The 91st Oscars came to an end. My personal favorite "Favorite" only won the best actress. On the one hand, the competition was quite strong. For example, photography lost to "Rome". Although Lubezki "ran off", But Caron's own shooting is not slack in the degree of completion, whether it is a fixed-camera long lens or a highly saturated and delicate feeling presented in black and white, it perfectly presents the temperament of "Rome". On the other hand, for example, the editing lost to "Bohemian Rhapsody" and the soundtrack costume lost to "Black Panther". Well, I can only hehe. Although Oscar accompanies all kinds of running, he still likes it. Before I saw it, on the one hand, it was the gimmick of "Gong Dou", and on the other hand, it was the attraction of "courtship homosexual". After all, the male protagonist Nicholas Holt played the same-sex movie "Single Man" that I like very much. He is in it. The characters, both in appearance and performance, are quite amazing.
There are still a lot of cool lines like this in the whole film, which shows that Lance Moss's personal interest has not been reduced, even if the subject matter is not Lans Moss. As far as the same sex is concerned, the setting of the main heroine is not to emphasize the identity of lesbians, but to help express the "replacement" theme he often mentions, such as seventeen rabbits replacing seventeen dead children, Rachel •Sarah, played by Vichy, replaces her late husband George (this part of the film does not mention that George is absent, but the logical line can be in line with the theme of the film), the new darling, Abigail, played by Sister Stone, replaces Abandoned Sara. Finally, the dissolving lens of the rabbit, the queen, and the darling further strengthens the distortion of this alternative relationship, just like the super wide-angle fisheye lens throughout the article distorts characters and space, and the chaotic editing of dialogue and scenes distorts time. This kind of author The highly uniform style of sex also further strengthens the theme that the film wants to express, and it is very enjoyable. This alternative relationship at the textual level is split into two story lines. Story A is the pure palace fighting part of women, and Story B is the political part of men. The political part is also heavily interspersed in the film, through Sara and Ah. From Bigail’s point of view, the Whig party and the Tory party were fighting in secret. In the end, Abigail, who accompanied the story A, replaced Sara, and the Tory party in Story B also replaced the Whig party as the new leader. Since it is a dual story line, one is pure politics, and the protagonist Sarah is also a strong woman with personal political ambitions. It is also she who connects the two lines of politics and palace fighting. For example, Sarah threatened the queen and said it was me. I can do anything for my country. The first sentence asked by my husband Marlborough is how is my Great Britain. Even if they lose out in the end, Sarah proudly tells Abigail that they are not playing. The same game. Lance Moss' treatment of history is obviously full of dramatic processing, such as categorizing political disagreements in general as the main war and anti-war factions, and the queen was taken by the emperor to make the princes completely divorced from politics itself, palace battles and politics. The struggle is simplified, even in some trifles. The director gave up the complexity of the text in order to make the multi-layered expression clearer, so as to better serve the dramatic conflict. This is a pity. In fact, Queen Anne’s political wisdom is far greater than that. She not only merged the Scottish Parliament of England, but also gained a favorable position in the battle for the Spanish throne. After defeating France in one fell swoop, she played balanced diplomacy and also controlled the Tory Whig party. It is also a balancing tactic. After obtaining diplomatic advantages through the Whig Party, the Tory Party is used to develop the economy. What is more interesting is that Queen Anne promulgated the world's first intellectual property law-the Queen Anne Copyright Law. The Industrial Revolution and the British Empire’s Rapid development. The struggle for the darling can also be regarded as Queen Anne’s wisdom in employing people. During the war, Earl Marlborough, who reused the Whig Party, and Harry, who used the Tory Party for economic development in the later part of the war, was very safe at every step. Political films are expressive, that is, they are shown in parallel narratives of darlings' struggles and political games. The arc of Queen Anne's character is also the last to stand at the pinnacle of power, which is achieved by enjoying unfettered "feelings." From this perspective, Olivia Coleman also interprets Queen Anne very well, and she deserves the Oscar actress. As for Sara, played by Rachel Vichy, she is a model of secret participation in politics and the most powerful role in the film. Decisive, courageous, persistent, independent, domineering, etc., can be used to describe a strong woman. On her. This is also the place where "Favorite" is independent of the domestically produced Gongdou latitude. This film has real female characters participating in politics, and Sara's success or failure also determines whether the Whig Party can continue to govern and express in feminism. The above is also in line with the current ideology. In the end Sarah failed. Lance Moss also attributed the defeat of the Whig Party to the struggle of the darlings, sacrificing political complexity and strengthening the expression of feminism. This is also a bright spot in the film that I think is a pity. It is also Multi-layered ideogram.
The most appropriate subjects for similar girlfriends participating in politics in China should be the Empress Dowager Deng Sui of the Eastern Han Dynasty and her best friend Ban Zhao. The overbearing Deng Sui and the wise and generous Ban Zhao cooperated to make the Eastern Han Dynasty prosperous during the "decade of floods and droughts". . As a person who rarely watches dramas, I don't know if there are any domestic dramas filming the stories of the two of them. However, there are still many points that can be unearthed as the themes of movies, especially female themes. Finally, there is Abigail played by Emma Stone, a scheming but short-sighted character. This kind of political white paper was scribbled by the bureaucrats and nobles on the way to the upper ranks, and was finally used as an emotional substitute. At the same time as success, another level of tragedy was revealed. It is also the only tragic place in Beloved. This kind of tragedy is a tragedy of the bottom and a tragedy of women in the old age. Lance Moss uses this multi-layered expression to show the tragic aspects of politics, feminism and their opposition, and to realize the unity of opposites. There is no doubt that "Beloved", as a Gongdou theme work, has made the same type of uniqueness and innovation. I also look forward to more creators who can bring more outstanding costume works in the future.
