Chapter 431: Men and Women in the Cinema
After getting up and leaving the restaurant, Xu Qingya said softly, "I don't want to go back yet." Uncle, I feel so uncomfortable when I think that a girl of the same age will have to face the end of her life. She must have a lot more to experience and pursue. But she didn't have a chance. ”
Du Caige nodded: "Yes." ”
Originally, he had a lot of feelings, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say it.
Although his life experience is richer than Xu Qingya's, his inner world is really not necessarily as sensitive as Xu Qingya.
What he thought of, maybe Xu Qingya had already thought of it.
"It turns out that the purple and red are blooming all over the ...... Like this, it is all paid to the broken well......" Ignoring the side glances of the people around her, Xu Qingya opened her mouth and sang softly.
This time, perhaps because of such an incident, she has a new sense of life and life, and she sings with subtle differences from before, and the feelings contained are more delicate.
"Uncle, accompany me to a movie, watch a comedy, the kind that wants to laugh from beginning to end. ”
"Okay. ”
They came to the cinema and were told that there was a work directed by Liao Leijun that was being released.
Director Liao Leijun is a first-line director, and compared with Shu Yihuan's super-first-class director, he is only slightly lower.
For example, if Shu Yihuan is equivalent to Zhang Yimou and Feng Gangcang-level directors, almost everyone in China knows and knows about it.
That Liao Leijun is almost equivalent to directors of the level of Zhou Xingye (director Xingye, non-actor Xingye) and Guan Hu.
Maybe you haven't watched his movies seriously, but at least at some point, you've seen videos edited from clips from his films, or watched the introduction of his films on TV shows, or seen discussions about his films on the Internet.
Liao Leijun is good at comedy, and his movies are usually released during the Spring Festival and summer vacations, but I don't know why this time it was placed in November when grandpa doesn't hurt and grandma doesn't love.
Buy a ticket to enter, and one of them has just opened two or three minutes.
bought popcorn and milk tea, cut the ticket and entered the theater.
It was dark inside, Du Caige glanced at it, and about half of the seats were occupied by the audience.
Although it's the weekend, the movie has been in theaters for a while, and with such an attendance, it's really good.
When I bought tickets at the front desk before, Du Caige also paid attention to it, and the scheduling rate of this movie is still high, which shows that the box office and attendance rate have been very strong.
As he was distracted, a small soft hand slipped into his palm and led him to the seat they had bought.
Du Caige was ignorant at first, but after he reacted, his heart jumped a few times.
Xu Qingya's little hands can be said to be soft and boneless, cool and dry.
In some cases, when describing a girl's hair, they will say "like mutton fat and white jade".
In fact, a girl's hands can't be so tender.
Unless it is a lady from an ancient super aristocratic family, it is possible to raise such a hand if the door is not out of the door, and even a girl who does not do female red handicrafts.
Modern girls, although they don't have to go to the field to farm, but they have to write, do housework, and use various tools in their daily lives, and it is impossible to maintain them so well.
However, Xu Qingya's hands are really tender.
Much more tender than Duan Xiaochen.
After all, it's young. Youth is invincible.
Thinking of Duan Xiaochen, Du Caige suddenly hesitated. Doesn't seem like this yourself, right?
But through the faint light of the movie screen, I saw Xu Qingya's side face, but I saw that the little girl was very calm and seriously looking for a seat.
Well, in fact, holding hands is nothing, and kindergarten children often hold hands.
In social situations, it is normal for male and female celebrities to hold hands and hold hands, right.
This is quite normal and not worth the fuss.
Du Caige nodded, was led by Xu Qingya with peace of mind, and found a seat.
What reassured him even more was that after sitting down, Xu Qingya withdrew her hand.
Well, the little girl's heart is beautiful, and she does not linger in the private relationship between men and women, which is very good.
In the movie theater, the lights are dark, because I am afraid of the dark, because I can't see the road and worry about falling, so I hold my hand, which is normal.
Nothing to fuss about.
Once you sit down, you can watch a movie in peace.
Du Caige has a habit of not doing anything else when watching movies.
Even if it's a terrible movie, you can think about why it was made so badly, or think about whether there is a problem with the editing when all the shots are good but the combination is a mess.
In short, even if you watch a low-scoring movie full of problems, you can still learn something.
And this comedy "Baby Plan" directed by Liao Leijun is by no means a bad movie.
The laughter is relatively dense, and there is laughter or a knowing laugh in the theater almost every minute.
The plot of the movie is also very smooth, without pretending to be profound, and it can be easily understood by ordinary adults.
The character portrayal is not intense, but it can be remembered.
