and Kim Carrey is different. In the movie "Film Life", his performance is deep and emotional, giving people a warm and powerful feeling. Jim Carrey originally wanted to use this movie to hit the Oscars, but unfortunately it did not happen, but this movie still has many remarkable parts. Many of the warmth in the movie, even after watching it a few times, make people cry.
"Movie Life"
movie tells about in the 1950s, a Hollywood film screenwriter named Peter was trying to expand his ambitions, to the peak of his life, but suddenly he fell into the lowest point of life. Not only did his studio reject his commercial contract, but even her wife dared not say a word to him anymore. He became a real lonely family. Why did he fall into such a predicament?
Peter was misunderstood
It turns out that all this is because of the prevailing "McCarthyism".
Peter was misunderstood
Peter was suspected of "community" because college students joined a society with a strange name. This was a serious crime in the United States at the time, and all his miserable experiences also stemmed from this unwarranted crime. The people around him persuaded him to confess the crime happily and "identify" several other people according to the list provided by "they", but Peter didn't want to ruin his life just like that, so he was depressed and could only sorrow by drinking. Everyone knows the truth of "drinking but not driving, driving but not drinking", so Peter was in a car accident when he drank and went for a drive. Not only did he fall off the bridge, he also hit the bridge pier and hit his brain. People in the town of
all said this:
waited the next day he came over clearly, he found that he had amnesia, and then an old man found him and took him back to a seemingly deserted town.
Everyone thinks that they are familiar with Peter and are familiar with
. What makes Peter strange is that when everyone sees him, they will say that they have a feeling of acquaintance with him. Later, the old man told him that many young people in the town had died in World War II. Many old people have lost their children, and the old people are so afraid to think of these pains that even the monument presented by the president is put in the basement for ashes.
The old man Harry mistakenly identified Peter as Luke
But soon there was an old man Harry said that Peter was his son Luke who had been missing for many years (because of participating in World War II). Peter lost his memory and it was difficult to refute, he could only follow the old man. Back home. After that, Peter really lived in the small town like an elderly son, but he needed to "know" everyone again. The scene of acknowledging people is actually very embarrassing, but everyone is unwilling to expose the truth, because Peter's arrival does bring some hope to the town, and the town is full of laughter and laughter because Peter has begun to come back to life.
"Movie Life" movie theater
Not only did Harry's cinema, which had been closed for many years, reopened, but the old people also had the courage to face the wounds of the war. The town mayor said that they saw Peter as if they saw their son. But the good times didn't last long. Peter finally remembered who he was because he saw his screenwriter in the cinema. He began to fall into a dilemma. At this moment, the old man Harry fainted due to a sudden heart infarction. When the old man was dying, Peter wanted to tell the truth, but in the end he resisted not saying it because he wanted the old man to leave without regret.
before the death of the old man
After the old man's funeral, the government still came to his door, and he still has to face the government's accusations.
People from the government came to the door.
In court, Peter was made difficult, and even his experience of straying into the town was regarded as evidence of his escape from crime. Peter became more and more difficult to cleanse his suspicion, so his lawyer also I was persuading him to confess his guilt quickly, otherwise he would inevitably make things difficult.
Peter was deliberately made things difficult in court
Peter thought and chose not to plead guilty. He quoted a content in the US Constitution to prove that even if he "communists", this should not be a crime, because the US Constitution guarantees that every The freedom of belief of a citizen. He kept emphasizing this point and said that those soldiers who died in World War II would not want to see the United States become a country without freedom of belief. In the end, there was warm applause from the crowd, because Peter's behavior was very "American" and was surging Under the popular opinion, the judge did not convict Peter in the end.
After Peter regained his freedom, he chose to return to the town to continue living, even though he was not the soldier Luke who died in World War II. Generally speaking, this movie can be regarded as an American "main theme" movie, which promotes American values. But we don't actually have to reject this movie for this reason. After all, ideology itself is a very narrow and outdated thing. Humans shouldn't attack each other, and ideology does not have the power to fix everything.
Never believe that something can definitely bring happiness. Only people's yearning for happiness and pure effort for it are the most fundamental motivation and fundamental way to a happy life. All conspiracies and tricks inevitably complicate things, and it is the deviation of the human heart that makes happiness unreachable.
