Literary youth playing big swords

Rigid British people often bring surprises to American pop culture, such as the two well-known British poison tongue judges in the two famous talent shows "American Idol" and "American Got Talent" on American TV, Simon Cowel and Pierce Morgan, What they are best at is to send the most vicious sarcasm to the contestants who are eager in front of them. While the Americans scolded and said why let an Englishman ruin our buddies and sisters, they were still masochistic about these British slobbers. No, Simon is gone, American idols are basically dead. NS.
"Hannah" was supposed to be a cliché "Nikita"-style girl-killer development movie that has been told many times, but because of the integration of the personal style of British literary film director Joe White, the film presents some inconsistencies. Unconventional temperament. This is the first time Joe White has directed an action film. From the perspective of genre, it is very different from the literary and artistic films he was good at. He mainly emphasized the action and confrontation, and strengthened the chase and anti-chase of the film. Here, the electronic rock-style soundtrack of the Chemical Brothers played a big role.
Joe White is a director who knows how to tell stories and establish relationships between characters. This is fully demonstrated in his famous work "Pride and Prejudice". He has an obsessive obsessive fascination with the scheduling of long shots. , The camera's dazzling technical positioning also gives the film a sense of fusion of scenes and flowing water. Of course, under the rhythm of the mid-to-high confrontational commercial film "Hannah", Joe White’s lens ideographic system is a bit useless. His excess creative power can only be used in a three-minute exercise like Eric's unarmed killing of three killers in Berlin. Long shots to vent, this reminds me of the breathtaking long shot on Dunkirk Beach in "Atonement."
The Arctic and Morocco are the passages that can still carry Joe White’s poetic expression, because here are the heroine’s mental growth and physical trials, and the process of Hannah and Sophie’s two girls from knowing each other to being inseparable. The innocent power that penetrates the heart, especially when this kind of beauty is under the crisis of being killed at all times, it has a sense of disillusionment of the beautiful scenery and the sky. However, Joe White did not effectively place and set off the fatefulness of the times under the personal encounters and conspiracy theories, which made the film lack the impact that it should have under the fate of being frustrated in the final stage.
The agent Eric in "Hannah" was hired in 1991, which was the year when the Warsaw Pact, which marked the end of the Cold War, was dissolved. However, the elements of Berlin, Eastern Europe, and the CIA are still a standard when they are put together. Cold War theme configuration. The plot setting of Hannah's biochemical transformation is also similar to the series of evil human transformation plans for the Cold War mentioned in the American TV series "Edge of Crisis". Therefore, "Hannah" is still a literary film about the scars of the Cold War. Hannah's demonized body and young heart yearning for family affection and friendship have become political sacrifices in the era of violence and violence, and this tragedy is in the context of today's anti-terrorism. There is still a realistic correspondence. 【Global Screen】

    Around 1h02min there's a long shot of about three minutes from getting out of the car that ends with a fight, Joe White's usual long shot selling point. Another container maze long shot and so on. The core of the SF-inclined story actually caused harm to the story itself. It is better to set it as a spy couple fleeing with their daughter, but the wife and daughter both died. The father then trained a girl to take revenge. Is the tracksuit golden retriever a tribute to the Beethoven killer in Leon?

    No amount of long takes can make up for the failure of the script, bad film.
