Chapter 732: In the midst of darkness and cruelty, strive to give happiness(1/3)

A small number of Chinese movie fans actually deliberately whetted everyone's appetite on the Internet.

There was a tacit agreement not to spoil any of the content, which made domestic fans who were looking forward to this movie gnashing their teeth in hatred!

We can only wait for the reports from film critics and media people.

"Life Is Beautiful" has received quite a lot of attention, and after all, Li Yi's name is there. This is the film that can be said to have received the most attention at this year's Berlin International Film Festival.

Therefore, soon several international media cooperating with the Berlin Film Festival reported on "Life is Beautiful"!

"Empire" magazine: "There are many anti-war classic films in the history of film. They reveal the conflict between war and human nature by describing war, explore the relationship between war and human beings, express the yearning and pursuit of peace, and inspire people to reflect on the evils and crimes that lead to war.

The harm it brings to people.

However, "Life is Beautiful" breaks through tradition in terms of artistic expression techniques, abandoning the traditional documentary expression techniques of anti-war films, and goes deeper into the details, telling the life story of a small person in a big era with laughter and tears, and writes a novel

A gripping tragicomedy. The intersection of heaviness and laughter embodies a unique optimistic poetry and the power of thought to see through human nature."

"Variety": ""Life is Beautiful" uses black humor to describe the joys and sorrows of Guido's family in the concentration camp, showing Guido's longing for a beautiful life and his unique optimism in a cruel environment. "Life is Beautiful" is not

It's a tragedy. From the very beginning, it can be seen from Guido's funny appearance that the director wanted to create a comedy atmosphere, but he definitely did not deliberately weaken the ideological nature of the film for the sake of kitsch.

First, the film uses the enthusiastic and optimistic civilian Guido's pursuit of the aristocratic lady Dora to highlight the beauty and value of emotions, as well as the great power of these emotions in cruel situations; second, it shows Guido's sincere love for his son that transcends everything.

Father's love allows the audience to experience the huge heart-shaking emotion in the tenderness, and at the same time, it prompts the audience to experience and reflect on the war from a new perspective."

"Hollywood Reporter": "This is a story about lies, but it is the most beautiful lie I have ever seen.

100 points for love!

"Life is Beautiful" makes our hearts flutter with the phrase "Good morning, princess".

From then on, every unexpected encounter between Guido and Dora was a carefully planned confession by Guido.

What really touches us is never farewell or tragedy, but the spirit of love.

My courage plus your courage is enough to deal with this world.

1000 points of family affection!

Guido used his great fatherly love to prevent the invasion of darkness from Joshua. His story tells the world that a father's major responsibility is to protect the innocent spiritual world of his children.

The comedy atmosphere allows the film to show the darkness and cruelty of reality while also having some joy.

The cruel background of the war is deliberately weakened. Behind the comedy is a thought-provoking compassion, which makes the narrative effect more suggestive and infectious. The greatness of emotion, the tenacity of human nature, the absurdity of fate, and the ugliness of war are all thoroughly and deeply explored.

.”

The Berlin Film Festival program also rated "Life is Beautiful" as high as 3.7 points (out of 4 points)!

It can be said that in front of the audience of the movie that has been screened, it can be said that the audience is at the top of their game, and they can see all the mountains and small things at a glance.

The second-ranked female boxing movie "Midnight Confusion" only scored 3.1 points. If it were compared to previous years, it can be said that a score of more than 3 is considered a high score.

But this year it's obviously not enough.

"Life is Beautiful" was touted by the media and fans. It was screened at the Berlin International Film Festival and it was hard to get a ticket.

Even though it has been screened several times, it is still very popular!

According to the Berlin Film Festival program brochure: "If you want to watch a comedy, "Life is Beautiful" is suitable for you. If you want to watch a tragedy, "Life is Beautiful" is also suitable for you. If you want to have both, then "Life is Beautiful"

"Life is Beautiful" must be the most suitable movie for you!"

Movie fans from China finally no longer whet the appetite of other movie fans who didn’t come.

"The strongest confession in "Life Is Beautiful": "You can't imagine how much I long to make (harmonious) love with you, not just once, but over and over again. I want to do it now, for the rest of my life."

"Hello! Princess! "Life Is Beautiful" perfectly explains what it means to be an "interesting soul, one in a million"!"

"I think this is a movie that all men must watch. It can teach all men how to be husbands and fathers."

"Director Dog is really good! The first half of this movie can definitely be said to be a textbook movie that men must watch before getting married. Of course, if the first half is a comedy, then the second half is a tragedy, and it can even be said to be a large-scale movie.

It’s a tragedy. Anyone who is familiar with Director Gou’s style will find it unfamiliar. The more you laugh in the front, the more miserable you will cry in the back!”

