There is a writer named Yun Zhongyue, who is an outlier among martial arts writers. One of his works is that there is no fighting. In the book I read, the rivers and lakes are sinister, swords are drawn, and the mountains and rains are about to come. At the end of the decisive battle, the protagonist actually fainted completely. After waking up, people tell what happened, wonderful! Although there is no fighting, there is no shortage of swords and swords, paving the way, doing everything possible to build momentum, and reading it with gusto.
Watching Stephen King's works, you have to endure loneliness, gradually get better, and finally start the plot, and your emotions will be brought to the extreme and explode.
In these two episodes of "The Hunger Games", the first thing to sigh is that the script is powerful, a completely virtual other world, real and down-to-earth. Suddenly, I thought of Baidu, and there really is the original work.
The second is to lament the courage of the two directors, daring to shoot the commercial film so gently, with so much foreshadowing. The two episodes are about 150 minutes each, and the foreshadowing takes up an hour. There is a possibility that a film adapted from a best-selling novel has a ready-made audience, so they don’t have to worry about spreading it. There is another possibility, and that is the skill of the director. Gary Ross has filmed "The Galloping Age", and Francis Lawrence has filmed "I Am Legend", so it is not surprising that rhythm, rhythm, is one of the important elements of a director's skill.
The comments all say that Starfire is better than the first episode, which is true from the point of view of a commercial film, but the first episode is not bad.
The skills of the protagonists reflect the differences in the formation of cultural differences. When the weak individual is in adversity, Eastern culture pays attention to personal cultivation, while Western culture is more inclined to natural science, good at bow and arrow, good at jungle tracking, animal communication, and hiding in shadows. This is actually true. It is an ancient traditional occupation in Europe and the United States - a ranger.
Personally, I pay more attention to the soundtrack of the film. You are not easily aware of it, but it quietly assists the plot and sets off the emotions. Personally, I think that the soundtrack of the long and short beeps is a genius after the countdown and the official start of the first episode.
Jennifer Lawrence, this role is actually more difficult to play, a weak woman from a poor family, a strong heart, an ordinary person who is unprepared to be focused on the spotlight, kind but has to kill, two environments and two emotions. Progressively, the best actress at the 85th Academy Awards is well-deserved.
There seems to be a little problem with the editing of Catching Fire.
Looking forward to the next "Mockingjay", I personally think the translation of "Learn to Tongue" is better.
