Meryl Hugh Grant and Simon, who starred in The Big Bang Theory, are actors I know well, so I remembered this film when I first saw the trailer more than half a year ago. The subtitle translation level of the cooked meat version I watched at station B is really not very good. Fortunately, some obvious mistakes can be heard. The film is based on a true story of a character I knew absolutely nothing about. What's interesting is that I can clearly feel the psychological changes in the process of watching the film. From the beginning, I kept making up my mind and complaining about whether Hugh Grant was really old or casual with old makeup to gradually being attracted by the superb acting skills of the protagonists. It's a very subtle transition to fully enter the plot at the end. Florence Foster Jenkins was an American soprano in the early 20th century, and even those who have only watched the trailer can tell that she is more famous for her poor singing skills. Because I don't know the life of the real people, I only comment on the plot of the film. Aunt Mei's acting skills are really superb. The image of a silly rich woman full of girly hearts has been deeply rooted in people's hearts from the beginning. At first, she laughed heartlessly because of her singing, but later she felt more sad. Although the absolute protagonist of the film is Florence Foster Jenkins, the husband played by Hugh Grant is definitely a top priority. What seemed to be just absurdly inspirational comedy tales adds a touch of ethical debate to Florence's husband, a man who wanders between two women. When I first saw Clair played by Hugh Grant switch from being a good husband who loves his wife to when he hugged a young girl and kissed him in bed, I refused, and I also subconsciously thought that this is the image of a scumbag again? After learning about Florence's illness, seeing the conflict between him and his mistress at the bar, and protecting Florence to the fullest from the beginning to the end, I still believed that his husband truly loved her. Florence knew her husband slept elsewhere, but did she know there were other women he slept with? Looking at Clair's nervousness, I don't know, but I don't believe Florence didn't realize it at all. It was probably wishful thinking. It is true that her husband loves her, but these decades of lies have become the dream world Florence lives in, which is really contradictory and... terrifying.
Florence and her husband's platonic marriage over the decades really makes me feel both admiration and sadness. Florence is already old, and the innocence and attachment to her lover are all in the state of a young girl. She's been living in a cage of self-deception for almost her entire life, and it's thanks to Clair that she really spoils her with all her might to keep this virtual dream alive. All this is due to Aunt Mei's acting skills. The eyes of the two are so contagious, and the pink bubbles in the play are getting tired of getting along on the screen. The moment when Florence finally finds out the truth in the trash can is a classic, and the final scene is so beautiful that it brought me to tears. Florence's love of music and apparently unmatched talent are tempered by the comic effect, and the film's most superficial and main story is the story of the couple and the talented little pianist, "People may say I can't sing, but no one can ever say I didn't sing." is her evaluation of her own musical path, her love of music supports her life, when she sings on stage, she What comes to mind in her ears is the sound of heaven. For her, this moment is full of life. Adorable and cute, but also very sad, in fact, her words are really willful... There are many metaphors behind the story, but I can't express it clearly, so I will write it here. The three leading actors, including many supporting actors, have outstanding acting skills. The story is arranged too slowly, and the first fifteen minutes when I was a little impatient was really confusing. The plot itself is quite special, and I personally can't completely like this story, but the soundtrack in the film is well received and the costumes are well received, and the acting skills can't be reduced.
