Du Kefeng Photography Style Chongqing Forest

Perhaps The True Story of Teddy Boy is still in the experimental period of Wong Kar-wai style; Therefore, Wong Kar-wai's personal style has matured in this film "Chongqing Forest".

At the beginning of the movie, many hand-held lenses confused me, so I don't know why. By the time I began to understand something, the camera had begun to stabilize and stopped shaking. From those hand-held shots at the beginning to a large number of close-ups at the back, there seems to be a visual effect of Gao Fancha.

The hand-held lens and the close-up about the beating time of the automatic electronic watch reveal a kind of helplessness and sadness as time goes by; There is a contrast and harmony with the relief behind, and the passage of time is expressed in two completely different ways. Perhaps, haste is fleeting; Very comfortable, but very tired.

2. Father and Wong Kar-wai.

My father watched the whole movie with me. I wonder what Wong Kar-wai will look like in his eyes. As far as I can remember, he never goes to the movies. The Wong Kar-wai I saw, or Wong Kar-wai in this movie, was not actually making a movie, but more like a lonely person in the corner of the room, mumbling something to himself.

So I will be surprised that my father, who never watches movies, accompanied me to see the whole Chongqing forest. I don't know what kind of concepts will form in his mind, and he is used to logical thinking. I don't know if dad will also marvel at what young people are thinking now, or what movies are going to express now.

Of course, my father never talks to me about it. So I don't know. Maybe it's not that Wong Kar-wai's movies are really so charming, but that if you just don't look at the flashing screen, you really have nothing to do. This is my daydream about my father and movies when I am bored. Father may be more accustomed to the theme of "tunnel warfare" many years ago than Wong Kar-wai's intimate narcissism, so that he is at a loss.

I saw obvious signs of aging in my father's face. Because I saw the hard outline on his face. I secretly found some sadness that his brows, which had never been wrinkled by machinery and plastics for decades, were actually wrinkled for Wong Kar-wai.

I admit, it was my fault that my father saw Wong Kar-wai. Ha ha.

3. The story of Wong Kar-wai.

It is always a futile job to find the context of the story in Wong Kar-wai's films. And this movie looks clearer.

Several people's stories are connected by some kind of paradox, and it becomes a movie. Perhaps only Wong Kar-wai can use such a turning point so skillfully and tactfully.

Of course, maybe Wong Kar-wai didn't want to tell us this story. Wong Kar-wai just kept mumbling, and what we thought was secondary. Self-expression is the focus of Wong Kar-wai.

After watching this movie, it's actually hard for me to say clearly what kind of idea this movie is expressing. When I tried to find out this problem, I found myself completely lost in the forest of Wong Kar-wai.

Aside from the story of the film itself, it may be the king of Wong Kar-wai.

After all, in Wong Kar-wai's films, the story seems to be a superficial clue of nothingness, just for self-expression. People are the core of Wong Kar-wai's films. Just like reading a novel, everyone has his own style. Some authors are better than the compactness and expressiveness of stories, while others are more important than lyricism. However, as far as novels are concerned, it is difficult to tell which kind of authors are more successful.

The strongest feature of Wong Kar-wai's films is not expression, nor lyricism, but characterization. All the leading roles or supporting roles go in and out of those fleeting scenes in order to shape the characters themselves.

Watching his movies, we may not know what he is talking about, but there is no doubt that the characters created by his lens are all flesh and blood, which left a deep impression on us.

The story is only his surface, and his noumenon lies in the characters under his lens.

4. Takeshi Kaneshiro.

Lovelorn. Running in those flustered hand-held cameras. Suddenly caught this keyword.

Decline. Or sad. Running. This is an exhausted and overwhelmed person. Go to the supermarket every day to buy a bottle of canned pineapple that will expire on May 1. Always blindly believe that after May Day, his love will expire like a can.

Because April 1 day, everything seems to be just a joke. It's just that a whole month has passed since April Fool's Day, and all the jokes will come true.

This character is always running with a kind of sadness. Because all the water in my body has turned into sweat and dried up, there is no tears to cry. However, I like the man's bent back when he squatted on the ground to shine shoes for women.

Telephone machine mania. I think. Answer the phone at the service desk every day just to wait for someone. It's just that that person never answers.

Phone mania. I think. Sit on the floor and call all the women you know, even the fourth graders.

This is a completely exhausted and idle person. Loneliness may not need to be expressed in any words, but the camera is aimed at the man sitting on the ground and talking on the phone until he leaves the place in despair.

I wonder, under what circumstances will I keep a dialogue with everything around me? In an empty room with only one person.

Everything will expire because everything is dated at an unknown time. As for love, no one knows when it will expire. The ten thousand years we all hope for will never come, and no one knows the result, because we will all die ten thousand years ago.

5. Brigitte Lin.

It's over. Escape, a seemingly killing process, is actually just a stop of escape.

Middle-aged women who are constantly running around the city. He seems to be holding on to his hopeless life. Actually, I'm just avoiding my innocent sadness. Looking at this woman, I always have this idea. Very sad. Very sad.

What kind of woman goes to a bar, drinks alone and refuses everyone to come near? In the life of chasing and fleeing all day, such a night may mean the last calm. And when peace can be an occasional feast in life, this woman is full of sadness.

Fall into bed, perhaps the last time to sleep peacefully. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. So, tired to the extreme, maybe only this time to sleep. Looking at this woman, I always have a feeling of being at the end of the road.

Bring a vulgar blonde wig and sunglasses that will never be taken off. This woman is like a prostitute waiting for guests in the street. However, she betrayed her body; She sold her soul.

No one knows whether this soul will stay safely in this world, or how long it will stay. Therefore, her eyes can no longer see a clear world. There is always a gray sad tone behind sunglasses.

