Rewatch "Frozen"

In order to prevent myself from confusing my memory, I made a note of the first time I saw it on a certain night in the library. 5 minutes, "You want to kidnap your own wife?" The climax, the previous foreshadowing finally connected to a dramatic conflict. The photo on the wall transitions, and the sound cuts part after part to the character. In 14 minutes, things changed and the previous agreement was cancelled, which was a reversal. One person wants to talk, the other is taciturn, and the roles are compared, which arouses interest and highlights. Let's just record the interesting elements in the opening diary. In 19 minutes, the kidnapping came as scheduled, and the first climax came. In 20 minutes, the husband came to the office to discuss matters. Afterwards, no matter if things were successful or not, they were all messed up. No matter where the audience had their expectations, the plot had already started. Unexpectedly, he was kicked out of the plan, with a big overhead shot to show the character's insignificance. Practice the lines before the phone call without using any of the previous ones. 29 minutes, shooting police, 30 minutes, 6 reversal points, an average of one every 5 minutes. In 33 minutes, the first half of the core climax event was completed, and three people were shot.

    A series of murders triggered by greed, the charm of the Coen brothers is that they did not deliberately create suspense, but they can always see some surprises. Under the appearance of ordinary indifferent, there is actually a storm of introverted and profound thoughts, obsessive. The coldness, black humor and violent aesthetics are brought to the extreme in the film. The second time, they are still good-looking. The actors who "considerate internally and externally" are full of personalities, especially the sturdy policewoman who knows how to "do things for people".

    7.6/8.3 I have been waiting for the brothers to give me the last one, but I didn't expect it to be so tender and ending. Hey, there are less cynical tricks, and more of a return to innocence and thoroughness.
