On the big screen, in the walk-and-talk camera, Frank and Devine are walking on the beach, facing the endless blue sea.
Frank said: "I don't know if I believe in God, but I admire the sea. She is always waiting for you there. She is farther and wider than you, and she has no prejudice at all. So, this is my view of God."
"Frank" Devine hesitated for a moment before saying, "What does it feel like when you cut your wrists?"
Frank took a breath and exhaled, "It's very peaceful, like watching yourself fly away from this world. At that time, you can see the beauty of this world again."
Devine nodded silently.
The camera cut back to the hotel lobby, where an evening wear show was going on. The little girls were wearing mature evening gowns, and the little adults were standing on the stage from tallest to shortest. Oliver was still the last one on the right. The host sang comically around them, seeming to amuse and embarrass them, but the little girls remained motionless and kept their fake smiles, except for Olive, who looked slightly uneasy.
The audience burst into laughter, but Richard¡¯s expression became more and more different, because the atmosphere of the game was weird? Is Oliver obviously not as good as the others? A little bit of both.
As DeWine¡¯s voice-over sounded, it cut back to the beach. "Sometimes I really wish I could sleep until I was 18skip all the troubles, middle school and everything. Just skip it." The two were still walking on the beach and approached a wooden bridge pier surrounded by yachts. Waiting for the ship.
¡°Have you ever heard of Marcel Proust?¡± Frank asked.
"Is he the person you want to talk about in class?"
"Yes." Frank nodded, looking at the sea with a deep look, "French writer, a complete loser. He has never had a formal job, has unrequited love, and is gay. He spent 20 years writing a book that almost didn't work. People read books. But he may be the greatest writer since Shakespeare."
In the two-person shot, he looked at DeWine, "In short, when he reached the end of his life, he looked back and found that those painful years were the best years of his life. Because those experiences made him who he was, those experiences Things forced him to think and grow, and he realized that those happy years were completely wasted and gained nothing."
Devine smiled faintly, looking thoughtful.
"So, if you sleep until you are 18" Frank smiled, mocking himself and ridiculing: "Think of all the painful experiences you may miss. Middle school is your first painful experience, and there is nothing better than this. It¡¯s a painful experience. Unless you go into academia, but that¡¯s a whole different story.¡±
The two looked at each other, shook their heads and smiled, and stopped at the railing of the wooden bridge.
Devine looked at the sea and paused for a few seconds. "You know what?" Frank looked at him. Devine said seriously: "Damn beauty pageant! Life is just one beauty pageant after another. Going to school, College, then work, screw it! Air Force Academy?¡±
He looked at the sky, "As long as I want to fly, there must be a way to fly. I mean, just do what you love most, and go to hell with everything else."
Frank grinned, "I'm glad you're talking again. You're not as stupid as you look." Devine smiled.
"Want to go back?" Frank asked.
"I don't really want towell, let's go back."
Another thought-provoking conversation, another natural topic!
Film critics couldn¡¯t help but nod approvingly: Proust, pain creates greatness, life is one beauty contest after another, as long as you want to fly, you can fly!
Most young people can¡¯t understand everything, but they have a lot of feelings about "middle school is your first painful experience", and adult viewers who can look back on the past have even greater feelings.
Middle school. The innocence of elementary school begins to fade away, people become weird, and they themselves become weird. Suddenly, everything seems to be different. New circles, comparisons, coolness or stupidity, parental expectations, study pressure, hormones, new love the world has become Complex, life becomes painful.
All members of the Dream Chaser Alliance, no matter what their family background, everyone has their own pain.
Utah, Moody suddenly burst into tears. As long as you want to fly, you can fly, right?
Many movie fans have noticed that DeWine¡¯s mouth shape is a bit wrong. Those ¡°screw-it¡± are obviously ¡°fuck-it¡±. How can screw be compared to fuck? But this is the PG-13 released version. I will buy the DVD and watch the unrated director's cut again in the future. It will definitely look better.
The screen cuts back to the competition scene. It is already the talent show session, and a group of shots cuts quickly.?A little girl dressed as a cowgirl sang a song, causing the audience to applaud; then a little blonde girl walked playfully on the stage while twirling the parasol in her hand.
