The three best original song nominations at the 80th Oscars, tied with the records of "The Lion King" and "Dream Girl", are by no means enough to sum up all the wonderfulness of "Magic Love". Beautiful music is only one of the most outward expressions of this film, and the innocence inside is what we really love and have lost for a long time. I believe that when many people watch this movie, the corners of their mouths will always be in a rising state. Yes, to regain the long-lost warmth and touch, and to smile from the heart, is the gift that Princess Giselle and the commoner Prince Robert brought us.
About Disney's classic stories that travel through history but are still young, I believe that many older children can list a lot of them. Because these fairy tales are not just stories about coaxing children, for most of them, they represent the childhood that each of us will never return. The meaning of a fairy tale lies in all the passion and belief we have paid for it, and all the warmth and sweetness it conveys to us. There are not too many distractions in my childhood, and fairy tales mean hope and simple beauty. But when people grow up, they seem to be farther and farther away from the mood of childhood. Even telling stories to their children is often mechanical and boring, as if they are dealing with a headache. So, we began to face the reality, we were exhausted, and although it was understandable, we also lost those distant simplicity.
Fortunately, because of those old children who didn't grow up, we waited until the appearance of "Magic Love". Although Patrick Dempsey has reached the age of no confusion, and Amy Adams has traces of years in the corners of his eyes, but because the pure heart is still there, the magic in the movie can spread into our hearts, and then shine and warm. In fact, the heart has always been warm.
Giselle, the princess who is waiting for love in fairy tales, holds the most primitive idea of "marriage madness" and waits for her prince to appear. Such a wish, ordinary and pure, is also easily broken, especially with the existence of the evil queen, it is even more difficult to achieve. Even though she met the prince who was looking for love and fell on his mount accurately, the journey of chasing love could not be easy and comfortable, because even in fairy tales, it is difficult to touch happiness without experiencing hardships. The queen banished Gisele to New York, the most fancy city on earth, before the wedding, so here, Giselle was forced to learn to give up the simple perspective of seeing the world, and she had to be instilled in this concept - in fairy tales It's all deceptive.
Robert, a depressed single father in reality, brings a six-year-old daughter, and although he has a girlfriend who has been with him for five years, he cannot hide the pain he once experienced in the sea. Facing a divorced couple at work, he also learned to restrain his feelings, act and behave carefully, and not believe in those beautiful loves or simple happiness. He is a bit rigid and only sends gifts like e-cards to his girlfriend. Although he knows more about dating than Giselle, the pressure of reality prevents him from learning the purity of Giselle. In his opinion, Gisele is a little neurotic, and may even be a patient who ran out of a mental hospital. But it was this neurotic "patient" who became the beautiful woman he finally embraced.
Although real life teaches us the meaning of stress, it can be difficult to remain calm, let alone simple. But what is rare is that even if Giselle is soaked by the heavy rain, even if she is regarded as an alien by people, she still does not lose her honesty and loves the life in front of her persistently. If the Evil Queen represents the turbulent social environment that is ambushed everywhere, and Robert symbolizes all living beings who cannot help but work hard, then Giselle is the childhood dream and clear heart that we have never discarded, but have hidden too much. Gisele's dresses made of curtain fabrics are as beautiful as the latest season's big-name clothes sold in store windows. Just like the original simple ideals we adhere to, they are more dazzling than complicated realistic desires and pursuits. .
The animation world does not only exist on the screen or in storybooks, it is a pure land in our inner world, which hides the strength and character that can transcend time. There, the prince meets the princess, justice overcomes evil, and beauty replaces haze, which is what we strive to pursue in the struggle of life. When Gisele and Robert's lovers finally get married, when Edward and Nancy swear in the fairy tale world, we will find that it is our life and love, and it is not illusory at all.
When Robert and Giselle danced hand in hand to the last song of "So Close" in the movie, they couldn't help but shed tears. Although I know that there will be a Hollywood ending in the end, I am still enchanted by the deep attachment in the eyes of the two. It was Giselle who convinced Robert of the existence of fairy tales, and it was Robert who protected the back garden in Giselle's heart. . Patrick Dempsey and Amy Adams, although they are already "older youth", but their interpretation of this intergenerational love is very exciting.
Having seen too many tragedies of bitterness and hatred, and tasted many heartless comedies, it seems that the experience of sadness or joy has become a little numb. However, "Magic Love" seems to be a gift from heaven, hitting people's hearts with the most primitive beauty. It is not heavy, but it is not heavy, it is not frivolous, light and clear. Filled with the residual warmth of classic fairy tales, our hearts are inadvertently washed and refreshed by the power of this love. I want to come to the "moisturizing and silent" in the poem, which is such a realm.
