If the beautiful collages of Quentin's Pulp Fiction, Inglourious Basterds, and so on are ultimately intellectually pleasing to the viewer, Iglesia has none of the postmodern logo of collage but is surprisingly linear. The statements are further outside the ordinary viewing experience. In my opinion, "Sad Trumpet" is by no means a simple violent romance, although it has gore, sex, and ambiguous plausible warmth, as well as creepy jokes. It was black, so dark that it was perverted, desperate and terrifying. The corrupted child's heart, justice, love, and love are all uncertain, only the sad clown's first sight of love at first sight is bright. In addition, the other members of the circus who are always united by simple survival needs are suspected to be the masses (actors) who just want to live better? If they meet the group of people who assassinated the president, will they go over and ask "Which circus are you from" like Harvey?
In my logic, love can bring salvation here - but no, far from it, it breeds madness and evil. The development of the story was unexpected. No wonder CS Lewis quoted Aristotle's "Politics" before speaking of "animal suffering" in The Mystery of Suffering "To discover what are the properties of nature, we must study those reserved A species of natural properties, not a destroyed species". The sad clown Harvey was destroyed, from an innocent orphan who grew up alone without knowing what he had experienced, to love and could not escape into the jungle to drink blood, and finally fell into the yoke of the enemy dramatically, becoming a savage with prey like a dog. . He bit like a wild beast, Franco, the dictatorial general who wanted to rescue him in the name of God.
The aesthetics in the film are non-empirical, neither Quentinian violence nor revolutionary Meng Langism, and it is difficult to define its attributes. The screenwriter and director of this film, which was exhibited at the 67th Venice Film Festival, won the award. It is said that Quentin, as one of the judges, appreciates this film very much, and I am more inclined to "too selfish and paranoid expression makes this film a vassal of the director's personal style and personal preferences. Although it is an excellent film, But the too personal expression has become a failure of the film to a certain extent. ("Hollywood Reporter") "This kind of evaluation.
In that seemingly crazy and funny ending, someone said:
"Aren't there any normal people here?"
"This is crazy"
"It's not us, it's the country that's going to end."
And,
the surreal scene of Harvey with his father and singing As the "Sad Trumpet" singer staggers the dialogue, Harvey says to his father:
"She doesn't love me,
I can't be funny."
"It's the weak that need humor.
They scare them to death if they don't laugh, make them look good!
… ...
remember your destiny!"
At the end of the duel (it is said that the duel's rivals are metaphors for both sides of the civil war), one clown said to the other: "It's going to die
, who cares if it's funny or not, you think death is a joke?"
Song in:
"Sad trumpet song for the dead
weeping,
lamenting, and
tears raining down
..."
Well made without a doubt. Especially in the opening film, you can see the deep-rooted beliefs of the Spaniards since the Roman era. With Quentin, the Bible can be ridiculed, and Iglesiah is obviously very serious, save for Hieronymus Bosch's "Christ Carrying the Cross" and Matthias Grunewald's crucifixion The appalling image of Jesus (Crucifixion), and the weeping Virgin. The occupation that runs through two generations in the film is a cross except for the "clown". And Harvey's father was one of their generation's laborers who were forced to build a giant cross; Harvey and his rival's lover (the woman Harvey fantasized as the Virgin) included the self-proclaimed "really flying" trapeze, Their circus colleagues all died on the cross, which may be the difference between Iglesia and Quentin.
Black, unbearable weight. Who dares to touch the darkness except the light?
Watch less, watch less, if not for the clown I've always loved.
