I want to write an irrelevant movie review
but lazy
Many people may not know that LA LA in LA LA Land is not a lesbian LA nor? LALA, but the abbreviation of Los Angeles, Los Angeles. If you know that LA refers to Los Angeles, then most of the beauty and romance in the movie will be lost, because Los Angeles is not the destination of dreams and love. Los Angeles is more like a human body with blocked blood vessels. Each organ (region) has a completely different function (temperament). The difficulty of moving from one region to another is very different, not to mention physical flow and regional culture.
To name a few?: Downtown Los Angeles is a place where the financial district is mixed with homeless people, except for professionals in suits and homeless people on the street, people's faces are blurred, not sassy, not cynical, not arrogant, There is also rare ignorance, only busy footsteps and one-way streets. Less than ten kilometers to the east is the liberated area that the Chinese often say, the Alhambra, the soft like honey, and the San Gabriel Valley. Except for the expressway, these places will appear in Hollywood movies, and the rest are not the same as Los Angeles in film and television dramas. A little bit of a relationship, a large bungalow cheap Chinese food does not need to speak English is a local feature. If you go back to the west, the west of downtown Los Angeles is where Mexicans gather. Say hello and say hola. The average height is 1.6 meters. The roadside stalls sell food, drink, and toys. No difference, these characteristics will not appear in Hollywood movies. Walking a kilometer or two westward along the central axis is Koreatown. The streets are full of barbecue, kimchi and tofu pots. It’s natural for Korean aunts to pick up your vegetable basket. The girls, Oppa, are thin and trendy, but they all have a face. However, if you look closely, you can see whether it is imported Koreans or American Koreans. Every night is a big fish, and Mexican friends occupy the parking lot and kitchen dishwasher. These characteristics are gradually becoming more and more with the increase of Hollywood Asian factors. fragment. The southern part of Koreatown is the gathering area of the indigenous black people in Los Angeles, which is very large, Straight outta Compton, Fuck the police was created for the residents of this area. The 1992 riots in Los Angeles were also happening at the intersection of the black area and the Korean area. This area has many iconic features in film and television dramas. Maybe I haven't watched enough black film and television dramas, so I am impressed. single. Continuing westward along the central axis from Koreatown, you come to La Brea, where white elements have finally been added to the diversity of cultural and commercial atmospheres, thinking that Hollywood is to the north and Beverly to the west. I think, no matter the Hollywood in most of the films is crazy dream love, the Hollywood I observed is crazy dream and dream broken, Hollywood is probably the most intuitive place to show that the dream has failed, the street performers, maybe before they come to Hollywood They are handsome men and beautiful women with dreams. After they came, some people took drugs, some people changed sex, and some people just left quietly. I don't know the rising channels of the film and television industry today, but it is true that more and more film and television stars appear on the screen in the second and third generations. Needless to say, Beverly is probably a living specimen of wealth and scenery. Everyone, even tourists, can feel the glamour in Beverly, just like everyone loves Grandpa Mao and Franklin. This city also has UCLA and Santa Monica, which is another layer of culture and atmosphere. For example, thanks to the blessing of vegan/gluten free, Lululemon Slim is full of streets. It is not so easy to eat meat.
All of the above, plus Little Tokyo, Thailand Town, China Town, Little Belgium, and Armenia, which are not mentioned, have become the face of the city of Los Angeles. The reality and fantasy, diversity and inclusiveness, and dreams are completely unrelated to the film. In the taco truck on the street corner, blocked on the 405, released in the rap, it is the warm and mellow wonton noodles... It is the real appearance of you, me, him and her, this city will not add a little romance to the dream, There is no magic blessing, so maybe LA LA LAND touched the whole world, however, it didn't touch me living in this city.
