After a year, people believe in the sense of security brought by conservatives, and believe that the limited energy in life should be contributed to valuable things. It's better to spend the rest of your life with one person than with different people. The same is true of watching movies. Instead of trying to see bad movies, it is better to choose a trusted director and pick a few reliable old movies. The best movie-watching experience of the year comes from revisiting the old 2005 movie "The Rhythm My Heart Forgot".
The story of "The Rhythm My Heart Forgets" is not complicated. 28-year-old Tom is officially a thug of the demolition and relocation office of a commercial real estate development company. Tom needs to keep wiping his daddy's ass, and at the same time, Tom's love for music is inherited from his unsuccessful musician mother - encountering his mother's former manager, Tom hopes to resume his career as a piano player. While fighting in a trivial and gray life, Tom practiced the piano with Miao Lin from China (the harder it was), waiting for the day of the audition.
If understood according to the values of the main theme, the film tells about the difficulty of small people insisting on pursuing their dreams. But "The Rhythm My Heart Forgets" does not fall out of the norm in that it does not exaggerate the hardships of perseverance and does not make up the rewards of success. Strengthening these two points is the irritating weakness of all inspirational films. The former struggles to induce tears, while the latter beats chicken blood. To put it bluntly, it is promiscuous. For example, the pursuit of movies, music, and literature, and the link between expectations and success, cannot be separated from chicken thieves, and only deserve to wait for the wind at the beginning of spring every year.
No matter from which point of view, Tom of the demolition office is not living on a normal track, but you can't see entanglement and dissatisfaction in the film. He treats life with a childlike simplicity and willfulness: disturbing Huang's father's marriage and trying to save it , to take the wind and the buddy's wife to the fucking buddy, to deal with the Russian gangster boss, and flirt with his mistress. Without complaining about his destiny, without having to oppress himself with a sense of morality, Roman Duris interprets this young man full of anger in his blood to a superb level.
Compared with Tom's chaotic and hurried life, the process of learning the piano with Miao Lin can see him indulging in classical music and relaxing after abandoning the trivial matters of life. comparison. When learning the piano, he was impatient and anxious because of his mistakes, and he was delighted and happy because of his progress. All his reactions came naturally and unconcealed, and audiences who lacked appreciation of classical music could also feel the charm of music. The interaction between him and Miao Lin that transcended language was also subtle and light.
My favorite part of the film is that after Tom failed the audition, he was always grumpy, but he didn't make any gaffes, but politely apologized. Come again, play wrong again, apologize politely, get up and leave quietly. When his dreams were shattered, he was reserved and restrained. This young man who always behaved rudely showed enough respect for music and art. It's so rare to have talent that is lacking, not to cry, and not to feel sorry for oneself.
In terms of film technique, the director of this film, Jacques Audiard, is really a great director. He has only made three works in 10 years, and each of them is a good one. "The Prophet" is sharp, and "Rust and Bone" is long. Looking back at this film, I found that the language of the three films is completely different. His works completely break through the barriers of art and commerce, and there are no restrictions on the type structure, and his skills are very familiar. reveal any traces. "The Rhythm of My Heart Forgotten" jumps and splits throughout the film. The emotion of each segment is that the channel is quickly changed as soon as it is sultry, but it gives an extremely coherent and shocking ending. Three views are positive, and there are methods, so the director's work is the brand guarantee.
All those who are obsessed with their dreams should watch this movie. The charm of music has never been to become a musician. Why haven't I succeeded yet? Shouldn't I be so miserable? Why don't you recognize me yet? Do you know how difficult it is for me? ——All underappreciated talents are either high self-esteem or putting the cart before the horse.
What is the rhythm that my heart forgets? Do what you want to do, but forget about its own good.