"Can you imagine? The whole movie "Life is Beautiful" has a sense of humor and absurdity, without a trace of blood or tears. But the people inside the movie were laughing, but I, the audience outside the movie, cried miserably!"

"The first half will make all women envious of meeting such a man, and the second half will make all fathers doubt whether they are qualified!"

Fans who came to the Berlin Film Festival and saw "Life is Beautiful" received almost unanimous praise, and it was a blast!

This made domestic movie fans gnash their teeth in even more hatred.

"It's better not to let us know anything!"

"When can we see this movie?"

"Is it too late for me to go to Berlin?"

"It is said that the first place in the venue score means that the Grand Slam is stable?"

In fact, being ranked first in the venue catalog is often not a particularly good thing.

Generally speaking, the three major European film festivals are hotbeds of upsets, even worse than the Oscars.

A movie that is unanimously favored by the media has a high probability of winning an award. However, this award may not be the highest Golden Bear Award, it may also be a Silver Bear Award.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The probability of the latter is even higher.

After all, as usual at the Berlin International Film Festival, can I still let you guess the winner of the final award?

However, the public relations team of "Life is Beautiful" is taking action, and Li Yi is really bleeding a lot in order to win the Grand Slam this time.

After all, even if I shuddered at the last moment, I wouldn’t be short of this little money.

However, Li Yi's public relations team is taking action, and other films that are expected to win awards are also taking action.

For now, the award is still a mystery!

In terms of evaluations by the media and film critics, "Life is Beautiful" still tops the entire Berlin Film Festival!

Film magazines such as "Empire", "Variety", "Hollywood Reporter" and "S" have all given "Life is Beautiful" extremely high evaluations. Compared with other films in the main competition section of the Berlin Film Festival, to use a more arrogant word, that is

, everyone who can fight!

At the same time, the long-awaited reviews of the movie "Life is Beautiful" that fans have been waiting for have begun to come out one after another.

Zhou Qingquan, deputy editor-in-chief of China's "Film Weekly", wrote in a film review sent back to China from the Berlin Film Festival:

""Life is Beautiful" directed by Li Yi.

It can be said that the first half and the second half of this movie are two different movies. How happy the first half is and how tragic the second half is.

I believe everyone remembers the scene where Guido chases Dora.

It is true that life is full of surprises, and every encounter is a carefully arranged romance!

But what about in reality?

What really made Dora fall madly in love with Guido, and what allowed Guido to pursue Dora was not only because he was smart, but more importantly, he regarded Dora as his princess.

Not only did he say that, he also did it.

Pursuing a girl you like, using all kinds of surprises and romances, in fact, in my opinion, is not Guido’s most unique charm. The most memorable thing is his consistent attitude, whether before marriage or during marriage.

Since then, Dora has been treated like a princess.

Usually when we are in love, many people say that we are a princess before we get married, a queen on the wedding day, a concubine when we are pregnant, and after giving birth, we become a maid!

But Guido always regarded Dora as his princess!

After getting married and having Joshua, he still will not forget this, giving his princess surprise and romance in his daily life.

It has truly been done so that she can be a princess at any time, and she can have surprises and romance at any time!

This is his most valuable thing!

He wrote "Good morning, princess" on the cake, took Dora away on horseback, laid a carpet for Dora, talked to her on the radio in the concentration camp, and played songs to her... These behaviors were all very romantic. It can be said that Guido loved Dora.

Dora's love is consistent and never changes.

Even in the last moments, the most touching thing is that Guido went to find Dora, only to be discovered and shot.

What's even more cruel is that the war ended the next day.

I think many people may have questions after watching the movie: If Guido had not gone to Dora, would their family have been reunited the next day? Was Guido's death meaningless?

But just because we think from the perspective of normal people, we think that the first thing to do is to ensure our own safety. Normal people will not risk being shot to find their wives like Guido, and they will not spend a lot of money.

Zhou Zhang would weave a white lie for his son, and he would not be like Dora who took the initiative to be sent to a concentration camp even though she was not a Jew...

Precisely because normal people would not do such things, the actions of Guido and Dora are even more touching, because they did things that people did not have the courage to do.

Dora is willing to go into a concentration camp to be with her family, and Guido is willing to risk his life to say "Good morning, princess" on the radio and play songs to her, which further illustrates their sincere relationship.

The movie does not directly use bloody and horrific scenes to reflect the tragedy of the concentration camp, but rather uses a straightforward narrative to show how their previous life was happier by comparing it with the happy life of Guido's family in the first half. I think this

The more it highlights how painful life in the concentration camps was.

The more humorous and interesting the tone of the film is, the more it highlights the sadness of the ending.

If there is no peace, how do you know how cruel war is?

Different people have different opinions on whether the movie "Life is Beautiful" is a tragedy or a comedy. But like most people, I still shed tears after watching this movie. No matter how comedic its shooting techniques are, I still shed tears.
