The original work has occupied a deep-rooted position in the hearts of readers. How to please people, how to extract the essence of the original work, and how to express the author's thoughts is a difficult process, so many people recreate on the basis of the original work. Adapted on the basis of easy imaging, the failure of Traveler and Veronica lies in the storytelling of quick success, and loses the rhythm and charm of the original work. This is not the case with Lovely Bones. Although the original work has still been changed a lot, it has interpreted the original work from another angle. Moreover, as the original work that cannot be adapted to the top of the movie list, it can be described as a successful adaptation.
Peter Jackson called us such a warm film after completing his childhood dream of remaking King Kong. Maybe Jackson likes huge stories too much, so there are many movie elements contained in his lovely bones, suspenseful murder, romantic first love, and unbroken soul. , a warm family, and of course the fantasy world that Jackson and his Weta are best at. The mix and match of many elements did not cause confusion, but increased the viewing value of the film.
Suspenseful Murder
"My name is Salmon, like the fish. First name, Susie. I was fourteen years old when I was murdered on December 6th, 1973. I wasn't gone. I was alive in my own perfect world. But in my heart, I knew it wasn't perfect. My murderer still haunted me. My father had the pieces but he couldn't make them fit. I waited for justice but justice did not come."
Susie said this shortly after the film started . So the film has abandoned the suspense, and the better effect is to make the audience worry about the safety of this brave, witty, cute and beautiful girl in front of the screen all the time. At the same time, Susie's running when escaping, Jake's attack in the field and other clips have created a suspenseful and even terrifying effect. The portrayal of the murderer Harvey is also relatively successful. The film uses many scenes to explain the meticulousness of Harvey's actions and the ruthlessness of the murder. The image of a good man in front of him is really eye-catching to test a perverted killer.
romantic first love
Susie is a fourteen-year-old girl, and she has a crush on a boy. She was overjoyed by the boy's initiative, but it didn't happen in time. The most cherished thing in first love, Susie could not let go of the agreement between the two, and the love she had always longed for ended in such a tragedy. At the moment when she finally chose to look forward, Susie still did not forget this relationship, and fulfilled her wish through the girl who could channel. This passage is very youthful. After the trial screening, the film did not get enough praise, and because the positioning of the film was not clear enough, there was no way to promote it. The latest news is that the film's distribution company has decided that the main audience of the film will be pro-spring girls when it is released, so watching the camera is not sweeping the boy's body once, although there is no large-scale erotic scene, it is still full of youthful restlessness. It is also a good idea for hormones to change direction in order to make a breakthrough at the box office at the moment when Dian Ying Ma stumbles.
Warm family
of fourteen Susie is at the pro-spring period, not like my mother naive hat, like playing with the camera ideal complete knowledge map their own photographers, some family quarrel noisy, but who is still enjoyable for a family. In order to save her brother, Susie was able to rampage on the road and sent her brother to the hospital for rescue. At first, her mother could not bear the pain of losing her daughter and chose to leave, but in the end she chose to return to soothe the injured hearts of the whole family. Her father and sister insisted on finding the real murderer for her. This is a family full of love, and this love is the most unbearable for Susie to lose, so she wanders outside the gates of heaven. The two Oscar-level actors, Mark Wahlberg and Rachel Weisz, have all become Saoirse Ronan's green leaves. I don't know who said that Wahlberg is more and more like the Monkey King. So every time I see him in the future, such a sentence will emerge, 囧. ..Saoirse Ronan successfully performed a child who was loved and hated in Atonement. This time, he was still shining brightly. Hollywood has never been short of child stars. Children who are only fifteen years old are really promising.
dazzling stunt
Susie didn't go directly to heaven, because in our words, it's probably the fate of the world, so she stopped at The In-Between, the intersection of earth and heaven. This is a beautiful world, not only a paradise-like wonderland but also everything that happens on earth can be seen here. I think the reason why this novel was rated as the least likely to be adapted into a movie is the creation of this The In-Between. Everyone was relieved when the trailer came out, because it's true that The In-Between created by Peter Jackson and his Weta is beautiful. The magnified drifting bottle (did that stuff change its name...), the big tree that symbolizes eternal beauty, and the flowers blooming on the lake are so beautiful, they are even a bit overwhelming. I believe that Jack Xu must have put a lot of thought into this. Things in the world will be perfected with the progress of the plot. The Lord of the Rings team is really not built.
let it be and let it go
Jackson is really artistic this time, even a bit too literary, so the overall rhythm is slow. I also understand why a certain sister would wake up after she fell asleep to heaven in the movie theater. The
literary and artistic aspects are also reflected in the theme of the movie. The theme of this movie is full of Zen. To sum it up, it should be let it be and let it go. When Susie saw her father was seriously injured and the family broke up for the murder, she decided to face the things she had been avoiding and the fact that she had died. Only the brave let it be can get rid of the pain, and then let it go can start a new life. It's Susie's problem, and it's her family's problem on another level. Things are irreversible, life needs to continue, learn to face, learn to let go, what many people lack is this courage.
A very clean movie, the visual effects are very well done.
The sky, wheat fields, houses, rivers, mountains and rivers, all the pictures
you can see are the colors of your dreams.
Clear blue, beautiful yellow,
everything is so beautiful and attractive.
At this time, it tells a helpless story - everyone will die.
A tenacious father—a daughter who died unexpectedly, still obsessed with chasing the clues he believes in;
a mother who escaped—faced with great pain, some people choose to escape to forget the beauty of the past;
a modern grandmother—he Like you, you like him, why not kiss?
A lovely little brother - he can sense her presence, between the two worlds.
