It makes perfect sense why亲爱的埃文·汉森was selected to open the 2021 Toronto International Film Festival, on paper. It is the big-screen adaptation of the massively popular Tony-winning musical of the same name, and is a super emotional crowd-pleaser. Plus, with the star power of Amy Adams, Julianne Moore, and Amandla Stenberg joining the original Evan Hansen, Ben Platt, in the mix, it makes for an ode to community in the face of loneliness at the perfect time, as we all tiptoe back into theatres. And it’s a great star-packed first red carpet premiere for TIFF, the first with in-person interviews since 2019.

是的，它充满了鼓掌，和Ben最大的欢呼声。但是自从五月份发行预告片以来，这部电影已成为本现实生活中的模因目标（27），以及如何成为模因（27）he’s playing a 17-year-old。当然，这远非好莱坞的新故事 - 我们都记得安德里亚·扎克曼（Andrea Zuckerman）Beverly Hills 90210,或Stockard Channing玩RizzoGrease在33或34-但在嘲笑这种铸造练习方面有一个新的兴趣亲爱的埃文·汉森。

几周前看电影的电影出版社之后，没有比本·普拉特（Ben Platt），年龄等等在电影中扮演这个角色更好的人。但是，一些批评家在线将他们的刀子放在电影中，并将其用作一拳，而另一些则在挑选其心理健康的描绘。这与昨晚电影的首映式保持一致，一些评论家讨厌它。为截止日期写作，瓦莱丽复合物称其为“难以理解的问题作品，通过强迫他们对自己的精神疾病被剥削的病理性骗子感到同情，从而操纵观众。”其他人，例如史蒂夫·庞德不可能抵抗。”显然，人群也喜欢它。

然后是烂番茄编辑杰奎琳·科利（Jacqueline Coley）的推文：

随着评论家的分裂，随着热情的观众接待，随着新闻巡回演出的继续观看电影的轨迹将很有趣。它使我想起了批评者之间的脱节最伟大的表演者（例如，是PT Barnum的一维肖像）及其忠实的粉丝追随者，而Sleeper的成功。这两个音乐剧还拥有Pasek＆Paul的歌曲创作团队。但是，两部电影是否仍然非常非常，非常非常观看，具有惊人的配乐？绝对地。

However, backlash has surrounded亲爱的埃文·汉森for years. Four years ago, I wrote about Ben Platt winning the Tony for Best Leading Actor in a Musical, and how he was a “lock” to win in spite of his character’s controversial and possibly“令人毛骨悚然的”动机。在亲爱的埃文·汉森，他扮演一位令人着迷的高中生，他的白人谎言是自杀（Colton Ryan）死后的同学死亡，这使他突然受到了人们的欢迎，并与他的迷恋一起浪漫（Kaitlyn Dever，智能预定)。他很快就和他的同学的grievin债券g mother (Amy Adams) and stepdad (Danny Pino) as well, and lines quickly blur, in spite of his mother Heidi’s (Julianne Moore) unwavering support and encouragement.

Personally, I was pleasantly surprised by how moved I was by the film. I讨厌音乐剧的第二幕，但喜欢歌曲。这部电影是由史蒂文·列文森（Steven Levenson）的托尼（Tony）赢得作家改编成屏幕的，似乎通过使它的故事不再是关于“救赎”的故事，而是关于宽恕和联系的更多故事。这使我激动，并以我完全没有预料的方式给了我鸡皮ump。这部电影还明智地扩展了Amandla的角色Alana，并为他们提供了自己的歌曲“ The Anonymous歌曲”（他们为电影共同创作），这为Evan的社会接受动机提供了附加的价值和背景。另外，朱利安·摩尔（Julianne Moore）和艾米·亚当斯（Amy Adams）的表演以如此多的人性为基础，很难不感受到他们对屏幕儿子的热爱。尽管当涉及到精神疾病和支持的方法时，它也过于简化，但它也避免了治疗正常化的方式，以及我们如何对那些在抑郁症和焦虑中挣扎的人更加富有同情心和理解。有时将其称为俗气，但这很有效。

电影中的所有歌曲都是现场录制的，是的，朱利安·摩尔（Julianne Moore）也在电影音乐剧中的第一个“真实”时光唱木兰和大勒博夫斯基。

Prior to the second screening at Roy Thomson Hall, the cast was so happy about being chosen as the opening night entry for the festival. Everybody was very gracious and in great spirits at the premiere yesterday, and they brought the fashion too (Julianne in Celine, Amandla in Gucci, Ben Platt in head-to-toe Louis Vuitton [the lime green soles on his shoes were a very fun touch]). And on the red carpet, Ben Platt told etalk’s Danielle Graham that seeing his work, and this character that means so much to him up on the big screen is a “real privilege.”

“I just feel really, really lucky that I got to finish this journey and be the one to preserve the character that I love so much,” said Ben. “The fact that huge audiences of people get to see the story now feels like an embarrassment of riches.”

有了热情的粉丝和坚定的捍卫者以及非常声音的批评家，这几乎可以肯定是一部电影，使我们在接下来的几个月中说话。戛纳电影节和威尼斯电影节可能使魅力恢复到红地毯上，但是选择亲爱的埃文·汉森，TIFF has given us a movie to debate over that brings all the feels and fires us up online, for better or for worse.
