Chapter 1: The review of Angels Love Beauty. On Saturday morning, I chose to watch a DVD. Angels Love Beauty made me spend two beautiful hours in excitement and ecstasy.
Audrey Tatu's smile captured me. Her smile was so bright and pure. When her smile bloomed, it suddenly made people think of dust, and even the world was eclipsed.
Of course, the film itself also gave me great joy. Because the puzzle it sets not only challenges my daily experience, but also challenges my thinking limitations. All the details, all the shots, all the plots, completely want to fall out of the sky. From beginning to end, I enjoyed guessing and solving puzzles. Often unexpected, people are suspicious; Then, I exclaimed for it, and after a while, I clapped my hands and sighed lightly. It was a wonderful song!
I like the beauty of the camera. I also like the little love, the beautiful machine is full of changes. I like to watch her put strawberries on her fingers one by one and then suck them into her mouth one by one; I prefer to watch her paint cute little animals on her fingers, and then make all kinds of vivid gestures; I am also more fascinated by the beautiful residence window. The camera switches quickly, and the bloom flowers fall, and the four seasons change in an instant. A shot is like a painting. Can't help but be intoxicating.
I also like the film's broad compassion, because it gives deep observation and gentle sympathy to the marginalized people.
When I just saw the beginning of the film, I guessed that it might be a reprint of Wuthering Heights. Lonely girls, neurotic parents and eccentric neighbors all seem to hint at the future direction. But suddenly, the girl became an "angel of love", and she secretly helped several people living in a lonely, lonely, depressed and even morbid state. She seems to have no self-life, and helping others is the only pleasure in her life. So, I think that the heroine seems to be out of touch, has no private life and no love, and is probably shaped as the spokesperson of the western Christian spirit to influence and benefit all beings. However, the film once again "deceived me". It turns out that the angel is also a mortal, and she also has cowardice and fear that she can't get rid of. In the face of her admiration, she is caught off guard, like a frightened rabbit who can only hope and escape ... Love beauty is not only a mortal, but also an ordinary person with a heart knot.
The people who love beauty, even herself, are marginal people with various psychological and physical problems. These people are either excluded by the mainstream or appear as "problem spokesmen" in ordinary film themes. In this film, they are the mainstream and the main characters. Although they have their own problems, they are not insurmountable obstacles. For example, a middle-aged woman who can't extricate herself from grief all day long just can't stand the pain of losing love; Old people who are lonely and trapped by diseases are actually just eager to communicate and comfort; To love beauty, we need to break through the cowardice of the mind and find the courage to love; Even the women who sell cigarettes and men who drink alcohol in bars just need emotional nourishment (although their breakup once again proves the pallor of love and the cruelty of life rules); Even a mentally retarded boy bullied by his boss has a passion for beauty and painting, and a little encouragement and support can make him smile again.
In this film, the daily experience of the mainstream people is greatly diluted, but the brush strokes of observation go deep into the hearts of the marginal people, touch their pain, observe their lives equally, and give them deep sympathy and sincere help by loving the beautiful hand. It is precisely because of this that the film makes people feel warm.
The reason why this film is good-looking lies not only in its unexpected story, but also in its combination of suspense and magic.
All the good deeds of loving beauty are done without the knowledge of others. Like a detective, she peeped into the secrets of others, and then completed a series of righteous acts in a secret and even childish way of hide-and-seek. Suspense, detective, these factors constitute sufficient suspense, which makes the audience want to stop. In particular, she is full of the magic color of comedy in the plot of investigation and anti-investigation with her beloved. We saw a portrait sculpture and winked at the hero. Four identical men in the photo of the Quartet are scrambling to give him advice. We will also see Ai Mei sobbing and watching her own funeral on the screen ... It's true and false, and it's also true and illusory. It's really wonderful.
Beautiful, warm and talented film. Really worth having!
Chapter 2: The review of Angels Love Beauty. I prefer to call it Angel Emily. Otherwise, it will cause a difference.
I have heard of this film for a long time and have always wanted to see it, but there is a kind of emotion in it. I have a strange habit. The more classic the film is, the less I want to get it and watch it early. I always hope that one day, I will meet it at a suitable opportunity, take it home, sit quietly on the sofa and press the play button. It's like a feeling of predestination.
Today, the last day of the weekend, for those office workers, is the last moan before the end of a good day. For me, a guy who only reads books and watches movies at home, every day is a weekend. What should I do this weekend? I came to the small shop where I often look for discs. Looking at it casually, Emily's big eyes and her elvish smile attracted me. When fate came, I immediately bought it, brought it home, and repeated my usual actions. The film begins.
