In recent years, Disney has been keen on "classic reshaping . "
Whether it’s the live-action remakes of "Cinderella" and "Beauty and the Beast" in the past few years, or the upcoming "Lion King" and "Aladdin" that will be released this year, Disney, smelling of business opportunities, will remake or release a series of classics. , Bring them back to the big screen.
At the end of last year, Disney successfully reinvented a continuation, bringing us Mary Poppins who came with the wind- " Mary Poppins Returns"
In "Mary Poppins" (Mary Poppins) released in 1964, Mary Poppins came with the wind under an umbrella and flew into the homes of ordinary people to take care of the children of the Banks family.
The Banks family is a mess,
Father Mr. Banks was busy with work all day and paid little attention to his children;
My mother is a social reformist who distributes posters and takes to the streets all day long ;
Sisters and siblings Jane and Michael are unattended , and they are called kings at home, and the nanny is also angry.
Mary took the initiative to ask, and the Banks and his wife agreed without much thought.
She has a magic handbag comparable to Doraemon , and everything can be transformed.
She took the children from the Banks family to play in the chalk paintings, among the rooftops of London, and learn and grow in entertainment.
Mary brought earth-shaking changes to the Banks family ,
The siblings gradually became well-behaved and sensible , and Mr. Banks also changed from a bank clerk who only knew how to make money to a kind father who cherished family life .
When the mission was completed, Mary Poppins opened the umbrella and left with the wind.
The story of "New Happy Manchuria" is set 25 years after the first time point
The Banks family has passed away long ago, and the siblings have grown up.
Sister, Jane. Become a social reformer like a mother .
Brother, Michael. He is a widower with three children, and a bank clerk like his father.
At the beginning of the movie, Michael’s life fell into a crisis: because the bank loan was overdue, their house was confiscated by the bank on Friday, and they had to find the proof of their father’s shares in the bank before they had a chance to redeem the house.
Time is tight and tasks are heavy, and life is in a mess.
At this time, Mary Poppins, who is as always young and beautiful , came again uninvited and assumed the responsibility of being a nanny.
Under the looming crisis, she took the three children of the Banks family, wandering between the magic and the real world, guiding them to develop their wisdom through everything to deal with the difficulties in real life.
The image of Mary Poppins originated from the novel " Mary Poppins " (Mary Poppins) written by PL Traverse .
(In the heart of the newspaper sister, she, "Pippi Longstocking" and "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" are childhood favorites!)
"Aunt Mary with the Wind" was adapted by Disney into the movie of the same name in 1964 (Chinese translation: Happy to the World), and it was put on the big screen.
From then on, this magical nanny who came with the wind has become a well-known classic character.
Once "Happy in the World" was launched, it achieved great success at the box office. Walt Disney, the founder of the Disney Company, also used the money earned from the movie to build the first Disneyland.
After 54 years, Disney finally released the sequel to this movie "Happy Man 2".
The reason why it is so long is because the original author from the United Kingdom, Traverse, particularly disliked the 1964 version of Disney's adaptation : the important plot has been changed, Mary Poppins is too amiable, and even let the Americans play it. One of the roles!
In a rage, the eldest sister refused to sell the adaptation rights to Disney again, and this wait was 54 years.
Hope for the stars and moon, and finally look forward to the return of Mary Poppins' screen. Disney has also made a lot of efforts for this return ▼
Invite the famous musical "Chicago" director Rob Marshall to do it himself,
Please come to a lot of big coffee like Xiaoben, Aunt Mei and Uncle Lian.
I also invited the actor from the previous film, the 94-year-old Dick Van Dyck, to come here as a guest star . The old man is still coquettish and still shows off his dance skills in the film.
It is worth mentioning that the new generation of Mary Poppins actor- Emily Blunt has also brought new characteristics to this magic nanny. Many small expressions add character and interest to the characters, and they are also nicknamed by fans. for the "rolling his eyes in the history of a favorite fairy」 .
After all, it was the bitch of "The Devil Wearing Prada".
After many years, the generations of children who watched "Happy in the World" have all grown up , and have entered the society to get busy.
So this time, Disney came for the "homage to childhood memories" .
The brothers and sisters of Banks in the first part have grown up and started a family, but because of a series of changes in their lives, they are overwhelmed by life.
When Mary returned again, she said that her siblings were the "children" of Banks that needed to be taken care of.
The most sad thing is that the sister and brother have forgotten Mary's magic long ago , thinking that she is just a well-maintained childhood nanny.
Even when the children told their parents and aunts about the wonderful adventures Mary had experienced with them, they only thought it was the children's whimsical ideas, and they never remembered that they had experienced the same magical journey in childhood.
"New Happy Manchuria" is still a wonderful adventure for Mary and the children, but what it wants to express is that it is more an appeal to the childlike innocence of adults .
When we were children, we looked forward to growing up soon. But when I really grow up, I miss my childhood very much. The newspaper sister felt that what everyone missed was actually the carefree and pure innocence as a child.
Just like when we enter a fairy tale world like Disneyland, the children around will often just laugh and play with excitement, while adults usually have tears in their eyes at some point because of our nostalgia for childhood .
Childlike innocence is born, but with the passage of time and the temper of the world, the childlike innocence of many people gradually fades, and people become sophisticated, vulgar, and rigid.
But once we come into contact with children, we will feel the innocent mentality and wild imagination, and our inborn childlike innocence is also unknowingly aroused.
In Baojie's view, whether a child or an adult is just an exorcism, it is only a distinction in age . Whether you are innocent in your heart, or whether you are willing to always believe in the power of innocence, is your choice.
It's like a classic line in "The Little Prince": All adults used to be children, but many times we forget them.
I hope you always have a childlike innocence and always be a "child".
