Curse or ambition

Israel 2022-04-22 07:01:04

The conscience of the remake, not to mention that Bell's beauty and temperament are very consistent with the original, the 3D exquisite carving is enough to rebuild a fairy tale world, and even the three supporting roles of Mrs. Teapot, the Clock and the Candlestick are vivid, played by senior veteran actors. .
There is no spoiler or no spoiler in this drama. Everyone is going for the feeling of old bottled new wine. The main line of the story itself is the easiest to ignore. And what I want to say is the story itself. Beauty and the Beast, beauty and beast, the conventional interpretation is that the power of love can overcome evil and curses, the most beautiful is the human heart, love cannot judge people by their appearance, etc., etc. But maybe, from another angle, to apply the perspective of Pi's Fantasy Crusoe: the real beast is nothing but the girl's ambition. Belle, a girl living in a small village, is unwilling to live a plain life and yearns for freedom and love. Gaston, a demobilized soldier in the village, falls in love with her at first sight, but she is rarely a beauty. Belle is beautiful, strong, and brave (almost all women position themselves in this way, and it is easy to bring them in) who loves to read books and lives in the fantasy of books, which is not understood by ordinary people in the village. And everything that follows is precisely the fantasy in the girl's heart: there is a rich, noble, lonely, longing for love, and a prince imprisoned by magic, waiting for her to rescue, no matter how many times the prince has tried and failed, she is him The real princess, the real girlfriend, Mrs.Rright. And there is no threshold for this rescue, no need for a doctorate, work experience, wealth background, and any prince. The only thing I ask for is the favor of the heroine, and the ability to fall in love with him, the prince under the appearance of an orc. Of course, this process can't be too straightforward, and there is no need to wave the flag next to the side, shouting, arguing, Mrs. Teapot who flirted with the bridge, and others, to set off the heroine's restraint and the male lead's desire. I don’t love gold and silver property, only the setting of collecting books to move people’s hearts can be regarded as a kind of respect and positioning for contemporary new women.
How, does this routine look familiar? A poor scholar encounters a rich family's daughter or a fox fairy or a fairy. This routine is for poor scholars YY, and Beauty and the Beast is for girls, or it is the embodiment of girls' ambition.
The curse is just an excuse. If the village girl directly falls in love with the prince, she will inevitably feel a little greedy and vanity, and it is much more reasonable to use love to rescue the prince, or the girl hopes that love will become the shackle of her dream lover in her heart. , only you can solve it yourself. In other words, there are no witches or witches at all, it is the girl who imprisoned the prince, and her ambition is the real witchcraft. There are difficulties to be rescued, and there are no difficulties to create difficulties to be rescued. This way of hooking up is not only for heroes, but also for us beauties!
In addition, the role of Gaston is also very cute. Since Frozen, it seems that it is a bit inappropriate for a play to not target a few affordable men. The first half of this play is handsome and lively, strong and lively. Gaston, a demobilized soldier and a hot-blooded young man, admires Belle, and longs for a happy life with his wife and children. In the middle, he is turned into a villainous force who conspires to coerce Belle into a village tyrant. In the end, he goes to receive a boxed lunch, even a prodigal son. The opportunity to turn back and rub off sparks with the three coquettish sisters was not given.
The animation of Mrs. Teapot is perfect, especially the blue eyeshadows of the two bays, it couldn't be better! At the moment when the rose withers, all living beings are materialized, and there is a dead silence, and the effect is astonishingly good. Secondly, the Hollywood-style singing and dancing in the banquet, the several fierce fights with the wolves in the snowy night, and the complex and gorgeous decorations in the castle are also worth seeing.
When Mr. Clock, the housekeeper, reunited with the shrew's wife, he cried out "turn me back to the clock...please!" This is one of the few laughs in the whole movie.
Except for the little episode of Belle recovering her mother's memory, which was a little blunt, there was basically no urine point throughout the whole process.
Above, I really like the interpretation of this version.

Beauty and the Beast quotes

  • [the Beast enters the dining room and sees a dinner plate on his side. He sits down and sees another plate set up across from him. He pushes away the plate in a fit of rage]

    Beast: [roars] *Lumiere*!

    [Lumière and Cogsworth get startled]

    Lumière: [turns to Cogsworth] Be calm. Let me do the talking.

    [the Beast bursts through the door]

    Beast: You're making her dinner?

    Lumière: We thought you might appreciate the company.

    Cogsworth: Master, I just want to assure you that I had no part of this hopeless plan. Preparing her dinner, designing a gown for her, giving her a suite in the East Wing...

    Beast: You gave her a bedroom?

    Cogsworth: No, no, no! *He* gave her the bedroom.

    Lumière: Well, this is true. But, if this girl is the one who can break the spell, then maybe you can start by using dinner to charm her.

    [turns to Cogsworth, bonks]

    Lumière: Good thinking, Cogsworth.

    Cogsworth: What?

    Beast: That's the most ridiculous idea I've ever heard. Charm the prisoner.

    Lumière: But you must try, master. With every passing day, we become less human.

    Beast: She's the *daughter* of a common thief. What kind of person do you think that makes her?

    Mrs. Potts: Now you can't judge people by who their father is, now can you?

    [the Beast sighs]

  • Clothilde: [sings] I need six eggs, that's too expensive!
