"My Sassy Girl" Pull Notes
Since college, I have especially liked to listen to the teacher pull films, and therefore have a strong interest in movies.
Teachers often tell us: If film critics are equivalent to foodies, then we are cooks.
After graduation, I occasionally read some movie-related books and some online courses.
The following notes are a summary of the study during this time.
This time, I mainly divided the film into several paragraphs from the whole point of view to discuss the plot structure and the methods used in the form for a simple analysis. I hope that the students who have watched it can learn from each other, discuss and supplement
A
.1 empty mirror
2. The male protagonist stands by the tree and recalls
B
3 Photography - A Childhood Narrative
(Denpao, our male protagonist, Qiangniu, has appeared. This very quick and capable account of our protagonist's growth experience. This usage is often used in genre films, such as the opening of "Dream Hunting")
4 Street stalls
Drink with friends, friends laugh at him. Her mother called and explained that he was going to her aunt's house (reflects the character and the relationship with the people around him. Explain "cause")
5 Stations
The male protagonist is waiting for the bus at the station and meets the drunk female protagonist.
6 in the car
The male protagonist looked at the female protagonist for a monologue in his heart.
The hostess yelled at the person next to him to give up his seat to the old man.
The female protagonist vomited on the passenger, and the male protagonist was forced to make a clearance for the female protagonist
(This scene is a scene where the two of them got to know each other. The director used the way of a drama film to film this scene. impression.)
7. Station platform
The man took her out of the car
(Seeing this in the film, I can't help but admire how talented the director is. The character who plays Morning Bull carried the girl down. His thoughts are fighting against his own traditional concepts. The concept won a temporary victory. He put the girl on the seat, got up and left. The audience will understand his approach. Who would make such a big sacrifice for a stranger who has nothing to do with him? But the director reserved In the girl's shot, the audience is particularly worried about the girl's safety and expects that Morning Bull can save her. The guardrail is a symbolic thing. When the morning bull crossed the guardrail, the audience was disappointed, but unexpectedly, the morning bull bought a ticket to go back Here is the inner arc of Morning Bull's heart. His kindness overcomes his existing concepts. He decides to save this girl)
8 Street
Boy finds hotel to house girl on roadside
9 Inside the hotel
Caught by the police, sent to the detention center
10 Boys Home
The boy was beaten by his mother for not going home at night
At this point, the narrative task of this paragraph has been completed, and the entire "causal relationship" has been explained. Let's reorganize.
The boy received a call to go to his aunt's house - the boy met the girl - the girl was arrogant and domineering in the car and the boy was forced to rescue the girl - the boy was carrying the girl to find a hotel - the boy was beaten by his mother because of this.
To put it simply, his mother asked him to go to his aunt's house, but he was beaten by his mother because the girl went back. A new "expectation" is formed as the paragraph is completed - what will happen next
11 After explaining that I was beaten by my mother, I naturally transitioned to the introduction of my family and growth process (shaping character characteristics)
C
12. The girl calls him and asks him to meet (raise strong anticipation: what will happen)
The girl took him to the cafe to explain what happened (audience: why go to the cafe)
13. Restaurant
girl messing around at the table next to you
The girl is drunk (in the last clip, the girl is addicted to alcohol and arrogant, this scene explains the reason for the girl's alcoholism, and at the same time explains that she is not good at drinking. Functional clip, because if you don't explain in this scene, for the girl to set things right, there will be no end motives for changing attitudes of boys towards girls)
11. Hotels
The boy carried the girl into the hotel again. Girls vomit, boys take care. The boy's inner monologue wants to take care of her (the audience begins to enter his inner world. The image of the morning bull in the B story has changed)
The girl wakes up and takes a shower (narrated from the perspective of Morning Glory, the relationship between the two escalates)
This clip description explains the motivation of the girl in the previous scene and explains the developmental results of the previous scene. There has been an upgrade in the character's inner story line (B-story). and undertake the next paragraph
