Talk about a small detail from the background music: the classical music literacy of the upper class and the lower class

After the heroine entered the so-called "manor" and pushed the door into Athena's house, the second movement flexo version of Mozart's No.23 Piano Concerto happened to be broadcast in the house. It seems to imply that Athena has some taste, and the condescending attitude of the above people is carefully prepared to wait for the arrival of the heroine. Note that this so-called background music actually shows the effect of the sound system in the house. The volume and sound quality change with the position of the heroine. The volume is relatively low.

"Now, do we have to listen to Beethoven or can we fucking get on with it..." The heroine ends the gentle conversation with this line (and further explains that this is the music playing in the house), and the fight begins. The background music also suddenly ended playing the second movement that had not yet been played, and jumped directly to the allegro of the third movement. What is shown is normal volume and sound quality, which is completely background music for the audience. The two women in the fight should no longer hear the unfinished flexo playing in that room. But of course, when I watched it for the second time, I found that my inference was wrong. The allegro of the third movement was actually heard by the heroine and Athena. When Athena dodged a red bottle smashed by a female protagonist, the bottle hit the wall, and it seemed that the huge vibration caused the music to stop playing: the process slowed down and changed the pitch and then the background music of the third movement stopped abruptly, so Presumably it is a record player. After a brief absence of background music, it resumed after a few seconds, but this time it was completely replaced by fast-paced modern music. This is purely background music for the audience.

Well, irrelevant details aside, what the movie wants to say is that the heroine can't tell the difference between Beethoven and Mozart.

I have been expecting Athena to correct the heroine at the last minute. This is not Beethoven but Mozart's music, and I take the opportunity to condescend and despise the heroine, especially after knowing that the woman has read Animal Farm. Very disappointed that this conversation did not happen. For many people, if they don't pay attention and prompts, they may not feel this stalk. They think that the heroine can read books and understand classical music, and is not inferior at all. In fact, as far as the experience of the heroine is concerned, having joined the army, fought wars and been a taxi driver, she should still be a lower-class person in the eyes of the upper class, but not the ignorant and ignorant lower-class person in the eyes of the elite. .

Perhaps this stalk wants to say that Athena, who claims to be a superior person, is also stupid and can't tell the difference between Beethoven and Mozart?

    It is also called the endless joy of competing with Kong Jing, black humor, and bloody wind. Compared with some works that only cut the throat, this 18X is full of sincerity, headshot and landmine kill, and the sensory stimulation is just right. Inside, the political correctness and the extreme right are pinching each other, and the keyboard man and the moral emperor are flying together.

    At first I thought Emma Roberts was the protagonist, yes.
