The popular family growth story outlines sweet but not greasy drama

"Baby Boy" is a popular family growth story. With the cooperation of Li Bifu and Harrell, there are pleasant and charming sentences. Even if the proportion of the plot to reality should be doubted, the choice of plot and symbols in the film subtly highlights the pure color of American independent films and outlines a sweet but not greasy drama. Li Bifu not only played the role of the father who loves and hates in person, but also wrote about his state of mind in layers. Isn't it reconciliation? But what is really interesting is that when the film throws out the proposition that "when you want to forget the pain of memory in your life, it becomes an invisible part of your life", it completely reflects Li Bifu's shame and pain ──The trajectory of growth forced me to be the one I hated the most. Therefore, this film is not limited to the framework of the memories of Hollywood superstars. Instead, it has room for reflection on family education. The love and hatred between father and son can be heard, understood, reconciled and interpreted. As for rational diagnosis and treatment, does it become torture or deprivation for patients with emotional disorders? It is also a major complaint and question of the film. I can understand the moral requirements of the public for idols, just as I understand the expectations of movie fans for movies. "Baby Boy" is naturally not an unprecedented work of the year, and it is relatively cliché, but when the film has the ability to blur the boundary between reality and virtuality, can it also lead to the possibility of listening? Xiah Li Bifu left behind scandals and special effects, and came to you with a story full of humanity. The myth of the superstar dissipated immediately, leaving only the dilapidated scene of the years. After this, would you like to give him a chance? Understanding the importance of standing before judgment is the argument that this film happened to leave behind, especially in the Internet generation where communication is gradually failing and negative labels are posted casually. More layers of flavor inside and out.

    Some of the lines Lingshia LaBeouf's script should be good. It's too MV-like and petite.

    The film is essentially a semi-autobiography and self-analysis of LaBeouf, so it's hard not to consider factors outside the film, and the gossip about him that you've seen in the past has now become the basis for empathy with him. Aside from these off-site understandings, the film itself may seem a little thin. It is worth mentioning that LaBeouf did not let his strong desire to talk dominate the film, nor did he take the opportunity to attribute his character flaws and crazy behavior to his father. A scrutiny of relationships and a clear portrayal of the motives of the father figure. Among the three actors, LaBeouf's "his own" father is the most outstanding. In addition, I didn't expect that last year I was still watching Noah Yupe play the innocent and innocent little cutie, and now he has started to play smoking, drug addiction and erotic scenes... It is also a witness to his growth?
