Chapter 578: A Literary Story
"Spring Breeze Sleepless Night" screening room!
Everyone is watching the movie, but in fact, when they see the title of literature and art, everyone can basically be sure that this is definitely a literary story.
The truth was as they expected.
In the first few minutes, the question has already been pointed.
In a remote town, Li Shu, who has a gentle temperament, runs a small shop on the verge of bankruptcy, and works hard every day to make a living.
One day, Lin Jiayu appeared in the town, he was a painter.
A painter who was impoverished.
Three meals are not enough, but he insists on his artistic creation. In his eyes, the dilapidated town is full of indescribable artistic beauty.
So he decided to stay and put the town in the painting.
For the inhabitants of the town, he is finally an outsider, and he does not do his business every day, and wanders around the town every day, looking around.
Everyone was wary of him and felt that he was not a good person.
No one wanted to come into contact with him, and he was not interested in making contact with the residents, so he wandered out of the crowd every day, out of place with everyone, lonely and depressed.
Ten minutes passed in the movie.
As the heroes and heroines of the movie, Lin Jiayu and Li Shu almost never spoke, and they didn't even make eye contact or contact.
It's like two strangers......
All right.
In the movie, the two are indeed strangers.
At most, he is a painter, and occasionally when he buys things in a small shop, Li Shu will look at him more and be very vigilant.
A literary film is a literary film, and the plot advances very slowly.
If it is a fast-paced commercial film that dares to shoot like this, it is estimated that the audience will be impatient for a long time, and they will either ask for a refund and leave, or simply close their eyes and go to sleep.
Of course, the slow plot tests the director's skills.
Anyway, some of the audience at the scene actually watched it with relish.
Because Sun Yuzhu is a well-known master of composition. The pictures, characters, scenes, and scenery of the film, including the dilapidated town, all have a special charm under her lens.
This kind of charm is not some film and television dramas, in order to show a "clean" picture, ten layers of filters are directly added, and beautification is also opened, so that the characters and scenery are illusory and completely distorted.
This is a kind of texture, a kind of beauty that makes business people amazed, ordinary people are pleasing to the eye, and it is very comfortable to look at.
It is worthy of the master's handwriting.
Some people lamented that Sun Yuzhu has not been in charge of the camera for several years, and he is still not old.
Speaking of which, she should be regarded as a powerful person in the industry, who can teach and guide. Because many directors rely on their own talent and comprehension when filming, but they don't know how to pass on their experience and perception to others.
Professors and teachers in film and television schools are theoretical. Asking them to make a movie is embarrassing them.
Sun Yuzhu teaches at the Film and Television Academy, and he can make high-quality movies when he goes out of the mountains.
This can be regarded as a "capable scholar and martial artist", a great expert in linking theory with practice.
It is no wonder that it is respected by many people.
......
On the screen, the plot of the movie gradually enters the theme.
The hero and heroine are parallel lines that have no intersection, but suddenly they intersect together.
Mainly one day, Li Shu felt that the business of small shops was becoming more and more difficult to do. She simply converted the warehouse behind the store into a room and rented it out.
Due to the low price, it attracted Lin Jiayu.
The two officially began their life of "living together". At the beginning, the two basically went out early and returned late, and there were not many opportunities to meet.
But when Lin Jiayu was almost done, he began to paint in earnest.
At this time, Li Shu knew that this guy who was "idle" and "not doing business" was actually a painter.
She stumbled by and found his paintings, which seemed good.
Although this painter looks poor, he is also a serious profession, which makes Li Shu feel a little more at ease and pay more attention.
The days passed.
One day, Lin Jiayu found her and asked her where she could do odd jobs.
The painter's money was spent, and there was no money to buy paints. He was going to do odd jobs for a few days, save enough money, and then continue painting.
Li Shu looked surprised, hesitated again and again, and decided to let Lin Jiayu help him pull the goods.
There are a lot of things in the store, and there is no supply in the town, so you need to ask someone to buy them from the county seat hundreds of miles away.
The transportation and fuel money along the way accounted for almost half of the profits. So the business of the small shop seems to be good, but it doesn't make much money.
After confirming that Lin Jiayu would drive, Li Shu decided to buy the goods herself. She borrowed a van and asked Lin Jiayu to take her to the county seat.
The journey went smoothly, but on the way back to pull the goods, the car broke down.
Two people can't fix it, and the rescue call can't get through.
Wilderness, sparsely populated highways. Even if there was an occasional car passing by, he didn't dare to stop easily, ignoring the sound of the two calling, and whistling by.
In desperation, the two had no choice but to pick up dry firewood and light a bonfire.
Lonely earth, bright starry sky.
The world is vast, and it seems that two people are so small.
After a long silence, the two finally began to chat. They opened their hearts and talked about their lives and each other's ideals.
