After watching and a little bit of associations about JOJO

Not suitable to be a wartime strategist, Michael is also not suitable to be a normal godfather. Of course, this is only Michael's own problem, and the changes of the times and various external factors will not be discussed for the time being. I also want to say that it is a matter of fate. JOJO Golden Wind is based on the godfather to design and arrange characters. Among them, Bugatti is based on Vito, and Giorno is based on Michael. The theme of destiny is easily discovered by the audience in JOJO, especially in the Rolling Stones chapter, but it is not so conspicuous in The Godfather 2. Note that at the end of The Godfather 2, in the scene of Vito's birthday party, Michael chose to join the army instead of going to college. He believes that his own understanding is in control of himself. In the first part, he also repeatedly emphasized to Key that he is different from Vito, but when the accident really It came, and no one could stop it, as if the face had been engraved on a rolling stone. From the production side of the movie, this movie does live up to the high score of 9.2. Some people may think that the rhythm of the movie is too slow and the time is too long, but I want to say that not a minute of it is wasted, it is all for the characterization and the plot, Michael's psychological activities are shown so delicately, and Vito's history is interspersed and matched. Michael's main line is clear and complementary, helping the audience to understand the characters several times when Michael's inner changes are complicated. What I think is the best part of the shooting is the use of light and shadow and montage. The light and shadow part can clearly see its characteristics. Many indoor scenes are highly saturated, the light is dark, and the characters are almost like silhouettes. Whether it is Vito or Michael, half of the face is always in shadow. This kind of shooting is not uncommon now, but considering that it is a movie from more than 40 years ago, it is still worth learning. . The first, where Michael recognizes Connie's son as his godson, is interspersed with images of gangster revenge, interweaving chants with gunshots, a unique parallel montage. 2 high ratings.