"Hoo ho!!" The atmosphere in the auditorium became more and more enthusiastic, and the audience began to applaud and cheer rhythmically, and Richard looked more and more stunned.
Then another little girl came on the scene. She was dressed in cute and cute sportswear. She somersaulted out of the aisle and performed a series of incredible gymnastics moves. When she completed a backstand and then stood up, the audience stood up and applauded wildly. , only Richard is still sitting, his face has fallen, there is no way Oliver can win.
The atmosphere in the screening room outside the screen is also heating up, but the audience also feels it. How can Oliver win?
"Wow! She is so powerful!" Duoduo exclaimed, "Nina, she is as powerful as you!"
"Oh my god, that's me" Nina was already stunned, her face turned red, "That's me. Yunik, you are so bad." Ye Wei's words sounded from the side: "No, I I swear it's none of your business. If the script is written this way, I will shoot it as well. Of course I can change the script, but I don't, haha" Nina punched him.
On the screen, Frank and DeWine pushed open the door of the auditorium and entered. Then within a few seconds, the door opened again. They walked out as if they were popping out. They looked at each other and DeWine said, "I'm going backstage" and turned around to leave. Frank leaned against the wall to regain his composure before saying, "Okay, bye."
There was a chuckle in the Chinese Theater, and the audience then saw that Richard and Devine had the same idea, and asked Oliver to withdraw from the game.
No matter why, they didn¡¯t want her to stay here any longer. The two of them went backstage to persuade Cheryl.
"She's not cut out for this game, Cheryl, she's not going to win, there's no way around it! I don't want her to lose, I know what that feels like. It feels bad and I don't want it to happen to Olive ." Richard confessed his feelings. Although he still cared about winning or losing, he started from his daughter's feelings.
"Look around, this place is too bad, I don't want these people to judge Oliver." Devine said this, Richard's approval made him a little confused, and continued to persuade: "You are a mother, you should protect her, Everyone will make fun of her, please don¡¯t embarrass her! She¡¯s not a beauty queen, she really isn¡¯t.¡±
Devine¡¯s words gradually turned into voiceover, and Oliver, who was sitting at the dressing table not far away, seemed to hear it. He had no expression, as if he was a little unhappy.
The camera cut back, Cheryl's eyes were filled with tears, but she did not agree: "Oliver is who she is. This is her own choice to do this She works so hard and devotes herself to this competition We can't take away her efforts. . We can't. I know you want to protect her, but let's let Oliver be Oliver for good or bad"
3116 theaters are quiet at this time, and the film critics screening is also quiet. What will happen next?
The audience felt quite unhappy. Oliver might not be able to win, or even be laughed at, but let Oliver be himself!
"Let her go." Mihaela murmured in her heart. Cheryl was right, let her go.
At this time, on the screen, the female assistant was hurriedly taking Oliver to the stage, "It's almost time."
"Oliver looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a loose and old-fashioned black suit and a red hat, looking a little weird and rustic.
Cheryl came over and said, "Honey look at me, you don't have to perform if you don't want to. If you just sit back and let the game go, that's fine too. No matter what, we're still proud of you, Okay?"
Under the attention of the family, Oliver said nothing, stood up and followed the female assistant to leave. Richard and Devine stopped trying to dissuade them. They both said "Come on" gently, and Cheryl smiled and said, "Good luck, baby." In the panoramic shot, Oliver kept walking, leaving Next back view.
come on! ! The audience's spirits were lifted, people of all ages were looking forward to it, all the screening halls became warm and tense, and the air seemed to freeze!
What will happen to Oliver¡¯s performance? Will it be a shocking reversal? bring it on!
Amidst the applause, the camera cut back to the auditorium, where another little blond girl was bowing in thanks after her performance, which was very sweet.
Richard led Cheryl, Devine and Frank to sit down, and the family sat in a row next to the rough man.
"That's great, thank you, little Ms. Karis Whiteman! Thank you, well, you are the most patient audience tonight! Hahaha!"
Behind the curtain of the stage, Oliver and the female assistant were preparing to appear. She was a little nervous listening to the host's words, but gradually calmed down.