D
12. Classroom
The boy is sleepy in class, the girl walks into the classroom and sits beside her ()
The girl proposes to let the teacher dismiss the get out of class and pull the boy out to play. Boys don't want to go ()
The teacher walks into the classroom to let the boy go ()
(The director's handling of this scene constantly aroused the audience's "expectation", why did she come and why did she come?, how can she not go? What did the girl tell the teacher? It is very interesting to tell the girl to pull the boy out to play)
13. Playground
two people playing in the playground
Show the script written by the girl to the boy and tell him she wants to be a screenwriter (new clue)
14. Tells the story of a "heroine"
15. Adaptation of "Showers"
16. Lakeside
After listening to this story boy heart. . . The girl walks to the lake and says let the boy jump (will he jump)
girl pushes boy into water
This paragraph is the two people trying to be together, and the audience also hopes that they will collide with the spark of love. But "expectations were frustrated". We feel lost, but still try to create more "expectation" for this film in our hearts
E
17.
Restaurant
The boy was eating with his friends, he saw a girl go up to talk to someone, but it was a girl unexpectedly (the relationship broke down again)
The boy escaped and came back to receive a call from the girl and hung up on her
18. On the train
The boy decided to take revenge on her, pretending to drink too much and wanting the girl to pick him up, but he was stolen and sent to the detention center (sympathy for the boy)
19. Detention Centers
Boys are bullied by prisoners (more sympathy for boys, how can girls do this)
The girl came to pick him up (felt misunderstood her)
(Remembering Xing Ye's "King of Comedy" Cecilia Cheung left Stephen Chow, we all thought she was such a mean and ruthless person, and then the camera switched to Cecilia Cheung crying in the taxi. We immediately blamed ourselves and felt that we had misunderstood her. A Characters We love her because she makes us feel like we "owe" her)
The girl started to beat him up (how can this be)
Then take him to eat delicious food (the relationship between the two is back on good terms)
In the previous paragraph, the two tried to be together but were hindered. This paragraph is intended to solve the contradiction between the two.
F
20. Home
The boy looked at the yellow picture at home and received a letter from the girl: she is going to have a birthday (new task)
The boy is thinking about what gift to give her
21. Playground
The two turned into the playground at night and were captured by a deserter
(I feel that this dialogue scene is very important, and there is no nonsense in every sentence. There is a lot of information, so I put the content of their dialogue here)
Girl plays with flashlight to scare boy
Woman: Is this a real gun?
Soldier: Do you want to see it?
female: no
Soldier: Are you just friends?
Soldier: why are you here?
Male: just want to play
soldiers do not believe
Bing: How can you trust such a person
Woman: I only believe in myself
Soldier begins to tell his own story
The deserter tries to shoot himself but fails (the rhythm begins to ease)
The two were murmuring and joking about him
Deserter: Even you look down on me!
girl: then don't be stupid
deserter: why am i a fool
girl: she won't come back even if you do
Deserter: But she'll be sad when I die
girl: no pain goes away faster than you think
Deserter: Have you experienced it?
Girl: Hmm (implying that she no longer suffers from the previous experience because of the appearance of Morning Bull)
The deserter began to change his mind, let the girl go, and hijacked the morning bull (did the girl really escape)
The two try to escape
The two were found by soldiers and surrounded. Deserter kidnapped morning bull, rescued by girl
(The conflict between the two people is resolved, and the relationship is sublimated)
By this stage, the narrative tasks in the first half of the film (the relationship between the two people is confirmed) have been completely solved, and no new tasks have appeared. That's why the film is divided into "up and down"
Summary of the first half: Let's put aside the "plot" and look at the essence of the second half:
A Opening - B The two met - C The relationship was confirmed - D The relationship broke down - E The relationship was repaired - F The relationship was sublimated
So the first half is a typical "love movie" routine, which is divided and closed. The subject matter is cheesy, but the director is very talented. It was really interesting to shoot. from reality and higher than reality
the second half
G

