"Perfect World" - Perfect Emotions in Glimpse

Ola 2022-03-23 09:01:55

As a girl, I always have an inexplicable and unrestrained emotion swaying in my heart for movies. This movie brings tears to my eyes every time I see it at the end. I admit that I am someone who cannot measure the emotional part of a film work. But "Perfect World" did give me such a power. The roles of big men and little men always make my emotional catharsis more natural.

In the face of Costner's perfect performance, since "Dances with Wolves", he has been paying attention to this handsome man who always likes to squint when he talks, an actor, a director, or a perfect image. Reading movies, I rarely use so-called psychological research to keep trying. At least, the appearance of Philip made me watch and watch this movie calmly.

Children are always the most unassailable emotional baggage in a movie. If you ignore his existence, it's like you don't care about the movie before and after. Butch (Costner) and Philip, the emotional place, from walking down the country road, the little man in the spooky costume of the ghost, goes to lead after tacitly acquiescing to the "trick or treat" move The man's hand, along the way, not only gave the audience a back view, but also moved. After the familiarity, Butch's encouragement and love for Philip gave him another responsibility.

Obviously, constructing such a utopian emotional world is naturally an illusory and easily broken. After watching the movie, I naturally know that at the end, I was killed by some inexplicable suspicion of this or that. However, I still hope to appreciate the contemplation of freedom, belief, or life in the larger scope given in this perfect emotion, while ignoring such a controversial and obvious ending.

In addition to this profound motif, the film scene is more like a road movie. Whether it is Butch's Mercedes-Benz as a fugitive, or the stalking of police detective Reid, they are all galloping along the road. In the field of vision of the two men, as the audience, what the audience follows is some exchanges between the two people who are gradually entering the situation, except for the dialogue. For example, after Philip's thrilling acceleration and braking, Butch gave a positive look; for example, in the bar, Philip door The look of the eyes in the slit; and the struggle in Philip's eyes before the shooting, which we can't let go of except for the tears.

Of course, the dialogue between the two made the audience truly immersed in a kind of father-son emotional communication, affirmed Butch's affirmation of Philip, and continued the true love that Butch has continued to Philip. "Trust is earned", perhaps this sentence is understandable to the audience, but for Butch, it is of great significance. When he saw his six-year-old being beaten by his father, it also stimulated his innermost childhood emotions. It's a catharsis, and it's actually a protest. In the face of the so-called people who are just sleeping, he can walk away completely, but he didn't. Here, it is necessary to mention the frequent music in movies.

Whether it is music or dancing, such brisk things are somehow out of place when a fugitive escapes. But for the audience, no, there is no such so-called dissonance factor at all. On the contrary, that dance, let us also begin to discover the expectations of Butch's heart for a better life in the future, Las Vegas, where there is In the new life, there is his father, but also music and dancing. What he has not given up is his longing for life. We are relieved.

This film, which was rated as the best film in 1993 by "Cinebook", really brought a deep touch to the audience. In addition to the impeccable acting skills of the actors, the director also chose a film that actually seems to be a little bit different now. It is a clichéd story arrangement, but it is undeniable that the innocent eyes of this little man, Philip, endow the film with too many impeccable emotional recollections. Whether it is eyes, or tears, blurred my eyes.

Can't there be an exception before the law? Maybe there is, maybe never. If there were a perfect world ahead, the laws might never work. Butch said: Let's make it clear that stealing is wrong. But if you need it but don't have the money to buy it, it doesn't matter if you borrow it. This is called a special case. In the face of the special case, Philip has fulfilled many dreams that he has not fulfilled, such as roller coasters, eating cotton candy, riding a rocket ship... In the eyes of children, everything is a building factor in a perfect world. The look in his eyes when he raised his gun told us: he was afraid that Butch would hurt others again. He ran and took Butch's hand, hoping to return to the real world together, and he told Butch: Mom is a good mom... All of this makes the situation silent.

There are some undeniable farce elements interspersed in the pastoral scenery, but it is understandable, that is the necessity of the film for the plot, we saw the governor's car crash in the woods; we saw the embarrassed Bao Bao who helped Butch. Bo; we heard the last words of the friendly store clerk: Little bastard... It is understandable, there will be wind blowing in the Mercedes-Benz, and those who pass the corners of the eyes are sympathetic, immersed, and the corners of the mouth are raised, and there are those who are slightly shocked. Emotional power.
