Analysis from the point of view of spelling only

Rickey 2022-03-25 09:01:23

As an inspirational film, I have to admit that it is still the same old-fashioned way of thinking: the protagonist is very idle, talented and unmotivated; one day, the protagonist meets an expert, or something happened to someone close to him; the protagonist has since then Study hard; in the end, the protagonist achieves great achievements.

If you only look at the structure, I believe that no one will have any expectations for the film. In fact, the success of Akira and the Spelling Bee has nothing to do with the plot. The analysis of this film is mainly about the details.

No one should forget this "spelling bee" anytime soon. The incomparable "perverted" word—don't speak English, never heard of Chinese—is the thread that runs through the film. 26 swirling letters are dizzying. All Akira had to do was memorize their combinations, or be able to deduce them—as her trainer taught her.

It's like deciphering a code composed of letters - Greek and Latin roots intertwined, involving professional terms in medicine, biology, geography, astronomy and many other fields. For example, "xanthosis" that has become a key word, "Scheherazadian", "pulchritude", "staphylococcus", "logorrhea" that appeared in the last round...even those that may not be found in Webster's dictionary. word. If we're going to spell these words, the questioner wins.

All we could do was sit in front of the screen and stare blankly at Akira, who was on stage with his back to his back. Well, at this time, please be full of praise, because soon there will be a strong opponent: Dylan.

No matter what he looks like, I don't say that the actor himself is a half-blood of the Philippines and the three European countries, or whether there is an "anti-China" element in it. At least, from an artistic point of view, Dylan is the opposite of Akira's "free-range teaching", but he's upright, hardworking (for those words), and persevering -- not everyone can Insist on competing in the same competition three years in a row and being unhappy with the status of being a runner-up, whether forced or voluntary.

If this is really regarded as a project to decipher the alphabetic code, Akira can get the correct answer through precise calculation, and Dylan just relies on the powerful computer capacity to find the matching answer from Curry. In terms of work efficiency, Akira is slightly higher. But Dylan relies on three years of experience. At this stage, the strength of the two is still comparable. Perhaps having two titles at the same time is the best outcome for them.

Akeelah and the Bee quotes

  • [last lines]

    Akeelah: You know that feeling where everything feels right? Where you don't have to worry about tomorrow or yesterday, where you feel safe and know you're doing the best you can? There's a word for that, it's called love. L-O-V-E.

  • Mr. Welch: So whoever wins the school bee today gets to represent Crenshaw at the district bee next month.

    Akeelah: Why would anybody want to represent a school where they can't even put doors on the toilet stalls?

    [coughing]

    Mr. Welch: Akeelah, if we can't show students can perform, we're not going to have money for books, let alone bathroom doors.

    [pause]

    Mr. Welch: Now, I want you to do the bee today, okay?

    Akeelah: So everyone can call me a freak and a brainiac? No, I ain't down for no spelling bee.

    Mr. Welch: Well, maybe you'd be down for spending the rest of the semester in detention for all your absences?
