Cinderella

The old aristocrat with well-developed limbs VS the old aristocrat with quadriplegia. The old aristocrat appreciates the pure nature of the old aristocrat, while the old aristocrat has no reverence for the old aristocrat. The collision of cultures will arouse lovely and warm sparks.

In fact, it is also an old-fashioned Cinderella story.

Cinderella conquered the prince with things that were rare or lacking in the upper class, and the prince used a colorful world piled up with money to win the eyes of Cinderella and thousands of audiences, so he was ignorant and fearless. The old Cinderella and the noble prince who dislikes the rich and loves the poor get on well and start their happy life.

Stop, even in Korean dramas and Qiong Yao dramas, it is impossible for Cinderella and the prince to start a happy life so quickly and smoothly. At least they have to overcome the secular world or the conflicts caused by different class backgrounds, but this Cinderella story in this film is No. The aristocratic family's perfect tolerance for the old man, as well as the outside world's appreciation or fear of the old man, are too business, too smooth, too taken for granted, and the plot in the play that only the almighty money can appear, so this film can only achieve warmth. The two male protagonists of this

film can be regarded as Cinderellas, one is poor in material and the other is poor in spirit, so they save each other. But this kind of rescue cannot be given by ordinary caregivers, because ordinary caregivers are too professional and treat employers as patients. This is what the director wants to emphasize. In fact, many disabled people do not want to receive preferential treatment from disabled people. They enjoy equal spiritual respect and non-discrimination, which may be another sign of self-esteem.

    Seeing that the prototype at the end of the film is Tunisian rather than black, I instantly understand where all the subtle dissonances in the film come from. The choreographer is really looking for a black man who is too strong to form a contrast. The structure of the text is fairly fine, the A story unfolds very well, and the B story (higher cultural upbringing on the side of the black brother) is unexpected and reasonable. The film has many flaws.

    The black brother can always easily make Philip laugh. Two people who seem to be completely different, but the fit of their hearts is so high-cheers for this cross-class friendship!
