Of course, this "limitation" may not have affected the money of the film tycoons and their reputations. In the impetuous atmosphere, I can't find anyone who is calm, and can only find relatively low-key and impetuous. The small format, as long as the shot is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is a masterpiece. Therefore, "The King's Speech" and "Black Swan" were all favored by the Oscars. "127 Hours" was pretended to be a blockbuster film and was enshrined as an inspirational book by fans. The silent film tribute to "The Artist" also became one of the pacemakers of the 84th Oscar. And the glory of the Oscars in 1994-"Shawshank's Redemption", "Forrest Gump", "Love Years", "True Lies", "Pulp Fiction", "Scorching Sun" and "The Lion King" may be difficult to reproduce, even if that At that time, some directors were also striving for omnipotence, but the "magnanimity" they strived for in the plot was sadly entangled in the "foot-binding cloth" of Xiaojiabiyu. It must be a pity to think about spending a lot of money to build a snail house.
However, this is the current status of the entire film industry. Film masters either burn money to buy pleasure, or make home videos into movies. Anyway, put them on the market as soon as possible and recover the costs. No matter how picky the movie-goers are, they can only adapt as soon as possible, otherwise they will find themselves awkward. This is how I adapted to it. Some time ago, I worked hard to applaud Polanski's "Killing", and now I have discovered the French film "Unreachable", and the applause sounded again.
As mentioned above, "Unreachable", which became a big winner at the Tokyo Film Festival last year, is a small format film. Adapted from a real life story, the plot is extremely simple. It tells the story of a middle-aged aristocrat Philip, who was paralyzed, and the young black man Derris who took care of him. This story is somewhat reminiscent of the old film "Keep Your Lovers" by the big-mouthed beauty Julia Roberts. However, it chooses another warmer, happier and more relaxed perspective, and speaks with facts. The god of destiny is not Tragedies are always remembered.
As soon as "Unreachable" opened, the spectators were hooked. This should be a good start to the success of the whole show. Rhythm, pictures, and music are all in the audience's favor. Perhaps, the preconceived "good impression" is sometimes a small motivation for the director to continue to perform exceptionally. Next, using the end-to-end flashback method, the central content of the film is brought out, how Philip "loves at first sight" for the caregiver Deris, and how Deris's livelihood is solved in the opportunity of "Unintentionally Cutting the Willow into the Willow" . In short, the whole show is very enjoyable, small and compact, sharp yet flexible. The shortcomings I thought were only in the real "Philip and Dress" who showed up for "the icing on the cake". Although there were only a few seconds of images, the two people's true state of being too introverted and silent has somewhat interfered with the truth. The atmosphere of equality, trust and happiness created by Langçois Cruze and Omar Sai successfully.
Returning to the plot, in addition to the two protagonists' performances and courtesy resistance, what catches the eye is the various film techniques and techniques that cater to the audience. The director of this film is not afraid of the "unconventional" infamy and embarked on the road of "falling schoolbags". There is nothing bad about it. Sometimes, when you love something so much, you only have naked worship. . Woody Allen loves Paris so much. He is fascinated by his artistic heritage in "Midnight Paris", which makes him squeeze into the Oscar nomination, but also makes him more lovely in the hearts of millions of fans. Has it become a beautiful talk?
What's more, Europeans already have the capital to show off, Chopin, Schubert, Berlioz, Beethoven, Bach, Courbet, Monet, Van Gogh, ... all kinds of art masters are famous or unknown, I do not know how to count them. when. And the director of "Unreachable" in the natural character "personality conflict", with the help of the magic of music without borders, he deeply achieved the goal of killing two birds with one stone. It not only made the movie pleasing to the eye, but also gave the music a lofty mission. By the way Conveyed the good wish to eliminate the indifferent distance between people.
It can be said that the sections with music are what I particularly like. At Philip's birthday party, Derris's intuitive expression of classical music, apart from humor, was too realistic and vivid. After the gorgeous classical music, Deris' dance skills, accompanied by the romantic and suave modern music, the song "Boogie Wonderland" by Earth Wind and Fire, left me a wonderful memory segment. During the parachute jump, insert "Feeling Good", the scene is blended, and it is a beautiful audio-visual enjoyment. This classic song, which has been covered by countless people and appeared in Broadway musicals and many movies, has become a veritable guest professional. .
