Mom, you are fucking rock n roll

I can't write movie reviews, but I haven't written for a long time and want to talk.
The thing that drives me crazy the most is that the "bang--" at the beginning of the film is not followed by A hard day's night. For that, 0 points for the soundtrack.


The title comes from the movie where Mimi tells Lennon that his mother had abandoned marriage time and time again for the ridiculous "for company" and Lennon looked at her mother and said "Rock n roll, Mom." "It seems that the film wants to express Lennon's reaction when he encounters a sad story in reality. For example, when Uncle George suddenly passed away at the beginning, Mimi calmly told John when he came back from the hospital that his uncle had passed away. Lennon's first reaction, He laughed out loud as if he had heard a joke. But actually, I think it's more like Paul McCartney's personality, Paul is the kind of guy who hides his true feelings when something big goes wrong, then jokes about locking himself in the studio for a miserable day People, and John Lennon, who we are admired by millions of people, will put all these unhappy and unpleasant things into a new folder in his brain, and name it "Never Open" and maybe set it to hide. condition.


I kind of wonder how Mimi would react if she saw this movie? You must know that in Lennon's description, Mimi is actually a person who likes to look like an upper-class figure to distinguish himself from the ordinary middle class. Tea can see it) a little vain, a little pretentious, a little harsh, but he is 100% fond of Lennon, and he gave Lennon a family life like a mother when he was not pregnant. Although in Lennon's own description, Mimi is particularly annoying, especially in charge, and is still an old stubborn, he has to point fingers at his clothes, glasses and even choosing a girlfriend. Pregnant girlfriend Cynthia doesn't seem to get much special treatment from Mimi either. But OMG, she also tolerated how much wrong with the pervert Lennon! ! Especially when Lennon told her at the end of the film that he and his band were going to try their luck in Hamburg, Germany, Mimi lowered her head and recited "Hamburg, Hamburg" twice. In her old stubborn heart, she probably would never understand Column. Why is Lennon obsessed with rock music instead of Tchaikovsky and Bach, I don't understand why Lennon can't just be content with playing a few times at the college festival, and go to a name that he has never been to and it's still called Hamburg A place to waste his young life on a career that no one can predict will have a future. This movie is so good for Mimi. Kristin Scott Thomas and Anne-Marie Duff are really the backbone of the movie, and if this movie gave me a new understanding of Julia and Mimi, these two actors are definitely the main reason. Anyway, the performance of the band actors doesn't affect my true opinion of the band members.


The film doesn't talk about the band's founding all the way to its success in Hamburg, or even the band's name has been changed several times. In his life, Mr.Right Paul McCartney formed their band." However, he took the line of family affection and played sensational cards. I was expecting to see them dreaming of a ridiculous rock star together when they were young~ I would have liked to see that ambiguous relationship between Paul and Lennon~ But the focus of the film is on the family environment~

Lennon's mother, Julia, likes rock and roll, likes Elvis, and successfully influenced Lennon. She lay on the sofa and hugged Lennon and listened to the record player. She and Lennon went to see Elvis' movies together. Dancing to the jazz music in the pub, (so let Lennon become a person with an Oedipus complex)
Speaking of Lennon's Oedipus complex, Julia's departure hit him the more he missed and beautified his mother. The image in his memory, and then Mimi's care Youjia is the same as in the movie. He will contact Mimi every week. After leaving Mimi, Paul, and then Yoko Ono~ In short, this bastard Lennon is constantly looking for someone Maternal outbursts give themselves warmth.


I only knew these two leading actresses before watching the movie. I don't know about the other people, including their gossip. Now that I know it, I will sigh~ No wonder it's Qiong Yao's sensational route! BTW, the soundtrack is really bad.

    I don't like Mrs. England, but many movies like Mr.Sandman's song, it sounds good in Mr.Nobody
