This book examines the art and craft of motion picture photography through a veteran professional cinematographer's personal experiences on five major motion pictures, each selected to illustrate a particular series of challenges for the photographer.
"Every Frame a Rembrandt" is an expression heard on sound stages and locations the world over. While in most cases the expression is used lightly and not infrequently with a certain amount of sarcasm, its true meaning speaks highly of most cinematographers' commitment to producing the best, most interesting, unusual and memorable images for the screen. Through the five films he selected for this book Laszlo is able to show the broad range of complexity in motion picture photography, from the relatively simple "point and shoot" in the typcal western to complex in-camera effects. In recounting his "war stories" Laszlo is able to show the day to day activities of a cinematographer before, during and after filming the project, discussing equipment, film stocks, testing, labs, unions, agents, budget requirements, and working with the director and producer. The five films discussed are Southern Comfort, The Warriors, Rambo: First Blood, Streets of Fire, and Innerspace. The book is illustrated throughout with production stills from Laszlo's extensive collection (12 in a color insert).

这本书的叙事简直是一场视觉盛宴,作者对细节的捕捉能力令人叹为观止。它不像传统的传记或历史著作那样枯燥乏味,反而像一部精心剪辑的电影脚本,每一个转折点、每一个关键人物的登场,都处理得恰到好处。我特别喜欢作者在描绘那些看似微不足道的场景时所流露出的那种深厚的情感,那种对生活细微之处的敏锐洞察力,使得整个故事充满了生命力。你仿佛能亲身感受到那个时代的气息,那些人物的挣扎与辉煌。在阅读过程中,我时常会停下来,重新回味某些段落,思考作者是如何将如此复杂的事件编织得如此流畅自然。这种对节奏的精准掌控,让读者在沉浸于故事的同时,又保持着一种清醒的欣赏视角,实在是一种难得的阅读体验。它不仅仅是在讲述一个故事,更像是在雕琢一件艺术品,每一个词语的选择都充满了匠心。
评分这本书最让我震撼的,是它在探讨人性困境时所展现出的那种近乎冷峻的坦诚。它毫不避讳地揭示了在极端压力下,个体所面临的道德选择与生存博弈。作者仿佛站在一个高处,以一种超然的视角审视着芸芸众生,既不批判,也不同情,只是客观地呈现事实。这种冷静的态度,反而比激烈的情感宣泄更有力量。它迫使读者不得不直面自己内心深处的软弱和伪装。在阅读过程中,我数次产生了一种强烈的代入感,思考如果我处在那个情境下,我会如何抉择。这种互动性,让这本书的价值超越了纯粹的娱乐或信息获取,它变成了一种精神上的拷问和自我审视的契机。它提出的问题是永恒的,而它提供的解答,则是开放且充满留白的。
评分我对这本书中对于环境氛围的营造能力深感折服。作者构建的世界是如此的立体和真实,你几乎可以闻到空气中的尘土味,听到远处传来的喧嚣声。这种强大的沉浸感,很大程度上归功于作者对感官细节的精准拿捏。他似乎拥有一种将无形的情绪具象化的魔力,让抽象的概念也变得可以触摸、可以感知。每一次场景的转换,都伴随着心境的微妙变化,这种内在的统一性,让整个阅读过程充满了仪式感。而且,作者在叙事中穿插的那些看似无关紧要的文化符号和历史典故,都处理得非常巧妙,它们不是单纯的知识点堆砌,而是有机地融入了情节,为故事增添了厚重的历史感和文化底蕴。读完之后,我感觉自己不仅仅是看了一个故事,更是完成了一次深度的文化考察。
评分这本书的语言风格非常独特,它摒弃了那些华丽空洞的辞藻,转而采用了一种近乎诗意的、却又异常精确的白描手法。初读时可能会觉得节奏稍慢,但一旦适应了这种独特的韵律,就会发现其中蕴含的巨大能量。作者似乎对语言的边界进行了大胆的探索,将哲学思辨与日常对话无缝衔接,让人在会心一笑的同时,又不免陷入更深层次的沉思。更让我印象深刻的是,作者在处理人物内心冲突时所展现出的那种克制和深刻。他没有将人物脸谱化,而是赋予了他们复杂的人性,他们的光辉与阴影并存,使得角色跃然纸上,栩栩如生。这本书读起来需要静下心来,它不像那些快餐式的读物,它要求你投入时间去品味,去感受文字背后那股暗涌的激流。读完后留下的回味,是那种悠长而又绵密的,久久不能散去。
评分这本书的结构设计堪称精妙,它采用了多线索交织的叙事方式,但又始终保持着清晰的脉络,这一点非常考验作者的功力。我尤其欣赏作者在叙事时所展现出的那种近乎数学般的逻辑性,即使信息量巨大,读者也绝不会感到迷失。相反,每一个看似零散的片段,最终都会在关键时刻汇聚成一个宏大而有力的主题。这种对整体掌控的自信,贯穿了全书。此外,作者对时间概念的处理也极其高明,时而拉伸,时而压缩,有效地调动了读者的情绪张力。比如在描述高潮部分时,时间仿佛被凝固了一般,每一个动作都被无限放大,让人屏住呼吸;而在回顾历史时,时间又如白驹过隙,带着一种宿命般的苍凉感。这种对时间这把尺子的灵活运用,是这本书最引人入胜的特点之一。
评分Creativity of a cinematographer is always the key, regardless of where new technology stands. In-camera special effects such as miniaturization actually appear more natural, though time consuming, are much more cost efficient.
