There is nothing new in the world, "The Emperor's New Clothes"

When I watched it, I was thinking about what the familiar story of "The Emperor's New Clothes" was about.

The truth of a vain and vain emperor wearing "new clothes", in fact no clothes, was revealed by a naive child under the cover of flattery.

The film begins by asking a question: must the truth be right?

Why must the truth be told? If the truth makes everyone uncomfortable, does the truth matter that much?

If the truth is known to everyone and the emperor alone does not, is it just vanity to hide the truth?

Is the emperor's enthusiasm for clothes just because of vanity?

Couldn't it just be making the clothes themselves? What if it's your own love for clothing? What if he was originally visually impaired?

Isn't the earnestness of making new clothes worthy of respect? Isn't it pure and cute? Isn't it also worth moving?

Walking in the crowd naked and serious, you will laugh at the first second, but will you be moved by it next? Will it be infected?

Think about this emperor again, look at him one more time, do you think this short and chubby emperor is also cute? And a trace of serious stubbornness? If our country's leaders would put so much effort into the clothing industry, wouldn't it be a bad thing?

At least he did not kill innocent people indiscriminately, did not embezzle or take bribes, and did not lie to deceive the public. It was others who lied, not him. Among the people who dare not tell the truth, isn't the emperor's innocence even more valuable?

So let's develop the character "Emperor". He must be kind, but at the same time he is physically flawed, worthy of sympathy, worthy of sympathy, and at the same time in a high position, respected by many people, and no one dares to tell the truth in front of him. The point of play is no longer "speaking the truth", it is "what is behind the truth?", "what will the truth eventually bring?", it is "the truth is ultimately unavoidable".

But this story is still very funny when you think about it. This kind of warmth is based on money and class. If she is not the emperor, would anyone bother to maintain this "innocence"?

Of course, the minister itself should be sultry, but even if it is personalized and turned into true love, it still belongs to the person under the title of "emperor", isn't it?

    Every appearance of Aunt Mei will exceed the expectations of the audience. The killer is still the eyes that can speak. Every move and accent imitation have made the image of this generous and persistent local rich man cute, ridiculous and pitiful. Comedy has a large proportion, which slightly weakens the tragic feelings of the protagonist. It feels that the only purpose of the producer and Frears is to send Aunt May to the Oscar nomination circle again. In addition, the pianist played by Helberg is really bright!