Every time I think about this woman, my chest is full of depression. And I have no strength to get rid of this feeling. Sadness is not like sadness, and sadness is not like sadness.

When she was lying in bed, her tired back made me feel so distressed that I couldn't say a word. When I saw Takeshi Kaneshiro take off her sandals and wipe them with a tie, I suddenly felt sorry for her. I don't know what she will think when she wakes up, but her sandals suddenly look brand-new.

I'm thinking, maybe this is her only choice.

It's not indifference and numbness, but bloodthirsty days that make her forget the so-called touching and happiness. And life without emotion and happiness may be meaningless. Maybe that's why I always feel sad when I look at this woman.

6. Tony Leung Chiu Wai.

One person. A room that is not messy. Keep talking to everything in the house. Or maybe it's just mumbling. Loneliness. Or not alone. I just can't find anyone to talk to. Or not.

Just like I often sigh at the computer screen and have nothing to do: watch movies, or not watch movies; This is a problem.

It's not because I can't find someone to talk to. It's just that I'm too tired to tell anyone. If I tell the above sentence to others, maybe I will explain why it is a problem; But talking to the computer screen will never ask me why. More importantly, I don't know why.

Put all your sadness and thoughts into everything in your hand. Comfort yourself or comfort yourself. In fact, there is no difference. In other words, when anyone can see that he is comforting himself, this so-called difference is meaningless.

I always believe that this is a delicate man. It seems that only a delicate man can keep a dialogue with everything in the room like this. However, many times, I still wonder how an exquisite man can secretly change everything at home and even project some emotions without knowing it.

Perhaps, it can only be said that this is a delicate and romantic man. Even if you patrol the same street and a fixed road every day.

Even if you buy a midnight snack, it will never change. A taste that never wants to change shows that this is a man who sticks to all habits and is unwilling to change. There seems to be no doubt that his girlfriend left, a woman who likes novelty and a man who sticks to the rules.

Never reading the last letter shows that he is too fragile to bear any change. He should know what the letter said, but he would rather give himself an unwarranted hope. In this way, the days gradually passed in such unprovoked expectations.

This is an almost fragile and stubborn man. It seems that only such a judgment can be given.

But he will accept other snacks recommended by the convenience store owner, which only shows that he is not so stubborn. But it's nothing, after all, all life is full of contradictions and it is impossible to be harmonious and unified.

7. Faye Wong.

Luxurious. The people in the camera are constantly drifting out of the camera. A little cynical and playful.

Be infatuated with the man you like and his house. So he secretly put on gloves every day and put his feet in his room with plastic bags to play and clean up. Secretly change everything inside.

I remember dear ay talking about how to completely occupy a man's life. Without knowing it, the man secretly changed everything he used into something he gave him. This is a powerful occupation technology.

But she even saved the delivery process. Sneaking around. A little bit, a little bit, all replaced.

I was moved to see her change the trademark of the canned food and fill the man's cupboard. Hehe, the man thought foolishly, I found something that I didn't notice at ordinary times. It turns out that sardines in tomato sauce taste like lobster sauce. Seeing this, I really want to laugh, a warm kind of smile.

Slippers. Toothbrush. Soap. Face towel. Shirt CD. Even the goldfish in the fish tank. Men never find themselves in constant confusion, so the most detailed things are replaced by a woman who loves them deeply.

Surround gently. I don't know what other way can be more gentle and moving than this way.

Because of infatuation. Surround the man you love completely in a seemingly extravagant way. The man he deeply loved played the CD he put there two days ago to himself and told me that it was his girlfriend's favorite music. What kind of secret joy and happiness this will be.

8. finally.

Everyone is a stranger. Except myself.

So the stranger looks cute. Those who pass by and work in convenience stores may be the cutest group. For no reason. Just because of strangeness.

We will talk about some topics that we don't want to talk to familiar people. We will remember things we have forgotten.

In this movie, everything seems to be connected by this convenience store. Always use the first person. Takeshi Kaneshiro, a lovelorn young plainclothes policeman; Brigitte Lin, a depraved and beautiful drug dealer; Tony Leung Chiu Wai, because of inertia uniform police; And Faye Wong, a confused woman freed from all this.

Everyone is muttering to themselves. In the convenience store, or outside, at home, in the street, in the bar, I kept mumbling.

The transformation of the narrator is just a passing look back.

This film is very much like poetry. Beauty is unparalleled. Even if it's just Wong Kar-wai talking to himself all the time.

Urban fairy tales. I kept telling all this in the lens language of the movie. It does look like a poem.

I watched several Wong Kar-wai movies carefully. Watch those movies carefully according to the release time. This is Wong Kar-wai's third film. I want to say that after watching this movie, I finally fell in love with Wong Kar-wai's film style.

There is no reason, just because, if you look for poetry in movies, Wong Kar-wai's movies are undoubtedly the closest to poetry. There is no complete story, and there are not enough simple story clues to maintain the story.

Everything is random, everything is deliberate. When Wong Kar-wai's camera began to describe himself completely, I found that I began to like his flirting.

Movies are not just rigid novels. Movies can also be as lyrical and beautiful as poems. This is what Wong Kar-wai's films taught us. Well, men can actually mumble like Wong Kar-wai. There's nothing wrong with it.

For example, plainclothes policemen in 233 or uniformed policemen in 633. Talk to everything in your home. With a bit lonely, with a bit sad. Indeed, there is nothing wrong. Psychologists warn that we should always express our feelings about ourselves, which is beneficial to our mental health.

In Chongqing Forest, a director wearing sunglasses kept mumbling when he passed by. In his lens, it will always be as clean as poetry. I remember who said, from now on, fall in love with Wong Kar-wai. This makes sense.
