Holding the coffee cup quietly, the bitter aroma slowly lingered, the warmth in his eyes quietly disappeared into the lazy mist, and finally turned into a satisfied smile at the corner of his mouth.

According to common sense, the article is over, there is a beginning and an end, the core ideas of the theme run through, and there is no need to increase or decrease. But after a moment of pause and serious thought, Michael put down the coffee cup, put his hands on the keyboard again, and decided to add a paragraph.

Even this may destroy the integrity of the article.

"In this work, the Coen brothers chose Lanly Hall to play Levine David. Undoubtedly, this is the perfect choice.

There is such a shot in the movie.

Levine quietly watched the performance on the stage. With the sound of the melodious melody, the corners of his mouth were involuntarily drawn into a shallow arc, and the focus of his pupils slowly faded. After taking off his guard, there was a trace of love and expression, which disappeared in a flash but was hot as fire; then, that expression slowly dissipated, revealing a touch of bitterness and sorrow, and in an instant, the heartache could not breathe. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

In a blink of an eye, the eyelids drooped, but all the emotions were concealed away.

It’s just such a short shot that clearly and delicately tells Levine’s inner secrets: three people performing on the stage, one is his friend, one is his friend’s wife, and the other just met last night. Folk singer. He admires his friends' wives, is jealous of folk singers, and despises his friends.

Those complex and profound emotions are all hidden in a glimpse of the lens.

The exquisite and rich, intricate and introverted way of performing, Hall gave Levine a vivid and real soul, the body of the eye wave shining on the entire big screen, all the weight of the whole movie fell on Huo On your shoulders, but he once again succeeded in handing in a perfect answer sheet.

More importantly, Hall has dedicated the most exciting and moving scenes of live performances in movies since the 21st century. The fusion of folk songs and characters, the integration of singing and stories, the interweaving of emotions and cores, everything is like this. Touching and affectionate, like a beautiful dream that makes people refuse to wake up. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

Although somewhat incredible, this is undoubtedly the best performance of Hall's personal career!

Although a little unimaginable, this is undoubtedly the best work of the Coen brothers' career!

At the beginning and end of the movie, a light, a chair, and a guitar are all on the stage. Levine hummed softly, "Hang me, oh, hang me, I will soon be The world. I don't care about hanging, but I don't want to be trapped in a grave forever. I have traveled all over the world. ’

Perhaps this is the most beautiful appearance of the movie. "

At the end of the drawing, Michael was so stunned that he always felt that there was still something to say in his mind, but after thinking about it, he finally chose to give up, and his thoughts were still deeply immersed in the "Drunk Country Folk Ballad". Among the movie screens, I can't extricate myself, and the stamina is too strong. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

After shaking my mind for a moment, I made up my own score:

Four stars.

The score system of the three major European film festivals is consistent, with a full four-star system. In other words, Michael's evaluation is full score.

Michael knew he was not rational enough.

He should remain relatively objective and give more neutral comments; but the fact is that the work of film critics and the feelings of watching movies are originally a subjective act. Like and dislike, praise and criticism, after all, they still come from the heart of every film critic. Likes.

What's more, such long-lost enthusiasm and impulse, this is the essence of the movie, isn't it?

After confirming the final score, Michael picked up the coffee cup, slowly began to enjoy it, and re-read the manuscript again, and completed the proofreading by himself. However, the melodious folk songs and the bitter coffee in his ears are really out of place, he It should be replaced by a bottle of beer. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

At the same time, Sean Levy, the film critic of "Empire" magazine, has just finished his manuscript and is proofreading it. He chose a bar to write the manuscript, with a bottle of beer on hand, but the noise in his ears was really annoying. Fortunately, today's manuscript was completed in one go.

"This is a long and grand farewell."

Next to the title, it was marked with Sean's rating, four stars.

This means that this is also a full score manuscript; and, this is also a manuscript from professional media.

“It’s always interesting to watch the works of the Coen brothers. The black humor hidden behind the camera is often a mockery and ridicule of society, life, and phenomena. Their lens trajectory, use of light and shadow, and editing can give the movie a unique look. This time, they succeeded again and contributed a moving and sad work.&1t;i>&1t;/i>

But this time, I think this is a movie that belongs to Lanly Hall.

