Review of the film Face/Guan.

Face/Off is an action film produced by Paramount Pictures. What did you learn from this watch after reading a classic work? At this time, it is necessary to make records and write reviews. Maybe you have no idea now. The following is my comment on the movie "FACE/OFF" for your reference, hoping to help friends in need.

FACE/OFF's comments on the film 1 The face-changing king (played by Zhu Xu), a Jianghu artist, lives by boat. Because he abides by the ancestral rules of male and female transmission, his unique skills are facing loss. With the help of Liang Sulan (Zhao Zhigang), a living Guanyin, the face-changing king will inherit his last wish. He bought a clever dog doll (Zhou) for five dollars. At first, the grandparents and grandchildren got along well, but an accident in the street exposed the dog's daughter. The angry face-changing king wanted to get rid of the dog doll, but he couldn't help begging, so he changed his name to "boss" and the two still performed as a team. Getting along with each other day and night, although the face-changing king is gratified that the dog baby is filial and sensible, he does not teach face-changing skills because of the identity of the girl baby. Unable to resist curiosity, the dog baby peeked at Facebook in the middle of the night, which caused a boat fire and their shelter was burned down. The dog baby felt ashamed and left quietly, but he always felt the kindness of the face-changing king in his heart. But I don't know, this kindness will ask her to repay her life one day, and her face-changing technique will eventually spread. ...

This film has won many awards at home and abroad, such as 16 Golden Rooster Award for Best Director, the 9th Tokyo International Film Festival for Best Director and Best Actor.

Mr Zhu Xu has passed away. Look at his performance, he is really an old artist, with exquisite interpretation and excellent characterization. Changing face is a symbolic skill of Sichuan art, and several exhibitions are arranged in the film, which popularized the traditional folk culture of China, especially for foreign audiences. Of course, I've never seen a face change, and it's the same effect for me. Dogs and babies are affectionate and righteous. They are grateful and kind at an early age and give with their lives. Although the living bodhisattva has a certain position, it does not despise folk art and regards itself as an artist, which is worthy of being a model. His words impressed me deeply: although the world is cold, the truth is comfortable, otherwise it is tasteless to live.

Comments on the movie FACE/OFF ii. Plot recording and plot analysis;

FACE/OFF tells the story of a Sichuan Jianghu artist's stunt during the Republic of China, which reflects many social problems and discusses the beauty and evil of human nature.

The film begins with a green fog, and the face-changing king paddles a gondola to Sichuan. "Brother, wherever I go, I will first meet Renyitang, the center-left Yishe, the scholar, the farmer, the businessman, the robe brother, and the Catholic Jesus." The singer's lyrics immediately reflected the image of an old Jianghu to the audience. If you want to make a living on other people's turf, you must curry favor with various social organizations in language. Although it can't be said that he is proficient in accidents and exquisite in all directions, he can also see that the old artists are sophisticated in running around the rivers and lakes, and there is a cautious helplessness in them. And its face-changing stunt is exquisite and eye-catching. The layman looks at the excitement, and the expert looks at the doorway. The local red man, Liang Sulan, who is known as the "living Guanyin", attaches great importance to the skill of the face-changing king. Please come to the teahouse to discuss with him and invite the master to join us. The face-changing king was straightforward and quickly interrupted boss Liang. "Beggars also have their own dog sticks." Boss Liang had to say, "General, don't get off the horse and go your separate ways." Boss Liang's words are sincere and respectful. As a celebrity, he has never bullied or despised Jianghu artists. I don't want to steal stunts, nor do I want to draw a troupe, but I'm worried that the master's stunts will be lost out of mutual appreciation for artists.

Here, the face-changing king came up with the idea of finding an heir to inherit the mantle. On the way back, the face-changing king wanted to ask you to send Guanyin, but he got Purdue Guanyin himself. This small bridge actually implies that the last wish of the face-changing king is difficult to realize. The worship of Buddha is shown many times in the film, and then the Leshan Giant Buddha and the fortune-telling of a godsend nun can be reflected. The face-changing king wanders around the rivers and lakes alone, and his inner spiritual sustenance is all on the Buddha. This shows that the face-changing king is weak and helpless about his own destiny.

