What is the myth of love?

The Love Myth, directed by Shao, a post-90s director, and starring Xu Zongheng, Ma Yili, wuyue, was released in May last year and won great acclaim. Douban score is as high as 8.3. The following is the love myth I compiled for you, for reference only, and I hope it will help you.

What does the love myth say? 1 What is love? Just like there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people and a thousand kinds of love in the eyes of a thousand people, everyone has a completely different definition of love. A deep kiss is love, a hug is love, holding hands, a cup of milk tea, saying good night ... In different people's eyes, although love can bring a beautiful and romantic experience, it has a different look.

Many love movies of the same type often fall into the dilemma of love definition.

In contrast, the newly released love myth is undoubtedly much more mature than many films of the same type. It does not give a clear definition of love at the beginning of the story, but lets the audience follow the protagonist's perspective, return to life, return to reality, and explore what love is in life together.

The hero of the story is Lao Bai, an "older man" who is over middle age and divorced and single. When he was young, he worked as an art teacher in a primary school and once had a serious job in a TV station. However, when he reached middle age, he lived a very free and easy life-he lived a chartered car life on weekdays, worked part-time as an art teacher, and taught some grandfathers and old ladies to sketch.

If the above is not enough to explain his free and easy life, then the following should let you know about the colorful middle-aged life-dating your favorite person to watch a drama performance, going to a cafe for a cup of coffee or visiting your son's roadside coffee shop in your spare time, cooking a table of authentic local dishes carefully every day, playing with flowers or picking up tambourines for a while when you are free. ......................................................................

However, in the seemingly perfect middle-aged life, Lao Bai began to have his own distress and predicament. The life of the so-called three women, the middle-aged life of Lao Bai, which was originally uneventful, has also undergone earth-shaking changes because of the entry of three women.

First of all, Miss Li, as the object that Lao Bai likes, is beautiful and moving, which can make Lao Bai willingly become a caring and warm man. But she is more than just a vase. Even though she has reached middle age, she is still struggling in the workplace. She is a typical strong woman engaged in advertising.

Secondly, Gloria, a painting student of Laobai, said before that Laobai's painting classes are all for grandparents and old ladies, and this Gloria is different among the students of Laobai.

She is not only full of amorous feelings, but also a rich woman with money and leisure and her husband missing. She is not looking for an old white to learn painting, but taking her colleague's old white as a confidante and chatting with her about her love life while attending class.

Finally, Laobai's ex-wife Beibei has been divorced for many years. On the surface, she doesn't care about her ex-husband, but deep down, Beibei still regards Laobai as her own relative.

These three women can shoot several TV series by pulling one out at random, not to mention under the same roof. What a coincidence. It's a pity that the three women really hit each other by mistake and are still at Laobai's house. ...

Lao Bai, who tried his best to attack in turn, once again succeeded in making an appointment with his favorite object, Miss Li, to go home for dinner at night. Unfortunately, Gloria came to the old White House to look for a "tree hole" because she didn't come early or late.

The meeting between Gloria and Miss Li had already made Lao Bai feel bad, but a more dramatic scene happened immediately-his ex-wife Beibei happened to have something to see Lao Bai that night. Now, three women and Lao Wu, Lao Bai's good friend, come to join in the fun and turn the candlelight dinner carefully prepared by Lao Bai into an unexpected party with comedy color.

"Old white with me for decades, no one has ever paid attention to. Now they are separated, oh, they are all hot items. "

"Eat first, serve first, right?"

"I don't like to compete with people for food."

"rushing to eat."

Everyone's words have implications. In the lively atmosphere where you come and go, the simple dining table has become an invisible battlefield for women to give way to each other. The fusion of reality and drama, the collision between emotion and life, the difference between ideal and reality ... in strong contrast, the audience's hilarious degree is also completely full. Of course, this kind of angry words did not evolve into a bloody scene of fighting and jealousness. Embarrassment and opposition at first will sometimes disappear because of an unexpected joke, just as life always brings unexpected pain and surprise.

Lao Bai, surrounded by three women, seems to be the biggest winner at the beginning of the story, but is this really the case? Whether it's Miss Li, a strong woman who is single with children, Gloria, a rich woman who regards Lao Bai as a listener, or Beibei, Lao Bai's ex-wife, although they all love Lao Bai on the surface, in fact, middle-aged people see love better than anyone, and will never easily step into the romantic and fatal whirlpool of love.

After marriage, Laobai's ex-wife Beibei obviously has a husband who can cook and keep house, and a clever and sensible son. The three of them have established an enviable happy family life together. But in fact, Beibei, who was completely bound by the roles of "wife" and "mother", did not get the happiness she really wanted, and finally made the mistake of breaking up her marriage.

