Chapter 90: This director has no heart

Tornatore was fond of putting movies in the plot and then putting them into the plot, and the pinnacle was Cinema Paradiso, which has been called the most beautiful ending in the history of cinema.

And "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" has a similar technique, Reinado watches the movie and struggles internally, at this time the black and white movie on the screen directly becomes Reinado's fantasy, he is the male protagonist wearing a black suit and looks like an adult, and the female protagonist is Marlena.

It is worth noting that Reinado fantasized about himself and Malena's play, and he slapped Marlena.

This scene is so cool, not only does it make it clear that Reinado also has a desire to dominate Marlena, but also uses the environment without saying a word, so that the audience can feel Reinado's mood at this time, and the most important thing is that this kind of performance is very consistent with the environment and is not abrupt at all. ”

It was not only Odya who was shocked by this scene, but all the film critics present, and even the director, were amazed.

If this scene is watched by fans, it will only feel a little interesting, and even a little funny, but as a director, what Odia's pursuit is to use the lens language to express what he wants to express, so that the audience can understand it.

filmed Reinado's fantasy before, this time it is a black and white movie, and the technique is really wonderful.

"This Chinese director's lens language is outstanding. Although he only saw 25 minutes, Odya also thought that the film was completely sufficient as an opening film.

Reinado, who was still not at ease, came to the strange hut again, climbed the railing, and saw the man's appearance clearly, only to find that the man was only Marlena's father, and this strange house was Marlena's father's home, and Reinado was relieved.

It's another black-and-white film fantasy, Reinado imagines himself as Tarzan of the Apes, imagines himself as a cowboy from the West, imagines himself as an Egyptian villain, and without exception Marlena is there.

The right hand means it's too hard.

The plot ushered in a big change, news came from the front line, Marlena's husband died, Marlena was grief-stricken, but when people heard the news, they reacted: My husband is dead, and we can pursue Marlena.

There were even people who laughed and applauded.

The people in the exhibition hall felt the ugliness of human nature when they saw this scene, but soon the director used another plot to show a straightforward point.

Reinado, worried about Marlena, came to Marlena's house and saw her lying sadly on the bed, wearing a short black knee-length skirt, crying.

uses an idiom to describe Marlena - "jade body Hengchen", which is too consistent, especially the black silk buttocks, Valentina's figure, not to mention that for men, for the same sex, there is also a fatal attraction.

"This long shot, my God, what is this director doing?"

The Italians have a lot of hand movements, and Odiaa is no exception, at this time he made two hand strokes out of thin air.

His reaction was to tell the audience very bluntly, don't think the people in the film are evil, because "you" are so, Marlena is so pitiful, but you will also be lusted by her sexual gratitude.

"It's not wrong to be beautiful, but it's wrong to be so beautiful and moving, because it's the human heart. Odya had a hunch that a film with such a bright tone would be a complete tragedy.

Reinado looked at the sad Marlena and wanted to go over and comfort her, even imagining himself walking over, but he didn't stop at imagining.

At the funeral, Marlena dressed as a virgin, her eyes lowered and tears fell.

People lit candles in front of them to help pray, and behind their backs they were discussing who was interesting to Marlena, and the dentist might be "filling in the holes" at the dentist's office.

Reinado didn't dare to go up to Marlena to comfort her, but she made some effort behind her back.

Hearing that someone was maliciously speculating about Marlena behind her back, she spat in it while handing out the milk, smashed the glass of Marlena's shop, prayed in front of the Holy Father, and lit a candle every day if Our Lady could bless Marlena.

Immediately, Reinaldo saw Marlena's clothes hanging outside and stole a piece of underwear, which was discovered by his parents.

Compared to the previous slower pace, since the death of Marlena's husband, it has been like a wild horse, and when Reinado peeped at Marlena again, he found that Marlena was dating the lieutenant.

This lieutenant, tall and handsome.

After the lieutenant leaves, he actually meets a man who claims to be Marlena's fiancé, the man is a dentist, the lieutenant and the dentist scuffle, and the dentist's wife finds out.

Instead of blaming her husband, the wife took Marlena to court, accusing her of seducing her husband.

It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the important thing is that the whole village believes it.

Marlena is so beautiful, Marlena is still a widow, Marlena must be a slut in person, and even Marina's father is closed to Marlena.

"It's so uncomfortable. "Odya feels depressed, and his film "Betty" is also a film similar to the torture of human nature, but his film is full of darkness from the beginning, and people know that this movie is not good when they see it.