In the trafficker's market, many girls are sold at extremely low prices, and some family members give them away directly because they can't support themselves. Because of the old rule that "men don't pass on women", King Bian decided to find a "teapot mouth". As soon as the dog baby said "grandpa", he easily hooked the heart of the face-changing king, took it to buy new clothes, and immediately teased the face-changing dog baby on the boat. At dinner, grandpa said, "It's all yours". Only this sentence shows that the face-changing king loves his offspring and is ready to dig out his heart. And the picture of the dog baby tickling grandpa on the boat for the first time, accompanied by soothing music, the beauty of that kind of family happiness was immediately displayed. This reminds me of the trip between a lonely grandfather and a lovely little girl in the French movie Butterfly. There is no need for too many restrictions on family happiness, whether in China or abroad, whether living in poverty or material wealth. These are completely unimportant in the happiness of young and old. Zhu Xu, an old opera bone, was over 70 years old when he starred in this film. Naturally, he showed his kindness, moved and warm.

However, when he was injured and asked the dog to soak in the boy's urine, he finally found himself cheated. I want to drive the dog away, but I can't bear it. From then on, Gao Wa was still Gao Wa, but Grandpa was the boss.

While performing arts, I met a soldier of fortune. Although he is also the robe brother of society, this soldier of fortune wants to make a makeover and show his stunts. The dog baby boldly rebuked the soldier of fate, and finally the face-changing king handled it tactfully. On the way back, I sang "Longyou shoal was beaten by shrimp, tiger fell in Pingyang and was bullied by dogs" and ran around the rivers and lakes helplessly and sadly.

Unlike the "living Guanyin" expected by the hotel owner, Wang Bian said, "People are the heads on the dragon lanterns, and they are about to light up. Cherry in March is red. I'm just a beach runner. That's the tortoise climbing the mast. I can't climb it. " But he also said, "Live on your own and travel all over Dont Ask For Help." While lamenting the language art of this film, we also see the confidence and value of the face-changing king in his own skills. When the baby dog tickled the boss for the second time, he also taught the baby dog not to steal wine. "If you have the ability to travel around the world, you can't move." An artist values his skills, just as an official values his official title and a soldier values his gun handle. At that time, eating was a kind of pride.

The baby dog cooks good food for the boss on the boat. The face-changing king liked the little girl at this time, but also complained, "I wish you were a baby boy." The baby dog asked, "What am I worse than the baby boy?" Here's the basis for the face-changing king to gradually recognize dog dolls, and finally decided not to care about the old tradition, but to teach a girl who likes dog dolls.

However, the dog accidentally burned the boat while peeking at Facebook under the light, and finally left the face-changing king. Once again, he was taken away by traffickers and asked to take care of God. Seeing that Tianci is a "teapot mouth", the dog baby naively sent the child to the boat in order to repay the boss. The face-changing king learned from the lyrics that he was sent by his "sister" and immediately thought of the dog baby, standing by the river and calling her back. It can be seen that the face-changing king misses the dog doll. At this time, it can be seen that the prejudice of the face-changing king against girls has decreased again.

But God is the grandson of the local squire Wen. The police arrested the face-changing king as a trafficker and forced him to confess. He was about to be shot. The baby dog regretted it and went to the boss. The face-changing king is a little desperate. He tore his face and said with tears, "I owe you a broken head in my last life, and I will pay you back in this life." The helplessness of the face-changing king is once again displayed. As a Buddhist, he believes in the concept of reincarnation and admits that he is predestined friends with the dog baby. There is no prejudice against girls at this time.

