When watching the film formally, apart from the familiar feeling of color, the style and plot of the movie itself will not make people think of it at all, but the French flavor is still strong, especially in music.
In fact, the world in the dream is not a dream, but a world composed of graffiti painted by HELEN. HELEN connects his graffiti into a black and white city. There is a black princess like the long one in that city. The black princess discovered The real world where HELEN is, and the mirror mask that can come to the real world, so she took the mirror mask and came to the real world, and HELEN came to the world of graffiti-PS, the identity conversion of the two twists was just using HELEN in Falling asleep in the dark, had a strange dream and passed on directly.
The white queen symbolizes the seriously ill mother of HELEN in the real world, while the black queen is the mother of HELEN who is usually dissatisfied-controlling herself and not giving freedom.
The black princess is actually the dark side of HELEN's heart, the shadow side who wants to resist and escape under the long-term circus life.
Because it is a SF movie, there are some animated CG interspersed in the middle. The whole movie is still good. The character modeling, costumes, scenes and lens switching are all very good, but the ending and some details are always explained in a single pass. Slightly insufficient.
Details: When
Hannah first appeared in the opening circus, the black socks on the left foot and the white socks on the right foot were the little paper man
Hannah of Valentine herself performing in the black-and-white world. Among them, there was a mention of spiders-which has been in the drama since then. The spider representing the eyeliner of the Black Queen appears from time to time
and the wall is her graffiti
. Everyone in the city circus wears a mask, black and white, and solid color.
Therefore, the black and white world painted by Hannah is also a variety of humanized animals. And the masked people
flowing in the city air, the floating fish river is the most obvious hint of the connection between the black and white world and the real world
When Hannah was mistakenly regarded as the black princess and was brought to the white prime minister, the white prime minister quickly recognized that she was not the black princess
"oh, she is not her" and
then interspersed with a 3D plus plane stereo red animation confessing that the black princess came to the white world The Dongdong who has captured the mirror mask is very interesting
about the definition of books in the black and white world: books that are useful to you can appear, and they indicate the direction of the story. If you don’t need them, you can say something that makes the book think you don’t need them, and then throw them on the ground, and they will fly back to the library by themselves. When Hannah first entered the black and white world, she used this feature to escape from the human face. The
encyclopedia in the library (I think the translation into history may be more clear...) shows that the black and white world is the statement of Hannah's graffiti drawn with a pen. As Hannah said, I did not fully understand its meaning. …For
example, she drew a city that lost the horizon, light and shadow, front and back in the face of the spell. Shouldn't the spell be the blank notebook? The last sentence says that she put the spell under the queen's logo.
Destroying Hannah who always appears in the film looking for the shadow of the mirror mask is actually the black princess who came to the real world destroying the graffiti.
When Hannah was captured as a black princess and taken to the dark palace, the black queen knew that she was not her own daughter, but she still stubbornly used a lullaby doll to dress her as a black princess and stay by her side. Because the Black Queen actually knew that she could not find her own daughter, she had left with the mirror mask she found and was destroying the world.
The robot doll sings the slow version of the old song "COLSE TO YOU" and the song is still very good...but those dolls are really weird...
In the window of the Tiantai stage, Hannah faced the black princess in such a real way for the first time At that time, the black princess’s realistic appearance was very punk. For the first time, I felt that the heroine was actually very beautiful...
Oh, I have to say that the script was very creative, the director was awesome, and the art was awesome.
Anyway, it just happened to be my favorite movie.
