After watching "Birdman" can't help but shout, magic and absurd means of expression in many cases to deal with the paradox and predicament of modernity is really comfortable ah, it is sly, is sober, and full of Reiki, but from the art of the intoxication sober, we know that this is after all just a reality based joke. In fact, the nature of "Birdman" is still the author of introspection (or self-irony), but this introspection is not like this year Ceylon "hibernation" in the Chekov style of chatter, his expression to be more novel and vivid, Gonzalez could be transposed literary genre in a way full of vitality performance bold to carry out the innovation of the lens expression,
Mercilessly stripped of the only remaining shroud between modern art and business, in the antagonism and fusion of reality and drama to achieve a very imaginative full of introspection of the irony. The bold and innovative expression of "Birdman" makes the film full of Reiki, this anti-mainstream temperament and the film presented by the thinking of the consistent, specific to the role of the film, Keaton plays the role of a strong representative, he has an anti-mainstream, anti-consumerism temperament, He thinks he sold a billion of of junk movies around the world in his early years. He is not as good as the current 800 people of the poor stage drama, he has artistic ambition, but his early benefit from the consumer culture of self-expansion and visibility has become a lifetime of shadow, it is both a stumbling block, but also a potential introspection of the figurative expression. He longed for the recognition of art, but within him it was difficult to throw away the satisfaction of that sense of being, and all he did was to find his own sense of existence, but the self-worth in the reality did not get much recognition, the sense of existence is weak, but the early social recognition is not what he wants, Although the popular of the surface he rejected gave him the satisfaction of swelling.
In the self-worth and social recognition of the desperate struggle, Magic's handwriting will shine. The word popular has the meaning of popularity, but Keaton to achieve the value of the super I am based on the extreme loneliness of the self, Sam smoking marijuana and father quarrelling in the mindless words, basically the existence of modern popular perception, this based on perception of the existence, In the modern information and communication has evolved into a very deformed, he can even be strong to establish another non-my will, and this based on the extreme formation of the will confrontation, roughly also only in the magic realism under the handwriting of the amazing, the existence of this complex philosophical topic in the film in the form of two yuan opposites, In the film, self-will and non-I will struggle to evolve into the struggle between self-worth and popular identity, the relationship between the two in the film in the form of drama and reality confrontation, but to the second half of the story, this confrontation slowly evolved into a non-solvable symbiotic state under the magic handwriting, so the bird really became a bird that can soar. In the back of the movie, Keaton sleeps on the streets after drunk, a will to climb the roof of the city to fly back to the theater, a will taxi back to the theater, after all, is the paradox of modernity, this moment he has come up with a completely unanswered answer, the confrontation between the two has lost a clear line, But the greater self-willpower still urges him to return to the theatre, and the suicide at the end of the stage play, is the moment of self-answer to this unanswered case, if the film to the end of this, the overall effect will certainly be greatly reduced, because such a death is really cowardly escape, so the bird will not die, the will is difficult to destroy, In the end, Keaton, who did not die, reaped great social recognition in this sacrificial performance, and the sense of drama got a greater breakthrough, but the paradox remained, and the maladies were difficult to remove. At this time lying in the hospital bed Keaton face actually entangled a bit like a bird beak medical bandage, this cryptic is really very classic, social identity shaped under the non-my will did not go, the realization of personal value of the self will also be, so the bird people want out of the window free Birds, a leap out of the window, in the eyes of the daughter soar in the
At this moment, the expression of magic has brought us a scene of artistic ascension. Gonzalez deliberately abandoned the narrative complexity when dealing with the film, but spent a lot of time on the extension of space, theater backstage, stage, street, square and other environments in the shooting, a large number of use of seamless long-lens connection, these inconsistent space brought cramped, split, empty, The sense of dissociation to the film character Heart brings the corresponding ductility, with this confused drumbeat, from the backstage of cramped to the stage of division, from the crowded square to the empty city, long lens unbridled wandering, in the drama and reality, antagonism and symbiosis in the quiet existence, greatly weakened the industrial attributes of the film,
This slightly innovative way of expression is in line with the film's surreal temperament, Reiki foot. The irony and introspection in the Birdman are obvious, and the two-dollar antagonistic struggle in the film is deeply rooted in modernity, with no solution to the paradox, the confrontation of value, existence and nothingness, and there is never an answer.
Thankfully, in the form of art they can get the ultimate ascent, because art does not need an answer. So, it's a sad thing to make a comment.
