Every step of "Man on Wire" is to face death

This is a documentary. Don't expect too much of the picture quality. But the film is real, emotional, and moving.
When he stood on the steel rope between the twin towers, the excitement expressed from the oral interviews with his partners was very touching! It is also the climax of the whole film.

On the steel rope, every step taken, every step forward, is facing death. It takes much courage to step on the steel rope, and it takes more courage to dare to face the air under...

Analysis from the theme, expression technique and music

The final homework of the documentary elective course that has been turned out.


The film "The Tightrope Walker" is a biographical documentary. It records his crazy dream-chasing process through the recollections of Philip himself and his various related people, as well as the simulated reproduction of the situation at that time and some materials. With the support of his girlfriend, the born adventurer finally succeeded in making a pioneering act, walking a tightrope on the World...

real and not dull

It's a very good documentary, and the narrative technique is also very special. The interludes of paragraphs make the rhythm of the whole documentary well controlled. The music is also very good, and the French romanticism is vividly set off. The historical footage and the newly filmed footage are also appropriately
combined with historical footage, character interviews, and scene reproduction. At the same time, the interludes and flashbacks are carried out through the chapter-style names...

"Dream Life"

The combination of black and white pictures and color pictures is the characteristic of the documentary. The interview pictures in the first part of the documentary are black and white pictures, including the preparation work before going to the building, the tension of the people on the road and the memories of previous exercises. The film becomes depressing and heavy, and the audience can quickly enter the film at the beginning, rendering the atmosphere, making the tension and incredible...

walker on wire

This is a documentary that should be considered a documentary. The story happened more than 30 years ago, a young French youth with his own dream finally completed a great feat: walking on a tightrope between the twin towers in Manhattan. The film is of course great, and I am deeply impressed by the spiritual power of the protagonist.

It took Philippe Petit a year of preparation with his girlfriend and friends to finally pull off the feat just before the twin towers were nearing their...

The documentary doesn't have as much impact as Goldstein's The Skywalker, but Philip's miracles add to the film's value. The film was shot seven years after the World Trade Center was bombed, but from the beginning to the end, it did not deliberately stir up the destruction of the World Trade Center, but just faithfully told the story of Philip who conquered the World Trade Center. Endless...

The dance soundtrack in mid-air uses Michael Nyman's classic works. When I see Philippe laughing like a child on a wire 450 meters high, I think of the beautiful and mysterious notes of nude singing and dancing. It's like a...

One of the best documentaries about French romance. Full of dreams, full of fanaticism, at all costs to make dreams come true. When success is achieved, it is also the time when a relationship...
