But in fact, in addition to being a great man, Columbus is also a famous city known by the world as "one of the seven smartest cities in the world".
According to Xiang Xue, the reason why Columbus, Indiana, USA is called the city of wisdom, is not unrelated to its more than 60 famous buildings. In the United States, Columbus is the sixth most architectural city after Chicago, New York, San Francisco, Boston and Washington.
And the movie "In Columbus" is a peculiar movie that makes people play a supporting role in architecture.
The film tells the story of a man and woman of different races who get to know each other, care for each other, and love each other because of their obsession with architecture. The heroine Kathy and the hero Kim come from different countries, have received different educations, and are even in different classes, but because of the architecture, they can open up to each other and chat freely.
In the film "In Columbus," we followed Kathy and Kim as they talked about their heartbreak and watched the stunning architecture of Columbus with them.
In Jin's heart, because of the unexpected accident of the architect's father, he was really grumpy about coming to Columbus. He believed that his father's illness hindered his desire for freedom.
In Kathy's heart, because of her mother (who used to be a drug addict), she had to give up the opportunity to go out to study, and she was not without complaints. In other words, she is resenting her incompetence and ignorance, and she is afraid of the collision between dreams and reality.
Just looking at the psychology of the hero and heroine, we know that their encounter is accidental, but also inevitable.
Not only that, just as netizens commented, the handling of the relationship between father and son, mother and daughter, simply echoes the symmetry in architectural aesthetics, "exquisite but not fancy", embedding beautiful architecture into the relationship between characters. , "constituting novelty, full of beauty".
As Casey introduces King to Columbus' architecture, the two lonely souls finally touch each other and find a way to reconcile themselves and their families in architecture and emotion.
After a walk in "In Columbus", what we can see is not only the emptiness and beauty of the building, but more, we can also listen to our inner voice.
It seems that a movie warms up those cold and hard buildings. Watching this film, you can say that your heart knot is opened in architectural aesthetics, and you can also say that your sadness is healed in beautiful architecture. The peculiarity of this film is that it is both a film with architecture as the protagonist and a healing song that can melt people's hearts.
If you have to ask Xiang Xue to tell the shortcomings of this film, then Xiang Xue thinks that because the film focuses on architecture, its narrative rhythm and plot rhythm are relatively slow. However, slowness also has the advantage of being slow. We can appreciate the beautiful, elegant, and exquisite architectural groups in Columbus through the screen and every frame of the film.
A warm movie that shows us the architecture of Columbus, just like the morning sun pouring out to us, we can't say it is perfect and excellent, but watching this movie, we can find that Columbus is really better than we imagined, Much more beautiful!
