Chapter 77: The Beautiful Legend of Sicily

“??”

Whenever Chu Shun put a question mark, it was not that he had a problem, but that something was wrong in front of him.

"The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" Chu Shun has certainly heard of it, Tornatore's masterpiece, which is not a classic.

And Tornatore has a time and space trilogy: "The Pianist of the Sea", "Cinema Paradiso", "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", one of them is enough to go down in history, but Tornatore has a hat trick.

In a remark, this kind of time and space trilogy and homecoming trilogy are called by film critics, yes, it is Chu Shun's group, and the director himself has never said that these three movies are related.

A classic is a classic, and Chu Shun has two question marks in his mind.

"This thing, how do I shoot it, localize it and then change it to find a small city, it's no problem to force it to be dragged in the background of the times, but that's unreasonable, the picture and artistic conception are completely gone, and some plots are not reasonable in China. ”

"And if it's localized, then I have to go to Syracuse to shoot, it's nothing, anyway, I don't need to think about the shooting budget, but I feel that I'm shooting this now, it's not suitable!"

Chu Shun's head was big in an instant, Tornatore is an Italian national treasure director, and his films reveal that his nostalgia for his hometown and love for Sicily are really not something that a foreigner can shoot.

"I have to think about it, the Legend of Sicily is a classic, but I have to think about it. "Chu Shun, as a director, actually wants to shoot.

Even if this movie hits the street at the box office, with a global box office of less than 15 million, you stand up and ask, who doesn't want to make a time and space trilogy for a director who is a little bit of a pursuit of art?

The system has come up with an idea: [The host can go to the location and stay for a while.] ]

"What's the use of staying for a while, that's Tornatore's hometown, where people grew up, the feelings expressed, and the feelings that feel completely different, I live - etc. Chu Shun suddenly came back to his senses a little.

"If ......"

"I said if ......"

"If I live in Sicily for a while, I can shoot the beauty that all Italian directors can't capture, wouldn't that be great?"

The reason why Tornatore is an Italian national treasure director is not only because of his achievements in film art, but also because the Sicily under his lens is the most beautiful, even if the movie is a tragedy, you will be amazed by the beauty of Sicily after watching it.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this idea was so beautiful, and that art was the last thing that could be measured by time.

"It's you. Chu Shun praised the system, and he went to Sicily to shoot it, and this movie can also be used as the beginning of his big goal "Scars of Other Countries" series.

"The Beautiful Legend of Sicily" is a bit anti-war, when Chu Shun was teaching himself the language of the camera in his previous life, this movie was often turned out and studied, especially when he couldn't sleep at night.

Chu Shun was quite sorry for Tornatore at the time, and at the Golden Bear Award in 01, he met Xia Hou, a professional director who won the award, and unfortunately lost.

Regarding the director Patrice Xiahou, you don't care how well-known they are in China, you can shoot a movie that the jury likes anyway.

"This film is a good fit for the Berlin Film Festival. Chu Shun recalled the memories of the original owner, recalling this world, there are six Chinese nationals who have won the Golden Bear Award, and there are only five on the earth, although Li An has won it twice.

"No, let's go straight to the Palme d'Or in Cannes, there is no Chinese director in the world who has won the Palme d'Or. Chu Shun really thought far enough and began to think about the film festival.

I don't know how long I thought about it, but Chu Shun, who came back to his senses, remembered the second question, where did he go to find the goddess Monica?

After watching "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily", 90% of people will be amazed by Marlena played by Monica, the key person's appearance is a true sense of both Chinese and Western, and both Chinese and Western aesthetics are mastered.

Another foreign sister who Chu Shun feels this way is Sophie Marceau, as for the Czech sister he knows, it is definitely not good, Zhang Tang is beautiful, but not so beautiful that he crosses races.

Chu Shun fell into contemplation and began, one person counted the short, and the other counted the chief and called Brother Blow.

"Brother Blow, I want to find an actor, you think about it together. Chu Shun got straight to the point in his mobile phone.

"Going to make a new film?" Brother Blowing said, obviously he hadn't decided on it at lunchtime, and he changed his mind in the afternoon, but after thinking about it, when will there be inspiration for the director's creative work, it is indeed uncertain.

"What kind of actor is it? Director Chu, you said that you are asking. Brother Blowing immediately entered work mode, and having a movie means that he has a job.

Chu Shun said: "Foreign actresses, I only have three simple requirements: beauty, beauty, beauty is miserable. ”

It is indeed a simple request, Brother Cui thought about it and decided to ask clearly: "It's so beautiful that it's miserable, in fact, it's not easy to define, can Director Chu describe it more clearly." ”

"The goddess of dreams is hard at a glance. Chu Shun described it simply and clearly.

“...... I tried my best to find out. Brother Blowing obviously choked up on this description too bluntly: "So are there any requirements for the coffee position?"

"There is no limit, as long as it meets my requirements. Chu Shun was categorical.

"I see. Brother Blowing was shocked, and I felt that the director was going to enter the world.

Chu Shun came down twice, and this third time, he understood a truth, the most difficult thing for him is to match actors.

At the time of the call, the shooting funds had already been transferred to the bank card, which was the second prize of the Vietlott lottery in Vietnam.

Specifically as the king of koi fish, Chu Shun, who is about to arrive at hundreds of millions of box office accounts, no longer cares about money.

In my spare time, I also began to look for the heroine by myself, what are the 100 most beautiful faces in the world.

Looking for the heroine is the whole afternoon, during which her hands have been on the table, and the beauty still has some eye pain after watching it for a long time, and there is no suitable one, not to mention that it really tastes like choosing a concubine.

"I'm hungry, go out and have some skewers. ”

Chu Shun packed up and went out to find a small county liver steel pipe factory, and he was so happy to eat alone.

That night, the video of Chu Shun's speech at school was posted on the Internet paragraph by paragraph, and because there were many jokes, he was regarded as the king of stalks by water friends.

In particular, "a director will encounter a lot of difficulties in creation...... I haven't experienced any of them. ”

It was rated by netizens as one of the four major outfits x small experts in the new era.

The specific discussion message will be clear on the Internet, so I won't repeat it here.

Recently, the entertainment industry has also been torn up quite badly, a celebrity posted on Weibo accusing his wife of cheating, and then his wife posted the male star's CF chat record instead.

It's really uneven, and it's because of the excitement of the real hammer that the speech video has not spread.

There is news that Chu Shun rejected the scripts of the three major companies, but there are still large and small companies that hand over the scripts to Chu Shun's company.

The reason why I know this news is because Chu Shun went to the company to sign Cheng Si, and the number of people in the company finally exceeded ten, which is gratifying.

"Although I know that these small companies are holding, if I am brain-dead and agree, won't I make a lot of money, but my brain, deducted by the pig's brain weighs two pounds, will the brain be short-circuited?" Chu Shun brought back the script aside, not interested in reading it.

The reason why Chu Shun did not set up a film and television company and sign an actor is troublesome, once you set up your own team, you have to ensure that people can eat enough, so to maintain the filming speed to a certain extent, you can't pay your salary in vain.

And Chu Shun is now shooting whenever he wants, as for saying that he has no connections, can't become a climate, has limited influence, etc., it's nonsense.

Otherwise, after Goutou and Rui Ying become famous, they won't give Chu Shun face?

What Chu Shun wants is that if he doesn't make a film, he will be on the edge of the circle, and if something happens, the circle will tremble.

Of course, this influence is not yet there, and it still needs to be accumulated by making movies, but the most important thing Chu Shun lacks is good movies.