Xu Qingya was drinking milk tea and occasionally eating popcorn next to her, laughing like silver bells from time to time.
Du Caige was also fascinated, for him, he was not only appreciating a story, but also learning from a director who was above him and had a higher skill level than him.
Du Caige is the youngest billion club director on earth, and it can only be said that he has a lot of potential.
He is not a big director, just a cutting-edge director with a strong upward momentum.
Although the total box office of all the works directed by Liao Leijun is only one billion, considering the difference in age and purchasing power, his box office of more than one billion yuan is at least equivalent to the box office of four or five billion movies at Du Caige's time.
Of course, if Du Caige had been given another five or six years at that time, a few years later, and two or three movies with big investment, maybe he would have been able to reach this Liao Leijun level.
No, it can definitely be achieved.
He had that faith.
Du Caige's entire focus is on the movie.
Xu Qingya watched the movie for a while, but her eyes fell on Du Caige's side face.
The light and darkness shone on his handsome face, and the sense of space and changing shadows created a very special visual effect.
And his serious appearance of full attention is also expected to be good-looking.
It can make 90% of the world's spring girls feel excited.
When Xu Qingya used to watch romance, she read it more than once, saying that the best time for a man is when he is serious about doing things.
Even a man with a mediocre appearance looks extremely handsome when he is working hard.
For the uncle, watching movies is not for leisure and entertainment, but for his career and dream.
That's why he's so serious and ...... at this time It's handsome.
Xu Qingya suddenly felt a little fever on her face, and her breathing was a little short.
Fortunately, the uncle was watching the movie intently and didn't notice it.
Even if he were aware of it, it would be difficult for him to realize anything.
After all, Uncle is a fool.
Xu Qingya smiled slightly and continued to enjoy the movie.
When he saw the end, Du Caige let out a slight sigh of regret.
He felt that the movie was good at the beginning, but when it ended at the end, the idea did not stand up.
So it became a simple comedy film and popcorn movie, and failed to sublimate it.
It's a pity.
In this movie, if you want to make a comparison, Du Caige will use the analogy of "Charlotte's troubles".
The plot and story structure are different, but they are all funny.
There is also a male protagonist full of joy, and there are also some ridiculous stories.
There is also a plot where the male protagonist forgets his original intention and loses himself.
The same ...... At the end, it failed to sublimate, leaving regrets.
If Du Caige is asked to rate it, out of 10 points, he will give the two movies a similar score: 7 points.
Of course, in the entire film market, a score of 7 is good enough.
At least it can sweep hundreds of millions, or even billions of box office.
It's a pity...... If you can sublimate it at the end, it can make people more impressive, and the score can be 0.5 points higher.
It can evolve from a "popcorn movie that makes people laugh and forget" to "a classic movie in some ways".
It's like that Charlotte Troubles.
As a comedy movie, number one, it makes people laugh. Second, it makes people laugh and think about something. Third, when you think, there will be some things that make people think about it and be extremely frightened, and some sad reality will permeate.
So many viewers feel that Charlotte's troubles can be regarded as half a classic.
Why is it a classic?
As a drama that has been polished for several years, it has been put on the big screen, and all kinds of jokes and rhythms of this movie, including many golden sentences, have been tested for a long time and have been recognized by the audience.
Why do you say it's half? Because after all, it's a little less sublimated.
Charlotte's troubles are sublimated at the end of the film.
In the plot, Charlotte discovers that Qiu Ya is cheating, he has AIDS, betrays his relatives, and waits for death in the hospital bed.
At that time, his state of mind changed dramatically.
Here, if done well, it can make the film appear sublimated.
But it's a pity that after returning to the "now" and finding that the time travel was just a dream, for the sake of funny effect, the director portrayed Charlotte as a giant baby who clings to his wife every day......
The comedy effect is out, but unfortunately the opportunity for the sublimation of the film is gone.
Of course, some critics believe that in the final ending, Ma Dongmei symbolizes reality, and Charlotte sticks to Ma Dongmei all the time, reflecting that he begins to accept reality and embrace reality, and is no longer the middle-aged man who is lonely and escaping from reality.
But how to say it, what the director wants to express is never important.
It doesn't matter what the critics see.
The important thing is what most of the audience felt from this movie.
After watching Charlotte's troubles, most of the audience was not satisfied with the ending.
Of course, you can say, "Not in this audience."
"I filmed very well, but it was too advanced, and with the current cultural level of the audience, I can't appreciate it. ”
So be it.
At least for Du Caige, if his movies are not liked by the audience, the first thing he has to consider is whether there is a problem with his own thinking, whether there is a gap between his aesthetics and the audience, rather than complaining that "this audience is not good".
