The old man at the beginning, after the theater on foot, said "Ever since you were small, people have been letting you down." "Every time you reach out for something you care about, fate comes along and snatches it away."
Instead, the people Kong, who was a beast in his eyes, did not deceive Ann or disappoint her.
When the producer Jack discussed the shooting with Ann, he introduced "And she can't escape the feeling that forces beyond her control are compelling her down a road from which she cannot draw back. It's as if her whole life has been a prelude to this moment. This fateful meeting that changes everything. And sure enough, against her betters judgment."
Then the heroine said "Good things never last.", remembering at the end, enhancing regret and sorrow.
It takes 40 minutes to set the stage, one and a half hours on the island, and one hour for modern drama. The foreshadowing is indeed lengthy, but it can be considered excusable. The integrity of the characters has indeed been improved, which makes the actions of the characters appear to be reasonable in the future.
My favorite is the play in New York. It is not only the utilitarian Jack that shows the dark side of human nature, but the details of the onlookers captured are even brighter. eg Brody noticed something bad and reminded the audience to evacuate and leave, and the audience responded with the phrase "Go buy your own place, mine will not give you", combined with the accidental closure of the theater where Ann was at the beginning, the irony of the human community in the film is obvious .
In the New York City scene, he was even more impressed with Kong's performance. For example, on the stage, the fake Ann was hung, and the close-up shot took his worried look; for example, when he met again, he and her slowly approached, switching the close-ups of Kong and Ann's faces while inserting the side shots; after a short period of time Happy time, including scenes on the ice, until being broken by a cannonball, this beauty; another example, the most touching part, and finally a series of scenes at the top of the Empire State Building, put Ann gently into the building and the final parting .
PJ freezes the ending in the street scene after Kong's fall, while Ann's shot stops at the embracing between her and the playwright on the roof of the Empire State Building. PJ has a kind of "abrupt stop" ending, which brings regret and endless aftertaste.
Kong has been a king on Skull Island for an unknown number of years, but at the end, he died of love, was destroyed by gunfire, and was defeated by human nature.
"And lo, the beast looked upon the face of the beauty, and beauty stayed his hand. And from that day forward, he was as one dead." The
last Jack sentence "The beauty killed the beast". Yes, he fell in love with the beauty, but the story is not as complete and heart-warming as Disney's "Beauty and the Beast". This story is heart-wrenching. The love for Ann allowed Kong to enter the sinister, despicable, and cunning human society in the plot, and finally died of the tragic consequences of this unusual and desperate love.
The heart has the Tigers, fine sniffing the rose.
