For me, the only surprise in the film was that in the club, a boy said, hello buddy, so-and-so music is really awesome, I just got on and off on the eDonkey! Wahaha! ! !
The famous world-class director also gave eDonkey a line. I wonder if he is proving that he is not old yet?
In addition, the film also used Cat power, Uffie, Vitamin C and other small alternative music groups, which is the youngest in the entire film.
The plot is still Ammo style, surrounded by several people, their relationship is like a jigsaw, arranged in an orderly manner in the unique rhythm of the film, the story gradually emerges, and the grievances and hatreds in it are also spoken out.
"Broken Embraces" and "Bad Education" are very similar. They both start with memories and gradually deepen, bringing out a large series.
But:
1. The latter has Amo's personal experience as a background, flesh and blood, it made me cry and like it too much. The former is relatively weak in plot, but two men versus one woman, clichéd and slightly tacky.
2. In the complex setting, the latter is also perfect, there are almost no unreasonable points, and no extra clues.
3. The latter's performance is heartbreaking, Gael's subtle portrayal of gays makes people insomniac, and the old priest's desire for flesh and blood is really anxious... and the former mainly focuses on Penelope, she moves The beauty is confusing.
4. The latter is very moderate in the grasp of details such as art, music, and clothing. For example, the underwear that Gael wears when he jumps into the swimming pool. Everything is for the plot and the service is thoughtful. But although the former gave Penelope many wonderful looks, it seems to have no decisive relationship with the plot. Like her wearing Monroe wig, it is very charming, but unfortunately it seems to be inserted into it, and it has nothing to do with the context.
A beautiful woman is committed to a big money old man because she wants to use money to treat her father. A director, because of the opportunity to choose an actor, met and fell in love with this beauty, and invited her to star in his own film. During the filming process, the beauty and the director had feelings, which aroused the jealousy of the little old man, and forced the couple to leave, which finally led to tragedy...In a car accident, the beauty was lost and the director was blind.
The little old man and his ex-wife’s child is a sissy and unpopular boy. He has been recording everything with a camera during the filming process.
Many years later, the director became a famous blind screenwriter, and the sissy of that year also grew up, and went to the director of the year to ask him to write the script, so the memory was evoked...The
director's partner was a A capable female producer, had a relationship with him, had a son, but always said that it was someone else's child. The mother and son have always been closely related to the director. The mother was the witness back then, and the son was the tracer later.
So the story basically revolves around 6 people: the beauty, the director, the little old man, the sissy, the mother and the son of the filmmaker.
But I personally have some doubts:
1. What is the necessity of a sissy setting? It doesn't seem to be. He can also be a normal person, but he is a little distorted in the special family environment. If you do such a setting, at least give some colors! However, in the film, this person was very wretched when he was young, with pimples on his face, like a follower. But when he grew up, his hair was shiny and his eyes looked evil. There was no specific reason for this change. It was a bit abrupt. Is it just to make this person look bad at the beginning and create suspense?
2. The car accident was a bit unclear, was it just a complete accident? In this case, the screenwriter is a bit perfunctory.
3. A past episode of the year was told by a female producer. The scene was filmed in a tavern. After a glass of Gin, the female producer finished talking about that year. The whole narrative refers to the female producer, I think she is really hard to talk about! Her son and the director were also embarrassed to hear them, and they had no scene to act. The big director just handled a scene like this. Is it because he believes too much in the charm of actors?
4. The son of a female producer works as a DJ in a club as an amateur, but at first glance I thought that place was an office, with large wooden tables and no people. The atmosphere was a bit strange. In addition, why should this child be sent to the hospital by passively taking drugs? It seems that there is no special need, is it because the film is not drug-related and it is not cool?
5. Beautiful women are not stupid, and know that the little old man is very awkward, why not find a better chance to slip away? There was a head-on conflict, and the leg was broken. And since the little old man already knew that the beauty and the director had feelings, how could he give them the opportunity to elope? Or just let the bad guys do it to the end, not let the beautiful women go to filming, and shut the house for violence. Or just find a private detective or something to follow every day, and dispatch whenever there is a situation.
There are still some places that I can't remember for a while.
Originally I just wanted to say a few words, but somehow I wrote a lot. Maybe it's because I have too much feelings for "Bad Education"!
Okay, stop.
I want to say that the most touching part of the film is the little old man watching the film. He zooms in on the screen every day his son’s shots. Since there is no recording, he is equipped with a lip language expert, a drug abuser, and the director. Every sentence. Infatuation with a person can always lead to rational abuse or disintegration. In the film, the director used the form of narration, particularly frankly, that he had never seen a man (little old man) so obsessed with a woman (beauty). However, in "Bad Education", I deeply remember the scene of the old priest watching the young brother doing push-ups. The painful look in his eyes shows everything...
