First statement! This article is not a serious film review, it is more like me recording my connection with this film, and I hope audiences who see objective evaluations should be careful.
One Is Glad to Be of Service is the title song of April Rain's self-titled album released in 2014. The sampling part comes from the source of this line "The Machine Butler". The song honors the late actor, comedian Robin Williams. Music is emotional, and ambient music such as post-rock is especially emotional, so this song chose "The Machine Butler" to commemorate Robin Williams.
I have watched this film many times in different scenes and at different times, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is my favorite sci-fi movie. And One Is Glad to Be of Service connected me with this film, and the first sample corresponds to Andrew's first dialogue with Bo Xia after his return after transforming his appearance. At that time, Andrew was a man with self-awareness and a human being at the same time. A robot in appearance, but he has not yet become a human being. She revealed to Bo Xia her doubts about people and human nature. The young Bo Xia actually had secret feelings for Andrew, but he did not dare to face his feelings for a robot. It is true that Andrew is humorous, gentle, and understanding, but he is still a robot, and he still talks about One Is Glad to Be of Service, so the film uses the mouth of Poxia to convey to the audience what is a human being "take chances, make mistakes" "It's irrational conversation? it's human conversation" Humans make mistakes and are irrational. This is not only said to Andrew, but also to Bo Xia. She understands that she loves this robot, but she understands her better Love is a robot. In the next development of the story, Bo Xia's rationality prevailed, so she chose the man whose jaw could pierce the Titanic as her marriage partner, while Andrew made an irrational choice that violated his own computing system and Transforming himself into a more real human means he will be able to perceive more, but also feel pain more realistically. This actually represents two sides of human beings, two choices, rational and irrational. With a clever reversal, the film confuses Andrew's relationship with people, and directly points out that Andrew has acquired a human identity.
The second paragraph of the sample selected the conversation between Andrew and Bo Xia in the church. Andrew sophistryly gave her the teachings that Bo Xia had given him before, and directly pointed out Bo Xia's heart and made her accept his heart. To this day, I still think that Robin Williams's lines in this segment are rare classic love lines in film history, which also depends on his excellent lines.
Portia said "is't not fair"
Andrew said "love isn't fair."
Not long after I watched this film for the second time, I met the person I love. Since that day, I have been realizing that love is unfair. It is for both parties. In this context , even if this film is not perfect, and can only be said to be excellent, but I still give a high evaluation, because I, like music and love, are irrational, so I believe these things, she also Same. We will rewatch this movie together one day, just like before.
“I love you Portia loved you the very first moment i saw you”
