Before the attack on Guardians of the Galaxy 2 in early May, the North American schedule in late April was a bit quiet. Last week’s box office rankings were even more embarrassing, with animated films occupying the top three, and "Beauty and the Beast" was still firmly in the top 2 position around the release and refused to give up. The crime comedy "The Three Old Gunmen" starring three old drama bones and "Ghost in the Shell" played by the widow sister ranks fourth and fifth respectively. This has to be sighed. The box office seems to be getting more and more. Younger.
The movie to be introduced today was also drawn on the first week of April 7th, but Ken had not seen it in the top ten box office rankings. However, in the half-price show on Tuesday a few days ago, there were almost no seats. The film is starring "Captain America: Chris Evans", black actress: Octavia Spencer helps out, directed by Mark Webb, director of the film "500 Days with Summer", Tom Flynn screenwriter. The script was also included in the blacklist of Hollywood scripts in 2014 (referring to the legacy of the script that was not filmed that year).
This belated "Genius Girl" is now waiting for the perfect crew equipment. McKenna Grace, who plays the 7-year-old genius girl, was born in 2006 and debuted at the age of 6. On the Ellen Show a few days ago, she praised the team for their excellent character and kept expressing her admiration for Ellen. Her eloquence is not so good. She also revealed that she is privately addicted to horror films, and her follow-up works will also involve many horror themes.
Once again knocked down by the "Handsome Guy & Loli" combination, I still remember the last time I was fascinated by such a combination, which turned countless people into "Aisha Aina" diehard fans. That is the famous Japanese comic adaptation of the film "White Rabbit Candy". The strange "father-daughter" combination inside, the 6-year-old Rin was adopted by his nephew, Daji, and the two have embarked on a "happy and romantic" life journey. Their first encounter
Their troubles
Their company
Although this new North American film "Genius Girl" focuses on whether genius children mean deprived childhood and even the theme of life, the relationship between the characters in the film is still only centered on the uncle played by the "American Team": Frank, With his niece: Mary's "father-daughter" relationship.
(This time "Captain America" is "submissive" ~) They are intimate
They also quarrel
(In the movie, the US team was defeated by this little girl of Nosy~) They forgive each other
(How does it feel to sit on Captain America with Erlang's legs crossed?) Uncles and children’s "difficulty in going to school" problem In these two movies, whether it is 6-year-old Rin or 7-year-old Mary, they call themselves The guardians of, all call their names directly: Daji or Frank. The relationship between the two is more like a friend or an elder brother. However, the guardian’s greatest responsibility is to take on the life of a minor, especially not to lose on the “starting line”. Compared to the Japanese elementary school enrollment that caused Daji's headache, Frank was worried about the precocious Mary, who always sat on pins and needles in ordinary elementary schools, yelling at the principal or beating classmates from time to time.
(The head teacher broke her heart for her) From the first day of school, Mary was constantly called to ask her parents, and then she took her home directly. But Uncle Frank insisted that Mary stay in the public elementary school, make friends with her peers, participate in more outdoor activities, play as much as possible, and have her own childhood life. Not like his sister, shortly after Mary was born, she went to suicide in depression. Even if he is a mathematician with a long history, his life is full of depression and misfortune. Such things cannot happen to Mary again.
To show the other side of a genius girl and encounter this kind of story involving high-minded merchants, the movie will surely make the character do something that ordinary people feel amazed by, in order to show the character's "genius side". In "Girl Genius", the little girl Mary is only 7 years old, and the movie does not take a lot of time to show how she was enlightened and how she learns quickly. Instead, it uses a few brief plot points to show that 7-year-old Mary has "knowing astronomy from the top, and geography from the bottom". And uncle Frank has given everything to him. For Mary, at this age, learning is no longer a goal that needs her to work hard, but a childhood with ordinary children is the most important challenge for her.
People always have unfinished books, unfinished homework, and unfinished academic problems. And when we see 7-year-old Mary playing with her uncle at the beach and singing K with her neighbors at home, we all feel from the bottom of our hearts that this is much better than her studying while sitting in front of the computer and frowning.
In the film, when Mary introduced her love cat at school, she said this line: "Fred has only one eye, but he is a very, very smart cat, but others can't see it." And this sentence, In fact, she was talking about herself, which also made Mary's teacher pay more attention to her.
Uncle’s mothers always play the "bad guys". Remember that in "White Rabbit Candy", Daji’s mother directly said the sentence: "You don't know how much sacrifice is needed to raise a child.". In "Girl Genius", Frank's mother and Mary's grandma, after being notified by the school, forcibly intervened to fight for custody rights, hoping to turn Mary into her second daughter, and strive to wait for Mary to grow up and continue Solve the daughter's unfinished math puzzle.
Although most of us can guess the ending, this episode of grandma's fight for custody is actually used to tell another kind of extreme education case. Mary's grandmother was repeatedly questioned in court. In her childhood, Mary's mother had time for fun, did she watch sports games, did she have first love, and had close friends? All this is considered a time-wasting activity by the mother. The gifted daughter should shoulder greater responsibility and spend her entire life to solve unimaginable problems and promote the progress of science.
We don't know what Mary's mother likes and hates. Even as her mother said, she hates entertainment and only likes math. But in the end she chose to commit suicide, which shows something. When children are labeled as "genius", their way forward seems to be more like walking on thin ice. Teachers and parents have higher expectations for it. Under such high pressure, I don’t know how many lessons are drawn from inner collapse.
Story The uncle Frank played by the US team, who was also a university professor, now comes to the small town to repair the yacht in order to raise Mary, and is still having a good time. He once suspected that he could not give Mary a good childhood. After experiencing betrayal and reconciliation, the two finally returned to a normal life.
Several touching tears in the film, playing as Mary's little Lolita: McKenna Grace's eyelashes are dense and long, and it is impossible to resist crying. And "Captain America": Chris Evans unloaded the heavy responsibility of protecting the earth, and this time sparked infinite sparks with Lori, one big and one small, plus the best female Oscar matchup: Octavia · Spencer, is really eye-catching and heart-warming.
PS: Uncle Frank said a golden sentence on the way to send Mary to school on the first day, to the effect: study hard, finish school, and if it goes well, you can live by borrowing money for the rest of your life. It's really dumbfounding to hear that, in the United States, borrowing money from the government to buy a house, buying a car, or even starting a business, it is true that people live by borrowing money in the second half of their lives. There is really nothing wrong with it.
I hope that the film will have resources as soon as possible, so that both young people and parents can feast their eyes on it.
