Straightforward beauty

The first time I tried to write a movie review, I was very nervous. How can I pretend to write often? ?
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ I
have always felt that to watch a movie with a plot, it is necessary to learn from the movie From the perspective of the film, abide by the settings of the movie, abide by the assumed conditions of the movie, and abide by the market positioning of the movie itself, so I don’t think there are so many bad movies. I've been wondering for a while, why are so many famous actors who have won awards to make admittedly bad movies? I didn't understand it all the time, and then I guessed that the positioning of the movie itself was probably a bad movie.
Back to Mr. Turner, there is no magnificent plot in the whole movie. Everything is the most ordinary life. It is true that Mr. Turner has made great achievements in the field of painting. , painting is just one thing in ordinary life; there are no handsome guys and beauties to support the scene, the male protagonist has a normal face, a muddy voice, and an ugly body. Mrs. Smith was kind and dignified, but she was still an old man. So when I introduced the film to my classmates, they were not interested, when the Hollywood-style action blockbuster bombarded for too long, this kind of biographical film seemed to become a niche, but maybe the film itself Market positioning is like that.
At the beginning of the film, the morning sun hung in the sky, illuminating the small stream, grass and the big windmill. I was instantly attracted by this scene, and the film did not disappoint me. Later, I saw more with Mr. Turner's eyes. The beautiful scenery, the sea, the sailboats, the mountains, the grass, the beautiful scenery seems to have a magic power, which will make people who see it move inexplicably. In my memory, only the scenery of Brokeback Mountain has such a shocking power. So when Mr. Turner was sitting in Mrs. Booth's cozy hotel room, staring straight at Mrs. Booth's nose and the view out of the window, he said to Mrs. Booth, your nose eyebrows and the sailboats and bridges outside the window remind me of When you look at the statue of Eros, you can't help but feel warm. The beautiful scenery is always better because of artificial infusion of emotion. So when Mr. Turner walks along the waves by himself, when Mr. Turner climbs the mountains by himself, you will feel as if you are there, you are standing and watching and contemplating. So when Mr. Turner and his party are sitting on the cruise ship, commenting on the steaming steamboat coming in the sunset, although they are criticizing industrialization, you will also be shocked by the beauty and stare intently. People always like beautiful things, especially when the heart is covered by some dust, beautiful things can always calm the heart, brush away the dust, and give you unspeakable power.
Turner liked to paint the sea, and he liked to paint the way the sea was rough, so he tied himself to the mast to face the storm. I don't know anything about painting, and I can't talk like Mr. Larkins, even though what he says is superficial. All I can see is that Turner liked to paint landscapes, which were popular at first, but the trend went to portraiture. The existence of Mr. Haydn seems to be a joke, but at the same time, it also shows a kind of resistance, a direct resistance to the trend. He is constantly ridiculed for focusing only on his own pursuit, never considering the market or the audience, but Mr. Haydn is really such a painter. Fortunately, in other countries, some people finally appreciate his talent. In a sense, Haydn is a shadow of Turner. Haydn and the tide are diametrically opposed, and Turner is in between. That's why Turner sympathized with Haydn, and why Turner's paintings became less popular but still had a certain market. Turner kept thinking, he seemed to have made some kind of compromise, so he watched Haydn being played like a monkey, his expression was always serious. Perhaps, Turner was just lucky, and he has been pursuing himself, but it just happened that this pursuit coincided with the taste of the public, but in the end, the trend still deviated from him, and he was no longer willing to compromise.
The emotion in the movie is the same as the overall rhythm, it is just a faint presentation, but it is strong enough. We don't know what happened to Mr. Turner's ex-wife and daughters that made Turner feel indifferent to them, even when he learned of the death of one of his daughters. The maid's love for Turner was obvious. Whenever Turner hurried home, the maid was always full of joy, asking for help, and her words instantly increased. Even if Turner always only regarded her as a tool to vent his sexual desires, and always treated her as cold as ice, shouting and drinking, she didn't care, and buried her love deeply in her heart. She learned to read by herself, and she also went to appreciate the paintings, just to get closer to Turner, but when a group of people stood in Turner's studio and admired the paintings, Turner just asked her to drive away the flies on the top of the gauze. But she wouldn't resist, at most she just pouted, glared, at most she just mumbled and complained that I didn't put it in. Love is always selfless and silent. When you fall in love with someone whose level is too much higher than yourself, it is destined to be only a tragedy, and it is destined to be humbled to the ground. Until she finally found out that Turner had been living with another woman, and when she knew that Turner would not tell her even if she was seriously ill, she finally couldn't help choking and turned away. Ugly and ignorance cannot cover up the beauty of human nature, but this beauty seems cruel.
There is no doubt that Mrs Booth loved Turner, perhaps initially because of loneliness, but gradually, she was attracted by Turner's talent, she firmly believed that the most important thing in a person is the inner, she firmly believed that Turner was kind, She was happy with Turner. For companionship, isn't that enough? Couldn't the warm feeling of watching them walk arm in arm in the golden sun, snuggle up and chat by the bed, answer the ultimate question of life? Turner must have belonged to Mrs Abbots too. He could sit quietly and listen to Mrs. Booth talking like a little girl, and he would smile sweetly in front of Mrs. Booth. Genius is lonely, but no one ever said that genius does not need company. After Turner's father died, his heart needed someone to care for him.
It's just that I still don't understand why Mr. Turner, who didn't cry when he saw his father's death, cried out loud after knowing the age of the prostitute, and why he couldn't control it again after seeing the young girl drown. Live your feelings and cry?
The film chose to tell the story in a straightforward way, perhaps just to tell us that there is not so much vigour and vigour, and most of the beauty is hidden in ordinary life.
