The Best Actor in the Vase of Meiyu

Chapter 1344 The Best of the Era

Deep love and deep responsibility.

It is precisely because of the deep love and countless surprises that Empire magazine expressed regret that "Nuan Nuan Inner Light" was not able to go further when it stood at the threshold of perfection.

What the movie lacks is a moment, a super moment that allows the movie to show its divinity and break free from its constraints.

However, they also know that such moments are not so easy to come by and cannot be achieved by just talking about them, so the legendary classics recorded in history are extremely precious.

So, despite the regrets, Empire magazine still gave it the highest praise:
One hundred points.

Even film critics, even creators who make a living by writing, will be at a loss for words at certain moments and realize the insignificance of language and words. No matter how gorgeous and brilliant the words are, they are not enough to express the surging emotions in their hearts. Instead, the most primitive, simple and plain ways are more effective.

The warmth conveyed by a hug. The shouting at a sports game. The words of apology or thank you that bridge the gap between people. The words “I love you”.

Or, in the current situation, a perfect score——

As film critics, they can remain rational and objective, analyze the advantages and disadvantages of a film from a positive and negative perspective and conduct in-depth analysis, discussing the imperfect parts of the film from the perspectives of the script, director, actors, etc.

However, none of this is necessary.

There are some works that, even if you know they are not perfect, you are still hopelessly in love with them, just like love.

One hundred points, this is the best comment.

Apparently, Empire isn't the only magazine that shares this idea; critics have reached a rare consensus.

So, this scene appeared.

All of them were uniform, all in a hurry, and neatly, all of them got full marks.

Such enthusiasm, like a lie, spread across the board, detonating the entire film market from the inside out. No wonder Zack Snyder couldn't stand it.

From the 95 points of "Dawn of the Dead" to the points of "Eternal Love", the visual impact has exceeded imagination, but I never expected that only after opening the comment list could I truly realize what the number "" stands for. The full points filled my vision.

It's not just the impact.

To be precise, Zack's pride and self-confidence, beliefs and hopes were all thrown into the crusher, crushed back and forth, leaving no residue.

One hundred percent, one hundred percent, one hundred percent. Don’t these film critics have any other words or other opinions in their minds?

Did Charlie Kaufman crawl into the heads of critics and manipulate them into giving consistent ratings, just like he did with "Being Malkovich"?
Of course, that is not the case.

In addition to the full score, there are still other scores, otherwise the media's comprehensive evaluation of "The Light Inside" should be 100 points, not 95 points.

In fact, not only the Baltimore Sun was dissatisfied, some film critics also did not like the work. Apart from the Baltimore Sun, the lowest score of the first batch of media reviews of "Eternal Love of Dreams" was 75 points.

From LA Weekly.

"Oh dear, what an imaginative story, so funny and so full of twists and turns that I kept asking myself, why can't it be better? Why am I so calm? The biggest problem with the whole movie is its hero:
Anson Wood.

I'm sorry, but I just can't believe that a man like Anson would be tortured by his own insecurity and vulnerability to the point of losing himself completely in a relationship, even if his opposite actress is Kate Winslet. "

An alternative view, but... unexpectedly it resonated with many people. Of course, in real life, people also know that a handsome appearance is not everything; but people tend to have such inertial prejudices, thinking that as long as you are good-looking, you can enjoy some invisible benefits, and those handsome men and beautiful women always have smooth sailing and no worries in the world of love -

This is not true. If you calm down and think about it carefully, you will find it.

Yet, the stereotypes are always there.

Therefore, it is understandable that a small number of viewers cannot fully immerse themselves in the story when watching "The Sun Is Shining".

To some extent, Anson's "vase" image became a stumbling block.

And, this isn't the only one.

Despite different opinions and perspectives, the Chicago Tribune also gave it a score of 75.

"Please don't get me wrong, I love this movie, Anson Wood does a great job with a self-deprecating sense of humor that fits seamlessly into the character and the story, which is not seen in his previous roles, and just proves that he can be a great actor.

However, if you calm down and think about it carefully, the essence of this role is no different from John Cusack's role in Being Malkovich and Nicolas Cage's role in Adaptation. Charlie Kaufman is still unable to break free from his own rut, as he is immersed in a world of self-pity.

A hit!

From the perspective of subject matter, type, story, etc., Charlie Kaufman's three current works are of completely different styles, and the way of opening up the imagination brings surprises again and again; but if you peel off the fancy shell and peek into the core, you can find that Charlie Kaufman's self is wrapped in it.

He was not able to get rid of himself for the time being.

This is also the shackle faced by every artist: creation often comes from oneself; but if you keep repeating yourself, you will fall into a rut, so when the creation reaches a certain stage, you need to start learning to break yourself and surpass yourself.

This is a difficult question, and countless artists are trapped in their own shadow throughout their lives.

From this perspective, it is precisely because "Being Malkovich" and "Adapted Screenplay" are so outstanding that film critics have higher expectations for Charlie Kaufman.

This is the difference in standards -

If it were just an ordinary screenwriter, film critics would have already kneeled down in worship, marveling at the screenwriter's flash of inspiration; but this is Charlie Kaufman, and although he was amazing, people expected more.

Rather than criticism, it is more of a suggestion and expectation.

Amidst the hustle and bustle, a comment from Rolling Stone magazine is undoubtedly the most appropriate summary:

Comments indicate that almost every era will have its own best love movie, because the love view, world view and values ​​of different eras change, and people's attitude towards love changes quietly. The biggest difference between love movies and action, disaster, science fiction, comedy and other genres is that:

Audiences can see the imprint of the times and cultural changes in these works.

Perhaps, when the times have changed and the times have changed, the new generation of young people may not be able to understand the ideas conveyed by those works; but this is undoubtedly a review of different cultures in different eras.

"The Warmth of Love" presents the younger generation's thoughts on love amid the social changes and turmoil since the millennium, and this is the most successful part of the movie.

“Best of the era!”

"The Rolling Stones said that 'The Warmth of the Heart' is the voice of the times."

And, ninety-five points!
