A Day Trip to a Good Dream is a new work by director Nicholas Beddos, which has a rating of 8.1 points, which is better than 87% of love movies. How did this film stand out in the 2020 film market? Let Rongsi take you through it.
Starring Daniel Otei, Gyrom Canet, Dolia Tillier, Fanny Al and others, the film tells a "crossing" story without sci-fi elements.
Victor and Marianne are an old husband and wife, once very affectionate, but love and passion are worn away by life, the two live together, quarrel every day, and finally one day, Marianne gets angry, kicks the victor out of the house, and Victor moves to a friend's apartment.
After half a lifetime together, from lover to enemy, victor did not forget the beauty of the past, he gave everything and just wanted to relive the good memories.
With the help of his son and friends, Victor, who has lost his enthusiasm for life, decides to accept the mysterious experience provided by "Memories Of The Company", so that the realistic scenes built by the film props and the acting skills of professional actors can take him back to the day when he met his beloved in the bar, relive the beautiful love affair of the sky and thunder to hook the earth fire, can everything happen as expected?
The ending of "Good Dream Day Trip" is not conventional, and it is very warm, after the previous plot laying, it finally detonated emotions and aroused people's thoughts.
This deliberate blank space, full of interpretation, symbolizes both the love of youth and the marriage of middle age. It is as if a clichéd philosophy is being re-examined: life is like a play, and drama is like life.
The director uses time travel to create a real dream to help the elderly male protagonist rediscover love and marriage.
One virtual and one real, one real and one illusion, one new and one old, compared with the two, the "good times in the past" filter is also more intense.
But the film is not only floating in love, but also conveying a sharp and explicit inner shape through the cloak of romantic literature and art.
At the beginning of the film, the "Time Travel Company" is explained with a large number of shots and time, and the mechanism and shell of this virtual game are constructed, reflecting the reality pathologies through this French love movie.
Drama within a play, layer by layer, the art of drama and film under the blessing of the interactive world of virtual reality, the unity of people and drama, no matter how realistic, after all, is just a high-level tool to help people recognize the emotions in real life, and cherish the people in front of them and the current days.
The male protagonist once entered the drama too deeply, the true and false were indistinguishable, and even fell in love with the actress in the play, which is also an interpretation of the film's dream-making project, and even a kind of ridicule.
No wonder some viewers have issued such an exclamation after watching the movie: how boring and mediocre life is, how radiant this movie is.
Indeed, the film's script is exquisite, there has always been a dramatic conflict, and the concept of filmmaking is used through the series to bring the audience an immersive viewing experience. I have to say that the director's sense of design between virtual reality and reality is really too good, several story lines are complete, and the intertwined parts are also outstanding.
But what Rongsi wants to explore more is the thinking and exploration brought to us behind the film.
Gottman, a famous American marriage psychologist, once said: In long-term married life, one party thinks that the intolerable shortcomings of the other party are exactly the advantages you admired him at that time.
All love and marriage must be sweet at the beginning, but the real life will be full of all kinds of contradictions, conflicts, choices, long time will wash away those past beauty, only each other's complaints.
In a person's life, there will be the most precious memories, let time change, human feelings change, memories will never change, but will only become more and more precious, from time to time will always be eager to return to that moment. Youth white colt suddenly passed, life "good dream day trip", broken mirror can not be reunited, then love it again!
"The scarf picked up is the love of youth: rampage is violent; the scarf that is not picked up is the marriage of middle age: familiarity replaces passionate impulses." Looking back, what makes people feel the heart is the young you, or the young self, which is worth everyone in the marriage siege city to seriously ponder?
