Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com

His name is LeWine Davis.

He is a lonely and unknown folk singer. He spent the night curled up on the sofa at the home of his friend, Professor Grofiens. In the midst of boredom, his only interest is to open the black paper on his friend's bookshelf. The vinyl record was put on the gramophone and started to play; when he left, the big yellow cat at a friend's house slipped out in a blink of an eye because the door was not closed in time.

In a panic, he tried to chase the big yellow cat; but just after the backpack and guitar were put down, there was the sound of the door lock automatically locking behind him, and his movements suddenly froze in place, only then did he realize, I don't have a key myself.

Picking up the big yellow cat that didn't go far, he tried to entrust the apartment manager who was in charge of the elevator, but the other party refused his request on the grounds of "I need to run the elevator"; then downstairs through the pay phone He called Professor Grofiens' office, but he couldn't get in touch with the other party. In desperation, he could only hug the big yellow cat and the guitar case, and hurriedly got on the subway amid the busy crowd. Traveling underground in New York, heading towards Greenwich Village.

After a little carelessness, the big yellow cat slipped out of his hands again, and he had to quickly chase him in the crowd. The only luck was that the subway car was closed, and he managed to catch it again. Active guy; then rushed to another friend's house, but they were not at home, he had to ask the occupants on the first floor to allow him to borrow a fire escape, enter the friend's house, and then leave the big yellow cat, and Left a plate of milk.

It's a montage of LeVine's first official appearance.

The melodious and moving choices are constantly revolving in the ears, perfectly combined with the camera, the story, and the atmosphere. It seems that even the lyrics and musical symbols have become part of the movie. Emily always feels that the singing is very familiar and full of sound. After a few beats, she recalled--

The vinyl record that LeVine found on Professor Grofiens's bookshelf was called "Timlyn and Davis", it was a folk performance duo, and on the cover photo, it was LeVey. En and another unfamiliar face, it looks like... Marcus Mumford of The Blessed Sons in real life.

The camera gave a close-up reminder, but it flashed by and quickly disappeared.

Looking back now, Emily suddenly realizes that the soundtrack and the story are two things that are connected to each other. The flowing shots and the melody are intertwined with each other, depicting New York in the 1960s, retro and chaotic, rushed The crowded, lonely and indifferent, slowly infiltrated the atmosphere of the whole film.

So, what information did she miss in the ten-minute opening scene?

Emily straightened her back quietly, and her deep interest began to roll over gradually. This work should be worth chewing over and over again. Before the first viewing of the movie was over, she had already begun to look forward to the in-depth study of the second viewing; however, now is not the time, and the most important thing at the moment is to concentrate and devote yourself to this movie.

Le Verne visited his record label.

Once, LeVine Davis and Mike Timlin were a performance duo and they were not well known; now, LeVine Davis is a solo singer and he is still not famous. The sales results of the new album "Cincinnati" are not satisfactory. He can't get the advance payment for the new album, but he can't get the royalties of the previous albums. Winter is coming, and he doesn't even have a jacket.

The owner of the record company showed his pity and sympathy, and kindly presented his winter coat to LeVine, but LeVien didn't buy it at all, and said generously and thunderously that this was the other party's hypocritical sympathy, but it was just a show That's all, it seriously hurt the good intentions of the record company boss.

The audience in the Lumiere Hall let out low breathing sounds, as if they could not agree with Le Verne's approach.

Immediately, the situation turned around.

The record company boss yelled and told Levine to get out; Levine was stunned for a while, without any hesitation, he got up obediently and prepared to get out of the way, and at the same time he was going to take his jacket; bought his own coat, and finally gave LeVine forty dollars in exchange.

The audience was stunned.

Emily chuckled with a snort, and this is the Coen brothers' cold humor -- or black-bellied humor, which can always inadvertently and unexpectedly produce the effect of making people laugh and cry.

LeVine is back at the home of friends Jim and Jane.

He was greeted by an angry Jane, and Troy Nelson, who was sitting comfortably in a rocking chair with his big yellow cat in his arms.

Jane expressed strong anger at LeVine's self-inflicted decision to keep the big yellow cat behind, aggressively targeting LeVine; she said she and Jim had agreed that Troy would sleep on their couch tonight On - Troy is an active duty soldier and a folk singer who will be performing at the Gaslamp Cafe tonight, so LeVine can't stay unless LeVine is willing to sleep on the couch.

