Actor:
Orlando Bloom, the most handsome boy in Hollywood. Whether it is the Lord of the Rings or the Pirates of the Caribbean, his handsomeness has been brought into full play. Fortunately, Aragorn is powerful enough, and Captain Jack is unusual enough, otherwise they must be very depressed to meet such a handsome male No. 2. It's a pity that being a supporting role is not the same as playing the leading role. In this "Elizabethtown", you can never feel Orlando's handsome The silly and lovely groom quickly covered his edge and turned him into a supporting role.
Kristen Dunst
didn't know she was still playing Spider-Man until I checked the documentation. In my eyes, she is the kind of second-rate actress who wants to have no looks, no temperament, and no alternative. Personally, while I really like her character in this movie, I still think she's second-rate.
Plot:
Drew is a sneaker designer who has fallen back to the starting point after eight years of struggle. When he thought that his life was over and he wanted to commit suicide, a more depressing news saved him. His father, who had been estranged for a long time because of his work, died one step ahead of him in his distant hometown - Elizabeth Array. As the only son in the family, he must rush to officiate his father's funeral immediately.
At this point, a normal person could get rid of the anguish in Drew's heart with a few words, but this was a clumsy comedy... His anguish had only just begun.
Drew was the only passenger on the plane. This kind of bizarre arrangement will probably only be seen once in a lifetime, so let's all smile reluctantly. Also the only one is our heroine Claire, who is a flight attendant. Compared with "There are so many towns in the world, there are so many cafes in the town, and he chose me" in "Casablanca", this film is really good It's a big comedy.
According to the plot needs of the comedy, our heroine fell in love with the hero at first sight. She used nonsense all the way to block all the depression of the hero into her stomach, and she couldn't confide a word. That's not much, after she left Derw on the phone before the breakup, she showed him a good way to get him completely lost in Kentucky.
Don't break out in depression, then continue to be depressed... Our male protagonist Drew, just like this, he continued his depressed journey without turning back. Relatives and friends in his hometown were very affectionate, mourning his father, praising his achievements, and arranging funerals. The only thing that made him feel awkward and lonely as an outsider. Even the father's last face seems to be smiling, only he can't get out of the depression at all.
Drew returned to the hotel desolately. He thought he could rest peacefully and let sleep help him overcome his distress. Unexpectedly, the hotel was holding a three-day celebration for a newlywed couple. There were noisy and festive young people everywhere, but Drew could only sit alone in the room and feel the loneliness. At this time, he finally took out his phone...
The old lover's indifference, his sister's anxiously telling that his mother had begun to fall into a madness, and it was all bad news... At this time, the energetic and nonsense flight attendant Claire flashed again. appeared. The two spent all night on the phone. (It's no wonder the film critics complained that the plot was protracted. Anyway, this was the first time I was moved after watching the film for an hour. Everything before made me feel boring and ridiculous.) In today's society where communication is highly developed, perhaps , a super long phone call is something that everyone has eaten, and the taste is probably different, it may be spicy and exciting like hot hot hot, it may be sweet and moving like ice cream, it may be refreshing and bitter like green tea, But I believe that lying on the quilt or standing in the dark and gently exchanging moods and stories with another voice, such memories will be like a wind chime, occasionally remembered, clear and distant.
The two chatted all night and it was not enough. They made an appointment to watch the sunrise together. When all the audience thought that there would be a vulgar plot of flash marriage, the screenwriter showed his extraordinary wisdom again. Can't tell, and finally went their separate ways. Only then did I realize what a high-level comedy is. When we laugh at the people in the film, we must not let the piggyback laugh at ourselves.
What follows is a protracted and cumbersome narrative. DREW slowly integrates into relatives and friends, and finally and Claire ML, but fails to keep her, everything is paving the way for the final climax.
The final climax is the farewell ceremony. All the characters appear in sequence. The mother's affectionate confession can be regarded as a highlight of the film: the grief of losing a loved one is always one's own, and it cannot be shared or even understood by others. Friendship expressed sympathy, but that sympathy seemed to be inquiring into the pain of the wounded. Probably, only you can comfort yourself. Derw's cousin brought his own band to complete their first and possibly last performance, flames, heavy rain, free birds, a wonderful farewell ceremony, and many people said goodbye to their inner demons and won newborn.
The next part is my favorite part, I don't want to call it the end, I think it's more like a beginning, a new beginning of life.
Drew took the super map that Claire gave him and his father's ashes back on the road. Along the way, under the guidance of Claire and music, he slowly walked out of his own world and began to face an America he didn't know. Beautiful scenery, blues music, Elvis Presley, Martin Luther King, Jr. and I have a dream... Traveling with music history, Drew finally knows why his dad loves this place and what to do next .
Find your own little red riding hood in a huge market and let's smile for the freshman one last time.
Film review:
In fact, the story is very simple and can be summed up in a few idioms: Misfortunes do not come singly, grief is inexplicable, and misfortunes bring blessings, great enlightenment. I like him just because of that atlas, someone's atlas.
Mixed with photos, sticky notes, smeared colorful atlases, old songs and a real America, I have a new impulse to draw the same map for myself, to record those realities that touched me Of course, there is some music, some pictures, and some dreams in China. Life is not like this. Under the guidance of music, stories, and dreams, we spread the ashes of our predecessors and move on.
