Science fiction master Ray Bradbury's classic novel "Fahrenheit 451" (Fahrenheit 451) will be made into a TV movie by HBO. This is not the first time the book has been filmed. This time it is a contemporary American adaptation. Starring Michael Bakari Jordan and Michael Shannon, the story is set in a dictatorial world that does not allow people to have free thoughts. The ruler burns all books, and the job of firefighters is not to put out fires, but to burn books. Fahrenheit 451 is the burning point of paper (of course this number is just an allusion).
Jordan plays the male protagonist Montag, a young firefighter. Like many protagonists in dystopian novels, he was originally numb and ignorant and experienced an "awakening". Therefore, he and his former mentor, the fire brigade captain Beatty (Shannon) Anti-head. The film is directed by Ramin Bahrani ("99 Homes" and " Man Push Cart "), who wrote the script together with Amir Nadri   .

    The rhythm is a bit chaotic, and a lot of derivative settings have been added, but it is not completely divorced from the original, at least it is better than the original with many lines without beginning and end. Montag really wakes up at the end, when he says Choice, he chooses not to do it when he can. The worst acting in it is the self-immolating aunt. Where did you find such a dumbfounded group performance? You give a dazzling expression. After reading for a long time, it will become like this?

    1.5. Sofia Bottola is now a bad movie. Such a good story could be so mediocrely shot, even worse than Truffaut's (the Truffaut's film was not particularly good, I know he was a master but it was really not very good), over the past so many years, even even The picture is not as beautiful as that movie...

Fahrenheit 451 quotes

  • Clarisse McClellan: Why do I always make you nervous?

    Guy Montag: You don't.

    Clarisse McClellan: When I see you burning up Eel's lives, you don't look nervous.

    Guy Montag: That's because I'm very good at my job.

    Clarisse McClellan: Hmm. Have you ever thought, even for one second, why you do what you do? You should try reading before burning.

  • Captain Beatty: Do you want to know what's inside all these books? Insanity. The Eels want to measure their place in the universe, so they turn to these novels about non-existent people. Or worse, philosophers. Look, here's Spinoza. One expert screaming down another expert's throat. "We have free will. No, all of our actions are predetermined." Each one says the opposite, and a man comes away lost, feeling more bestial and lonely than before. Now, if you don't want a person unhappy, you don't give them two sides of a question to worry about.

    Guy Montag: Just give 'em one.

    Captain Beatty: Better yet, none.
