Originally, I said that I don't want to complain about this year's Oscars, and I don't plan to pay attention to this hypocritical Academy Award in the future, but after watching The Hateful Eight, I couldn't help but sigh.
From the beginning as a novelty product of technological progress, to being recognized as an artistic expression, until now it has become a consumer entertainment item. This process lasted only a hundred years. The concept of time is not worth a moment in human history. However, since the film, human history is destined to be recorded in another form. Movies, at a larger scale, hope to give a reverberation to the society, and at a smaller scale, they may express the personal feelings of the filmmakers behind the scenes.
There is no doubt that this is an impetuous era. It is a luxury to sit down and have a quiet cup of tea and watch a movie, and the filmmakers seem to accept this status quo, so that they don’t need to use their brains, just enjoy the visual popcorn movie. It is very popular, and even some actors who are really talented but have never been recognized need to rely on this kind of film to get the highest recognition in the industry. This phenomenon is really sad! And in this big environment, the filmmakers who still stick to their personal feelings and don't follow the crowd are even more pitiful and moving! The Hateful Eight was created by such a filmmaker. This person is Quentin Tarantino. From Pulp Fiction to Kill Bill, From Inglourious Basterds to the rescued Django, Quentin rudely used plasma and straight lines. Bai's narrative style is expounding his own language. This is the art that he understands. He filmed it and let other people feel the art in his mind. I felt it and became obsessed with it. This is the meaning of the movie. Film art success! Quentin understands the art of film, which may have something to do with his origin. His path to film is based on his love and pursuit of films. People who love films have such a pursuit in their hearts, that is, I recognize the achievements of others, But I want to express my perspective!
Nowadays, the progress of network technology has created opportunities for many people to express their voices, but the rapid development has also made many people unable to stick to their original intentions. is emptiness. Human lifespan is limited, and artistic life is even more short-lived. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a spark that can go out in a flash. Because of this, people hope to leave something to be remembered by history. There is no doubt that history will remember Quentin who insisted on his violent aesthetics all the way. His film language will be studied and passed down. After a few decades, who will remember the handsome uncle who gave birth to a golden man after being raped by a female bear. Woolen cloth? But there will definitely be genre films like The Hateful Eight that are recognized by art!
