What makes Hitchcock movies?

First of all, Hitchcock's film technology is purely cinematic. He really tells stories by shooting and editing. These things had a great influence on later films. Some people may think, "shouldn't movies tell stories with movies?" But the fact is that many directors can't tell stories with movies. Hitchcock's films were all pure entertainment films at that time, but they influenced countless directors. Many books about film scheduling photography can see his films as examples.

The script is very detailed, and before each film starts shooting again, he knows exactly what it is like, including the sound effects. Therefore, the material he shoots is very similar to the final film, a bit like animation, and basically does not shoot useless shots. The ratio of material to film of many directors may reach1:1above. As for Wong Kar-wai ... they are definitely from two sects, and they don't talk to each other.

The phrase "an actor is an animal" is somewhat misunderstood, but he really can't tell an actor a play. For example, an actor likes to ask why a character does this, and his answer is: for your pay. He is good at creating an atmosphere in the techniques of photo editing of plots and scenes. At this time, the actor's acting skills are not the most important.

Suspense setting: His "bomb metaphor" should be known to all writers. When two people talk, the bomb under the table suddenly explodes half an hour later, and the audience will be surprised. However, if you let the audience know that there is a bomb under the table from the beginning, the whole conversation between the two people will become suspense. This theory was later widely adopted by all suspense action movies in Hollywood. This stems from his childhood experience in a missionary school. When he makes a mistake, he can choose the time to accept the punishment. The average child will put the punishment time to the end, causing him to be in fear all day. Others, such as "setting something that doesn't exist at all" and "committing a crime in broad daylight", also have a far-reaching impact on later story setting.

Finally, a little gossip: Hitchcock's name in the second half actually has indecent meaning in their language, so he likes to tell others, call me Hitchcock, there is no Kirk.

His biggest dream is to walk into a clothing store at will and buy a suit that suits him. It is estimated that this wish will not come true until his death. Although he has always shown people in a fixed suit, he actually has a lot of other suits that he can hardly see when he is on a business trip. He tried to lose weight by eating oranges several times in his life, and then he quickly bounced back.

He likes painting, and his first job in a film company was to draw subtitles and design titles.

Hitchcock was a sensitive, introverted, shy and inactive little fat man when he was a child. When he grew up, he still had the shadow of this little fat man in his fat body, and he was often nervous because of filming, so he comforted himself, "This is just a movie." However, this is more suitable for domestic directors to comfort themselves. This fat man has never made a movie with this mentality in his life.

If you want to know more, Hitchcock's biography "This is just a movie", you can look at his movies and life experiences. The dialogue between Hitchcock and Trevor shows more creative thinking.
