1 I like the nagging opening of the film. A nagging stop-motion animation is not only the inner reaction of the male protagonist, but also sets a comedic tone for the film.
2 The title is Dying Girl. The hero also mentioned several times that his boring movie killed a girl, but this feeling of no money here makes me look forward to the ending of a comedy. It seems Pretending not to care, not avoiding taboos, but to adjust the heavier sadness in my heart. When the heroine really left, the touch was not weakened by a joke.
3 The deliberate tribute to the classics in the film is impressive, and it is also a place where the laughter is easy to concentrate. I believe this kind of technique is easier for movie lovers to feel the resonance. Compared with the clever tribute or imitating plagiarism in other movies, this silly feeling is even more impressive.
4 The video that the girl watched before she died, we may not be able to watch it in peacetime. The stream of consciousness needs the moment of consciousness resonance. When the doctors and nurses’ mother rushed in for rescue, the brilliant light of the projector shone on the girl’s head, on the wall, and on the boy’s face. The girl’s wide-open eyes did not divert her eyes (with a glance at her mother), nor did she close it. . That desire and greed is moving. What is the last thing you learn when you die, the movie? life? vitality? The male protagonist stood on the opposite side and was at a loss. The image cast on his face seemed to have become the last picture captured by the girl, but I don’t know whether the girl is reluctant or relieved of all this, but the complex emotions and gorgeousness The picture makes me forget to think about the specific feelings at that moment, but a complex emotion rushes over. The complex and indescribable image and picture, although the actual meaning is not clear, but at this moment, cooperate with this diffuse My music, a touch of sorrow, and greed for beautiful things are all imprinted in my mind.
The shots repeatedly cut between the girl’s face and the girl’s subjectivity. At first, the girl was relatively close-up, and incidentally explained the rescue of medical staff, the touch of the mother, the girl’s perspective, the front wall, the image, and the helpless and sad male protagonist. Then came close-ups of the girl’s face many times, the eyes widened and the images progressed, and the rhythm of the music became rushed. With the sound of the dribbling pulse, it gave me a girl’s dying, this last moment. The desire and absorption of beauty is extremely strong. After that, the protagonist was pushed out the door, and the narrator confessed that the girl died in the end. Switching back to the room, the lens is closer, the presence of the nurse’s mother is weakened, the sound of the medical tools is also weakened, but the music and images are stronger, and it is no longer visible that it is projected on the wall. All I see are strong colors and vibrating elements, and everything advances in a simpler way. The girl may no longer be an expectation of life at this moment, but may just be the pure beauty brought to people by movies and feelings. I like this paragraph very much, although I usually dislike inexplicable works of art, I also have no patience to watch the video works that I can't move deeply. But in this movie, this paragraph is very contagious.
5 The climax of the film's emotions. Previously, the boy’s history teacher buried the foreshadowing. The teacher only learned about his father after his father died. This is also where the boy enters the girl’s world more after the girl’s death. It reminds me of the life of the despised pine nut, looking for it. The past and life details of the dead are very moving.
The wallpaper, books, and book corners of the girl’s room are well hidden. These details have never been mentioned before, but the content covered in it, paper-cutting, and squirrels are all mentioned by the girl before her death. After the girl’s death, a little bit One point was excavated and the boy was placed in it. These constitute the girl's spiritual world, and it also means that although the girl died, she did not leave. The beauty that cannot be reproduced is not inferior to the movies made by boys for girls.
The girl died in the boy's movie, and the boy shed tears in the world created by the girl. It may not be love between them, but they have created the most beautiful things for each other.