Gao Wa was instructed by the hotel owner to ask the boss Liang, and then hanged himself on the stage to blackmail the teacher in the way he and the face-changing king learned when watching the Sichuan opera Guanyin. Being a girl at an early age, it is really admirable to have such courage. When the face-changing king was finally rescued and thanked the benefactor, Boss Liang said: "Although the world is cold, there is true love in the world."

The dog doll and the face-changing king recognized each other again and called "Grandpa". In the true feelings of the world, the face-changing king teaches the dog doll stunts and enjoys family happiness.

Two. Movie theme:

Praise the beauty of human nature, and the truth, goodness and beauty of human nature will eventually overcome the narrow and backward traditional concept.

3. Culture in movies:

The artistic features of this film should benefit from the contribution of the screenwriter. Wei Minglun is known as "the genius of Bashu". As a Sichuanese, he naturally knows the local conditions and customs of Sichuan. Changing face is a very famous stunt in Sichuan. On this basis, the wine culture, Buddhism culture, teahouse culture, stage culture, language culture and so on in Sichuan are all displayed in detail. Students are lucky enough to visit places of interest in Sichuan many times. Sichuanese are simple, honest, interesting, playful and lazy, which are all shown in this film.

In addition, Sichuan Gelaohui has appeared many times in this film, and the face-changing king himself is Paoge. During the Republic of China, the nursing home has become an open social organization, and all kinds of people have joined it. There are five schools of benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith. And Jianghu artists like the face-changing king are classified as "loyal" and are the lowest. In fact, the resolution of the contradictions in various dramas in this film is mainly based on the word "righteousness". The influence of the brothers' society on Sichuanese is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and Sichuanese value "righteousness".

Four. Audio-visual analysis:

Painting: The film is dominated by cool colors from beginning to end. Green is the color of plants, and blue is the color of water, which conforms to the temperament of the south. The use of color is simple, harmonious and friendly. The dense fog has a sense of mystery, which creates the unique poetry of Bashu. Similar to the beauty of Xiangxi written by Shen Congwen. Ink painting is average.

Sound: The soundtrack of the film is soothing and moving, and the unique sound effects of Sichuan Opera make the picture and the plot harmonious.

Language: The language dialogue of this film is a major feature. Many proverbs in the film properly and accurately promote the development of the plot and reasonably and profoundly reflect the internal and external activities of the characters. However, there are some regrets. Although the language is full of flavor with the help of Wei Minglun's screenwriter, it will inevitably lose the idiom effect if it is explained mainly in Putonghua. Sichuanese tend to lengthen the last syllable very long, and like to use overlapping words, such as "awesome" when the face-changing king is released from prison. Very cute, emotional, emitting a lazy and leisurely temperament. Speaking of such proverbs is naturally more innovative.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) narrative clue:

The clue is the gradual disappearance of the prejudice of the face-changing king against the identity of a dog and a woman.

Analysis of the main figures of intransitive verbs;

Face-changing king: a determined, stubborn and helpless kind little person in the transitional era. The face-changing king lived to that age, was lonely all his life, was extremely obsessed with Buddhism, and was still a little person who entrusted the afterlife. Coupled with the happy spiritual atmosphere he needed when he was a street performer, he was optimistic and cheerful. I've been through a lot. I'm an old Jianghu. I'm cautious and sophisticated. The conservatism of some traditional concepts is a bit pedantic, insisting that "women are not passed on, men are not passed on." This matter is not melancholy, it is very stubborn. Although I live in poverty, I am determined, confident in my exquisite skills and have my own principles, so that I can be "poor and humble". The most important thing is his kind human nature core, which finally prompted him to give up the narrow and backward traditional concept.

Gouwa: Born in the age of son preference, her own fate forced her to bear too much, while other children enjoyed childlike interest. Living is her simplest wish. But after meeting the face-changing king, I enjoyed the beauty of life, longed for it, secretly rebelled, and consciously did everything well. When the boss complained, I also said, "What am I worse than boys?" This is a declaration of resistance. Also very kind, grateful, affectionate and righteous.

