While brushing my teeth I kept wondering what makes Outlaws such a classic that so many people pay homage to it. And come to a conclusion - a good movie is like the source material, it can have various bridges worthy of repeated imitation. And Outlaws is not very exciting as a whole, but it's poetic, its monologues, its shots, its Shakespeare flirting (which is lame), its silent minute, its dancing At that time, I was very impressed. The first male described his inner activities and speculated about the psychology of the other two, and at the end of the movie, the second male died and the male pair narrated the name of the heroine that appeared in his mind.
Poetic lines are also reflected in the dialogue of the seemingly innocent heroine. In short, in addition to the good writing skills, you can feel the poetic atmosphere exuding from the director's whole person. It's like the question in Wild Palms quoted in Burnout, do you choose pain or blankness.
Coincidentally, "A Clockwork Orange", which is read and read, is also a narration method of the protagonist.
In addition, I think Godard is very talented. I thought it was very interesting to watch the frame skipping of "Exhausted". Later, I found that there was another wave of people imitating such expressions. Music too. Many of Godard's expressions strike me as genius, and they're not imitations, they're all his own creations.
——I just saw an interview after I finished writing. When Godard talked about creation, it was actually very similar to my understanding above——
