Who's that girl—Jennifer Connelly’s dream life


from the late 1980s to the mid-1990s, the entertainment journals that can circulate in my life often haunt such a group of young Western girls: Brooke Shields, Cynthia Gibb, Lee Thompson, Sophie Marshall, Alyssa Milano, Diane Lane, Phoebe Kates and Jennifer Connelly. At the time, media readers were all reserved, ashamed to use the advanced adjective "sexy", and nonsense about youth, bodybuilding and other perfunctory clichés.


I came to a 2006 horror film "Ghost Talk". I read the synopsis and the name of Jennifer Connelly was prominently printed on the credits. At this time, Jennifer Connelly is no longer the fresh girl in the old journals and movies. From the widely acclaimed "Beautiful Mind", she has returned to the audience's attention like a reborn, a brand-new Jennifer Connelly.


Although the audience still remembered the fresh appearance of 13-year-old Jennifer Connelly in the film "Once Upon a Time in America" ​​by the famous director Sergio Leone in 1984, the beautiful Jennifer Connelly once again showed her wisdom and works. The audience proved that her growth and transformation are as tortuous as life, hard and full of surprises.


In "Ghost Talk", Jennifer Connelly has a lot of exquisite and full one-man scenes. Her eyes, expressions, movements, and language simultaneously conveyed a kind of depression, thick but ethereal, concrete and abstract. It is like the fog on a rainy and cold night in winter, sometimes contradictory and sometimes clear. Reading from helplessness to her fragility, from fragility to her fear, from fear to her bravery, from bravery to her love, just like the light of the night, flickering and flickering. In the film, Jennifer Connelly said to her daughter: I love you, and you know that I will give everything for you. At the end of the film, in the elevator, the ghost of the mother again tied a beautiful ponytail for her daughter: my beautiful daughter.


The plain Jennifer Connelly is still so charming.

    I haven't read the original version, but the expressions from the story to the horror are all Japanese, and the adaptation lacks the original oriental charm.

    . . . It doesn't seem too scary. . . .
