La Chaise
Despite being a movie based on a Disney animated movie, "La Chaise, To Take A Mermaids Heart" offers viewers a more adult take on the magical underwater creature. While the effects on the Mermaid are not as realistic as in the movie, the message behind the film remains true to its time.
The film opens with King Louis XIV's (Pierce Brosnan) plan to capture and kill a Mermaid. He sends a group of fishermen to catch the elusive creature. However, the mermaid is only visible to believers and only appears to those who seek her out.
Louis arranges to have the heart of the Mermaid cut out during an eclipse. His physician, Labarthe (Pablo Schreiber), tells the king that he can become immortal if he follows the procedure. However, Labarthe is adamant about the procedure and refuses to change his mind.
Marie-Josephe (Kaya Scodelario) is the daughter of King Louis XIV. She has spent her life in a convent by the sea and is unaware that she is the King's daughter. She is also a rebellious free spirit who does not respect her father's rules as a teenager. As she becomes older, she finds herself in a predicament, pitting her ideals against her father's rule.
She meets a man named Yves (Benjamin Walker) who is willing to help her. Yves is the captain of a boat, and he leads a group of fishermen to capture the Mermaid. However, Labarthe shoots Yves and falls into the water. Yves then takes Marie-Josephe on a horseback ride to see the Mermaid.
The Mermaid, however, is only visible to a select few and only appears to those who seek her out. However, it is only for the king's purposes. When the Mermaid swims out, she enlists Yves to help her.
Although "La Chaise, To Take A Mermaids' Heart" offers viewers a more adult take on the magical underwater creature, the film falls into the uncanny valley. Its message remains true to its period, but its scenes are thrown together without any cohesion. Its characters are all too similar, and the chemistry between Yves and Fan Bingbing does not come through on the screen.
Marie-Josephe
'To Take A Mermaid's Heart' is based on a novel by Vonda N. McIntyre, "The Moon and the Sun", which was published in 1997. In "The Moon and the Sun", a young woman named Marie-Josephe has grown up in a strict convent. She has always had a love for the sea.
In this adaptation, Julie Andrews plays Marie-Josephe. As a child, she didn't respect the rules. She also wasn't sure of her true parentage. In this adaptation, Marie-Josephe is brought to the court of King Louis XIV of France.
Marie-Josephe has never met her father, but he has sent for her. Louis wants his daughter to marry the son of the richest merchant in France.
Upon arriving in Versailles, Marie-Josephe finds that she will have to choose between her desire to escape and her love for her King. She also has to decide whether or not she will sacrifice her ideals for the betterment of her country. Ultimately, she must decide whether to follow her heart and escape with the Mermaid or not.
'To Take a Mermaid's heart' begins in the French colony of Martinique, where Marie-Josephe has been raised. She has grown up in a convent, where she has been a rebellious free spirit. She is a talented, multi-talented young woman. She also has a strong telepathic connection with the Mermaid.
After a brief introduction to the story, the film focuses on the events that occur after the Mermaid arrives in France. Marie-Josephe becomes friends with the Mermaid, and the two develop a relationship. She also befriends Captain Yves, a Jesuit priest who has been working to capture the Mermaid for Louis XIV.
Marie-Josephe falls in love with Yves and decides to follow him. She is also shocked to find out that Yves is also in love with the Mermaid. They fall in love again. She has to decide whether or not she should follow her heart and escape with the Mermaid, or sacrifice her ideals for her King.
The story concludes with an optimistic line. While the story is not perfect, it does show a woman who is a strong, courageous stand against patriarchy.
Yuta
'Yuta Takes a Mermaids Heart' is a movie about a young man named Yuta, who travels to a remote village where old women live. There, he encounters several people who had some sort of contact with the mermaid. One of these people is Rika Orimoto.
This is not the first time that Yuta has met Rika. He met her when he was ten years old. When they got older, Rika started grabbing at his legs. Yuta realized that it was a curse.
When Rika died, Yuta was left with a ring. The ring was supposed to be an engagement ring. The ring turned out to be a ring for his birthday. The ring also possessed a special grade of a curse. The curse is called the Maelstrom Curse.
The ring is no more, but Yuta does find some other interesting things. He sees a four-winged pelican flying away from the gang. He also sees that the pelican is a member of a team headed to Tokyo and Shinjuku.
Yuta also finds out that there are 10,000 mysterious deaths in Japan, many of which are the result of curses. The best way to deal with these is to learn how to deal with them.
One thing that Yuta learns is that the most important thing is to befriend someone who has had contact with the mermaid. He also learns about the 'mirror' and the 'veil'. He also learns that there are weaker curses that are often grouped. The 'mirror' can be explained as an object that is the same shape as the real thing but with an extra layer of magic.
The 'veil' is actually a veil that is pulled down. The veil allows Yuta to see Rika's 'child form'. It also gives Rika's energy the power to overpower the Maelstrom Curse.
Yuta also learns that Rika's energy is not bound to him. She can be a powerful partner and help Yuta find a way to deal with the Maelstrom Curse.
'Yuta Takes a Mercmaids Heart' is a well-written and action-packed movie. It is also a good reminder that the power of love can be as powerful as any curse.
