Character evaluation
Qi Jian is a very optimistic and kind person. He never criticizes actors. He is always happy like a big brother. Moreover, he is known as "desperate three Lang", is a dedicated director. In the movie "heavenly dog", he has the courage to practice, to innovate, and to pay attention to the lens language. This is a bloody and lovely director who says "no" to mediocrity. In addition, his films show the sadness of history through his personal living state. In the film, the persistence of justice of Tiangou and the desire of village tyrants for trees are in sharp opposition, which reflects the director Qi Jian's efforts to pursue truth, goodness and beauty. This kind of documentary feature film shows the subtle changes of characters' thoughts through external conflicts, and at the same time, it pays attention to details and the natural display of daily life. At the same time, the film "dog" highlights the director's unique aesthetic style in photography and editing (Wang Xi, Sina entertainment, comprehensive review of film review).
