For the legendary film, make two notes.
When I was sitting at the film academy, watching the legendary film version of "Life of a Rose" but couldn't help falling asleep, I finally completely accepted "Actually, I don't like biopics at all, especially a woman. biopic” reality. This is a very frustrating thing for me, so frustrating that I can't help but feel sad while listening to Lisa Ono.
In fact, in retrospect, I have probably never heard a few of Edith Piaf's songs, and I also listened to the covers of some of the classic songs. Lisa Ono's "Life in the Rose" was a great love for a long time, and it was only later that I learned that the original singer was Edith. Marion's performance was indeed worthy of a statuette, and the last long shot was very tear-jerking. It's just that this movie is really hard for me to like.
I very much reject this kind of plot where a woman suffers to the end, and all unfortunate things are spread by one person. This is a very scary thing in my opinion. If you blindly magnify the suffering, or in other words, if all the language of the camera focuses on the suffering, it will be very tiring and hypocritical.
So I like epic novels for this reason: although Tian Sophie also has a lot of hardships, she has always been alive in the book. Of course, I don't know what the TV series will be like, and I don't really look forward to it.
Edith's character is actually the kind I like very much, paranoid and fanatical, like a wild rose in full bloom. So much so that at the end of the movie, I would have the unsympathetic thought of "actually this woman deserves it". But I do think so. The so-called self-inflicted can't live, probably nothing more than that.
And I also suddenly discovered that the thinking of my single-celled creature probably only likes the most primitive and simple narrative and editing. This kind of splicing that disrupts time, although it has a lot of functions such as highlighting contrast and contrast, but for me, it is often pulled out from the surging emotions, and the emotions are difficult to carry out.
Among the biopics I've seen, my favorite is "Motorcycle Diary". If it counts as a biopic.
