Vivian hates men, does not trust others, and proves the despicableness of human nature by collecting vicious news. No one can deny the one-sidedness and narrow-mindedness of this subconscious behavior, but Vivienne needs them, she needs them to be sure that society is dark, and then she can proudly say "I knew it was so".

For the answer in her heart, she devoted her life to looking for proof, and tried to increase the number of samples to make "one-sided" "comprehensive". The newspapers she collected could fill a two-car garage, carry it with her even if she moved, and she even fumed when her employer took some to paint the walls.

She effectively but inefficiently balances the evil thoughts in her heart, at the cost of becoming apathetic and closing her heart. It's not hard to see that she had a bad past.

However, her photos, or in other words, her creations, are full of romance, humor, absurdity, compassion, and warmth, but there is no damage or injury.

Fortunately, she came across photography.

The practical significance of photography to her, unlike others, is not as a tool to get rid of mediocrity, but to build an ideal and orderly world for her and lead her to escape from the cruel society. Just like the attic that does not let other people enter in reality, in the photography space, she also does not want people around her to spy on her works.

The saddest part in the film is that Vivian wanted to chat with a few old friends, but she found that her friends were unavailable, leaving a regret. The most touching scene is undoubtedly the exhibition of her works in her hometown. Many elderly people came to watch and pointed to the photos to retrieve their memories of the past. Recording the present time through images makes it a tool to connect the past and the future. This is the meaning of photography to all human beings.

For a long time in the second semester of high school, I would skip class and go to the Fangsuo on Chunxi Road, sitting on the floor and browsing various photo albums. ① The movie is called Searching for Vivienne Maier, and the film is actually the process of searching. If you watch it with the mentality of understanding her, of course, you will feel that it has not met your expectations. This is not the problem of the movie. The material collection in the early stage and the editing skills in the later stage are excellent, leading the audience to approach the MissMystery who is hidden in the city. ②Desire to be close to people but subconsciously resist others, want to participate in political and social activities but always be trapped in the status of a lowly nanny - all kinds of ambivalence have brought Vivian's lifelong loneliness, and also made her great photos. . Her photographs always accurately capture the incongruities of life and the frailties of human nature, sometimes brimming with warm colors, but always with a down-to-earth and sincere perspective. It touched me. The praise of future generations and the evaluation of neighbors may not be important to Vivian, because she has lived her legendary life perfectly.

"Through photography, you don't say that you lose any past" ———— Now, you can photograph anything in front of you, and you can watch, listen, and feel whatever you are curious about because you have to understand that time is fleeting. When I missed a day of class, I said it was to find [Vivienne Meier]; if she was alive, she would definitely not allow such a big exposure, it is estimated that she would collapse on the spot, and 80% will see you directly in court! ————— ? 2013·USA【July【➊】】【2020 ▲ 350】【≈ 83 minutes】【Original ★ Chinese Subtitles】【⭐】◀▶【⭐⭐⭐】
