Warm to the left, pretending to be to the right

I have watched too many pretending, artificial, hypocritical, and sophisticated movies for a long time. I thought I had begun to become immune to things like movies, but suddenly I watched "New Year's Eve" and I was still moved by the little ones. . We have to admit that there are excellent films every year, and there are very few in recent years, not in the mainland.
Even with "inferior" star-numbered movies like "New", Hollywood does better than China. If the ideology is promoted, it will not be as explicit as "Jianguo Pseudo Industry".
Watching the movie "New", we can completely abandon the cumbersome and obscure Dai Jinhua's style, from the perspectives of anthropology, sociology, this study, and that study (there is no disrespect for Teacher Dai Jinhua, but we have been watching her recently. The book, it hurts to read...) Analyze the movie. It can be non-academic, non-obscure, without considering semiotics, without considering any metaphors, and watch a movie happily.
Alone, at night, quietly, in a dark environment, let the plot of "New" take you around the excitement before the coming of the new year, appreciate the distress in everyone’s life, and fully realize that you are unhappy and others live. It's not a good reason. Watching the stars in the play go through a series of life trivialities and finally find a solution. In reality, the self in reality can also be cultivated into a righteous fruit after experiencing all kinds of hardships, and finally embrace the beauty/male return. .
There are constant climaxes in the film, one after another, and multiple clues are intertwined, and finally converge in Times Square. After the countdown to the new year, past is the past, a new year and a new beginning, happiness-is the ultimate truth we seek.
Although Claire Morgan's speech is a bit too "reader", and a little bit more inspirational, it will not affect the general mood of the audience after all. Happy New Year is good.

    I always feel that the Americans are not as HIGH as the British guys in making this kind of face-to-face romantic comedy, but it's still quite a bit of trouble~ Xiaozha's performance is really good~

New Year's Eve quotes

  • Claire Morgan: [voice over, opening lines] Some people swear there's no beauty left in the world, no magic. Then, how do you explain the entire world coming together on one night to celebrate the hope of a new year?

  • Hailey (segment "Mother & Daughter"): I knew you gave up your own plans tonight just to be with me. I can't become your everything, mom. Please don't become a Piper's mom!

    Kim (segment "Mother & Daughter"): A what? A Piper's mom? What? You mean like Joanna?

    Hailey (segment "Mother & Daughter"): Yes. Piper's mom, she... she hides in the bushes everyday just to make sure that Piper actually goes to school. It's... it's nuts.

    Kim (segment "Mother & Daughter"): Okay. Well, come on! I'm not that bad.

    Hailey (segment "Mother & Daughter"): Mom, you've stopped trying. Okay? And you're being all clingy and mean. And it's because you don't have a man in your life. You really gotta find somebody. Look, mom, you're a hot woman. If you just, you know, lose the clogs maybe.

    Kim (segment "Mother & Daughter"): I'm sorry, but I am trying and I would like you to try just have our New Year's party.

    [Kim starts singing Happy New Year's tune]

    Hailey (segment "Mother & Daughter"): Okay, mom, no more. I'm over it. I'm over it and I'm over you.

    [Hailey goes into her room and slams the door shut]
