Biography:

Although the film has just celebrated its centenary birthday, the number of master directors who can make a name for themselves in the film history is still limited. It is not that there has been no progress in the past hundred years, but that there are really few people who have outstanding performances in a certain genre and can influence it for a long time. Hitchcock is the most memorable name of this era.

At present, when a lot of monsters are bullying on the screen and completely forget what a real thriller is, it's time for the master to come out and let everyone miss it. In the history of film, no director can completely control a film: he draws all the mirror images, and the executive director and photographer only need to take pictures. On the screen, he is never lonely and wants to say a few words in the movie, so in his movies, as long as you pay attention. We are sure to find him. This habit of arranging flowers later influenced many directors. For example, martin scorsese (cape fear) is the most obvious example. Scorsese always likes to come here in every movie, scolding the leading role or playing the role of conductor. It can't be said that Hitchcock didn't affect him.

In addition, Hitchcock actually set a number of firsts in film history, and the number of remakes of his works is the first. For example, The Murder Dials M-> Super Perfect Murder Psycho -> 1999 The New Psycho and the Rear Window were remake by Christopher Levi, who immediately broke his spine, and even Hong Kong director Tsui Hark filmed Butterfly Like a Bird. Hitchcock was also the first director to put his big head on a movie poster. Generally speaking, the focus of the movie we watch is always the star. Only Hitchcock, whose star is just a pawn, can play him according to the requirements of the book, so the focus of film promotion is not the actor, but him. Few directors will tell stories before the opening ceremony. He was the first to do this, and this move also influenced later TV. For example, the Japanese drama Detective Gutianren Saburo always says a paragraph at the beginning to prompt today's story, which should also be influenced by Hitchcock.

Who on earth is Hitchcock, who can be so amazing that he still affects filmmakers today 20 years after his death? He didn't have any orthodox film or drama training, and his father was just a fruit and vegetable distributor in East London. He studies at the Maritime Engineering School. /kloc-at the age of 0/9, he joined the telegraph company as a skilled worker and studied art courses at London University, which laid an important foundation for his future achievements. Later, he began to develop into television and advertising. During this period, he also began to contact movies. I entered the film industry at the age of 20 and worked as a title designer and editor. Therefore, when we appreciate his works, we can find a strong opening caption style, revealing a fascinating movie plot. Of course, the concise and creative scene scheduling in his works is closely related to his unconventional editing skills. At the age of 22, he became the screenwriter and artistic director of five films, including Woman to Woman. At the age of 39, he left London for Hollywood. In the second year, the first film "Butterfly Dream" directed in the United States won the Oscar for best film in one fell swoop, which took the first step of success and made him famous in one fell swoop. Later, in the history of Oscar-winning, it can also be said that it was brilliant. With Psycho and other films, it won the Oscar for Best Director five times, and won the "Lifetime Achievement Award" awarded by the Motion Picture Association of America with 1979. Hitchcock can be said to have written a brilliant page in the history of movies.

In the suspense thriller movies we know, it seems that all the elements of murder, blood and violence should be possessed, but in Hitchcock's movies, we can see murder, but it is not bloody; Violence is visible, but not explicit. Not only that, the violent scenes he edited and combined will be worshipped and discussed like a god. For example, the scene of killing people in the bathroom in Psycho has always been an indispensable material for the school to teach the course "Editing". Although many directors tried to pay tribute to the master and made many movies imitating his technique, most of them were scolded as dog blood. It seems that only Brian Dipama (Mission Impossible) has been hailed as Hitchcock's successor, and no other director can learn one tenth of his essence. Are these directors not deep enough? I don't think so, I can only say: Hitchcock is a natural film genius!