Music can sweep away the haze and convey its mood to humans. The temperament of "Out of Touch" is endless joy. Even if relying on the protagonist's disability, it is sometimes dotted with gray areas of mocking society, but what the film itself wants to convey is the spirit of hope and optimism. Thinking about it this way, I’m going to classify "Out of Touch" as an inspirational movie, which is the real reason why it is so popular. Feel the taste of laughter with tears.
The following can be ignored. Just want to use "Unreachable" to talk nonsense again!
I personally think that in this vulgarization century that is more exciting, crazy, material, and indifferent than ever before, "inspirational" products-inspirational products for the purpose of comforting the soul, have become a hot seller that is in short supply. However, the same inspirational products are somewhat different in terms of inspirational effects.
There are those who are looking for fun and watching, some are envy and jealous, some are secretly worshiping, some are genuine and mythical, and some are compassionate.
The tabloid will follow "Brother Smiling", because the brother said, don't find a job for him. He picked up the money and played Tibet. Many people are embarrassed when they hear that, isn't the whole life of being a cow and a horse just wanting to live like "Brother Smile" as he pleases. This inspirational is indifferent to people onlookers, you are free and yours, we pull our troubles.
Perhaps, the premise of doing whatever one wants is to be as rich as Bill Gates, but what Mr. Zhao said to the people of the whole country in the spring evening is also very profound. The saddest thing about people is that people are gone and money is not spent. .
This is not absolute! The money has not been spent, what is the situation? If in Europe, in Paris, an ancestral house that doesn't need to be demolished can shelter future generations. Even if a little bit of bad luck, he can live more decently and with dignity than a healthy person, just like the male protagonist Philip in the movie "Unreachable". Zhai Ye Zhai has a unique taste. If you want to talk about online love, you will not encounter "death by sight". In addition to having a biographical novel and a biographical documentary, you can also make a beautiful inspirational movie that will move you to death.
Obviously, Smiling Brother is the first one I mentioned. Compared with Sister Furong, who has recently lost weight, he still lacks a bit of awe-inspiring effect. Sister Furong demonstrated the second kind. Almost all Internet users who grew up with her learned to "introspect", saving the fat girl, ugly girl, and hopeless girl's future from the top of the sky, and let those who want to leverage the Internet to take advantage of the carp. The confidence of all kinds of strange flowers who jumped the dragon's gate skyrocketed. Sorry about my sister, I have to admit that they have a hand, this is the sour and very life-like "inspirational" product.
The secret worship type is relatively niche, because it follows that sentence. It is better for this person to be a grassroots civilian background, and he must be much better than others, not a little bit, at least to throw others out of the street. His inspirational effect came out. Joe Bush is the best example. Before 1996, he hid cats and cats with fruit fans. Perhaps no one was looking for him with his eyes. When he launched the iPod, he finally had the power to tell himself. , But not strong enough. After "Uncle Ren" in the real estate industry can use Apple to wash his name as the enemy of the people, Jobs has become a real "inspirational emperor." However, the word "secretly" has become fair and honest. It is hard to say whether this has anything to do with his death, but it cannot be denied that he was not all smooth sailing in his lifetime.
The true mythical type, this one is mostly aimed at those inspirational characters who are ancient or illusory. For example, Van Gogh, Cao Xueqin, Mussorgsky, etc., their value was not recognized during their lifetime, so they should be compensated in later generations. This kind of inspirational figure can give people spiritual healing. People with artistic dreams have one or two such benchmarks in their hearts. When they want to give up their ideals, they have the courage to stick to them for a while. Unreal, it's easier to find, Cinderella, Batman, V Monster, Hong Qigong, Qiao Feng, etc. Which one doesn't make you really like it.
The heart-born compassionate type mostly appears in film and television dramas, just like "Unreachable", which perceive happiness from giving "sympathy". "Forrest Gump" is of this type, "My Left Foot" and "Rain Man" are also of this type. Anyway, the inspirational heroes seem to have encountered some physical misfortunes, and these irreversible tragedies have been used for transcendence. The endowments and talents of the masses are looked up to by people, and ordinary people with "superiority" hidden in their hearts can naturally tolerate their greatness, and they have compassion in their hearts and regard them as inspirational idols in their hearts.
I have said so much nonsense, just want to say that inspirational movies are indeed deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and inspirational characters will always be the protagonists in the movie story. Just shoot any one and you can become a cash cow, as long as you can see the emptiness of modern people.