After many years, even though Laobai's mother has been looking forward to the remarriage of Laobai and Beibei, Beibei has long understood that Laobai is a good man, but he is not a suitable husband. This time, I showed strong hostility to Miss Li and Gloria at the dinner table, just because I didn't want to lose face in front of others.

Gloria, a well-informed rich woman, doesn't seem to have confided in Laobai. She is a confidante, but after understanding that Laobai's heart belongs, she also generously put it down. Romantic, passionate and transparent, she became friends with everyone at the end of the story.

The last thing I want to say is Miss Li, the object that Lao Bai likes. She is independent and strong, and she firmly believes in her life creed: "If you can't get the best, you are willing to take another road." Although it seems that she doesn't care about love on the surface, the first date with Lao Bai is just her emotional catharsis, but deep down, she still yearns for love. It is precisely because she has been tempered by reality that she learns to think rationally and will not easily choose an insecure love again. This is one of the reasons why Lao Bai has been very free and easy under her strong pursuit.

Every character in the film has a different understanding of the eternal emotional theme of love.

In Miss Li's view, love is like her high-heeled shoes with broken heels, which need to be sacrificed and paid by herself, and she is no longer young and ignorant. Even if she is tempted, she will carefully weigh whether it is worth the effort.

In Gloria's view, love is like a painting that can be bought with money. Don't worry about it, enjoying life is the first thing. In today's materialistic and drifting age, it is Lao Bai who gives her a deeper understanding of love.

In Beibei's view, love is like crucian carp soup carefully cooked by Laobai for her. At first it seemed a little lacking in passion, but looking back, things have changed. She chose passion and buried her marriage, but she never lost the opportunity to show her inner desire for passion.

In Lao Bai's view, love is like a prism, and everyone he touches is like a prism. People who are still sincerely yearning for love in middle age are so ordinary and simple. Therefore, it is not difficult to understand that seemingly free and easy, he will also show frustration after encountering emotional difficulties.

In Lao Wu's view, love can be desperate when it is young, or it can still be young when it is middle-aged. He explained what romance is with his seemingly long but short life, and finally let the disheartened old man understand that love is not an unattainable myth.

Love myth brings a romantic love story based on reality to the audience in front of the screen through completely different and detailed descriptions of the above three women. And through the mouth of the story characters, tell the audience that love has never been clearly defined, everyone's understanding and choice of love are different, and the love in those fairy tales is always very different from reality.

Of course, as a love movie, if it is a deconstruction of love reality without a trace of romance, then the movie is too inhuman. Therefore, the love myth is not only the emotional main line of Lao Bai, but also the emotional dark line of Lao Bai's friend Lao Wu. This hidden emotional line not only enriches the connotation of the film title "Love Myth" and pays tribute to federico fellini, but also becomes the key to the turning point of Lao Bai's emotional life, making the film plot finally return to the pursuit of emotional romance after describing the reality. As for what kind of story this hidden line tells, we have to wait until everyone walks into the theater to find out!

Another thing I have to mention is that, as a film set in Shanghai, Love Myth can be said to have assembled a strong cast, including Ma Yili, wuyue and Ni Hongjie, as well as Xu Zhuowang, who wanted to present a pure Shanghai flavor in his films many times before, and Zhou Yemang, who also has rich performance experience and graduated from Shanghai Theatre Academy. Under the affectionate interpretation of this group of actors who have special feelings for Shanghai, the film Love Myth is full of Shanghai's unique urban atmosphere and humanistic feelings.

What is the story of love? 2. The Love Story is directed by Shao, a post-90s director, starring Xu Zongheng, Ma Yili, wuyue, etc. It was released in May last year and was well received. Douban score is as high as 8.3. Some people even think that this is the top three movies in China this year.

Many netizens wrote in Weibo: Only people living in Shanghai can feel the beauty of the love myth. Old Shanghainese will smile at some details in the film, and they praise the works with the common mantra of "very clever".

Xu zhēng's depiction of Lao Bai reminds people of many Beijing "stubborn" roles played by Ge You. The film designs two love lines: one is the emotional entanglement between Lao Bai and Miss Li played by Ma Yili, Beibei played by wuyue and Gloria played by Ni Hongjie; The other is Lao Wu, played by Zhou Yemang, who constantly tells his love story in the film. When I was young, I met sophia loren, a famous Italian movie star, and two people with different identities fell in love. This past event gradually brought the audience's emotions into a state of ignorance in Lao Wu's emotional narrative: Is this product true or false?

