It is not difficult to understand that, from North America and around the world, the mystery of the win-win of "Gravity" at the box office and word-of-mouth, and the long shot is actually just a part of director Alfonso Cuarón's intentions. Looking at the whole film, The most common space (especially vertical space) displays, such as the broken arrows of cosmic fragments, are usually shot in front of the viewers. They all confirm the existence of "3D" all the time. In fact, it is different from the purpose of hidden cameras, but it is the opposite. Only by doing so, can the audience be in the theater, and deeply feel the vastness of the assumed universe and the pleasure within reach.
In the final analysis, the main characters of the film are nothing but Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. They vividly summarize the action of the characters in the film. They are nothing more than the word "Erren Zhuan". The two astronauts worked hard when they were in trouble. Self-help constitutes most of the narrative subject of the film. The vast universe is unable to escape. In fact, it constitutes a closed space in the image, which cannot be terminated unless the mission of returning to earth is completed.
Naturally, for this kind of spatial arrangement, to what extent can the audience be fatigued by watching similar scenes too frequently, "Gravity" responds with 90 minutes that is different from the usual two-hour commercial blockbusters. It seems a bit far-fetched, and the Chinese Space Station, which is the story of survival (regardless of the detailed controversies that have been discussed), a coin, a line of landscape flowers and plants, all constitute an old-fashioned Western imagination, this same obvious act of imagination. Highlighting Caron's self-proclaimed argument that entertainment is supreme can also be seen as a compliment to the potentially important global market-the Chinese market, although it is very far-fetched.
In addition, it must be very painful to try to explore this film from the perspective of screenwriting skills. This is a film that sacrifices the charm of the star's face (most of the time the leading role wears a space coat and hat) but highlights the body aesthetics (Sandra • Bullock's healthy and perfect figure, especially the pure visual display of the "rise" metaphor at the end of the film. Whether it can escape from danger and whether there will be miracles, all are hidden in the continuously rotating space capsule and the longitudinal space in and out, making "Gravity" more like a standard exhibition film of a science and technology museum, with the basic plot removed. , You can still see the explosion.
