Strictly speaking, I was watching this movie backwards. The structure and neatness of the whole movie can be said to be a pair of rigorous night scenes. The content of the first night is like the excitement of a big circus. The performance was interspersed with a somewhat blunt and lame conspiracy as a clue. So I chose to fast forward, but when I saw the protagonist’s encouragement from the wax figure Roosevelt and the dignity that a father should have in front of his son, I faced the words of a museum’s history and led everyone At that time, I couldn't help but have a different idea.
Yes, according to the classic American movie technique, in this scene, a little character is once again sublimated without any suspense. But unlike the lonely heroes of the past, in the face of such a heavy house full of history, this sublimation seems to have a different meaning. The director’s idealistic view of history is displayed in front of people through this little man. His words, It seems that it has become a good medicine to resolve the estrangement of human civilization for thousands of years. The entire history of humanity and natural history are presented before his eyes, and they coexist peacefully and harmoniously. The history of centuries is like a toy on a child's table here. Like the doll, if you want to advance, you must advance, and you must retreat and retreat. Imagine if human beings can coexist in such a rational way, it would be great if they can be overthrown like a child’s play. The
director’s ridicule actually creates a utopian human history scene for us, which reminds me of it. In the fairy tales of Zheng Yuanjie that he had read as a child, such realistic ideal scenes often appear in his stories. The difference is that you can really enter the space of imagination. To put it bluntly, it is to let the audience dream the most realistic daydream. He is not as ethereal as Harry Potter or the Lord of the Rings, but it will also give people the greatest spirit. Satisfaction, because it is something everyone can imagine as a child. Who has not had the experience of putting various toy dolls on the table?
Once again, the director showed the history equally seriously from a different perspective (even if it is not a historical fact, it should be the director's historical attitude). From the psychological counseling to the Mongolian king and the matching of the romance of the Roosevelt Indian girls. After all, for these images with only the faces of great people, both the protagonist and the director themselves are less nervous and looking up. Feelings. In
the final analysis, this comedy has a more positive meaning due to the above-mentioned humanistic brilliance. At the end, it still reveals the regret and irony of the gap between the academic and the public. From the characters in the play, the historical facts The irreconcilability of the persistence spirit in the real world seems to be calling, calling people to enter this magical world that is already magical enough and enjoy it.
