dream catcher in the city

It's still good, the film is gray and white, and the soundtrack is very small. Generally, the film will use the soundtrack to render the atmosphere. I didn't expect that movies with dark tones and no soundtrack also have another charm. The subject matter is quite close to reality, and it talks about the city life of a confused girl. It is very literary and not bad, except that some connection points are a bit blunt. The most touching thing is Frances running. That run was very powerful. Her steps were huge, and she ran unscrupulously on the street. Looking at her fluttering hair and firm steps, she would be pushed forward by a force in her heart. In a city like New York, it is inevitable that she will not be accepted by the city for a period of time. Friends around her have their own homes. She is the only one who runs into walls at work, dances alone in the dark, and acts as a substitute whose future is unknown. Stubbornly insisting on her dance dream, her best friend left her and her boyfriend went to Japan. Under such circumstances, the part of Frances alone has increased significantly, but the film does not exaggerate the loneliness of this urban dream chaser, but just calmly narrates, just right is a necessary factor for a good movie. In the end, Frances chose to be a choreographer. Maybe this is a compromise, but I think not all compromises mean giving up, and sometimes it is another way to continue the dream.

    So smart, so good-looking, right anywhere, good-looking everywhere.

    It is suitable for lying in bed in winter and watching, suitable for living alone, falling out with friends, unsatisfactory career, silly and happy but being watched by someone stabbed in the back. The film is very short, and although it is in black and white, it is more colorful than a color film. To sum up in one sentence, a person can live alone, and a person can be happy.

Frances Ha quotes

  • Frances: [at a French cinema] Hello. When did "Puss in Boots" start?

  • Frances: It's that thing when you're with someone, and you love them and they know it, and they love you and you know it... but it's a party... and you're both talking to other people, and you're laughing and shining... and you look across the room and catch each other's eyes... but - but not because you're possessive, or it's precisely sexual... but because... that is your person in this life. And it's funny and sad, but only because this life will end, and it's this secret world that exists right there in public, unnoticed, that no one else knows about. It's sort of like how they say that other dimensions exist all around us, but we don't have the ability to perceive them. That's - That's what I want out of a relationship. Or just life, I guess.
