Two Hundred and Seventy-Seven-Drawing the Audience Into the Rhythm that They Are Good At

The theater suddenly became very quiet. The light from the old-fashioned projector was dim and yellow, and hundreds of people focused their attention on the curtain at the same time.

The first opening animation that appears is always the historical icon of Warner Bros. Several old studio houses have turned into shield-shaped classic logos, as well as the eternal piano background music.

A few seconds of animation passed by, and then the screen suddenly went black, with the huge letters DC appearing, and then came the deep and dark line of letters that fans are already familiar with, "Produced by Wayne Greenberg!"

Since Hollywood entered the 1990s, the appearance of these three opening signs means the emergence of a high-quality movie, and it also means the emergence of another movie fan carnival. The name Wayne Greenberg is the current popular movie fan. A sign of conscience cinema in the eyes.

The darkness on the big screen faded, and the movie officially started. The dark background of the entire screen turned into the dusk after sunset. The camera angle suddenly zoomed into the sky. In the dusk, swarms of bats flew by, and together they formed a The huge bat is Batman’s classic logo.

Before the story even begins, the film clearly tells the audience that this movie is about the birth of Batman.

In the end, the swarm of bats slowly pulled away, forming the name of the film: Batmanbegins, which is "Batman Begins"!

Wayne has always felt that this translation can better explain the core of this film than Batman Begins, and it is also more suitable for this first Batman film that he has revised.

As advertised, under the lens of Wayne, "Batman Begins", as the first of the three dramas to set the tone, pursues to accurately capture some of Batman's ultimate issues, and uses an almost allegorical mode to tell the story. Audience, why is this hero the highest role model in the eighty years since the birth of superheroes?

Without him, that is the so-called "no-kill principle"!

As soon as the camera turned, the film opened with Bruce Wayne and Rachel as teenagers. Two childhood sweethearts were playing in the garden. Unfortunately, little Bruce Wayne fell into an abandoned dry well and fell into the world. A cave beneath the home.

While little Bruce Wayne was waiting for rescue inside, a group of bats rushed towards him, frightening him into panic. From then on, he had a huge psychological shadow on bats and darkness.

This is very important. It is one of the biggest changes in Wayne. When the original Christopher Nolan came here, he used an editing method that disrupted the timeline, directly pulling the camera to after Bruce Wayne became an adult, and then used constant flashbacks. Flashbacks provide fans of that time and space with a more sophisticated account of Batman's growth.

But Wayne didn't do that. He directly used his best linear narrative editing method, which is to unfold the story from beginning to end according to the timeline.

Both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. Wayne's way of telling stories is more suitable for the public movie fans, because this narrative method does not require the audience to use their brains. As long as the eyes follow the film, they can understand the director without having to think carefully. What to tell.

The reason for doing this is also very simple, that is, to expand the movie-watching group, so that even children can understand it at a glance.

Why was Marvel so powerful in the past? Regardless of whether Marvel's superheroes are childish or childish, even if saving the earth is like a fight between elementary school students, it is because of its simple plot line that more groups can understand it, and incredible explosions occur every time. box office.

Of course, it is impossible for Wayne to adopt the juvenile style of Marvel, but he can still make the story simple and easy to understand and restrain his desire to show off his skills.

The film continued to play. After little Bruce Wayne fell into a dry well, his kind father Thomas Wayne picked him up and told him the words that affected little Bruce Wayne's life:

"Why do we fall? Because so we can learn to stand up!"

Obviously, young Bruce Wayne still didn't understand this truth. The shadow of bats and darkness has been lingering in his head.

After the film, we briefly explain the identity and background of Thomas Wayne. Old Thomas is equivalent to the richest man in Gotham City. In Wayne's version of Batman, Thomas Wayne is a complex figure with a very high reputation. and fame, but also possess the characteristics of a capitalist.

In Gotham City, a city with "simple folk customs", the people at the bottom were in distress several times, but it was all supported by Thomas Wayne. So he built an elevated railway train, connecting the entire city, and the center directly connected to Wayne, the symbol of Gotham City. building.

Old Thomas wants to use this method to reconnect people from all walks of life and restore Gotham City to life.

But as the camera continued to advance, all the viewers were reminded of the previous film "Joker". By supplementing the background of Old Thomas in the previous work, everyone will understand that he is a complex capitalist. The hardship of the people at the bottom of Gotham City is more or less related to him as a capitalist, but he also has a kind heart.

After that, the plot entered a point that everyone is familiar with. The Wayne family appeared in the theater to watch an opera. People in the theater were in suits and ties, but outside the window, there was chaos.

