Paddington Bear 2 is a promotional film in London. Why do you say that?

Paddington Bear 2 is actually an urban tourism propaganda film showing the characteristics of London. In the process of searching for pop-up book, we also felt the friendliness, enthusiasm, tolerance and beauty of London through retro and exquisite pictures. The most impressive scene is that when Paddington browsed the pop-up book, the setting of the paper folding city was ingenious, unconventional and impressive.

The Browns live in a typical middle-class residential area in London. Being friendly, harmonious, polite and not interfering with each other excessively is the main tone of neighborhood life, and it is also the way that the film hopes to convey to the audience that Londoners treat people. Of course, compared with the real international metropolis London, it may be too beautified and idealized. It may be more appropriate if the stage of the film is placed in a traditional English country town. Of course, this is also determined by the main tone of the film. After all, Paddington Bear is the most famous fairy tale image in English literature, and it is the most suitable choice to represent London.

In the past two years, Britain has experienced Britain's withdrawal from the European Union, the refugee crisis and the rise of anti-globalization tide, and London's image as an international city has also been greatly affected. At this time, if we can rebuild the image of London in the eyes of people all over the world through a film, the local government and cultural departments will definitely spare no effort to support it. Paddington Bear 2 was born under such a background.

Paddington Bear is a fairy tale literature, so the film language style of Paddington Bear 2 is the warm color of fairy tales, and even the gloomy and dark place like prison has been shaped into a pink and lovely painting style. In Prison Break, we can see many traces of wes anderson. For a moment, people seemed to think that they had crossed into The Grand Budapest Hotel.

In addition, there is a strong parody style in the film, such as Uncle Hugh's One-Man Show in the Attic, in which one person plays multiple roles. Originally, it was not difficult for the old English drama bones coming from the stage play, but Uncle Hugh's interpretation was a bit exaggerated and made people feel a little crazy, which inevitably made people feel sympathy for this funny villain. Similarly, in the train chase scene at the end, a lot of exaggerated and comic elements are added, which is exciting but not thrilling, which makes people less worried. This drama setting is in line with the theme of relaxation, happiness and family happiness in the whole movie.
