Recently watched a French love movie "True Love 100%", the French love movie began with a romantic tone, which made people full of expectations. But after watching it, I found that the director's grasp of the rhythm of the film was decent, and from the storyline, it belonged to the story of the old-fashioned playboy finding true love. Although the storyline seems a bit old-fashioned, the female characters and romantic plot design make me feel amazing. Let's talk about the movie "True Love 100%".
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > shortcomings: the plot is decent and slightly bland</h1>
"True Love 100%" This movie belongs to the typical romantic love movie, the storyline is relatively flat, there is no twist and turning plot, and the storyline is like a long stream of water. According to the usual routine of love films, the male and female protagonists meet but do not fall in love with each other, and in the process of getting along, they gradually develop feelings, separated for some reasons, two people overcome internal or external "difficulties", and finally a lover eventually becomes a family.
The reason why I want to talk about the shortcomings first is because the plot is the framework of the whole movie. If you don't like this classic love movie style, then this movie is unattractive to you.
The male protagonist joslan in the movie "True Love 100%" is handsome and golden, is the boss of a company, even if he is 50 years old, he is still handsome and maintains a good figure, his eloquence is very good, he can coax women around, and his lying skills are first-class. Until he went to his mother's funeral, sitting in his mother's wheelchair, he was mistaken for a disabled person by a neighbor. Neighbors introduced him to her sister Florence, a real woman in a wheelchair who had been in a car accident. So the story unfolds, the two understand each other after a good feeling, and because of the lie the male protagonist chose to withdraw, and the female protagonist believes that true love can overcome the lie, and finally Joslan overcame the fear in his heart, and the lover finally became a family.
The main plot is well-behaved and flawless, but there is nothing particularly surprising about it. The male protagonist and the female protagonist know each other to gradually understand, and finally release the two people together. There are no big ups and downs in the plot, and if it is a light pastime movie, it is passing.
If the main plot is decent, then the secondary plot seems very empty and inexplicable.
The male protagonist Joslan has a female secretary, and the female secretary has been encouraging joslan to tell him the truth after learning that joslan is posing as a disabled person, and later helps him to understand the situation of the heroine Florence, which has contributed to the progress of the relationship between the two people. But later, the female secretary suddenly changed her style, saying that she dressed herself every day and changed different clothes, hoping that the boss could notice her and ask the boss what was the difference between her and the heroine? Is it just because she's not disabled?
From these dialogues and performances, the female secretary is very deeply in love with the boss Joslan and cares deeply. But for the plot of the female secretary's jealous questioning, the conflict between the female secretary and Joslan came too suddenly, and there was not enough foreshadowing in the front. The behavior of the female secretary is actually out of touch with her previous performance, although there are also plots in the front that show that the female secretary may have a crush on Joslan, but there is no specific action performance. Therefore, the outbreak of the female secretary at this moment is a lack of sufficient logical support.
In this movie as a whole, the plot is decent, except for the sub-plot is somewhat hollow, the plot processing and rhythm grasp are still above the passing line.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > Pros: Stunning female character development plus romantic plot</h1>
As I mentioned in the film review of "Independence Day" before, when it comes to the shaping of female characters, most of the films in which women are subordinate, even if the "Independence Day" film adopts a multi-line narrative approach, multiple protagonists participate in saving the world, but without exception, these protagonists are male characters and do not give female characters a chance.
But the female characters in True Love 100% surprised me. The heroine Florence is a violinist, tennis player and disabled in a wheelchair. She is optimistic and positive to face life, and the first time the male protagonist Joslan changed his mind about the heroine was to see her performance in the tennis game, full of vitality. The vitality of life she showed infected Joslan. Although she is disabled, she is optimistic and strong and lives very sunny.
But this is not enough, too positive character image will appear a bit false. So after her sister learned that Joslan was pretending to be disabled, she and her sister wanted to talk and stop talking, and the sister directly said that she had long found out that Joslan was pretending, but she wanted to rely on true love to overcome the lie. Although she discovers Joslan's hypocrisy and lies, she also sees love for her. In her last love, she broke up decisively because she found out that the other party was cheating. In fact, she has always longed for love, and this time she wants to gamble, betting that true love will win.
Her wisdom to see through and not to break, her bravery for love, her humor and optimism, all make this role tend to be full. Although the male protagonist is handsome and golden on the outside, but on the inner level, the male protagonist is anxious and afraid, he is afraid of aging, afraid of true love, afraid of injury. Especially after the comparison with the heroine, it reflects the personal charm of the heroine.
The setting of the male and female protagonists also has ingenuity. The male protagonist is healthy but "disabled" at heart, he uses a cynical appearance to protect himself, he lies, timid, and dare not give. Although the heroine is physically disabled, she is very healthy inside, sunny. It can be said that the two character settings of the male and female protagonists are complementary.
Of course, in addition to the more three-dimensional portrayal of female characters and the novel role settings of male and female protagonists, the romantic elements and compositional aesthetics in the film are also enough to impress people. The romantic bridge section in the film makes people yearn. Especially when the male protagonist Joslan asked the female protagonist to have dinner at home, the two people finished eating. The whole floor sinks into the water, and the heroine's red dress blooms like a beautiful red rose in the water, and the picture is like a beautiful oil painting. This screen can be used as a computer desktop background, which is very beautiful. The romance of that moment quickly heated up the feelings of the two people, driving the storyline behind.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > concluding remarks:</h1>
Overall, in terms of plot, this is a romantic love movie above the passing line, but it is not excellent, and the storyline is bland. But the setting of the heroine is out of the flat framework, and the heroine is wise, optimistic, brave, and very attractive. The male and female protagonists are novel in setting, romantic elements are powerful, and if you are looking forward to a romance film, this film will not disappoint you.
