. It’s the first time I know who Adam Cooper is in this movie. He ended the show in the form of a period. A silhouette that jumps up, close my eyes, I I can still see that moment. If I were to make a poster for "Billy Elliot", I asked myself if I would definitely abandon the scene of young Billy Elliot dancing in the snow at Christmas and use Adam’s elegant and powerful Silhouette in the air? For me, this abrupt halt at the end made what was originally just a pure inspirational film suddenly tender, the tenderness of living, and the tenderness of art.
Thanks to the director Stephen Daldry, who didn't follow the common sense to do all kinds of close-up renderings for Adam Cooper. It is rare for a movie to sublimate without haste at the end. It turns out that Stephen Daldry is the director of "The Moment". I still have the bad problem of being criticized by professional fans of only watching the movie and not going to the director. However, I still feel that I can finish watching the movie and feel good is good, and then I see that the director has also made a movie he likes, that kind of " It turned out to be like this" and suddenly realized how precious and pure it is.
To be honest, who hasn't seen inspirational films that are similar in size and size? If "Billy Elliot" is to be classified, in my movie list, it should belong to the same kind of film as "The Pianist on the Sea". It is an inspirational film, but because the protagonist is a genius, the plot focuses on the protagonist’s environment and experience. a bit more. The difference between Billy Elliot and 1900 in "The Pianist on the Sea" is that the director portrays young geniuses, and the same part is that they all live in a rough and powerful environment-the foundation of 1900 is that they are constantly being used daily. The sun’s sea breeze blows away youth and self-conscious sailors. The foundation of Billy Elliot is the coal miner who always wants to vent in the turmoil. Both types of people have lost the ability to express, and both have excessive ruggedness and strength. The logic of solving the problem.
The most significant difference between geniuses and ordinary people is that once geniuses find their own piece of sky, no matter how the situation changes, they will involuntarily move forward, as if driven by fate. But this is not true for ordinary people. Ordinary people need to consider their daily livelihoods, they need to consider the eyes of those around them, and they need to measure the cost-effectiveness between gains and losses. Before the young Billy could find his own sky, he was just as sensitive as many teenagers in his neighbourhood. Stealing my brother’s walkman to listen to it will unconsciously jump to the melody; take care of the unconscious grandma, take 50 pence a day to go to boxing lessons that father and brother think “men should be able to do”; sometimes they turn on the piano left by mother Playing some untuned tunes, it is a pity that he has no impression of his mother's alive memories. Thinking of this, he can't help but feel a little sad. At that time, the coal miners in the town were on strike. My father and brother were still the main force in the strike. They were either beating or being beaten. Under the conditions of the Great Depression, no one had a hard time. In such a big environment, Billy's immature and sensitive is even more lonely and lonely. Although he doesn't like boxing, he also knows the difficulty of 50 pence. The boxing gloves are still handed down from the family. This was the life of a genius when it was not inspired. The director rendered it noisy, chaotic, and helpless, and it was a gray winter in a coal mine town.
Occasionally, perhaps also a destined moment, Billy saw what ballet was because of the shared use of the classroom. At that moment, the director dealt with it, not that Billy met Ballet, but that Ballet finally found Billy, unable to speak. He began to secretly transfer 50 pence to the ballet teacher, pretending to wear boxing gloves to go to class. In fact, the moment he changed his shoes, he felt the blood boil with ease. Billy doesn't care if he is dancing with a group of girls. For him, only the moment of dancing is a moment of freedom.
Chinese people like to say, "Heaven will give you power to the people, you must first pain your mind and bones." Billy's ballet dance was discovered by his father, and the family turned upside down. The elder brother thinks that his younger brother is a sissy. Boys learn such things as ballet. Although the father loves his son, but because he can't express it, he can only express his hatred of iron and steel to cover up his failure to become a father. Billy was stopped for the 50 pence, even if the dance teacher Wilkinson came and told Billy's father that the child was a seed. The gray tone became deeper, and the first snow of winter was about to come down.
Mrs. Wilkinson, the ballet teacher, was not likable at first. Tired and old, wearing loose and untextured clothes, although he hums nicely when teaching dance steps, he always likes to smoke. Later, I learned that she too had a dream. Living in a big house, the husband is a drunkard. He takes his daughter, and under difficult current events, he has to teach his children to dance and earn money to raise a family. Unexpectedly, the more I saw it, the more I was moved by this character. It can be said that she is actually Billy's enlightenment teacher, and also an important promoter of motivating her to embark on the path of ballet art. She even thought that if Billy's father refused to take the child to the Royal Ballet Academy for exams, she would take him with her own money. Although Mrs. Wilkinson can no longer realize any dreams, she also knows that her daughter has no talent in ballet. Even if Billy gives up, it is not that she is sorry for the child, but that she feels sorry for herself at all. To some extent, Billy has also become her trustee.
On Christmas Eve when the snow fell, a turning point appeared. The father, who saw his son’s talent, learned from the pain, and in any case did not want other people to pay for his own money to take his son to study. The smashing of the piano made me startled at first, and then I realized that my family really had no money. I had to sell my deceased mother’s jewelry, and I had to smash the piano to have wood to make a fire. Later, my father and brother left the strike team and became traitors to the union, and walked down the mine with tears in tears. Tears shed at this time. Although there are always people in this world who look rough and lose the ability to express themselves, they also have the most simple love deep in their hearts.
Through a snowfall, the director resolved the gray backlog. You see, genius is not easy, and genius is not always born with a golden key. Life is cruel. Whether you live in the past or in the present, there are always unspeakable difficulties, but tomorrow is a new day. Whether you are a genius or an ordinary person, you still have to live the life you deserve.
After that, those who taught dance continued to teach dance, those who were miners continued to be miners, the town was still the same, but Billy really entered the world of art that belonged to him.
I didn't expect Adam Cooper to appear. I thought the movie would end when Billy was admitted. This volley silhouette gives people a powerful shock, and you can't help feeling that it turns out that ballet can be so masculine and full of power. This kind of ending gives the film a full artistic imagination, and all the previous tribulations are just like necessary steps in the cultivation process, becoming insignificant. I use this to encourage myself and do it in the direction guided by my heart. We are not all geniuses, but we are not so sorry when we are old.