28. Girls Home

Morning Bull hears the girl's mother disapprove outside the door (a new contradiction emerges)
This paragraph is the first paragraph of the "second half". The main role is to explain that the two are beautiful when they are together, but they were hindered by the girl's family.
H
29. Study room
The girl calls Morning Glory and asks him to send flowers (a new task appears)

The idea sneaks in, the uncle guard blocks (sets up obstacles)
30. Theater

If the last paragraph was an appetizer, this one is a zoom! It's so romantic, it makes me, a straight man, want to fall in love. At this time, the relationship between the two has reached its peak. It's all tricks
I

The conflict between the two and the girl's family intensified in this period

35. Western Restaurant

The girl is searching on the street, and the morning cow is eating at the roadside stall
The girl is looking at the station, the morning bull sits on the elevator
(Two times of searching, the director kept triggering the audience's "expectation", and the "unrestricted narrative" made the audience anxious as a bystander, and wanted to rush in and pull her to say that he was there. You can compare them shouting on the mountain that scene, think about what character we saw and heard as an audience)
girl looking for petunia
38. Operations Room (Parallel Narrative)
girl rushes into operations room
Morning Bull imitates the dangerous look when he first meets a girl (flat type contrasts the scene where the two met)
girl looking for petunia
the two meet
36. Downstairs of the girl's house
The boy tries to kiss the girl, but rings the doorbell and the girl goes home
In this section, they broke through the psychological barriers in the two people's hearts, but in the end the director implicitly expressed that it is still impossible for the two to be together
K
37. The two agreed to write a letter
38. On the Hill
Bring the bull to the other side of the mountain and shout
A confession from a girl, but Morning Bull cannot hear it.
39. Under the tree
They buried the letter under the tree and agreed to read each other's letter two years later (aroused expectations: will they come after two years, what is written in the letter, what will happen when they meet again)
40. Station farewell
They say goodbye at the station for the last time, and let the morning bull get on the bus first (arouses anticipation: will he go? They end like this)
The morning bull jumps out of the car, the girl gets in the car (our "expectations" are met when they decide to find each other, and then miss. Expectations are thwarted. At the same time complete the paragraph function: both love each other deeply, but still To face the helplessness of being separated)
This paragraph is that the two are greasy and crooked, tangled and tangled. Let the audience follow suit.
Character's inner line: The two broke up, and it was extremely painful. Looking forward to meeting
L
41. Morning Glory changed after the breakup (repetition. The presence of repetitive elements in the film establishes and fulfills our expectations of form.)
(1) Learned to play tennis
(2) Learn to swim
(3) Learned kendo
(4) Wrote their story and got the favor of the movie
42. Under the tree
On the appointed day, Morning Glory dug up the time capsule to read the girl's letter. (expect to be satisfied)
told his story. (reveal why it happened before, to make the storyline more obvious)
The girl didn't come (expected frustration)
The boy goes under the tree every day (causing anticipation)
M
43. Under the tree
An old man walked under the tree, and the girl appeared (the last clip of the boy's narrative and the sense of time, when we see this, we must all regard the old man as a morning bull. When the girl appears, we are even more puzzled. So the film attracts us more urgently. want to know the next plot)
As the conversation deepened, we learned why the girl didn't come, and the grandfather also told us what happened this year.
It turned out that the tree died, and the morning bull planted the same one again! (I was moved to death when I saw this. It was unexpected.)
girl read letter
(The girl in this scene changed her stance, changed. A decision was made. The narrative mission of this scene was completed)
In fact, in the last paragraph, the girl jumped into the car to imply that she had made a decision, and this paragraph is still here to amuse the audience. . . A whole plot is actually in the service of "emotions". . Can't see it anyway
44. So the girl is looking for a morning bull.
Three repetitions are used here (parallel comparison), the girl calls Morning Bull but is not in the service area (the previous call will be answered every time), and the background music is "Canon" played by the girl at that time (this song expresses life and death Follow, elusive love. Use it here, wonderful!) While waiting for the bus, the girl made the dangerous action when she met the morning bull, which appeared three times in the film. The fantasy morning glory will appear at this time, and we have been brought into it by the film and become "girls". At the same time, we also strongly look forward to the emergence of Morning Bull. In the end, he still didn't come, and the audience's expectations were frustrated. But how can this monkey director let us down? It was even arranged that Morning Bull missed the car and was in the same frame as the girl. At this time, our mood has fallen to the bottom. . . We no longer expect a possibility between them
N
47. Cafe (scene repeat)
A superimposed to the aunt. The girl appeared and recounted her experiences over the years. When we all thought the story was coming to an end, Morning Bull turned up, we were pleasantly surprised and puzzled. The girl looked up and pushed the mirror, this shot was amazing. Our feelings are magnified with the camera. This is accompanied by "Canon", but this time it is an octave higher and the rhythm is brighter.
And then they actually got back together in this ending.
You may not believe it, I met a man from the future. (Corresponding to when she was asked why the script is all time travel, she said I believe I will meet someone from the future)
Finally, let's analyze the structure of the lower part:
G The two little sweet girls are more opposed to the family-H The relationship between the two has reached its peak-I The family firmly opposes (external factors lead to the breakup)-J finds that the other party is better-K The heart is entangled but still breaks up-L The boy changes himself and waits for the girl-M The girl is sure to fall in love with morning glory-N two people together
In fact, when I carefully analyzed this paragraph, I found that there are a lot of unreasonable and Mary Sue things. I've been thinking about what this girl is thinking. Maybe I don't understand women, hahahaha.
In fact, we can think about how we met the protagonist, how we, as the audience, initially disliked this girl and then fell in love with her, and how to tell a touching love story.
Seeing this, does it feel like "love" is full of routines. Don't be deceived by the director's routine in the future. There is no such thing as love in a "romance movie" in reality. Because they are all artistically processed!
But after watching this film, there are still many waves in my heart. Love may be like this, stumbling, coincidence, meeting the person you can't imagine, falling in love with the person you thought you wouldn't fall in love with. They were forced to separate for various reasons. So please cherish the person in front of you, there is always a reason for God to let you meet her. What happened to you wasn't a movie, it was a long, long documentary.
