I didn't expect to see the scene of Romeo and Juliet dying for love in the film and still cry, I thought I was used to it, I thought I would not be moved by Shakespeare, a love story that has been repeated countless times in my mind, but sad. The mood was unexpectedly overturned again.
I believe many people know this film, not because of its classicness, but because of "Life is Beautiful", "Saving Private Ryan" and these excellent films lost the Oscars, or because of their crazy love for Shakespeare . I don't want to argue whether it deserves the best Oscar, but at least in my mind it can be called a classic of film history. I am too partial to these classic romantic movies, so maybe all my humble opinions are based on current emotions and not rational discussions. .
The Shakespeare-style dialogue in the whole film is used just right, without a trace of rigid and rigid embarrassment. The film's use of theater, the combination of film and theater, the transformation of characters' identities, and the setting of the roles of nurses and queens are all very delicate. Many people say that the plot is too old-fashioned. One is a writer who is exhausted and has encountered a bottleneck in writing. Writing is his lifelong pursuit; In order to pursue true love, the two began a Romeo and Juliet-style escape and struggle against the world. But, I want to say, how can this be called cliché? You must know which of the classic love works in the future did not start with Shakespeare, but Romeo and Juliet. It is clear that this film is the most original, direct and true moving.
Every look is deeply indulgent, every hug is seventy miles, every conversation wants to give you all the flowers in my arms, every kiss seems to be overwhelmed by love, every joy is The complete release of the soul. I love you, for your eyes, your mouth, your apple breasts, your whole being, your soul, all your ugliness and pride.
When I was in high school, I read "Romeo and Juliet", but I felt that the Shakespeare-style narration was too literary and too deliberate. Every day I held "It is the east, and Juliet is the sun." and joked with my friends around me. When I read Shakespeare again now, I will feel more of the direct and fiery emotions behind the dramatic text, and I will imagine every set romantic scene. I prefer to understand it this way - I am so poor that all the beautiful words and stories I have met can't describe the ten thousandth of my love for you, all the fascinating poetry and philosophy can be used to explain our love . Instead of simply generalizing it with the pursuit of dramatic effect. In fact, now, where can you meet someone who is willing to write a sonnet for you, even if it is a serious love letter for you?
A word that I like very much recently-Yuyong, this word is clumsy, cute, and even a little overwhelmed, it really expresses all the recklessness in love.
The love and inspiration of artists have always coexisted. Although "Shakespeare in Love" is largely the screenwriter's ingenious idea and self-persuasion, I always yearn for such a picturesque and fearless love. I always feel that the artist is obsessed with love first, then jumps out of the mundane, and finally uses words to express the love. Telling a story to others is the most romantic thing in the world. Whether it is joy or sorrow, that precious emotion is worthy of being preserved forever. This kind of love is selfish, and it seems that it is unclear whether it is for self or simply liking it, and it will be reviled and rejected by the current ethics. People have gradually lost their tolerance and empathy for love and art, and their rejection of mavericks has always been deeper and deeper. Any behavior that goes against the so-called "normal" is intolerable.
Writing here, I feel that my expression is a bit pale and lacking in temperament. Sure enough, the difference between words is too great. Let's end with Viola's first expression of yearning for love in the film! "I will have poetry in my life, and adventure. And love. Love above all. Not the artful postures of love, but love that overthrows life. Unbiddable, ungovernable, like a riot in the heart, and nothing to be done, come ruin or rapture. Love as there has never been in a play. "Only in the end, Shakespeare rewrote the last sentence with fiery love-Actually, Love as there has already been in a play, and you are the heroine.
