Unexpectedly, Meryl Streep would be able to win the Golden Globe heroine with "The Devil Wearing Prada"-of course, she did a very good role in this role, without any traces of pretentiousness.
There is nothing surprising about the content of this film. The little man stepped into the upper strata and finally abandoned the material temptation for his conscience. Two selling points: gorgeous luxury goods, conflict between small subordinates and big bosses. The former satisfies the curiosity of civilians, and the latter easily resonates among wage earners. Therefore, it is normal to be able to sell big, and it is not surprising at all.
A classic sentence: She said that you are the one who disappointed her the most among all the secretaries, so you must have done something right.
In the film, when the "devil head" confided her feelings to the little secretary with a haggard face, she looked very old, and the Streep performance was impressive. Take a closer look, the eyeshadow has a fleshy red color and has a demon image. It is very unique and the effect is really different.
At the beginning of the film, Cinderella was dissatisfied because of the two belts that seemed to be indistinguishable from each other, and then triggered a series of fashion history traces to the demon boss. At that time, I thought that this movie is probably like a Japanese manga, taking a field to the extreme, and then overturning people's traditional impression that "the obsession with luxury goods is a material fool." Then, let the little Cinderella never take it seriously and turn into a luxury art master, making a generation of great achievements.
But in fact, there are no luxuries in the art kingdom, no sacred creation sublimation, little Cinderella is an alternative to that intriguing world, smarter than most people, and has the potential to rise from the stupid people who are obsessed with luxury goods. Become a villain who creates luxury fashion. However, as a representative of the good children of the common people, she finally left in order to maintain her inner freedom and see through the hypocrisy. ——So, in the end, advocating luxury is still the patent of stupid people, and good people are proud of their sloppy clothes, which satisfies the fragile psychology of civilian audiences. The director and the audience were all overjoyed.
Therefore, it is strange that such a film is unsuccessful.
