Please don't judge a movie with political correctness.

original starting point was to see that someone said that Moonlight won the bp, but the quality of Brokeback Mountain was thrown by the Moonlight Ten Streets but failed to win it. It seems that the latter is wronged. Besides, many people like to describe Moonlight's victory as politically correct. I may have some opinions on this issue.

First of all, my favorite place to get BP is Manchester by the sea. But in fact, this year, whether it's Conger Lara or Moonlight, it's not surprising to get which one, and it doesn't necessarily have to be which one, because all three have their own shortcomings. There is no perfect movie in this world, even if it is the best picture at the Oscars, but this year there is really no one relatively recognized and unanimous movie that deserves BP.

Is Brokeback Mountain a pity? It was a pity in those days. After all, when you think about the position of bp, Brokeback was also swept by various outposts all the way back then. Instead, the crash was a suppressed position. In the end, he won bp as a dark horse, including turning over the news of the year, and many people described it as a dark horse. The crash turned out.
Of course, it's not surprising that Brokeback Mountain lost to Crash that year. In fact, I don't think that the quality of Crash should be better than that of Brokeback Mountain. In my opinion, I always think that Crash creates conflicts and moral dilemmas too much. There are a lot of award-winning elements, it looks unnatural and contrived, and I watched the crash first, and I don’t know the result of the award. There is no preconceived idea, so just looking at an independent film, I am very I don't like crashing cars, which has also led to me being a black car crasher all the time.
Therefore, the regret of Brokeback Mountain was not caused by the crash, and the crash was not a necessary and powerful opponent. It was just placed more than ten years ago. The environment at that time was too different from now, and Brokeback Mountain suffered when it was released that year. There is no small-scale boycott, and many judges may not even watch this film. If you don't give Brokeback Mountain BP, it is really easy to understand that you choose to award it to a crash that sells well.





In such a situation, Brokeback Mountain was able to go all the way and finally won several Oscars. Although it is regrettable, it has not been easy. Many people say that this year's Moonlight took it, but Brokeback Mountain, which was also a same-sex theme back then, was so much better quality but didn't take it was a big injustice. I can only say that the injustice of Brokeback was created by the times, and it's not due to a crash. It is also not attributed to Moonlight. It is meaningless to compare films from different sessions. Just like if Brokeback Mountain was in this session, it is estimated that it would be difficult for lll to win bd, not to mention that Moonlight and Brokeback are separated by more than ten sessions. , the background of the times is so different. Think about it from another angle, doesn't Moonlight's victory just show that it is a kind of progress of the times? I feel relieved in a sense for Brokeback Mountain, and at the same time think optimistically, it will no longer be impossible for LGBTQ-themed films to be judged on bp in the future, and Moonlight has made a good start in a sense. Hope that there will be LGBTQ films of sufficient quality to win bp in the future.



Seeing that there are many people who say that the moonlight is the light of political correctness, if they really care so much, isn't the political correctness tendency of the crash more obvious? Moonlight and Hidden, of course, have black elements, and Moonlight also adds homosexuality, but the good thing about the two films in dealing with these elements is that they did not use too much force, but they were used as the background of the story. In fact, racial discrimination and discrimination against LGBTQ still exist in real life. I believe no one will deny this. Since reality exists, of course there will and should exist movies that reflect the situation of these groups. It is necessary to preconceived that it is politically correct, then our BP will not have a similar theme in the future, wouldn't it be better not to be shortlisted, because as soon as it comes out, some people will say it is politically correct, not to mention winning an award.
The reason why I don't like to see some people say that a movie is politically correct is because political correctness is never the reason to criticize the quality of a movie. What are the shortcomings of the plot, discussion and performance, etc., it will be much better to put aside the hat of political correctness. Like I don't like crashing cars, I try not to say it's politically correct, I'll discuss it from the foreshadowing of the plot, because there will be politically correct movies every year, and we really need such movies, even if many people accuse them of being politically correct , but they do reflect the injustices of society, the hardships that various groups have been and are experiencing.
Would Moonlight have such an achievement if all the casts were replaced by white people? I found that a lot of people like to use this kind of rhetorical question. Even before the awards season officially started, people have always said it. I wonder why some people like to think like this? Isn't there not enough white and Asian gay films for us? Is making a gay film for black people as utilitarian as some people think? There are so many blacks among comrades, but how many comrade films with black themes have we seen? Why can't there be a film that speaks for black gays? And is there something in this story that's only seen in the black community that fits the white man?
Although Asian, white, and black gays are all of the same sex, the difference in race determines the specific situation that everyone faces. Asian gays may be less entangled by religion, but family values ​​have a huge impact, white gays face religious resistance, and black gays have to add color discrimination on the basis of white gays, so the situation of black gays is more specific. There are also particularities. The Moonlight Boy is not surprising at all, and it is very positive. Some people say that it is politically correct when they come up. It is so chilling to say this sentence aside from winning the award. .



There are also people who use western cowboys to replace the background. This is actually the same as the white man replacing the black man. I have already explained it, not to mention that the starting point of the film is different. I don't know why there are always people who like to use you to replace xxx with xxx. Try this The format of the film, the film was shot. Does it make sense? I'm not a big fan of Moonlight, and Moonlight doesn't give me a good look, but as a matter of fact, if anyone has to consider a film like this to be politically correct, at least Moonlight's understatement in dealing with these elements is more than some overkill The film of bitterness and hatred is so much better.


Like the comments I saw before:
Moonlight is not only about black people, it is not only about gays, it is a love and hope that grows up and down, just like a lingering moonlight in everyone's mind, but this It all happened to happen to one person, and that person just happened to be a black comrade.




Speaking of dipping, it cannot be denied that the moonlight is dipped in the light of black comrades, and lll is also dipped in the light of the elements of musical and dance films, both of which have dazzling ingredients. If you say from the dipping, I can also cite many similar examples from even the past BPs, because the subject matter itself is innate, there is no need to over-look it, and there are naturally too many films that take advantage of the subject matter and end up hitting the streets. .





Finally,
even if Brokeback Mountain has to say that it lost to political correctness, it was also lost to the political correctness of the crash, not the political correctness of the moonlight more than ten years later.
If we go back to 2004, the public opinion environment is very different from now, and even Brokeback Mountain will still be said to be politically correct.


Political correctness is too good a target.


The good news is that Moonlight and Hidden Characters have one thing in common that I still appreciate, that is, it is obvious that all kinds of bitterness and hatred can create explosive points, but it is still rare to choose the most bland and restrained way. Blacks and comrades, in In these two films, as a specific identity, they live like ordinary people, worrying about gains and losses in front of love or using strength to prove the injustice of prejudice, without any effort, and eloquently.






It's okay for some people to be dissatisfied with the awards, but don't use their opinions on the awards to examine the value orientation of the film. If the content of these two films can make you feel uncomfortable with political correctness, then please don't look at blacks and LGBTQ in the future. Related movies, because such movies, from the very beginning of the subject matter, have been deeply branded by you as politically correct.

The moonlight doesn't look very good, and the strange thing is that I will occasionally recall the moonlight reflected on the black boy's skin, like the swaying melancholy in his eyes, soft and firm.
