The dark horse of the awards season

This year's Oscar winners are popular, and the level is average. As a Chinese audience who "has been a difficult time in the ocean", if they are conquered by Oscar's "Twelve Years as a Slave", it would be a bit hypocritical: the black slaves of the 19th century can fill their stomachs at any rate, and there are still female slaves throwing in their arms at night, and even You can play the violin to make extra money. Think about it, what life does Shaanxi black brick kiln slave workers live in in the 21st century?

The heroine of "Blue Jasmine" reported her husband's rebellion and desperation. The whole film's irony of being wealthy is embarrassing. It is not so much the American version of "Midnight Cock", but it is because family members continue to break the news. , Woody Allen, who has been plagued by sex scandals for many years, launches revenge on those who destroy family harmony. Lu Xun ranked second in terms of meanness and viciousness, and no one dared to rank first. And Lu Xun's heaviness and grandeur are based on the compassion that Woody Allen lacks in "the kind of love, so it is also harsh".

The anti-violent "Natural Murderer" (1994) has made many young audiences addicted to violence, and aimed to pinpoint Wall Street's shameless and money-oriented "Wolf of Wall Street". They encountered the same predicament, one after another with sex parties and drug orgasms. Seriously weakened the critical power of the film. There is no human struggle and introspection in the lens, only the male protagonist's twisted limbs after abusing drugs.

"Lincoln Lawyer" and "Killer Joe" prove the strength of Matthew McConaughey. He has an innate sense of humor and is suitable for playing complex roles that are both good and evil. The dark horse for the awards season is of course "Dallas Buyers Club" starring Matthew McConaughey. The film puts forward a serious subject: If you are dying of illness, are you resigning to fate or fighting? When the country is helpless, do individuals have the right to save themselves?

In order to fit the spine-like appearance of the AIDS patient, Matthew lost more than 30 kilograms crazy. The sexy buttock in "Magic Mike" became an awl that can pierce a balloon. Male second Jared Leto Simply fast for a month and lose 28 catties. What is professional ethics and self-cultivation of an actor? "One Hunger" starred in those fat and chubby actors, do you feel ashamed to see such dedicated colleagues?

A "death package" composed of cocaine, alcohol, and methamphetamine, and a sex life without safety measures, ruined Ron's health. When he was diagnosed with the late stage of AIDS and only 30 days to live, Ron drew his gun and looked around, tears raining down. In the United States in the 1980s, AIDS patients were discriminated against. Ron was not only fighting against illness, but also a hostile social atmosphere. As a dead horse as a living horse doctor, he began to study the latest developments in the treatment of AIDS in various countries around the world.

Glaxo Wellcome's AZT, which was in the trial phase, was the only legal anti-AIDS drug approved by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) at the time. It had serious side effects and could not benefit every patient. Ron dressed in disguise, smuggled anti-AIDS drugs to Mexico, Japan and other countries, and used the money he earned to maintain his huge treatment costs, forming a "Dallas Buyers Club." This life-saving action for everyone and everyone for me immediately made him a thorn in the eye of the FDA and the Internal Revenue Service.

Ron has actually become an expert on the latest information on anti-AIDS drugs. He is very disgusted with the doctors of the cadaveric vegetarian meal: "Do you think I am your white rat? Do I look like a rodent? You said I will die within 30 days. , A fucking year has passed, who is standing in front of you?"

Bohemian, penitent, self-help, self-esteem, Matthew McConaughey explained Ron's fragility and toughness very well. One hero has three gangs. Jared Leto plays Ron’s transvestite patient. Behind the romantic and shocking world, the characters’ desires, pain and fear are revealed in their gestures, and their acting skills are amazing; from watching to proactively lending a helping hand, Jennifer The female doctor played by Garner represents the conscience of the American medical community and also symbolizes the long process of indifference to sympathy and support for the life-saving group like the "buyer club".

Ron won the lawsuit with the FDA. On September 12, 1992, he quietly passed away 7 years after being sentenced to death by a doctor. The last shot of the film is Ron participating in a cowboy contest. Ron on the back of the cow is itself a battle song of life.

In the Oscars on March 2, the dark horse of "Dallas Buyers Club" may have won more in addition to performance awards. (Media manuscript)