Obviously, these two love lines correspond to reality and ideal. In reality, Lao Bai lives among three women and is bent on finding his middle-aged love. He loves Miss Li the most, and he doesn't dislike that Miss Li has a mixed-race daughter who is still in primary school. Miss Li does not rule out the occasional physical relationship with Lao Bai, but the advertising practitioners wearing high-heeled shoes of 10,000 yuan still retain the "poetry and distance" in love, and the "economically applicable man" Lao Bai is obviously a little less exciting. His ex-wife had an affair when she was young. Laobai had no choice but to forgive her and left. Although his ex-wife has the idea of getting back together, Laobai won't give her another chance. Gloria is hot and sexy, and she is very active with Laobai. It's a pity that Lao Bai doesn't feel anything. An oolong one-night stand after drinking made Lao Bai feel very annoyed and blamed himself. She even went to KTV to find Gloria to clarify her explanation, and the result was ridiculed by the young people present: What age is it, still can't open it?

Xu zhēng, who plays Lao Bai, said that Lao Bai looks a bit silly, indeed. He has a house to rent, so he has no financial pressure, so he will not be satisfied with his painting career. His friend Lao Wu helped him choose a place to hold an exhibition, and he didn't like any of them. It was not until finally that Miss Li and Gloria helped him choose the top gallery on the Bund, 18, that he was satisfied. Lao Bai will never make do with his feelings or life, which is the root of his tragedy.

In contrast, Lao Wu's love story is like a castle in the air, and anyone with a little sense knows its absurdity. But magically, when Lao Wu tells the details of his contact with sophia loren with a long lens, it becomes the most emotional part of the film. "My Rome collapsed after she left." But absurdly, Lao Wu died, but sophia loren was saved.

One is Lao Bai, who is struggling to pursue love in reality, and the other is Lao Wu, who lives in a love myth. Which is the truth of life? This is a big thought that the film brings to the audience.

At the end of the film, after watching Ferini's classic film Love Myth, Miss Li sent a blind date message to Laobai, which made people see the hope of this relationship, but there is no miracle in the adult world. According to the normal emotional logic, Miss Li is afraid that she will not take a fancy to Lao Bai. This bright tail was specially added by the leading actor Xu zhēng at the request of the director.

The greatest advantage of Love Myth is that it captures the true love psychology of these mature men and women living in the city, saying that it is a love movie from a female perspective and is tenable. With the development of society, people's thinking and attitude towards emotions are also changing, and love myths capture this change in time.

What is the title of the love myth? At first glance, it seems a bit tacky. Only after watching the movie did I know that the title of the film came from the classic work of the same name in Ferini, movie master. This movie looks very tall.

The whole movie has a sense of life, and a group of characters with strong Shanghai labels gag together. Female roles are vivid, while male roles are somewhat inferior. One-liners that amuse the poor, many lines are puns with subtext.

A netizen of Douban summed it up brilliantly: "The audience portrait in the movie should be based on Douban. A group of lonely middle-aged people living in old and shabby houses in big cities are talking about art. All they think about is making love, drinking cheap wine and blowing cows. Even street shoemakers are talking about Armstrong and philosophy. They like to laugh at themselves but refuse to criticize. They are occasionally exposed and want to fight back with a hammer. I dozed off while watching Ferini.

The love in the film is really not like a myth, but the entanglement between the hero Lao Bai and three women. It is nothing more than watching a movie, eating, helping the woman you like to take care of the children, repairing shoes and drawing sketches. ...

Three women, one is Mr. Bai's ex-wife, Beibei, who made mistakes that men all over the world will make; Miss Li, whom Mr. Bai wants to chase, has a high vision and dreams, but she has not mixed up. Reality has polished her mood, just like a divorced family. Mr. Bai's student Gloria has money and leisure, and her husband's whereabouts are unknown.

Because of Lao Bai, the three women were not very happy when they met for the first time, but everyone tacitly maintained their dignity. Soon, the ability and authenticity of Shanghai women made their friendship advance by leaps and bounds. The life of three women, taking turns to answer the words, and the scene of sharing weal and woe with men make people feel extremely comfortable.

The creation of three female characters has broken through the single rigid image of "middle-aged women" on the big screen, and made people see the possibilities of this group on the screen and in life.

On the surface, Xu zhēng is the hero, with three women around him. Deep down, three women are wild cats, and Xu zhēng is passing by to eat leftovers, but thinking about Lao Wu's love is most in line with myth. His ending is most in line with myth; Finally, everyone watched a movie to mourn him and ordered the myth again.

The film tells several kinds of love and a myth, but it ends in a subtle way: friends of men, women and children get together and decide to watch Ferini's love myth as a memorial to Lao Wu, but they all look listless and stagger-the myth is really ugly, love is not moving, and hand cream and snacks are not as good as aftertaste. Just as everyone is returning from the illusory image to the realistic midnight snack, Miss Li quietly sent a WeChat to Laobai, asking him to have coffee together another day. In WeChat, two people regard love as a movie and compare the movie to life. However, at the end of the film, the audience still stayed at the end of the song, staring at each other in amazement. Perhaps, this is love and this is life.
