Postmodern film method - airport

In keeping with the method of isolating one or two movie scenes and looking at meaningful anatomy, I would like to see that the old disaster airport can tell us a specific concept that psychologists call "companion love." . Obviously this means that I am not here to care about the characteristics of "disaster film" nonsense or big hotel type.

Allow me to explain John W. Santrock's explanation of the famous triangle love theory proposed by the famous psychologist Robert J. Sternberg:

"This relationship is marked by intimidation and commitment, but it is very low

Or lack of passion is from

 ' Partner's love ', from

Common pattern

A couple who have been married for many years. "

I am interested in the airport scene, including DO Guerrero and his wife Inez, responded by Van Heflin and Maureen Stapleton [Stapleton's performance, at least until her character has to interact with others in the whole]. The actor is absolutely outspoken - This is one of the greatest movies in the history of American cinema, with my glimpse. ]

Let us make it clear - this movie is just for entertainment, not for art. No one thinks that George Seaton has a conscious mind when guiding and adapting the script of Arthur Hayley's novel. "Well, let's see what we can say in this photo." Of course not. [Although I will point out that other types of love that psychologists often classify are countless in the film, such as the relationship between Bakersfeld and his wife, Demarest and his wife, Demarest and Gwen, and Patroni and his wife. .] However, these scenes are a good example of the powerful power of abstract ideas in the film, especially those that have been applied to the actual existence, which greatly touched our emotions.

And, if I can add, in each of these scenes, every aspect of filmmaking is the participants - performance, coaching, setting up decoration, art direction, music, basically still the camera, the minimalism of dialogue - all this all.

About setting up the decorator's work - Jack D. Moore and Mickey S. Michaels, as well as art directors Alexander Golitzen and F. Preston Ames are building sentences, the poverty of the Guerrero apartment and the desperate air of the cafes where Inez works. We first saw DO Guerrero in about thirty-five minutes, a pay phone that was originally in the hallway of the building where he lived. At first we were thinking, except who is this person, where is he? It's obviously not anywhere in the airport, most scenes happen there - although there are several shots elsewhere, all of these shots look great and are very happily presented to us - Bakersfield's home, Bakersfield's Father in the Law Club, Ballroom, Patroni House, Gwen's apartment, and one of the restaurants that are too close to the 22nd runway. I repeat it - all these other places are very attractive, so when we encounter the shocking taupe of the Guerrero apartment, our radar will rise immediately. So this dirty?

He is on the phone with the airline and confirms that the flight to Rome is still on schedule. [By the way - this is one of the few phone conversations in the movie, Seaton chose not to display as a split screen - I included a visual appendix at the end of this article to this document.] He hung up the phone and entered his apartment . There have been so many questions - is there no phone in his apartment? Where does he live? What did he do to Rome? Why is the apartment looking bad? As he walked into the bedroom and we saw the bombs on the bed, we began to understand his relationship with the bigger story and the bigger story he was involved in – especially when he was testing the bombs in the attachment case. And ominous music plays on the soundtrack. Perhaps more importantly, for this discussion, it helps us understand the importance of the lies that he tells his wife.

Next, we saw him in a mild coffee shop where his wife was involved in a blizzard. Again, the collection and art direction is sensational until the possession of more than 53 people...signed.

When they sat down to talk about his deception - we knew but didn't know her - let us feel her deeply because she obviously felt so deeply about him. We know that he plans to take a flight to Rome and detonate the bomb, but she thinks he will start a new job in Milwaukee. Through a brief, concise exposure conversation, we piece together the details of their lives. His work is like digging and demolition, apparently unable to find a job because of his temper - he constantly argues with the boss. They have fallen into bankruptcy - apparently abject poverty - and as long as it is the ring of his mother, he warned him not to do so.

Her simple, innocent belief - the love of her partner - was so sincere and true to him that she did not even ask for confirmation or proof of any new work, even if he made a heinous statement "I I can make progress on my work tomorrow's salary. "What? true? On the first day of a new job, do you need to pay in advance? Isn't this the red flag on the face of your new employer?

Let us eavesdrop on some of her comments in this conversation.

"This will not be another such goodbye job, is it?"

"This time give me a help - if your boss says that two and two are six, please agree with him."

"Don't lose your temper."

"Nothing is better than this in the past. I didn't complain... I mean what I said, good or bad."

After he walked into some hopeless pipe dreams, she said: "Stop, stop dreaming. Keep going."

"I can give the landlord another good luck story. Goodbye Dom."

He left and eventually boarded the plane; through a series of plot designs, she gradually realized what was going on, and stayed up all night in a terrible blizzard, trying to stop him from boarding. When we followed her awesome journey, we completely sympathized with her, and was touched by a incredible devil to a man, no matter how rationally estimated it would not be of any benefit to her. After Bakersfield asked her, at this point, we still don't know the details of all his regrets.

After she crossed the airport, when she watched the plane leave, she saw her shocked face pressed against the glass at the door. She would not only be stirred by her companions, but [we now realize] unconditional love. The performance work is really great!
