Analysis of Three Gorges Good Man Lens

In Jia's films, the camera position, optical axis and focal length of the fixed long lens are fixed, and most of the lenses are straight-looking, which is consistent with the audience's line of sight. The visual experience brought to the audience is a quiet life, which is conducive to objectively recording and reflecting the state and changes of the subject in the static environment.

Almost all films are shot with long lenses, so I always thought Jia's films were documentaries. From the beginning, the film shot a stunning long shot from the bow to the stern, showing the life of the people at the bottom of the boat vividly, dirty, chaotic, vulgar, and entertaining themselves until the protagonist appeared.

The long shot is an aesthetic method, and its influence on me is a reflection on culture, my own cultural environment, cultural habits and cultural experience, not a change in technical level or specific treatment level, but a sort of grand cultural consciousness level.

The occurrence and development of the story "The Good Man of Three Gorges" shows the freedom of life in long-shot paragraphs and the fate and strength of people in the changing times in a conscious realistic style. We believe that the film with the bottom perspective and humanistic care as its core spirit will surely impress more and more audiences and generate a wider buzz of ideas because of its unique artistic style and profound cultural connotation.

Extended data:

Fengjie county, Chongqing, which is building the Three Gorges Project, welcomes two Shanxi people, a man and a woman. Han Sanming (Han Sanming), a native of Fenyang, a loyal and honest coal miner, came to Fengjie to find his ex-wife whom he hadn't seen for 16 years. His ex-wife used to buy it with money, and ran back to Fengjie after giving birth. The process of finding his ex-wife was full of twists and turns, and Han Sanming decided to stay as a coolie until his ex-wife appeared.

Shen Hong (Zhao Tao), a Taiyuan woman, is a taciturn nurse who comes to Fengjie to find her husband who hasn't been in touch for many days. The relationship between her and her husband has long been a phantom. Although she knows this very well, she still wants her husband to give her a statement face to face. Zhao Hong's search process is not smooth sailing, and her husband is avoiding her intentionally or unintentionally.

Although Han Sanming and Shen Hong are strangers, they have a mysterious connection because they have to choose between "possession" and "abandonment" in a relative sense.

After the film screening, director Jia told about the creative inspiration and hardships of the Three Gorges good people at the Centennial Forum, and also had face-to-face exchanges and interactions with Peking University students. Jia shed tears twice when talking about the original intention of filming and his cousin Han Sanming, the star of this film.

Speaking of this brotherhood, Jia recalled: "We were very close when we were brothers and teenagers. We left home after 18 and 19. He went to work in the coal mine and gradually alienated.

But I know all the feelings are surging in his heart. Every time we go home, we seldom talk, very distant and strange, so we look and smile occasionally. When I think of this movie, I think of his face. Every time I see his face, I know what to say "

Jia said that this is also the reason why he has been making such films, and the reason why he has been unwilling to take the camera away from such a face for ten years.
