There are very few movies these days that I can watch a second time soon after watching it once, and thinking that if it ever comes out, I'm going to ask someone to watch it a third time with me. This green book, I read it twice at the beginning.
PS: Pride and Prejudice is the best topic I can think of right now. Explain at the end.
Tony is a very simple person who loves life, loves family, and works hard for the family. He is not a good provider, but a good husband and father who works hard. Of course, he also has his own shortcomings, impulsiveness, not accepting grievances, and prejudice at the beginning - the phenomenon and psychology unique to that era. So, the first two cups show that Tony took the job with prejudice and unwillingness, and as I said, he is a provider. Also, he is a reliable partner.
Dr. Shelley, on the other hand, was holding his frame from the very beginning. When I first walked into the Doctor's house with Tony, everyone was probably like me. It wasn't like an artist's or a Doctor's residence. It was vulgar, crowded, and not too fancy. Later we learned that this is the manifestation of the doctor's mental confusion, just as he shouted to Tony in the heavy rain: "If I'm not white enough, if I'm not black enough, if I'm not man enough, then tell me, Tony, who I am ?" So someone who was at a loss in real life found Tony, made him his driver, and set out on his own journey through the Midwest—with his own upbringing, dignity, courage, and a unique ability to tolerate and change The determination of the whole world.
When did Tony change his prejudice? After hearing Dr. Shelley play the piano for the first time, Tony wrote to his beloved wife that night, praising Dr. as a genius, a man of many ideas and thoughts. Yes, Tony didn't miss it. And we, like Tony, were conquered by the Doctor. Dr. Shelley is indeed a genius, an artist, and a black artist who deserves respect and applause. So the next Tony really started to serve the doctor, from the Steinway piano to the swimming pool, from the fried chicken to the toilet, and finally with the doctor to find happiness and self under the surrounded and stared by black people, Tony heard from that window After Dr.'s music, he truly recognized that Dr. was "virtuoso", began to think for him sincerely, gradually entered his heart, and began to become friends with him.
After reading it, you will find that Tony is a very lovely person who talks a lot, loves his family very much, loves his wife very much, is very simple, and does his job very conscientiously. And I am constantly changing myself in my life-in fact, I think Tony's misunderstanding of black people may just be a long-term habit, not a real contempt in his heart. Therefore, I am very opposed to the description of Tony as a little gangster in the Chinese version of the introduction. I prefer to call Tony a life home - a person who has life experience and loves life with all his heart. And Tony's actor Viggo Mortensen must be an artist with a lot of life and taste. If you don't believe me, go to Baidu. People who don't have life's taste can't make such a good life comedy effect. Chicken, I can't take it anymore, okay? Look back at his performance, I'm really impressed!).
Shirley, on the other hand, was noble, well-bred, educated, and qualified. He was an aristocratic figure in both thought and behavior. But in a special period, he is a person who has no sense of belonging and security, and a person who does not have much real life experience. So, at first, his arrogance and contempt for Tony was simply impossible to hide. Since when did you start to take off your defenses and gradually approach Tony's? Start with fried chicken, start with asking you to stay, or start with me driving you home? I've been assuming, but have never been able to be sure. Everything is too difficult for Dr. Life is too difficult, it is even more difficult to take off your pretense and admit yourself. So, I'm worried that they won't be able to go back to New York, and I'm worried that there will be no happy ending in the end - although I know there will be, but when the doctor showed up at Tony's house with SF whisky, I was still moved to cry - come to the doctor Said it was too difficult and too precious.
In this way, people who seem to be irrelevant come to a planned trip. In the last Birmingham performance, I was stunned when Tony persuaded the Doctor to hold back and not care about it. Later, I was shocked when the Doctor tried his best to stand up for himself. When I watched it for the second time, I understood that it was two people influencing each other. So later friendship is a matter of course. In the final impromptu performance, the doctor removed his disguise and gradually found himself, and Tony also got his own joy in it.
Two places made me laugh. "KFC fried chicken, in Kenya! Best fried chicken I've ever had!" "Dr, Pittsburgh really disappointed me! (You know!)"
In the end, the conversation between the doctor and Dolores was very meaningful: "Thank you for sharing husband with me!" "Thank you for helping him with the letters!" It turns out that we all understand.
This is not a love story, but it can bring us a lot of warmth. May there be more of this kind of warmth and more of this kind of movies in this world.
I understand the fusion of the two as a reconciliation of pride and prejudice. But Darcy's arrogance and Elizabeth's prejudice are obvious, while Tony and the Doctor have both pride and prejudice, and then the pride and prejudice are gone. We may not really know what the reality is like, but this warm story gave us the warm breeze of early summer in winter.
