Introduce ethan hawke. And recommend some of his works.

Before sunrise

Love is at sunset.

Ethan's first movie should be Dead Poets Society. In the first semester of freshman year, the foreign church shows a film without subtitles every Wednesday. One day, she said, this week, we watched Dead Poets Society, my favorite movie. Because there are no subtitles, the dialogue is not fully understood, about 80%. Remember that shy Todd Anderson, how young Ethan was?

My experience of watching movies is very strange, maybe it's a whim, maybe it's a subconscious accumulation. In high school, the school would show movies in the amphitheatre on weekends, but I didn't go to see them once. Then, I don't know why one day in senior three, I sat at my desk reciting ancient history, five names, Ingrid Bergman, Vivien Leigh, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Marlene DeDerry, and those blurred images of black and white photos popped up in my mind. Then I wrote these five names into a "rice" centered on the word "Li". Then I started to buy magazines, such as popular movies, movie stories, pictorial and so on. I take seven or eight books home every week. My father is worried. How can this child be like this?

It was in those magazines that I first read an article by ethan hawke, saying that he was sensitive, handsome, fluent in French and German, and also played the piano, violin and trumpet. In short, he is very talented, which is the dream of all women. Then a whole page lists the Chinese and English names and posters of all the films he has made. Only one of them I remember clearly, Before Sunrise/Before Sunrise, the poster is a silhouette of a man and a woman, which is very emotional. After reading the article at that time, I was not fascinated. Even after the college entrance examination, I entered the university. I saw Dead Poets Society, but I didn't find it was him. Until one day after the canteen, I found a line in the poster of Weekly Movie:

Julie Derby won the Best Director Award at the Berlin Film Festival for Before Sunrise starring ethan hawke.

So I suddenly remembered the magazine and the posters of two people more than a year ago, and went back to the dormitory and said to my classmates, "There is a film before sunrise this week, which was performed by ethan hawke. I like this actor very much-All Women's Dreams. The classmate said, Oh, by the way, what did he play? I froze. Yes, what did he play? I don't seem to have seen his movies at all. "In short, this person is very talented! I like him very much. Let's go and see him together. " This is very interesting. It wasn't until I went home in the summer vacation and went back to the pile of magazines in high school that I realized that I had read articles about this man before, and my inexplicable preference for Ethan was finally explained (Brad Pitt also met it. Before reading his first work, The Years of Burning Love, I declared everywhere that I liked this super invincible and sexy man-I even tried my best to discredit gwyneth paltrow and almost framed the back cover of the magazine to express my confession. In fact, I didn't know anything about him, and later I learned that it was because of high school magazines.

Now that I think about it, I can't explain my senior year. Although I suddenly started to buy dozens of magazines at home, I seemed to be only satisfied with these articles and didn't consider going to see those movies. There are movies at school on weekends, but I didn't go to see Titanic once before graduation. People around me have read it several times, but I still lie in bed reading magazines with peace of mind. It was not until I went home once that my parents gave out movie tickets at school, but the whole family even saw my grandmother and cousin in grade one. In order not to waste, my father, the head teacher in charge of senior three, was forced to study at night. I went to see Titanic, which touched countless people in Looking for Marriage (who else watched Titanic with my father, huh? )。

I always have a better memory of phone numbers and foreigners' names and places. So my senior three is often considered as "primitive accumulation of capital period"-I read articles but don't watch movies. So basically, most of the names of directors, actors and movies in the existing film database in my mind were obtained at that time-and the error rate in Chinese and English is extremely low. There is a foreign teacher in the university who is a very devout Christian. When people asked her why she came to China to teach English, her answer was "I heard the voice of God and asked her to come to China to help these people learn English". Sometimes I feel the same way-the idea of "wanting to see a movie" suddenly came to me, and through continuous practice in the university, it really transformed and developed a group of fans (not to mention the college, I am definitely the favorite movie in our department at least. MM, the most stubborn roommate, finally got excited after watching Harry Potter. Now she has returned from London and entered Citibank to get a master's degree. While I am very gratified, I have to sigh and regret that I have not turned my love for movies into a driving force for learning and can't contribute to the financial cause of the motherland. I really blame myself ~ ~ ~

