The most restrained black classic
Issac 2022-04-20 09:01:34
The god-level classic of film noir, it is said that every shot can be written into a textbook. When I first saw it, I felt that the emotional lines of the characters were handled very modestly. The male protagonist's life and death to the female protagonist and the intertwining of love and hate on the screen were not vigorous enough, but thinking about it, it left more room for imagination. The male protagonist and the good base friend have a strong sense of CP, and the ending of the cigarette-lighting guest-guest relationship is very good; the light and the shadows cast by the blinds make the film always shrouded in the visual experience of alternating light and dark, this erratic is not the heart of the character 's image?

The pinnacle of film noir is suffocating, with a novel and unique beginning of the film, which does not hang the audience's appetite, and the process of committing crimes and solving cases through the perspective of criminals.

The classic noir collaboration between Billy Wilder and Raymond Chandler, the early Hollywood textbook of "tough guy + femme fatale".

Walter Neff: The insurance ran out on the 15th. I'd hate to think of you having a smashed fender or something while you're not... fully covered.
Phyllis: Perhaps I know what you mean, Mr. Neff. I've just been taking a sun-bath.
Walter Neff: No pigeons around, I hope.

Walter Neff: He didn't get away with it. All he got was a three to ten stretch at Tehachapi.
Phyllis: Perhaps it was worth it to her.
