What a fairy tale drama...

When I heard the news of the release of "Golden Compass" in theaters, I ran to the theater with great expectations in the evening, only to find that there was only a Chinese dubbed version, and I went to another theater without giving up, but there was the original sound, but there was only one show. , It’s been an hour and a half, I think I can stand in line to watch "Happy Feet" just to hear Nicole Kidman’s voice, but I definitely don’t accept it even in a movie that I can watch. When I arrived at Nicole Kidman, I heard a dub from a mainland that I didn't know. I was disappointed, and I bought a disc the next day, hiding at home and watching the 21-inch small Movie...The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, this is what you forced me to buy a pirated

version ... is a work based on text that is similar to . There are also three movies in the background of the story. It is in a different dimension different from our lives, where everyone has a spirit beast transformed from his own soul, which is closely related to his own life. "The Golden Compass" is the first one. It tells the story of the little girl Bellaquia who accidentally got a golden compass that can change the destiny of many people, and her own destiny has also changed drastically. She must not be involved. In the midst of wars and conspiracies, rely on the power of yourself and your friends to help others. The plot is very clichéd and simple and easy to understand.

If you replace the glittering gold compass with a ring engraved with letters, "Golden Compass" is a girl's version of "Lord of the Rings", and it is also a treasure that people will pry out unintentionally. , Is also embarking on a difficult journey supported by the heroes. If the blonde Nicole Kidman is replaced by the queen in white, this is another "The Chronicles of Narnia", which is still a kind child against the bad forces of evil, even Even the scenes can be exchanged for each other.

Although there are traces of imitation, the film has developed to more than a hundred years of history. I am afraid that no director (the writer is also the same) can say that the story of his work is unique and should be filmed. What should have been written has already appeared, the only difference is that there is a deviation in the way of expression and the meaning of the presentation. It is also a fantasy story. Although the story of "Golden Compass" is clichéd, it also has a special fairy tale atmosphere. Aside from the too much picky about the clichés of the story, it is like a warm fairy tale drama, full of CG (special effects) The lens, the beautiful and wide scene, the cute and mischievous little animals,

Compared with the absolute distinction between good and evil, in the whole movie "Golden Compass", there is almost no one with a distinct personality. Many bad guys are slapped to death by the big bear without a close-up of the face of the fierce bully, even The big BOSS, the bad woman has a mother-daughter relationship with the heroine, and it seems to have unspeakable difficulties (I believe the sequel will be more clear), plus this role is played by the beautiful and extraordinary Nicole Kidman, Who can bear to imagine that such a beautiful woman will be punished and sanctioned. It

is such a fairy tale movie. When I watch the movie, I can't help but feel immersed in the scene, and quietly feel the joy of the movie. And happiness, Bellaquia’s strong will, and the harmonious friendship between humans and animals, are like reading a young fairy tale book. The movie puts the theme on the friendship between humans and bears. This movie looks like a fairy tale. How pure and sincere the friendship between the polar bear and the little girl, especially the big white bear (not the big bear in Doraemon), with white hair, can’t help but want to raise one. The impulse of the bear in the armor. may not be a good classic movie, but it has a particularly fresh and childish fairy tale atmosphere, so that the seemingly simple and conventional storyline will not make people disgusting at all. In the process of watching the movie, I It's exciting to see, happy to see, and contented to see. Simple is beautiful.

The Golden Compass quotes

  • Lyra Belacqua: If you value your lives, come no further.

    Billy Costa: Why? We gobbled him fair and square.

    Lyra Belacqua: This ain't no game, Billy Costa. Don't you know what this gate is?

    Billy Costa: It's just the back door to your stupid college. So?

    Lyra Belacqua: There's a curse on this gate. You gyptians ought to know that. Crossing this gate is worse than touching someone's demon with your bare hands.

    Billy Costa: Why ain't nothing happen to you, then?

    Lyra Belacqua: Because we live here. We got safe passage, see? And anyway, my mother's the one who put the curse on this gate in the first place.

    Billy Costa: What mother? I heard you was an orphink and your uncle only left you here cause' nobody wanted you.

    Lyra Belacqua: Come here and say that.

  • Lyra Belacqua: [as Mrs. Coulter tries to comfort her] No! Don't you touch!

    Marisa Coulter: No one is going to hurt you. No one is ever, ever going to hurt you.

    Lyra Belacqua: They did it to Billy and those other kids. They cut their demons away. Why? Why are they doing that?

    Marisa Coulter: I know it's difficult to understand, but it's for their own good. It's just a little cut. Now, you listen. A long long time ago,some of our ancestors made a terrible mistake. They disobeyed the authority and that is what made dust came into the world. And ever since then, we've been sick with it. Been sick with dust. But there is a way out. You see, Dust doesn't settle on little children. It's later when your demon begins to settle. The Dust begins to swarm all around us,working its mixture and that is how children begin to have all sorts of nasty thoughts and unhappy feelings, but there is a way to stop it.

    Lyra Belacqua: Well, if it's so good, then why didn't you do it yourself? Why didn't you let them do it to me?

    Marisa Coulter: I'm going to tell you something. Something very important, something you don't know. Intercision isn't perfect yet, and you're not just anyone, Lyra. Your mother didn't die in an airship accident as you were told. She wasn't married to your father and even though and even though she loved you very much and she wanted to keep you. It wasn't allowed. So you were taken from her, and it wasn't until things changed... and she was free to do as she wanted... That she went to Jordan College and spoke to the Master.

    Lyra Belacqua: No! You can't be!

    [gets out of the bed and walks a few meters away from Mrs. Coulter]

    Marisa Coulter: Yes, Lyra. You're mine. And you're safe with me. You'll always be safe with me.

    Lyra Belacqua: Who's my father?

    [She took a minute to figure out, then she finally guesses who her father is]

    Lyra Belacqua: Lord Asriel? He's my father, isn't he?

    Marisa Coulter: Yes. Yes.