Go ahead, Ethan-

Perhaps it was because I didn't answer my roommate's question, and my expression froze. I was the only one who went to see it before sunrise that night. I didn't know the plot at all before, but it didn't affect my appreciation of the movie. This is a movie with only two people. I can enjoy talking about seemingly trivial things. Then I wrote a diary or something. At that time, the subtitles were translated like this:

"Imagine that many years later, when you are cooking breakfast in the kitchen, your husband has already got up and will send his son to school later. You stand in front of the fire and can't help thinking,' What would it be like if I had chosen another man among them a few years ago?' You see, I may be one of them ... "

Although I was impressed, I didn't see the film again. It was not until later that I found out that the original line was like this:

Jump forward 10, 20 years, ok? You're married. It's just ... your marriage is not as dynamic as it used to be, you know? You start blaming your husband. You start to think about the people you met in your life … what would happen if you were with one of them. Well, I am one of them. That is me. So think of this as time travel … from then until now to find out what you missed. Look, this is a great help for you and your future husband, and it will help you find that you have done nothing wrong. I'm a big loser like him, totally unmotivated and bored … and you made the right choice, and you're really happy … (I'm glad this passage appeared again in the trailer before sunset)

The guy who made the subtitles must feel the same way. He added some oil and vinegar to translate such lovely words as "standing in front of the stove to make breakfast". Hehe ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Usually I can't answer the question "Your favorite XX movie", but anyway, this movie has since become one of my ten favorite love movies (the other nine? Sorry, I didn't think about it. Maybe it's because of its fresh sketch style, maybe it doesn't give a happy ending (I always like tragedies), maybe it's because I've been longing for such a train affair since then (although the word is vulgar ...) ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ More importantly, I think maybe this is the way I usually treat love and friendship-enjoy it, but be ready to get out at any time.

When I was a child, I often transferred schools. I studied in four schools for three years in junior high school. At first, it was cross-city, and later it was cross-province. Growing up, I didn't play as a big friend or a friend. The only girl who is more iron is the girl who started dating me after graduating from primary school. From junior high school to senior high school, I haven't seen each other for ten years, and I don't make phone calls. I keep in touch entirely by letters. Every time I go to a new place, I will quickly adapt to the new environment and new language, make new friends soon, and then leave soon-so naturally, I can't and gradually get used to maintaining long-term close relationships with people. When I first transferred to another school, all the children in my class bought me presents and saw me off. I cried myself to death. When the car drove across the Yangtze River, my father said to me at the age of ten, you know, people sometimes have to learn to accept differences. Not everyone you know can always be with you. This sentence may have inadvertently affected my life. According to my own understanding, it has been carried forward into another sentence that I still believe in but is always refuted by my friends. "No one in this world can always accompany you, even if * * * has gone a long way together, it is inseparable after all." So, why talk about love and eternity? It's better to keep doing parallel lines, so that we can go to the end together, even for friends, so there are many familiar strangers in my life: I didn't go home during the National Day holiday in my junior year, watching HBO in the classroom, chatting with another girl, movies, music, ideals, work, boys ... Most people went home for the New Year, and there were only two of us in the classroom. When we left that day, we talked very late. Later, we met several times in cinemas, libraries, canteens or teaching buildings. We were all surprised and laughed. Just say "hi". At the graduation ceremony, she was with a senior, and when she saw it from a distance, she said hello. I haven't seen it since. I wonder what she is doing now.

