Chapter 64: Singing and Dancing Youth

After the opening, the black screen gradually lights up, and the first thing that appears is the beautiful snowy scenery of the Vasa Qu Mountains in Salt Lake City. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The info resort is full of excitement at this time, and the names of the main actors appear one by one in the lively pictures.

Chris Pine, Jessica Alba, Rachel McAdams, Ryan Gosling, Kelly HSD, ...... , the last name appears in the center of the picture - Director & amp; amp; amp; Screenwriter, Sid Leonhardt.

The story of "Youth Musical" is quite concise - one is an athletic teenager who would rather practice basketball for a while than participate in the New Year's ball, and the other is a "nerdy" girl who is happy to read. At the behest of two mothers, basketball boy Troy and gifted girl Gabriel meet unexpectedly at the New Year's ball.

The spotlight of the karaoke stage randomly drew the two of them, although on the surface they were both shirking, but when the music sounded, the two who began to be helpless couldn't help but sing with enthusiasm in their hearts.

There is a little easter egg here, the boy who picked the hero and heroine to sing on stage turned out to be Sid's cameo. Sid put Jessica on stage himself, and then blinked to Chris Pyne, "You know, someday, you'll thank me." ”

Sid then slipped the microphone to Chris Pine, and before stepping off the stage, added, "Or-Not maybe not." ”

The audience in the audience couldn't help but laugh knowingly when they saw Troy with a bewildered face.

The music played, and while Gabriel was still hesitating, Troy couldn't help but sing: "Living in my own world—I don't understand it at all—anything is possible—if you are brave enough to take risks." ”

Although "Youth Musical" is simple on the surface, the song from the beginning has set the tone of the entire series - have the courage to challenge and realize your dreams!

Just as Troy finished singing the overture and was about to turn away, Gabriel spoke: "I never believe—not what I have seen—I never open my heart to any possibility." ”

The girl's beautiful singing voice made the boy stop, and the tacit understanding between the two was like a natural one.

"I know" "I know" - → "Things have changed--I've never felt this way--just tonight--a new journey has begun--I feel so good with you--Oh!--And now--I see your eyes--I feel from the bottom of my heart--a new journey has begun......"

A brand new song, not complicated tune, sings about youth and years, but in a way that has never been done before. The young fans in the theater seemed to gather around Troy and Gabriel to the music, listening to their singing and cheering for themselves and their youth!

The end of the song, although relaxed, also made everyone curious about the next story. After Troy exchanged contact details with Gabriel, they separated again.

The story also begins with the start of the new year, Eastern High School and their varsity heroes, the Wildcats, and who is the captain of the Wildcats?

Seeing this, countless young people silently nodded in their hearts, isn't this what the most popular sports teams and cheerleaders in their schools look like?

Then there is the appearance of the Evans siblings, the sweet blonde doll-like Rachel McAdams makes everyone's eyes shine, and Ryan Gosling looks handsome and tall in blue.

What's more, although it seems inconspicuous at first, the film has its own unique attraction and rhythm, which makes everyone involuntarily fall in.

Gabriel, who is newly transferred, is set up as a classroom like a theater stage, and the actor Troy calls and everyone pulls out their phones to check the comedic effect, these small details make people marvel at the work of Sid and the crew behind the scenes.

"Looks like this kid has put a lot of effort into it. Roy Ebert, the king of film critics, touched his chin and thought.

In the details of the film, Sid subtly arranged the important finals of the Wildcats two weeks later, and the registration for the winter concert, so that the audience could easily understand and accept it.

When Troy was pleasantly surprised to find out that Gabriel had transferred to his own school, the two were pleasantly reunited, but Troy, who returned to school, was unable to talk about singing at the New Year's Ball - because "this is not what I did!"

This sentence immediately made all the young viewers feel related, although the problem of violence in North American high schools at this time was not as serious as it was later, but in school, the level of social status is absolutely clear.

The coolest sports teams and cheerleaders, the cold art students, the low fucking nerds. They are like small fortresses, they don't get along with each other for a long time, and no one will do "things that don't belong to them"!

But do they really not want to? hehe.

