Few people don't know him, maybe some don't, and some even despise them. However, as far as I am concerned, he seems to have existed in a certain period of time. During that period of time, he repeatedly watched and listened to his music, but he never paid attention to the meaning of the lyrics. He also learned more about him from the United States. People come to a place called Liverpool in the UK, but I have never been there, so I don't know what kind of place it is.
Therefore, the introduction of this film made me watch with a curious mood. Or more with the mentality of watching biopics, always want to know what kind of place and what a coincidence, can make a person a legend of an era, and let people know each other. But when I saw it, I was surprised that the angle involved in this film turned out to be like that of "Fashion Pioneer Chanel". It was Lennon's lush years before he became the famous Lennon in the world. It was another bold angle, and another time that made people a little scared and worried, but I was very fascinated at first, because it was a natural thing to let a legendary character return to nature. Go to those halos, just like in the navy blue sky at night in Dali that night, two moon halos surround the bright moon, even if it is so cool and beautiful, it is the moon that shines beautifully after all, and will not be lost because of the disappearance of the moon halo. Brilliance.
So when this Lennon appeared before my eyes, there seemed to be a natural halo in the picture, isolated from a certain mysterious and unpredictable history. There was no vain ego or evasive family, which is very British. It's not Chinese, so when "Confucius" was released last year, I heard what a so-called entrepreneur said to me, Confucius is a god, why he was photographed as a beggar? This completely ruined the spiritual image. But I said, maybe it's just our tasteless face that will destroy. Therefore, biographical films like this are expected to be labelled as detrimental to their cultural image and be cast aside, just like those who cast aside Lennon.
I often like to read the biographies of celebrities. I don’t know if it’s because of my obsession or I always hope to find a certain pattern. From the first biographical movie about Elvis to the current movie, it seems to be discovered. A common rule is that they have never avoided the obscure lives of the creators of these great legends. Lennon’s growth environment lacked the facts of a normal family. There was a dilemma between his mother and aunt, the shyness of longing for maternal love, and the rebellion against what seemed to be a monotonous life. How many of these were the distress that an ordinary person would have. .
The film did not avoid those possible stains, did not have a father’s growth environment, went to the audio-visual store to steal vinyl discs, lay on the roof of the green double-decker bus to avoid the pranks of buying tickets, and messed with the girl in the jungle, it seems that None of the behaviors that a great man should have, but this is Lennon. It is not surprising to think about the seemingly absurd things he did later in the United States. Dare to face is the honesty that a genius should have. Just like Jay Hawkins's "I cast a spell on you" in the film, the wild and unruly jazz is actually rock and roll in his bones, combined with the short ups and downs of Shaks and the steady drumbeat, so Isn’t music just a gorgeous-looking performance?
Under the influence of his biological mother, Lennon began to learn to play the banjo. It was also because of his mother’s sensitivity to music that he finally decided to become a person like Elvis, in the scene where time seems to be flying fast. , There is only one person who concentrates on practicing the piano and enjoys himself, where he is as quiet as a natural person. Then he formed the original band and got to know Paul. When the cowardly and overly elegant Paul appeared, perhaps many people could not accept such a person to interpret Paul. However, no one knows what Lennon and Paul were like at that time, so it is precisely because no one can interpret that being so godlike and sealed into a certain kind of sanity is better than that face. But what I feel is that from the actors of Lennon and Paul, what I see more is the interpretation of the hearts and spirits of these two great figures. The final disintegration of the encounter between the two can also be felt from the tense aura when the two met. A great band accommodates two unparalleled people in the world, and at that time they had not yet reached adulthood.
The most touching thing is that after his mother died, Lennon took the money that his mother saved for him to record a single in the studio. You can perceive that a boy finally turned around and matured and embraced love deeply after the short relationship between family members passed away. The man in my heart, I shed tears.
If you want to become a person like Lennon, you must accept the dilemma of childhood and family affection. If you are jealous of those who can become legends and want to find traces from the past, one after another. Or when you want to question your own incompetence, I think all this is nothing you need to do, because a stroke from God also requires you to actively find the drawable piece of paper. That piece of paper is a kind of power that can melt sorrow and hatred into warm morning light.
Just like the song "In spite all of the danger": Despite the dangers, I will still give everything for you, as long as you are willing, as long as you treat me sincerely, despite the sadness, it was you who brought me, and I will still do You give everything. I will take care of you. I have never done this for anyone. I will block other people and prevent them from disturbing you. Despite the dangers and uncertainties, I will still give everything for you.
Faced with such frankness, isn't the stroke of God's illusion.
