Seeing this movie in McGee's "Story", this kind of movie about the movie, just reading the plot description in the book, I find it very interesting. Today, whenever a director points the camera at the suffering of the people at the bottom , There will still be opposing voices that this is a kind of overlook from the upper class and further exploitation of the bottom. The topic of discussion on realist movies is still very topical today.
I just wanted to take a look at it, but found that this movie is quite pleasant to me. Many dialogues and scenes are quite interesting. Record it.
1. When Sullivan went to watch a tragic movie in a theater in the countryside, there were loud snacks, whistling, hiccups and baby crying in the theater. Unexpectedly, they would not respect the content on the screen at all. Going to the theater may be regarded as an occasional extravagant pastime for them. It paved the way for the last climax of the laborers watching cartoons.
2. The conversation with the guards when the male protagonist was redeemed from the prison for the first time was really interesting!
"What are you doing in those clothes?"
"I've just paid my income tax."
"How does the girl fit in this picture?"
"There's always a girl in the picture. Haven't you ever been in a movie?"
These two paragraphs are a bit of a British joke
3. After the male lead took the female lead back to the mansion, the female lead said that she seemed to be happy but a little disappointed, because she just thought she got a tramp friend who was willing to steal a car for her, but turned out to be a director. She went back to the starting point. A girl who wants to accompany the director to eat breakfast. In fact, many romance films have such plots. The male protagonist has changed from a downturn to a successful person, but the female protagonist finds that she loves the former impoverished male protagonist more. I think the dialogue in this movie is very accurate. The mentality is described. Although the heroine line is not necessary for the main storyline, the love line in this film is still quite interesting. The dialogue between the heroine and the prison guards also officially complained about his love line.
4. Needless to say, the highlight clip at the end directly sublimated the theme. I always think that comedy is the most difficult genre to make. It is harder to make people laugh than to make people cry, and it is also thankless. It is of course necessary to care for the bottom of society, but it is not wrong to treat movies as entertainment and pastimes. For the audience, they also need some comedies that do not require profound and brainless laughter to escape the already bitter reality.
The film is not biased towards any extreme. As one of the art forms, the film is either to entertain the public or caring for human beings to present society. The protagonist finally said that he gave up making films with social significance because his suffering was not enough. He was a director of boarding school since he was a child. He not only failed to convince the audience, but also failed to convince himself by filming bitter and hated movies. Since his talent lies in entertaining the public, he let others do well in the education of society.
