One, go through! Long live this world! The theme of "Midnight Paris" is "anti-traveling". Are the old days really good? Many people take "live in the present" as their motto, and most scholars are more happy to live in the old days-cucumbers, skins, tofu, flowers and models are tender and good, famous brands, jadeware, lovers, doctors and time are old good. Innocent, I love ancient clothes, clothes, fun, and food. I feel that they have endless meaning. They are much more beautiful than today’s jeans, T-shirts, "Chow Tai Fook", and madness. Those who are more painful want heroes and heroes. The fierce troubled times... So long so long ago, Kong Qiu had already begun to sigh, "The world is going downhill, and people's hearts are not old." He wanted to travel back to the Zhou Dynasty and was dreaming about it. Every scholar has a fragrant old age in his heart, they are looking for beauty in the time and space without substance. The vague and vague scenery that is covered by heavy curtains and out of the mouth of the predecessors is always good. The sweet spring of life seems to be less intoxicating today than in the past. The irreparable and re-engraved melancholy has become another kind of beauty. "Nowadays, it is always sad, and the dead become lovely." Why was it cute in old times? Because it is like the snow leopards and African lion specimens displayed in the museum. It has been skinned and cramped, and its flesh and blood is sold out, leaving only its colorful skin and vigorous appearance, and it can no longer hurt people. Every age has it-the hungry corpse, the bloody political struggle, the pessimistic gray fog of the people, time is responsible for washing them away. The beauty solidified on the photographic paper, you can't smell her breath, the body odor under the armpits, only the shadows are faintly left. In Chinese martial arts novels, "ancient" weapons and boxing techniques are always the sharpest and most ingenious. After defeating the white-clothed man in "Wan Hua Xi Jian Lu", Zi Yi Hou said: "I have changed 97 sword techniques in a row, and the last one is old. Created by Dayu when he was controlling the waters, the martial arts lost hundreds of years of "destroying the devil sword", and luckily defeated him half a trick... "Even if a thing itself is worthless, it has survived for a long time. People are in awe. The ancient city contains the mighty emperor, invisible power, the atmosphere is peaceful and sexy, they form a huge vast galaxy, each planet has a strong gravitational force, tourists are like spaceships coming from afar, and they are confounded by the force of gravity. Easy to get lost. Colm Tobin described Venice in this way: "Neither tourism nor time has damaged the city's melancholy and splendid qualities...Even if the daylight dims and stays, it has a long history." In all ancient cities In China, Paris is an exceptionally glorious galaxy. The contemporary Paris presented in the beginning of "Midnight Paris" is enough to make people fascinated, but it is Hemingway, Fitzgerald, Elliott, and Dali who sit and smoke in the cafe on the left bank. The "golden age" of chat. Relying on a classic midnight car, Jill escaped into the bright old world he had imagined for a long time, and was able to join the night feast of Jean Cocteau and become the guest of Gertrude Stein’s seat, alongside Hemingway, Fitzgerald and Dali. The meeting was even favored by Picasso's mistress. His happiness lies in his knowledge of his luck. If he didn’t know that this aggressive moustache sitting in the tavern, this sissy youth with curly golden hair, this arrogant young woman, this burly peasant-like gay fat big woman, it’s Heim, Fitz, Shanda, Stein, does he still think they are cute? Charm and brilliance become glamour and brilliance over time, and the grieving puppet becomes a legend. It is impossible and unfair to call back the wheel of fate and ignore these times to watch. Therefore, this story can only happen in movies and through novels. Of course, the irony is that Gauguins living in the "greatest and most beautiful era" are talking about "people in this era are very poor and lack imagination. It would be nice if they could live in the Renaissance era." The "Renaissance" they miss is also an activity that revives the ideas of the classical era and innovative ways of thinking. Fortunately, Jill finally realized. He said to Adriana: "They don't have antibiotics in their time. Dentists don't have anesthetics." That's right! It is technology and progress that defeat the beauty of the old age. To be honest, I firmly do not want to travel back to any era. In an era without sanitary napkins, flush toilets, hot showers, condoms, air conditioners, and online shopping, even if Picasso and Hemingway love me and get a duel in the bullring (I really didn’t want to have sex with this...), I did. Never stay. Although I am not crazy about taking pictures and eating, nor am I qualified to travel in space in a spacecraft, from the perspective of technological progress, the world is definitely better today than yesterday, and tomorrow is better than today. New technology makes people reluctant to grow old, let alone die. Jill (that is, Woody old man) also said: thinking that living in the past will be happier is one of the hallucinations. This description of Patrick Xu Sijin can also be used as evidence. It may be an exaggeration, but I think that Ye Gonghaolong misses the old time and when he travels through obscenity, he may wish to add this kind of imagination: "In the eighteenth century, the city has always been filled with unimaginable smells. Gas. The street smelled of feces, the backyard of the house smelled of urine, the stairwell smelled of rotten wood and mice, the kitchen smelled of rotten vegetables and mutton; the unventilated rooms smelled of mildew. The smell of dust in the bedroom, the smell of greasy sheets, the smell of damp duvets, and the pungent, sweet smell of chamber pots. The smell of sulfur exudes from the fireplace, and the smell of tannery exudes The smell of caustic alkali is slaughtered There was a bloody stench in the field. People emit the smell of sweat and unwashed clothes, their mouths smell of rancid teeth, and their stomachs burp the smell of onion juice; if these people are not young, their The body smells of aged cheese, yogurt and tumors. The river, the square, and the church smelled like a smell, and the bridge and the palace smelled unpleasant. The king also stinks, he stinks like a beast, and the queen is sad like an old goat, both in summer and winter. Because in the eighteenth century, the destructive activities of bacteria have not yet been restricted. No matter what human activities are destructive or constructive, the emergence and decay of life are not linked with different odors. And Paris is the smelliest, because Paris is the largest city in France. "("Perfume") Many years later, will people later look forward to Beijing in the 21st century like this?