Ferris wheel, reincarnation from ground to sky

Ferris wheel, wonder wheel, a carriage rises from the ground, as if it can fly into the sky and look at distant places, but when it reaches the top, it will fall again, say goodbye to the happiness of high places, return to the ground, and return to real life, but It keeps spinning, nurturing and shattering dreams one by one. Never stop.

The first time I wrote a film review for Woody's movie, it wasn't to prove that I was a big fan of him, or to show off my words, but I really felt a lot during the movie watching, like a soda bottle that was shaking all the time. , looking for an opportunity to release.

Maybe just like the analogy I gave to the Ferris wheel, Woody pinned his meaning on this amusement toy that did not play a role in the whole film. A dramatic story. Five heartbroken people were sent to the sky by the Ferris wheel and returned to the ground. It's just a small reincarnation. It doesn't represent the values ​​of Americans in the 1950s, nor does it represent Coney Island. The joys and sorrows of people cannot even represent the happiness and destruction of the people at the bottom. However, it also represents something. It gives love and marriage, madness and rationality, plus fantasy and reality. The best definition is the wonder wheel, the Ferris wheel.

Aside from the ingenious conception and intense dramatic conflict, what impresses me the most in the whole film is that Mickey and Carolina are in the car in the rain, their dialogue and eyes, Mickey is surprised by the world he has never seen before, Karolina. Lorena was intoxicated by Mickey's gentle and passionate eyes, the world outside was raining, and the space inside the car was quiet and rippling with small thoughts. Thanks to Woody, I recorded the best look of love.

    It is a very serious drama, and it is a continuation of the "karma" series of stories that old Woody has been addicted to since the 1980s. A woman who is dissatisfied with life expects love to save herself from the quagmire, but Woody Allen does not believe this illusory expectation: under the neon lights of Coney Island, "love" is greasy and illusory, and it is ridiculously powerless. People are all fetching water from bamboo baskets. Woody Allen's movies have so much to say

    Old Woody's Colorology. Everyone is playing with fire, the difference is just visible or invisible.
