What are some examples of montage movies?

1, parallel montage lists two or more plot lines in different time and space or in different places at the same time in the same structure. This technique is conducive to generalization and concentration, saving space, expanding the information content of the film and strengthening the sense of rhythm of the film. Due to the parallel performance and mutual contrast of several clues, it is easy to produce a strong artistic infection effect.

For example, in If You Are the One, Roi kept trying various blind dates in his spare time, showing his life during that time. The protagonist Roi is living his own life while dating. Roi was particularly tired from sweating, but he still wanted to make a blind date, indicating that he was not in a good state at that time. But continuing to struggle means that life will continue.

2. Cross montage: also known as alternating montage, which shows that several plots that occur in different places at the same time are interdependent, one of which affects other plots, and multiple plots are interdependent and finally converge. This technique can easily arouse suspense, create a tense and intense atmosphere, and strengthen the sharpness of contradictions and conflicts, which is a powerful technique to grasp the audience's emotions.

For example, in Infernal Affairs, Aren met with police officer Huang on the rooftop, was betrayed by an inside ghost, and police officer Huang was killed. Underworld came after undercover, and so did the police. A Ren and Officer Huang are discussing how to leave. At the same time, the gang and the police are going upstairs to catch the mole. Through this cross-technique, I constantly show the progress of my role, and at the same time, the tense concert gives people a sense of urgency.

3. Repetitive montage: equivalent to the way of narration or repetition in literary works. In this montage structure, meaningful shots appear repeatedly at critical moments to achieve the purpose of depicting characters and deepening the theme.

For example, in the movie The Lost Girl, the characters, actions, scenes and lines at the beginning and the end are the same, and the only change is the hair color. It has an echoing structural design, while deepening the theme and exploring the proposition of marriage.

What is a "montage"? Montage means "editing" in French, but it has developed into a theory of lens combination in movies in Russia. For example, when we put mom's cooking, washing clothes, and taking children and dad to read newspapers together, we will feel that mom is "busy".

Thus, a contrast technique is produced, which highlights some specific characteristics of people or things. Two different fragments are interrelated and bring unexpected effects to people.
