Oh, and I’ve removed all sound and color from the film, apart from a score designed to aid you in your quest to just study the visual staging aspect.
Note that the music is only intended to be filler.
Otherwise, watching this in black and white really made obvious how well staged and choreographed the film is. I don’t consider myself much of a Spielberg fan, but I was impressed.
If the music bothers you, try the section at 1:22:35. It goes pretty well with that scene.
- germinalphrase 6y agoI think Jaws holds up very well, too. It is a wonderful transitional film between classic and new Hollywood shot tempo and visual style.
- lai-yin 6y agoI know this is an easy downvote and foolish statement, but I find very few pre-90s blockbuster movies to be watchable. Spielberg's movies hold up well though. There are a few others, like When Harry Met Sally, that I also still love.
- solipsism 6y agoClash of the Titans is top notch.
- gumby 6y agoI agree (including When Harry Met Sally) if you include ~1935-1955 which was a of great experimentation. The films that held up well weren’t always the prize winners though.
- kenjackson 6y agoJust watched Trading Places and it was still really fun.
