Behind the Scenes: The Comics Master and the Black Stars

The film is adapted from the classic comic of the same name by the famous comic book master Frank Miller. Frank Miller was born in Omea, Maryland in 1957. In 1986, he launched his comic debut "The Black Knight Reappears", which immediately attracted widespread attention from the industry and readers. If in the 1970s and 1980s, Frank Miller's many comics of "Wolverine" and "Batman" based on his predecessors only brought him fame within the circle, then in the early 1990s, He gave up the mainstream and took a unique approach and launched "Sin City", which truly established his status as a master in the comics industry.

During the "Batman" period, Frank still handled his works in color, and when "Sin City" was launched in 1993, he paid attention to absorbing Raymond Chandler, etc. It has the characteristics of the black detective novels, as well as the famous work "The Wolf with the Belt" by Japanese manga masters Kazuo Koike and Gou Kojima. It boldly uses black and white to create, and the brushstrokes are chaotic and orderly, emphasizing the contrast of light and shadow, creating a unique style of crime. It also breaks readers' previous inertia of preferring color comics.

The "Sin City" series has unique black and white images, strong cinematic scenes and traditional engraving style. Frank Miller's painting style is delicate and good at describing the impact of violence and blood on human nature. At that time, In the field of mainstream comic creation in the United States, authors and screenwriters are often separated, which sometimes results in a disconnect between plot and painting. Frank is one of the few writers and painters who are both excellent.

The publication of "Sin City" immediately attracted a large number of comic fans. For them, this is the work that truly represents Frank's strength. Its birth made Frank Miller enter the hall of masters. He is known as the magician of the black and white world, and his creative style also had a huge influence on later comics, such as Mike Mignola's "Hellboy" and "The Punisher".

Super luxurious cast and crew:

The cast of this film is very luxurious. The American director Robert Rowe, who has directed famous films such as "The Murder Trilogy" and "Once Upon a Time in Mexico", Driggs successfully obtained the film adaptation rights of the comic. In order to prevent the film from adapting the style of the original comic, he and the original author Frank Miller served as the screenwriter of the film. At the same time, he insisted on adding Frank Miller's name to the director's post.

In addition to these two directors, the film also invited Quentin Tarantino to serve as the film's honorary director and direct part of the filming. In addition to co-writing and directing, Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller also co-produced the film.

In addition to three famous directors, "Sin City" has attracted many well-known actors to participate in the performance. In addition to Mickey Rourke, Clive Owen and Bruce Willis, who played the protagonists in the three videos respectively, the film gathered many popular stars, including Josh who starred in "Black Hawk" Hartnett, Benicio Del Toro starring in "21 Grams", Jessica Alba in "Dirty Dancing" who has a beautiful waist, Elijah Wood in "Lord of the Rings" , Brittany Murphy in "Newlyweds", Michael Clark Duncan in "The Green Mile", Nick Starr in "Terminator 3", etc.

According to some internal sources, most of the actors who agreed to participate in the show were out of love for the original comics, and many of them volunteered to appear.

Comment: Unique psychedelic violent aesthetic style

The film is adapted from a famous comic book, but it is fundamentally different from other popular comic-based films. In the film , there are no superheroes, and there is no absolute justice. Each protagonist in the three stories is the embodiment of perversion and violence.

Rosario Dawson, who played the role of a prostitute in the film, told a very interesting story. She once told her mother that she was like a perverted queen, but her mother was not. She was not surprised as to what Dawson's role was. She replied that she was a prostitute, but her mother insisted: "I'm not asking you this, I just want to know what your transformed image looks like."

Just like the original comic, this is a movie full of despair, darkness, and anarchy. It is full of fighting without distinction between right and wrong, bloody violence, unabashed pornography, etc. But the carrier that expresses these contents is so full of dreamlike appeal, the huge contrast between black and white colors, and the extreme enhancement of the comic style. All of these create the charm of this movie, a flamboyant psychedelic violent aesthetic style.
