In less than 20 minutes after the opening of "No Country for Old Men", through the appearance of the psychopathic killer Anthony and the old cowboy Moss, a series of highly personalized words and actions completely conquered the audience.

The reason why Anthony attracts the audience is completely by his personal image, the neurotic performance, and the high-pressure oxygen tank of the bull fork, which makes the audience want to stop.

And the old cowboy Moss was completely in a very challenging and dangerous special environment as soon as he appeared, such a hidden murderous fire and scene, and the old cowboy actually went back after he succeeded, which made everyone's hearts rise to their throats.

I have to say that Hitchcock is really a master of suspense, and when the movie arrives here, he immediately guesses that the old cow and the perverted killer will definitely die in the future, and in terms of storytelling, Hitchcock and these people around him are obviously not on the same level.

On screen, Moss returns to the fire and the scene. He is discovered by drug dealers, who chase him and Moss escapes, injured.

A series of tense gunfight scenes made the movie theater silent, and many people covered their mouths and even held their breath.

Then, the camera pans to Anthony, the killer played by Victor, appears inside a grocery store.

Across from him is the owner of the grocery store.

"Me! It's me! "Ronald. Reagan pointed to the screen and yelled.

It's a brilliant show!

"This grocery store owner is going to be out of luck!"

"Oh my God, does he know he's facing a cold-blooded killer?"

The audience began to worry about the poor boss.

But then they saw that Anthony was very nervous discussing trivial things with his boss.

The killer asks the boss what time it closes and when it goes to bed. What do you usually do, blah blah.

A conversation between two people. If it's an ordinary person. The audience is estimated to have started shooting bricks a long time ago at this moment, but this one is different!

One is a super killer, the other is a grocery store owner who doesn't know anything, and when Anthony's cold eyes and illogical questions are presented, the more ordinary the conversation, the more tense the atmosphere seems! It's so worrying.

"Absolutely!" Hitchcock looked up to the sky and sighed.

"What's wrong?" Next to him, Capra laughed.

As a first-class director in Hollywood, everyone knows that this scene is very exciting.

Alfred Hitchcock said to Capra, "Do you know what suspense is? ”

"What is suspense?" Capra looked at Hitchcock earnestly.

Hollywood director. Everyone can tell stories, and there is no shortage of masters, but now many directors understand that when it comes to telling suspense stories, no one is Hitchcock's opponent, so Capra is very interested in Hitchcock's problem.

Alfred Hitchcock said, "For example, two people, face to face, eat. It's all about whether the weather is good or not, and what to eat. The girl next door is not beautiful, do you think this is suspenseful? ”

"Of course not." Capra Road.

Hitchcock laughed: "So what if the camera moves down and the audience sees a time bomb strapped under the table of these two people?" ”

Capra's eyebrows raised visibly: "Great! ”

"Yes, that's suspense." Hitchcock sighed: "This is the highest level of suspense, planting bombs in daily life!" I call it the bomb theory, and Victor. That's how Fellro's scene is done, and he doesn't rely on something as blunt as a bomb, he plays more advanced, and achieves a suspenseful effect through the shaping of characters, no, it's a tense effect! This scene, he, is indeed great! It's completely different from the raw melon eggs in "This Killer Is Not Too Cold". ”

"It's changed a lot. Refreshing. Capra looked at Victor.

At this time, Victor closed his eyes, not knowing what Lu Dao was thinking.

Next, the scene of the killer and the grocery clerk is even more exciting.

Anthony pulls out a coin and asks the clerk to guess.

"Oh my God, he's finally going to kill this poor clerk!"

"yes, it's over if you guess wrong."

"The clerk doesn't know anything about it."

The audience was terribly worried.

On the screen, it was unexpected, and the clerk won.

The audience saw Anthony reluctantly lose the coin to the clerk.

Anthony shook his head as the clerk put the coin in his pocket, and he said sincerely, "Don't, sir, don't do that." This coin is 25 years old, do you imagine, how many places it has traveled, how many people have seen it to come here? It's not like any coin, and if you do that, it mixes up with a regular coin! ”

Through Anthony's insistence on a coin, the audience looks sideways and nods for it.

"Isn't this killer cute?"

"Yes, to be able to think like this about a coin is simply an artist!"

"I love this guy! Like to die! ”

……

This scene has nothing to do with the plot of the whole movie, in terms of structure, this is a scene that completely flies away, but it is precisely this scene, this seemingly scattered scene, but it portrays the heart of this killer and the character of this killer vividly, full of flesh and blood.

It distinguishes the killer from the ordinary killer at once, and it is the only one, and it also conquers the audience and gives the audience a great sense of identity.

Next, Moss, who got into trouble, sent his wife and began to flee for his life.

Anthony, on the other hand, arrives at the scene of the drug dealer's firefight, kills two of his unlucky men, and begins to track down the money.

At this point, the two clues finally got in touch, and the two people began to intertwine.

"Oh my God, Anthony is going to fight Moss!?"

"A cold-blooded killer, a super cowboy, these two opponents, who will win!?"

"Anyone can kill anyone! It's so enjoyable! ”

"Look, take a look! Don't make any noise! ”

In the cinema, it was already a mess at this time. The air is filled with gunpowder, and any match can be lit!

At this time, no matter what shots appear on the screen, it is impossible for the audience to get out anymore! That big screen has become a huge eye paste, sticking the audience's eyes and hearts to it.

On the screen, the killer drove to the hotel. The hostel where Moss lived. The positioning instrument in his hand made a ticking sound, and when he came to Moss's room, the drip sound of the locator changed from intermittent to a tight drip-to-drip continuous sound, and everyone dared not look down.

"It's so nervous! It's so exciting! Laimer simply lit a cigarette to ease his nerves, ignoring the stares of those around him.

"Will he kill Moss?"

"Probably not, right?"

"Who will win?"

"I don't know what to do!"

Clarke. Gable and Gary. Grant is discussing who will win.

Hitchcock watched with all his attention, he leaned forward, put his hands on his face, completely unaware of where he was, and muttered, "Wonderful! This movie is amazing! For the control of tension, for the control of the whole movie, the emotions, scene scheduling, and character portrayal, it is great! ”

"Genius, simply genius." Adolph. Chuck shook his head: "When will our Paramount make such a movie." ”

"Hahaha, you Paramount, I don't know what to do, anyway, our Warner is estimated to have made a lot of money this time!" Sam. Warner vs. Adolf. Chuck grimaced.

"After watching the movie, I'm going to talk to this kid!" Chuck said hatefully. (To be continued......)
