Chris Fairbank's film review is a rare super long review. He conducted a comprehensive analysis of "Juno" and expressed his views on Evan Bell's film. But as Chris Fair Punk himself said, every audience will have a different point of view after appreciating Aihu Bell's works. This is the charm of Aihu Bell's films. There are good and bad reviews of "Juno", and even among the same compliments, there are a lot of comments that Chris-Fair Punk's interpretation is not the same.
For example, Elliott Slaughter's "Premier." After experiencing the suffocation of "Batman Prequel. The Dark Knight", this "Premier" finally seized the opportunity and slammed "Juno" .
"When his talent was exhausted, Evan-Bell finally showed his fatigue. Mean, plain, naive, boring... These are all my thoughts on Juno, except for the gags on the Internet. "Juneo, apparently nothing," was less humorous than 'Big Belly' was less profound than 'Two Three Days in April' than light, and the waitress was less than dark than 'Vera-Drake'. "Perhaps, the only thing that can win is getting younger, but who knows how such a work that pleases young people can perform at the box office?
Throughout Juno's film, feminism is ubiquitous throughout, as Juno, Vanessa and Brenda can save the world, while Mike, Mark, and Brick can only play childishly with music, Never grow up, especially after Vanessa and Mark divorced, Juno still chose to give the child to Vanessa, and even more let the theme of the whole world for the child without a father and only a mother is pushed to The peak, and the three mothers actually got a baby boy after countless sacrifices, which is even more ironic.
In addition, Evan's ambiguity of serious issues such as teenage pregnancy and abortion shows his cowardice, and he doesn't even dare to confront these issues head-on, so he can only create one. In a beautiful world, it seems that all serious and heavy problems are insignificant in the story. Social pressure, school exclusion, and difficulties in life are not problems, because only you need to be positive and you can solve problems. From here, we can see that Evan is still young and he still holds unrealistic dreams.
It is conceivable that when young people see the beautiful world of 'Juno', the issue of teenage pregnancy is bound to face greater pressure. Countless minors will think that pregnancy is nothing more than that simple. It was a disaster.
Such a mediocre work also marks Evan's official decline in the director's position, which is dragging people's wrists. "
Elliott-Carter's comments were almost face-to-face with Chris-Fairpunk. The two people's words pointed to each other. As for the audience's senses, they were at ease. However, judging from the current media comments in Venice, "Premier" is difficult to say alone, and Elliott Carter is once again facing the dilemma of being alone.
The praise position of "Sight and Hearing" is the same as that of "Film Critic", but there are some differences in the analysis of Chris Fair Punk, which is also a consistent phenomenon of Evan Bell's works. Every professional media interprets it differently.
"'Juno's uniqueness is that Evan presents a topic that is generally reluctant to devise by American directors in a light-hearted, almost playful way. Underage pregnancy and abortion. In the United States such a ding , this is obviously an embarrassing and outdated topic in a country that advertises humanitarianism. The film just resolves the heaviness and darkness of this topic, and shifts the audience's focus to the thinking of true love and family, responsibility and growth.
It can be seen from this that Evan's excellent control ability and outstanding digging ability in the director position. The fresh and moving guitar strings are humming softly, just like the autumn at the beginning of the movie, and the years of youth flow quietly like running water. Obviously, this is not the self-perceived world of teenagers, but adults' reminiscence of their youth and their awakening to their own growth. Therefore, Juno, the heroine of the movie, shows maturity beyond her age, with a calmness and calmness, and even a touch of sadness that is no longer in the past, which is mainly reflected in the nostalgic and rhythmic soundtrack of the movie superior. Of course, that doesn't stop the film's peculiar humour, which comes not only from adults' nostalgia for youth, but also from the rambunctious side-by-side approach, colorful sets, witty and rich A dialogue of the times. Presenting a feast of pleasing and funny movies for the audience.
The success of the film largely comes from the setting of the plot and the outline of the characters. Imagine if Juno decided to have a baby, then worked things out with Brick, and the two ended up living happily together, then the movie would have lost this unique and deeply terrifying moral dig and could only be reduced to For a mediocre and mediocre work, like the hamburger and fries that appear on the Hollywood assembly line countless times every year, it is boring.
Juno chose Vanessa and Mark instead of raising the child alone. It was Evan who idealized the film while preserving the social reality, as a sixteen-year-old girl decides to raise the child. And with a loved one, it's a Cinderella story, not Juno. Fostering children to Vanessa and Mark is Evan's tolerant interpretation of teenage pregnancy. It is not only Juno's yearning for a beautiful family, but also a wake-up call to people's self-awareness! People should have dreams and should learn to challenge but not blindly challenge.
