"The Devil Wears Prada", the English name is "The Devil Wears Prada", which means that there is a devil wearing Prada, but the Chinese translation can be understood as "wearing Prada, you become a devil".
As a traditional Hollywood commercial film, "The Devil Wears Prada" has a very regular film structure. 30 minutes, 60 minutes, and 90 minutes are the three dividing points of the whole film. If you are willing to read it again, the four parts are clearly divided. Throughout the vast majority of movies, the time of these three points is relatively fixed. For an excellent movie, the four parts of the whole article are handled very well; and some movies with a slanted sword have survived the dullness. The first three parts, will make the audience shine in the last 20 minutes, and complete the whole story wonderfully; but unfortunately, many more films after the gripping first 90 minutes, but use the rest of the time to ruin the whole film .
The Devil Wears Prada is such a film. If its first 97 minutes were a wonderfully dark fairy tale with brutal beauty, the presence of the last 10 minutes puts the film in the category of doomed family entertainment, and August Rush (2007) ) have a spell.
Without further ado, let's start analyzing "Wear" in the black fairy tale part.
As far as my vision is concerned, I actually prefer the shape of the plump and bloated blue pullover of the heroine Andy at the beginning of the film, because at a glance you will feel very familiar, maybe it is the girl who lives upstairs. Maybe it's the girls queuing up at the convenience store to discuss the weather and comics, you won't have much sense of distance. You will understand that this kind of shape is pure life, there is no calm, just a quiet and peaceful place. This kind of down-to-earth feeling is enough to support us when we hear the female devil Maranda yin and yang showing off how much impact a blue color will bring to the entire fashion industry and how much wealth it will create, we are disdainful to this kind of "pretend" ' expresses disdain. (PS: 1. The most taboo thing in the workplace is disdain for the boss, although we just like this kind of disdain.)
This kind of contempt stems from Andy's disinterest and neglect in fashion, because the biggest weakness of fashion is the fear of being ignored, so the devil and her subordinates will create all kinds of harsh standards and conditions, forcing everyone to step into the fashion circle The poor bastards succumbed to their rules and couldn't extricate themselves, and were exhausted physically and mentally, so they accepted the absolute authority of the devil from the inside out and obeyed obediently. (PS: 2. In the workplace, the boss will more or less set a benchmark for his own authority and set a benchmark for his subordinates, so as to tame and warn his subordinates. See and remember these benchmarks at the first time, clearly understand these rules and Properly obeying them will open a smooth path for one's work.)
Unfortunately, Andy's intelligent, hard-working defenses for her proud neglect were ripped off that stormy night when the Devil's flight was canceled. . The disheartened Antti finally followed the core values pursued by the devil and the coercive guys in the entire building, and instantly pushed himself to the position of the mainstay. (PS: 3. In the enterprise, the difficulty is not to work hard, but to work hard. Knowing what the boss and the enterprise need, and working hard to do it, will definitely be more effective and more effective than blindly busy. It's easy to get the approval of the boss.)
To be honest, the transformed Andy is really outrageously beautiful, and the beauty revolution driven by the fashion industry can really easily impress everyone with normal aesthetics. In the process of rehearsing a play, I was fortunate enough to participate in the selection of costumes for the actors. When faced with many gorgeous costumes, I could easily see the most primitive excitement in the eyes of the actresses. Dressed in costumes, the smiles of the girls will flow naturally from an unknown space, and the light shining in the pupils is enough to penetrate any mirror, directly expressing the happiness of being satisfied.
Beautiful, like the smell of opium poppy milky juice, take a full sip of its fragrance, and it is impossible to leave the taste of rising clouds.
In the process of climbing step by step, although Andy's smile was tired, it was by no means forced. She was working hard, but she was not tired. Especially after meeting a freelance writer with sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks at a high-end cocktail party, there was such a high possibility of overlapping between her original ideal and reality in an instant. At this time, she was full of conquest—or rather It's the courage and motivation to be conquered - what you are doing now. (PS: 4. During work, it is inevitable to find conflicts between ideals and the direction of effort. The best way is to change your ideals, or find a part of your work that matches your ideals, so that you can work hard Increases innumerable strength.)