With everything on camera, the host laughed a few times and said: "We have one more contestant, and then we will choose the winner. Now let us welcome her, Oliver Hoover!"
There was applause at the competition site, and a small round of applause also broke out in the Chinese Theater. Everyone from the Dream Chaser League spread to the entire venue, and the applause started thundering! First some children shouted "Oliver!", and then the teenagers also shouted "Oliver, Oliver, Oliver!" The applause was even louder at the same time!
There were also applause in 3116 theaters, and the film critics screening was no exception.
It was as if the audience had penetrated the screen and was at the scene of the "Little Miss Sunshine" beauty pageant, sitting around the Hoover home.
I saw Oliver on stage! She walked out of the star gate behind the curtain, taking the most ordinary steps. The whole place was silent, and she suddenly waved to the host. The host approached her, leaned over and lowered the microphone so she could speak.
¡°I want to dedicate this dance to my grandpa, he taught me these things.¡± Oliver said, his little face without glasses was full of sincerity.
"Oh, so sweet!" The host's tone was a little exaggerated, but the audience really felt so warm, just like Richard and others as the camera swept over them, tender and a little bit sighing. Is Grandpa watching from heaven? What would he say?
"Is he here? Where is your grandpa now?" the host's voiceover asked, and the camera scanned the audience and judges, who were all laughing.
"He's in the trunk of our car." Oliver answered innocently. The host was stunned for a moment, and when the camera panned to everyone, they all had strange expressions.
Ha ha! But the audience outside the screen all laughed. There seemed to be endless black humor in this incident.
The host stepped back to the right and handed the stage to Olive. She turned around, facing away from the audience, holding her shoulders with both hands, ready.
At this moment, at the premiere of the Chinese Theater, from the front row to the last row, 932 audiences of all different groups looked at the stage.
At this moment, the film critics screening, Albert, Rope, Pugh, Dargis and all the film critics here and there, looked at the stage.
At this moment, the film is being released in 3,116 North American theaters, no matter Los Angeles, New York, Toronto No matter where, countless audiences of all ages and ethnicities are looking at the stage.
Faces were full of anticipation, hearts were lifted, and the audience stared slightly and held their breath.
"Ding ding ding ding ding!" Suddenly, the music started! What's going on with this intro, disco? Rock? Countless spectators have opened their mouths and their faces are stunned. Some older audiences can hear it, some music fans can hear it, it's funk.
Rick James' "super-freak"!
The situation seems to be completely different from what I expected.
On the stage, Olive spread her hands in rhythm with the music, twisting her shoulders and buttocks, but a smile began to appear on her innocent face, which was very natural and enjoyable. She also began to show confidence and pay tribute to her grandfather. .
¡°She¡¯s a very weird girl, the kind you wouldn¡¯t bring home to meet your mother.
She'll never let your spirits down once she takes you out shopping, oh girl. "
A strange and obscene song sounded. Oliver slapped his hands on his hips, swaying his shoulders, turned around, and strode confidently to the front of the stage.
Richard, Cheryl, Frank and Devine were all stunned, with different expressions, but they were all stunned.
The surrounding audience were all stunned.
The seventh loser, Oliver.
"Hahaha!!" Outside the screen, the audience roared with laughter, threatening to lift the roof of every theater showing LMS and soar into the sky!
Not everyone understood the situation, but everyone was laughing. They were completely surprised and didn¡¯t know what to say! Parents don¡¯t know how to give guidance, God!
¡°She liked the boys in the band and she said I was her favorite
¡°When I come to her room, it¡¯s the right time, she¡¯s never hard to please.¡±
The audience and judges on the screen were all dumbfounded. Oliver danced wildly, a crazy dance that had never been seen on this stage, a fusion of twerking, swinging, and some self-created moves. Suddenly this And there's also a striptease!
¡°That girl is pretty wild now, that girl is a super freak
The kind you read in new wave magazines
That girl is quite weird
I really love to taste her
(Whenever we meet)
She¡¯s fine!
She¡¯s fine!
