Chapter 196 "Under the Bridge" is released (the fifth update, please subscribe~~)

"Under the Bridge" has officially begun to be screened nationwide!

In fact, it was screened in major studios earlier, and after receiving some opinions, the official edited version also began to be released nationwide.

When "Under the Bridge" was released, "Shaolin Temple" had been released for more than three months, and the popularity had gone down a lot, but the proud results of "Shaolin Temple" made studios across the country shocked, and no one thought that a movie could cause such significant results.

And Li Lianjie, who played Jueyuan in it, became popular all over the country overnight, and at the same time, this movie has also been released in Xiangjiang, which has also caused a huge sensation, and now there are film companies waving checks to find Li Lianjie, hoping to invite him to participate in the filming of the movie, but now Li Lianjie can only look at the check and sigh.

Although there is no official statistics at the box office of "Shaolin Temple" in China, it is estimated that it must be easily over 100 million, and the salary and subsidies of the starring Li Lianjie add up to 600 yuan!

Due to the particularity of its subject matter, it first attracted a lot of self-employed people to watch, and it is said that after the movie, many people wiped their tears and found resonance in the movie.

After coming out of that turbulent era, they returned to Shanghai, but what awaited them was that they lost the opportunity to work and could only become idle people in society, but they did not give up their lives and became self-employed with their own hands.

But even so, they are still looked down upon in society and considered to be a destabilizing factor in society.

Feng Xiao is a self-employed person in Huhai, after coming out of the cinema, a man in his twenties, also came out in tears, he thought of the object that his family introduced to him two days ago, the other party heard that he was self-employed, and he refused without even seeing him, which made him feel devastated, obviously he earned more than her, more than most people who went to work, but the other party just thought that self-employed people were not glorious enough.

When he set up a stall in the alley, he was often pointed at and didn't do his job, but he has always been law-abiding, isn't he better than those Ah Fei?

He has always wondered why this society treats him like this, and there was a time when he thought about giving up, but when he watched this movie, he instantly gave up this idea.

Gao Zhihua inside, Qin Nan is so unswerving, Qin Nan's life is already so miserable, but she never resents, she is still enthusiastic about making clothes for everyone, and Gao Zhihua is the same, he is optimistic, firm, we earn money with our own hands, what's wrong?

This sentence also became what Feng Xiao wanted to tell the people around her.

I'm on my own! What's there to be ashamed of?

Soon "Under the Bridge" detonated in many cities in the south, and many self-employed people entered the theater to watch this movie every day, and at the same time, because of the lack of entertainment projects at this time, some people who eat melons also walked into the theater to watch this movie.

First of all, they were attracted by Qin Nan played by Gong Bin and Gao Zhihua played by Wu Jianye in the movie, one is beautiful and the other is handsome.

Then they were attracted by the plot in the movie, the audience of this era is different from the audience of later generations, they are not so picky, what kind of movie the country shows, what kind of movie to watch, but the movie "Under the Bridge" is obviously right to pay for the movie ticket money they spent, the plot is real and simple, especially a lot of things seem to happen around them, so that they have a different understanding of the group of self-employed.

This was followed by screenings across the country, and "Under the Bridge" became the second film after "Shaolin Temple" to cause heated discussions across the country.

Ordinary viewers only watch the plot of the movie.

Professional filmmakers, on the other hand, see something deeper.

The theme of the film about ordinary citizens at the bottom of the society who endure humiliation and burden in the face of adversity, and finally overcome fate, bravely rise up and fight for the right to life and happiness is a true reflection of the director's own personal life experience in the bottom society in the past 30 years. What is surprising is that Comrade Bai Chen is already in his 60s, but what he writes about in this film is what is happening today (at the same time as the filming in 1981) (such as the problem of self-employed people), which is a "new thing in the south of the city" in Shanghai. Reflecting our generation of young people in such a timely manner and in sync with our lives today shows the choreographer's love and understanding of our time, life and youth today. Bai Shen is not an "unearthed cultural relic" and an "old antique", his heart is young, so it is admirable.

At the same time, what is even more admirable is that the screenwriter of this movie, Comrade Wu Jianye, a classmate who is still studying at Yenching Film Academy, was able to write such an unpretentious movie, write about life, and write about the life of this era.

In terms of artistic expression, "Under the Bridge" has the documentary style of Italian neorealism, and the breath of ordinary citizens' lives under the Suzhou Creek Bridge in Shanghai is blowing in the face, and it can be seen that they are all shot on the street, and I, a Shanghainese, are very kind to see -- and the two heroes and heroines are not a pair of "angels on the road" on the beach in this era? According to Western film critics, neorealism should have been the first Chinese progressive films from the 30s before World War II. Comrade Bai Shen said that what he tried to show was the style of teacher Zhu Shilin's "chamber drama". I think he was mainly referring to the ethical conflicts within the citizen's family. "Under the Bridge" should be said to be a citizen family ethics film, but it should be said that it has deepened to social ethics, especially through the beautiful image of the two younger sisters - Xiao Yun and Gao Yinghua, who are vigorous and brave in hard work, so that the film brings social brightness and the freshness of the times in the 80s, which is a step higher than "Xiyingmen" that shows the family ethics of farmers.

This is a report on "Under the Bridge" in "Popular Movie", and the structure of the plot and the portrayal of the characters are also reported later, such as here's a paragraph:

The performances of the heroes and heroines Wu Jianye and Gong Xue (as well as some other actors) epitomize the psychological documentary style of the film, which contains rich emotional connotations in the elegant life. The success of the film director's selection of actors and the accuracy of the actors' performances mark the beginning of a new era in China's film performance art.

Gong Bin is a well-deserved soul in this drama, her performance is natural and real, she really brought Qin Nan to life, and the double nomination of the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award is the greatest affirmation of her, which makes many big directors remember that there is such an actress in China.

As for the major studios, it's different, now that Gong Yin has officially been seconded to Shanghai Film Studio, it's useless for them to appreciate it.

And Wu Jianye is different, before that, because of a "Peacock Princess", Wu Jianye has caused a lot of sensation in the industry, everyone knows that the students of Yenching Film Academy can direct, write, and act, and are almost an all-round talent.

For such talents, the major studios attach even more importance to it than Gong Jin, so at this time, almost all the major studios across the country have found the Yenching Film Academy, hoping to get Wu Jianye!