When Troy discussed the concert with his friend Chade, he only got Chader to scoff: "Dude, think about Jordan the Flyer, Rodman, the rebounding king, will audition for the school's musical theater performance? ”

This immediately made Troy, who was originally eager to try the musical, retreat, and then, the audience who thought it would be the basketball training of the protagonist Troy unexpectedly found that this batch of basketball little fresh meat danced to the beat and drum beat.

And then they started singing!

"The coach said, right and left - look at the ball, pay attention to the defense - need to run, dribble the ball to the gap - don't worry about the long shot......"

Troy and the whole basketball team, singing and dancing, they dribbled to the basket, they grabbed the rebounds. What seems to be an ordinary basketball training has been adapted into an action-packed dance song, and I have to say that Anne Fletcher (choreographer) has a deep skill.

And this rhythm of singing without saying a word makes most professionals' eyes plummet, "Isn't this the form of a classic old musical and dance movie?" Pauline Kyle (Queen of New York Film Critics) thought with the corners of her mouth curled up in pleasure.

As representatives of the golden age of song and dance films, classic films such as "Singin' in the Rain" and "West Side Story" all have this common feature - they start singing when they don't agree with each other.

But Sid's "Youth Musical" borrows classic forms while unaffected by the practical and novel content and subject matter, which is refreshing. For those young audiences, they don't know what Singin' in the Rain is, but they intuitively find this eclectic, new style of singing and dancing very interesting!

Then the identity of the heroine Gabriel's science prodigy is also revealed, and the school's musical queen Chapee stuffs Gabriel's science prize-winning newsprint paper into the closet of Taylor, the president of the science club.

Then, after a series of inner struggles with the protagonist Troy, the main drama finally takes the stage - the audition for the school's winter musical has finally begun!

To be honest, the first few participants really "suffered a lot" in order to show that they sang ugly and had different character styles. Especially the Latin girl who has a high and sharp voice and is about to puncture people's eardrums, not only Teacher Dabbs, Xia Pei and Miss Ryan in the play cover their ears, but even the young audience outside the play can't help but show uncomfortable expressions.

"Ah, Cindy. How big...... The use of singing notes, which nature does not have. Ms. Dabbs's bloodless tongue made the theater burst into chuckles.

Just as the contestants were performing one by one, the heroine Gabriel finally arrived. The two men looked cautious in the face of Ms. Dabbs's caustic evaluation.

Then there is the performance of Queen Sharpeh and the Lane siblings.

On the curtain, practice before singing. Then the singing begins.

is full of dynamic music, although the slightly decent singing voices of the two sisters and brothers are not very outstanding, but as long as you compare the singers in front of you, everyone immediately feels that their singing is beautiful.

After the Evans siblings sang, Troy, who was about to give up, was pulled onto the stage by Gabriel, and sang together again, allowing the two to find a sense of refreshment again.

"It's hard to believe that I never found out - you were always there for me - I thought I was alone, no one to hug - but you were always there for me - it felt ......like never before"

Although there were some twists and turns, Ms. Dabbs, who heard their two beautiful chorus, finally opened the net and gave them the opportunity to retest.

The news immediately blew up the whole school!

"How dare she sign up!?" Xia Pei screamed through gritted teeth in the school cafeteria.

"Someone has to tell her the rules here!" Shape slapped the table, causing others to tremble.

This sentence immediately made the young people in the theater empathize, how many people have been bullied by the person who said this sentence at school, and how many people have watched such a thing happen?

Queen Chapey condescendingly looked at the students in the school cafeteria, and then, start singing!

"You have no way of knowing what it feels like - like walking on the ropes of a safety net - but I have to say that my secret longing ......" was the first to sing out to one of Troy and Todd's basketball teammates.

He put his arm around Todd's shoulder: "If Troy can tell his secret, so can I." I cook ......."

"What!?" everyone was taken aback.

"I love to cook. Scones, apple pudding!" he said excitedly.

"NoNoNO!Stop!" everyone immediately shook their heads in refusal.

"In the future, I want to make the perfect cheese pastry. As soon as he said it, he drove the coolest basketball players and cheerleaders crazy.

"NoNO, just do what you know about!-If you want to be cool, follow the simple rules-don't break the rules...... NoNO - Just keep it as it is!" they threw the pudding off his hand and shoved the basketball back into his hand.
