After watching "Yves Saint Laurent", I immediately recommended it to my friends. The reason for the recommendation is not only the story, but also because of the tone of the whole film, so warm and textured, the texture of the film. It turned out that the knowledge of Saint Laurent was limited to clothing brands, but now through a movie, it is the condensed life of a sensitive and talented person.
Many people criticized the film as having only some unreliable anecdotal foundations except for a few real costume shows. But I was deeply moved by the "Pierre" portrayed in the movie. No matter how many emotions come and go, and the ups and downs of his career, he is always the one who is always by his side. Since the day they met in 1958, the friendship that lasted 50 years has been shared through thick and thin, and it has never stopped until the day of Saint Laurent's death.
The film begins with "Pierre" taking care of the artwork left by Yves in the world alone, and the voice-over is, "Today I'm going to sell some of our collections, most of them are in pairs, because we share Picking, appreciating. A pair makes sense, now I'm the only one left, I can't face them anymore... You love beautiful things, Yves. We don't know where the taste comes from. Maybe it's intuition, no one can Teach you, no matter where you come from, this is what we are born with."
This businessman, this businessman who only believes in mainstream art, literature, and painting, has never recognized fashion as art before, but because he fell in love with a fashion designer, he has spent his life with a fashion designer. It's fate. He was by his side, so far. When he was tortured by military service, when he was fighting against power, when he was negotiating a difficult business, when the scenery was infinite, when he was behind the curtain of fashion shows; when he fell in love with a woman, when he fell in love with a handsome man, when he took drugs , when he is vulnerable, when he needs to be isolated, when he is roaring... life is very complicated, people's feelings are more complicated, you may be moved by many people, you can also fall in love with many people, you may want a lot, have access to Lost again, but what is it that makes people unbearable to leave, and what is the reason? Perhaps, Yves once said to him, "I love him, but you are the love of my life."
The film's winning record:
French Caesar Award - Best Actor
and "The Grand Budapest Hotel", in this film The smallest roles are big stars.
The movie is positioned as a musical comedy. The design, costumes and performances of the whole film are full of form, which is both absurd and real, funny and serious. In my opinion, this film is a feast of visuals and music, and the director has used the shooting to the extreme with his aesthetics and artistic sense. It's a wonderful trip to the super-luxury Europe that is disappearing day by day. The colorful pictures are like watercolor postcards, the smooth and diverse camera movements bring fresh and rich perspectives to the audience, the real "dream feeling" created by the legendary characters and absurd performances, and the soundtrack from Desplat, closely fitting Narrative and good enough, especially the section on the snowy mountain is very impressive.
Director and cinematographer Robert Yeoman shot different eras with different aspect ratios.
The 16:9 widescreen was used in the 1960s, the prevailing 1.37:1 standard ratio was used in the 1930s, and the 1.85:1 academic widescreen was used in the 1980s. The conversion of proportions brings different intuitive feelings about the three eras.
Therefore, how can you miss an entertaining adult "fairy tale carnival" movie presented by beautiful pictures, exaggerated and vivid performances, and stars? How can we not experience the director's feelings of paying tribute to European culture and art with exquisite, elegant and gorgeous expressions?
