"Tragedy destroys the valuable things of life for others to see, and comedy tears the worthless things to others to see."
People often sigh for tragedy and cannot forget it for a long time. So what is people's attitude toward comedy?
The interpretation of "comedy" in the "Concise Oxford Dictionary" is: comedy, nouns, light-hearted, fun, and often ironic stage plays, which mainly show daily life and have a happy ending.
Since the birth of comedy, people began to pay attention to and discuss the laughter mechanism of comedy: what causes comedy to make people laugh, what kind of system structure does it have, and what kind of stimulating characteristics are required for comedy itself? The problem ultimately comes down to need What kind of spiritual core can be called a comedy.
Although the plot in comedy, there is a rule that it cannot burden the audience, but this does not mean that comedy is just a laugh. Behind the banter and comical, comedy conveys profound connotations to the audience in a special way. The comic spirit of
is a rebellion against dark reality and rock and roll.
The film "Three Stupies Havoc in Bollywood" is one of the masterpieces of Indian movies. It takes education as the theme and tells the story of Fahan, Langa and Rancher in the university.
In the film, Rancher, played by Amir Khan, uses his own unique way of thinking to subvert the traditional Indian educational philosophy and change the destiny of himself and those around him. The gap between the rich and the poor and the strict social hierarchy in India make it as difficult to enter a university as it is in our country’s college entrance examination, and entering a university is regarded by many Indians as a way to change their destiny.
Under such a background, some problems and contradictions are bound to appear. A very typical example is Fahan and Langa in the film. Although they were admitted to an excellent university in India, they were studying majors they were not interested in, and they were afraid of studying all day long. It was not until the appearance of Rancher that they saved them.
This is a light-hearted comedy, so the director chose to make a fuss about the lines when dealing with the "rebellious" section. In order to show Rancher's rebellion, his lines violated the "quantity criterion" in the conversation criterion. When Rancher was asked "the definition of a machine" by the professor, he summarized it in his own words, but the professor criticized him for failing to memorize the original words in the book.
So Lancher showed his "rebellious" nature, using a series of complicated words to tease and tease the teacher, causing the classmates to burst into laughter. In this passage, Lancher avoided serious and hard-line frontal conflict with the teacher, which is in line with the characteristics of comedy; at the same time, he cleverly countered the teacher's outdated and pedantic educational concept, which can be said to be very exciting. The comic spirit of
is a powerful irony. It can be said that a good comedy is always unavoidable of all kinds of irony, and "Three Fools Raise Bollywood" is no exception. The whole film is full of satires about Indian education. Compared with the direct way, irony seems to hit people's hearts better. In the film, Rancher once joked: "There are ten fingers in total, but you see, you have so many rings on your hand that you can hardly even have enough fingers." Here Rancher satirizes his friend's The blind worship of religion, to a certain extent, is actually an expression of extreme insecurity in the heart. In a religious country like India, this phenomenon is very common. At this time, the film is not limited to satirizing India's cramming education. To a certain extent, it is also criticizing the negative influence of Indian religion. When
was introduced in the mainland, the translation of the film was "Three idiots in Bollywood", and the English name was "Three idiots", which means three fools. In fact, judging from the title, it is also an irony. The three protagonists who cannot be called fools in the film, especially Rancher, are very forward-looking and avant-garde in their thinking. While everyone else was still at a loss, he had already seen the future clearly.
So the title actually satirizes those people in India who blindly believe in books and pursue dogmatism, they are the real fools. The comic spirit of
is a smile and tears. Although the tone of the whole film is relatively relaxed and pleasant, coupled with the unique singing and dancing blessings of India, the audience will not have any burden when watching it. But in the film, there are also many heart-wrenching moments.
zIn the 0z film, Joey sings about his tragic life. He seems to be living someone else's life all his life, even if only once, he wants to be himself. In the end, Joey committed suicide in the dorm under pressure.This is a tragic moment in the whole film, and it is also an important turning point. Perhaps the audience will start from this moment and think seriously about the message this film wants to convey to us.
said at the beginning that comedy can never be a laugh. Those moments that will linger in our hearts for a long time are the moments when we smile and weep. At such a moment, the impact on the audience is unmatched by pure tragedy, because the complexity and heaviness of life are exposed at this moment.
I think this is also the reason why "Three Fools Haunted Bollywood" has become one of the classic masterpieces of Indian movies, because it has aroused social thoughts while maintaining the essence of comedy movies. The reason for the development of Indian films is inseparable from their own thinking, introspection and criticism. It is undeniable that there are still many problems in Indian society, but they have the courage to touch on the forbidden areas of sensitive topics one after another in the film, and most of them have used them. The witty and humorous way is very admirable.
comedy can make people roar with laughter, or make people cry for a second. This is where the charm and spirit of comedy lies. Even if it is sad in nature, it will put on a coat of humor and tell us profound truths in a relaxed way. The
comedy wraps the darkness of society in a layer of sugar paper, then tore it to pieces and throws it in front of us. Rebellion, irony, and unavoidable tragedy, I think these are the key words of the comedy spirit. It is them that make up a wonderful and diverse comedy movie. The spirit of comedy goes far beyond this. I hope that in the future, more and better comedy movies will appear on the big screen for us to enjoy.
