never stepped into "Youth", and now I stand on the tail of "Youth"-Youth films seem to have always been my favorite movie genre. After all, who doesn’t like watching the young boys and girls who are beginning to love each other, with curiosity and disdain for everything, exploring the world and exploring each other (...)?
The screenwriters in the past also followed the rules, and the plot was nothing more than the simple crushes and tears in the school. As the audience’s preferences become more diverse, a variety of atypical youth films have emerged one after another: from the heavy spring break, flesh and blood, bad behavior, to the dystopian hunger game, the divergent, and the moving maze. . Of course, there is also the fault in the fortune (from the same author John Green as the original "Paper Town"), contrary to the normal state of youth movies, love and talk, the male protagonist, unexpectedly died.
...I feel like it was once a piece of pure land, Hollywood youth films, and now they are forced to change their style by life...
So, when I brushed the trailers of the various versions of Paperweight over and over again, I think this should be a Hollywood youth movie that I haven't seen for a long time! The protagonist Quentin had a crush on neighbor Margo since she was a child, she was sexy and crazy. Margo is dating the most handsome boy in school, and the sister group is also full of blondes, big breasts and long legs. They drove the red convertible to school. They were cool kids that everyone envied. Isn't the ending easy to guess? Q and Margo will definitely be together. Just like the prince and Cinderella, but the gender is reversed.
But I'm still too naive. It's not that simple. The final ending made me think this youth film deserves five stars, because it is not just an ordinary story about the pursuit of love. Not the princess and the frog, nor the Cinderella and the prince. What the protagonist and heroine want to pursue is not so much love as their "nature". Just like Margo said: "You have to get lost before you find yourself." Even if it is Q who embarks on the road to find Margo, what he is looking for is actually the self when he is with Margo.
Unexpectedly, there is anyone more suitable to play Margo than Cara Delevingne. Who else deserves the innate madness and beauty? Cara won this role, which undoubtedly made a good start for her acting career (I really have to give up modeling ah><). Even Nat said, “I’m afraid I’m the only person in the world who has never heard of Cara Delevingne. But she walked in on the day of the audition, and I immediately felt that this girl should be Margo! Even though I didn’t know Cara at the time. "
Nat herself. sky. Every movie he starred in can surprise me in the most gentle way...Even if he plays the thin little ruffian in "Palo Alto", his eyes are the stars and the sea. Nat's path is getting smoother and smoother (the upcoming "Intern", with Anne Hathaway, Robert De Niro), I hope that he will be popular, but at the same time I don't want too many people to like him... It's a contradiction. ...
Oh and the ending song of Paperweight is Nat Wolff's own song...
Anyway, it's really wonderful. Greatly exceeded expectations. Hope it can be released in China too! [But I hope you don’t fall in love with Nat Wolff! Just love cara
