Superstar
Chapter 1357: Upset
Joshua did not wipe the embarrassment on his cheeks, the tears had stopped, but the eyes were still faintly shining with water, and the tears that gradually lost their temperature reflected the turbulent deep in his heart.
The big screen was darkened, and the cream-yellow lights in the projection hall slowly turned bright, but no one stood up, including Joshua. Everyone sat in their place, watching the slow motion on the big screen. The subtitles slowly rising, silent. Maybe it's not that they don't want to speak, but they can't speak, because the shock brought by the movie makes them lose their language, and more importantly, the shock brought by Hugo's performance makes all languages incapacitated.
Until all the lights in the projection hall were on, Joshua still had no way to erase Matthew's eyes trembling because of fear, regret, and pain from his mind!
The perspective of "Death Row" is the nun Helen, but the core is the death row Matthew.
Contrary to what Joshua thought, this is not to tell the story of the death penalty and justice, but to discuss the extremely sensitive topic of the death penalty. One is a murderous demon with no regrets, full of lies, and evil spirits; the other is the family members of the victims who are heart-piercing, ruined, and distraught; the other is a pious, sincere, kind, wise and weak nun. Pulling and entanglement support the whole story.
Tim Robbins did not add his own point of view. He only told the story as a bystander. He sympathized with the families of the victims and showed their anger, pain and desolation to the fullest; at the same time, he would kill the devil. The situation was truly revealed, the situation of his family, and his own situation.
Matthew is a demon. There is no doubt about it. Although he hesitated to kill Walter, he still pulled the trigger. After that, he even lied, never repented, and even ranted that he wanted to join in terror. Organize, admire Hi. special. What Le did. Such Matthew is simply outrageous.
But behind this, Matthew’s past is sympathetic. He has never really joined this society. Unfortunately, he lost his father at the age of fourteen and worked in a poor area. His work was not rewarded. , But a lot of black. Man relies on government relief to go idle; he and his wife divorced, and his ex-wife even reported him; he was first regarded as an alien and rebellious, and then he was regarded as a murderer, a beast or a demon; his mother was weak and unable to support him. This family... is such a person who is constantly ostracized by society. He has never had the opportunity to be recognized by the society, even if there is no trace of warmth. How can such a person view society with an equal mentality?
So he has no feelings for the government, so he speaks loudly, is fully guarded, and is full of thorns, so he has no repentance after killing Walter-Karl, who has the same crime or even more serious crime, is just a life imprisonment...social indifference and indifference. Injustice left him wronged and nowhere to go.
Of course, there are many people who have similar lives to Matthew, and it is still unforgivable to choose to commit a crime, not to mention brutally strangling a fresh life. But it makes people wonder, if someone, even just one person, could give Matthew a ray of warmth, would he not embark on this road of no return?
The contradictions, entanglements, and conflicts of Matthew's mentality are fully displayed in front of every audience in Hugo's performance, and there is no need for lines. It is just an evasive look, a trembling cigarette lighter action, and a tearful person. Sobbing, it leaked Matthew's tormented heart. And the process of Matthew changing little by little under Helen's influence makes people involuntarily moved.
Love, this is extremely powerful energy, Helen used her selfless love to make Matthew wake up.
Therefore, at the end of the movie, Matthew’s contrition was so impactful that he was just a victim. When Matthew admitted that he was a victim, the sorrow and shock in his heart made almost every audience stunned. Weeping; therefore, before the execution, Matthew’s last words were so powerful that it was wrong to kill. Whether it was him, someone else or the government, it was killing a living life. No one deserves such a result. And Matthew chose or was forced to choose to use his own life to repay the other two lives. This is not an equal transaction. He only hopes that the hearts of the two victims' families can be calmed down.
Hugo’s performance was so calm, so simple, and so indifferent, but the reaction it caused swallowed all the audience like a tsunami. The eye-catching eyes were so deeply imprinted in every audience’s mind, tears of tears. The feelings were so mixed when I fell, not sympathy, not sadness, not pain, not excitement, not happiness, but pure tears, the turbulent but so complicated in my mind, every trace of emotion was turned upside down under the influence of Hugo's performance. .
