The title comes from the lyrics of Chen Li's "Flammable and Explosive".
Originally, my impression of Amy was that I had seen her news a few years ago, but had not heard her songs; so I knew that I won the best documentary at the Oscar a few days ago, but I didn't watch it; I didn't watch it until I saw Gao Xiaosong Amli. After going to Baidu to learn about her, I solemnly watched the documentary.
There are a few scenes in the documentary that really hurt my heart.
First, when Amy was extremely closed off and indulged in corruption, the media and the public over-consumed her, using her scandals as teatime ridicule to please the public, thinking that her sense of humor was bursting, and when the audience burst into laughter, everything on camera , is a photo of Amy's eyes, confused, struggling, and addicted in her apartment alone.
Many things, if there is no comparison, and if you don't look at them from different perspectives, what you can see is really only superficial, very smart judgments.
Second, she couldn't stand the high-pressure life, so she fled to the island to recover her body and mind. She had recovered very well, and she hoped her father would visit her. As a result, her father brought a bunch of people there, followed Amy, and continued to consume her. I didn't care about her feelings, and then she took a photo with passers-by. She had a bad attitude and was reprimanded by her father.
That scene really made me extremely worried. She, regardless of her body and mind, was about to collapse.
I don't know if her snobby family repented when she finally passed away suddenly, and did they feel that they had made many wrong decisions and that their quick success killed Amy.
The third is the narration that Amy gave before her death, her confession to her friends, hope that she can come back, and hope that her good friends will not blame her; this is the only heart-warming detail that I felt when watching the documentary;
Amy has always been loyal to her. Her friends, who really love her and care about her, are completely different from other people who are interested in their own interests. Unfortunately, she put aside these sincere friends while indulging, and instead paid for those who took advantage of her. A lot of time, energy, and even life; in the end, she confessed on the phone. Who would have thought that God did not give her a chance to change, and soon took away her young life.
Fourth, at the end of the documentary, along with the scene where the body was removed from the house, the narration of her bodyguard said that Amy had told him that if she wanted to trade her talent for being carefree on the street walk, then she will.
After listening to this retelling, I instantly burst into tears. She seems to have a lot, but nothing belongs to her.
She wants to create freely, but she is kidnapped for consumption; she
loves someone deeply, but she is led astray and practiced repeatedly;
her cherished family treats her as a commodity; she
wants to be quiet and the outside world pushes her into a corner;
her idol Tony Bennett said that life can teach you how to live, if you live long enough.
Too bad she has no chance.
Amy's high degree of purity and devotion to music particularly touched me, as well as the anxiety and humility when she sang with her idol. In interviews, she said that she was not obsessed with fame and fortune, but just wanted to concentrate on making music.
I really feel that living in this era of materialistic paparazzi madness is really an extremely bad thing for geniuses, enough to destroy the body and mind.
Although this documentary is made up of very scattered private and media videos, the only order is the introduction of time between paragraphs; there is no deliberate exaggeration, no flattery, and no targeted accusation of any one person, but It is very objective. It lays out everything in a true way. The merits and demerits are judged by the spectators themselves. There is no answer, but with a touch of sadness and a deep sense of loneliness, it quietly tells the short and brilliant life of a genius.
Ugh!
