Film Review from Prada to Nada

There are many ways to succeed in low-budget movies. It is easy to find a novel angle, exquisite picture and absurd plot, but there are so many absurd ideas in the world, all for no reason. Then, it is not a shortcut to pick a few beautiful actors, dress up and talk about a relaxed love. From Pula to Nada is a pleasing proof.

The film Sense and Sensibility is borrowed, focusing on the little woman side of Jane Austen. However, from a complete perspective, Jane Austen's best emotional entanglements and coincidences have been concretely restored. What I am afraid of is that everyone has his own interests, but a simple little woman's perspective and mood are not bad at all. From the grandiose utilitarianism in the rich areas to the crisis in the poor areas, Camilla Belle's unique ladylike temperament has achieved a smooth transition. The father's bankruptcy can still support his daughter's luxurious life for a long time, and the plot of the illegitimate child giving the house to outsiders when decorating the house is also covered up under the immature but extremely beautiful performance of handsome men and beautiful women. The whole movie is full of "Disney" flavor from beginning to end, with love scenes, but no dew point and swearing. Except for the "evil wife" in Facebook, almost all the characters are "perfect". For example, the repairman who was originally regarded as a street thug turned out to be an "artist" in "The Man Show" in private; The lawyer who has mixed up a place actually represents the poor against the big company for love, and only said two sentences and won! From a rational point of view, this plot with obvious traces of college students' creation is 100% whitewashed, but from a film point of view, it has become a simple and almost lost beauty.

Just like the traditional concept that Mexican immigrants pay attention to family expressed in the film, we don't need to change our yearning for good things because of the deterioration of external conditions or secular prejudice. So at the end of the film, we should smile when the lawyer bought a pink house for his sweetheart as a firm. As an audience, why be too realistic?