-"Before N00, Beijing was a weird and chaotic place, that kind of desperate and shameless creation The floor is a unique and interesting style. For example, the signs they mark everywhere are a building that looks like underwear and a person who is squatting to pee, and an ashtray-like gymnasium; they eat rice bowls and grilled fish in restaurants. Hot pots are all cooked with a kind of "waste oil", so they have a peculiar fragrance that can no longer be replicated today. At that time, the people living in Beijing had not yet reached the level of a private helicopter per household, and "taxi" were running everywhere in the city. It can also be called "de" (pronounced "di"), and the taxi driver is called "brother". They are keen to talk with passengers about major events in the world, and they speak many words... 2. Books and movies: Of course, many people have read this book. However, I recorded a few paragraphs against the movie. In "A Feast of Flowing", Scott Fitzgerald said: "Looks like a child, with a face between handsome and beautiful. He has golden wavy curly hair and is tall. His forehead, a pair of excited and friendly eyes, a long lips, a slim mouth with Irish style, if it grows on a girl’s face, it will be a beautiful mouth. His chin is well shaped and his ears are long. It looks very beautiful. A beautiful nose can almost be said to be beautiful without scars. All this will not add up to a beautiful face, but that beauty comes from the tone, from the very pleasing blonde hair and the mouth. . That mouth always annoys you before you know him, and it will annoy you even more when you get to know him.” (I really like this description of appearance!) The film plays Fitz by 30-year-old Englishman Tom Hey. Dresden, looks handsome, his face is exactly like a scholar, and the characteristics of his mouth are especially similar to what Heim described: his first shot appeared, my first glance Just seeing his mouth, the two thin lips pressed together in a very intelligent appearance, as if ready to laugh innocently and happily at any time. Tom’s last big role was "Loki" in "Thor", and the next big role was the male number two of the big movie "War Horse" (Fog). Scott was childish—and girlish—indecisive and worried. He is with Heim, a bit like Christopher and Olivier. Among the two, the tough guy Heim had to take care of the other. When the two went on a trip, Scott Fei said that he had a fever and his lungs were congested and he was about to die. He even staged a solitary play, handing over Hedgehog-like Sanda and his daughter to Haim; he lay on the bed like a wayward child Torture, cynicism, repeated complaints and complaints, "I want to take my temperature", "You are a cold person", "I'm dying, but it doesn't count as much to you." Heim took his pulse, listened to his heartbeat, and stroked his forehead, but he couldn't calm him down. He could do nothing about him, but he still felt that "I didn't take good care of him." Finally, he finally got a thermometer. As soon as he found out that he was okay, Scott immediately got up from the bed to call his wife. Regarding this matter, Heim’s conclusion is: "I understand one thing: never travel with someone you don’t love." I believe that Fitz regards Heim as his best brother, because--" "The size problem", such an unspeakable thing, it is hard to believe that you will confide in people who do not absolutely trust. Fitz was scolded and ridiculed by Sanda because of this. Heim led him to the bathroom and even explained to him thoughtfully: "When you look down at yourself from above, it appears to be shortened." He also took him to the Louvre to see the size of the statue, and then said, "This is a feature. How big a problem it becomes is also a question of angle", and finally suggested to him: "Push a pillow and some other things"... Heim is really a good buddy! He said: "For many years, I have no more loyal friends than Scott when I was awake." In the film Hemingway talked to Jill about death, and he and Fitz also talked about this: "Scott then asked me if I was afraid When I die, I say that sometimes I am more afraid, and other times I am less afraid." Hemingway described Shanda like this: "Very beautiful, her hair is a beautiful deep blonde, and her eagle-like eyes are clear. And calm", "thin lips, with the color of the southern hinterland in manners and accents." She is a torrent caught between two peaks. Shanda and Lu Xiaoman are a bit similar-life experience, talent, beauty, temperament and influence on her husband. The Zelda in the film is not as beautiful as the real one, and looks more frivolous. The image of Miss Stein is as follows: "Large head but not tall, burly like a peasant woman. She has a pair of beautiful eyes and a staunch German Jewish, possibly Friulian face, and her The clothes, her changeable face, and her beautiful, thick, and energetic immigrant hair — the style of hair is probably the same as when I was in college — all reminded me of a peasant woman in northern Italy." She treats these young guests "like we are very obedient, polite and promising children." Later, Miss Stein also taught him about sex. Of course Hemingway was a little embarrassed. "When we talk about other things, I am very happy." Asking Casey Bates to play Miss Stein was unimaginable at the beginning. When I saw it, I felt "Ah, yes, that's it." ". In fact, I wondered if Judy Dench is more suitable to play Stein. After all, Dench’s temperament is more like a writer, but she doesn’t have the "peasant woman" temperament that Heim called. Bates is also more like an intimate aunt who teaches Heim about sex. (The effect of mixing Bates and the writer together is very funny, because her twinkling eyes suddenly make people think that she will confine another novelist [see "Ten Days in Crisis"]). Heim said: ——Paris is a very old city, but we are very young. There is nothing simple here, even poverty, unexpected money, moonlight, right and wrong, and the person sleeping next to you under the moonlight. It’s not easy to breathe. ——Paris is never over. Everyone who has lived in Paris has different memories from everyone else. We will always go back there, no matter who we are, how she changes, and no matter how much you get there. Difficult or how easy, Paris is always worth your visit, no matter what you bring her, you will always be rewarded. Miss Stein, it was unimaginable at first, and when she saw it, she felt "Ah, that's it." In fact, I wondered if Judy Dench is more suitable to play Stein.
