The Romance of Death, a style film mixed with the Shanghai flavor of 1930s, many people didn't know what the director was going to say when they first saw unknown so, and they got familiar with it after brushing it twice.

Throughout the film, the director Cheng Er used Yolanda's words to say, "The director is not ready for people to understand!" Fragmented plot, silent killer, mafia boss planning murder, socialite and neglected concubine, taking care of all the murdered maids, Japanese spies lurking in China.

And it is worthy of professionals to pursue this novel "Death Romance" in detail in order to watch a movie. For ordinary moviegoers, this film has three main lines under the social environment and the atmosphere of the times in the 1930s.

1 eat

Eating is the scene that this film has been shooting. Shanghainese always sit at the dinner table with dignity under extremely dignified scenes. This sense of self-esteem makes up for the romantic fading caused by the destruction caused by the war. Only eating can survive, which is the usual trick of art directors. Eating is a big deal. Think of Acheng's "Chess King", eat and play chess, slowly spend the intense pain and turmoil in life, and endure all the disasters in life. Eating is a force for peace, and it is also a force for peace.

The first match with the Japanese was held on the coffee table.

Ge You was calm and sophisticated, spitting out "tea!" Will the Japanese's cruel heart remain the same?

The party of the three gangs is also at the dinner table.

In the discussion of recipes, the taste of oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea is full of strong vitality.

Ge You could not bear to kill Zhang Ziyi. When the big boss makes a decision, the decision to kill and save lives is decided at the dinner table.

Japanese spies speak authentic Shanghainese, but they open a Japanese restaurant to cook Japanese food for their cats. The film describes many details of his quiet cooking. It seems that the huge waves have been buried for a long time, but the reality shows that the director doesn't follow the routine at all, and his guess is wrong.

When Wang Ma gave Miss Wu a diamond ring as a personal contact, it was also at the dinner table where she ate snacks.

2 Weak political ideology kills people

Violence and sex are usually things that people in China like to watch. As the boss of the underworld, the old Shanghai in the Big Three era was full of murder, murder, war and blood, but the film was not so politicized, and even its ideological orientation was vague.

Kill if you don't agree

Scene layout, long-distance shooting, overlooking the picture, show the bloody violence very slowly, China.

Killers are ruthless. Killing people is commonplace and embarrassing.

The virgin who crawled out of the blood pile was not afraid of death. Killing people is a common occurrence in Shanghai, and the dead are like eating and having sex.

Desire, humiliation, thinness and cleanliness.

If we want to focus a little, Zhang Ziyi's play is the most important. Watching Zhang Ziyi's performance reminds people of Cao, who is desperate and absurd about life in The Golden Lock.

She doesn't like boring marriage, she likes fresh sex, and her desire permeates all the scenes in the film.

When dancing with young people, there are many kinds of customs.

When having sex with a minority, it is a kind of charm.

When I imagined that I could play the heroine, I was naive and happy from my heart, so Ge You couldn't bear to kill her, so she seriously asked, "You took me to run. She wandered among men, and she was tired. " .

She was sent away by a car on the desolate road to Suzhou. She was so bright and lonely. She has always set her eyes on Shanghai, which is the place she left behind. She is so eager to leave this place, but she is attached to it again and again. She is beautiful and lonely.

Music at this time is a sad city, which is fading away irretrievably for some time.

Looking up from sunrise, Zhang Ziyi is wearing a gaudy skirt and luxurious jewelry. Her legs and body are very thin, touching the grass beside her, and there is a kind of sadness and joy that can't be sent away. Is that why Ge You couldn't bear to kill her?

Zhang Ziyi is such an actress. She doesn't feel beautiful when there is no contrast, but when her facial features are presented on the big screen, she knows how beautiful her face is. At the same time, her acting skills are so impeccable.

The highlight is the passionate drama between Zhang Ziyi and Tadanobu Asano. In the dim light, Tadanobu Asano raped Zhang Ziyi, then took her back to her residence and locked her in a secret room. Then Zhang Ziyi was regarded as a "sex slave".

In the film, "eat" and "make love" are repeatedly played. In extreme circumstances, eating and making love are the only things that can be done. Life is naked, we have to eat and have sex, which reflects the distortion and tear of human nature in the war environment. This desire is shameful.

Gillian is a neglected fifth aunt. Gillian's beauty in Sandy is very beautiful in this context. Gillian's love films are about protection and sacrifice.

Huo Siyan's love is a prostitute's love, which is the purest and most moving interpretation. She reached out and wiped away the blood of the virgin with love and kindness.

4 Ge You's love

Zhang Ziyi has a line in the movie: I'm tired of your fraternity, and I want a man with hatred.

This is the case with Mr. Lu played by Ge You. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is smart, worldly, selfish and cowardly, but it is not an exaggeration to say that he knows the great righteousness and loves all beings. This is an open number.

His concentration soothed him, and his responsibility suppressed him, so

He said, "I am not a freewheeling person."

He has love in his heart, so he doesn't want to kill Xiao Liu. He has been looking for the whereabouts of Zhang Ziyi.

"You should go north" to find her whereabouts.

Careful and deep man, after all the joys and sorrows dispersed, chose to go to Hong Kong and take off his hat.

Above, pay tribute to Zhang Ziyi, Huo Siyan, Ge You, Gillian and Tadanobu Asano.

Acting skills should be respected. Five points.

This is better than Jing Tian fighting monsters, at least his acting skills are better than Tian Jing's.
