[Movie Critics]: Searching (2018), Knowing His Daughter Through Social Medias
"Searching" is an innovative film produced by director Aneesh Chaganty. The film is inspired by Google's previous advertisment "Parisian Love". The search and entry of this ad google interface is a carrier. After a romantic Paris love story, director Aneesh Chaganty was inspired by the short film, so there is such an innovative film masterpiece that we now see as a narrative carrier with a full-screen perspective. The story of the film tells the story of a father who, after his daughter’s uncanny, has been searching for her daughter’s trail through various social media such as Facebook, youtube, and google on the Internet. The entire story of the film is based on a subjective perspective, whether it is a computer screen or a camera screen, giving the audience an immersive real texture.

The director deliberately created a number of well-known operating environments, such as window desktops, folder catalogs, video chats, browser pop-ups, etc., to visually close the distance between the protagonist and the viewer. Hence the whole film, which is composed of narrative change in the viewing experience brought by the perspective, is enough to bring the audience a very novel experience and shocking experience. For the subjective lens shooting method, a big problem that the director needs to deal with is how to convey the emotion through the cold computer screen, and then promote the story. So I have to mention a very delicate and sensitive technique, which is action memory.
The director skillfully uses the rhythm and speed of typing to show the mental state of the characters behind the screen. For young people who are familiar with social media, the emotions conveyed by the screen are not limited to their pictures, such as the right mouse button after deleting the right button. On the screen, when the message is sent, the state of the word is repeatedly deleted. The precise capture of these screen actions makes the film without too many lines, and the audience can grasp the content and emotions of the protagonist and the story. This is the movie, which is important and intelligent.

The breakthrough of the film in the shooting means reflects the transformation of the role of social network in real life and the reflection of gradual diversification. When the network tool is no longer a tool, but personal information and even privacy are transferred to the chips that can be used. The film inadvertently reminds everyone behind the story, and now social engineering in the era of big data is everywhere. In the 1960s, the famous hacker Kevin Mitnick took the social engineering approach to make the humanity loopholes under information security nowhere. After fifty years, almost everyone could complete a deception similar to him. The relationship and behavior between people has gradually become an information node. The huge network system formed by each node is enough to make people's past and present life clear. The social thinking brought by the film is equally shocking.
The whole movie seems to be telling a bizarre case of disappearance. But Neri is still returning and discussing the conflict and reconciliation between the rise of children's individualism and the traditional patriarchal system in the process of modernization. The father knows little about the other side of her daughter's heart, and her daughter's spiritual sustenance can only be vented by relying on the Internet. Entering her daughter's social account is like walking into another inner world of her daughter. From the father's point of view, family ties and companionship are not the same as understanding. Family members are not the same as knowing each other. Finding an effective balance in the conflict is the core of the film's family. Communication and mutual respect are the best way for elders and children to learn.
My Score is 7.9
