What is movie noir ? Movie noir is not a black-and-white movie, it does not refer to a genre, but rather a special film style that focuses on moral corruption.
movie noir can always arouse more thoughts with its unique charm.
Eagle of Malta
" Eagle of Malta " is the first feature film of "movie noir", and is considered by scholars to be the pioneering work of "movie noir".
The movie restores the novel of the same name by detective novelist Hammit, and presents the mysterious darkness of the original work intact to the audience. The symbols commonly used in detective novels such as mysterious ladies, intractable weirdos, serial murders, etc., are perfectly displayed by directors using imagery methods. As the plot deepens, the relationship between characters and plot clues are transferred in all aspects. From the character’s perspective, the plot and dialogue of the film create a tough guy image that remembers history.
Double compensation
"Double compensation " is one of the greatest noir movies in the history of movies. The style of the film and heavy suspense have had a profound impact on suspense films. As a classic film noir, "Double Compensation" has mature and sophisticated camera vocabulary, exquisite atmospheric structure and meaningful connotations. "Double Compensation" refers to double compensation insurance, which is the core of this story, and the most important driving force and tragedy for the character's behavior. Almost all contradictions and plots are related to it.
The plot of this movie is not only ups and downs, but also exciting. But from the perspective of the plot, the title and plot of this movie actually contain the director's moral morality. The film tells the audience that greed will not only destroy the soul and body of the heroes and heroines in the movie, but also their love and life.
Men's Fight
The most exciting part of the movie "Men's Fight" is also the climax of the whole film. It is a 30-minute crime, with no lines or music, so it is recognized as a classic.
This movie vigorously exaggerates the core action of theft. The protagonist's behavior reflects the ideal extremely masculine codes of behavior and moral standards of the 1950s. Once the four characters form a strong relationship, they will definitely not be stable. There are two sets of comparisons in the movie, Mario who won't betray his friend, Caesar who is completely opposite, the panicked Joe and the calm Tony. In this contrast between right and wrong, life and death, and strength and cowardice, the complexity of human nature is clearly visible.
The movie focuses on details and describes lifelike scenes everywhere. It is more colorful and exciting than the climax scenes of the large clip. What touches the audience the most is the director's description of the relationship between Tony and Madu.
blind well
The movie "Blind Well" is too real. It is more like a documentary than a movie. The role of non-professional actors in the film is also a highlight.
The movie tells a story about human nature, a blind well of human nature. The evil side of human nature is to seek money and kill life. However, when there are bad environments and conditions, human evil thoughts will become more and more serious. Without frequent mining accidents, there will be no chance of making money from mining accidents, and the real version of "Blind Well" will not be staged under the eyes of law and human nature.
Kim Funan's murder incident
Kim Ki-deok 's movies like to tell the most cruel and horrifying stories in the most extreme ways. In the movie "The Beginning of the Kim Fu Nam Murder", it is obvious that Kim Ki-dou's shadow is seen, telling the audience an extremely thrilling story of revenge.
Is Jin Funan weak? No, she is not weak, but she is too extreme.This kind of example is not uncommon in real life, so when facing domestic violence, it is impossible to tolerate it. It is a matter of tens of millions, and it must not be tolerated. Otherwise, you can only be oppressed everywhere until you are unable to bear it. The result of the outbreak is that it hurts the entire family.
Jin Funan's tragedy is a tragedy of society, not her personal tragedy. People's indifference and greed ultimately lead to the tragedy.
Murder Memories
This movie is a crime-themed movie, with a very level of suspense setting and operation, a gloomy and depressing atmosphere, which can be compared with David Finch 's " Seven Deadly Sins ". The humorous unique to Korean movies occasionally flashes in the movie, forming a nearly perfect overall feeling. But if "Memories of Murder" is only that, it is just a high-level commercial movie .
The success of this movie lies in the memory of the era during the dictatorship of the South Korean military government, hidden behind the serial murder story. All sin and anger are actually about that era. The murderer in the movie is always on a rainy night, when the curfew sirens sound, and when there is no one on the street, it is a wonderful irony of those dim years.
The ending is even more shocking, and no one expected that the mysterious story would end in a way without an answer.
Chinatown
"Chinatown" is a classic work of American film noir, with complex plots, rich nostalgia and a suspense atmosphere of detective movies.
The director showed a high directorial level in the first half of the movie. Whether it is the main line or the secondary line, it was messy on the surface, but in fact it was just right for the director to sort it out. Every time an incident occurs, a clue will be left, and the clue will lead to the truth of the next scene. The screenwriter has set various foreshadowings for the ending at the beginning of the movie, and ultimately makes people sigh that all the details of the movie are so important.
This movie repositions the meaning of the movie noir. Whether it is the arrangement of the shot or the setting of the plot, it gives people a sense of cruel realistic. The scene where Jack asked Avelyn in the movie left a deep impression on people. Anyone who has watched the movie should remember Avelyn's shrill screams and the shocking conversation.
Beautiful woman in the genocide
"Beautiful woman in the genre" Whether it is murder or kidnapping, environment, scene and story selection, it is much better than the movie " Citizen Kane " directed by Orson Wells.
This film reflects the darkness and corruption of American society at that time through the stories that took place in small towns in the United States and Mexico, depicts the living conditions of people with moral degradation, and uses the realistic method of "realism" to criticize the social reality at that time.
Take police and gangster films as the story theme, but cleverly uses Gothic expressionism to make it have deeper and richer connotations. It originates from thriller, but it also has weirdness and darkness beyond thriller. Taking film noir as the form, it has realistic beyond black and delicate descriptions of real characters.
The video opens with a long 3 minutes and 30 seconds, describing the social background of the small towns on the border between the United States and Mexico to the audience, making the story unfold naturally in a tense atmosphere, not only showing the chaotic social order at that time, but also bringing an abnormal beauty to the picture.
,000 kalpas forever
The classic of black and white movies lies in abandoning the splendor brought by colors and choosing connotation. Human nature can be ugly or beautiful. But we cannot measure it in this environment by general human standards. There is only one scene in the whole movie, that is, it is at the sea, which makes you feel a little bored while watching the movie while you are reluctant to turn off the TV.
Maybe you can guess that it is impossible for everyone to survive, but you can't guess the reason why these people left, because the existence of all characters is indispensable.
A few days of exile at sea, when everyone was on the dead end, hope appeared, but everyone was silent. You may say that they are scared and don’t know how to explain to the person who saved them, where the others have gone.
I don’t agree with this statement. Their silence is not about joy or fear, but because they lose to human nature.
Crazy Job
The movie " Crazy Job " was written by Hong Kong screenwriter Chen Yunwen to write the real murder incident into a story with suspense and reasoning. Director Ann Hui created a creepy thriller atmosphere in the movie, using the camera to reveal the truth about the love killing incident in detail. Although the overall situation is not perfect, it is completely out of the ordinary.
The director uses a unique female perspective to tell a triangular love-killing incident. In terms of plot or shooting methods, she does not show the tenderness of women at all, but conveys her thoughts on human nature in a realistic and cold manner.
