Chapter 1312

Coincidentally, Songya came home to watch something about God, starring Halley and directed by Spike Lee: something the miracle of the LORD made.

He, Halley and Mira were lying lazily on the red sofa in the viewing hall. A trailer was shown on the screen first, and some movie awards surrounded by wreaths were first seen. Then the logos of a + film studios and Bowe pictures appeared in turn.

The film editing and narration introduce the life and story conflict of the male archetype Vivian Thomas. Male No.1 Terence Howard, male No.2 Ellen Rickman and female No.2 Halle Berry appear frequently in the picture, because there are only three main characters in the film, and other people's parts are very few.

Finally, it shows the "miracle" created by modern surgery in 1944: BT heart shunt operation makes a white baby suffering from congenital coarctation of aorta disappear cyanosis symptoms and restore the original ruddy skin color. With the start date of the film beimi, the end of Thanksgiving in 1999.

Basically, the movie with an investment of 8 million yuan is much more exquisite than the original TV movie, and the money is spent on creating a more delicate style of the times. Now the three people are watching the version of Spike Lee's Film Festival, and the duration is also longer than that of the public version. Spike Lee is also a very good music player. Following the plots from the 1930s to the 1970s, he has a strong sense of the times The editing technique is more vigorous than that of the original film, and there is more pungent satire than that of the original film with reportage as the backbone.

The plot is very simple. The hero, Vivian Thomas, played by Terrence Howard, used to be a clever carpenter. He was very smart. After graduating from high school, he got the preparatory qualification of medical major in University. It was not easy for black people in 1929 to do this.

Unfortunately, with the economic crisis sweeping the world in 1933, Vivian Thomas's bank closed down. In 1930, he had to give up his studies and apply for a job as a white surgeon. The second male, Alan Rickman, plays Alfred Blalock's handyman.

BT shunt surgery is a combination of Blalock and another Taussig. Blalock Taussig, Vivian Thomas, who did not make a significant contribution, was not able to give such honor to the black people in the United States at that time. Normally, Jesse Owens, a black sprinter who won four gold medals in the German Olympic Games in 1936, still had to abide by it after returning to the United States with honor Apartheid policy, even can not find a job, had to run with cars, motorcycles, Marseilles, when a white fun clown.

Vivian Thomas was a man of honest, dull character, very "docile", and the prickly black people of that era didn't come to a good end.

For example, when talking with friends while walking, when they meet white people, they will quickly let them to the side of the road, take off their hats, wait for each other to go first, and then continue to drive their own way. When getting on the bus, he will sit in the area for black people, go to the washroom for black people, and have a public drink for black people When you drink water from a faucet, everything is as natural as breathing.

Vivian Thomas didn't show any special dissatisfaction and protest against other acts of apartheid and discrimination. That's what happened in the whole era, and that's what happened when he was born. As an ordinary man, he only cared about how to survive, and even didn't realize the unfairness at all.

Until he found out that what he did in the hospital was the work of the first assistant of the chief of surgery, but he got the lowest third class wage of the hospital. Until he found out that the Johns Hopkins Hospital did not allow black people to go to the front door. Until he found out that he had just completed a precision surgery for his boss. The boss accepted the praise of celebrities at the dinner party, while he could only carry dishes and do chores on one side ……

It was he who recovered cyanosis symptoms in the experimental dog. He invented and made surgical vascular forceps, a special instrument for cardiac surgery. His hands were more stable and dexterous than the white boss, and he was more familiar with the operation. When the boss first used the operation on a human, a baby more than ten months old, he insisted that he remind him at the operating table We need to make up for the missing.

However, as a "model black man" in the eyes of white people, his biggest protest behavior was nothing more than complaining to his boss or threatening to resign. But in the end, he was still willing to give up his life because of his great love for medical research and life-saving.

Alan Rickman's second man was already a relatively friendly employer to black people at that time. He would help black people's assistants fight for some economic and status treatment, but at the same time, the arrogance and weakness of intellectuals were also obvious. After BT shunt operation was successful, he didn't give Vivian Thomas due honor under social pressure, and even didn't mention it in his award speech, In this way, he remained silent until his death on the eve of the lifting of apartheid.

So Spike Lee has entrusted his style of talking and his sense of equal rights to Halley, the heroine. She is responsible for many parts of her lines, her anger at inequality, her vigilance and so on.

This is also the biggest difference from the original film, but unfortunately, the miracle is a double male main drag acting, brilliant play, Harley as Vivian Thomas wife role basically does not participate in promoting the plot.

"Alas."

Finally, it was not until 1976 that Johns Hopkins acknowledged the contribution of Vivian Thomas in BT shunt surgery, gave him the honorary doctorate he deserved, and hung his portrait next to his boss who had died for more than ten years.It's still here. At the end of the plot, there are portraits of the prototypes of the two leading actors.

Song Ya sighed after watching it. What else can he say? Don't you think the white people have corrected their mistakes and redeemed themselves? How rare! Why don't you express your gratitude to these moral models?

"Next year's U.S. awards season, there will be no Oscars, there will always be other small awards, right?"

Maybe it's because there are too many films of this kind. On the contrary, Haley is more apathetic than him. She can't wait to ask immediately after the closing subtitle appears.

"Don't worry, you'll get a soft hand."

Song Ya is very confident about the small award like the Soul Train Music Award. Is the layout of this film going to start at the end of the year for the award?

Harry's acting

He turned and looked at her, who was leaning her head on her shoulder. It was very good. Harvey could put Gwyneth Paltrow on the Oscar throne, and he could Certainly in the future, but not for the time being. At least it can't be done by miracles.

Harvey is complacent, arrogant repeated character also can't all hope on him, although the current relationship with himself is good, get a hint after no longer harassing Charlize.

Harvey should learn the way of charging awards as soon as possible. In fact, he has learned some before, such as sending small gifts to Grammy judges through Amelia music magazine, but it is far from enough.

Hally is also in her early 30s. It's a bit time to wait. Next year's cold mountain is bound to have a crazy impact on the awards season. Nicole Kidman and Jennifer Connery will be short of the Oscars.

He thought, gently rolling a woman's short hair.

"Puyi..." Hally suddenly began to laugh. It turned out that Mila on the other side had fallen asleep.