The movie before sunset has been out for a long time, and I have been forbearing to watch it. Maybe it's because the previous movies made me feel so good that I don't care how they were made. "One glance is enough", and I don't want to know whether Celine and Jesse are together after half a year (if I were a director, I probably wouldn't let them be together. It's strange that some good movies will want to see them again after watching them. For example, every time I watch Face to Face, I think it's the first time (maybe it's because of Cage? ), but some good movies can't bear to watch it again after watching it. They would rather remember them or what others said, such as Grand Central Station and Before Sunrise. Is this the difference between a husband and his first lover? Ha ha)-until every time the owner of the dishwasher says, why don't you buy this? You absolutely like this way of buying movies. Because I really couldn't pick out other movies I hadn't seen, I finally couldn't resist the temptation and bought this before sunset. Why do you know that some movies will be your favorite movies just by watching the opening subtitles (such as under the Tuscan sun) or just watching the DVD menu? I don't know what the song on the menu before sunset is, but it reminds me of my work nine years ago. The opening is also a quiet garden, alley and coffee shop. In a flash, I can't wait to quit my job at once, buy a plane ticket to Paris and feel the afterglow under the tower. It's been nine years. Ethan is old and Julie is old. Her face has lost the vitality and spirit of her youth, but her eyes are more vicissitudes and quiet. He sat in the bookstore and talked as much as the last episode. She stood by the bookshelf, secretly listening to his story and smiling to herself. I haven't seen you for nine years, and there is no surprise and excitement when I meet you again. Say "hi" and kiss your cheek, just like two hours ago. What a wonderful thing is a movie? A story has been told for nine years, and it's not over yet. Gardens, alleys, coffee shops, cruise ships ... the conversation 9 years ago is still going on. Because of her grandmother's death, she can't keep an appointment in Vienna. "Wait, you didn't go. You'd better have a good reason why you don't go. " Ethan didn't speak, with a bitter but helpless look-"Oh, no!" I haven't seen his movies for four years, and this look has made me like Ethan again. The ending of the story is still unclear. "Honey, you're going to miss the plane-I know." He has a wife and a son. What will happen to Celine and Jesse? This question doesn't bother me too much, but I think he may leave the next morning? Celine and Jesse's conversation is not over, and the problems between men and women are the same. They keep repeating and have no ending. Nina simone is another gain that this film has brought me. The day after the movie, I went shopping and found nina simone's anthology. I imagined Celine imitating her cute appearance and couldn't help buying it. One of the pleasures of being a movie fan is to wander through these movies, music, novels or poems-after watching the movie, I will look through the original book, other movies of the original author, another movie that the protagonist likes, the singer that the protagonist likes and other movies that the singer has starred in-one after another, endlessly.

I saw that Ethan's second movie was Snowfall Cedar/Snowfall Pine (I don't want to translate it into love in the snow, I'm tired ~ ~), and he actually fell in love with a Japanese, hum, which made me very angry.

I have never liked Japanese movies very much. Although I have to admit that there are many masters in the Forbidden City, such as Akira Kurosawa, I may find Japanese unpleasant or incomprehensible. Besides, I'm not interested in watching the best movies. In my eyes, Japanese movies have only two extremes: love letters, dolls and so on, which are very beautiful, and the great escape, the sensory world and so on, which are very abnormal. The resistance to Japanese movies probably comes from a TV series "Girl without Home". At that time, I seemed to have just moved to Guangdong on the third day of the second grade. The TV stations were all Japanese dramas and cartoons, which were not my thing. I don't quite remember what The Homeless Girl is about. It is probably the struggle history of a girl who has no parents and a big brother who takes care of her next door. The heroine is always bullied by a bunch of bad girls. A group of young girls are as big as beans, their eyes are full of hatred, and their mouths often emit vicious words. They all seem to bear the hatred of the country and the family. Dog P, when I was their age, I was most angry that my little son and sister downstairs didn't take me to climb the mountain, or that the "soup" I worked so hard to "boil" while playing with mud was knocked over by some daredevil. My grandmother said, "Why are Japanese children like this?" . When I was in college, a very good friend took pains to recommend Everything in Zhou Lili to me. After watching it, I saw a group of girls cheat another girl to rape a boy, and one boy forced another boy to masturbate in front of everyone ... I hate this "cruel youth" drama.

Cedar in Chevron is a best-selling novel based on David Goodson. Ethan hawke plays Ismail, a journalist whose arm was broken in World War II. In an interview, he met his childhood lover, Japanese woman Hatsue, in court, and her husband was accused of money murder. The film uses flashback, and Ishmael recalls his first love story while listening to the trial. I would have been very interested in history, World War II, murder mystery and racism, but the story developed slowly. Japanese women are not good-looking, Japanese men are not good-looking, plus the length of 130 points. If it weren't for Ethan, I might not have gone to see the film at all. The only thing that impressed me was that they hid in a tree hole to avoid the rain. The feeling of being cautious and eager to move is well described, as well as those bright strawberries. The picture and photography are great, although the color is cold, it is in line with the theme. Ethan still has a melancholy expression, which makes me more willing to believe that he is also an off-screen poet, but I can't imagine him laughing. I like his slightly locked eyebrows and thoughtful look (cruel fans)
