Life is like a play

In fact, I finished reading the handwritten notes the year before last: I have bought the disc of "Life of the Rose" for several years, and finally turned it out and finally realized that Edith Piaf's life is so dramatic. Abandoned by her mother since she was a child, she spent a few years with her grandmother, who ran a brothel. Later, her father took her to the circus. She sang on the street when she was very young. She gave birth to a daughter at the age of seventeen. Two years later, her daughter died of meningitis. At the age of 20, she was discovered by nightclub owner Louis Leplée and became popular. Leplée was murdered the following year. The murderer was still a street gang she knew, so she was also involved in the incident. Later, she met Raymond Rosso, who cultivated her hard, and he became popular for more than 20 years. Her life favorite is the world boxing champion, married woman, and French Marcel Cerdan. He died in a plane crash on the way from Paris to New York to meet her. This incident dealt a major blow to her, and she had been involved in several car accidents, and since then she has become dependent on drugs and alcohol. She has been married twice. The first time she married a French singer who was older than her, the witness was Marlene Dietrich. One year before her death, she married a singer who was twenty years younger than her, and soon divorced again. I got liver cancer when I was in my forties, and even when my body collapsed, I wrote a lot of songs-one of them is very, very famous: Non, je ne regrette rien-to pay off the debt.

She passed away at the age of 48, and when she was buried, there were many people in Paris. I have been to her cemetery in Father Lachaise’s Cemetery. There is a picture of her on the tombstone with the words: Gentil papillon, va lui dire que je l'aime (Dear butterfly, please fly and tell him I love him ). I rarely listen to her songs. In the early years, my friend Richard was shocked by my ignorance of French chanson, and specially carved two discs for me, including several of her songs-she is the undoubted French chanson. First person.

Piaf lived for a short time with the concentration of others for a few lifetimes, and could not finish it for more than two hours, but this movie is still a good attempt. Marion Cotillard's award was not for nothing. It played a street-grown, vulgar, passionate, and unrestrained Piaf. After reading it, you probably won't think Piaf is a likable character, but you can deeply realize that music is her life, and she shines in her songs. The film was shot in several parallel timelines. If you don’t know her life, I’m afraid it will look a little messy (I went to the wiki to scan her life first), but all the important points in her life are shot very well. Moving: The first time I sang on the street, the first time I officially came to the stage, the heart-piercing pain when I lost my lover, and the last time I came on stage, I sang loudly and announced: I have no regrets or regrets! Each song is perfectly integrated with the plot. What makes me a little regretful is that she in the movie is a bit too vulgar, I don't know if she is really like this, but watching her video, the typhoon is very elegant. Her heart is actually very poetic, and the lyrics of many songs are written by herself.

By the way, the subtitles were translated by Mike. No wonder I think the quality of the subtitles is quite high while watching it-except for some small mistakes in the spoken language, they are generally very good, especially the lyrics are well translated.
