Romain Duris can be described as the most promising new-generation actor in France. This can be seen from the list of actresses who have worked with him: old partners Audrey Tartu, Eva Green, Melanie Roland, Vannett Sarah Paradis, Juliet Binoche, Charlotte Gansbo...How many popular French actresses have not worked with him? In terms of appearance, he is not as good as Louis Garrell, who played his brother with him in "In Paris", but his unique temperament is more pleasing: cute, sexy, impulsive, gentle, warm, confused, and cheap and cute. feel. This kind of temperament not only allows him to be dizzy, wandering, but also depressive, complicated, and schizophrenic in his literary and artistic films. It also allows him to convince the public with his love scene masters in commercial films. When Roman plays a wise gentleman such as a lawyer, you know that something will happen behind him, and you always feel that his self-discipline, restraint, and rational appearance contains an impending crisis.
The same goes for "One-Key Fame", which is nicknamed the typed version of "Fair Lady". It is not Ruth, a country girl trained by Leather Marion, who has experienced a spiritual crisis, but himself. Although Deborah François is not a big star, she has a rebellious, lively and courageous temperament, which is suitable for acting as a couple with Roman. At the end of the 1950s, the French people moved from a conservative era to a transitional period of modern life. In that era when the rapid typing speed was regarded as an awesome thing (see the stampede in the Italian movie "Rome at 11 o'clock"), Ruth's The goal is simple and straightforward: to be a modern woman with a job, and to have love with equal relationships. Her competitive spirit was also discovered by the competitive Louis. Even if she was misunderstood and alienated by conservative others and her father, and was inexplicably abandoned by her lover, she was still optimistic, and the literary masterpieces she had read by her lover became a guide to life. Only such a girl can combine with Louis, who is timid and shrinking in front of happiness. Louis’s problem is big. The picky father of his strong father, the failure of his first love, and the trauma of war caused his self-protective character that seems to talk about utilitarian but not affection, and even willing to serve as a foil. But he also has the qualities of a modern perfect lover: he can admire women. Precious talent, will serve women, cook, massage.
There are too many places to pay tribute to "The Fair Lady", and even Louis has a close buddy, but the plot here is more reasonable. Close to the end of the film, we confirmed the conjecture: the buddy's wife (Bege, who won the Cannes film queen for "The Past" in 2013 Niss Beggio), is the first love of Louis's childhood sweetheart. This beautiful and generous woman has become an external force for Louis to attack the emotional road several times. Without the support of this pair of tacit and loving couples, can the inferiority Louis find love back?
This innocent and retro romance film is exquisite in details such as historical environment and character movements, and it also demonstrates the modern spirit in terms of the status and relationship of men and women. At the end, it proves that the stereotype of looking for love still works, and it is rare for a romantic movie to be so burning.
Highlights: On Christmas Eve, Louis invited Ruth to dance a tango; the photography and editing methods of each final made the audience feel the excitement of sports events and Ruth's enthusiasm for typing on the keyboard; the background music was appropriate from beginning to end.
You can also watch: "A Fairy Lady", "Pocahontas".