Lin Jiayu wants to go to the metropolis and hold an exhibition of his works.
Li Shu wants to make more money and live an easier life.
The spring breeze is blowing, and the first sleepless night is over.
In the morning, a car was finally willing to stop, and helped the two of them drag the broken down car to a small town dozens of miles away for repairs.
The minor problem was quickly resolved, and the two returned to the town without any problems. Half of the time passed, and the hero and heroine could be regarded as a small spark.
This is a very hazy ambiguity between men and women. The two people have a good impression of each other, but no one takes the initiative to break through this line.
Soon after, Lin Jiayu's work was completed.
In addition, there is good news, his previous works, under the recommendation of his teacher, have been favored by a gallerist, who feels that he has potential and wants to sign a contract with him.
He was overjoyed, cooked a sumptuous dinner, told Li Shu the good news in the charming night, and then took the opportunity to confess to her.
He wants to leave here with Li Shu, leave this dilapidated town, go to the metropolis together, and start a new journey.
He didn't notice Li Shu's face and imagined his future life.
And then......
Li Shu rejected him.
He didn't understand the reason, and under the stunned look, Li Shu hurried away.
The spring breeze blows, and the second sleepless night.
The next day, Lin Jiayu went to Li Shu to get an answer. Li Shu didn't explain, but just took him to the hospital.
In the intensive care bed, he saw Li Shu's mother. A patient who has suffered a stroke and needs to be taken care of by Li Shu all the time.
In an instant, Lin Jiayu suddenly realized and figured out a lot of things.
No wonder, Li Shu often goes out and asks him to help take care of the business. No wonder the business of the small shop is obviously good, but Li Shu's life is so poor......
On the one hand, there is family affection, and on the other hand, there is love.
Lin Jiayu was at a loss.
Life is back to "normal".
Two people, one is a landlord and the other is a tenant, plain. Even if there is an intersection, they just nod slightly and pass by. It's like parallel lines, when they have an intersection, they move away from each other.
Finally, urged by the phone call, Lin Jiayu packed his things and prepared to leave the town and chase his dreams.
One night before leaving, Lin Jiayu called Li Shu out, drove into the wilderness, and lit a bonfire.
And then...... Grill.
Li Shu smiled.
The last time the car broke down, they stared at the fire and starved all night. She inadvertently mentioned that it would be a pity not to barbecue such a strong fire.
Lin Jiayu kept it in mind and helped her realize this wish.
Barbecue beer laughs.
The spring breeze blows, the third sleepless night.
But Lin Jiayu is gone after all. With his paintings, with his ideals, he left the remote town and never returned.
Li Shu doesn't know if he has succeeded or not, whether he has become a great painter.
Occasionally, I wonder what life would have been like if he hadn't left, or if I had left with him in desperation.
Sometimes, she thought about what a surprise it would be if Lin Jiayu, who left, suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
Pity......
There are no ifs.
Li Shu looked up at the sky.
A panoramic shot that encompasses the town.
The gray tone, the busy figure, like an ant, orderly and poor monotonous.
The movie ends, and the subtitles float up.
The crowd was silent for a moment, then clapped their hands softly.
Applause rang out.
A film critic took the opportunity to ask his companion, "How is the movie?"
"Expected. The companion replied, "Above the level." ”
"yes. ”
The critic nodded, understanding the subtext of his companion.
This is Sun Yuzhu's level, there are no surprises and no surprises. Of course, it will not pull the crotch, which can completely satisfy the aesthetic taste of petty bourgeois lovers.
Some experienced people have watched it and think that the plot is very realistic.
Perhaps, I poked their tears in the eyes and was deeply moved.
Besides......
Nope.
If you want to talk about ideology, if you want to talk about connotation or something, the movie has it, but it is very simple and has no in-depth meaning. However, in Li Shu, film critics also felt the perseverance and forbearance of traditional women.
Perhaps this is the reason why Sun Yuzhu is willing to take over this movie.
...... Wait.
The film critic had a flash of inspiration and asked his companion, "How many female judges are there at this year's Paradise Island Film Festival?"
"Ugh!"
The companion was stunned, "Who would deliberately count this...... But it should be a lot. ”
"And so much more. The film critic roughly calculated, "It's quite a lot, accounting for more than half of the proportion." Wow, the odds of winning this movie are high. ”
“...... Reasonable. ”
The companion is not stupid, and immediately understood, "The movie is not badly made, and the beautiful shots in it, as well as the emotions that are about to leave, are very exquisitely controlled." We don't feel anything, but maybe from a female point of view, this movie is very good......"
"yes. ”
Critics thought so. Because he also saw that after the end of the movie, the emotions of some female viewers seemed to be a little strange.
I don't know if I was moved or touched, anyway, a bunch of people walked towards Sun Yuzhu and thanked her for making such a good movie......
