However, originally, the text must grow wildly without the author. Today's movie, which has been translated as "The Daydreamer", is of course not what it is.
Even so, I still need to repeat the summary of the story: Walter Mitty, the actor of the film, the production manager of "LIFE" magazine, works diligently and honestly; if it is characteristic, it is uncontrollable distraction. Indulge in the fantasy of being a hero. When the last issue of "LIFE" was released, he found that the negative of the cover photo sent by the photographer was missing. After various entanglements, he decided to follow the photographer's footsteps to find the whereabouts of the negative...
I could not find James Sur Uncle’s original work, I would like to follow the consistent style of "cemetery whistleman", the novel should be spicy, but the film only gives me a warm and sticky feeling, not bad, but it is definitely not good enough.
The face project of the film is done very well. Greenland, Iceland, Himalayas, the vast, beautiful, high-purity, high-concentration space and scenery, with the huge visual difference, shakes us in the city, who is sluggish in the city. This was originally a film. It is an excellent fate that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but it is a pity that the story is absent. In the hastily passing scenery, it is impossible to find where the protagonist's eyes turn to the world.
It's like entering Tibet for the first time, almost everyone will have a blank mind and a peaceful mind, letting the Buddha get some kind of divine sign. But this kind of sign is often only from the lack of oxygen in the brain, and what is worse is that it is often difficult to last. In the end, only muddy roads, chaotic breakfasts, and dirty hotels are left.
If we cannot find another perspective to view the world through travel or changes in the external environment; if we cannot leave our riverbanks to experience the existence of all things in nature; then travel seems to be a journey from one place to another. Escape, we are still prisoners after all.
Therefore, in this whole beautiful movie, only a few moments really touched me: the protagonist jumped into the helicopter amidst the guitar sound of the fantasy heroine; the sky was covered with clouds, the fuselage took off, slow motion He opened his eyes wide and looked down at the earth, and saw another high-level view of the world. In the second scene, in the Himalayas, the photographer played by Sean Penn said "Beautiful things do not ask for attentions". Just like my favorite "Xinyiwu", the hibiscus flowers in the woods are red in the mountains. There are no people in Jianhu, and they open and fall one after another. Beauty is a natural state and has never been related to expectations.
Also, the ending of the film. Although every cell in my body that shouted hormones was protesting the bleakness of the ending, I have to say that the ending is pretty solid.
We often say "come on a walk-and-go trip", as if after a walk, life will be turned upside down. In fact, after returning, you may find that the world has not become better or worse. Even if you find the diligent negative and become the cover character of a certain magazine, the end is still to be over, the piano that should be sold still has to be sold, the economic crisis has not been resolved, and life remains the same.
I think this ending is really good. We always feel that our boring life now seems to be rehearsing all the time, and grand performances will officially begin at a certain travel or moment. Actually otherwise, the performance has been going on, Stop dreaming, start living. Travel to a place, watch a movie, read a book, or fall in love. Through proactive intervention in the external environment, you will friction with nature, stories, and lovers, and then discover your true feelings. Think, where, and get rid of false daydreams and become a dreamer of life.
