Bessons directing seems strangely calm for Besson. His other movies have more oomph to them. More beauty shots. This one is more normal. More static shots. Less camera moves. Until the action starts. And then he gives you the good stuff. It seems like he is intentionally trying to deprive you from beauty shots or dynamic cuts or slow motion until there is impact to be had with those. He is not shooting a conversation like an action scene. ( Spielberg would shoot a conversation like an action scene ). He shoots an action scene like an action scene. Though there are funny or interesting compositions in the movie that I like. One of them happens toward the beginning when we see Leon taking a subway. The posture that Jean Reno did in that shot spoke so much. Before that shot I thought that Leon is a kind of 90s Hollywood action hero type. But the posture is so melancholic and broken, while trying to be the opposite that it gave a promise of a completely different movie. On which it then delivered. One more good shot is toward the middle of the film where Matilda gives Leon a hug and Besson decided to point our attention to the fact that her shoes do not touch the floor. Or in one place during an action scene you get a very funny extreme close up of Leon's nostrils.
herself. But now, that the barricade of ideas was broken, she could speak to Chloe a little bit more clearly. One downside of this situation Sheiny realized but didn't feel much through was that Mr. Hambleton was revealed to Chloe now too. Mr. Hambleton was afraid at first, but he realized that Chloe is quite a bright girl herself. And that he is not under any threat from her. "Relax, Hamb... I'm not police." were the Chloe's words that calmed Mr. Hambleton a little. But there was a bit of calming down yet to be had by him after school to realize that he is not going to jail quite yet.
The only think I want to add to this review is the presence of Jean-Marc Barr in the film. Because Jean-Marc Barr fucking rocks.
In the last week or so I started feeling a loss of interest to do anything what so ever. But since I do the live-streams, the main progress on the movie still marches forward with a steady pace.
Moria's Race project is confidently marching forward with a steady pace. Didn't cripple the project even the larger amount of highly technical shots that I decided to make for it. Something that would most definitely cripple a production of something like I'm Not Even Human.
If there is a barrier of how good you can live when you work such illegal jobs, you far less likely going to work such illegal jobs. Which means you will more likely to double-check everything related to your taxes. Therefor pay the taxes more efficiently.
But from the other point of view Entropy is an idea of a kind of chaotic freedom. Of equality of the system that is created not by oppression, but by letting the molecules do whatever they want to do. Imagine a cup of black coffee and another cup of milk. One is black, one is white. But when you poor the milk into the coffee and let it sit there alone. The whole thing will become one color, somewhere in between the two. But it will get there alone. The only help you can give it is stirring. As in adding more chaos to the system. Not adding more strictness. If you will try to keep the system strict. For example by putting a barrier, or by freezing everything, you will prevent it from mixing and therefor prevent it from becoming equalized.