The girl is with me and everything is fine, yeah hey, hey, hey, hey! "
As he sang, Oliver first took off his hat and threw it to the right side of the stage, with his long hair flowing. Then he tore off his black trousers and threw them to the judges' seat on the left side of the stage, revealing a pair of sequined pants underneath. The golden shorts were like a ray of sunshine, and her movements became more obscene, but she was dancing so well, so happy, and her smile was bright.
At the same time, as the camera switched, Ms. Jenkins, Miss California and other judges went from shock to helplessness, disgust, and no longer wanting to watch.
¡°She¡¯s a super freak, super freak, everyone says, super freak!¡±
The laughter in the screening room continued, the decibels continued to rise, and the cheers also sounded. The girl burst into laughter and couldn't stop, genius! What a genius!
How did you come up with this and how did you film it?
This is great!
But the audience on the screen began to leave the stage. The contestants and parents, some of the children shouted towards the stage: "You suck!", "Too bad!" and there were boos.
Olive on the stage moved slowly, a little confused, obviously not understanding these noises, because she danced very well!
"These little bastards" The camera cut back to the audience, and Frank whispered: "I'm going to kill them." He suddenly stood up and clapped his hands to the beat, followed by Devine, Cheryl, and Richard. One after another, they stood up and clapped their hands to express their support for Oliver.
"Haha!" The atmosphere of the Chinese Theater was already feverish. Audiences everywhere clapped their hands and stood up. Then, one by one, all the audience laughed and stood up to beat the beat!
"Enough, enough, enough, enough!" Gia shouted excitedly, Nina twisted her shoulders slightly, Duoduo was jumping up and down without knowing why, AnnaSophia raised her hands in the air, and Lily was all smiles!
"This is already my favorite movie!" Emma gestured with her hands, "My favorite!!!"
The atmosphere in each screening room also reached a boiling point. It was not unusual for people to laugh, and many of the audience clapped their hands. Seeing Oliver tear open his suit and throw it away, revealing the black vest underneath, he jumped even more happily, and the screening The hall suddenly boiled!
Grandpa is right, Oliver beats all the others!
The film critics¡¯ screening was even more ebullient, filled with crazy joy. It¡¯s great, incredible! It¡¯s a blessing in life to be able to watch such a classic! !
??Oliver won, suffered a narrow loss, suffered a miserable defeatit was not shocking at all, but now, it is natural now! She won, she lost again.
The art of destruction!
Sometimes, only destruction can give you this kind of feeling, this kind of shock!
Because this world is imperfect and full of disillusionment. Human beings hate disillusionment, but they cannot live without disillusionment. When this huge disillusionment appears unexpectedly in a comedic way
It¡¯s so damn awesome!
Roger Ebert clapped his hands and stood up, as did all the film critics in the audience. These applauses are for Oliver and "Little Miss Sunshine"!
"She's okay! She's okay! The girl is with me and everything is fine, yeah"
On the screen, Oliver is still dancing selflessly on the stage. The camera is clear. Ms. Jenkins walks towards Richard and others and asks angrily: "What is your daughter doing?" Richard looks at the camera, and Oliver shoots again. Getting up, he said, "She's kicking-ass, that's what she does."
The audience outside the screen were laughing and excited!
??Oliver danced more and more wildly and became more and more happy. From a little girl's point of view, there is nothing obscene or obscene in a child's mind. It is the pollution of the world by adults.
But more people left the stage. Ms. Jenkins came to the right side of the stage and angrily shouted to the host: "Come here, come here! Get that dirty little devil off the stage! Take her away! Go right now!" The host walked onto the stage to capture Oliver, "Baby, your performance is over, let's go."
But Oliver was so selfless that he ignored it and continued to run and jump on the stage.
"Don't touch her! Let my daughter go!" Richard, who was watching over there, was furious. He rushed over and jumped onto the stage. He struggled with the host, pushed him back to the right side of the stage, and threw him to the ground. . The three people in the audience were stunned. Frank and Devine hurried to the front.
The audience continued to be completely surprised and couldn¡¯t stop laughing. What was going on and what would happen next! ?
The scene was chaotic. Two security guards restrained Richard. Oliver on the other side stopped in surprise. Richard struggled and shouted, "Keep dancing, honey, it's okay."No, dad is fine, just jump! "Oliver danced again in confusion, and his dance steps were still so smooth.
