Cool! I haven't seen such a "reverse" movie in a long time.

Never thought that such a work actually came from Disney !

In my impression, the Disney princess is beautiful and innocent. She is always bullied by her stepmother, which arouses the prince's desire for protection every minute. The "princess" in this film sharked her own mother in order to avenge her stepmother.

Such an exciting story, of course, Amway will give you the first time

This is a story created by the original cast of "Maleficent". This movie is - "Black and White Witch Kuira"

This is a dark adult fairy tale. The whole plot is a classic revenge routine, but it has its own unique story core, with high energy and no urine points throughout.

The story takes place in London in the 1970s. The protagonist's little girl was born a freak, her hair was half black and half white. She has different colors of hair on both sides, and her personality is also divided. She has a kind self named Estella and an evil self named Kuila . Kuira's bizarre personality made her isolated from her classmates at school and forced to transfer.

Estella's mother wanted to send her to the Baroness in London, but was "accidentally" killed by the Baroness's three Dalmatians knocked off a cliff. Estella escaped and saved her life.

From then on, she hid her identity and started a wandering life. She and her comrades who were also homeless, the three of them lived by stealing together. But Estella never stopped her dream - fashion design .

One day, her companion helped her get a job in a fashion store. After entering the store full of joy, I found that my job was a toilet cleaner . In the company, she became an "inferior person" who was disliked by her boss.

The depressed Estella turned the shop window into a punk style after getting drunk.

The baroness, who happened to be in the shop to lecture, saw it. Maxima finally met Bole. Estella transformed herself into the baroness's exclusive designer. But in reality, the Baroness just wanted to turn Estella's talent into her own work. While Estella was working hard for her boss, she found her mother's necklace hanging around her boss's neck.

It turned out that her mother was killed by her boss - just as she was trying to get revenge, the bodyguard who had been by the Baroness's side for many years told Estella that the Baroness was her biological mother.

The baroness, hating her birth for affecting her career , abandoned her. It was the housemaid who adopted her. So, she awakened the inner Kuira and embarked on a high-profile road of revenge in an attempt to defeat the Baroness.

And in the end, "in the way of others", the baroness's three Dalmatians "accidentally" pushed themselves off the cliff. And Kuila has not only become the top of the fashion industry, but also inherited the family property that originally belonged to him.

In addition to the high-level plot of this revenge drama, many scenes in the film are also full of visual impact. The creator behind the devil's head "Black and White Witch Kuira" was inspired by the story of "101 Dalmatians". This devil image with fried black and white hair must be the shadow of many people's childhood.

The original animation is quite scary, but it is full of beauty after real-life interpretation. The film's two leading actresses have both won Oscars, and one is Emma Stone, who won a big win with the musical "La La Land" .

Outside the door of the fashion dinner, there is a punk rock concert... The design of these scenes greatly enriches the theme of the movie about fashion, and behind these dazzling costumes is a strong design team.

"Kuera the Black and White Witch" found 10-time Oscar nominee for best costume design, Jenny Beavan, the film's costume designer.

*She has designed costumes for the main creators in "A Room with a View" and "Mad Max: Fury Road", two films with different styles, and won two Oscars for Best Costume Design. There are also some classic movies, such as "The King's Speech", "Sense and Sensibility" are from her.

One is Emma Thompson, a seasoned veteran . The roles of the two heroines in this film are fashion designers, so the character modeling is also a very big attraction. Kuila is a girl with a talent for design since childhood, so her modeling and manuscripts in the film are very design sense.

In taking down the Baroness, Kuira's first thought was to compete for her place in the fashion world. As a result, she always pops up in various fashion occasions, grabbing the front page headlines in the report. She shows up in unexpected ways - on the catwalk on the top of the Baroness's car; out of the garbage truck, and out of the way;

Kuira appeared in a total of 47 looks in the movie. Her clothing style is a bit gloomy and gothic, mainly black and white. In dramatic scenes, she also chooses red and leather dresses.

To create Kuira's look, stylists scoured studios with huge stockpiles of 1970s clothing, packing a full 10 suitcases of clothes. The baroness in the film has a total of 33 styles, and her clothing uses a lot of gold and silver and reflective fabrics, reflecting her nobility and luxury .

If the Baroness is a classical image of high society, then Kuila is the endorsement of the rebellious street punk, the "back wave" that attempts to subvert the Baroness.

The film also strives to reflect this strong sense of conflict in its modeling. The actors of the two heroines and the costume styling team together bring soul to these two characters.

After the release of "Black and White Witch Kuira", it received a lot of praise, and the producer Disney officially announced that it will be preparing for the production of the sequel. "Fairy tales are all lies " The possibility of a "dark adult fairy tale" such as this one is expected to be planned for a sequel, due to the popularity of the villain protagonist in recent years.

Movies like "Joker," "Maleficent," and "Rocky" that feature villains have all been hugely successful. Mostly because the villain is no longer the image of the producer in the past, and the villain's evil is no longer nonsense, but has a reason to support it. Their images are loved by the public, in large part because they evoke sympathy in the audience.

"Joker" Arthur's frantic laughter was sick, but he didn't get sympathy. And he was shunned by people because of his weird behavior, and when he showed kindness to everyone, he didn't get a little in return. Loki's destruction everywhere stems from the unfair treatment of his family of origin.

Maleficent in "Maleficent" was cut off by the human who pursued the throne. The pain of the body and the trauma of the soul turned Maleficent into a cruel witch full of hatred.

In addition to creating these unique images, these works also let the audience know that the villain's evil deeds all stem from the inner flaws of the characters, and from the "God's perspective" outside the story, they have gained the audience's empathy.

The darkness in the story stays in the movie! In fact, everyone will experience many things in their life, both pain and beauty. And the only thing we can do is stay true to ourselves. May everyone be treated kindly by the world and by others!

    It has a sufficiently smooth and compact plot to provide an uninterrupted starting point for the creation of the show, but the prominence of costumes and visual effects does not make it a purely superficial film, its always sincere narrative and presentation make it unusual. Infectivity. Cruella's words and deeds are all naked. What we see is a pure and innocent heart exposed, fighting against the impure world.

    The perception is too fragmented. While being frequently amazed by the creativity of visual design, while not knowing what the director is struggling to express, Kuila, the protagonist who could have been able to dig deep into the space, eventually became a pure curious shell. After the character and the visual afterimages dissipated, I still didn't understand why she would gradually evolve into the extreme villain in the posterity. But after all, the drama between the two Emma was really wonderful, and the drama was full of tension. Although the overall film is not perfect, it is enough to be remembered.
