After watching the film, I got two words, one is "feelings" and the other is "nostalgia".
All arts and crafts require strong spiritual support, not only to endure loneliness and keep pace with the times, but also to keep walking; not to be lonely and addicted, but to be tenacious and calm in the face of doubts and shocks. Empathy is a very polite word. Happy ending is the beautiful yearning of the general public. If it is true, most people still choose to kill themselves by swallowing a gun. If everyone is a brave man, then there is no such thing as applause.
After the show, most of the audience remained in their seats. There is moving, but not because of moving, nostalgia and moving are two different things. Nostalgia is the form, and moving is the heart. Nostalgia is the past tense of the present, a kind of spiritual consolation, a nostalgia for the beauty of the past, but at that time, we were not moved. This emotion needs to be exported, expressed, and even vented, but not consumed and reshaped.
In terms of look and feel, the narrative is simple and complete, the pictures are accurate and smooth, and the music is just right and contagious... The reason is very simple, the re-enactment of classics will never let you lose points. , but not the slightest. Comforting a classic does not make it a classic, and a 100% imitation is not the real thing after all. We love old things and old things that have been washed away with time. It is the memories and shared experiences it leaves us, not just the appearance itself.
The coincidence is that what Dujardin calls "different" is different from most of the films we see now, at least in form. This reminded me of Avatar at one point, and while Avatar was forward looking, The Artist didn't bring that kind of industrial advancement.
