The most impressive thing is the film's repeated metaphors
1. When John's father died, the crowd was in the trapezoidal staircase. The child was in the front. Then there was the hospital ward where John's first child was born. The trapezoidal space seemed to be the cycle of life.
2. The same thing about life and death is also related to the crowd. When John's father died, the crowd gathered at the stairs of the house and kept a...

Since the eighteenth century, the evolution of technology has brought many things: it has transformed "traditional society" into "mass society", which is accompanied by the process of industrialization, urbanization and modernization (Lowery & DeFleur, 2009). At that time, new forms of social organization such as bureaucracy, new management models such as the corporate system, and the factory system challenged the humanist idea since the Renaissance that human beings are...

What is a little declaration of independence?
Explaining the timeline to the audience through the collapse of the cardboard like a domino, a very good camera language in the silent film era
In a telephoto lens, little Johnny came up from the crowd, and when he learned that his father was bad, he gave a close-up shot. It was a good shot.
The combination of the psychedelic city reflection in the mirror and the perfect multiple exposures, coupled with the footage that...

The movie the crowd should be watched by every working middle class
Scene 1: In 1900, the Sims kid was born on Independence Day, and Dad thought his son would be known to the world.
Highlights of the pull tab: Dad's excited expression standing in front of the mirror, in which the doctors and nurses are busy. Saying "I'll give him every chance"
Time lapse transitions with push to dominoes

At the beginning of "Those Sad Young People", Fitzgerald wrote: "Start with a person, and you will find, before you know it, that you have made a model; start with a model, and you will Found out that you're making--none of the characters. That's because we're all eccentric people, behind our voices and looks, more eccentric than we want anyone to know, or more than The extent to which we know ourselves. Whenever I hear a man claim to be an "ordinary, honest, and outspoken person," I...

The realism in the performance advocated by the director (the limitations of silent films, the heroine is still a bit exaggerated) and the ending drowned in the crowd is like wrapping the tragedy in candy wrappers. The stairwell at the beginning, the towering building, the work scene and the theater at the end, the camera angle is the key point from beginning to end. I really don’t like the old Hollywood plot in the...

Although there are some running accounts and the emotions are chicken soup, it is quite rare in the 1920s to pay such a heavy attention to the movie. Chaplin's kind of point-to-face, great joy and great sorrow, the emotion of this film is integrated into every detail of life. What's more, there is a very interesting theme. The impact of the American Dream on individuals, whether it is enthusiasm, arrogance, irritability, and perseverance, is closely related to the environment. This part of the...

9.0/10. ①The male protagonist, who has been pretentious since he was a teenager, gradually realizes and accepts his mediocrity after experiencing various setbacks. ②Some compositions have a German expressionist charm, like the deep diagonal composition of the domino card transition at the beginning, and the stair composition of the young male protagonist walking up the stairs to face his father's death (extended lines at both ends; wide foreground and narrow background There are no people in...

There are always a few people standing at the top, most of them are members of the crowd, so it is very important to have the comfort of love life. In addition, knowing your strengths and finding a job that suits you is also the key, rather than just following what others...

This is actually a very good ending, not a mechanical pandering to a big reunion, it's just the ordinary faces of all living beings and the life that lives under them - life is not a textbook for righteous words, but life often makes us become...