A wise younger sister - under her baby fat exterior, she hides wisdom and courage that penetrates everything;
a pure first love - a girl's last dream is not revenge, not looking forward to rebirth, but the kiss of the first love of youth;
a A lifelong bond - a girl with yin and yang eyes, when she looks back, is destined to be involved in this life and this life.
A loli control - likes little girls, kills a lot of little girls, and finally dies.
The ending of the ending, there is no happy people who are brought to justice, and there is no close call to find the body. Those who are in pain let go of their pain, and those who hate let go. This is the most beautiful part of the movie.
Movie the most -
the most difficult: the movie through the eyes of Susie's, was found killed one by one girl, the youngest 6 years old;
most nervous: Susie's sister went to Loli control uncle home to find evidence, just a few minutes, Makes spectators clench their fists and twitch;
most moving: Susie says "kiss me" to Ray.
At the end of the movie, I can't forget the beautiful and gorgeous pictures for a long time, and I can't forget the girl's last release for a long time.
"You're so beautiful, Susie Salmon"
"I'm starting to get used to seeing things around me, getting used to things happening without me being involved..."
"We are not that kind of people, the kind of people who have suffered disasters but have no reason to find them." However, life is often not as pleasant as we imagined, but we often see good people suffering many disasters and outsiders getting away with it. So we blame others and say that God is unfair. After watching the movie "Lovely Bones", you may have other ideas.
The film is based on the best-selling book of the same name by American author Alice Seabold. The film adapted from the best-selling novel has no risk in investment and no suspense in capturing the audience's scenes. First, it will have a perfect story, and secondly, the literary performance of the lines permeates the vastness and sensibility that ordinary movies cannot match. . Fantastic films in recent years are all based on best-sellers, such as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which won multiple Oscars in 2009.
The good news is that "The Lovely Bones" doesn't spoil the original book -- at least not terribly. The main line of the movie is also based on the narrative style of the original book, tracing the ins and outs of the story in the tone of the 14-girl Susie. This Susie is played by Saoirse Ronan, the hottest child star in recent years. Last time, she also participated in the movie "Atonement", which was adapted from the best-selling book, but she only played a supporting role. And "King Kong" star Peter Jackson.
The movie explained that this was a tragedy at the very beginning, but it also captured the audience's "why is this" exploratory psychology. The audience must see the criminals brought to justice before they are willing to let go. This criminal who has maimed countless girls is really a veteran, and when the police come to question, he remains calm and nonchalant. And our most sympathetic protagonist, Susie, is a lively and cute girl with a bit of a rebellious personality. She is in the Mood for Love and longs for her dream of becoming a photographer when she grows up. Her young first love is about to make her debut, and her first kiss will also be drawn. Kick off. However, she was not like a normal teenage girl who was murdered before she could make an appointment in the future, on December 6, 1973. The most painful thing in the world is this, which should be regarded as the biggest "cup" in life. Fortunately, she was not taken to hell by "black and white impermanence", nor did she drink Mengpo soup, and immediately set foot on the beautiful road to heaven after her death.
Such a fantastic world is not heaven. Susie met another girl with the same fate, Hawley, in the nether realm. Hawley told her that heaven is far beyond human imagination. There is no cornfield that symbolizes crime and mutilation. No memory, no cemetery. And Susie did not forget the tragic fate of her untimely death. She was not reconciled. She even saw her family, especially her father, immersed in the unfortunate shadow of her daughter for a long time.
The beautiful picture reveals a magnificent or ethereal texture, accompanied by light music and minuet. In addition to the gorgeous special effects in the film, the back part of the film also revealed the dead in the underworld, that is, the remains of the girls who were also mutilated, and even played back the safe where Susie's own body was dismembered. A terrifying atmosphere arises spontaneously, in sharp contrast to the previous beauty. Although the process and details of the crime are deliberately omitted, viewers who are not short on imagination can imagine what a horrific scene would have been. Crime is a supplement to fantasy and a sublimation of the theme, and horror is a reasonable footnote to justice. This is also the integrity of a movie.
The plot is unfolding tensely, and of course the audience wants to "punish evil and promote good", so the bad guys can't go unpunished. At this time, Susie's father and sister both correctly guessed the murderer. Sister Lindsey even risked her life to win the criminal's crime diary picture book. The director will undoubtedly push the tense and suspenseful atmosphere to a commanding height. The ending of the film was unsatisfactory. The suspenseful waves only lasted for about 10 minutes, and the audience could not get enough of the play. The "girl killer" also absconded, and the clumsy police couldn't avenge the people. Fortunately, God has eyes, and the criminal accidentally fell off a cliff and died, which seems to have fulfilled a Chinese saying, "You can't live by doing your own sins."
This is a big-budget movie that combines elements of suspense, crime, fantasy, youth, etc. Peter Jackson's mastery of special effects is well-deserved, and the reproduction of magical realism is more commonplace, and he is also good at rendering rich on-set atmosphere. Humorous and easy, sometimes heavy and terrifying, and sometimes tear-jerking, I really want to lead the audience by the nose. The theme of the film is also thought-provoking, should we let go of the painful past? What Susie's family needs to do is not only to seek revenge, but also to revive their lives. Susie let go of human affairs at the end, not entangled in painful memories, but also largely based on the theme of "everything has to be thought out". In the preface of the original novel, the author also revealed her experience of being violated when she was young, which is also the theme of her discussion. The so-called human love should transcend the hatred of crime.
Susie's first kiss came to fruition in the final moments of heaven, and the family cheered up from their grief and entered a normal life trajectory. It can be said that everyone is happy. These beautiful new signs are called "cute bones".
