the end of the world!
Stranded life and art!
"Purple Drunk Golden Fan", the English name is Velvet Goldmine. Zizuijinfan is a description of gorgeous rock and roll. It describes the intensity of color and also describes people's worship of this gorgeousness. The English name of gorgeous rock is Glam Rock or Glitter Rock, a branch of hard rock. Because it has only existed for 10 years, it is cumbersome to define. In a general sense, it is known for its ambiguous costumes, exaggerated dramatic performances, and decadent and lazy music styles, which are like a flash in the pan.
Gorgeous rock appeared in the late 1960s and early 1970s when avant-garde rock (Prog Rock) and psychedelic rock (Psychedelic Rock) prevailed. In the UK, some bands who were tired of excessively lengthy songs began to choose to return and regain the 1950s. In the late and early 1960s, certain music forms were added to rock music, focusing on stage performances and wearing gorgeous clothes, which gave rise to extremely dramatic and gorgeous rock music.
"Glam" comes from the word "glamour", which refers to magic and charm. The most authentic representatives are the early music chameleon David Bowie and the fragrant nostalgic "Roxy Music". Although some singers and bands under the banner of gorgeous rock and roll appeared in the United States, such as "Alice Cooper" (Alice Cooper) and "The Kiss", etc., their demonized style is similar to that of contemporary ones. The British gentleman was very different, deviating from the decadent and beautiful gorgeous rock and roll category, and became the pioneer of heavy metal in the United States.
The film is based on the legends of two alternative heroes Igge Pop and David Bowie in the history of rock and roll. It describes a story about the "British Dream", and even at the beginning and end, it does not forget to use the emerald of OSCAR WILD to imply the genius and nobleness of BRAIN. BRAIN grew up and became a gay rock star. He was cast aside by fans because he pretended to be shot and killed at a rock concert and tried to capture the world's attention again. Ten years later, he became another rock star. The film began a search with the title of a reporter's tracking of "The Missing BRAIN".
This is a movie full of concerts and gorgeous costumes. If you have a big screen at home, it would be great. At the beginning of the film, subtitles are printed: although what you are about to see is a work of fiction.it should nevertheless be played at maximum volume Performed at high volume.) For gorgeous rock, because gorgeous is just a form after all. Our final attention is still on the content of the song. In the movie, it says, meaning is not in things but in between them (probably meaning: meaning is not in words but in words).
I have nothing to say about the whole film process. In addition to watching the movie itself as if I was witnessing my past youthful days, I only had some discomfort at the end of the movie-BRAIN SLADE changed after ten years and became another public figure. Chameleon in the entertainment industry. Regarding youth and ideals, those are no longer important, the most important, as his good friend KURT said, he's got what he wants. KURT is BRAIN’s former collaborator and his Lovers. KURT said a few passages to reporters more deeply:
real artists built beautiful things but put nothing realistic in, ok look, we set up to change the world, and then just changed ourselves?.
translated is: a true artist and create beautiful things, but do not put them into their lives, right? Listen, we used to want to change the world together, but then it was us that changed.
a friend of mine, can not dissapear , some years back.i forget where we were..we were on a trip..but he said to me, Kurt, life is like a image.
translated is: a friend of mine, First disappeared, and returned after a few years. I forgot where we were...we were traveling. But he told me, KURT, life is like a dream.
The achievements of the times are geniuses, but meteors will fall in the night sky. What exactly does a musical genius want? When he gets used to the stage, he can't get used to being a civilian, and everything that hinders him will be left behind. BRAIN's ex-wife said that he has changed, but how can one demand that someone who is pursuing his dream maintain his original intention for the rest of his life? He has stars and always pursues the moon.
He fell and got up again. However, many years ago, what he had was a dream. After many years, the dream came and went in his mouth, like a firework, blooming at the moment when he opened his mouth, he turned around and suddenly disappeared.
After being abandoned by BRAIN, KURT was lost and walked on the road in the dark. At this time, BRAIN sang:
sometimes i quite used to see it twist,taste the sweet and dry. these years,love ruin consume,my fri.like their wine .
The translated meaning is probably: Sometimes I am used to seeing it (love) twisted, tasting sweetness and dryness. Over the years, love has destroyed my lover and my friend. Just like their wine.
In the previous scene, some rock youths talked about their thoughts about the concert and the future as they did when they were pursuing their dreams:
i don't believe there is much to speak up in the future...
sinking fast. ..
big brother baby all the way...
situation to the subjects....
exceptions to times.. The
translation is probably: I don’t think there is much to be said in the future...
sinking quickly...
Big brother has been following You...
the scene corresponding to the theme...
the difference from the era...
Looking at the scene of them drinking and chatting in the dark. Think of a group of people who are also confused in our time. No matter how brilliant the dream is, treat it like cooking, add salt, MSG, oil, and various seasonings to help it cook into a beautiful and delicious dish, and then take it to "others" to taste.
Our past has been followed by many people.
Zizuijin fans, those days when they put their dreams in a precarious state, all the way to desire.
American director Todd Hayne brought the glimmering Glam Rock Scene from the British music scene in the early 1970s on the big screen and shot it into the movie Velvet Goldmine; quote Todd said: "I think the 70s is a unique era, it’s not Because of its charm, but its unprecedented extreme extreme spirit."
Everyone is eager for the movie Velvet Goldmine. The reason is based on the fact that Trainspotting actor Ewan McGregor has a starring role. Or is the original soundtrack of the movie too star-studded and brilliant? Have you ever thought that the greatest significance of the film is that New York director Todd Hayne made the story of the British Glam Rock movement derived from the early 1970s into a movie-when all movies set in the 1970s nowadays will only be popular in the same way When making the material for the disco music culture of Todd, Todd actually praised this flickering and short-lived rock era.
Looking back on the years of Glam Rock, even though it has produced influential musical figures such as David Bowie, Roxy Music or T-Rex, it is frankly that Glam Rock is not a great or revolutionary musical consciousness.
The film won the 71st Oscar for Best Costume Award, and was selected as one of the top ten best costumes in the French "Cinema Manual" in 1998.
