The view from the ferris wheel was beautiful, but we didn't go anywhere. It's a romantic and beautiful place, but in the end it's useless, says Woody Allen.
This movie, which seems to be a woman who wants to use extra-marital love to save herself from the real life that she can't get out of, has been criticized by many people for being old-fashioned. In fact, the old man is satirizing most of the face of life with an obvious thing. In the film, the constant visibility of the "Ferris wheel" in the family apartment is a metaphor, these characters are caught in an infinite loop of behavior, and although they do want to change, their lives describe a vicious circle, they are their own victims, they cannot escape interdependence. The tone and location of the film are dramatic, and the metaphor of life can be seen in any ride in the amusement park. Either we're on the ever-rolling Ferris wheel, spinning aimlessly at the same speed over and over again as time mercilessly passes, or we're on the merry-go-round trying to grab that pom-pom decoration we'll never touch , or we're on a roller coaster, and we're on a roller coaster, and we're doing nothing. Cate Winslet is a good actress. She uses dramatic performance elements throughout the film, and sometimes she can hardly tell whether she is indulging in her performance or being too explosive in her life. The performance of "Out of Life" is probably what Woody needs. In this seemingly dreamy Coney Island, the bustling crowd of amusement parks, the blue sky and white clouds and summer beach holiday tourists, the suffocating life in saturated colors, the dream of life, life is like Play, paradise exists, but life is "like the dew in the morning, the day is bitter."
The setting of the Chinese courtyard, which often appears in Ginny and Mickey's date, conveys a message drawn from normal life, taking place in unrealistic and distant pavilions. Mickey's discussion of literature or drama is the opening remarks with every woman. This kind of bridge is full of romance and freehand brushwork from the perspective of every woman passing by, but it is so similar and the same from the perspective of an outside audience. Everyone circulates themselves in a preset pattern, interacting and rolling with the people around them and the environment. Ginny's son is always setting fires everywhere. He likes to watch movies, but he never burns them there. As for the likes and dislikes in life, adults are no longer as direct and clean as children, and children will dislike everything that is not pleasing to the eye. Light a fire and burn it, and adults are looking for this excuse and that reason to cover up the truth, but the truth will always be there. The film is in line with the old man's consistent style. The relaxed and pleasant atmosphere and the high-quality music will explain the human nature that is not very pleasant. I personally like a few pieces of music in it. 50's style: =============================================== ====== Georgia Gibbs' Kiss of Fire (1952) Jo Stafford's You Belong to Me (1952) The Mills Brothers Brothers) The Coney Island Washboard, The light-hearted JAZZ repeatedly interspersed in the film is very Woody Allen. ===================================================== === I saw a lot of comments using "Anna Karenina" and "Mrs. Bovary" to compare the fate of Ginny, it is a bit far-fetched to read such a story, after all, there is also "Mrs. Chatterley" ” case, there is no need to criticize and curse too much about the illusion of women chasing love after marriage. After all, life is very long, let’s see. Love is not a poison. It is difficult for people to recognize the real needs of their hearts, admit the problem and know how to solve it. Using a seemingly gorgeous reason to cover up the problems in real life is probably the biggest source of tragedy. Using the so-called beauty for a moment to escape the troubles in life will eventually pay for it, but many people are blind and like to deceive themselves. . Most people are comfortable on the Ferris wheel watching the distant scenery and the beautiful scenery. They are in a small car and continue to cycle, complaining about others, life, work, children, life will continue to cycle, you look at the car in front and back. There are people sitting in the cabin, just like you.
Ginny's marriage fell into derailment again, Humpty started drinking again, Carolina was caught by the underworld again, Mickey and every woman were talking about the clear ocean he once saw in Bora bora, and in the end, no one left before. The trajectory of life, it seems that everyone's life has changed, but nothing has changed.
Changes from external forces, passively adapting to the development of events and changing the trajectory of one’s life, have never been a change in self-awareness, and there will be no real change in essence, just moving from one car of the Ferris wheel to another. .
In the first episode of A Dream of Red Mansions, a mad monk said: "I know that there are all kinds of things in the world. If it is good, it is good. If it is not good, it is not good; if it is good, it must be." The essence of the problem is never Covered up, if not addressed, it will come back one day. "Okay?" "Are you there?"