"Take your daughter off the stage now!" Ms. Jenkins was shaking with rage, furious, pointing at something to Richard, "Make her stop! Make her stop! Now, take her off, now !¡±
Seeing her so angry made the audience happy! The evil smile is so refreshing!
Richard seemed to nodded slightly, turned around and walked onto the stage, stood behind the dancing Oliver, and said, "Dear"
The laughter in the screening room suddenly died down. Although it was going to end like this, the audience was already satisfied. Oliver, your performance was great.
Suddenly something shocking happened again! ! !
¡°She¡¯s a super freak, super freak¡±
Richard jumped up, jumping in sync with Oliver! They twisted their hips together, swayed their bodies together, and danced the same weird dance! Richard looked at Ms. Jenkins with an expression that was both provocative and contemptuous. Ms. Jenkins on the side of the stage was shocked and angry and vomited blood. Other staff members also looked blank, and only the female assistant smiled.
"ae!!!" Everywhere where LMS was shown, the audience laughed again and made a sensation again!
Richard, you didn¡¯t bow your head this time! He did what the coolest father in the world does, and he also did what the most ordinary father in the world does: support his daughter and jump!
The Chinese Theater seemed to be going crazy. Lamo looked around and saw clearly a series of crazy heat waves. She laughed and said, "Old man, you are donereally done"
This movie is a nuclear bomb!
On the big screen, Frank walked up from the right side of the stage and jumped away in a very basic and cool move; then came DeWine, who jumped up from the left side of the stage with a smile, and looked at Ms. Jenkins and the audience. His hips suddenly jumped, and Oliver, surrounded by them, jumped with joy.
Cheryl laughed heartily in the audience. In the cold eyes of the audience, she first walked and then ran and jumped onto the stage from the front. She also jumped up and the whole family danced together!
Loser Frank, Loser Richard, Loser Cheryl, Loser DeWine, Loser Oliver
And Grandpa Loser! Grandpa is right next to him. Isn¡¯t he singing this song? !
¡°She¡¯s a super freak, super freak, that girl is a super freak¡±
Six losers, one family.
From the beginning to the present, all the failures, all the injustices, everything, all exploded at this moment!
What success and failure, what worldly concepts, what laws of strength and weakness, what height, shortness, fatness, divorce, bankruptcy, life and death, big and small people, heaven and hell, beauty pageants
¡°Fuck him, screw everything! ! !
As long as we have dreams, we have the strength to face pain.
As long as we have family, we will have allies.
As long as we want to fly, we can fly!
On the screen, some viewers left the scene, some were shocked, some laughed, and only a few people like Kirby and the bearded man were laughing, although the reasons were different.
Off the screen, the audience was moved, some burst into laughter, some were excited, some were moved to tears It was great! Although the understanding is different.
Shocking! ! ! The film critic screening was like Mars hitting the earth. The more I understood, the more shocked I became. It was not the visual shock of a popcorn blockbuster. This one shocked the soul! Albert suddenly couldn't help but twist his body a few times and yelled: "Pricelessly (priceless)!!!"
No film critic will think Roger is weird, because they are also excited!
"Such a good movie should be shown all over the world!"
"viy, you damn genius!"
In the midst of the excitement, the screen gradually went dark and silent. When the image appeared again, the audience saw Richard and others sitting outside an office. Everyone looked serious and stubborn. Except for Oliver, the four of them were The three hands were cuffed together. Through the glass window, you can see Ms. Jenkins and others negotiating with the police in the office.
Then the fat police officer opened the door and came out and said to them: "Okay, you can leave, but the condition is that you will never let your daughters participate in any beauty pageants in California."
Frank looked at the crowd and said, "I think we can still survive."
The frenetic atmosphere in the theater gradually calmed down, but most of the audience still smiled.
In the Chinese Theater, the entire audience still stood up to watch, and a huge storm of applause was suppressed in silence
With everything on camera, it¡¯s clear that the Hoover family accepted the conditions. It was dusk in the hotel parking lot, and they were busy working on the bus. Frank and Devine put the tires back on, and Richard installed the door. After a few quick cuts, it was all ready. Everyone was about to start pushing the bus, laughing and praising it. Oliver: "You did great.", "Better than great."
