How do you rate the movie 'Glitter Girls'?

A domestic masterpiece that was almost ruined by the poster

Seeing the poster of "Glitter Girls" really makes you impotent before you look at it.

Ahem, but don't let the pomposity of the poster fool you, this really is a masterpiece ah hello!

Mentioning folk music, the last one to catch Qing Jia's attention was director Wu Tianming's posthumous film "A Hundred Birds", this one about the legacy of the suona that eventually faded away to a lone sound amidst the influx of Western instruments.

But this recent viewing of "Glitter Girls" was so inspirational that I wanted to sing and dance along with the leads in the movie theater!

The first thing to mention about this movie is its writer and director.

In 2011, newcomer screenwriter Bao Wha-Wa made himself known to many viewers with "33 Days of Lost Love," and earned himself a trophy at the Golden Horse Awards for Best Adapted Screenplay.

Six years later, Bao has teamed up with the man in his life, Wang Xiaobie (Wang Ran, the film's director), for a movie called "Glitter Girl," in which he threatens to avenge his 14-year-old self. (The movie is based on his own original screenplay, "33 Days of Lost Love," which he wrote for the film. (In Bao's movie "33 Days of Lost Love", which is based on her own original novel, the venomous and soft-hearted "Wang Xiaobi" is a "once-in-a-century" character, and is based on Bao's "other half" in life! "(Wang Ran)

Talking about the creation of the original intention, the screenwriter Bao Huahua revealed that she had studied folk music for ten years, and was always bullied by her Western music classmates at school.

"One day I went through my old diary and realized that there were a lot of unhappy things in the diary I wrote in middle school, and I wanted to take revenge for 14-year-old Bao Wha-Wha, so I wrote a happy story."

This happy story that Bow Whale Whale is talking about is "Glitter Girl," which she describes as an ongoing story that takes place in modern times and doesn't go back to the past, and doesn't have much to lose.

"Glitter Girl" sets its sights on traditional Chinese folk music and the emerging second-generation culture, making it almost the first movie in China to use second-generation as a gimmick.

The movie is about a group of youthful high school students attending a music annex.

In the music school, the "foreign" western music students and the "local" folk music students form two factions that are on fire with each other.

In an era when few people seem to listen to folk music, those who study folk music are bullied out of their jobs in front of the Western students, and the school, as an official institution, is even so biased that, after a fight, the folk music students are segregated and their practice rooms are fitted with iron gates.

The film's heroine, Chen Jing, has been learning the yangqin since she was an elementary school student. She's unimpressive, dresses dirtily, and doesn't have many friends at school, except for a scruffy male best friend with steel teeth, Oil Scum.

As a folk music Yangqin major, she fell in love with the school grass piano prince Wang Wen, drummed up the courage to confess only in exchange for a sentence: Yangqin is something.

Even said bluntly: Music is divided into classes.

Chen Jing, played by Xu Lu, teams up with four secondary fan girls from dormitory 502 in order to prove herself to her senior crush.

Two third-dimensional humans, four second-dimensional "elites" and the 2.5-dimensional band are officially formed! As an important element of this movie, the secondary yuan can never be left behind!

The atmosphere created in the movie is mysterious and spooky when Chen Jing first walks into the dormitory of the second-dimensional girl.

"Attack full" of the thousand fingers of adults, as a handsome and reticent god of the guzheng, almost all the girls "bend", the actor Liu Yongxi scene was more "out of control"! Female fans wildly shouted "husband", fans also went on stage to ask for a hug super excited.

Cute Luo Niang style Beibei sauce

Gothic girl Tata sauce

and do not like to talk to the Erhu girl Sakura.

They were immersed inside their own little worlds, dressed in a purely second nature outfit, and were undoubtedly an anomaly in the eyes of passersby.

Seeing these posters is truly awe-inspiring!

And the way Chen Shock bought them ......

Of course, for many people who love secondary culture, this movie's interpretation of secondary is obviously symbolic and shallow.

Ancient songs, cos clothes, Luo Tianyi ...... All of these have the feel of labeling the second dimension.

Some people even questioned that secondary yuan does not equal mental illness!

But here, Qingjia would like to say: the film is just to make the environment to exaggerate, and most of the audience sitting in the theater is still zero basis for the second generation, compared to the senior second generation, the simplification of the second generation is just to make the ordinary audience better understand.

Of course the film is not perfect, for example, the narrative mode is very simple and routine, the plot development is too idealized, and the second half is more chicken soup.

On the plot setting, some parts of the climax are not enough padding leading to a lack of strength, and the force of the climax is not up to the audience's expectation. In addition, in order to strengthen the conflict, some plots are forced to create contradictions detached from reality.

As for the actors, they are very satisfactory.

Xu Lu, who shot to fame with her role as Yu Rao in Legend of Concubine Zhen Huan, did a great job interpreting the whimsical young girl Chen Jing.

And Peng Yuchang, who came out of "The Prince Consort's Rise to Power," went from being a four-eyed, steel-toothed oil dregs who silently guarded Chen Chen's amazing side at the beginning to a young freshman who took off his glasses later.

In person, he's still quite handsome

Liu Yongxi, who plays the role of Thousand Fingers Adult Xiao Haze Dai, gave Qingjia quite a surprise! I'm sure you'll be leaving the theater after the show breaks up with the same thought!

Yoo Young-hee is not only a fan of secondary culture herself, but she has also been learning the guzheng since she was a child, and all of the guzheng episodes in the movie are played for real.

Of course! The biggest surprise is the old cadre of the Cultural Affairs Bureau, the hairy and indescribably cool Eason Chan.

On the whole, except for the poster and the bugs, it's still a movie worth seeing.
