Shy little dream
In everyone's heart, there are more or less one or two dreams that are difficult to be elegant and can only secretly commit adultery alone .
Some are too humble, too naive, detrimental to face and dignity, for fear of being laughed at.
When Nobita was in the school team, his leadership was under the basket. As soon as he grabbed a rebound, the challenger would be knocked on his back and another foul. He would hug the basketball with his strong arms, his eyes swept across the court, with a domineering look of the world. His secret is that he loves to play with cross stitch, he likes to match himself with shades of five-color cotton thread, and he enjoys the peace of mind when the needles fly up and down. His dream is to complete a nine-foot-long "Ching Ming Shanghe Tu", because after going to university, he can only go home during the holidays to embroider, fearing that his classmates will laugh as "the East is undefeated." Had it not been for that day that he had taken things to me on the top of the bookcase, and dropped out a plastic bag with colorful cotton coils scattered all over the floor, I would not have discovered his secret.
Some are out of fashion, conflict with mainstream ideas, and are afraid of being criticized.
Manny never told her parents that she was working as a photojournalist in the school newspaper, and one of her photographs won an award. She wanted to apply for the art secondary school in the high school entrance examination...Finally, due to her family concept, she finally chose the financial secondary school.
Some are too bold and seem to surpass their actual abilities. They have no confidence at first, so they are more worried about the opinions of the outside world.
When my dad was 50 years old, suddenly he would shut himself in the room for 20 minutes every day, without asking him what he was doing. Only one day, when I moved a stool and peeked from the glass above the door, I discovered that he was practicing handstand, because Jackie Chan, who was about his age, could do it. After being exposed by me, his old man never practiced anymore.
Yes, under the double pressure of external prejudice and self-denial, many little dreams that can't be seen are abandoned halfway.
Nick Frost is different. Although this 42-year-old middle-aged greasy actor is as fat as a bear and looks like a hammer, he has never been to acting school or played a leading role. I realized my dream that I dared not share with others—becoming the protagonist of a dance movie.
"I have always wanted to act in a dance film, a beautiful, colorful, crystal sequins and silk shirts everywhere, Baz Luhrmann (Baz Luhrmann, director of "Moulin Rouge" and other blockbuster songs and dances )-Style dance movie".
"This idea lingered in my mind for a long time. It was a little secret that made me feel a little ashamed. Only one night, I mustered up my courage and emailed my friend and producer Nira Park and said this. Idea. The moment I knew that Nira liked the idea, I knew that my dream was about to come true, and I really wanted to act in a dance movie."
Nick Frost is really lucky. He has stepped into the film industry, a magical and passionate industry. Anyone in the film can overcome obstacles, turn bad luck and realize their dreams.
Dancing wins life
In this comedy dance film "Cuba fury", Bruce Garrett, played by Nick Frost, is a total loser. He looks rough, overweight, and single. He is a manufacturer of heavy industrial lathes. The company’s engineers work diligently, and the coffee cup says "I love the lathe", which is always the target of the boss's joke.
He cycled to and from get off work, but always ordered too many takeaways; he regarded golf as a hobby, but he always couldn’t score a hole; he hung out with his two useless friends, talking about women every day, but Never get favored.
What can I do to save Bruce Garrett's pale and sad life?
In the movie "Song in the Rain", Kim Kelly gave the answer half a century ago, "Dancing, only dancing". When Bruce re-started the Salsa dance, which he had given up for twenty years, he really became the most masculine fat man in the world (Yue Yunpeng ranked second), exuding an aura of excess hormones, gentle and domineering. , Thoughtful and charming, turned those muscular men with sharp faces and firm expressions into icy sculptures.
Bruce clearly conveyed a message that only Saosa can really make him come alive, as his friend said, "That guy has to dance."
This is a story of regaining self-confidence and igniting passion. Bruce's love for his beautiful colleague Julia is not the point. She is just the ideal girlfriend of a straight man, beautiful and generous, smart and easy-going, sometimes a little unconfident, and occasionally make some confused and cute little mistakes. For Bruce, Julia just likes it very much, but she can't talk about love.
