Brooklyn, a relatively backward urban area in New York, USA, is populated by immigrants of various races from all over the world. In the 1950s, Alice, a girl from a small town in Ireland, left her hometown alone to go to Brooklyn on the other side of the ocean, and became one of many Irish immigrants to work. In a foreign country, the pain of homesickness at the beginning, because of meeting a romantic and caring Italian guy, slowly separated, fell in love, and staged a love story starring him in a bustling city. However, the story took a turn when her sister suddenly passed away. Alice returned to the empty home where only her mother lived, facing a lonely town, an elderly and frail mother, and the admiration of a wealthy squire. Pursuit, she began to waver, hesitating to leave or to stay the question. The highlight at the end of the story, as dramatic as Darcy's aunt comes over early in the morning to spoil the story in Pride and Prejudice, is a snobby old lady from a small town who tells Ellie. The fact that Si has been married in the United States makes Alice want to understand that her hometown is still the original hometown. Most of the people here are not looking down, and there are always some people who will gossip and gossip about some fur. This is the criticism of small cities. At last she said: "I forgot. I forgot what this town used to be."
Someone on the barrage said that the movie could also be changed to "go north to go north". The title of the film is "Brooklyn," and it's clear that the place name could be used anywhere. Big cities have many unknowns and novelties. In big cities, although you are alone, you are very free. You can go wherever you want and do whatever you want. In small cities, although you can be by your parents’ side Take care of them, but the complex network of human relationships in small cities makes it difficult for you to act freely. You can't get married late, you can't have children, and so on. The film is nothing more than a story about an immigrant from a small city to a big city. There are also many similar TV series on the same theme in mainland China, but this is just a retro-styled film. It selects an inconspicuous little character and tells a story that is heard all over the world. Because of its delicate portrayal and The real description is touching.
The character settings of the characters in the play are mostly real, and they do not pursue the aesthetic trend of the current movie. The heroine Alice has a slightly fat body. She is the kind of ordinary girl who can only feel beautiful after looking at it a lot. Not only is her sister beautiful, she is also a kind and selfless person. She entrusted her dream to her sister, left alone to take care of her mother, and lived a daily life. Because of the needs of the development of the story, fate is too thin for her, and this is destined to be regrettable beauty. The Italian guy (forgot his name) is a plumbing worker. His height is 170. He is shorter than the heroine wearing high-heeled shoes. Joey in "Friends"), has the romance of the Italians, but does not have the fascination of the typical Italians, very sweet. What is more touching in the play is not the tender words he said in a low voice, but the first time he was waiting foolishly at the door of Alice's night school. The boy standing at the door looked a little overwhelmed and his body was a little stiff , a bit clumsy, but that scene felt intimate. (At this time, a barrage floated up, "Isn't this a picture of a couple who often abuses dogs downstairs in our dormitory?" That's true.) Later, at the end of the film, Alice's return to Brooklyn is also a waiting scene. Alice stood across the road in front of his house, standing gracefully with the magnificent Brooklyn Bridge in the background, and she was waiting with a determined and calm expression. For the effect of watching the film, the supporting roles in the film added a lot of highlights and laughs to the film. For example, a group of frivolous but beautiful roommates who love gossip in the same dormitory, the little fart who loves to tell the truth among the Italian boys, the very charming and caring supervisor with big red lips, and of course my favorite male second, little The town is tall, rich and handsome, and the male DG of "about time".
It is indeed an extremely delicate film. There are no overly conflicting and hurried plot twists, but just the changes of the years, which record the slow growth, changes, experiences and choices of an ordinary woman in daily life. Because it is delicate and real, it has resonance. I can't help but think of the choices I made at the intersection of life in the graduation season, written in the article "This Peace of Mind is My Hometown" that I just posted, the same confusion, the same choice. All the homesickness in the world are similar, and so are all the acquaintances and love. I hope that in a foreign country, you can also have a love worth waiting for, and a place that makes you feel at ease.
