    I didn’t feel it the first time I saw it about ten years ago, but the remaining impression is like a choking on the bones. I re-watched it today and it was very shocking. The Master Shot that emphasized order was cancelled, Zsigmond's photography washed away all illusions, and finally there was a Joyce-like ending with a missing corner and an unbalanced dining table. Compared with its original and noisy, "Apocalypse Now" appears to be overly...

    The second movie in the theater uses repeated scenes and shots to compare the character changes before and after the Vietnam War. From the first 1/3 of the grand carnival wedding to the last unresolved pain, it is not just the American war altar that is broken, but the happiness of at least a generation of people. Both the American and Russian immigrants or the North and South Vietnam on the other side are suffering from a common melting pot. After the film's final patriotic soothing, it seems...

    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...

    Revisit! Still thinking that "Deer Hunter" is the most special work of the New Hollywood Movement, Cimino did not pursue those radical anti-war and criticism, but used a most American story to show the collapse of tradition, a three-hour movie, The part of the Vietnam War is only about 30 minutes, and the remaining large pages are life-like scenes in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. These scenes are the core of Cimino’s creation of this film. We have seen the wedding of Russian immigrants with...

    I almost watched crying, the soundtrack was so heartbreaking. The first hour was by no means mediocre, but I thought it was the strongest overall of the three paragraphs: a trivial fate hides in it, and the psychological wall that will be built by the war has already emerged before it starts. Just look at each indulgence, and it is unorganized. His behavior is always like a mixture of fear and forgetting. From the perspective of the viewer, this mixed sadness is very strong during the noisy...

    The metaphor of Russian roulette, structurally speaking, emphasizes the "naive" theme of the film's first paragraph: forced to bet with their own lives in order to survive; later even voluntarily chose the possibility of death . In a political sense, it foreshadows that the United States’ involvement in the war in Southeast Asia is a gamble, with only failure in the end. From a psychological level, the metaphor of Russian roulette captures the fear of an entire generation of American...

    9 points Deloni was so handsome when he was young. It looks like the American team’s bearded man is so good to look at the male coach that I can’t remove my eyes. Not boring and good-looking male protagonist is really not easy to take two Americans and get lost in a war that does not belong to you, never return to music, good Russians play Russian turntables, fatal irony and sadness, if there is no ending, God bless the United States. Definitely recommended by five...

    Ok! Unexpectedly, this is also a war movie. ……pity! The favorite war movie "Saving Private Ryan" failed to win the Oscar for Best Picture. ...I think that long war movies like "General Patton" and "Deer Hunter" have to be watched on the big screen of the cinema to make me more patient and watch it carefully, right? ...The original songIt’s not an original song from "Muse"! I heard a surprise in the...

    What can be done? Life still has to go on

    As the best Oscar film in 1978, this film was made in 1977. It is an earlier film reflecting the Vietnam War, compared to the following year’s "Apocalypse Now" and the 1986 Oscar best film "Field Platoon." It must be early. Although it is considered to be only half of the film reflecting...
