It's a simple story, but it's not easy to give the Steve Jobs legend to Hollywood. The first is the foreshadowing. I have to say that the foreshadowing of this movie is quite good, interlocking, and the hints are also obvious. For example, when little Lisa was carrying a Sony Walkman at the beginning, I couldn't help but wonder, "Will his dad get him an iPod later?" The latter two had to admire themselves. The phrase "500 to 1,000 songs fit into your pocket" is obvious, it's talking about the iPod, the MP3 that was envied by others back then. This may not have much effect on the promotion of the plot, but it can be regarded as an easter egg that slowly extends, but the most connotative and the most important thing in the whole movie is indeed expressed by this "clunky and ugly Walkman". Remember what Lisa said about two versions of a song? That song is called "Now Two Sides" and it's a poor you Michelle ballad. In fact, this is a hint, what does it imply? In the third press conference, assistant Joanna mentioned the "reality distortion field". This word originally originated from Star Trek, which generally refers to the spiritual power of aliens that created the world. , used in "Jobs Biography" to refer to Jobs' aura. "From now on two sides", one side is reality, the other side is distortion, the balance between the two is the position. Jobs has indeed always appeared in a contradictory posture. As for what is distorted and how it is realistic, there are also a lot of references in the film, but the summary can still be summed up through the perspective of Lisa: Yes, it is two versions of the same song, feminine distortion, regretful reality .
The feminization of Jobs is multi-faceted. We can see a detail in Isaacson's biography, that is, Jobs' inner tolerance is very fragile and it is easy to cry. At the same time, thinking about problems is too emotional. I think this also explains why women prefer iPhones, because Jobs is thinking from a female perspective and thinking to a certain extent. This is the twist of femininity, which causes Jobs to miss opportunities and different landscapes on certain issues, such as Lisa, despite his unmatched personal charisma, way of thinking, and a more focused attitude.
Later, the relationship between Lisa and Jobs was exposed both in the movie and in the biography. The results were without exception. All kinds of evidence showed that although she was an illegitimate daughter, Lisa was the one that Jobs loved the most. Why do you love it? To a large extent, it may come from regret, regret for ex-girlfriend, regret for Lisa not fulfilling the responsibilities of her father and father."
Of course, this remorse also exists with another person, and this is Sculley. The film may have too much time related to the United States to portray the friendship between the two. In fact, before Jobs broke up with him, the relationship between the two was quite good. Even the second half of the film is slightly overdone. The two go to the restaurant of Jobs' biological father to eat salad together, which is a metaphor. But because of the sales problems of Macintosh computers, the two broke up. Jobs was still a feminine paranoid and let him hate it as a reason for resentment, but in the end, Old Joe thought about it and reconciled, also because of regret: he lost one A friend's remorse , of
course, also has remorse in the end, but it can't be changed, so be with Watts. In fact, as the founder of Apple, Watts and Jobs are friends, but there are indeed many grievances. Of course, the second generation of Apple is not a piece of garbage. At that time, the employees of the second generation project of Apple would wear a compassionate "work 50 hours a week to support the living". MAC and Lisa (computer)", it can be seen that the second generation of Apple was a highly recognized computer and the only profitable product of Apple at that time. Jobs was also full of regrets about this issue at the end, but when he made up his mind to open a new era of Apple At that time, he chose not to recognize it, for himself and for Apple's future.
To sum up, this is actually not a Steve Jobs biography revolving around his career trajectory, but a gossip around his emotional life, fused together. In the first stage of the film, the angry and arrogant Steve Jobs kept roaring "everyone, everyone", but at the end of the film, he stood a little calmly on the rooftop, facing his daughter "everyone, everyone". waiting for you", how obvious is the change in attitude?
So, this movie can be summed up in one sentence: three paragraphs, two lives
