When the child grows up, there will be new children.
The remake of the animated version of "Dumbo", whether it is for feelings or to continue the influence of "Dumbo" ip, it will not be explored. Only discuss how the story of this new movie is narrated.
Movies in different periods will carry the imprint of the times.
The story is a story that revolves around the reunion of "Dai Bao" with his mother. Millie and Timothy in the animated version are a kind of character that is the key to promoting the development of the story. In shaping such a character, it will give a great halo to the character. From a certain perspective, the character image of the character represents part of the theme of the movie. But at the same time such a role will be designed with some flaws. But through other auxiliary roles, they promote the development of the story together and enrich the main characters at the same time. So as to further sublimate the theme of the movie.
The animated version of "Dumbo", the story is relatively simple, simply summarized as the weird little elephant relying on the sky to eat, becoming a star in the circus show business, thus saving Mommy to lead Mommy to the peak of the elephant story. After summarizing the animated version and knowing the live-action movie, it can also be simply summarized as the story of the weird little elephant relying on the sky to eat, thus saving Mommy to live a free and happy elephant life with Mommy. To compare the two, the theme expressed in the live-action version of "Dumbo" is a sublimation of the previous version.
Why do you conclude that being a circus star is of high status and good treatment, but it is essentially the same as other caged animals. All were tamed and all lost their freedom. And the theme of the era that gives animals freedom and returns to nature with the imprint of the new era is also the new expression demand of the live-action version of Dumbo.
The film also expresses other needs, such as how to resolve family conflicts. The conflict between Millie and her father Hult was caused by misunderstanding and distrust. How does the film resolve such contradictions? The two methods, one main and one time, are mainly due to the role of the high-altitude queen Colette in the film, which is used to reconcile the contradiction between the two. The second is the promotion of the entire storyline. For the audience, this is enlightening. This can also show that the audience also determines the necessity of the existence of this theme in the film.
Of course, there are also unobvious expressions. This part is mainly to take care of the grown-up "children". There are two main points to mention. One is to look at the whole film, especially the difference between the Medici Brothers Circus and Dreamland. Although the cage of the circus traps animals, it also traps circus actors. They are in a two-way relationship, but the relationship is of different degrees. Circus actors are free, but not free. Hult is an example. Circus actors and animals are in similar situations. The difference is only the position in the situation.
Second, for circus actors, most audiences focus on their funny appearance, not their heart. This is a very common phenomenon nowadays. The concept of idealism is also revealed slightly.
A live-action movie story, the "character" is the other main body of the whole story. This is different from the animated version of the plot setting where animals are the mainstay and the characters are the supplement. This is also to better shorten the distance between the film and the audience, and have a better sense of substitution and resonance. Punishing evil and promoting good is a theme that will never go out of fashion, which is clearly expressed in both the animated version and the live-action version. However, due to different periods, there will be different expression needs. So, in today's view, what are the different themes expressed in the live-action "Dumbo" movie? This is worth exploring.
Insert a digression:
The eternal struggle between light and darkness comes from the monotheism of Zoroastrianism. Of course, this concept also exists in many religions.
"Dilly Bao" no longer relies on feathers, Millie no longer relies on necklaces, what about you? !