Boss Liang: Although he is a red man admired by thousands of people, he has an unfortunate past. Appreciate each other, be artists together, and naturally want to save folk stunts after meeting the face-changing king. Because I play the leading role, I know I have half a daughter. In the age of son preference, I naturally feel sympathy for the dog baby. As the name implies, Living Guanyin is a player, but it is chivalrous and soft-hearted, helping the weak and helping the poor. However, it is still necessary to rely on the power of the authorities to help, and it also has its sad side.

The movie "Face Change /OFF Review 3" "Face Change", a word that sounds full of sense of speed and picture, is linked with news, forming a flashing story chain, which is colorful without losing personality.

I almost finished reading FACE/OFF in one breath, and then I browsed a lot of comments about it. On the one hand, I marveled at the great wisdom of the two authors, who not only gave these young journalists a chance, but also gave the young China News a chance. These behind-the-scenes stories that have not been reported and will not be reported seem to have little to do with journalism theory, but in my opinion, their significance is better than formal classroom education. On the other hand, I admire those young journalists who are called "Struggle". Those true news stories that seem to happen one after another record their growth and progress, infect me, and make my stumbling steps go more smoothly.

China is an easily misunderstood country, and as a media worker in China, it will inevitably be misunderstood or even excluded. Viewed from the side, this book lets the west, mainly American media and China experts, know about the younger generation of journalism in China. Many journalists in China are also engaged in journalism in a very professional way.

Engels said: the greatest honor of journalists lies in witnessing how history is formed. We also learned many authoritative definitions from books, but there are no two identical leaves in the world, and every journalist has a different definition of this profession. Zhou Yijun said that the reporter is never the protagonist of the story. From the beginning of studying journalism, we were told that it was more difficult for girls to be journalists than boys, but Zhou Yijun became a female journalist in the war with her faith and unremitting efforts. The report she sent back from Gaza is full of humanity and concern for people's fate. Her report "Inside and Outside the Settlement" is vivid and true. I think it's not just reporters who report objectively and coldly, but also human nature. When she realized that a Palestinian child had died in her shot, she didn't go back to the office to publish, but went to the little boy's funeral.

I think what she said is quite right. Journalists are never the protagonists of stories. We look at what happens in this world, then record it, attach a correct outlook on life and values to guide the world, and then try to change those anti-human and anti-moral things in this world. It is because of her that I clearly understand what a reporter is. We may face some things, and the role of journalists will become humble and insignificant. We can only watch the plot develop in the direction we least want to see. Whether it is the controversial Pulitzer Prize for photojournalism "Hungry Girl" or the inhuman disaster report, the debate about professionalism and moral literacy has never stopped.

There is a saying in a British news textbook: "Show, don't say". The reporter's job is to record the whole fact, and the conclusion is made by the reader. This is undoubtedly the best way for a reporter to keep his head, which can not only make the facts public, but also avoid being drooled by public opinion. But personally, if I can, I hope to be perfect both professionally and morally, but once the two conflict, I will definitely be moral first. Even journalists can't simplify disasters into cold figures, treat people's pain and struggle as gimmicks, and can't step on the victims in pursuit of commercial interests.

From the moment I chose journalism as my major, I had a seemingly impossible dream, that is, "be a gentleman, be a gentleman, and then make the customs pure", "do morality with iron shoulders and write articles with spicy pens", which is what a reporter should do. However, many times, journalists are just synonymous with a profession and a means of making a living. But after reading this book, I am convinced that as long as I stand on tiptoe, I can get one step closer to my dream. I see more and more that "in a place called socialism, we are actually living in a very primitive corner of capitalism". There are so many things in this society that we can change as long as we dare to write. Wang Jun in FACE/OFF said that journalists have three realms. The first realm, like aliens, depends on the living conditions of people on this earth; Second, history is like a play, and we are the audience in the first row. Watching this drama is quite enjoyable, and you can see many details. The third state is like the child who tells the truth in the emperor's new clothes. To be a reporter, you must have all three worlds. We can't just watch and talk. Although the reporter is not the protagonist of the story, he is also the creator of history. If one effort can change fate, why don't we try?

