Hit Cabela Tal. Give 10 points.
After listening to Hu Bo and his stories countless times, Han Jiatong has seen the riot at the end of "The Whale Circus" many times in his class, and he has heard countless times in Su Mu's class about the classic dialogue of two people traveling together in the Summer Palace. encountered the text itself.
Not very familiar with the history of Eastern Europe and Hungary, maybe it is about the system, the collapse of the Soviet Union and communism.
Leaving aside themes, ideas, and various metaphors and symbols. The audiovisual itself is worth 10 points for the exploration and innovation of the film. The whole film has 39 shots, took 4 years to shoot, and changed 7 photographers. The whole film is one scene at a time, I joked "back to the time of Bout", Ronaldinho was sure that the lens had a smooth and weak optical zoom, and we were all amazed at the precise focus control of all the lenses (such as the appearance of a helicopter, the focus really gave a good), the compositional design of the ups and downs, and the complex mise-en-scene.
In the hospital riot scene, the Foley sound effect did not involve any human voice (no wailing or roaring), creating a "silent slaughter" effect, which was shocking, and after the camera of the electrical store panned down, "the public speech turned into a reading murmur. "It's also amazing, taking the so-called "montage inside the shot" or "the suspense of the long shot itself" to the extreme.
The long-shot sequence of "Human Body Simulation Stars" at the beginning and the long-shot sequence of "Hospital Riot" at the end are equally amazing, especially the hospital scene, the last close-up of the male protagonist's face, serious expression, staring straight at the camera - - Staring at every overwhelmed audience in front of the camera, mind-blowing. I told Xiao Luo a detail: the close-up of the male protagonist's face lasted for more than 30 seconds, but the male protagonist didn't blink his eyes until he burst into tears, and the whole long shot was nearly 8 minutes. How many times NG has ridiculed "once NG, 1 day of recovery", no wonder one shot is often shot for several months.
The long shots of the whole film are basically moving (obviously different from Hou Hsiao-hsien and Ozu).
What does "whale" mean? What does "Prince" mean? "Prince", like McGuffin, only has a ghostly shadow in the whole film, but as the core character and topic, it runs through the whole film, and the "absent presence" is realized through the dialogues of all characters. And that huge whale eye, from staring and round to half-open and half-closed at the end of the film, and finally disappearing into the white fog, symbolizes something.
The male protagonist is the point of view of the whole film and witnessed all the incidents. He called everyone "Uncle", was the first to watch the whale, overheard the conversation between "Prince" and the translator, and witnessed the hospital riot. Aunt Tang De threatened to help the pianist uncle to get in touch, fled to the train station and was intercepted by a helicopter, and finally overheard the officer's conversation.
Why does the male protagonist interpret the human astral body, why does the pianist uncle oppose the twelve equal temperament, why does the police chief dance "Blue Danube" with Aunt Tang De, and what does the clamor of the chief's child imply? What is the "Prince" talking about with all the god-like preaching?
All the details are worth pondering, "I don't understand, but I am shocked."
