On the first day of work after the holiday, my mood was in the following emoji.
In order to alleviate everyone's "long holiday syndrome", the first working day usually has a nickname - legal fishing day. To touch the fish with a straight face, how to get less gossip after tea and dinner.
No, there is a small story worth "full recitation" that immediately came out fresh.
No matter how many unsolved mysteries there are in the world, love cats or dogs, it is certainly one of the biggest problems in life. To be able to make a staunch meow party turn against the wang and throw itself into the arms of the Wang Wang, you can imagine how much this person should have been "hurt".
To celebrate broadway reopening, the theme of the latest issue of Variety is "Return to Broadway." This interesting story comes from the cover character story of this issue. / 《Variety》
It was under this premise that an elderly man wrote a letter to the airline in order to take his dog with him when he was on the plane, saying that he "needed the continuous company of this dog, because my feelings were hurt and I had to have this treatment dog." ”
Then the airline wrote back to him and asked, what are your ways to prove that you really need it? The old man said, no problem, just look at how Hollywood treats my musical "Cats" and you will understand.
So the airline quickly approved his application, and even replied intimately that he "did not need to show the doctor's certificate".
The dog concerned and the dog concerned, because the breed of the dog is a Havana dog, so its name is Mojito. / twitter
The dog lover is Andrew Lloyd · Andrew Lloyd Webber, a children's shoe lover who loves musicals and Broadway, is sure to be familiar with his name.
It doesn't matter if you don't know, have you heard "Don't Cry For Me Argentina," "Memory," and "The Music of the Night?". It's all the work of this big guy.
The musical "Cat" mentioned in the short story is also one of his most widely known works.
This classic poster must be familiar to everyone.
As a young man, Andrew was a full-fledged cat slave, with a Siamese cat named Perseus who grew up. Even after the cat's death, he still follows the daily walking route of Perseus in the vicinity of South Kensington (London's wealthy quarter).
In order to "celebrate" his love of cats, Andrew adapted the children's poem of the British poet TS Eliot to create "Cats", which is recognized as the greatest modern musical.
Unexpectedly, Andrew, the light of the cat slave, finally "surrendered" to the enemy. After living for more than 70 years, Andrew bought a dog for the first time in his life and raised it at home, which is the only "benefit" brought to him by the movie version of "Cats".
So then again, how ugly is the movie version of Cats? In a word, the epic rollover tragedy is none other than it.
Come to think of it, a movie not only cost a lot of money to build, the production cost of nearly $100 million, but also put in a star-studded all-star cast.
"Moldy Mold" Taylor Swift, Old Drama Bone Ian McLean, acting diva Judy Dench, Oscar Best Supporting Actress Jennifer Hudson, "James Fat" James · Corden, "Queen of Comedy" Rebeyle · Wilson......
Directed by Tom Hober's resume is also very impressive, and he has directed "The King's Speech", "Les Misérables", "Danish Girl" and other masterpieces.
I called you a musty, you dare to answer... Forget it, I don't dare bark. / Cats
In terms of this supposedly invincible lineup configuration, only two "awards" were won: the most money-losing movie of 2019 and the worst movie of the 40th Golden Raspberry Awards. What's left is an endless stream of bad reviews.
The reason why the movie version of "Cat" has received such a consistent "negative point rolling" evaluation is mainly because the "cat" in the film is too scary and easy to cause normal human viewing discomfort.
Obviously it is a cute cat, but it insists on putting on the appearance of a person and exerting the "uncanny valley effect" to the fullest. With this visual impact, let alone appreciating the soundtrack and plot, one more look is a torture for the audience.
Don't come here!!! .jpg
Although the musical version of "Cat" is also played by human actors, when performing on stage, we can follow the presumptive principles of art and identify the actors on stage as "cats".
But once it is put on the screen and the state of the cat is performed in human form, the overall perception will present a false and contrived feeling. Obstinately simulating the cat's movements, in the end it will only draw a tiger and not an anti-dog, and become a disaster-level big mess.
Especially in the movie, there are not only "humanoid" cats, but also "humanoid mice" and "humanoid cockroaches". Moreover, in order to "100% restore" the predation scene of the cat, the film also arranged a plot of "humanoid cat raw swallowing humanoid cockroach".
Fortunately, I pressed the pause button in time, otherwise the next second would have been the scene of the tragedy. / Cats
The picture is so beautiful that I dare not look at it.
