Mapping from the outside to the inside

About the film Frozen, I think there is actually too much love for it that is difficult to express in words. Whether it is the search for love or the expression of love, it can always be found in the film. Find the place that resonates with your heart in every scene.
There are many distinct characters in the whole movie. Their relationship in the story is interconnected and complementary, but they can be separated from being a lively and flexible individual and become a kind of inner monologue. Behind them, we can see different attitudes towards love and the world.

For Elsa, her love is a kind of protection and sacrifice. In order not to hurt her relatives, she chooses self-exile and faces this sacrifice with a free mentality, which is undoubtedly profound and great. A kind of love, her growth is accompanied by fear and pain. History has proven countless times that children who grow up in such an environment are easily guided by extreme world views, and even fall into a cruel thinking and cannot extricate themselves. Therefore, watch With Elsa's step-by-step choices, she is full of incomparable kindness to overcome these, which is also the most touching part of her role.


For Anna, her love is a kind of persistence and pursuit. It's not that she doesn't know love like Xuebao said, but that she is constantly being rejected, and she is confused about how to understand love. No one is growing up. He told her about the complexity and sacrifice of love, but her perseverance, her persistent pursuit of love, constantly led her to experience the complexity of love, and even understood the truth of deception in the name of love, which is undoubtedly a more The strong catalysis made Anna understand the true meaning of love before her sister in the plot, and made a choice of her own heart; it can be seen that for love, going forward is the best driving force.

For Kristoff, he is undoubtedly a kind person. He grew up in an environment isolated from the crowd, and he is wary of people, but he is accompanied by a group of lovely and enthusiastic goblins, which undoubtedly makes him Fortunately, there, he felt the warmth of home among the aliens, which undoubtedly made his heart melt a lot from the inside out, but it was also because of this that his misunderstanding and confusion about people deepened. , compared to normal people, he is more simple, but his vigilance covers up the weak points in his nature; just like what happened in Aokun Shangzhai, for normal people, everything is normal, how much money can buy how many things That's for sure, but his first reaction when he was rejected by the Norwegian boss was that he was a profiteer.

For Hans, as a character who must be blackened in the plot, it is also the place where the originality of the film is reversed. I have to say that this is a wonderful and regrettable decision; after so many years, Disney finally released a black prince with such a good concealment. When I saw his description of his "Twelve Brothers", I couldn't help but think of the princes in so many previous movies, what would their choices be in such an environment, where we can't see in animation, except In addition to love, will the things on their shoulders force them to make choices that cannot be shown? So everything may not be so perfect, it's just that Disney shows us the elegance, politeness and excellent quality of Prince Charming in a fairy tale. In the real modern European world, all the crown princes who inherit their families are all black-bellied and elegant politicians. Even if they have true love, they are often lost because of established rules. Interest and betrayal have created the survival and continuation of each country. space.
The images of the characters are very full as a whole. With the continuous advancement of the twin sisters line, the conflict continues to break out, and then leads to the next plot. The rhythm is also very compact, at least people will not be overwhelmed by the lengthy interludes. Feeling burnt out. I watched it about 10 times in the theater. The more I get to the end, the more I understand the appeal of the plot. In a relatively closed theater environment, when you watch the same work repeatedly, the appeal of the plot to you is easily weakened. , so in my opinion, at least the first 50 minutes of the film maintains a strong vitality. When I accidentally fell asleep twice, it was in the second half. Although it was relatively a climax, the way of expression and performance The power is still weaker than the first half.
The music of this film is very good, and the selection of songs and the combination of the plot are also very good. From the total of frozen heart to the complete release of let it go, the first half of the film is continuously improved in 35 minutes. With an incomparable release, I believe that countless people who watched the movie for the first time did not slow down the tense muscles of the mixed body until Her Lady Queen cut the singing scene to when Anna was trudging in the snow. In the song let it go, everyone can find a release point for life and stress. For the duet of Anna and Elsa, it can be said to be another highlight. The singing voices of two different feelings collide with each other in the constantly rising and circling melody, which produces an unparalleled beauty in the strong contrast. It brings a straightforward and delicate touch to the heart.
In order to make the snowflakes in the whole film more realistic and convincing, the trailer introduces how the newly developed design engine can realistically and delicately simulate the scene where the snowballs collide and break apart. For this, I can only say that Disney's animation truly combines art and technology perfectly, and technology has become a tool of expression, which is fortunate for any designer. Maybe Pixar is better at this, but Frozen is an admirable and heartfelt film for its detail and graphics.
