fake warmth

I really don't want to judge this movie with this inappropriate comment, but if you have watched the French film "The Elegance of the Hedgehog", you will find that this kind of fairy tale and real life is woven out of a little boy's world. The plot is not too clever, nothing new, and even a little contrived. The warmth is not forced out, forcing others to cry, but it is revealed naturally. The little boy's performance is also too hard, so that the audience's sympathy for him turns into blindly following his high emotions. This kind of emotion is strangely uncomfortable, like seeing a child screaming, crazy, and uneasy over there, but it is the shadow of an adult. All the reactions of the little boy are like adults, not as innocent, pure and lovely as children. . I have high expectations to watch this film, because there are so many big stars, thinking about the films they will play, they should not be bad. In fact, the popularity of these Oscar winners is still deep, and Tom Hanks' performance is better than his recent performance. The bad movie Love Speedo is so much better, but the law-abiding role doesn't give him much room for performance. Warm films are easy to perform, simple, unpretentious, natural, and life-like to achieve tasks, but it is not so easy to write a screenwriter of warm films: how to shape the interaction between people, a look, a word, can feel warm or disgusting and artificial .

The English name of this movie is extremely loud and incredibly close. I think this is based on the little boy's own feelings and mentality. He can't stand the mortal sound, the roar of cars, planes, and bridges, but for the sake of being with his beloved father Approaching, he overcomes his fear, and beats the tambourine all the way in the noisy New York to find the clue that his father left the key. Although I haven't read the original book, the encounter between the little boy and the dumb old man is actually a classic. The old man's silence gave the little boy a great sense of comfort. What the little boy needed was not a voice, but a silent help and company. This little boy, who lives in the fantasy and real world, is always in the world that his father has woven for him. Only his father knows how to get along with him. He is autistic (I don't know the name), and in his adventure journey, finally But got a lot of love. This movie starts with 9/11 and ends with the pain of farewell, so I don't know whether to bring the 9/11 incident to the stage. After reading many comments about 9/11, maybe there is a point to commemorate this disaster... With a little boy's huge inner trauma, to exploration, to struggle, to recovery, he can more or less represent the entire United States Society's mentality towards 911. No wonder the little boy acted like an adult (just kidding). Seeing that, the pain caused by 9/11 to the American people will calm down, but it will not disappear. After all, in such a powerful United States, someone actually slapped them in the face, except for self-esteem, except for the deaths of hundreds of rescue firefighters, except for the sudden collapse of landmark skyscrapers, and the unexpected horror of comfortable Americans, There are also the emotions that thousands of people dream of. Because it wasn't just thousands who died, the hearts of all Americans died when the building fell. What has passed is the American dream of the Americans, and what cannot be restored is the American heart of the Americans, but the film is still positive, and finally the little boy is made to stand up again, and the United States will stand up. American Warmth: Ridiculous, cliché and inspiring.

I don't want to talk about the impact of 9/11 on Americans. If you only see historical events in a movie, without considering the skill of the director, the poor screenwriter, and the excessive effort of the actors, then just watch the plane bomb the skyscrapers, and anxious people wait The tears left by relatives and friends on the building are a little more real and more historically painful. The promiscuous shooting and the begging warmth actually obliterated the historical subject matter. To be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars, other than to commemorate 9/11, I really can't see how good it is. Watching a good movie can make people sink, but watching a bad movie can make people restless, impatient, and taking advantage of the warmth caused by the little boy, in my eyes, is hypocrisy. The mute old man, who is not afraid to disturb the little boy's mother by his side, is the only two bright spots in this film. But the little boy didn't show a scene from beginning to end, just like the elasticity of the rubber band stretched to the extreme, and he was tired. Also an extreme child, the little girl in "The Elegance of the Hedgehog" is so bold and powerful, how warm and natural the world she builds, and even the illustrations appearing in the movie are beautiful. Showing warmth does not necessarily have to put the whole plot on the little boy, for example: the little boy's grandma and grandpa (according to the little boy) can also have a play; the little boy's father and mother can also interact; even the pair with the key Black couples, their separation and the tears of black wives can all bring out more drama. This is really the director's failure, the screenwriter's failure.

All in all, this is the ugliest Oscar-nominated film I've seen recently.