Epic acting! Hugo almost relied on the power of one person, and with that delicate and sincere performance, Matthew's inner conflict and struggle were brought into full play. It was also the fear, hesitation, and confusion that brought Matthew closer to death step by step. It directly interpreted the core idea of the whole movie about the discussion of the death penalty to the extreme, making a seemingly simple and straightforward movie burst out with a grandeur, and the depth condensed in the amber eyes of Hugo, let the movie lingering rhyme. Can't dissipate for a long time.
In fact, Matthew's situation is to a large extent a microcosm of society. Although the focus of the "death row" is not the culprit who created Matthew, it is whether the execution of the murderer is a kind of "killing", but Hugo's performance has brought the whole movie to a higher level, reaching a whole new level, making the tsunami of thoughts in his mind unquenchable for a long time.
Regarding the discussion of social indifference, the "seven deadly sins" have been discussed in depth, but the atmosphere of the "seven deadly sins" is more of a religious ritual atmosphere, and there is too little time for anonymous people, David Fincher is more It focuses the story on the sense of reincarnation in which the seven deadly sins can be realized. But this time, "Death Row" has given Hugo enough room to play, relying on Hugo's outstanding performance to sublimate this problem.
There are too many tragedies in life, but many times these tragedies are caused by the social system. Although we cannot ignore the blood of executioners, the law still needs justice, but behind justice, we When condemning the executioners' cruelty and cold-bloodedness, the decay and loopholes in society cannot be ignored.
"Death Row" is stingy in the description of Matthew. It only reveals some information through Matthew's words, but the image of Matthew appears in every audience's mind very clearly, not just now. , There are the pains of the past, the bitterness of the heart, and the struggle of thoughts. It can even make people see the imprints of social indifference on him-imprints that cannot be erased for life, and are accompanied by them. He entered the tomb together with the mark.
All this is just because of Hugo’s performance. It’s hard to imagine that Hugo’s seemingly ordinary performance has created such a magnificent stormy sea in everyone’s heart, making the "Death Prisoner Walk" not only deeply discuss the death penalty, It also made people face up to the problems of socially disadvantaged groups once again. The two intricate problems were perfectly combined to create this work that triggered a thought storm.
It turns out that this is the power of performance! This is epic acting!
Until this moment, the long-lasting shock in my mind made Joshua truly understand what happened to Hugo. Although Joshua didn’t know how Hugo overcame the difficulties and how to do it, but He knew that Hugo's performance in "Death Row" was definitely one of the best in history. The eyes that were enough to shake the soul finally let Joshua know why Hugo was schizophrenic during the filming of this work.
Thinking of this, Joshua's heart was filled with unspeakable admiration. He knows that "Death Row" is a good movie, but compared to the movie, he respects Hugo's dedication and talent. He must stand and applaud to express his admiration for Hugo with such actions.
Recalling the rebellion on August 5th, Joshua burst out with unprecedented pride. This is the real Hugo, the Hugo he longed for. So Joshua did just that. He stood up and patted his hands vigorously.
Joshua’s actions made everyone else in the theater look wrong~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In fact, most of the first batch of people who entered the cinema with Joshua were loyal Hugo fans, but they had to admit that, The movie "Death Prisoner Walk" is too heavy, it is more silent, and the thoughts in the mind are constantly tumbling, and there is no way to find a catharsis. It is not the kind of work that makes people unable to speak and stand up and applaud. . Joshua's movements seemed too unusual.
But in the eyes of countless people with surprise, Joshua stood stubbornly on the spot, clapping at the continuously sliding subtitles, staring at the big screen motionlessly, as if Matthew’s tearful eyes were on his deathbed. In front of me so.
One after another, several people seemed to understand Joshua's intentions, and they also stood up and applauded. But this was a minority after all, and there were less than ten people standing alone on the scene, slapped their hands vigorously, and gave applause for the "death prisoner's walk" and Hugo.
More viewers slowly left the theater with hesitating, thinking, and silent expressions. The real excitement of a movie like "Death Row" only begins after the end of the movie. The reflection storm that it sets off in people's minds is the key to the success of the film.
Obviously, like the audience, the thought frenzy of film critics has just begun!