The film tells a story in Greenwich Village in 1961, about a downturned folk singer. However, he is not Bob Dylan, but Dave Van Runck.

Who is Dave Van Runck?

correct. When this question arises in your mind, you don't have to doubt it, then it means that the understanding is correct, and the meaning conveyed by the Coen brothers has also reached the audience's mind accurately. Because Dave Van Langk is a little figure no one knows, just like the hero of the story, Levine Davis.

This is a story full of countless possibilities. It records Levine’s life in less than a week, running back and forth in Greenwich Village, amidst broken trivialities one after another. , Has consumed all the physical strength and energy, and finally returned to the original point. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

About folk songs, about life, about dreams, about art, about times, about success, about persistence, about choice... I believe that every audience can find their own answer in the story; but for me, This is a story about farewell, a long farewell.

Say goodbye to family. Say goodbye to love. Say goodbye to friendship.

Say goodbye to dreams. Also, bid farewell to folk songs.

The film tells the story of Levine trying to realize his dream of a folk singer in just one week, dashing left and right, making countless attempts, but ultimately ended in failure. The specific plot of the story is left for the audience to experience in the cinema; but hidden behind the story, it is more Levine's farewell to himself, and it is also Levine's reconciliation with himself.

He is trying to become an artist, an artist who tells stories with singing, impresses audiences with performances, and refines life with art. With his talents, he gains a foothold in this wave of folk songs and wins his own place. . &1t;i>&1t;/i>

For this unrealistic dream, he said goodbye to his family. He gave up his love and fumbled in the ice and snow. This is not an easy task. The only companion is the former partner; but, in the endless In the darkness of, the partner still failed to persevere after all, and cut off all connections by bidding farewell to the world, leaving him to wander alone.

He is persevering, his hard work, he is struggling.

But the winter in Greenwich never sees the end, like a beast trapped in a cage, rushing from left to right and banging his head and bleeding, but after all, he still couldn't find an exit, and stood blankly in place. Alone; even, he tried to give up and return to ordinary daily life, but real life still set up one threshold after another, causing him to fall completely bruised and at a loss what to do.

Under the lens of the Coen brothers, Lanly-Hall’s performance is like a melodious ballad or a moving poem, with gentle, tough, delicate and profound eyes that pass through the shackles of the big screen and project on everyone Around the audience, it seemed that a folk singer who lived in Greenwich Village in the 1960s, dressed in thin autumn clothes, walked through the streets and lanes of the cold winter. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

The song "Waving goodbye" appeared at the beginning, middle and end of the movie.

In the beginning, it was the performance of Levin and his partner; in the middle, it was the opening of Levin's inner wound; in the end, it was Levin's singing alone.

Maybe, he will choose to leave Greenwich Village, go to sea, become a qualified crew member, and never come back; maybe, he will continue to stay in the Gaslamp Cafe~www.novelhall.com~ for a while to board The stage became a legend here after a long time.

Perhaps, in the end, he will finally let go of himself and choose to say goodbye, farewell to family, farewell to love, and what's more, farewell to dreams and freedom, and farewell to folk songs.

Then, reconcile with yourself.

This is a long and grand farewell, and it seems that the end will never be seen. But this is life. All of them are hidden in Hall's invisible performance, which is so beautiful and intoxicating. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

As long as I close my eyes again, I will go back to the gaslight café, watching the downturned singer under the beam of light, he is singing loudly, "If I can spread my wings like Noah’s dove, I will go over Jiang He, chasing love. Wave goodbye, my love, may you cherish it. ’

In the final analysis, this is a story about life choices.

Once again, Lanly-Hall succeeded in making a breakthrough, dedicating the most brilliant performance of his career, the natural combination of gestures, and the script and the story outside the camera, even after Cohen The powerful control of the brothers has become the most well-deserved highlight of the whole movie.

After watching the movie, sitting quietly in the dark, those stamina and aftertaste began to surging in. All thinking about this movie, about this character, and about this life has just begun. Undoubtedly, this is the most exciting work since the beginning of 2013, and it is also the most exciting performance so far.

At the end of the movie, Levine sat down in a dim alley with embarrassment, his clear eyes slowly telling his story. He said, goodbye. "
