2. The killer is extremely cold-blooded, calm, meticulous, ubiquitous, and shudders. The anti-type treatment is not the popcorn treatment method of dropping the chain at a critical moment, and the devil has not been punished.
3. Air guns, noise-cancelling shotguns, and special props, externalize the killer’s distinctiveness and horror, and the act of guessing coins is just an old trick.
4. Some side treatments, such as killing a woman at the end of the film Going out to see the soles; and the cowboy strayed into the drug trade scene and found that everyone was dead (avoiding the heated exchange of fire), this design is also unique.
5. What happened to the car that finally turned out and smashed the killer into a broken bone? At one point I thought it was the old sheriff, but in the end it was just an accident.
6. What is the meaning of this dialogue?
Llewellyn Morse: If I never come back, tell Mom I love her.
Morse's wife: Llewellyn, your mother is dead.
Llewellyn Moss: Well, I'll tell her myself.
7. What is the meaning of the old police detective branch line? What does the title mean? The film review "When Evil Becomes Pure Evil" gave some answers, to the effect that the world is not ancient, evil has lost its reason, and finally makes people powerless. Yunzhong said it is about "violence" that makes people hopeless and powerless.
8. (Netizen) The director's control over the camera and narrative: a close-up of the face when the murderer strangled the policeman in the detention room, and a close-up of the policeman's struggle marks on the floor after his death; the western desert in the bright sunlight makes people panic, boundless In the dark night, there is a sudden flash of danger; whether it is in the sun or in the dark, the sound of gunfire always bursts out and then falls into silence. Who knows if the next gunshot is directed at him...
9. The old sheriff The two indirect interactions with "The Killer" are still meaningful. Once through the reflection in the TV, and once through the reflection in the keyhole. (in the cloud)
10. The film recounts his confrontation with the killer with breathless calm. Low-key, cool lighting, stereotyped, lifeless scenes, suffocated shots before violence, shooting incidents that happen quickly. This part is the most "spectacular" and the "darkest" part of the film. It is an important embodiment of the style. Outside of this, all narrative attitudes are suppressed to a minimum. The Coen brothers completed this cruel narrative in a terribly calm way. , so cool that they didn't use any soundtrack. (Clouds)
11. The language of the film is relatively simple, but the "purity" is higher. The characters basically don't speak at critical times, and they rely entirely on actions to explain, and the atmosphere is driven by photography and editing -- there is no element of music. Anyone who is engaged in action movie editing knows how difficult it is to cut the charm and rhythm of a movie without music. (in the clouds)
12. Killer cowboys fight, with space and sound effects, no dialogue... Because of this, the sound processing of this movie is the best (one of) in the Coen Brothers movies, the arrangement of the entire sound spectrum Very distinctive, as infectious as a movie with a soundtrack. (in the cloud)
