It’s been a long time since I watched a movie so contentedly. Recently, I always watched some semi-chic movies, insisted on watching them, and then wanted to fall asleep all day.
Let me talk about the advantages of the film first (in fact, I did not find the disadvantages). The picture and composition are really beautiful, especially the opening, the Hamburg after the bombing, the macro aerial photography... it's almost...
The picture and composition are really pleasing to the eye.
Come to the details in the movie, and the performance
When Rachel got off the train, she first saw the same couple kissing passionately
Looking at the lovers with a grin, they walked to their husbands and greeted them with greetings. They thought they were going to kiss each other too, but only gave them a hug and kissed their cheeks. What a clever detail, avoiding the clichéd plot that the lover would kiss after a long absence, without losing sight, without making the plot dull and tasteless, a little bit of care, so that the audience's goodwill overflowed.
In another detail, the hostess asked her girlfriend for help. Regarding Rupert's "cleanliness", the shrewd girlfriend teased her and asked, "Do you have any secrets?" Hostess, what? My girlfriend, something has changed. Hostess, oh, I made a new hairstyle. My girlfriend, that's not right... Hmm... I really want to have others. The hostess calmly thought about it, and said, it's Christmas. I have always liked Christmas. I picked up coffee and peeked at my girlfriends. Girlfriend, really? I can’t bear it, Christmas without children by my side.. We know that the heroine’s child died in the war. Wave after wave by the generals of my girlfriends, it is very interesting, and I can feel the tension and stimulation of the liar. Fortunately, my girlfriend still let her go. Maybe it was because my girlfriend didn't want to be embarrassed. Maybe it was because my girlfriend was just unintentionally molesting and didn't think about it. But the effect of these dialogue details, the audience really enjoyed it. It makes me very uncomfortable.
The performance, not to mention the crying scenes of the heroine, the hero, and the little girl, is really emotional, and naturally, there is no feeling that the actors can't squeeze the tears like in other movies. Here are some small cute details:
It's a little drama, staring at the old man, ignoring the heroine, without a line, humorous and cute, 6666...
I'm afraid that this kind of theme will be as hypocritical and contrived like similar movies, and the lines and thoughts are second, but this movie does not have it, how rare it is. The performance of some contradictions is clean and neat, there is no unnecessary awkward chat lines to superfluously superfluous, it is simply great, not deliberately to highlight the sharp contradictions in the background of this era, but to use the background as the background to tell the story, but to make the background Become real, and people will not reject this background (I don’t know why the Green Book score is so high, maybe many people accept the deliberate display, but I accept it can’t), just like Blade Runner, the background It is always the background. The author tells the story itself, not to show off that he has constructed such a sci-fi world. The background is only used to serve the story. This is called calmness! If you change to another author, you may be off topic by showing off your future technology in the movie. After all, what many people think is that we have built a vision of a future world. Is it true that what I want to show is not future technology but just a plot story?
The movie seems flat and soothing, but several disputes are very turbulent and refreshing. What is impressive is that, first, the painting on the wall between the heroine and Rupert, the portrait of the head of state was hanging before! Rupert kept throwing us out, throwing us out, you have long wanted it, very intense and enjoyable dialogue, comfortable! In place! The other is that the heroine's derailment was exposed by her husband. While dancing at the prom, while chatting about the topic, the performance was in place. Can you feel the heroine's self-confidence in this environment and gaffe at the prom? Or do you force yourself not to collapse? It turned out that the heroine broke out, and the hero was speechless and wonderful.
Let’s talk about some extra points. The values of the characters make people comfortable. Everyone is very mature and sensible. When I watched the movie, I thought to myself, Louise left Rupert and his daughter to avoid them being sent to a camp. How could it be tolerated and how could it end up being lost when Rupert returned home from home? At least one person should die in a duel between two people, right? But...no. Everyone is sensible. Louis also protects the little girl. When she was frightened, he did not hate her because she was the daughter of an enemy or a traitor. Everyone is indistinct, mature and sensible, and there is no second grade, which is great.
Finally, Louis said that he was not alienating her because he blamed Rachel. He just saw her, smelled her, heard her, and wanted to feel that his lost child couldn't bear the pain, so that he inadvertently alienated her. Rachel. All misunderstandings disappear, Rachel picks up the goodwill of her husband, happy ending.
A beautiful movie, a movie worthy of careful appreciation and taste. After watching it, it makes people feel refreshed. There are fewer and fewer movies like this. Please cherish it.
