The reputation of French comedy films has been on the rivers and lakes for a long time, and the film "Escape from a Tiger's Mouth" alone can experience that unique comedy charm. , mostly derived from the fine tradition of French cinema - on the basis of maintaining the artistic beauty of the film, the whole film is full of joy with a slightly exaggerated funny humor. This humorous style rooted in the national cultural characteristics exists in Molière's plays hundreds of years ago, and also exists in the lighthearted works of the French today. From "Escape from the Tiger's Mouth" in those years, to "The Gallic Hero" in recent years, to "Tracking the Long-tailed Leopard Matthew", all of them are like this. In the theater, the audience can burst out laughing or knowing smile without destroying the three views. At the same time, when they walk out of the movie theater, they seem to have a little more hope in life. As Lu Xun said, comedy is to destroy "worthless" things for others to see, but the important thing is that what is left in the end is the valuable "goodness and goodness" that the public generally agrees and accepts.
"Tracking Matthew the Long-tailed Leopard" continues the tradition of three good French comedy films (good-looking, funny, and fun), with a lot of weirdness and constant jokes. It is both warm and spoofed. The exaggerated technique tells a story of animal protection. While criticizing the perverted psychology of the careerists, it also makes the dreams of the rich second generation and the diaosi come true. The film beat the Hollywood blockbuster released at the same time in France to become the French box office champion in 2012.
The format of the story is simple, journalist Dan travels alone to the tropical jungles of Barombi to film the scoop. In order to repay the debt and prove to his adopted children that he was telling the truth, the local Babido went on an adventure in the jungle together, and finally found the long-tailed leopard's nest and the long-tailed leopard eggs. In order to rejuvenate himself, the botanist He Maosong took the long-tailed leopard eggs at all costs. Babido and Dan, together with the local garrison General Bouchero, successfully rescued the long-tailed leopard eggs. In the end, Babido proved to the children that he was not a liar, and Dan also proved to his father and the TV station that he was a real news hero. In the play, urban white-collar workers and clumsy guides team up to explore, plus a villain who will eventually be tricked to the end, setting the standard "good, bad and ugly" roles, "searching for magical animals" and "searching for rejuvenation." The two threads of "Flower" are intertwined and go hand in hand, forming the overall framework of the story narrative. The combination of down-and-out journalists, sly villagers, and mad scientists and their collision and friction form the biggest source of jokes in the film.
"Tracking the Long-tailed Leopard Matthew" fictionalized a South American country "Balumbia", and also fictionalized a cute fetish "Masubilami". It was first created by Belgian cartoonist André Frangan, which combines the images of cheetahs and koalas, and has been in existence for more than 60 years. Alan Sherpa brought it to the screen for the first time, using the most advanced CG special effects to generate, it has a furry body, a chubby face, flickering eyes and a very long tail, every move is quite interesting , "Moe" is a mess. Its appearance in the film satiated the audience's appetite, and it didn't show up until halfway through the film, causing a lot of exclamations. In the film, it is not the main source of jokes, but more of a role in acting cute and magical, making female and child audiences excited. But its existence objectively produces a strong interaction with the protagonist, thus pushing the key plot into a new stage. As a legendary mythical beast, in the film it became the focus of people from all walks of life: journalists use it to increase the ratings of TV shows, guides use it to wash off their reputation as liars, and botanists use it to use It came to find the flower of rejuvenation. Among them, reporters and guides are the protectors of the long-tailed leopard, while the botanists are bent on subduing it, and the struggle between the two camps for it becomes the place of dramatic conflict. In order to highlight the importance of the long-tailed leopard, the film also designed the existence of the Mayans. They told reporters and guides that the long-tailed leopard is an important species to preserve ecological balance. Once lost, the volcano will erupt and humans will perish. Therefore, the film The long-tailed leopard became the undisputed centerpiece.
In the film, the roles of the two protagonists and the villain are very simple and the levels are very simple. Journalists who gained a reputation for their mediocrity early in their careers with a false story were eventually discovered and suffered a crisis of confidence. Due to the lack of life skills, the guide had to deceive tourists to support himself and his adopted children, but he was once regarded as a liar because of the story of the long-tailed leopard. The botanist is obsessed with plant research, but inadvertently has the experience of "returning spring" due to the unique orchid brought by the long-tailed leopard. He has an almost evil pursuit of restoring youth and has become a disgusting villain. From beginning to end, they are just persistently accomplishing their goals: one is for exclusive news, one is to prove that they are not liars, and the other is unwilling to grow old and achieve nothing. And the persuasive object that they obtained their wish all fell on a very cute long-tailed leopard. In this dramatic and logical way, the film tells a very interesting story, and its use of exaggeration creates a comical effect.
In addition, the supporting role in the film also played an important role in the production of joy. The general Bouchereau, who always regarded Celine Dion as a goddess, was unremarkable and even a bit annoying at the beginning. The coquettish super imitation show successfully achieved a big counter-attack, which made the audience keep laughing and remember this mustache muscle man in a sexy little golden dress, and sighed that the dictator general was just a otaku with a goddess. . Others, such as the tall and strong Baya man with a shy voice, and the fat man who used electric shocks to deal with people at every turn, also naturally added a lot of unexpected jokes to the originally simple story. Of course, the most special is the group of human animals, the parrot Qiqi, who teamed up with the little girl to play tricks for money, and the weasel who helped the guide steal the prison key and bargained with him, and was angry because the guide did not keep his promise. Spraying his face with saliva and muddy horses, their stupid or cunning or cute or pitiful images are an important source of the film's appeal.
"Tracking Matthew the Long-Tailed Leopard" is an orthodox comedy suitable for all ages. It is not a satirical comedy with a realistic theme, but a magical comedy that combines elements of fairy tales. The nonsensical style is pushed to the extreme, allowing the audience to feel this pure joy in a relaxed state, putting aside all constraints. Its beautiful pictures, imagination, humor, and kindness express the praise of the truth, goodness and beauty in life.
