Final footnote before becoming a master

"Boogie Nights" - "Magnolia" - "Intimate Love" - ​​"Blood"

For ordinary audiences, falling in love with blood is definitely two different things. Objectively speaking, there is indeed a certain sense of rupture from selfish love to blood, and even a certain kind of jerky can be clearly felt.

But PTA is PTA, the same multi-line narrative of Magnolia, you can't expect him to please the public like a tower of babel or a car crash, uninhibited and selfish, just choose the topic, the director's interest can be seen at a glance.

Talking down the taste, the shallow point is taste, and the deep point is how capable he is to create a work of art.

Last year in the Uffizi, the room was full of the Virgin and Child and the Holy Father, but the one that reached Vinci was different. When people stood beside his paintings in the Nuo Da exhibition hall, they consciously held their breaths and could not speak.

What to paint and how to paint has always been a top priority for ambitious painters. So does the director. The two want to be right and do it right, and it will be great.

Speaking of personal love, it is not about the works of masters. At the age of 32, the restlessness of the reproductive period has just ended, and the works are too round, that is, the old age is not good. But I dismantled every item in the filming, and I found out that the intention of death is always moving. I guess that after the PTA filmed this film, it should have to think about it behind closed doors for a while (it is difficult to say that it is painful) and finally reached the color of blood. , all kinds of threads come together in one place, and a masterpiece is born.

Thinking of a picnic from this incident can only be said to be a pity.

Two days ago, I had dinner with a friend who came back from Hollywood. Everyone agreed that a master can never be born out of nowhere. Generally speaking, the Western emphasis is on accumulating year by year, ascending step by step, and moving forward step by step. There is always something unsettling about talking about talent with one mouth open.

After making up for my personal love, I probably felt at ease. I didn't feel inferior in front of geniuses, and I was full of reverence and confidence in PTA's mastery path.

Emphasis on the hurried escape, embarrassing but eager love, and illogical scolding among adults, is the embarrassment and resistance of human beings. The 32-year-old PTA can see through it at a glance. Fortunately, he is still full of warmth as he jokes.

    A sense of immersion that has never been experienced before. The audio-visual style of PTA is too sharp in this film, and the senses are being mobilized every second.

    In this film, PTA combines the movement of the camera, the movement of the characters, the editing, and the full eccentric soundtrack elements, which not only strengthens the style but also creates a dramatic conflict within the camera (PTA's specialty) Push and pull, The combination of panning, drums, and soundtrack is almost crazy, and the rhythm is bursting. Especially when Barry calls confrontation, threatens himself, and even drives into the leader of the porn phone extortion gang who hits Lena with him, the series of dazzling camera movements and clips plus the soundtrack are amazing. And the gang leader (Hoffman) kept shouting "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!" The appearance was full of joy. Sometimes oppressive, sometimes romantic, sometimes crazy, sometimes warm, it is rare to see a love sketch with such style and novelty in form. This is almost PTA's most dazzling and dazzling genius work.

I have a love in my life. It makes me stronger than anything you can imagine. I would say 'that's that', Mattress Man.

  • Barry: I know... yes...

    Lena: That's insane.
