In my opinion, compared with the romance of the French and the enthusiasm of the Spanish, the feelings of the British always seem deep and dignified, which seems to coincide with some characteristics of our culture. At the same time, it also has the "exoteric expression" of Western ancestors. This kind of complex fusion makes British films, especially love and family films, filled with an ambiguous and restrained feeling. We can see this from Ordinary Love (2019).
This is exactly what it attracts me.
As its name implies, Ordinary Love, the whole film has one key word: ordinary theme, common plot and common narration. "A loving husband looks after his wife with cancer" is not an attractive story.
Within five minutes of the beginning of the Ordinary Love, the topic (discovery, suspected) was introduced; within ten minutes, the topic (diagnosis, treatment) was brought to the fore, and then the treatment was always focused on. From the beginning to the end, there is almost no ups and downs, and there is no so-called climax. Such a story that can guess the end at the beginning, without fascinating plot, is bound to create a sense of mediocrity.
As an emotional movie, Ordinary Love has made great efforts in emotional expression.
First of all, it's exquisite. The biggest feeling Ordinary Love gives me is exquisite. This includes not only the control of details, but also the control of emotional tone and emotional expression. This delicacy makes the whole movie become extremely smooth, which directly brings the audience an immersion experience. If you can't catch you in the plot, move you emotionally. It is clear that this has been extremely successful.
Then there is the depth in Ordinary Love. I said before that most British expressions are deep. There is no lengthy narration, no spiritual encouragement. Husband and wife argue about trifles, and turn to walk hand in hand, and what they will never forget is their daughter who died unexpectedly.
Finally, decency, which is related to profundity. Even if there is no special plot, you can see the decent in Ordinary Love. Even in the most difficult times, they seem to retain a trace of British pride. You can attribute it to the core of culture, and in this film, it undoubtedly becomes a kind of optimism about life and calm about death.
The composition, hue, photography and editing of Ordinary Love are all excellent. A scene of his wife on the operating table: cold color, overhead shot, camera rising after anesthesia, virtual, like a dream, like God's perspective. The composition in several places is also amazing, whether it is the blue curtain separating three beds or the scene of entering the train after anesthesia makes my eyes bright.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that actors and actresses in Ordinary Love are both really good at acting and their acting skills support most of the film. The movie starts with a walk for two and ends with a walk. Life is a long journey, I hope everyone is not lonely.