The film adopts the conventional principle of character narration, and everything about Emily is introduced like a running account. From her birth, growth, family environment, parents' fate and so on, everything related to Emily has moved up. But the director is very powerful, using be adept at's scene scheduling, the lens processing is very wonderful. (I don't usually use the word wonderful, because I don't think there are many wonderful movies, hehe, arrogant.) Then, in Emily's youth, the whole story began to unfold in an all-round way. From finding childhood memories for the elderly, Emily began her "angel" journey. She was constantly helping others, including her father. Everyone who lives around her has been cared for by her, and the definition of angel has begun to play, and the whole story has also developed under the careful design of Emily. When it comes to her own love, the director and screenwriter have raised a new question. Angels help others, but who will help angels? As a result, the old glass man became an "angel", and it was his encouragement that made Emily dare to face up to her life and get her own happy love. At the end of the movie, I saw everyone who was carefully planned by Emily find their own direction in life again. In fact, the director also wants to tell us that Emily has also turned them into "angels". Just like a movie I have seen, it seems to be called "The Passing of Love", which tells a child to do a good deed, one by one, and finally tens of thousands of people have accepted this way of passing on love.
Chapter 3: The review of "Angels Love Beauty" is a story as warm as spring. I saw it in the warm and cold air of Nanjing. The director of this film seems to love beauty, with a little nervousness, childish playfulness and childish innocence and courage.
I remember that shortly after the film started, Xiao Ai Mei bid farewell to her "only friend"-"fish" in the intermittent rain. Her eyes were not only sad and helpless, but also seemed to have a little blessing to her "friend". At this time, the director gave the fish a shot seriously. It turned around in the clear water and was looking at Emily. In this movie, everything is animistic, loves beauty and keeps children's hearts forever, and persistently believes in things that adults will never believe. Therefore, the clouds on the horizon can sway into the appearance of a bear, so the people in the photo can laugh and scold each other, so the piggy desk lamp at the bedside can smile and turn itself off thoughtfully after falling asleep.
Love beauty is the kind of person who can connect with the little prince written by St. Exupery. She is an ordinary person on the edge and an angel from another planet, because she is a child. I remember when the little prince first arrived on the earth, he saw that only the children looked out with their faces close to the glass window on the train, while the adults all sailed to the unknown blankly. He once asserted that only the children could understand what they were really looking for. Therefore, in this film, a world of marginal characters can conjure up an ideal fairy tale kingdom in the eyes; In the life of a group of marginal figures, there will be tears and smiles that are unknown behind the ordinary. "Without you, who can tell the beautiful scenery?" The golden rose quietly blooms in the corner.
Every shot is so beautiful, because the camera looks through the beautiful eyes of love, and sees that the sunshine in France benefits everything, the river is glowing with golden light, and it also breathes the bright atmosphere in the small shop with double windmills and touches the eyebrows of people smiling. As far as the eye can see, it is a warm place of childlike innocence.
When reading the "late letter" carefully written by Ai Meili, the landlady who said that she was "born an abandoned wife" was full of tenderness and gently wiped her husband's photo. Her loneliness and eccentricity, her life's pain, are all because of love. Times have changed, but she is a bloated old woman. However, her love has not changed, so her hatred cannot be shaken. However, when she opened the letter, we saw what a pair of blazing eyes, what a sincere and persistent but dusty heart! At this moment, we understand that loving beautiful children's tricks is a little emotional feedback, and only this little love feedback is enough to comfort this woman for the rest of her life.
The blind old man poked around with crutches by the roadside, never daring to cross the road. The audience knew that Ai Mei would definitely go back to help him, but they didn't know that she would help him like this. Ai Mei is not learning from Lei Feng, because her focus is not on helping the old man cross the road, but on telling him all the ways of the world, letting him smell the fragrance of the muffin shop and telling him that there is a lovely child looking at a dog, but the dog is staring at the roast chicken in the window. Love beauty is an angel, because she is not giving favors, but projecting light. It's not that I help you, but that I care about your heart, understand your life and bring the world back to your eyes. This kind of mind is full of light and wind, so there is no need to record all the good deeds in the diary to be comforted. She is enjoying the light, warm, peaceful and happy world.
In this movie, there are no sophisticated eyes, and the fruit stall owner is bad and cute; Without pretending to be deeply charming, the hero is just so simple and warm, bright and affectionate. All these people who live in a small corner of the world and have all kinds of weird habits, because they have bathed in the same sunshine, have infected this small corner with the charming charm of a paradise. They may be weird and withdrawn, but they are all so amiable and approachable. Children's eyes lead us to observe life carefully and find that human nature itself can be so lovely. It suddenly occurred to me that people are not used to praise, but to be close.
Many times, after watching a movie at night, I always lose sleep, and all kinds of thoughts collide in my brain, and new ideas come out constantly. Such a good movie makes me sigh in my dream. Yesterday, after watching angels love beauty, they fell asleep in bed and had no dreams all night, which was especially sweet. What a child's heart can warm can be so far away. So, that's good.