The existence of the couple Vanessa and Mark is not only the meaning of foster family, but also a scabby for the Juno family. When the divorce rate is getting higher and higher, the entire American society and even the whole world are facing single-parent families. The question of how to prevent the growth of children from being affected in single-parent families has become the biggest social issue. Evan gives the answer he agrees with through Mike and Brenda's marriage. Marriage may not be long-term, but the love of parents for their children will always exist, and the most important thing is that divorce is not the core issue, but the parents themselves.
In addition, in the four people of Vanessa, Mark, Juno and Brick, Evan also revealed more deep meanings. The women represented by Vanessa and Juno indicate that in this society that advocates equality between men and women, women can actually take the initiative. They are no longer men's vassals and can even go beyond men to be the masters of their own homes. Since women are the main body of life, this is also doomed. The mother's sense of responsibility and the greatness of maternal love make women strong, which is the fundamental reason why women are more mature than men.
The men represented by Mark and Brick can actually be regarded as the incarnation of Evan. They have been persistently pursuing their dreams. Brick is dreaming, and Evan outside the play has achieved his dream, while in the play. The Mark then did not fail. As we all know, Evan has always been a firm dream pursuer. Even in the face of countless difficulties, he has not given up his dedication to his dreams, but life is not like this, not everyone can achieve their dreams. What should you do when your dreams cannot be realized and the pressures of life strike? Evan refracts his thoughts through Mark and Brick.
Brick is still growing up. He needs constant wrestling to exercise himself. Whether his dream can be realized is not only achieved by perseverance, but also requires hard work and perseverance. And Mark chose to give up, he chose marriage under the oppression of life, but when the real responsibility of marriage came to complete a family one by one, Mark fled away, so he began to complain that his wife created a lock on his dream, he chose Hit the road again, to pursue your so-called dreams.
But from Evan's lens, it can be seen that after leaving Vanessa's Mark, he will only sink into old rock and blood horror movies, and then seduce a few young girls who can be moved by this, and write down the pen that dissipates in Interesting things in the wind, just get old. Obviously, Evan disagreed with Mark's attitude.
In 'Juno,' Evan expresses his thoughts on dreams through Brick and Mark. Chasing, perseverance, hard work and perseverance are the necessary conditions for realizing the dream. Either choose to go all the way to the end, or once you choose life, then please finally live your own life, don't blame life for depriving you of your dreams, don't put the blame on your wife, because this is your choice.
In fact, throughout the whole film, Evan insists on such a point of view that what is scary is not the choice, but the persistence after the choice. Everyone in the movie made a choice, Juno Zun dared to take responsibility and she found her own happiness; Mark chose, but regretted it, and shied the responsibility, so he left and was rejected outside of Vanessa's life
Compared with feminism, what Evan wants to express through, Juno, is more a question of choice. The choice of abortion, the choice of dream, the choice of life. There are no answers to these questions, the only answer lies in each person's choice. In our hearts, all we need to do is to make a choice and stick to it.
So, imagine the story of "Juno, if it weren't like this, but Juno and Brick gave birth to a child together and raised them with the help of their family, such a typical Hollywood endingThen It is bound to be mediocre, but Evan did not. He unswervingly used such a maverick story to convey a deeper meaning to us.
The film revolves around the incident of Juno's pregnancy, and deeply discusses the issues of people's treatment of life, emotions and the relationship between people, including people's choices about themselves and their own life, and of course, the interaction between people and society. The question of function, it is these excavations that originate from and are closely linked to society, make Juno's pregnancy a sobering story rather than an irreversible disaster.
Perhaps, growth requires a price. Teenagers become mature with too much helplessness and compromise. Some things are left in the past forever, but people keep moving forward. After all, there is even hope. So don't complain about your past choices, but make good choices now and look to the near future. This is the most important thing.
Of course, in addition to this, the music throughout the film is full of youth and vitality, relaxed and playful, including brightly colored side faces and lovely and moving comics, all of which reveal the beauty of youth. This makes us start to reminisce about our youth and recall the stumbling blocks on our own growth path. If it weren't for Evan Bell, I can't imagine what kind of story this would be. This is his charm.
"If it weren't for Evan Bell..." This film review from "Sight and Sound" once again sent a piece of praise.
