Do you also agree with the following points about the soundtrack of this movie? I totally agree! =^6]N~*,D

　First, there is the common piano part. To be honest, the way the piano is presented in this film always reminds me of the famous film "Love Letter" by Japanese director Shunji Iwai. Both of them also use the piano as a bridge to connect various paragraphs of the film, allowing the audience to unknowingly complete the transition of the plot amidst the quietly flowing piano sound. Moreover, in some empty shots and dialogue-free scenes, the playing of the piano replaces the character's language and depicts the character's inner activities. In addition, since the film is a romantic comedy, the ridiculous behavior of the "sassy girlfriend" can be seen everywhere in the film. Therefore, the appearance of the piano has two functions: first, it eases the atmosphere of the film, adjusts the audience's emotions, and makes the rhythm of the film smooth and smooth, so that it does not become a tacky comedy; second, in the light and lively comedy In the background of the picture, there is a soft piano, which creates an auditory contrast for the audience, thereby enhancing the dramatic effect of the film. What is impressive is that on the 100th anniversary of the boy's acquaintance with his "sassy girlfriend", the boy received an order from his "sassy girlfriend" and came to her school with a rose. At this time, the "Sassy Girlfriend" was playing the piano on the stage in the school auditorium. The boy walked down the stairs to the sound of the piano. Under the influence of the peaceful and tender piano sound, he gradually removed his baseball cap, sunglasses, mask and other disguises and walked away. Get on stage. At the end of the song, he presented roses to his beloved girl. In this scene, the piano no longer appears as an off-screen background score. The counterpoint between music and painting in the real scene not only exaggerates the emotions, but also further deepens the relationship between the hero and heroine and promotes the development of the plot. &_ber ad

Secondly, there is the string section. Strings play an important role in the "memory theme" in the soundtrack of this film. From the beginning of the film, strings bring out the boy's memories of his "savage girlfriend" standing under the big tree on the top of the mountain, and then lead to A series of stories took place from the acquaintance, acquaintance, and love between him and his "sassy girlfriend" to their breakup, agreement, and so on. In the climactic scene in the second half of the film - when the "Sassy Girlfriend" stands under the big tree on the top of the mountain and apologizes loudly to the boy who was tricked into going to the opposite mountain, the strings in the background begin to pull up and down. Capturing the hearts of the audience, finally when "Sassy Girlfriend" burst into tears, the string music came like a raging tide, making the audience's noses sore. Those who were not determined would probably immediately join "Sassy Girlfriend" Tears streamed down my face. When the piano plays the lead and the strings appear as a subsidiary accompaniment, the strings vaguely present the theme of the film. A slightly sad memory-like emotion is expressed in the music, giving the piano an emotional outlet. , played a role in fueling the flames. In addition, the three-beat waltz soundtrack played by the accordion and jumping strings creates a childlike atmosphere like a merry-go-round in an amusement park. cdk;HK_Ve.

The third is the use of jazz. Jazz is a form that is rarely seen in other Japanese and Korean film and television soundtracks. In this film The most eye-catching highlight of this film is that it does not use avant-garde jazz genres such as fusion jazz and free jazz, but the most authentic and traditional old-school jazz. This may be because jazz was originally produced in the United States. A form of music that accompanies drinkers for fun in a tavern, which coincides with the light and humorous comedy atmosphere of the film. The New Orleans jazz piano trio that often appears in the film performs improvisationally. The bouncing beats are reminiscent of Louis Armstrong’s funny smiling face, while the syncopated cyclic themes and deformed phrases of the Ragtime jazz piano solo bring the comedy essence of the film together. When the drunken "sassy girlfriend" yelled at the boy aggressively in the pub, while the kind and cowardly boy mumbled submissively, the Bebop jazz music in the background was lively and full of syncopation. The notes fly in the rapid playing of piano, guitar, bass and drums, which perfectly sets off the weird scene between a man and a woman o+&/ N-t ;\YiOTda

Finally, what I want to talk about is. Popular songs. In recent years, the "Korean Wave" has become popular in Southeast Asia. Korean pop songs, as the backbone, are really indispensable. Naturally, this film will not give up this unique advantage. Diversified, including mainstream Korean songs with strong African American Hip-Hop and R&B styles like "Big Money", as well as medium and slow Korean songs in the style of Broadway musicals and the 1980s Wham! Band. . But the most eye-catching thing is "I Believe", which is repeated as the theme song of the film. The male voice's singing in the song is affectionate and touching, and the piano version of "I Believe" is also equally impressive. People reminisce.

In addition to these Korean songs, the movie soundtrack also includes two English songs, "Hand Of Time" that recalls the past, and "Another Life" that is melancholy. When pop songs are inserted into this film, the use of lens language always makes people feel like they are watching an MTV. I don’t know whether it’s because MTV is shooting more and more like movies, or whether movies are shooting more and more like MTV? g=b 'T-

On the whole, in the original soundtrack of "My Sassy Girl", the four musical parts are used in their own way. Position: Piano runs throughout the film, strings are used to stir emotions, jazz activates the atmosphere, and pop songs convey a fashionable and youthful atmosphere. And there is no conflict with each other, making the film's narrative style complete and unified, not messy. Perhaps the soundtrack of "My Sassy Girl" is not the best, but from the perspective of serving the film's image, it can still be considered a relatively successful soundtrack.