At the same time, Andy's life is getting worse and worse, and the lack of time with friends and loved ones is one of the signs of a workaholic, but it is not the main reason for the bad life. The main reason for messing up life is that workaholics can no longer satisfy the dull happiness that friends and lovers bring. When Andy's beauty and intelligence are enough to scare the illustrator of the Party Central Committee and JK Rowling's publisher, the craft of making a big pot of red sauce really becomes less important. When Andy saw that the devil's married life was so bad, I don't think she was so surprised, but it was the harmonious and happy married life that made Andy feel strange. (PS: 5. Don't spy on your boss's private life, unless you have the intention of being a spoiler. This will bring disaster to you.) Maranda's revenge against Andy also makes people feel normal. The performance of the writer's magical powers is really surprising. (PS: 6. When a crisis occurs, you need a mentality of seeing it as an opportunity. Usually the moment when the crisis is resolved smoothly is the moment when you are truly appreciated by your boss.)
From a personal point of view, remember your boyfriend His birthday was nothing compared to remembering the names of the ambassador and his wife. (PS: 7, being more careful than your boss and colleagues is the quickest way to close the relationship between subordinates and subordinates.) And at this time, Andy really needs a good step to get himself out of the mediocre ground and get on the plane. Flights to Paris, the fashion capital. When a person has enough ability to satisfy his desires, the persistence of memories and a dull life may have become a heavy shackle.
To be honest, I remember one sentence from the whole movie.
"Come back to me when your life is completely ruined, then you should be promoted!"
What a beautiful sentence, especially when the bald-headed uncle spoke these words softly in front of the glamorous Madou dressed as a beast in the urban forest, and instantly realized what desire and power will make you need and what you will not need. , like a reinforced concrete forest, there can be no beasts full of desires, but there can be no desires like beasts. What the devil needs is not marriage, but suppressing headlines. She doesn't need married life, she just needs fashion. (PS: 8. When faced with career and life choices in the workplace, you must carefully weigh what you need most. Either sacrifice a family, or let Green X never exist at all.
) There are no good desires and bad desires, desire is desire, the purest thing, only distinguishing between more and less. Although there is a saying that "the history of human civilization is a history of controlling desires", take it as a joke, because few people can find strong enough reasons to convince them when they are truly capable of satisfying huge desires. For example, when he heard the pickup verse of "America is my motherland, Paris is my hometown", Andy, who had already left the ground, after a lot of perfunctory sentences, finally "there is no other excuse" to reject the sharp-mouthed monkey cheeks. The writer and the huge network of resources behind him have transformed from a "bloated" ugly duckling to a black swan that stretches out its dazzling feathers to meet its own sky.
When the bald-headed uncle praised Andy's random outfit, I knew that this black fairy tale was over, because Anty had already found his own parada. Maranda has seen her own shadow in Antti and gave her a choice. I don't know if Andy understands how she chose, but her smile has flowed naturally from an unknown space, and the light shining in her pupils is enough to penetrate any mirror, expressing the kind of expression directly. The joy of contentment - she really found the parada that fit her best and put it on gracefully.
"When you wear Prada, you become a witch."
……………………………………………… Dividing line …………………………………………
The first 97 minutes of the movie is definitely a masterpiece A beautiful black fairy tale, so that the dog tail sequel at the back makes me feel sick to my stomach.
1. I don't know what the concept of sex is for foreigners, but the result of Andy's reunion with her Italian sauce boyfriend at the end confuses me - when I still remember my old love in my heart, I can still happily write with the sharp-mouthed monkey. Is Andy, who is the writer rolling in the sheets, really the values of perseverance in ideals that the compound ending wants to express? Can it be interpreted as "too cheap and naive"?
2. 419, the conspiracy to get out of the bed as soon as the bed was rolled, why did you go earlier? This turning point is such a pain in the back, purely for the sake of the back pain ending at the end of the big reunion.
3. His boyfriend is a 2B, a 2B that exists purely for the reunion of family entertainment films. From the 105th minute, especially when saying "there will be cheese there too".
4. Andy has a 2B boyfriend, what about the other living devils? Don't hope that the happy ending will happen in real life. Since you choose to pretend, you must pretend to the end, otherwise there will be no other sauce man to rescue you. Of course, if you haven't chosen to pretend, you should weigh it again.
5. Without the last ten minutes, the movie is a good story, and the character of Andy is full of texture; with these ten minutes, the previous half sentence is a loud fart. A director's cut version is strongly recommended, leaving only the first 97 minutes.
6. The same sentence:
"When you wear Prada, you become a witch! "
