But after watching it, I found that it seems too narrow to simply define this film as an American campus youth romance film. What I see is not only the beautiful friendship, love, solidarity, and vigorous attitude of life among young people, but also more , I saw all the people in the film, all the souls shining because of their dreams, at such an age of nothing, with an indomitable tenacity and stubbornness, shining brightly because of their dreams. As said in the film: "Success is waking up in the morning and looking forward to your life." Not all people can be successful, some people achieve their dreams, some people can't, and some work is eye-catching , Some jobs are unremarkable, but those small and ordinary us who used to run desperately because of our dreams and did our best to do the things in front of us well can also be the existences that support the operation of the world.
I have to sigh at the breadth and depth of Chinese, and the translation of a simple "fame" is poetic and fascinating. The film can't be called how brilliant, I feel that the director wants to tell too many stories, but in the second half it seems procrastinated and a bit unfinished. But I don't deny that I like it, I like it, not only because of the gorgeous song and dance scenes in it, what I like is its authenticity - reflecting all our confusion, frustration and disappointment, the movie came to the senior year abruptly Stop, what do they do after graduation? We have nowhere to know, as the movie said, some people can be picked up by the modern dance company after graduation, and some have to find another way out. In the movie, they experienced the premature death of love, the incomprehension of the family, and the deception from society, but at least in the end, as Kevin said: "At least there is a place where I can exist."
Jenny and Marco, one is to put all the A girl who devotes her energy to learning and does not easily waste every opportunity for a one-man show; a boy who has amazing talent but only pursues "Be Happy".
Jenny's parents divorced since she was a child. She blamed all the mistakes on herself. She is the most eager to succeed among all people, but when she disregarded Marco's dissuasion and resolutely went to the so-called "auditing", she realized that what she was after The success of the show is nothing more than an excuse used by ill-intentioned agents to deceive a young girl who, after losing Marco, finds that she has never really relaxed and enjoyed the performance itself, as the teacher said: "Acting starts by observing others. , understand others, and then understand yourself.” She pursued success only to get rid of the loneliness since childhood, but because of her so-called success, she lost something more important. It wasn't until this time that she realized what she really wanted. All she wants is company. She thinks that success can bring her these things. However, when she is too focused and too persistent, she and Marco are just like her parents, drifting away and unable to save.
No one's life can be perfect and flawless. As Eileen Chang said: "Life is a gorgeous robe full of fleas." Beneath all the bright appearances, there are sorrows and sorrows that we can't understand. Success therefore seems very heavy, because we have paid too much, and many times we find that when we open the door that we have always hoped for, we will find that it is empty.
Kevin is from Iowa. All his dreams are to become a professional ballet dancer. He is introverted and reserved. He can never catch up with the skilled classmates in the office. On the eve of graduation, he found his teacher and hoped that she I can write a letter of recommendation for myself, but the response I get is a refusal - "Many people will be picked by major dance companies before graduation, and many people can only find another way out. Kevin, you can never become a professional dancer. But maybe you can be a good teacher. "The belief that has supported him for a long time has collapsed. He once thought that New York could become a paradise for realizing his dreams by stepping out of the small town where he grew up, but he found that New York is indeed a A paradise, in New York City, countless people have realized their dreams, stood on the stage, and more people came to New York, bumping into walls everywhere and having nowhere to put them. Desperate, he chose to walk towards the galloping subway. Malik, from the joint, is poor and has low self-esteem. Because of life, he took to the streets early. He regarded performing arts school as his only way out. Facing his mother's incomprehension, he said sadly: "talented people can achieve Dream, why can't that person be me?" He was angry and stubborn, because he had low self-esteem and couldn't face his heart.
We don't know if they made their dreams come true, but Keven didn't choose to jump, he chose to go back to Iowa and become the best dance teacher. Malik chose to face his heart, on the stage, abandoned his anger, and spoke his own experience.
In fact, in the end, the film didn't tell who really succeeded and became famous all over the world. What's more, it was the ups and downs in the four years, the continuous loss and the continuous progress. More often, what I see in the movies is the confusion and overwhelm of the generation who walked out of the ivory tower. They are eager to succeed, but they are at a loss, and they are dizzy in the adult world.
But as Jenny said in the final one-man show: "What is success, not money, status, power, and fame. Success is waking up in the morning, excited about what you have to do, and running out of the room so excited; It's you waking up in the middle of the night thinking that what you're doing is the best thing in the world; it's being in company with the people you love; it's being connected to the world; it's being and feeling, and success is love." Under the starry sky, we seem so small and insignificant, but like the amazing graduation ceremony at the end of the film, we have dreams and sparkle, we may not succeed, but we must be connected to this world, to exist, its feel.
In the end, I was always worried that I would write a chicken soup article. It seems to be no different from the so-called inspirational web articles that have been circulated wildly in the circle of friends. But that's what I really felt after watching the movie. Because it is a movie, he can fulfill our shortcomings and make up for all our disappointments and sorrows. Movies can make us experience emotions that we have never experienced, go to a distant place that we have never reached, and make us frustrated and have the courage to see what life is like starting from scratch.
It cannot be denied that we are getting more and more anxious because we are so disappointed in ourselves, the process of going from college to society makes us not look at it earlier, we have heard too many success stories and seen too many successful people, so we are lost, We used to think that learning is a shortcut to change our destiny, so we devote ourselves to learning. When we were admitted to a very good university, facing the envy of all others, we were still at a loss in the adult world. Many people say that the younger generation is getting more and more impetuous, that is because we want to be successful too much, we are facing the shocking housing prices, and in all the big cities that are not our hometowns, we walk out of the narrow rental houses every day, and we are in a hurry. On the subway, when we make a phone call, we dare not tell our parents that we are not doing well at work, or that we are sick. Many times, we just want to hear the voice of our mother and eat the tomato scrambled eggs made by our mother once. We will cry alone in the middle of the night when no one is there. But we are still the generation that chooses to stay in big cities and pursue their ideal life. We can have nothing, but we can shine because of our dreams.
