1. Ground-fried chicken stalks. Tony gave Shirley's strong Amway the fried chicken that blacks love to eat. At first, Shirley looked disgusted, and then he ate it with his orchid finger (this scene is absolutely famous), and then there was a tour of the magnificent restaurant that Shirley loved. The food is actually fried chicken. The elegant atmosphere and the friendly fried chicken are in contrast to cuteness.
2. I want to stay but I am embarrassed to say it. At one station, Tony met a friend in New York and chatted in Italian. The friend slandered the black and said that he wanted to introduce Tony to work. They all thought Shirley could not understand. When Tony went out to the bar at night, Shirley stopped him. Shirley praised Tony in Italian and promised to give him a promotion and salary increase. It turned out that he could understand, because he was afraid of Tony leaving him, and he was embarrassed to keep it. Tony saw through his mind for a moment, letting him rest assured that he wouldn't leave. Is this a confirmation of each other's intentions? This section is super loving.
3. The reversal of the police. There was a bad police station who detained Shirley and Tony for discriminating against black people. On the way back to New York on Christmas Eve, they ran into the police again. They thought they were in trouble again. In fact, they just wanted to remind them that their tires were flat. That merry Christmas greeting seemed especially warm on a cold snowy night.
4. The contrast between inside and outside the bar. In the bar at the last stop, Shirley surprised everyone with a song, and played pop music in a tacit cooperation with the black people. The black people at the bottom seemed to have accepted this elegant "brother" in a tuxedo. However, when Tony fired his gun when he left the house, it was shocking. It turned out that Lu Fu was spotted inadvertently, and two black men were prying a car and stealing. A friend or an enemy, a good person or a bad person, cannot be judged by skin color.
5. The fan of the gun. Tony once pretended to have a gun to help Shirley out of danger. Shirley said, "I knew you didn't have a gun." At the last stop outside the bar, Tony fired a gun and Shirley said, "I knew you had a gun."
6. VIPs who are late. Tony finally arrived home on Christmas Eve, but he was absent-minded in the busy house. He was worried that Shirley was too lonely. After that, the camera switched to Shirley. He made the housekeeper go home for the holidays and he was very lonely...Then the audience friends eagerly looked forward to being together, to be reunited, to reunion! When Tony's knocking on the door remembered, everyone rubbed their hands with tears in their eyes and looked forward to seeing Shirley. However, it was the pawnshop couple who saw them. Everyone was lost with Tony. Unexpectedly, there was a shy Shirley standing behind. The screenwriter is really a boring goblin, and there are so many twists and turns in the reunion.
7. Ghostwriting of love. After Shirley helped Tony "finish" the family letter, Tony's wife often saw tears in her eyes, and she was so proud to show off to her relatives and friends, and she was overwhelmed with happiness. However, when she finally met Shirley, she quietly said in his ear to thank him for the ghostwriter. It turns out that she has always known, but although those romantic and beautiful sentences are not Tony's original, the affection flowing in them is true. Moreover, Tony was fascinated by his eyes, and finally mastered the skills of writing a romantic book.
For this excellent film, in addition to the heavy topic of anti-racism, these carefully set small details are also worthy of fun, many of which are about prejudice. The seemingly unhygienic fried chicken is particularly delicious. The policeman who always troubles people also has an angelic side. The "brothers" who have just been hiccup secretly covet your property, and the seemingly unruly partners have a sense of responsibility and responsibility. The old man who can only write a running account can also be edified. So don't judge people by appearance, don't judge people by occupation, don't judge people by geographical area, don't just stick to people with irremovable labels, feel with your heart, and use time to prove, only then can you truly perceive his temperature and judge his personality.
3.18 update: about the description of fried chicken stems
Regarding the fried chicken stems on the first point, many bean friends have reported that the fried chicken in luxury restaurants is not a contrast, but outright racial discrimination. As an ordinary movie fan, when I watched this movie, I did not know that asking black people to eat fried chicken was a sign of discrimination in American culture, but it was a more subjective expression of my own movie-watching feelings. First of all, I would like to thank all the enthusiastic bean friends for their correction, and I also apologize for my lack of background knowledge.
In the past, black slaves in the southern United States were forbidden to own pigs or cows, but they could raise chickens, and the chicken was very delicious. Over time, fried chicken became the exclusive food of blacks. Many people used fried chicken to humiliate them, and it gradually became a kind of racial discrimination. symbol. However, in the scene in the film, I don’t think we can simply and rudely label racial discrimination. The manor’s receptionist said, “Earlier this week, we asked for help. Shirley would like to have something for dinner, so we prepared a special meal to entertain the VIPs”, indicating that they have taken care of Shirley’s taste, and they may have asked about it. Yes, at least there is no malice. Shirley's slightly surprised and embarrassed expression proved that he did not respond. Finally, there are two explanations for the results of the fried chicken. One is that they think Shirley likes to eat fried chicken as a black person, and the other is arranged by Tony, because Shirley had eaten fried chicken in the car before and had no plates and knives. Fork, and Tony spit out a terrible sandwich in the manor, Tony shrugged mysteriously at the banquet and seemed to say, "Hey, I arranged it." Different people have different opinions on which one it is, and I prefer the latter.
Finally, I want to say that it's normal for everyone to have different views on the details of the film, and it is also fun to discuss each other, there is no need to be tense. I think this is also a kind of prejudice because of a single flaw. Friends who have this tendency, don't really understand this movie.
5.27 update:
Thank you very much for your love and support to my film reviews. Because of everyone's encouragement, I originally wanted to restart the public account "Xianyu Xiaoju" that I had put on hold for a long time today. But when I carefully edited the page and prepared it for mass posting, I found that my article had been snatched from the official account "Seacat Creation" for the first publication, and the official account did not contact me before and did not indicate that it was reprinted. But because of others' plagiarism, I cannot push my own original articles, which makes me very angry! If you are interested in bean friends, you can follow my official account, and my future film reviews will be published on this account as soon as possible, so as to protect my originality and defend my rights.
