The Bodyguard--The Ultimate Romantic Cliché

Myrna 2022-08-03 19:07:05

The charm of American classic love movies in the 1990s was always irresistible. It is impossible to know whether a song makes a movie or a movie makes a song. They must complement each other and achieve each other.

Based on the experience of the audience now, all the plot suspense can be guessed closely. Even so, the devoted audience can still be immersed in the sometimes nervous and sometimes sudden emotions. Whitney Houston interprets the duality of domineering stubbornness and fragility with sincerity, and the radiance of the superstar style is hard to hide. Aside from countless advantages such as the male protagonist's calmness, wit, composure, bravery, and sense of responsibility, it's just his handsome and angular face, his calm and thoughtful look, that tall, tall, sturdy, and neat man. The posture is enough to make countless female audiences fall for him, not to mention the clear and affectionate eyes.

The classic characterization model of emotionally impulsive women and rationally restrained men once again frames the entire story. The love between female stars and male bodyguards not only has the tension and excitement of walking on the edge of danger and is related to life and death, but also has the deep love of giving life to each other. Although they can't stay together for a long time, they are old-fashioned but full of tension. Many people think the film is very cliché, but I think it's so romantic and cliché that I like it.

    I don't quite understand why so many people regard it as classic... because of song?
