This film is very interesting. I watched it on CCTV6 when I was young, and there was an appointment for the best movie that year. Later, a certain issue of Crazy English magazine also published a dialogue segment. When I was doing the show last semester, my younger brothers and sisters said they had seen it. I checked the information and found that this film was introduced in 1996, and it even went to theaters in Beijing. All of a sudden, I really wanted to watch it, so I bought a DVD. When I watched it again, the only feeling was that I had grown up, and I could finally watch this kind of commercial film without any effort. It's just that Kino Reeves has already become popular because of "Matrix" at this time, and there is always a strange feeling when watching it again. The guy played by Keno Reeves is called Paul, a World War II veteran, and the story is about his struggle and choice between a marriage that exists in name and an extramarital affair that is fake but genuine. Values are absolutely correct, and it's not a noir movie, so it's worth watching. The well-organized commercial film structure can be used as a textbook, so there is nothing to say. Tell a story, this story is about a man who wants a home. Paul was an orphan, and during his military service in Vietnam, he did not forget to write letters to his daughter-in-law, who was a prostitute at home, even though his daughter-in-law never read it. When I returned to China, Paul was very sad. No one picked him up. The down-angle shot was good. Every returning soldier in the dock square was greeted and kissed. After the crowd dispersed, only Paul was left, and it was still raining. ; After returning home, the daughter-in-law didn't show any affection at all. She played with Paul very professionally and let him go to work... So Paul was very depressed. On the other hand, Victoria is a big harmonious family. The concept of "home" and "family" is strengthened everywhere in the film. Paul's final temptation and emotion were also changed under the inspiration of the Victoria family. You say, instead of guarding a daughter-in-law who doesn't love you at all, it's better to go to that small town full of Latin flavor, where there are kind mothers and grandmothers, and a humorous, affectionate and kind grandfather, and my father is a little stubborn, In fact, people are not bad, how can this orphan not be tempted? Paul's three dreams have been saying: "I want to have a home", the ruins of the orphanage, the wreckage of toys, the last time it was not a nightmare but a vision of Victoria and the child, Paul's spiritual choice is even more clear at a glance. The end of the video is even more interesting and happy ending, once again strengthening the concept of the "root" of the family, Paul also won the approval of the Victoria family, how wonderful. There are two things that are better handled by the screenwriter. One is to set up a double moral dilemma. Victoria wants to conceal the fact that she was pregnant before marriage. Paul pretends to be her husband out of good intentions but can't help it. However, under the constraints of "morality", he can't hide his own life. the fact of marriage. This classic dramatic situation can simply catch up with the sketch of the Spring Festival Gala. The second is to deliberately introduce Mexican style. In addition to meeting the needs of the audience for aesthetic curiosity, it also provides many concepts such as "family" and "ritual" to strengthen the dramatic conflict. The celebration of the grape harvest is the key turning point of the plot. At that time Confirming the love between Paul and Victoria, it also provided Victoria's father's approval of Paul and a change of heart for the relationship between the two, and also caused an important plot of the lie that was exposed after that, but outside the plot, this ceremony was the most inspirational for Paul. important weight. It is even more wonderful to light a fire in the vineyard at night. It is the most charming scene in the whole film. After many years, it is still talked about by movie fans. Under the moonlight, by the bonfire, lovers dance together, like a pair of butterflies in the vineyard. fly. There is also a bridge segment like singing a love song under the moon. The layers of such lyrical passages tepidly render emotions and push the storyline to a climax. Thinking about it now, this kind of movie should be classified as a "love literary film". Chinese audiences are quite familiar with many things, and it is easier to get recognition, so this film has a good reputation and box office in China. Except for the "Butterfly Flying" paragraph, this film is really difficult to be regarded as a classic, but it might as well become a beautiful scenery. I will always remember when Paul took the divorce agreement and rushed to the small town in the cloud, the kind of starry night running, he was heading home. Emotions push the storyline to a climax.