But "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" is not only the main tone is bright and uplifting, but also inserts Italian-style comedy from time to time, like Reinado's father, who saw Reinaldo covering his face with intimate clothes, and then Reinado's father scolded and said: You fetish, you may still be a pervert......

Give the audience the feeling that they are watching a light comedy.

"The contrast is too great. "The most important thing is that I can't feel the director's deliberateness, many directors will deliberately manipulate in order to promote the development of the plot, and the result is that the plot is too embarrassing and the characters' motivations are unreasonable.

In Italy in World War II, seducing a married man was able to go to court, the key is that Marlena can't help but save her reputation, and the only way is to ask a pervert lawyer.

In court, Marlena stated that what the dentist said had nothing to do with her, and when the judge asked her what her relationship was with the lieutenant.

"Your Excellency, I am a widow, and my business with Lieutenant Cady has nothing to do with the law. ”

The judge immediately told Marlena a heartbreaking fact, because of a scuffle with the dentist, the lieutenant was transferred, and the former lieutenant was questioned by the lieutenant, who said that he had nothing to do with Marlena, but had only met twice.

True, the lieutenant hurriedly dissociated.

Marlena's eyes were blank, but the close-up scene flashed, but Odia felt that Marlena's heart was like ashes at this time.

"This actor should have very poor acting skills. "Odia, as a director, feels that the audience can't see it at all, because if you think about it carefully, there are only a handful of shots of Marlena's face, most of which are filming Marlena on the street, her figure, or the middle shot.

Being able to put an actor who is not very good at acting not only makes the audience unable to see it, but also makes the audience feel pity, this is the director's terrifying control.

In the courtroom, showing that Marlena's heart is like ashes is just a shot of the back of Marlena's head with her hair in a bun, and she bows her head slightly, which is enough to make people imagine.

Under the defense of the lawyer, Marlena was finally not guilty, but at this time, the lawyer asked Marlena for a high payment, and he naturally knew that Marlena couldn't take it, so he wanted Marlena to pay for it and **** Marlena.

This scene was seen by Reinado, he did not dare to go out to stop it, and also broke his hand because of his emotion, Reinado, who was angry, came to the church and smashed the arm of the statue of the Holy Father, he used to come to offer a candle every day, but the Holy Father did not protect Marlena as agreed.

The lustful lawyer seems to be strong first and then love, it seems that he really likes Marina, will give gifts and date, but the lawyer is a mother's boy, and what he does is decided by his mother.

To describe Ma Bao Nan in an Italian way, he has to bathe his mother every week when he is so old.

The lawyer's mother's exact words were: Never let this bitch lose your father's face.

In such a situation, the people in the town despise Marlena more and more, and treat her as a female branch girl who can be a husband, and any man wants to bite twice.

"Even if it's really a woman, who gave you the qualifications to be able to insult people on the street. "Odya was already completely drawn to the plot of the film.

The store was reluctant to sell anything to Marlena, so Marlena had to go to the black market merchants to buy small things, and no one was willing to give her a job.

Reinado is no longer willing to make fun of Marlena, and only wants to help Marlena, but even though he has passed by Marlena countless times, he still doesn't have the courage to say a word.

"The change from sex to heart, when I want to protect a person the most, I don't even dare to talk. Odya sighed, he didn't have such a profound experience when he was young, but now that he looks back, there is a sense of substitution.

"This director is too cruel. When the film critic next to him couldn't help but say this, it was even more cruel.

When the bombing of Sicily befell on Sicily, Marlena's only relative, her father, died in the bombing, and all the men in the town came to the funeral, in fact, they all came for Marlena.

That night, Marlena lit a candle and looked in the mirror, shedding strands of her long black hair.

Then Marlena received an officer who came with food, and yes, Marlena really became what people called a female branch girl in order to make a living, in order to survive.

Very good, the film critic who just said that the director was too cruel shut up, because I'm afraid that more cruel things are still to come, and this director has no heart.

The movie "Betty" brought by Odia is also about the process of an innocent girl slowly becoming bad.

But—

"This film is not a woman's journey from single-mindedness to change. Odya said, "It's about how she was forced to be like this." ”

In fact, there is really only one thought difference between the thoughts of master directors and ordinary directors, and ordinary directors shoot at this time, perhaps it means that Marlena has become a female branch girl, and people despise her even more.

The most reversed shots in the film, as well as those that are often quoted by various marketing accounts and short videos, are here.
