1. The fools who dream
just say this paragraph, the song is good and the lyrics are good, it penetrates into your heart and makes you rekindle the dream buried deep in your heart. But sing it from the mouth of Miss Mia, who is "bitch", feels very insincere. Those who refute, please first sort out the difference between thinking and dreaming. Ideals are rational, and there is a high chance of implementing and achievable ideas through hard work; dreams are limited to one's own heart, and most of them will be foolish and naive, knowing that they can't do it but insisting on doing it.
"Here's to the ones who dream, foolish, as they may seem/And here's to the fools who dream, crazy, as they may seem." From the overall feeling of the movie, Miss Mia's dream should be to engage in anything related to the movie (the predecessor of the same type is Yin Tianqiu from "The King of Comedy"), even if the audition fails, it will not obliterate her. The love for acting, even writing the script and paying the theater to be an actor. But it was only because few people came to watch when she directed and acted and heard bad reviews backstage, so she wanted to give up hysterically, or Mr. Seb insisted and encouraged her that she went to that crucial time. audition. So who is holding on? Girl, if insisting on your dream is to sing and sing, and if you are frustrated and give up directly, I think you should pull it down, don't elevate yourself so high. In contrast, Mr. Seb is much purer. He is the fool who doesn't give up for three buckets of rice for his dreams (he doesn't even have the money to change the door lock!), even at the risk of being fired, he can't help but play his own. Music, forget about myself, there is only music left in the world (Mia first fell in love with the bar).
I first thought that Miss Mia exuded a bit of "bitch" when Mr. Seb prepared a surprise dinner for her and the two broke down. The fuse was that Miss Mia used her dreams to challenge the male protagonist's compromise to reality. Here's a quote from a friend - "During the surprise dinner, Mia felt that he had put down his dreams to make money, deviate from his original intention, and had almost no time to spend with her. Seb got angry first because he heard her on the phone with the family explaining that he wanted to Jazz bar, but there is no stable job for the time being. He thinks that she let him make money first, but in fact, this is only what she said to her family, not to him." I think you forgot about this child's shoes. The night before the call, they had just bumped into his classmate at the bar where Seb was guest. From the occasional bedtime conversation, Seb clearly showed his dislike for this classmate, and Miss Mia emphasized twice "but he gave you a job opportunity", plus the phone call the next day (of course I Not that Miss Mia was intentional), which led to Mr. Seb joining the band. Combined with the conversation that broke down later, it can be seen that Mr. Seb has understood that only by earning money can he insist on his "stupid" dream (opening a Jazz bar that will not be influenced by others' preferences and only be his own), even if it is touring. The work is not my original intention, but I still work hard to do it. So I would like to ask Miss Mia, is your understanding of "holding on to your dreams" so shallow?
Achieving ideals is a means and a bridge leading to dreams. The success of Universal Vision is not necessarily about persevering in dreams, but depends on what will be done next after success. At the end of the film, Miss Mia became a successful actress and lived a good life, and she gained admiration from others wherever she went, but her further achievements were not portrayed (for example, she complained about the script and roles during the audition. , and he also has the talent to write scripts, and finally became a director balabala with good performances). So I think at the point of dream, the premise and result of the film are broken (especially this song that made many people cry is sung by Miss Mia!).
2. City of stars
is about to write about its weakness. In fact, I want to use Mr. Seb's piano piece, but I don't know its name.
In this film, dreams and love are hard to separate, they are intertwined. Happy ending should be when Mia and Seb finished saying "I will love you forever" to each other. Five years later, they completed their dreams, met by chance, and lived happily together. It's not necessarily a Happy ending, but the foreshadowing of the early stage and the epitome of more than seven points at the end at a glance makes me feel like another break.
Let's start with the scene of the surprise dinner that broke down. Whether it’s because the male protagonist didn’t go to the female protagonist’s premiere because of work, he kept apologizing and comforting the female protagonist in the face of hysteria; or when he received the audition call, he immediately drove to the female protagonist and kept motivating her. He has also been with Miss Mia to cheer her up (Interlude: The scene is very similar to the couple waiting anxiously for the result outside the infertility department), and they all interpret "accompaniment is the longest confession of love" (Hello Mr. Chen), saying that being hypocritical is my dream, that is, to support you in realizing your dream. Shouldn't two people love each other to support each other and go on? For this reason, I also specifically asked a friend who has been studying in the United States for a long time for verification. I want to know whether only Chinese people have the mentality of "sharing weal and woe" in the love stage? And foreigners (developed countries) are you appreciating me and I appreciate you, the mentality of "getting what you need" when you hit it off and then break up after a word of disagreement? He said that this is really divided and has nothing to do with nationality. In contrast, Miss Mia is too contrived. How can such a childish and glass-hearted character set up so high at the end that "this situation can be reminisced"?
So really don't talk about leaving this nonsense because you cherish each other's talent...
There is no happy ending, we all know that is too fake.
The love that everyone is happy may not fall into the stereotype, and holding the hand of the child and growing old together do not necessarily have to be labeled as "family". I love you, even though we were separated, I suddenly found that I had become your appearance at a certain moment - "Chunjiao and Zhiming"; it is unforgettable that without you, it was Rose who looked at Jack on the slowly falling lifeboat Take a leap, even if you are no longer there, I still carry my promise to you, and I will live the rest of my life as you want to see - "Titanic"
Finally, let's pay tribute. Love is able to meet you in the moment of life, and it takes all the luck.
Also: the four stars are from the perspective of a music major, the soundtrack is really great~~
