    Character Evaluation

    In the movie "The Deer Hunter", Michael Cimino may have grown up as an artist while directing the film, but he is trapped in some illusory concepts, and he has never been able to clearly express the characters without profaning himself from the beginning.

      There's really no way to take your attention away from the young Vulcan at the beginning.

    The Deer Hunter short comments

    • Halle 2022-03-23 09:01:16

      For three hours, the director stuffed many kinds of comparisons, the comparison between weddings and funerals, the two deer hunting comparisons, and the two Russian roulette comparisons. They were divided by war. There were a few scenes, especially Walken dedicated performances that can be recorded in film history, but the first hour was too dull. One of the themes of the film, Walken's disillusionment, is very similar to Harvey Dante in The Dark Knight. What they resort to is a kind of mechanical randomness and mechanical fairness. It's just that one chooses to toss a coin and the other chooses Russian roulette. Humanity is destroyed by the sense of machinery, and the disillusioned person dies by his own hands as he wishes, but that is not suicide, not destiny, not hope and despair. Just random.

    The Deer Hunter quotes

    • Michael: A deer has to be taken with one shot. I try to tell people that but they don't listen.

    • Nick: I sound like some asshole, right?

      Michael: I tell you, Nick, you're the only guy I go hunting with, you know. I like a guy with quick moves and speed. I ain't gonna hunt with no assholes.

      Nick: Well, who's an asshole?

      Michael: Who's an asshole? Who do you think is an asshole? They're all a bunch of assholes. I mean, I love 'em, they're great guys, but, you know, without you, I hunt alone. Seriously, that's what I'd do.

      Nick: You're a f*ckin' nut! You know that, Mike? You're a maniac. A control freak.

      Michael: I just don't like no surprises.
