第一部德尼或许是我看过的最ambiguous的影像阳刚与阴柔、铁纪与情愫、躯体和灵魂、军训和琐事……德尼的女性视角丝毫没有干扰到片中的大环境应有的粗粝和荒芜感以及对士兵们原有样貌的刻画相反她精湛的“快摄慢剪”和人物特写使这些ambiguity看起来就像是一种创造性的“嫁接”——将不同事物碰撞产生的生命力作为影像内在的活力国产精品同时又保持这些元素各自的生长特性达到一种迷幻却不失真、间离却能共情的境界那晃动的影像和抽离的叙事效果也并非纯粹为了使观众困惑更是为了将男主在回忆时思绪中的痛苦、压抑和迷失精确地呈现出来结尾已无关剧情本身唯剩极致的cinema of sensation
This is a great miniseries largely due to the already bizarre and compelling story in real life as well as the mountains of material they can work with. In each episode, the moral ground shifts you to support one team or the other -- at least for me. Along the way, all the hypocrisy about the American democracy and freedom of religions.