LeWine tried to explain the situation, but Jane never gave him a clear window; LeWine was concerned about Troy's performance, and there was an indescribable confusion in his eyes.

Jane's impatience, Troy's free and easy, and Levine's wave/swing formed a sharp contrast, dashing left and right in the narrow space, and the huge amount of information was vented down, and then Jane picked it up angrily. Post-it notes, while venting displeasure at LeVine, while

He wrote a line, and then handed the note to LeVine.

"I am pregnant."

This is the information on the sticky note, and the small smile at the corner of Levine's mouth suddenly solidified, and he blurted out, "What the hell?"

Jane looked at Levine quietly, raised her eyebrows slightly, those sharp and sharp eyes, pierced through the screen, and looked directly into the eyes of every audience member.

Emily's eyes widened quietly, not because the plot was too bloody and cliché, but because the characters and their relationships were sketched out bit by bit in the flowing narrative, she couldn't help but want it. Applause for the Coen brothers, that natural sense of flow, answering questions while laying foreshadowing, and at the same time ensuring the progress of the story, making movie watching a pleasure.

The next scene is undoubtedly Emily's personal favorite part.

After the post-it note incident, Troy stepped onto the stage of the Gaslight Cafe to perform, and LeVine and Jane, who were sitting under the stage, were separated from each other, and then Jane's husband, Jim, arrived at the cafe, in the middle. Take a seat.

Levine frowned and asked Jim, how was the performance?

Jim said "great", but LeVine shook his head repeatedly, expressing his dissatisfaction and rejection, and their discussion sparked protests from the rest of the audience. This means...the audience and Jim are on the same page, and LeVine is the only outlier in the audience.

Anxious Jane left, ready to go to the bar for a drink.

Watching Jane leave, Le Verne lowered her voice and pondered her words, hoping that Jim could borrow a little money from him, "I will repay it soon, in conjunction with the last loan. A girl I know has a small amount of money. A problem that needs to be solved.”

"Again?" This was Jim's first reaction.

But Levine quickly explained, "It's not the same." Under Jim's surprised eyes, Levine quickly added, "Don't tell Jane."

"If I don't tell Jane, I can't get the money." Jim replied helplessly. Levine shook his head repeatedly, indicating that he would think of other ways.

"Bastard!" This is not the voice from the movie, but the voice of a girl behind Emily, who shouted in a low voice, without disturbing the emotions of other audience members, but Emily couldn't help but chuckle. Get up, but that's not all.

Troy, who was standing on the stage, ended his performance and continued, "There is a special audience member in the audience today, maybe he can come out and help me a little bit."

Le Verne seemed to recall the admiration and admiration Troy expressed to him at Jim and Jane's house in the afternoon, with a helpless and annoyed expression of disgust, shaking his head gently to express his rejection, "I didn't bring mine. Guitar."

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's welcome Jim and Jane!" came Troy's voice.

All the audience in the Lumiere Hall collectively burst into laughter, especially when they saw the expression on Le Verne's face that paused for a while, disappointment and loneliness slowly seeped out from the brows, which became more and more meaningful. But the real finishing touch comes in the next shot:

LeVern joined the audience and applauded in welcome, but his eyes were silently fixed on the stage, pausing for a moment, maybe just a second, then lowered his eyes to hide the fleeting moment of his eyes. of light. He picked up the cigarette on the table.

A look, an action, and the emotions revealed by body language fill the camera.

The light and melodious, moving and fresh melody flows slowly, different from Le Verne's sadness and loneliness, bitterness and grief, the graceful musical symbols reveal a graceful and warm, "Five Hundred Miles", leading the way. All the audience savoured the taste of nostalgia.

Quietly, Levine just sat there quietly, letting the curling cigarette burn at his fingertips, his eyes fell on Jane's body without moving, staring at the petite figure under the spotlight, his eyes were so slow. Slowly, slowly and gently, you can even catch a faint light flowing slowly in the depths of the eyes, full of tenderness and affection.

Suddenly, Emily's eyes became wet, and she saw Le Verne converge her sharp edges and thorns little by little, showing the deepest softness in her heart.

He loves her.

She hummed softly, "Unclothed and penniless, Lord, I can't just go home."
