Personally, I think this "Person of the Year" is still pretty good. Although the whole background of the story can be summed up in clichés, the specific plot and the performance of the actors still left a deep impression on me.
It's been a long time since I saw a Robin Williams movie, and it looks like it's not old. A comedian who can stand on his heels in Hollywood always has two brushes. Jim Carrey is said to have spent dozens of minutes practicing making faces in the mirror every day, and then he has an amazing performance in Jerry in disguise; Ben Stiller is more comprehensive, but if he plays a hapless and infatuated little character, he always It makes people feel inexplicably appropriate; Rob Schneider suddenly became popular through "The Straight Dancing Boy", and his expressionless appearance is very suitable for the plot of the lost horse; as for Steve Martin, playing a lame narcissistic character is also Familiar with the road. Compared to them, Robin Williams' films always give people a feeling of laughter and warmth, as many people say - "there are tears in laughter".
Favorite Robin Williams movie is Jack's "Home with Jack", which tells the story of a child who grows and ages at four times the rate of ordinary people, the story of a shooting star. To this day, I still remember a somewhat bald middle-aged Robin Williams carrying a backpack and stepping on the curb to entertain himself. Although the big directors Coppola and Robin Williams did not bring high box office for this film, it is a classic tearful comedy.
Robin Williams is a genius, a gifted actor, and witty sentences come out of his mouth. In fact, in "Good Morning Vietnam", he has already emerged. However, genius is not the same as master. Compared with other people, the young Robin Williams has an unforgettable past, indulging in alcohol and unable to extricate himself. However, just like his movies, he stood up tenaciously, faced his past honestly, and turned his life into a comedy of tears.
There are many successful actors, but not all of them are geniuses. Just like Gene Kelly, the golden man who has dreamed of Oscar countless times has always been unable to do so. I think Gene Kelly is a genius in comedy, but not an actor. For the golden man in his mind, he once gave up comedy and turned to films such as "The Truman World" and "Beautiful Mind: Shining Inner Light", but none of them had the expected success. So much so that I have to go back to "God is Crazy" again. Like Johnny Depp, he can be the master of Tim Burton's lonely fantasy world, but he can't always be fully recognized by mainstream audiences, so the success of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series may be even more bitter for him. Irony (fortunately he didn't get an Oscar for it). Robin Williams never seems to worry too much about his image in the eyes of the audience, I like his boldness in Dead Poets Society, and the fearlessness in Jumanji, I like it even more, he sees With a sly but honest smile, his gushing but well-meaning jokes.
The genius who conquers himself is the master.