This is obviously taking over the ending of "Joker" and is also the starting point of Batman's story.

During the performance, little Bruce Wayne saw the devil-like bat shape on the stage, which reminded him again of the fear of swarms of bats, and a look of pain appeared on his little face.

"What a wonderful setting!" Bella Grant, who was sitting in the media area, couldn't help but sigh when she saw the opera. Apart from her identity as a well-known reporter and editor, she has always been a senior movie viewer, and her job as a reporter and editor is , and brought her good knowledge.

The photographer sitting next to her turned his head and didn't understand why an opera in the film turned into a wonderful setting. In his eyes, it was just an origin point to set off the story.

Moreover, this story about Batman's parents being killed was probably unknown to everyone in North America, so he turned his head in confusion and looked at his old partner. "What's the meaning?"

Bella Grant rolled her eyes, moved her upper body a little closer to him, pointed at the opera on the big screen, and used a voice that only the two of them could hear to spread the knowledge about movie watching to her companions.

"The opera that appears in the film is called "Mephistopheles". It is a famous opera from Botoi in Italy. The plot is adapted from the timeless classic "Faust". It tells the story of the elderly Faust, The story of Faust who made a devil's deal with the devil Mephistopheles and became a young man and walked around the world."

"Oh my God." The photographer looked at her in surprise. "I didn't expect you to know so much, but what does this have to do with the movie? I don't understand why Wayne gave a background opera and so many shots."

"Shut up." Bella Grant drank softly, glanced sideways at her ignorant partner, and continued: "What's important is what comes later. The opera being performed now is "The Demons" in Act 2, Scene 2. Night of Feast".

Well, to put it bluntly, the devil is on the throne and the demons are celebrating to make way for Mephistopheles. Pay attention to the devil shapes. Wayne has specifically embodied them. What do they look like? "

The photographer blurted out one word. "bat?"

"That's right." Bella Grant said with some excitement: "Wayne deliberately integrated the devil and the bat in order to arouse the fear of little Bruce Wayne and make the origin of the story more convincing."

As soon as she finished her words, little Bruce Wayne on the big screen became too frightened and began to beg his father to leave early.

Seeing this, the beauty editor-in-chief raised her lips proudly, knowing that her analysis was correct.

Originally, she was a little disappointed with the film from the beginning to the present. She felt that Wayne told the story too superficially in order to cater for more fans' viewing experience.

But after this scene, she understood that Wayne Greenberg had not changed. He not only had a story line that took care of the public movie fans, but also gave fans who like to explore art exciting points.

Basically, fans of every genre can find the director's sincerity in the film, and the overall dark photography style of this film simply did not disappoint die-hard fans who like his personal style at all.

"This movie is a perfect combination of business and art!"

The photographer still didn't understand what made the beautiful editor excited. Seeing that she looked a little nervous, he shook his head and continued to focus on the movie.

The following is a classic shot. After the Wayne family came out of the back door of the theater and were walking in an alley, they were suddenly called out. "Hey, Wayne! You're fucking paying for it!"

When the old Thomas family turned around, a man wearing a clown mask pointed a gun at them. Two shots were fired, and Bruce Wayne became an orphan.

"At least I understand here. Isn't this the scene at the end of "Joker"?" the photographer muttered, with a look of realization on his face.

Not only himself, but almost all the fans in the audience had the same look. Who among the fans watching the premiere here has not watched "Joker" several times?

This is a classic scene, no matter in any Batman movies or comics, there is a similar scene, where little Bruce Wayne watched his parents being killed.

Here, in order to take over "Joker", Wayne did not design the most popular robbery method, but put a clown mask on the shooter.

However, in this scene, Wayne still retained several essential elements that would appear in every scene. "Purse," "Alley," "Coat," "Pistol," and "Broken Pearl Necklace"!

Therefore, in the heart of little Bruce Wayne, it was his request to leave early that led to this tragedy. He believed that he had killed his parents.

This also left him burdened with indelible grief and trauma. This tragic memory was intertwined with his fear, turning into a shadow area in his heart that could not be erased, following him like a shadow.

Not to mention senior film critics and media, even ordinary movie fans who are watching the movie at this moment can feel the pain of little Bruce Wayne. Because of Wayne's special design and connection with "Joker", all movie fans are starting to Falling into the rhythm of the story he is best at.

That is to draw the audience into the world of the film's protagonist, allowing the audience to experience everything that Wayne has prepared with empathy.

Wayne is the only director in Hollywood to achieve this effect by telling stories in movies. This is the mark of his master that cannot be erased!
