Starring is Michelle Williams, the former Michelle Ledger (Heath Ledger's on-screen wife). I always felt that she was not beautiful enough, vulgar, and even a little village. In "Brokeback Mountain", she only gave me the feeling of a civilian woman, except for a snow-white plump body. There is really not much in appearance. The saving grace is far less than a glimpse of Anne Hathaway, who plays the wife of another male lead, with long ice-blond hair and flaming red lips. But the charm of Hollywood lies in the fact that good-looking actors do not necessarily act well, and the most beautiful are often named as vases. In fact, in "Brokeback Mountain", her inner drama is quite outstanding, forbearance, generosity, knowing that her husband is GAY but can't bear to expose the beautiful family lie. GAY is innocent, GAY's wife is really pitiful. She took this role to the core.
Perhaps in Hollywood, in the hearts of men all over the world, Monroe will always be a legend, and whoever plays it will be controversial. Taking such a role on the cusp of the storm is a choice that requires twelve points of courage. Success or failure, the performance is good, the film contract, money, and honor come one after another. Monroe fans, a piece of infamy from film critics. Looking at today's Hollywood, there may be two actors of the right age who belong to the Appearance Association. The American beauty Scarlett Johansson and the nightclub girl Lindsay Lohan are both strong in stature and outstanding in temperament. But the filmmakers did not find them both, and the specific considerations are unknown, but I think the reasons are as follows: Scarlett is too much of a vase, and Lindsay is too decadent. Even so, Michelle played this role, which made people sweat for her from the heart.
After watching the movie for an hour and a half, I finally understood why Michelle could compete with Aunt May in the Oscar for best actress with this film. The film comes from a memory, a story about first love, idol, goddess. Colin Clark, a child from a good background who can graduate from Eton College (Prince William's alma mater), must be rich or expensive. He seems to have relatives with Clark Gable, but he wants to continue his movie dream. , So when I was 23 years old, I met my goddess, Marilyn Monroe, who was 30 years old, and started a short but enough love for a lifetime. If there is love between the two.
Monroe is a symbol of sexiness, a weather vane, with even bones and flesh, and it goes without saying that her skin is creamy, and even the corners of her eyes and brows are full of style. Her face, in fact, does not conform to the traditional Western aesthetics, but it is breathtaking and unforgettable at a glance. I think Shu Qi also has this quality. Life is like a play, and it came to an end at the most beautiful time. The mistress of the most powerful man in the world, but no one has the heart to criticize her. Who has the heart to criticize her? She is so fragile, pitiful, dependent on drugs and alcohol for life, always looking for a spiritual guide and comfort, several miscarriages, lifeless, and even death is so confusing. Michelle just performed all her sadness, the shadow that no one could see under her dazzling halo. Even the provocative corners of her mouth when she smiles, the curvature of her fingers, and the curvature of her hips when she walks, are all fake. Looking at Michelle, she didn't have the characteristics of Monroe at all. When I watched this film, I clearly felt that it was Monroe. In the clouds and mist, she was charming, and her eyes were always innocent, with a frown and a smile. It is said that the soul of a child living in the body of a mature woman is the most charming, and that is the case with Monroe. Michelle's Monroe, let me forget, this is a biographical film, I thought, this is a documentary, it is the true portrayal of that peerless actress.
The film tells about the period when Monroe and her third playwright husband got married, and went to the UK to film "The Dragon and the Phoenix". The symbol of Monroe's sexy actress, she is sadly regarded as just an actress like a sexy vase. Lawrence's wife is the famous Vivien Leigh, but Vivien Leigh was 43 years old that year, her youth has passed away, and she is no longer the vivid Hao Scarlett on the screen. Monroe starring in the movie with her husband gave her an unprecedented sense of crisis, and even sent our poor hero, Colin, to spy on Monroe. Accidentally, Colin's first love was achieved.
Monroe worked hard and was eager to dig out the role she played. In fact, she has such beauty and does not need such acting skills at all, but her stubbornness in her bones often makes her fall into the horns of bullshit. The poor male protagonist approached her again and again, for work and other, seeing her crying, seeing her bathing naked, seeing her dependent on drugs, the goddess present, within reach, and Monroe also needs such love, Simple, not mixed with sophistication, the love of a 23-year-old man. Like a moth to a fire, Colin knew that if she came here for a while, maybe he would miss her for a lifetime. But it still fell like thunder and fire, and even disregarding the tearful eyes of his costume assistant (Emma Watson) who liked him, he spent a week with her, a paradise-like love.
Going out together, swimming naked in the canal, visiting her alma mater, going to Windsor Castle, she is not a goddess, not an actress, just like a girl with her first love, and he is the most suitable male companion around her. Going all the way, forgetting that it was dark and that Monroe was married at the time, hoping to take her away, away from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood, and be the most ordinary amateur couple. It was not until Monroe had a miscarriage that the boy suddenly remembered that this woman was the hottest star in the world, and the child in her womb belonged to another man who was legally her husband, and she was only one of Monroe's Dream, when the play is over and the curtain falls, everything will end and return to the original point.
It is an impossible tragedy in itself, but the meaning of first love is that everything is beautiful when we recall it. In the end, Colin reluctantly asked her, can I take you away? Away from it all, in the UK, we start over. Knowing that it is impossible, the irreversible sadness is still a period of time, waiting for an answer that will break my heart.
There is only one Monroe, but in the eyes of a thousand people, there are a thousand Monroes. I remember an English reading review in high school. The teacher at the time asked, comparing Monroe to candle in the wind, why? On that day, I replied as if I had not woken up, describing all things that are beautiful and easy to dissipate. Later, the word was frequently used in commemorative articles in memory of Princess Diana. Because of my laziness, my English is not good, but fortunately, my Chinese is not bad. I think that I was able to answer accurately that year because the language was well understood, and the pursuit of a beautiful heart has no borders.
Some people may say that Michelle's expressive performance is because she has a body very similar to Monroe, and Hollywood's expressive makeup skills. However, I secretly thought that it wasn't anyone who dyed blond hair and who had a black mole could pretend to be a charming Monroe. It's not like the American version of the Queen Mother. Perhaps, the same heartbreak (FOR Heath Ledger) and the same star-studded situation made her play Monroe alive. There is an old Chinese saying that it is difficult to paint a dragon and a tiger, let alone a sexy which is difficult to describe. Michelle is undoubtedly the most accurate in my opinion so far, just like Maggie Cheung is to Ruan Lingyu.
Although Michelle lost to Meryl Streep, she believes that she will be able to print her name on the Avenue of Stars in the near future.
