"Once Upon a Time": just to wear to wear



To sum up in one sentence "Once Upon a Time Season 2 DVD" is difficult, because the classic fairy tale nine into nine "they live happily ever after" ended, and this new play, but in this sentence the Prelude: Snow White was a prince's kiss back, but in the wedding by the later curse. So they put their daughter Elmar cross back to the real world.

You also can understand so, "crossing" was banned in China but also in the other side of the ocean fire up, prince charming and Snow White's daughter Elmar as "Xi" or "riverside" nothingness, a part of her is not a fairy tale, but became the hero of the story, but they never he pursued this point is in part because she is not known to the fairy tale, but can be any of a fairy tale classic role in introducing, snow white, Prince, the talking cricket, Cinderella, good at using magic gnome fairy...... As long as it does not cut, characters in fairy tales will be written to a beat all name dragged into the story.

Writer and producer Adam Horowitz and Edward Ketesis again took out the way they in the hit series "lost" in the structure of the story: multi temporal multi cue structure complex, almost every character has a fairy tale world and the real world through double: Elmar is a lonely bail bondsman. In the real world, and was abandoned by her the son is the father in the fairy tale world, after Wu in the real world is her son's mother...... Enough is enough, just look at this section will have enough confusion to?

This with our familiar fairy tale, for example from the see snow white is not one thing. And the imagination is the fairy tale characters is thin and dull, from the children's perspective, they can only understand that the princess is beautiful, the prince was brave, witch is evil, and everyone behind the story, causes of their behavior is never explained, and why they will become like this? Could not find the answer from the classical fairy tales. Recently watched the movie "Little Red Riding Hood" is because the audacious and become a joke and failed attempts, a symbol of justice with the Little Red Riding Hood wrestling is not evil wolf, but the boundaries of good and evil is unknown. In contrast, "Once Upon a Time" adaptation to more acceptable because each character has be perfectly logical and reasonable background and plenty of scenes, even after the full the villains are not rigid profiling.

In fact, the why? Nothing more than the role of driving and driven to place the plot, the single narrative tale text into a watch strong play is nothing but let characters complicated and let the plot twist, the latter often is the result of the former. "What do you think is the fairy tale? These stories is the way to deal with the real world we." This is an important part of the play, no text classic fairy tales in the Elmar become a perspective, with us through the fairy cloak into human kernel, while the domestic wear the Shaoxing opera "Xi" and "riverside" are the protagonists, but could not become the main line, even if they do not belong to history, but natural should become a mirror of history, as we look at the past era of eyes. Just "Xi" eyesight is very poor, but the "riverside" simply become the magic mirror. This type of wear the Shaoxing opera ugly lies, to prolong the time alive narrative also did not let those history and the presence or absence of people living together, but a puppet is embedded in the history of.

Excellent Once Upon a Time "recognized" the story has been told, but two producers still think his drama "character driven", as the story unfolds, there will be more unbelievable classic characters were written into play, promote the development of the story. Can't say plot driven and the role of driving which is better, because the two kinds of the propulsion mode is both movies have unfinished, but if these two driving a are not in place, even a story about do not understand the drama isn't necessarily good play, like most Chinese TV dramas, may be only a "sensational drive drive" and "really nothing doing spend in front of the TV is also a way of existence".