Chapter 4: The review of Angels Love Beauty. I have heard about this film, but I have never had a strong desire to see it. Because two words and a poster came to mind, I set a place for it: a humanistic philosophy film. A poster of these two words is: France, angels love beauty, and love beauty with a strange and mysterious smile.
It is a little ingenious to translate this film into "Angels Love Beauty" in Chinese. "Love beauty" is the heroine of this film, and when it is connected with "angel", it can have two meanings: first, there is an angel named love beauty. Second, this angel named Love Beauty has a beautiful heart because she loves beauty. This name has the same meaning as Ni Ping's Beautiful Feet.
This film describes a girl who unfortunately lost her mother in her early years. Since then, her father has been addicted to paying homage to her mother. Loneliness is the girl's childhood companion, and a life of playing and entertaining alone has gradually developed her eccentric character. Moreover, her father thought she had a heart attack and asked her to study at home, while her mother was in charge of her studies. The death of her mother brought her studies to a screeching halt. This life lasted until she grew up and became a waitress. She found a man's toy box 40 years ago by chance and worked hard to find this man and return it to him. At the same time, her lucky god of love also came quietly. Nino, a boy who likes to collect torn photos under the simple photo studio, quietly enters her world.
The opening of "Angels Love Beauty" is a series of games that the little girl played when she was a child, but she was alone. In her lonely childhood, she can only entertain herself. She plays with her fingers to create the shape of flying wings of butterflies. She drew strange cartoons on the tiger's mouth of the palm alone; She sticks her face to the glass to see how she is squeezed; She plays dominoes with mahjong alone; She wears large glasses to play alone; She reached out and slid slowly along the trajectory of the glass mouth; She plays the coin alone; She playfully sticks strawberries in her fingers and eats them one by one ... Unfortunately, no matter how funny the game is, it is always "she alone", and we don't know how much fun she can get from it, but from the following plot, she is optimistic, attentive and full of fun in life. Although this fairy girl is a little eccentric, her life trajectory is definitely full of sunshine.
The death of a beautiful mother has a dramatic effect. It turned out that a man who committed suicide jumped down from the upstairs and smacked her to death. I don't know the director's intention in arranging her mother's fate like this. I wonder if the person who wants to die is dead, but the person who doesn't want to die is dead. So Amy became an orphan at the age of eight. She is called an orphan not because she is an orphan, but because she is not an orphan. Maybe it's a bit awkward for me to say this. If I don't understand it myself, I'm afraid I'll have to think about it for half an hour. Let's just say that even though Amy's mother died, she still has a father, so she can only be said to be a single parent but not an orphan. It is depressing that even though she had a father, he didn't give her warmth since she was a child. After losing her wife, she became obsessed with building a mourning platform for her and even ignored her existence. So she is no different from an orphan.
Love the beautiful "glass man" downstairs. This frail old man has been painting all his life. The glass man and Ai Mei discuss the expression of the girl holding the cup, which is actually about loving the beautiful childhood. This discussion of returning to the theme is a sublimation of loving beautiful people. It's an understatement but profound.
When it comes to the actress who plays the leading role of Ai Mei, her appearance is really a little surprising. She gives people an indescribable feeling that she is an elf, but it is not too much.
Almost all the characters in Angels Love Beauty are eccentric, their behaviors are unpredictable, their lives are unimaginable, and their almost neurotic thoughts and behaviors are reasonable and unexpected. We understand that this is the intention of director jean pierre jeunet, but we can even say that we are willing to fall into it, feel life with them and touch the sensitivity that collides with our lives from time to time. Fairy tale world-like wonderful, dreamy kingdom, fairy-like characters spinning and intertwined. This kind of magic and excitement prompted me to watch it three times in one breath, and then review it once every other month when I started writing its film review.
What attracts me is not the scenes that are a little messy but want to reveal something, nor the purity and freshness of its scenes, but the main colors of the film: green and red. Maybe I watch too few movies, which is the most direct and profound film in color rendering among the movies I watch. The film impressed me with bright red and green clothes and bright red and green scenes. Like the fairy tale kingdom I drew when I was in kindergarten, the picture was painted with crayons. I wonder how the teacher can stand my "heavy makeup"
Some people say that this is another deliberate act of jean pierre jeunet. Maybe so.
The background music of Angels Love Beauty is also very nice. It is the composer YannTierson's classic work with accordion as the main instrument, supplemented by piano and harmonica, seeking fantasy in melodious and hurried, and excitement in romance and passion. When we close our eyes and listen quietly to the soundtrack of J'ySuisJamaisAlle, we are restless but not confused.
There are many wonderful scenes in "Angels Love Beauty". Nino's photos can talk, and the toy images that love beauty will be sentimental. When Georgie and Yue Se make love, the glass at the counter will tremble rhythmically, and the key in Ai Beauty's pocket will glow. It is so reasonable that everything that is unreal and doesn't exist appears there. What we felt there was not a fairy-tale freshness, but a real return.
Believe me, after reading it, you will like her as much as I do.
