My Blueberry Nights--The Film is Flawed and Awkward

Generally speaking, the box office of a new film is closely related to the rise and fall of its own market. As a woman with a market, you should dress up and wait for someone to come to an appointment every time the schedule comes. The higher the box office, the more repeat viewings, and the better the market. For example, I've watched "King Kong" twice and "Transformers" three times. Of course, the world is so difficult now, prices are soaring, and my market is getting worse day by day. At the end of the year, when the Lunar New Year blockbuster is competing for the top, no one is still interested. but! Only with Brother Jia Wei's films, even the old lady dares to enter the cinema alone.

Break through the taste blockade of popcorn and hot and sour powder in the dark, cross the front row of a pair of hair snuggling with little lovers, and put the wisdom of "Lonely people are shameful" behind. Just when I wanted to gamble, Chen Xiaoqiang, who had a literary heart, stood on the same side as me. I checked various theaters, and only Pauli intervened at 10:40. "Blueberry Night" is really hard... also allocated in the small hall. Not the original version...

We are destined to see a devastated movie. The dubbing lineup is still very strong: Zhang Zhen, Dong Jie, Gong Li, Jiang Wen, Zhao Wei, Xu Jinglei... But the effect is still super embarrassing. When I got used to the Hong Kong-Taiwan accent, I was instantly drowned by a Beijing film, and then a wave of Henan dialect hit me, and I was about to go crazy!

Think about it: under Jude Law's skin is Zhang Zhen's big tongue; Nora Jones' aura was destroyed by Dong Jie's skinny and unsentimental voice; Natalie Boman's unruly became Zhao Wei's foolishness like a big girl in Beijing. The most amazing thing is the dubbing of the extras. The group at the poker table has a lot of accents from all over the world. Depend on it! Isn't this an American movie? Isn't this an art movie? Can I not have a split personality?

I returned to the body on the screen while strictly eliminating the inherent image of the voice actors behind the scenes in my mind; I was busy switching from the hodgepodge of China to the romantic scene of European lazy jazz; and I was also looking for solace in the beauty of Fujifilm. I watched a movie. I am easy! In fact, my expectation for Jiawei is very simple: as long as he keeps from going backwards, not making progress or making breakthroughs, it doesn't matter. So even if Jude Law's fast food restaurant is similar to the one in "Chongqing Forest,"

Norah Jones and Faye Wong also have a key complex. The trains on the elevated tracks that appear N times are like "Fallen Angels." Li Dawn's house, The policeman in the bar who numbs himself with alcohol every night reminds me of "Number 223" or "Number 663", both of whom happened to experience the separation of their lovers,

The woman's smoking and talking expression immediately reminded me of the killer Li Jiaxin smoking in the tea restaurant with dull eyes. The background was blurred, and it was Takeshi Kaneshiro who was fighting. There is a piece of background music so familiar that it made me jump out of my seat. Obviously, I have used it before! It looks like the OST of "In the Mood for Love," but the instruments and rhythm have been changed. You see, this is all on purpose!

Of course, that song "The Story" is very good. Due to the magical dubbing, this film was regarded as an embarrassing film by me. I believe that without the distraction of the accent, I can fully devote myself to the world of Jiawei'sThis shot on the poster is also the ending of the whole play. From the perspective of composition, it is super beautiful, but it is not feasible from the perspective of practicality.

My Blueberry Nights quotes

  • Elizabeth: Why do you keep them? You should just throw them out.

    Jeremy: No. No, I couldn't do that.

    Elizabeth: Why not?

    Jeremy: If I threw these keys away then those doors would be closed forever and that shouldn't be up to me to decide, should it?

    Elizabeth: I guess I'm just looking for a reason.

    Jeremy: From my observations, sometimes it's better off not knowing, and other times there's no reason to be found.

    Elizabeth: Everything has a reason.

    Jeremy: Hmm. It's like these pies and cakes. At the end of every night, the cheesecake and the apple pie are always completely gone. The peach cobbler and the chocolate mousse cake are nearly finished... but there's always a whole blueberry pie left untouched.

    Elizabeth: So what's wrong with the blueberry pie?

    Jeremy: There's nothing wrong with the blueberry pie. Just... people make other choices. You can't blame the blueberry pie, just... no one wants it.

  • Elizabeth: [wiping her tears] How do you say goodbye to someone you can't imagine living without? I didn't say goodbye.

    [pause]

    Elizabeth: I didn't say anything. I just walked away.
