If you are a fan of fruit, you would like to see Gang Master Qiao who made a fortune from the garage in this movie History of struggle, then he will definitely scold. In fact, the film only played three product launches, namely Apple's first mac computer in 1984, the BlackCube released by NeXT founded by Jobs in 1988, and the imac in 1998. Not only that, the audience couldn't even see the climax of the press conference. They only saw that before the opening of the press conference, people took turns to quarrel with Jobs. There were not many people, only six. Jobs, played by Fa Shark (Michael Fassbender), has a lot of golden sentences, and he fights with Confucian scholars. disuse. But every quarrel has its root cause. The director will intersperse the dense dialogue with flashbacks to tell the history, and the grievances against Jobs and the people around him will end. Just under the advancement of the machine gun-like dialogue, Jobs' strong personal character came out.
Here, we must praise Fa Shark's acting skills. Fa Shark's appearance is very different from Jobs' appearance. Thanks to the director for not letting him deliberately gain weight, lose weight or make up to imitate the appearance of Joe's gang leader (if Bell played him, he would definitely play again.) this set). But Fa Shark has an unquestionable aura. He has created an overly narcissistic and extremely picky "madman", a paranoid who pursues perfection, and a genius ahead of the times. This character is highly compatible with Jobs' character. , so that we don't have to pay attention to whether this character matches the real Jobs, we can only feel that this person can indeed create miracles. It is said that Steve Jobs's former friend (and later a grudge), Apple co-founder Stephen. Wozniak recognized the performance of the French Shark very much, and even made him "forget what Steve Jobs originally looked like." In terms of supporting roles, Fat Wen and Seth Rogen also Dedicated performances with textbook precision.
But only good actors are not enough to make good dramas. What really shocked me was a series of wonderful dialogues, and the soul of this film was not the director, but the screenwriter Alan Sorkin. The previous "Social Network" with David Lynch still has basic narrative clues. This time, "Steve Jobs" has completely relied on dialogue to narrate and shape characters. Moreover, the screenwriter's skills in burying the stalks are powerful. The three press conferences actually echo each other and are in the same line. All kinds of foreshadowing are completed by dialogue. After careful consideration of the whole film, there is not a single nonsense. For example, Jobs once said to Woz: "Musicians play instruments, and Seiji Ozawa plays the whole band." Later Woz questioned Jobs that he could neither write code, nor a designer, nor an engineer, what his opinion on Apple's products was. What's your contribution? Jobs said: "I play the whole band, and you are the best musician in the front row." In addition to frequent golden sentences, the screenwriter is also good at creating a multi-faceted personality. Jobs did not care about the feelings of the people around him. His friend and colleague Woz, the father-like former Apple CEO Sculley, and the biological mother of his only daughter, all fell out. Faced with his illegitimate daughter Lisa who was only 5 years old, he coldly said that Lisa's computer was named after the abbreviation of Personal Integrated Circuit, and it was just a coincidence that the name was the same as hers. But before the last press conference, although he was accustomed to quarreling with his daughter, he still hoped that her daughter would stay and participate in this important moment. He told her that there was no such thing as a personal integrated circuit, and the name of Lisa computer came from her. Seeing that his daughter was wearing an ugly Walkman from the age of 9 to 19, Jobs, who suffered from aesthetic obsessive-compulsive disorder, said: "I'm going to put songs in your pocket. You can put 1,000 songs, 500 songs, 10,000 songs." This way of expressing fatherly love may be contrary to the real Steve Jobs. In fact, the screenwriter brought private goods and incorporated his own creative ideas. Alan Sorkin said to his daughter when he won the Golden Globes: "All I do is to please you."
Under such a strong and outstanding screenwriter halo, Danny Boyle, the dazzling talent, didn't play much. Space. His lighting is really good, and the flashbacks are slippery. But Alan Sorkin's brilliance is too bright. If this film is lacking, it can only be blamed on the director's lack of skill.
There is a very interesting tidbit, the commercial that mentioned the mac computer was rated as the most outstanding commercial in history at the time, and this expensive commercial that did not even appear in the product also became one of the reasons for the board to oust Steve Jobs. One, and its director is the sci-fi director Ridley Scott.
Really a hero knows a hero.
