For Guillaume Canet, the form of cooperation with his wife Marion Cotillard, from the "Dare to Guess" game of "Two Little No Guess" to form a bond and walk hand in hand, to the end of the first marriage in reality, and then the song Dia officially took him into his arms until the completion of the new film "Little White Lies" in 2010, which performed the "Husband Singing and Wife Accompanying" scene directed by Cotillard behind the scenes. This way, it seems that it is a traditional and warm work outside the painting of "The Gifted and Beautiful".
"Little White Lies" is called "Little White Lies" in foreign language, and its central theme is indeed like the combination of these three smooth phrases. Hiking harmlessly, but often will fall off the mask in the sudden shock of Ji Ji Gu Ying, disguise fatigue as the selfishness and fragility of the canoe, moor on the shoal that everyone has long known, heal together, and wait for the tide to bestow. new buoyancy.
The story opens with a fiery party, a rush of freedom, and a sudden car accident that pushes a person into an intensive care unit and sends a group of people to a vacation home far from Paris. Obviously, this is the opposite and objective life flow. Once you go through it, you will no longer doubt it, but you should think about its back. The ultimate is the source of wonderful stories, and it is also the bellows of sadness, and these sad and happy stories always revolve around all human beings who strive to survive but forget to live.
In fact, in the play, when a group of people discussed how to deal with this sudden change, I also voted for the majority with my limited "nonsense" attitude. Imagining that Ludo has a long enough lifeline to go on, he decides to deceive himself, and at the same time, he has the selfish idea that he should not blindly sacrifice his vacation for this, and finds a high-sounding excuse to have a doctor to take care of, enter the intensive care unit, maybe no visits, etc. ...as Max said. And after such a result was finalized, in the conflict between everyone's instinctive guilt and self-relief, a 15-day spiritual wasteland was ploughed, which corresponds to these fifteen years of friendship through thick and thin.
I think so, Ludo's car accident affected his group of buddies and sisters who were blessed and should have been in trouble at the same time, at least quietly changed their attitude towards life, although everyone Trying to hide everything as usual. It's just that some of them seemed calm, while others had no choice but to go into a dynamism, and then saw each other and themselves clearly in the relief of the final farewell.
Among them, Cotillard, who plays Marie, is at the forefront of the torrent, and she is weakly connected with Ludo's life and death, and also opens a small window for other people and spectators in the play to find out about Ludo's situation. From free and selfish love to uneasy vows, Marie traces her love with Ludo, recalls the past when she entered the Indians, cleans up the ruthless and unintentional art lifestyle, and breeds a new life that leads her to face up to the face again. new life to life. Obviously, she has added inconspicuous selfishness and lies into her view of love with a stand that represents a modern free woman. If there is no alarm, whether it is sloppy or avant-garde, she may keep walking in the direction of losing herself. on the way. The ending was that she was saved, and that was the effect of the Ludo incident. I will also say that Cotillard's touching embellishments and Nonghua's tranquility add to the brilliance of the whole drama.
The second most serious mutation can be seen as a subtle emotional distress between Vincent and Max. It is easy to imagine that the original intention of Vincent's sudden revealing of his heart may have come from Ludo's changes. Life is short and things are impermanent. It is to enjoy the moment and cherish the moment. Therefore, as a married Vincent, he chose to confess like his beloved good friend Max, but this courage did not include the "official coming out" gay declaration. The scene was still fresh in his memory, and he asked Max to keep it for him. secret. And then, about the bits and pieces between the two buddies, it happens to be a wonderful interpretation of "self-deception" and "white lies". A doomed rejection hurts their unspeakable self-esteem, and a self-righteous insult hurts the bottom line of their moral disposition. Therefore, the two have ambiguous eyes, fiery ties, and incomparable disgust time and time again. Of course, the charm of the actors themselves should also be mentioned. The French actor François Crucey who plays Max looks like Dustin Hoffman, and he has a lot of flavor. And Benoit Majim, who plays Vincent, is really hardworking, and every smile and every smile has the appearance of a melancholy little brother who was hurt. There is a little muscle, which is also powerful. Vincent who wore Mo Chao and all black at the funeral was very eye-catching. You can imagine why Binoche was so moved.
