The integrity and persistence of artistic and cultural connotations, fortunately Oscar is not mainstream

After watching the film with such a poetic name as "No Country for Old Men", I finally wondered why this is an Oscar-winning film. "Frozen" is the second Cohen I've watched, and I still can't understand it. The running-book narrative style makes the film seem bland. Even if there are more Gulong-style casualties in the process, it is still difficult to move, because the way it is handled is also the same Gulong-style: only listening to the gunshots passing by, it is bloody. The event came suddenly and went away in a hurry. Too late to reflect, the film has taken you to the next scene.
After rummaging through the film reviews, I realized that Cohen's style is blood, dark humor and existentialism. Oscar does not favor mainstream movies too much. In many Oscar movies, we see more integrity and persistence in artistic and cultural connotations. This is unbelievable! ! ! So the Coen brothers are still standing in the halls of Hollywood.
Therefore, the audience of such films in China is destined to be small. To be honest, I don't really catch a movie like this. Under the influence of action movies and Hong Kong-style movies, we have developed the kind of exciting feeling that the ultimate boss must be extremely vicious and will never die. So we often can't accept the simple ending of Hollywood and the bluntness of blood.
What I want to say is to use Cohen's film as a reflection on Chinese cinema. We believe that most movie fans have the above feelings. There's not much wrong with this. Our problem is that the commercialization of movies makes utilitarian and vulgar movies flood everywhere, and movie theaters also show a money slave-like way to make way for these difficult things for the box office. Their standard is: gods and horses are all clouds. , the box office is the truth. This extreme phenomenon squeezes the living space of literary films, and the vulgar culture of gimmicks in the whole country also makes literary films face the embarrassing situation of existence or death.
"You first have to please the audience. With the box office, you have the right to speak. When you can guarantee the box office, you can make any movie you want." When most directors express the difficulties of the industry, we These bystanders can already mute. I just hope that one day when they truly master their own destiny, they will not forget their original dream. I also sincerely hope that they can master their own destiny as soon as possible and make a movie with unique charm.
