Day 3 Movie Diary (6.13)
Japanese weird
Martian Xenomorph
"Martian Xenomorph" is adapted from Japanese manga and Japanese dramas, and director Takashi Miike continues his bad taste brain hole talent and unbridled style in this film. With strong special effects, the film does not look a little cheap in the cinema like some works of the same type, and in general, it is still a very exciting event comic.
From the plot point of view, the film contains common configurations such as space threat theory and perverted scientists, and integrates many common growth elements such as sacrifice, friendship, and love into the people of the Bug Army. They transform, upgrade, fall in love, kill each other, and encourage each other, and there is a small fresh side in addition to nausea.
There is no need to think about it and there is no core plot, that is, to kill cockroach people on Mars. But students who love Cult, love slime, love monsters, love Japanese manga, and of course love a lot of Japanese-type men and women must not miss it.
Maybe it also includes those who love Kitano Takeshi, because the cockroach people who are full of pits and valleys look exactly like Kitano Takeshi, which is particularly cute.
New masterpiece
Salt and Fire
Whether or not Herzog expressed a vaguely ridiculous attitude toward whether he wanted to win the award or not, "Salt and Fire" is the biggest title of the Golden Jubilee Award. However, a big name does not mean eye-catching, and it is not necessarily the best choice for everyone compared with other works.
"Salt and Fire" is too Herzog, from the scenery, environmental protection, nature to the sense of existence is not too strong strange people, everywhere reflects the master's creative casualness and operation inertia in his later years.
Salt and fire refers to salt lakes and volcanoes. The film was filmed in Bolivia and Germany. Bolivia's famous salt lake is the biggest protagonist of this film. An environmentally friendly UN investigative project similar to the film's MacGuffin, leading characters and viewers to salt lakes and volcanoes to be inspired and baptized by nature.
This is probably also Herzog's position is both stable and relies on the old to sell the old, so that the audience will be the protagonist and himself the villain. Shannon abandons Ferrell in front of the volcano like Herzog's empty mirror, leading us to see the landscape and "change our way of thinking.". Shannon seduces Ferrell as Herzog preaches to the audience.
Even the beginning of Shannon's kidnapping of Ferrer, her shackles, and her reflection on the reasons for the shackles are like talking to us: I just want you to sit in your seat and watch all this, to understand my meaning and instructions, but you don't like to watch documentaries, you don't listen to lectures, I can only package it as a "thriller" with genre elements.
"Salt and Fire" is simply the opposite of Rossi's "Sea Flame", and the editor personally supports Rossi.
Visconti
"The Earth Is Fluctuating"
The Earth Is Fluctuating is probably the most different visconti's look. The documentary realism brought to us by non-professional actors and withered fishing villages also shows the director's superb choreography and scheduling ability, even in some big scenes. It does not have the amount of information as large as each frame of those gorgeous works, but it generates its own poetry in the swaying of black and white light and shadow.
Despite the clear left-wing protest attitude, the main theme of the film is still the life and death of the Italian family, showing the ethics and social rules of the fishermen's family living in the fluctuating land of the sea. Marriage has its own logic, but life and death are not controlled.
Great work, simple and even more wonderful.
