CODA--The Choice Of Family And Dreams

In terms of narration, the film is also relaxed, inspirational, and serious, but also lighthearted and witty. Ruby's parents both got venereal diseases. Ruby was forced to accompany her parents to the hospital to see a doctor. The doctor told Ruby's parents that they should not have sex within a week. Ruby's father immediately protested. Saying how can I bear it for a week, Ruby embarrassedly translated these conversations, which made me laugh. The supporting role of the music teacher in the film is also an interesting character.

The scene where he instructs the students to learn to bark to control their breath in vocal music class is also full of comedy. In short, although this is an inspirational film, it does not have the slightest bit of preaching or heavy elements, which is really rare. In family films, family affection is an inevitable element, and this film is also very touching in terms of family affection. When faced with the irreconcilable contradiction between his musical dream and his family's dependence on him, Ruby hesitated, and finally chose to give up the opportunity to go to college and stay at home to help his parents manage the fishing business. Ruby's parents knew that without Ruby's help, it would be difficult for them to live a normal life, but seeing their daughter's talent and love for music, they finally decided to support her to pursue her dream. The family drove Ruby to Berkeley Music College for interviews. When faced with gains and losses, the family unanimously chose to sacrifice their own interests to achieve the happiness of the whole family.

    In the case of a remake, I thought it was necessary to inject some different blood. Retelling the story in a specific context makes a story that has been wonderfully presented with new vitality and freshness. After all, if you just copy it completely, the audience can just watch the original work, why bother watching your imitation. Speaking of this film, the first half is the same as "The Belliers", which is somewhat disappointing. The second half gradually begins to show some differences with the former. Although the steps are not too big, it can finally create a story with its own cultural imprint from the context of its own country. Fortunately, the warm and delicate foundation in the original work has been retained. It can be regarded as a steady progress, without success. |7.0
