It is a biographical film with a very good actor and a well-directed director, and all the actors do not pull their hips. The heroine is naturally great. After watching her presentation, I completely understand why everyone loves Monroe. The little freckles also play the role of a pure tool person very well. The camera is really straightforward, maybe this is Director's intention?
But after watching the movie, I personally know a little more about Monroe, and I also know why people don't comment on her acting skills at all. Because she is completely out of the scope of acting, she is a superstar herself, and if her personal charm can penetrate the screen and point directly to people's hearts, the charm in life will be many times more. She knows exactly how charming she is, even with strangers, with "I want you to like me and I know you will" in her frown and smile. Norma Jean has never been in a role in a movie, whenever and wherever she is playing "Marilyn Monroe" - a radiant sex symbol. She has no space for herself (whether in life or in her heart), like a hollow china vase, so she frantically grabs love and approval from those around her and extravagantly wants to fill herself up. But people with broken hearts, no matter how much love they can't fill, will only make those around them tired and eventually leave her.
The mentality of the hero and heroine of You Long Xi Feng is also very interesting. After being a big star for a long time, he will want to be an actor to prove that he is not a vase. After all, attacks on actors are aimed at acting skills, and attacks on stars are aimed at themselves. In the same way, an actor wants to be a big star after a long time, trying to prove that it is not that he performed well at one time, but that what he does will be attractive enough that everyone loves it. This is a paradox.
