Bo Bonnie,
they are incumbent on being together. They are taken for granted. They are burdened by the sales of global entertainment magazines, the expectations of global moviegoers, and the red envelopes of global tabloid reporters working overtime. They appeared in Paris holding hands. They appeared in the desert holding hands. Life is too boring. Hollywood has been too boring in recent years. In the movie, they need to save the safety of the world, in reality, they need to save the boring world. The moment when they appear at the same time, the scene is like the most thrilling blast in a Hollywood movie: more than 120 cameras are clicked and clicked, different camera positions and different angles are exposed, the whole world is silent, and all ears have become The quiet radio rod, waiting for their clues at any time. Close-ups, follow-up, rumors, rumors, a new round of rumors and a new round of rumors...Who call them the coolest men and women ever?
Brad Pitt, sweaty and untamed in the movie, he is the most beautiful cowboy, because guilt and love have become the epic of wind; he is the most charming death, flirting with a faint smile and eyes; he is the best An innocent vampire, his fate makes him extremely sad; he is the greatest ruffian and boxer, spurned order, full of destructiveness, bruised nose and triumphant. From the time he played a gangster who cheated women on money in the first movie "The End of the World", he was the sexual fantasies of all women. For many years, he is also the fantasy of a prodigal son in Hollywood. He is passionate and unruly. He returns and enters a safe marriage. At the same time, he is also a totem: a totem of a complete man.
Angelina Jolie, she is already famous when she appears in people's sight. She has a famous father who doesn't care. She had an unhappy and indulgent childhood. She was kissing her brother at the age of thirteen. She lived with a man when she was fourteen. She has sex with sexy men, and she has sex with sexy women. She has fifteen tattoos on her body, and she will add another one for her child recently. She was never a princess, but an absolute queen. She said that she enjoys SM. How dare you imagine that she is the one being abused? She is extremely sexy, and she uses this power to attack and conquer. She is extremely beautiful, and her appearance is not stunning, it is horror. She is extremely strong, and she never has to look at people with meek eyes. This woman was seven months pregnant and even flew a plane on her own. She likes blood, fighting, and carrying a knife. She chose two children for herself, both of whom were of color. Anytime, anywhere, exudes a strong motherhood. She is not going to marry a man, but to choose a father for her own children.
We are like Hollywood filmmakers who clearly see the huge box office value hidden behind the pairing when they choose the role pairings, without any doubt, understand what kind of fate they are about to cause when they are together. "Smiths" proves this point. Wonderful and hot, vulgar and old-fashioned. The audience is not going to watch an action movie, but to watch the sexiest men and women flirting. They did a good job and at the same time realized that they could do better. They enlarged the scenes that the audience expected to see and introduced reality.
Why do audiences always look forward to celebrity couples who are dying and dying on the screen, and they are inextricably in love in real life? First, because they look good. Take a look at the photos they took, all of them are pleasing to the eye, just like stills. They are reality shows that broadcast 24 hours a day. Second, they are lively. Only their gathering and separation, there are so many gossips, so many inside stories. A lot of experts jumped out, looking at faces, constellations, palm prints, and analyzing their fortunes. A lot of friends jumped out, looking at the past, looking at personality, looking at details, and predicting their future. The plot is changing at any time, every step is unthinkable, and the next one is even more tortuous and bizarre.
Third, because the audience does not want the movie to end there. A movie is an illusion, and at the same time it is an illusion that the audience thinks it is real. When the audience walked out of the cinema, they still didn't want to wake up, and didn't want to see the illusion of the movie be broken. Just as the audience does not want to know that the actors are not similar to the characters, people have the naive expectation that they do not want to be deceived, hoping that the love on the screen is true, and it is still true in reality. When the actors and actresses on the screen come together, the audience will feel happy.
The enthusiasm of the actors’ love is often exaggerated into the greatness of the plot in the movie. People simply associate the magical chemical power between the characters with the actors themselves. This kind of anticipation itself is doomed to the failure of the "screen couple love incident": no one can love like a movie. The movie is the essence after editing. Those trivial details of life have been edited out. Hollywood movies are wishful thinking about love myths. The reality itself is blurred. In the movie, you can blow the house to rags with a knife and a gun, and then hold on to the other party and make love passionately in the ruins. The reality is that when shooting this scene, Brad Pitt's leg was scratched by sawdust. This means that he may not be as cool as he saw in the movie.
In the event itself of celebrity couples (especially screen couples), we see ubiquitous watching and being watched all the time. The viewer is pervasive. The developed media has acted as people's curious eyes. In modern society, the person being watched can never hide. Even hiding in the poor areas of Paris, or hiding in the deserts of Africa. At the same time, the posture being watched also seemed ambiguous. The celebrities who were watched expressed their distress and told that they were persecuted by the media and that they had lost their original lives. But at the same time they were still together glamorously, performing their well-received scenes of happiness. They denied it ceaselessly, and then the evidence showed that the truth was denied by them. This turned everything into a game of welcoming and refusing. The sincerity that love needs most is wiped out. The viewer's mentality is also very complicated. They want them to be together, but they also want them not to be together. They need to see them together in order to satisfy the desire to peek, and at the same time they need to see that they are in various situations and not going well, satisfying the sour grape mentality of ordinary people. Let's put it this way, both happy to see it happen, but also gloating.
What makes them together? Is it your own love, or the strong expectations of the audience? Do they want to be seen or not? Is their high-profile love a need for expression from the heart or a need for self-hype? Is it cool to be loved or viewed? Thinking along this line of thought, we can't help but think of an old proposition: Is the movie imitating reality, or is reality imitating film? Such discussions are fruitless and endless at the same time.
This is why we are still obsessed with watching their news. Or, we can use these two sentences to make a conclusion:
Godard said: "Movies are twenty-four frames of truth per second."
Fassbinder said: "Movies are twenty-five frames of lies per second. "
