Effie's experience teaches us a lesson in the impermanence of life.
She's not a likable character in this movie.
Willful, complacent, and proud like a cat that has caught a mouse.
She sings well and has strength, so that you can't even notice that the man you like doesn't like you.
I have big dreams, so I refuse to give in.
Then, reality hit her hard.
The lead singer was replaced by Tina. It doesn't matter whether you sing well or not, what the market needs is beauty. Later, when she rushed to the scene in a hurry, she found that she could not even secure her status as a backup singer. It turned out that for the group, she was a dispensable role.
The feeling for her is not disgust, but rather sadness.
We consider ourselves unique and talented. One day, God or something, nudge you to wake up and snap that stop dreaming, you're nothing. Schools and parents teach us to become elites, but how many elites are there in this vast world?
Effie finally makes a comeback, which can be regarded as the comfort of the movie.
Pretty Tina is a canary in Curtis's cage.
Curtis said he loved her.
Curtis has the same attitude towards music.
Love music.
for money.
Don't talk to him about thoughts, souls. All have to make way for money.
Abandoned and desperate by him, Jimmy chose to die.
Tina bravely and soberly left him to live her life.
Tina's "listen" is really soul-stirring.
