这部电影是什么样的?

赖利·维斯涅夫斯基

它会是什么样子? is a film from Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee about what it would take from civilization to advance the world towards its highest potential. We live in a world where a majority of the population only look after themselves. What if we began seeing ourselves as not just individuals, but as a collective unit? What if we began to make choices that weren’t in our own vested interest and began to consider what benefits the greater good? The film tackles many of these questions, pooling together testimonies of actors, nuns, 活动家, and spiritual leaders as well as people from many other walks of life.

The film includes a lot of excellent quotes and philosophies from the subjects in the film, stitched together with B-roll that is hit and miss for me. Although there is plenty of great imagery in the film, sometimes what’s on screen just doesn’t necessarily match what’s being talked about. The film clocks in at just under 30 分钟, which seems a bit too long for the content being presented. I think condensing the film by about 10 分钟将有助于增加有效的幕后花絮所引发的情绪.

我发现真正吸引人的 B-roll 的一个方面是使用并置. 一开始就是一个很好的例子, 当电影开始讲述大自然的各种内含物时. 它从美丽的野生动物照片(例如在草地上放牧的奶牛)到在传送带上进行大量加工的肉类, 我将其描述为与自然之美完全相反的东西. This is an excellent way to provoke thought and emotion without relying on dialogue.

I personally think this piece is a great starting point for people to begin switching their thought process on the topic at hand. There’s definitely some work that can be done to improve the B-roll and runtime, but that being said, you can still take away the filmmaker’s overall message.

我个人会给这部电影 3/5 星星.
