I didn't dare to comment on "Taxi Driver" and "Goodfellas" by Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro before. Although I think the works are very good, I obviously can't say how. It's a good idea, a bit intriguing and vague, so I went to see "Raging Bull" today, and I learned a little about the generality and purpose of Martin Scorsese's films. Let's talk about this movie first. The first is the shooting technique. The footage of punching to the flesh is very shocking under his quick editing, and in 1980, a large number of shots were placed in the ring to watch the melee combat at close range. In this digital age, I feel that relying solely on computer effects They can't completely make such a shocking force, and the pinching is quite in place! It is no exaggeration that this film can be regarded as a filmmaker's bible just by the way of shooting. The sound effects in this film are also god-level. It is only after sufficient research on psychology. Look carefully at Robinson for the second time: The sound effect before the hero is preparing to counterattack or ring the bell to start the battle is to slowly reduce the audience in the arena. The screams and cheers, then the camera sound, for a few seconds and then back to normal, the effect is obviously to activate the mind of our audience at this moment, and our directed concentration continues at 100% for the next few minutes , but also focus on highlighting the climax part of the film and deepen the audience's impression. Actors, I think I have a unique idea of my own when I write about actors. I don't know if anyone agrees. The combination of Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro has a very unique taste. First of all, both are With the pursuit of the ultimate as a common goal, Robert De Niro's interpretation of the loner is really unparalleled. He doesn't talk much but has a surly temperament. It is difficult for you to guess what he wants to do next, and his expression will not spoil at all. You can't even find people similar to him or similar things in daily life. In one sentence, the role played by Robert De Niro can be summed up: 'In extreme loneliness, a psychological imbalance occurs, and actions that go beyond the norm' I currently see This is the case in all the films that have had Robert De Niro as the protagonist. Before this film, DeRoney recommended the book "Jack LaMotta" to Martin Scorsese twice, and he was right This biography is of interest, and in addition to lobbying Scorsese, he also met and talked with LaMotta and got LaMotta to start training himself to the standards of a real boxer - LaMotta and De Niro The two played against each other for more than a thousand games. Then in the second half of the film, in order to play the protagonist getting fat in middle age, De Niro went to Italy to gain weight immediately after filming the scenes of La Motta's glory days, so that he could play the middle-aged and fat La Motta from 150 pounds. gain weight to 21 0 pounds, just gave birth to a bloated pot belly. Robert De Niro still won the Oscar for "Raging Bull". Finally: The reason why the film was shot in black and white was because the color of the glove would cause the negative to fade, so I decided to use black and white.