The past 20 years have witnessed the awakening of media people in China. Writing reports is no longer as blunt as writing judgments, but at the same time, the market-oriented operation of the media has caused many unhealthy trends in the media. But at the same time, we have also seen the emergence of new media people like the waves behind the Yangtze River, which has made students who are full of expectations for the journalist industry like me have a firmer goal. In today's society, journalists are no longer uncrowned kings, and they may even be discriminated against by some people in society. Some people say that others make things out of nothing. This sentence is quite right. What we have to do is to conform to the trend of "changing face" and prove to the world that we are not demons. I also remembered Ma Yin who impressed me the most in Face/Guan. He and Liao Xiaohu grew up together. His unpretentious work in the journalist industry, his sincerity in seeking interview opportunities, and how he made the women's volleyball team see how "journalists are not demons" moved me from working in the women's volleyball team to living. I think the memories of this journey are better than the reputation the world has given you.

I have been in contact with the news for a long time. From the previous confusion to today's confirmation, I think it is the protagonists who have changed their faces that infected me. A book can change a person's temperament and make me look forward to the future. Today's society is sometimes dark, sometimes complicated, and sometimes makes us lose our way. After reading this book, I also asked myself, who should I turn my face to? Today, I recall the memories printed in my mind about it. I don't have much professional knowledge of journalism, but more of a mental infection. I think a reporter with only knowledge and no spirit can only be called a history repeater. This society needs to change its face all the time, not to cater to the so-called progress, but to leave some stories for kindness, stories that we will not regret.

I think I'm more sure. When I leave this field, I will confidently say, "I have done everything for journalists." This is the future I want, and it is the future that FACE/OFF guides me.

FACE/OFF Comments on Movies 4 Basically, I seldom watch detective action movies, except for one person's work, that is domestic John Woo!

It is extreme because FACE/OFF is by far the most successful and decisive work of John Woo in Hollywood. The film has achieved unprecedented success in art and box office. Ten years later, I revisited this classic and still felt deeply.

When it comes to John Woo, we can't help but talk about his "violence aesthetics". So far, although I still can't find a clear explanation of "aesthetics of violence", violence and beauty, seemingly unrelated two things, have made John Woo bring them to the extreme. In his films, violence occupies many scenes, but it is this thrilling, tender or touching scene that gives us full visual enjoyment!

It doesn't matter whether Travolta killed Cage or not, and it doesn't matter whether he can change his face. In the film, we see more complexity and sadness of human nature. Cage seems to be a vicious demon, but at ordinary times, he is cynical and his eyes are wet when he watches his only relative fall from the sky. After all, he is also a human being. Perhaps most of the time, he is working involuntarily.

The real feelings are always out of place in the rain of bullets, just like in Infernal Affairs, seeing the tragedy of police officer Huang falling to his death. Aren't they in pain? Maybe the next second, this emotion will be drowned in the compulsion that seems destined.

Cage prepared a candlelight dinner for his wife after her face changed. What a romantic thing it is. Let's imagine, does Cage know what home is? He longed for it, but fate could not give him this opportunity, nor allowed him to have this opportunity. The poor man can finally enter a sweet dream with his beloved wife on a stable night.

For young Adam, what should have been a sunny rainbow childhood was ruthlessly obliterated by violence. At this moment, Qufu Tower stepped forward, hugged Adam and rushed out. At that moment, they transcended the barriers of human nature, and Travolta's father's love defeated the bullets of the FBI.

In fact, every character in the film shines with the light of human nature and the morality of life and death. And this is exactly what today's society does not have. Perhaps it is this movie that makes countless people remember Cage's melancholy eyes, Adam's lovely smile and the most beautiful things in the world!
