The color tone of the completed film is black and white highlights. From the beginning to the end, it is not a black and white movie in the ordinary sense. There is no grayscale, only black, white, and highlights. Only a few shots are specially processed to add a bright touch. Red, or a woman's red lips, or clothes. In the film, there are a lot of shots that seem to be overexposed or stereotyped using PS filters. In addition, many times the city with the background of the characters seems to be modeled in 3D, both true and false. . . I really admire the producer for handling the visual of a simple film so extraordinary, or it can be said to be unprecedented! (Haha, that is to say, special treatment should be adopted. No matter how much blood the characters in the film bleed, their heads and hands are cut off, they are only visually black or white, which will not have much impact on the audience's mind. )
I think the use of this special technique to process the picture, the switching of the shots in the film, and the addition of a large number of characters’ inner monologues are also to achieve the effect of imitating black lines and white paper printing as well as comic books, making the film look like a “wish”. A moving comic book", or it can be said that a living person is used to imitate a computer effect made in 3D. (I really can’t think of imitating the computer effect to draw architectural drawings in real life, but I am also trying in other fields, and if you can grasp it properly, you will achieve unexpected, extremely sharp effects!)
In terms of the content of the story, it’s true To be complimented, it's not my favorite subject, so I really can't stand it. Cold-faced killers, killing each other, lonely heroes, really not my cup of tea~ But it can be regarded as a complete imitation of American comics.
