The phenomenon of film revisiting,as a special aesthetic phenomenon in film art,refers to the process in which films visit historical materials to build up strength for their own images.It has been around for a long time,dating back to the early invention of cinema and continuing into the digital film era.So is the borrowing and resetting property of the concept of revisiting significantly different from the remakes and parodies? Does this kind of thinking about the history of access remain only at the level of nostalgia? What impact does it have on the generation and future of cinema?In order to better explain the specific connotation of revisiting,this paper firstly compares the phenomenon of revisiting with similar concepts horizontally,so as to delineate clear conceptual boundaries and to set the right body for revisiting.Secondly,the paper carefully crawls through the categories of the phenomenon of revisit,and clarifies its presentation of the invocation of thinking and the use of media value in terms of the multiple meanings of the hidden treasures type of revisit and the self-reflexive output type of mechanism type of revisit,respectively.Again,starting from the aesthetic changes caused by the phenomenon of revisiting,the paper attempts to outline the generation of the phenomenon of revisiting in contemporary cinema from the perspectives of film and reality,film and creator,and film and audience respectively.Finally,the paper returns to cinema itself and tries to look at the historical evolution of the phenomenon of film revisiting vertically through horizontal analogies with similar genres in other arts,and retraces the ontological problems and uncertain future of cinema.On the whole,this act of visiting historical relics of the past is not only a kind of remembrance and tribute to the past,but also a trigger for thinking about film as a thought experiment in the context of entangling the past with current images.More precisely,the self-reflexive implication of the phenomenon of revisiting unfolds the imagination of the film itself and its future. |
