The great Roald Dahl (Roald Dahl)-from "The Great Fox Dahl"

Since I came to the English environment, especially after having children, Roald Dahl's name is often seen. There are a lot of his story books on the English children's literature shelf in the library, and there must be his works on the school's English reading book list. His name often pops into your eyes when you go to bookstores. The familiar "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" is adapted from his children's novel of the same name. It's a pity that I don't like "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and I can't afford to read his book. But, he is a British writer, he writes children's literature, he is witty and full of black humor, so sooner or later he will arouse my interest. This day is today. Today I watched "Fantastic Mr. Fox" (Fantastic Mr. Fox). Mr. Fox is a tuberculosis, former genius thief, and career-changing columnist. The heart is wild and is experiencing a slight mid-life crisis. Originally, under the persuasion of his beloved wife, he had given up his career as a thief in Jiangyang and honestly wrote a column to raise his son. However, one day, he suddenly moved to buy a real estate under the big tree despite the opposition of the badger lawyer. Near the property, there are three large farms that produce broilers, geese, and cider. None of the three bosses are good people. Mr. Fox couldn't help but patronize the three neighbors without telling his wife. As a result, the life of peace was unsuccessful, and the three bosses gathered their staff and vowed not to rest unless Mr. Fox was arrested and brought to justice. But Mr. Fox is a great fox. Who will win in the end? You will know by watching the movie. This film is produced by the 20th Century Fox Company and directed by Wes Anderson. I have seen his "Crossing Darjeeling" (The Darjeeling Limited) and I don't like it. However, the same talk was said from the mouths of some literary and artistic youths in Darjeeling, and from the mouth of Mr. Fox with big eyes and long legs, the effect was completely different. The latter is very cute. The complacency of George Guruny fits perfectly with the character's personality. Unlike the popular three-dimensional animations, this film is a stop-motion animation with a small number of puppets. The production group deliberately reveals the traces of the freeze frame, which is not smooth, but a little rough. Once used to it, a special rhythm and charm will be formed. It doesn't affect the narrative of the story at all, but it feels particularly chic. Bright colors. The music is lively, lively and humorous, which makes people laugh, and is highly consistent with the style of the film. This is the characteristic of the director. The details of the story are unclear, because the fun is there, the naughty lawless style, the exaggerations. So joyfully digging for authentic animals. Today, there was a man in the front row. When everyone was watching the theater quietly, he suddenly let out a deep, intoxicating laugh. There are many mocking and humorous dialogues that adults only understand, but the children are also very happy. She sees a group of cute and funny animals and desperately escapes the hunt of the wicked. An example of Xiaobian dialogue: Mr. Fox: [sighs] Who am I, Kylie? Mr. Fox: [sighs] Who am I, Kelly? Kylie: Who how? What now? Kelly (it's an opossum): Who what? what happened again? Mr. Fox: Why a fox? Why not a horse, or a beetle, or a bald eagle? I'm saying this more as, like, existentialism, you know? Who am I? And how can a fox ever be happy without, you'll forgive the expression, a chicken in its teeth? Mr. Fox: Why am I a fox? Not a horse, beetle, or vulture? How much I say it from an existential perspective, do you know? who am I? And a fox, if, please forgive my wording, if there is no chicken in its mouth, how can it be happy? "(Isn't this what 藨 is?) Kylie: I don't know what you're talking about, but it sounds illegal. Kylie: I don't know what you're talking about, but it sounds illegal. , The storyline of the movie seems to be different from the novel, but I believe it has a good grasp of the tone of the original. Roald Dahl is a tough and weird elf guy, obviously once a gifted child. Parents are Norwegians, Immigrated to England in the late 19th century. He was born in England. The first half of his life was a war hero in the Air Force of World War II, and he began to write books in the second half of his life. He writes both children's literature and other genres. The style is concise, rich in black humor, and the ending is often unexpected. Children There are often ferocious adults in literature, which is believed to be related to his childhood experience of boarding school. The next time he sees his book, he will come over and read it. a chicken in its teeth? Mr. Fox: Why am I a fox? Not a horse, beetle, or vulture?

    @filmoteca #罗达达 Centenary# I watched it no less than 20 times, three times in theaters, and each time I was in a different place with different people, and every time I could find subtle details scattered around, and every time the audience around me came from Laughing inwardly, they all fell into an almost solemn silence when the wolf appeared at the end. Maybe I like it so much that I can't write a word of praise. I can only revisit this sweet aftertaste again and again.

    Not my favorite animation stop motion animation looked awkward. I don't like the story either.

Fantastic Mr. Fox quotes

  • Petey: [singing around a campfire with his banjo] 'Bout a handsome little fox let me sing you folks a yarn. / Hey, diddle-dee daddle-da doddle-do doodle-dum! / 'Twas a splendid little feller full of wit 'n' grace 'n' charm. / Say, zippy-zee zappa-za yappy-yo doodle-dum! / Well, like any little critter needin' vittels for his littl'uns, / Well, he stole, and he cheated, and he lied just to survive. / With a doodle-dum diddle-die doddle-diddle doodle-dum!

    Other singers: Doodle-dum diddle-die doddle-diddle doodle-dum!

    Petey: Zippy-zo zippy-zay zippy-zappy zoopy-zee!

    Other singers: Zippy-zo zippy-zay zippy-zappy zoopy-zee!

    Petey: Doo-dah doo-day day...

    Petey: Let me take a little tick now to color in the scene: / 'Cross the valley lived three yokels name of Boggis, Bunce, and Bean. / Now these three crazy jackies had our hero on the run. / Shot the tail off the cuss with a fox-shootin' gun. / But that stylish little fox was as clever as a whip / Dug as quick as a gopher that was hyper-ack-a-tive.

    Other singers: Yeah!

    Petey: Now those three farmers sit 'twhere there's a hole 'twas once a hill. / Singin' diddle-dee daddle-da doddle-do doodle-dum! / And as far as I can reckon they're a-settin' up there still. Singin' zippy-zee zappa-za yappy-yo...

    Franklin Bean: [standing behind him] What are you singing, Petey?

    Petey: Just... just making it up as I went- as I went along, really.

    Franklin Bean: That's just weak songwriting. You wrote a bad song, Petey!

  • Kristofferson: Uh, do you mind if I slide my bed roll slightly out from under the train set? It's hard to sleep in that corkscrew position.

    Ash: [in the top bunk] There's a lot of attitudes going on around here. Don't let me get one.

    Kristofferson: No, it's only just my spinal cord getting...

    Ash: Sleep wherever you want, man. Here, take my bed! I'll just uh... I'll crawl under the bookcase! Who cares if I get splinters in my ears?

    Kristofferson: Never mind.

    Ash: Oh, you gonna pout about it? 'Cuz I've had it up to HERE

    [gestures with his hand]

    Ash: with the "sad houseguest" routine.

    [Ash turns off the light and continues to read his White Cape comic in bed]

    Kristofferson: Good night.

    [he lies down under the train set and begins to quietly sob; Ash comes down, turns on the train, Kris gets up and they watch it]