As Nick Frost said, the core of this Waveman comedy is not love but Sao. Love only sparks a spark, and dancing makes the passion and soul reborn. " Tiao Sao Sha is what he did for himself, not for women. Because of his passion for life, he suddenly became attractive. The beauty of the body will slowly fade, but the passion for life will never be ."
Therefore, the chemical reaction between Bruce and his male colleague Drew is even more fascinating. This overbearing man who is good at coaxing girls with rhetoric and going smoothly is a hurdle in Bruce's life. For Bruce, the fat man, he regarded mocking and teasing as humor; for the women around, Drew regarded indulgence and frivolousness as chic and charming. Using dancing to fight back against Drew was the process by which Bruce defeated himself.
Two middle-aged men, tit-for-tat and unscrupulously dance, fight from the parking lot to the roof, which is much more exciting than martial arts fighting, making people laugh so that the corners of their mouths are numb and their belly cramps.
Go boldly to chase dreams
Before "Cuban Ronin", Nick Frost had always been a supporting role, following the UK's most talented, most creative, funniest screenwriter and actor Simon Pegg (Simon Pegg), began to collaborate more than ten years ago A series of British nonsensical films "Zombie Shaun", "Detective Blood" and "End of the World" are known as the trilogy of blood and ice cream. (Friends who are tired of movie routines and want to find something new and exciting, you can pair it with eating fried chicken and drinking beer. It will definitely make you feel refreshed.)
Nick Frost is a comedian, but his life is not full of joy. He suffered unsimilar pains during his youth, including his father’s bankruptcy and the family’s economic downturn. He witnessed his mother’s horror of stroke. He was 15 years old. The experience of taking drugs away from home and working in a restaurant...He knows deeply what it is like to be a loser who has been abandoned by life.
As an overweight supporting actor with a miserable teenager, Nick Frost was not so firm and confident deep down when he appeared in this dance film.
He carried out eight hours a day and seven months of dance training in the famous pineapple dance training room in the UK. "When I smoke at my sweaty door, people often ask me, "What are you doing here?" I want to train to be a dancer," I said. At this time, they all smiled incredibly. Then go away."
Except that most people don't believe he can dance, he doesn't have much confidence himself. He admitted that he had once rushed into the men's bathroom and cried twice because he couldn't stand the choreographer and reprimanded himself as a little boy. "I thought it was strange at the time that there were so many male ballet shoes around."
After he calmed down a bit, he returned to the training room. The moment he saw the dance teacher, tears burst into his eyes again. "I grabbed my dancing shoes and tights and left. Of course, I came back the next day, because I couldn't bear the frustration that I could do it but didn't do it. Then, I mastered it in five minutes. Yesterday’s actions."
Even in the movie, Nick Frost did not feel inferior in performing with a group of professional Latin dancers, but he was still not used to dancing in front of a group of people, not used to dancing.
"I have always liked dancing, but when the music sounds, I still don't stand on the dance floor, but like to swing my body a little bit freely with the music."
"As a British, not a Cuban, I kept apologizing to a girl because I had to pick her up. This is not what my culture does. We don’t dance like that anymore. This is a piece of Sad things".
However, this movie made Nick Frost even more fond of dancing, because dancing can make him happy, establish close connections with people around him, and accomplish something that he has never done before.
"The other thing learned in that movie is that there is a direct relationship between dancing and happiness. I think it's really important. Dancing is so good, so great!"
"In the entire seven months, I met hundreds of dancers, about 10 of whom were my full-time coaches. I have never seen them sad or depressed. They just like to dance."
He danced with his little baby and it was their happiest time.
He danced with his friends, including Olivia Colman, who played his sister, and made dance movies that made them so close.
He has started one independent film project after another. Maybe it will be a big success, maybe it's just mediocre. Who knows?
After announcing to the world that he is a fat man who loves to dance, Nick Frost did not become a Latin dancer in real life, but he gained self-confidence and received feedback from dancing.
