You can add my public account [Movie Prodigal Son] to discuss
Not to sell anything, I am talking about the fourth part of the series: "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".
As we all know, "Harry Potter" by J.K. Rowling has a total of 7 novels in its original biography, which was then adapted into 8 movies by Warner, which is internationally renowned. 450 million book sales, 7.8 billion gross box office... a magnificent and complete magical world, this is the halo of Harry Potter.
In order to select the most incisive one from the most successful popular series at the beginning of the 21st century , I believe that in addition to the first book "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", it is necessary to connect the past and the next and open the magical world. "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" on the "adult" side.
The reason why this prodigal son recommended this 2005 old movie at this moment is basically the same as the reason why the movie itself dominates the entire series. Let's sort it out.
How to enter the darkness from Taoyuan
In the previous three movies, no matter how bad Harry Potter's conditions are, he can always win—or at least a temporary victory—no surprises. And we are also in rejoicing, experiencing the Hogwarts style, appreciating the fun of magic, and imagining that one day we will also get rid of the Muggle identity, go to the 9th station of a certain transit station, and start our own legend.
Yes, before "Goblet of Fire". Although tragedies and shadows appear from time to time, the overall tone is still comfortable and friendly. It feels like a pure children's book or movie, but the imagination in it is full of infectious power, so that adults can't stop the fantasy, so innocence is added, and in my mind, I return to my childhood with joy.
Therefore, Harry Potter and his readers during this period are like living in a paradise, everything is so beautiful. Even if there are troublemakers like Malfoy, it will not affect the mood for a few minutes at all. With a little effort, attention, friendship, and magic are all at your fingertips. We all know that things will not go on like this, because almost all of us come here.
A teenager who doesn't understand him will grow up one day, and the world is so big that he bends in fright.
Harry Potter—the only child who escaped under the Death Curse, finally had to face his fate—whether he was ready or not. This is the practical significance of Goblet of Fire. When we grow up and meet the responsibilities, pressure from all sides never cares whether we are ready or not.
When an infectious disease affects us, who can say that he is prepared?
There will always be someone who goes first, shoulders the responsibilities of others, and then confronts them bravely.
In "Goblet of Fire," Malfoy said something quite right. This is the last "timely pleasure" of magical beings. Whether it's Quidditch or the tri-wizard battle, it's all about singing and dancing under the cover of terror. But people can't help it. The Dark Lord is waiting for an opportunity in secret, and people's life must go on.
Therefore, it’s not that there is no way to enter the darkness from Taoyuan, it is that no matter what method, it is the same stumble. The best of the three magic schools fell one by one in the face of difficulties, and even Cedric Diggory would never stand up. But the reality is so cruel: before you face it, you can't imagine its power; when you face it, any preparation seems futile. We people have nothing but courage.
Youth is always too late
Of course, growth is not only heavy and costly, but also youth. The auditorium of Hogwarts Castle is the most beautiful dance venue in the history of film. The magicians were in pairs, under the light of the hanging candles, whistling and talking to each other. This is an extraordinary and extraordinary scene, let us see, there is always a regret that we can't try the dance skills.
In every girl's heart, there is a dancing elf. This sentence is not only talking about Hermione, but also pointing out: the teenagers are growing up. Although they are not mature yet, their feelings will not lie. Hermione met the Quidditch MVP who knew how to appreciate him, Ron awkwardly expressed his thoughts about Hermione, Harry met Qiu Zhang, but after all, they just met together.
This kind of youth is bound to be accompanied by misses, but misses are also sweet.
If someone with a mind reader sits in the theater and overhears the voices of people when he sees it, he will surely discover many secrets that have been in the dust for many years. Most of these secrets are sour and sweet. This is the taste of youth, but a pity, not the only taste of youth. In the competition and ignorance, the teenagers sprinted toward the unknown front, but they didn't realize that the god of death had already started to be with him.
The double helix of tragedy and empathy
The reason why "Goblet of Fire" is called the best in the series is that it breaks away from the previous successful routines and overthrows everything we think will not change. At the same time, the seriousness of this story is in line with the psychology of audience readers who have grown up with this book, this world, and this series of movies.
Harry did not win in the end, Cedric died, Ministry of Magic officials appeared one by one, Death Eaters surfaced, Voldemort was finally resurrected-the fragile magical world was precarious, the peaceful peach and youth before, all of a sudden Become an untimely memory.
The sky changes color, and my colleagues have different paths.
Sirius was the greatest light in Harry during this period. The previous Mad-Eye Moody was fake and his help was fake. The trick of "Wormtail" directly led to the birth of tragedy.
What will tragedy bring? fear.
During this period, we ordinary people should be able to appreciate this well. Fear and anxiety will spread, covering everyone's head in silence. If we also have a Dark Lord in the real world, it is an infectious disease. It’s just my hope that we don’t be afraid to mention it, don’t say "you know who", face the status quo and take care of ourselves, that is the right way.
In the movie, Cedric died in Wormtail's hands.
This is the core tragedy of Goblet of Fire. A promising young man died in the hands of a coward crushed by fear, and there was nothing that people could do. This opened up the magical world of Harry Potter that was getting darker and more desolate. But there was also hope left: Harry was not dead.
The child did not lose. He symbolizes hope.
In the end, Dumbledore ignored the warning from the Ministry of Magic and resolutely notified all the staff of the return of Voldemort. His last speech told us: Fear is an emotion that everyone has, but sympathy, indignation and courage are also human empathy.
Tragedy brings fear, and it will inevitably inspire courage. come on!
