Written in front:
The Oscar is a recognition of honor, not the only criterion for good or bad, let alone a reference standard for scoring.
In the tribute to the deceased filmmaker, Shu Xilin is not considered at all. But at the just-concluded Japan Film Academy Awards, this matter was specially mourned.
When awarded to "Green Book" or "Rome", some people would like to scold him. The old white man was stupid, and the result was unfair. Then, is there a list of winners, and all the winners above are absolutely fair? In which year did the Lord of the Rings sweep?
So the question is not how to post the Oscars at all, but whether you are interested in these movies at all. It's like asking you, in 1998, what was your favorite movie? Many people can't answer at once. You like Queens, then you can follow "Bohemian Rhapsody". You prefer photography, so the big screen "Rome" may be your choice. Do you like it or hate it, the most important thing is this.
This movie is fried chicken?
For the continental United States, the biggest event in the 19th century was the Civil War, and the 20th century should be the abolition of racial discrimination. I don't know what it is in the 21st century.
What the "Green Book" is going to tell, even if you don't know the outline of the story, you probably know it by looking at a poster. Similar topics are not uncommon in Hollywood movies.
The contradiction it sets up is that there is still a general environment of racial discrimination, especially as it goes south, the more inhumane it is. This discrimination can also be understood as injustice and conflict.
The white driver came from the bottom, and his approach to this type of problem was fist and iron, without discussion. Doctor Piano is black, but he is a polite artist. His approach to problems is to be patient and detour, but he uses his actions to prove that blacks can also play with elegant art. This kind of role is based on real prototypes, but it has a progressive meaning and is comparable to the hero of "Golden Romance". The style is not weak.
Therefore, the biggest highlight of the "Green Book" is how two people complete the journey to the south. At the same time, white drivers will change their views and understand the difficulties of Doctor Piano. Similarly, the doctor will feel the survival knowledge of white drivers.
In the movie, the white driver almost instantly eliminates the psychological response to people of color-under the temptation of money. On the other hand, due to the isolation of the living area, his perception of racial discrimination did not and could not have felt the same. Only when he is tied up with the doctor, will he feel that he has also been trampled and offended.
My favorite scene...
Many people criticize this film as the biggest contradiction in "Green Book", shouldn't it be the pianist as the protagonist. As a result, in the movie, the performance of Aragorn, the king of fat and stomach, is obviously more eye-catching and dramatic. Account for more. And, in the end, with the warmth of "the same home", the racial problem on the fringe of the outbreak was resolved, and New York was the harbor for everyone.
New York is like this, it doesn't mean that the world around it is just like this. The driver also walked out of the small neighborhood, only to realize the beauty of nature, the vastness of the United States, and the unprovoked and deep roots of racism (which may not have disappeared). Doctors tend to go to Tiger Mountain and cheer the rich white people and the upper class with their skilful skills. This is another kind of courage to step out.
The Piano Doctor and the black man in the field looked at each other, and neither side understood why the other side happened to appear in that position. They have no words, only look at each other. For viewers who watched the "Green Book", it is true that they are only looking at the history of racial discrimination in the United States fifty years ago. However, the Doctor of Piano has both the artist's cold air, the depression of the black ethnic group and the loneliness of the "Moonlight Boy". Through the reconciliation of the class difference, the situation worsened all the way to the south, and the two people reached mutual tolerance and understanding. For example, through the old-fashioned way of writing letters, it shows that between husband and wife, and between people, it is the step that needs to actively seek understanding and express feelings.
Someone has to stand up and say
If you take racial discrimination themes seriously, or for directors like Spike Lee. So, today's status quo may not be exaggerated by the "Green Book", but it still exists. Otherwise, you can't leave this kind of subject matter only to black people to complain.
As for Chinese audiences who want to eliminate the mentality of watching fires from across the bank, they only need to replace black people with a certain ethnic group (although it is not exactly the same thing). No one dares to take them in. In fact, the same can be performed in this country.
Some people even say that China is the most discriminatory place. Actually, the difference between people and people exists everywhere in the world. The city discriminates against the country, the country discriminates against the mountain, and the mountain also discriminates against the mountain... It's like a Maori who has mastered the musket technique, killing the aborigines on another island. Skin color, body shape, appearance, clothing, language, these things that can be distinguished at a glance, quickly divided human beings into ethnic groups of different sizes. But movies like "Green Book" will first tell everyone that humans still have to treat each other as equals. This kind of universal value should be upheld by everyone. Whether you think it is fake, hypocritical, or white people cover up to speak to black people, etc., there is nothing wrong with this general direction and foundation.
Some people say, do you still need movies to preach?
These things are actually in the same line with courage, justice, and resistance. Even if the predecessors have said infinitely, and at a certain period of time, everyone's ears are called, they still have to be said again and again (finally rewinding to the beginning and the title). This is the direction in which a civilized society is heading.
Aragorn can gain weight and gluttony, and he can also put down his body, especially when he is holding up the wicked, it really has the style of "History of Violence". The actor Ali can also handle it, basically there is no place to break. The only deviation is probably that the subject to be reflected is indeed clicked, and you will accept it when you see it. In the end, the big social family will always tolerate everything, say Merry Christmas, and be happy.
