Today I recommend a very man movie to you,
A few years ago, an oolong: this R-rated film was released in the mainland for 1 minute and was urgently removed from the shelves.
You must have guessed it, I'm talking about it —
Django Rescued
"Django Rescued" is not only a Western, action movie, gunfight movie, but also an epic masterpiece. The whole story is full of Quentin-like elements: extreme camera angles, ulterior motives of background hints, abrupt plot twists and music, contradictory character characteristics. The whole film is free supremacy, full of the brave and fearless spirit of the western heroes, denouncing the brutal rule of the race, and staged a violent and bloody scene. Quentin stuffed freedom, justice, hope, dreams, etc. into the skin of violence, eager to break through the blood and sprinkle the "ketchup" on the audience's face.
In 2013, "Django Rescued" was released in the mainland and also experienced a process of "being rescued". Due to "technical problems", the film, which was scheduled to be released on April 11, was postponed for a full month, resulting in audiences not seeing the real body until May 12 of that year. The so-called "technical problem" is actually because there are nude dingding shots in the film. Whether it is an emergency stop or an postponement of the release, it can finally be seen in the theater, and it can be regarded as a real milestone of "from hard disk to screen".
"Black humor" runs through the plot
Django The Liberated is set in the 1950s and 1960s, when most of the blacks living in the United States were still sold as slaves. Black slaves were enslaved inhumanely. Django and his wife were forced to separate and sold both at a low price.
Luckily, Django knew the man the bounty hunter Dr. Schultz was looking for. After being rescued, the two reach an agreement: Django finds someone for the doctor, and the doctor helps Django save his wife. Dr. Schultz not only taught Django to use weapons, but also tapped into his intellect and communicative mind.
Not surprisingly, in one winter's time, Django went from a black slave who couldn't even use a gun to a brilliant bounty hunter. The two successfully completed several votes of business in succession and went together to rescue Django's beautiful wife, Bloncida.
The process of saving their wives is quite tortuous, and they meet a "fierce character" - Calvin Candy. After missing "Shameless Bastard", Xiao Lizi was able to play the villain known as the "evil man of the times". This farmer who is addicted to black slave fighting especially likes to watch black slaves tear each other apart. In his case, once the black slave gladiator loses his value, he has only one end: he is surrounded by vicious dogs until he is bitten alive.
Such a shrewd and brutal businessman, it is not so easy to save people from under his eyes. Therefore, the two threw themselves into their favor, pretending to be black slave traders, and then the "aesthetics of violence" highlighted the characteristics of the theme
Quentin uses simple humor to embody the ruthlessness, indifference, brutality, cruelty and viciousness of the manor slave owner. Use this villain's shameless boasting and threatening remarks to expose racist laodice. It also profoundly shows the desire and struggle of black slaves for freedom. When he finally pulled out a gun and killed Candy, Schultz humorously and smilingly said, "I'm sorry, I can't help it." "For his death, this film reaches a climax and deepens the theme. Schultz defended freedom with death, and used death to make Django, who was influenced by him all the way, until this moment, finally understood the true meaning of freedom - there is no real freedom without decisive resistance, and this anger against enslavement was finally ignited from Django's heart, from "rescued" directly sublimated to "liberated".
It is said that the filming cycle of this film is as long as 130 days, which is Quentin's longest-consuming film, which shows the degree of attention.
Because the background is set during the American Civil War, the director will inevitably inject a lot of historical feelings.
But the bold innovation of "black slaves turning bounty hunters" is a subversion of tradition.
In previous Westerns, black people simply couldn't get on the horse.
Django, on the other hand, is not only able to ride a horse, but also has "absolute freedom."
I have to say that Quentin's bold joke about American history is simply very gratifying.
As for the fallacy about the "skull" at the little plum table, it actually alludes to the current situation of discrimination against black people in white society, in fact, true servility is not innate, but also self-inflicted.
Compared with Stephen, the black butler, there are so many opportunities to escape in his life, and he can even personally kill the master. However, he never did that. He knew clearly that freedom came at a price. The price was that he flattered like a waging dog for a lifetime, and finally died at the hands of Django.
And Django, who never compromises, gallops fast and fights for his own freedom and love. This controversy made the world remember his name. That's right, his name is Django, oh, D doesn't pronounce.
