to keep a low profile and go back alive. But it turned out that at that moment, it was him who made the immature actions.
The dentist is a ranger, like a combination of Huang Laoxie and Zhou Botong. In one respect, he has a coldness that is different from ordinary people, or is good at controlling emotions, but when he touches a certain point of him, he has a softness that is more vigorous than ordinary people, because he cannot be completely numb. He didn't know whether the remaining humanity was a good thing or a bad thing for him.
In the end, he was finally shot by someone else's gun. It was not unexpected, but it was very sad. The ending of this character was normal under Quentin's camera.
As for Django, he is like Sun Wukong who is pinned under the Wuzhi Mountain. Kong has a good ability but can't use it. One day, a dentist appeared like a visitor from heaven and released his shackles. In the beginning, Django was just an ordinary black slave, or he could be handsome, in better shape, and have a wife who can speak German. But one day, love buds, they hope to have their own life, this dream is too fragile and fragile, so they have to pay a heavy price each. In that era, one could not have ideals or dream about such an identity. Thinking too much would only destroy oneself. In fact, when it comes to the present, isn't it that nothing has changed? The locks on Django's hands and feet are also on each of us, heavy but invisible, but we are already used to being bound and unable to break free. Fortunately, there is someone here to help him.
Django's aura is too strong, from the moment he got on the horse, and then cleaned up from beginning to end, he was completely reborn. At first, the dentist only wanted to find a guide, complete the task and send the money away, until he found that Django seemed to be a hero who came out of that legend. The dentist seemed to be slowly fascinated by him. Moreover, his superb marksmanship, natural killer temperament, and the strong self-confidence of squinting at those little whites are really fascinating. I feel like Django is the most unreal character in this movie. With the smallest birth, he finally turned that huge dream into reality. When Django was bound again to be thrown into the predicament again, the spirit of the doctor seemed to have migrated into Django's body. It seemed that Django saved himself successfully, but all his routines were taught to him by the doctor. He, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly made up the nonsense in an orderly manner, especially the part showing the general order, as if the doctor was leaning in his ear and teaching him word by word.
Finally, with the raging fire burning behind him, he led the beloved woman on the road. Rise from the ashes.
Leonardo of Candy Farm. Here I can only rank him as No. 3 male, which is actually not bad. The owner of the manor is a very simple person, just the willful, arrogant and mindless of the second generation who is simply brutal and rich. All he wants is sensory stimulation to satisfy his seemingly luxurious but pale life. Leonardo's acting skills are not lost, it's good enough, but this character has not many layers and is a little thin, as long as he shows his brutal side is enough. Also, he originally came out in the latter stages, just to fulfill Django's nirvana rebirth.
In fact, I have never understood why he had to shake hands with the doctor, was he just stubbornly controlling? Or is there something ambush there? I was very nervous when the doctor was wandering around the door. I was really worried that some mechanism would suddenly be activated, such as flying knives, flying arrows, etc., alas, the result of reading too many idle books. . . But unfortunately, he met a person with a mental cleanliness, and he was killed without warning.
The biggest villain in this manor should be the old black slave. It should be said that he no longer regards himself as a black slave. He regards himself as the master and Leonardo as his child, or to show what he wants. What he does is more vicious than the white people, all of which are to emphasize the difference in identity, to make everyone afraid of him, not only the black slaves in the manor, but also the white people. But what he did did not get all the rewards, the young master of the manor was still the young master, and in the eyes of the master, he was still a black slave. He wants fairness, so he imposes greater injustice on others to find his own balance. Can I say he is pitiful? Although he is hateful.
In the end, the rescued princess, in fact, I can't think of anything other than her screams. . . But she is the cause of the whole story. Because in the end she wants to live a happy life with the prince. . .
It's very cool to watch, very happy, don't compare it with his previous films. In fact, watching a movie is an easy task. If it looks good, just chase it to the end, and if it doesn't look good, immediately turn it off and change the movie. The most annoying are those who are looking for the central idea, such as what does the director want to express? In fact, the main thing is, what have you received from these hours? are you happy?
isn't it?
