Shallow let me applaud

Now more and more movie cores are "who am i". We are also constantly telling ourselves, eager to find ourselves. Looking for one label after another, one community after another longing to define itself. The movie "The King of the Circus" is good, but it is so "superficial" telling the audience, "Look, why are there so many strange people here, why are they hiding, why are they afraid". who are we, who are we. To borrow Li Yinhe's words "village culture", this is the source of most people's anxiety. People may stop living their lives by how they feel and pay more attention to what others think. Along the way, we thought we lost ourselves. We thought we were all living beings. Thousands of people are looking for themselves, but it does not mean that you are ordinary. Our stories are similar, even if we are dirty, or you yearn for the dark, we are still ourselves.

    Neither humble nor overbearing, a carnival of human nature. "The noblest art is to bring happiness to others." The 2018 live-action version of "Happy Voice". The level of singing and dancing is high, but the story is not good...

    The starting point as a director’s debut is high enough. He knows how to shoot musicals better than [City of Philharmonic]. Uncle Wolf is really a high commander. Except for the Swedish Nightingale, which is hilarious, most of the other chants and arrangements are remarkable, especially the one at the bar. What is more surprising is the mixed identity political discourse, all kinds of marginalized people stand up to speak, it is politically correct to the extreme, rare but not offensive. Of course it is also a pity that the third act completely collapsed.

The Greatest Showman quotes

  • P.T. Barnum: I can't fool the bank into loaning me more money, so... I'm really sorry to disappoint you all.

    Tom Thumb: Don't worry, Barnum. We've gotten used to it by now.

  • James Gordon Bennett: I never liked your show, but I always thought the people did

    P.T. Barnum: They did. They do!

    James Gordon Bennett: Putting people of all Shapes, Sizes, Colours. Putting them on stage together and presenting them as equals, another critic might have even called it a celebration of humanity.

    P.T. Barnum: I would've liked that.
