chiaroscuro 

Why must all the movies have the same somber drained-of-color [palette] with the same heavy chiaroscuro lighting?

daguerreotype

"daguerreotype"

and folky daydreaming about the meaning of America all [gelled] into a [frostbitten] daguerreotype of disillusionment and godlessness. 銀版照相法

bricolage

collage

The impression of artiness is increased by Mr. Lee's use of [collages] of still shots at various points; he even turns one sex scene into a series of stills that is funny in ways he surely did not intend.

anamorphic

tableaux 

could have accomplished much more if LaBute were not so determined to unfold his yarn as a series of stilted [theatrical] tableaux.

It is always hard to select the most outrageous scene in any Buñuel film; our candidate in Viridiana is the devastating Last Supper tableau consisting of beggars, thieves, and degenerates.

But its central image--a scandalous [tableau] re-creating the Last Supper--displeased the Spanish censors,

Kevin Thompson's vivid production design and Sherman's gift for framing comically [vile] tableaux [guarantee] that Office Killer is never less than visually [arresting].

Presented as a tableaux of seven sections in black and white, with a final montage of Rublev's painted icons in color,

diorama

Far from Hollywood, a [diorama] of desperation and loaner implants. 西洋鏡,透視畫館

pentimento

... A tree will show through a woman's dress. A child makes way for a dog. A boat is no loner on an open sea. That is called pentimento. Because the painter repented, changed his mind.【美】原筆畫之再現



。美學主義者

(a)esthete

Garrel is not just an artless [aesthete], he is unexpectedly and intensely romantic—imagining and realizing a character who can die for love. 

He is simply too much of an [esthete]. He loves Mozart, cooking, and books as much as he loves—well, temptation of the sort introduced by Sue Lloyd.

virtuoso 

cognoscente 

dilettante

connoisseur

Jonathan Pryce and, in her last role, the late Alexis Smith pop up throughout reps a connoi[sseur's] delight.

maven

Movie [mavens] have a veritable field to plow in the Quentin Tarantino screenplay. 

Special-effects maven Douglas Trumbull directs, Michael Cimino was one of the screenwriters, and Peter "PDQ Bach" Schickele wrote the musical score.



。調色盤

palette 

Shooting in the style of a sober documentary with a [desaturated] [palette], Truffaut [modulates] the growth of his heroine's obsession so carefully and with such sympathy.

Shot in Spain but set in a banal Anywhere rendered in strikingly [desaturated] tones, this study of the deterioration of a disturbed insomniac is too peculiar and unsensationalistic for mass consumption. 

The [palette] is [desaturated] to a nauseous gray-green, and most interiors are [rigged] with a single malevolent light source. 

After a big rain, the ground [soil] is [saturated]. Usually something porous is saturated with some sort of fluid.

pastel

a color having a soft, subdued shade

Rene Clement's film is shot in [sunny] pastels and a travelog style that works as an eerie contrast to Tom's scheme. 

which set Jane Austen's Emma among the [pastels] of modern teenagerhood,

with dazzling beach scenes that look like Technicolor and interiors in [soothing] pastels. 

The art department then gave them their breathtaking colors by using pastel [chalks] on top of them.

Principal pleasures, then, [reside] in the film's striking surfaces, which are defined by a coolly [pastel], color [palette], lush settings, beautiful people and a Sonic Youth score that is [hallmarked] by periodic intense electronic sounds.

There are a lot of fun satirical opportunities in this cheery, [pastel]-colored world that gets spattered in blood from time to time,

The location is the [quaint] town of St. Tropez, with its mellow, [pastel]-colored houses against the blue of the Mediterranean Sea.

You know, I've never made anything with my hands before. It's for her pastels.

After successfully [transforming] his laundrette into a vision of resplendent pastel [suds] and providing a [bright] spot in his otherwise [squalid] London neighborhood, Omar seems to have a bright future in Nasser's organization.



alabaster

a perfect alabaster [form], still taking blows from the sculptor's [chisel]. 雪花石膏

easel

Did tou look at the new painting on my easel? What do you think? 畫架