"Thank you." Oliver regained a bit of happiness.
"Let's get out of here." Richard smiled broadly and walked towards the driver's seat of the car, "Go find something to eat."
With the brisk soundtrack, everyone once again worked together to push the cart, and jumped on one after another. The bus started moving again, gradually leaving the parking lot in a distant view.
The whole scene is that a family is dining in the Luwai dining area of ??a roadside restaurant, not far from the busy lane. They had finished eating. There were many plates with traces of food on the wooden dining table, as well as several soda bottles. At this time, they were each eating a large ice cream.
"He found a lottery ticket that I had just thrown away in a pile of garbage cans outside the house"
Mid-shot of the dining table from an oblique angle. Richard in the middle is smiling in retrospect. While eating ice cream, he talks: "It started to rain at this time. He was crawling around, cursing like a pirate, and suddenly jumped Saying, 'Richard, don't throw the lamp away', I said, 'What?' and he said, 'Throw away the damn lamp!'"
When he was talking, there were several close-up shots, and everyone listening was smiling.
Richard imitated throwing away the lantern, "I threw it into the water, and then he was like" and then imitated being shocked, "Uh uh uh uh"
"Haha!" Everyone laughed, and Oliver, who was eating ice cream, asked with a smile: "What then? What then?" Richard continued: "I picked up the lamp and he was lying there. It was raining hard, but He found the lottery ticket and I asked him, 'Dad, are you okay?' and he looked at me and just looked me in the eye and said, 'Richard, never have kids.'"
In the same shot frame, the whole family is smiling brightly. Frank on the left raised the ice cream in his hand and said with a smile: "To Grandpa!" Everyone raised their ice cream and said, "To Grandpa!"
The camera slowly zoomed away, and their laughter faded into the background. After finishing his own ice cream, Richard went to grab Oliver's next to him. Oliver jumped away with a smile, and Cheryl took away the half of her ice cream. He handed it to Richard and moved it away again. Devine was smiling and Frank was smiling and nodding.
Under the sky, beside the road, a family laughed warmly.
The screen is fading out, and the film is ending.
warmth! This is how ordinary viewers feel at this moment. This family has changed. The family crisis seems to have been resolved except for bankruptcy. I wish you good luck!
Perfect! This is how film critics feel at this time. A family eating ice cream on the roadside means too much.
On the roadside instead of going home, in fact all the crises have been resolved, they are already at home, and they are still on the road.
Life is still one beauty pageant after another, and we still have to be ready to go. But we can have this kind of time to spend time with our families, stop and look at the scenery, taste ice cream and feel in a different place.
Please don¡¯t forget that if you want to be happy, there is one of the easiest ways to do it, and it¡¯s not winning, it¡¯s not getting something, it¡¯s not even making your dreams come true.
All you need is to be happy.
The reason why life is happy is because we see beauty.
The reason why life is sunny is not because of the sun that rises and sets. This is a story without sunshine, but sunshine is in your heart.
Don¡¯t throw away the light in your heart, don¡¯t give up looking for it, maybe good luck will come at some point, I wish you good luck!
On the big screen, the picture faded to black, and a light and clear ending song played. This song is not unfamiliar. LMS did not use an original song, but chose "i-have-a-dream" by Westlife. The warm and moving singing voice is like Oliver singing, like DeWine singing Like all losers sing.
Thunderous applause also broke out, resounding in every place where LMS was shown, giving everything to this movie!
?? 3116 North American theaters, the audience has something to gain, whether they are laughing, moved, crying, thinking, movie fans, fans everyone has something to gain.
The general audience enjoyed a fun and crazy journey, and movie fans, filmmakers, and film critics even enjoyed a baptism of literary classics. No one was dissatisfied with the movie of a 17-year-old boy! It¡¯s incredible beyond description.
Hollywood Chinese Theater was a sensation! A storm is completely breaking out!
The audience¡¯s crazy applause started from the first second of the ending until the end of the entire ending, which lasted for nearly 8 minutes and was completely unstoppable!
