Column: "How to Betrayed Relatives" Film Critic
Author: Chocolate
Betrayal is not my original wish. They are all forced by others, the difference is whether you have to compromise the glory, or hungry to make yourself happy.
I like the title of the movie "How to Betrayal", the majestic and majestic look is a comedy. The protagonist is a journalist who is known as a spoof of celebrities. He writes criticizing articles. He is often attacked in the UK, and the magazine seems to go bankrupt. But his spoof actually aroused the interest of the editor-in-chief of a famous American fashion magazine. The editor-in-chief was so tossed at the university that year. He traveled far and wide to let him come to work in the metropolis. The protagonist is naturally excited and full of desire. So the jokes began, the first night of picking up girls failed to find a personal demon, and the landlord's old lady collapsed. No one pays attention to work, and everyone is treated as a rookie, and he still doesn't know he is boring. He made a lot of noise, but always backfired. He fell in love with a beautiful newcomer star, who was not the protagonist at all, but he killed the actress' dog. The protagonist asks the editor, what do you think of me, I can't do anything here. The editor-in-chief just told him, stop making trouble with me, okay, you and I know, we attacked because we have never had a ticket to the banquet, and now I let you into the circle of celebrities, you just stay with me , Do something business. The protagonist was hit hard, and the only female colleague who accompanied him to make him feel happy was also a junior who had a relationship with the deputy editor-in-chief. Of course, the protagonist is also of a famous background. His father is a well-known British scholar, and his mother is a female star who died young. He finally compromised and stopped insisting on his ideas. Then the woman of fame and interests embraced him again in an instant, until he finally dreamed of having sex with the actress, he remembered that he had forgotten the life he wanted most, which was exchanged for dignity and passion. So he rebelled and continued to make the upper-class society embarrassed, in order to find himself, and at the same time, to hug the people he really loves. Only then did all the jokes come to an end, and a scene of love was staged. Then this would be regarded as the betrayal of the people.
The film’s fun is not a pure spoof. It’s adapted from a real story, using the remarks in the comic "Dream Eater". It is serious and funny. In fact, it's all sad and out-of-compatibility. It makes the audience feel empathetic and produces unparalleled hilarious laughter. This is actually a very interesting thing. Generally, the production of jokes is the beginning of embarrassment. In reality, we are the most resistant to embarrassment. Therefore, we are well-dressed and graceful, so as not to offend people or create scenes that make us unable to step down. But we saw a person who didn't know good or bad gag in the film but was shot everywhere, and got nothing. We can't help laughing (no need to reject it, that's ridicule, and we are extremely happy that we didn't make such a mistake), but who can deny that we don't have such a trace of approval in our hearts-I really want to have such a happy life! But I told myself immediately, stop talking nonsense, and work hard. So, with a very nonsense ending-this is human nature.
A reporter with an idea, although this idea may not be useful, he is at least a persistent person, attracted to the upper class by fame and fortune. His unsuitability includes both his own reserved shame and his deepest persistence. It is not right to give in, be yourself. But being himself made him feel frustrated, and behind those dazzling lights was rotten and indifferent. Most of the stars who say I am so happy on the screen are acting and can’t stand the careful arrangements. This had a great impact on him. He compromised for a while, only because he lost his favorite woman. When he had the courage to express his love for his female colleagues, the female colleagues took the lead in choosing an associate editor who was hypocritical but more promising than himself. More often, men are not falling in love with women, but fighting against potential pressure from other men. Because as Murakami said, men are like consumables and women are trophies. In this respect, the protagonist is a weak person, until he gives up his persistence and becomes a docile person, and then opportunities follow one after another, and he becomes a famous and successful person. Until the ring left by his mother, his important beloved thing, was arbitrarily played with as a random bet, and he knew that his beloved female colleague had been waiting for him, he couldn't help but cheer up. But it was also that he made the upper-class society go crazy and broke the "ecological balance" that they carefully maintained. So basically how to be intoxicated, beautiful, and fashionable, this is still a humanistic film with strong grassroots spirit. A bit similar to "The Witch Wearing Prada", the difference is more humorous, and of course more absurd, but this is our fashion circle.
In fact, any circle is nothing more than this. Once it can form a circle, it means that he sets a threshold, does not allow the intervention of different opinions, and stands on his feet. You will indeed lead a decent life. But the creativity we call "life force" in your body will inevitably disappear. You are already an old man. Fortunately, our world is ruled by old people, and you just need to blend in.
It’s not to say that breaking is justified, but our values are too easy to be floated by some superficial things. If the protagonist’s all protests are like showing when he is not gaining fame and fortune, but in the end of his film, he gave up others and allowed him to compromise and change. Come to the fame, to choose what you want. That kind of firmness and steadiness is the most important rule to obtain happiness, even if the people betray their relatives. But who knows, the one who can run away may not be an important pro, and should have left long ago.
If this is the case, the reality is not always happy. So the protagonist in the film gave us one hour of jokes and half an hour of sorrow. What we can do after watching the movie is to try our best not to violate our intentions, but this is probably the most difficult requirement.
Finally, make a metaphor that is not very appropriate. Because I was born in the grassroots, I certainly have a potential hatred of wealth for the drunken fans of the upper class. Until later, I have been watching "The Queen of Eight Diagrams", which is nothing more than telling the story of a pair of men and women changing love relationships with each other. The creator seems to be forgiving. Interested in discussing how many modes of romance can be converted in it. This is not the point, but at that moment I suddenly made it clear that I was not that hatred of the rich, because it was too narrow. Although the upper class has the hypocrisy that everyone hates, but at least they can survive each other even if they hate you. And a good work of art does not have a clear utilitarian mentality to teach you how to do it. Instead, it tells you how the world should be, and you can think about where to go.
But the most essential thing is that no one should be deprived of free will. Good works with humanistic pursuits should potentially inspire people to pursue truth, goodness and beauty, but it is so difficult and implicitly speaking. Of course there are counterexamples, such as "Little Times".
Anyway, this is indeed a very interesting era. Try to keep your mentality as healthy as possible, not to mention making you noble, in fact, when it involves health preservation, you should take care of yourself. Otherwise, what else can be done.
Give it a try, we also betrayed one another at a certain moment. Although we all know that it is so difficult.