Having said that, I seem to have told their stories as hard as a rock, which is not the case at all, you have to experience it yourself, this life is all in the action of experience, the story material is too vivid, and the two powerful factions The performance of the show has made the whole drama evaporate to a height that ethics and morality can't get involved in. In the last hug at the funeral, I felt that it was pure tolerance, acceptance and respect, without any ambivalence, otherwise, it would deviate from the meaning of self-examination. The significance of this lies in Vincent's claim when explaining homosexual vocabulary to his son in the play. Many things have their own reasons for their existence. Even if they cannot accept the imminent, at least they must have the awareness of respecting the individual. Thinking of the words left by a movie friend (Chili Shui) in the signature file-behind the serious words "awe of life", there is definitely a soft and vivid beautiful picture.
It's just a simple story of three people, which is not enough to explain the brilliance and humor of the whole play. Speaking of which, it is indeed a group play. More than a dozen people, including children, have indispensable roles, are placed in a clear structure, and are quite elegantly connected to form a beautiful group portrait artwork. The story is so fresh and kind, full of the breath of modern life, Eric's phone call for help after meeting netizens, and Antoine's procrastination of love using mobile phone text messages, all of which are faithfully recording the earth's rhythm at the same time. pulse.
In particular, I felt the deepest part of Dr. Masaru Emoto's experiments on emotions and thoughts (water experiments, rice experiments), and the explanation of the influence of words. That made me very excited. Miss Fiona in my family had instilled this story into every member of the family early on, and it was so sweet to hear it again. Of course, it's not called beauty, handsome guy, and smart boy. People are reborn, but there is one thing worth practicing without purpose. It will make people feel beautiful and pleasing words, so they will say less depressing words. Afterwards, Eric learned from Dr. Emoto in the living room, and when he cursed or praised the bottles, his cynical temperament that seemed to be indifferent, and through conflicting struggles from the other side, showed the instinctive long-cherished desire of human nature to long for stability and happiness. Of course, if you can experience more humorous fun, it will be a rare sharing experience.
Other characters, such as Jean-Louis, Max's wife, Vincent's wife, singer Franck who may have a result with Marie, Antoine's girlfriend Julia, Eric's girlfriend Lea, etc., all have a role in promoting the plot at the same time. , and the wonderful scenes that truly show themselves. After reading it, I can understand Vincent's wife's intention of telling her child to say "make love" to her husband, and she is saddened by the night chat between Vincent and Marie. She watches adult videos alone late at night and goes crazy on the beach. Ben tears and so on the stitching of the pace of life. As for Max's wife, she was shown as the hostess who leads the army. She has the unmistakable superpower of the robot, not only to appease Max's anxiety and mania, but also to manage the family's diet and daily life. And Julia simply interprets the little woman who loves the most, which is not easy at all, because what she shows is the scenery that can be seen everywhere nowadays. My knowledge of Lea can be said to be vague, but I want to put my hope in her. Her decisive departure from Eric, the meaningful glimpse at the final funeral, was perhaps a sadness bestowed by the most lucid realization that it was "too late." And Jean-Louis, the lamp holder who strives to protect the natural and simple emotions, does not need to repeat his differences. In the end, the mixture of his tears and the flying sand of his homeland is the most beautiful picture to pay homage to Ludo and all his regrets.
In general, the entire play uses the incomplete virtues of life as a reference to compare the similar or identical human weaknesses of all the characters themselves. Max has been brainwashed by the economic interests of doing business, and Eric is also going further and further in the emotional game that does not talk about "true love" lightly, but everyone has a fatal weakness, that is, under the established life model, half of the so-called middle class survives In the semi-high-quality environment of half of life, people seem to be intimate, but the sense of alienation, insecurity, and fear that are secret everywhere is becoming more and more serious. They are all afraid that the comfort they have will be suddenly broken, and they all yearn to have a mutation full of passion, but no one is no longer a fool and is willing to take responsibility. But the difference between movies and life is that fictional stories can truly look into the future, just like the touching of a collective embrace.
Perhaps, in this indulgent young age, there is a bit of a biting coolness in this play, as well as the loneliness of walking alone, like Ludo walking out of Pub, driving a motorcycle on the open and uninhibited land at dawn. His guidance and his departure seem to be preparing for us watching the movie. After the hustle and bustle of the movie company, I would imagine that such a troublesome life was originally lonely and lonely. If it weren't for this group of "friends and friends" by your side, I don't know how desolate it would be! However, when I changed positions to be your best friend, best friend, and buddy, my confidence was not enough. At some point, I must have hoped for you to be in dire straits, and pretended not to see you, turned around and left. So, I sincerely apologize!
