The domestic micro-film "Judgment on Cloudy Mud" uses a minimalist narrative to depict the good and evil of human nature, and shows the most authentic side through the two strings of criminals and the elderly. The director's narrative is exquisite, the characters are concise, and the audio-visual use is clear, which is integrated into a concise and heart-warming story.
There are only two main characters presented in the short film, an elderly man and a middle-aged criminal full of scum. Its characters are clearly distinguished between good and evil, and the transformation of human design also highlights that characters can only rely on kindness to have the peak and cloud color. The director is also very distinctive in the selection of roles, with an old man with a white beard and a face full of kindness, which contrasts sharply with a bearded and vicious criminal. Through the details of the portrayal of the old man taking two steamed buns to the criminals for free to eat, and the criminals taking knives to prepare for the crime, the identities and personalities of the two characters are highlighted.
There is no direct appearance of the criminal's criminal process in the film, and the process of his psychology and life before and after the film is explained through the lens at the end, so as to transfer his attitude of changing his face and becoming a new person. It also proves the essential meaning of the title of the film, "Judgment on Cloudy Mud". Accounting for the ups and downs of criminals, when the characters return to their original state, this is the most comfortable and the most beautiful life.
The director uses concise character clarity to convey that everyone can be shaped, but some people have mistakenly entered the quagmire and need us to stretch out our hands and pull him ashore.
The director's cut through the camera, the sound, the montage editing technique makes a story with only a few lines both full and full. The use of multiple details depicted with subjective perspectives to express psychological language, to achieve the characteristics of silent is better than sound picture. A knife and a steamed bun are the main line of the whole thread, that is, to portray the identity of the character and show the psychology of the character.
The film relies on the oppressive power of sound and the inconsistencies of action to make its story more dramatic. The interlacing of multiple sets of close-up close-up shots strengthens the diversified performance image of the characters and constitutes the exemplary characteristics of their lens language. In terms of montage editing, the use of repetitive montages has repeatedly confessed to witness the life trajectory of the old man from existence to non-existence with "safe steamed buns", in contrast to this, the criminals from the initial criminal psychology to the follow-up "change of life" to repay the favor of the steamed buns, and finally take over the old man's steamed bun business.
An ordinary steamed bun shop shows the deepest change of cold and warmth in people's hearts according to the word "peace". The director portrays the characters vividly through audio-visual, and at the same time expresses the social scene with temperature like steamed buns that people yearn for under the lens.
The director filmed "Judgment on Cloud Mud" to express the cold and warm good and evil of the world with an advertising image, highlighting the yearning for a better life. The story structure is cleverly laid, and the first wrist-cutting shot in the opening chapter leaves the audience with the first impression of the victim, which is contrary to the memoiristic description at the end and gives the audience an unexpected way of expression. Deliberately leaving the story does not account for the real process of the crime, retains the psychological changes and action preludes, and finally appears as the characters re-entering the posture.
There is no need for criminals to be widely ignored by society, under the attitude of cognitive washing, such as "mud washing, Ze qing and jade". The details are laid out in advance, and such a laying is similar to the film "Old Beast" directed by Zhou Ziyang, looking lonely and zeng, not seeing the former Fu Miyun. The director portrays the depth and depth of its structure, so that the view is wonderful by its taste.
Stepping into the clouds is also empty, and a rope is needed to go deep into the mire. A few strokes of charm before and after, I am afraid that only a little warm temperature, warm that stiff posture.
