We grew up at midnight (with spoilers)

My male magic shark seems to have never played a bully, coaxing Golden Finger to open a handsome matchup. He has always been twisted and twisted to make people love and hate, and when he sees him, he will bite his handkerchief in his heart. The British man who was killed by the bear boy in "Lake Eden", the cheap robot leftover in "Prometheus", the freak and genius singer who had to wear helmets all the time to bathe and shit in "Frank", In "Dangerous Way" with Carl Jung, who was in bed with his illness, Lao Wan who couldn't bear to look directly at the second in the restarted X-Men series, and the old driver who abducted the upright young girl ticket in "Western Slow Tune" , Of course, there is this one, jobs.

Before watching this film, I have seen some biographical clips of Joe’s gang masters shot in the early years. The actors look very much like themselves, but there is always an indescribable feeling-the form is gathered and the spirit is scattered. Of course, the film didn't seem to have a good reputation back then. In fact, there is a similarity between the celebrity biopics and the original adaptations. It is how to make profound and unconventional adaptations based on prototypes. In my few movie viewing experiences, I think there are several celebrity biopics. It's great, Lincoln, behind the candlestick and this job.

This film uses a very clever way to shape the person of jobs. The choice of three cross-sections is very clever. Before the opening of the three important conferences (MAC, NEXT, IMAC) in his life, the intense drama conflicts are concentrated in Within a few minutes, there was no sense of rush, and the interspersed and parallel of multiple clues was like a Shakespearean play. The screenwriter is well-deserved for winning the Golden Globe Award. And this film is unconventional. The shots for Jobs' brilliant conference are very stingy. The film’s inking point is not in the spotlight. The Apple CEO, who is well-known by the public, is a leader with high vision and action. It gives jobs with flesh and blood. The shaping of the image of this person: steve jobs, he is an unborn genius, a manic tyrant, a paranoid pursuing perfection, but a failed father, and a lonely and lonely man with a miserable childhood.
In addition to jobs, there are four important characters in the film, his daughter Lisa, confidant Joanna Huffman, Bole John Sculley and entrepreneurial partner steve wozniak. In the interaction with them, jobs play four different roles in his life, father, Lovers, sons and friends. The entanglement and parallelism of these four clues form the steve jobs in this film that are wise, savvy, paranoid, and sensible and emotional.

Father-and daughter Lisa, the three incidents in the film reflect his conversion and contradiction to this role, from the first refusal, to hesitation, and finally to honesty. This should be regarded as the main line of the film, and the emotional handling is very exposed. The father and daughter have similar personalities. When I was a child, Lisa hugged Steve and whispered to him, "I want to live with you." Steve drew Lisa's abstraction on Macprint. The painting was printed out and kept with you. There was also the dispute between the father and daughter over the name "Lisa". The young jobs strongly denied that he named the computer after his daughter. The older jobs finally got together on the rooftop (what a good place) The girl confessed, girl, can't you make it, lisa is the computer behind my office, I just used your name to give it a name! At the iMAC conference in 1998, the white light from the flash was reflected on the girl’s face. The film was finally frozen in the scene of jobs walking towards Lisa. I noticed that there was an open door on the left side of the screen, so jobs just came over. With the door closed, let's introduce Lisa to the world, let's make up for it yourself.

Lovers-with joanna. The film seems to deliberately create an ambiguous atmosphere between jobs and joanna. Before the first mac conference, Fa Shak kneels in front of Winslet. The picture of two people in the same frame is really the idol drama index soaring, and that sentence, "This is a matter between you and me", I almost subconsciously thought that jobs and joanna were a pair, and the original partner brought her daughter to find them and tore them = = There was also jobs jokingly asking joanna, "How do we pay back? Haven't slept before?" The latter sternly returned to him, "We are not in love" (Hey, you two really seem to be in love! Invisible dog abuse!) Joanna mentioned a word in the following plot, work Wife, I think that using "work partner" to describe the feelings of these two people can not show that kind of fetters: a confidant who is connected with each other, a partner who advances and retreats together, regardless of life or workplace. Before the iMC conference, Joanna made the jobs and Lisa reconcile. She said hysterically, steve, I have always felt like an accomplice in the past 20 years. You know how much I love you, you and Lisa are the most failed of all the perfection in you. Joanna regards steve as her most perfect artwork. The Platonic love, care and companionship of two perfectionists is different from the ordinary love between us ordinary people, and it means a bit of mutual sympathy between heroes.

Son-with john sculley. Before the first press conference, John told jobs that andy (programming model) reminded me that playing your parental role (parenting you) is very dangerous. The development of the relationship between steve and John in the film is also related to life Parents have a similar trajectory, showing off their sharp edge, and eager to prove themselves; the rebellious period and their parents’ concepts are out of sync, and they run away in anger; after the trials and tribulations of the world, they compromise with each other broadly. What's interesting is that Sculley has been mentioning the experience of many jobs being adopted in the film. He only told Sculley the truth when they were anxious to see his daughter before the iMAC conference. "University educated, good life, Catholic." Steve jobs looked at John Sculley, maybe John is someone steve has always regarded as his master and father. I was very embarrassed. When Sculley and Jobs said he should meet his biological father, who was the owner of the restaurant where they discussed business back then, Jobs said, "No, I'm worried that he will find a reason to sue me."

Friends-with the garage friend steve wozniak. The same name has a different philosophy and life. "Thanks to the Apple II team at the press conference" is Woz’s request for jobs throughout the film. In fact, this reflects two completely different views: Woz wants to be open. , User-dominated, down-to-earth products, is also his attitude as a pragmatist, and jobs, as a dictator, his products are end-to-end, closed-loop terminals, which also makes him the so-called, among the artists Tyrant. The film constructs jobs' understanding of the product or his work during the dispute between the two of them on this point of view. In this clue, the "paranoid genius" characteristic of steve jobs is fully revealed. However, woz who walked out of the venue finally turned back, which is a kind of reconciliation.

In general, the acting skills of Farshark and Kate are impeccable (nominated for the Oscar actor and actress respectively), the performance of each actor is handled properly, and the overall scheduling and so on are all Oscar films above excellent standards. Expect it to win awards. (It's pure selfishness of the fans, touching my chest and saying, Xiao Li is really too Nima to fight in the Wilderness Hunter, and it is simply not kind to don't give Xiao Jin Ren)

Look back at the ending song again, Grew UP At Midnight.
We grew up at midnight
We were only kids then.
