To put it jokingly, it is the story of three upstart children (Tiancha and Fanning's family backgrounds have been explained, one is a small town rich man, and the other is a new nobleman who tried his best to prove his cultural taste after the counterattack; Selena, look The awkward "American French court style" curtains in her house and the description of her sister...)
The paragraph-style story seems to be deliberately "going" to the sense of cinema, even like deliberately letting you know that the director is standing next to him and shouting "action" and "actor moves"; and then the ending of "a lover becomes a family" is very casual It ended (Selena's appearance under the bridge hole almost popped out of the screen), I felt that the old man was saying to the audience, "That's it, it's almost done, walk around, go back to each house and find each other's mother"
At the same time, although the setting of each character is quite typical and dramatic, because the lines are really natural, they have a sense of substitution, and it feels like they can find the shadow in life.
The three young people actually have their own cuteness. Sweet Tea is a bit young Werther, born literary and romantic (the one who knows the golden age best in the movie), he is used to seeing things in the "upper cultural elite circle", so he feels hypocritical, empty, and has nothing to do, and wants to look for authenticity and authenticity; Fan Ning is a country girl with no culture, but she is naive and curious about everything, and she is not stupid enough to have no judgment; Selena is a relatively positive character, independent, confident, artistic and rational, but she always feels a little bit. Thin, not touching Well, the goddess doesn't exist?)
The "escort" lady at the bar is actually a charming person. To Tiancha, she is like a smart, mature and intimate elder sister, and it also reflects the image of his mother in the past. Become the "Queen of Upper East Side Taste"...
Woody Allen's most common mid-life crisis intellectual elite has been downplayed as a supporting role for young people. Jude Law is the closest character to the previous character. Here, he is just a funny wife and slave who worries about gain and loss, without giving more charm.
Overall, it's not so haunting and addicting, but a play that can make you smile.
