There is such a kind of movie, they will not rack their brains and make great efforts in visual effects, give the audience a sense of transcendence in a limited time, nor will they pull a bright blind big card to create a point of view, and they will not be bored to create gimmicks and public opinion to catch people's attention, they just have a simple and authentic attitude, showing the most essential and warm side of the movie, perhaps many times like a dick carrying a camera, wandering around life, recording the seemingly ordinary bits and pieces, But it is this casual, dashing and natural energy that can inspire people to deeply inspire and resonate, even with the slow passage of time, it will not be eliminated by the innovation of science and technology or the trend of the times, because they have a kernel that never fades, that is, the understanding and understanding of life.
Frances who loves to dance has always held a beautiful and lofty dream, but has been doing nothing to go to a higher level, but at least there is a close friend Sophie around to accompany, but as Sophie prefers her boyfriend to choose family integration into reality, the distance between each other begins to grow wider and wider, the passing of friendship, career crisis, life difficulties, all of which are all attacked by Frances, but a series of blows did not consume her ideals and determination, This simple and cute optimist is not discouraged or resentful, but through various attempts to actively face the test and strive for opportunities, although in the end the self is still unable to meet the reality, but the dream is brilliant and wonderful blooming in another way.
The timeless black and white tones make everything seem more clear and natural, coupled with the familiar and moving soundtrack, as if to bring people into the unforgettable image world of the middle of the last century, black and white can always win the public's favor, it never dominates but can set off the atmosphere more charming, so that the audience can be more calmly and attentively involved in the situation of the film. The portrayal of the living conditions of small people, the familiar shooting methods of scenes such as street interiors, a series of witty remarks, and themes closely related to real life, the accumulation of these plots and details makes the film permeated with a free and casual and literary atmosphere, which naturally reminds people of the innocent era of constantly tapping the potential of the film to expand its creative space, and anna karina, full of spirituality, seems to flash in front of the eyes in an instant.
The finishing touch of this film is the performance of Greta gerwig, the sincere and sincere interpretation of the film adds a lot of points, the innocence, optimism, persistence, open-mindedness of Frances in the face of life setbacks... , let nature show out without pretense, that simple and innocent stupidity is very infectious, immediately will be attracted by this tall and even a little burly cute girl, and even make people look forward to making such a close friend, or live an optimistic and positive life like her, Her freehand performance gives this character a full and vivid charm. Cai Liangming once said that he hopes that his works can be full of power and stand the test of time, and this kind of subject may not have the difficult and profound connotation or theme of the usual literary and art films, but the understanding of the true meaning of life can always arouse the resonance of people's hearts and be renewed under the torrent of the times.
When they are young, many people may be like Franss, full of expectations and persistence for their dreams, even in the face of the injustice and tribulations of life, they will not hesitate to go forward, full of infinite vision and imagination for the future, even if they have to face the disappointment and frustration of being rejected, endure the weakness of their friends' departure, have to adapt to the embarrassment and embarrassment under the fence, but also have to actively integrate and cooperate with others and environments around them, and even return to their alma mater as a waiter, but she never wants to give up. Instead, it is to relieve stress and relax the mood in different ways, to trot on the street while dancing happily and casually, to accompany parents, to Paris, to find opportunities... Even if life repeatedly makes her difficult, she still faces her positively with an optimistic attitude, conveys strong and powerful positive energy, and gives the audience positive reflection and inspiration.
Many people often say that dreams are fragile in the face of reality, and can really be realized according to their own wishes, just like the friendship between Sophie and Frances in the film will be parted ways due to different outlooks on life under the guidance of reality, Sophie gave up her job and went to Japan to start a family with her boyfriend, and Frances has been insisting and working the road of dreams, and later in the reunion at school, Sophie, who seems to be infinitely happy and happy, poured out her regrets and pains, although there was a struggle in her thoughts. But still unable to escape the shackles of the family, and Frances seems to have raised her hands to reality, in fact, she did not give in easily, although she had to be isolated from the stage and sat in a secure office, but her choreography won her fame and applause, and her dream was realized in a more beautiful and charming way.
At first, they shared the same values with each other, but with the abduction of age and state of mind by reality, the concept began to change subtly, there were differences, estrangement and alienation, although in the end Franss and Sophie were reconciled, but the passion and enthusiasm of the past have slowly faded, and the only thing left may be the release of reality or the maturity after compromise, and finally they have to return to the road of paying and running for their own lives. Their thoughts, experiences and mentality are so familiar, but on the road of life, perhaps we are often conservative and safe to choose the easy opportunities given by reality, and silently and helplessly abandon the dreams that require all kinds of efforts and are difficult to achieve, and after the passage of time, they may regret, will be pathetic, will be relieved, will be sad, but more likely to be in the angularity of reality, the infinite remembrance of the past green years.
