Micron is serious
Sometimes, a moving movie (score) theme song can often make the original excellent image scene and the story script complement each other; in contrast, it can also make a poorly bad movie appear less embarrassing and call the screen. The memory of the former audience. As the movie enters the final scene, when the familiar melody sounds, some scenes in my mind seem to be vivid.
Especially in the movie "The Aeronauts" (The Aeronauts) released at the end of this year, the new-generation Norwegian singer-songwriter Sigrid sings an outspoken "Home to You" at the end of the film, with a unique taste. The sweet texture and the slightly hoarse rock sound line, as if the characters in the film constantly contend with gravity and challenge the limit. During this period, they have experienced many obstacles and thrilling bridges, and finally returned to the ground smoothly, but they always lead the viewers' emotions. That uneasy heart was so inexplicably appeased by singing.
Even if the remaining sound circulates around the beam for a long time, and its stamina is so great, you may still be tempted to imagine that at certain moments, you will embrace each other with your partner who has been in trouble.
Adventure is an act of curiosity
Just ask, why do those people who love mountain climbing, polar exploration, extreme sports and other related people all their lives risk their lives so often and still persist? Don't even consider your life to devote your whole body and mind, just to transcend the current limitations of the world, and stop until you die? It seems that there is no special reason, and the answer is probably not difficult to imagine: as long as you try it once, once you successfully overcome that obstacle, you will often have an addictive pleasure.
In 2019, the British director Tom. Harper (Tom Harper) directed the new work "Hot Air Balloon Flyer", the story tells the story of the female hot air balloon Flyer Emilia in 1862 and the British meteorologist James. Glaser, in order to understand the convection phenomenon in the upper atmosphere of the atmosphere and explore the scientific mystery of weather prediction, the two embarked on a thrilling adventure in the hot air balloon, the only flying tool before the aircraft was invented in the early days.
At the end of the film, they finally approached the high altitude of the troposphere smoothly. At an altitude of 10,900 meters (approximately 35,000 feet), they broke the highest record of human flying in a hot air balloon and completed this first survey. An important journey in the appearance of atmospheric stratification.
However, in contrast to real historical records, Glaser's partner at the time was not Emilia, but another male pilot, Henry. Coxville (Henry Coxwell). He was not only an enthusiastic hot-air balloon adventurer, but also a leading professional pilot at the time. He had piloted hot-air balloons many times and flew from the United Kingdom to various European cities, constantly testing the flying limits of hot-air balloons. He was entrusted by the British Scientific Association in 1862 to serve as a hot-air balloon pilot for many aviation experiments, and therefore cooperated with Glaser many times.
Historian Jefny Ashcroft said that Glaser’s record-breaking history was completely an accident. The valve drops, and the two may have died long ago.
In this regard, perhaps we shouldn’t forget that in 1910, the British polar explorer Robert Scott led a group of five members on the sailing ship "Terra Nova" (Terra Nova) to Antarctica for surveys, but later due to lack of physical strength and fuel. Lack of accidental tragedies that caused all the members to die collectively under hunger and cold. Later, one of the members who participated in the investigation was the British zoologist Epsley. Xue Rui-Glad), recorded the adventure of this heroic sacrifice, and published "The World's Most Sinister Journey" in 1922, a classic book describing Antarctic expeditions.
The biggest driving force that inspired Scott and his team to engage in adventure and urge them to move forward was not masculine, but curiosity. Xue Rui-Glad emphasized in the book: This journey makes our language useless No words can express the horror in Wuzhi.
Wandering between the real and the fiction
What is controversial about the movie itself is that although "Hot Air Balloonist" has an introduction "adapted from real people" at the beginning of the film, the main characters are far from the real history.
In the film, the director sets a fictional female pilot, Emilia, not only to replace Henry, who actually assisted the hero Glaser in the hot air balloon flight. Coxville even turned the mainstream gender characteristics of the British scientific community in the nineteenth century.
In contrast to Glaser, the male scientist's femininity, introversion, stubbornness and stubbornness, and even holding the consciousness of death, he forced to climb without fate, just to satisfy her enthusiasm for inquiring scientific truth; in contrast, Emilia is temperamental. Rigidly release, with years of experience and intuition in hot-air balloon adventures, she not only knows how to respond when faced with the severe test of life and death, but also because of the painful experience of her husband's death during the flight in the past, she has a clearer understanding of which key must be taken. At the critical point, he stepped on the brakes and turned his head back, and insisted on landing safely.
In this expedition, Glaser and Emilia have completely different personalities, but they can perform their own duties, complement each other, and are indispensable for each other. Therefore, the English title of the film, The Aeronauts, symbolizes that the pilot is not just one person, but plural. What's interesting is that at the beginning of the film's release, the slogan put out through the media was that the hero and heroine Eddie. Redman and Felicity. Jones met again.
Aiming at Emilia, who dominates the eyes of all the audience as the first heroine (heroine) in the film, she almost completely ignores the historical status and role of this real person in Coxville. Many film critics have strongly raised this point. Doubt, and even think that it is somewhat deceptive.
Director Tom. Harper specifically clarified that although Emilia is a fictional character, her character prototype is taken from the 19th century French hot air balloon pilot Sophie. Blanchett, she was the first female pilot in history to fly a hot air balloon alone. Even the French emperor Napoleon at the time often invited her to perform flight shows at various important festivals.
Summary: Dreams arise from the times
From lift-off to landing, carrying their own dreams and the shackles of wanting to break free, flying in the sky, such as the legendary deeds of the first pilot, it is definitely worthy of local filmmakers to make a historically significant and visual A classic blockbuster with special effects and entertainment.
