Chapter 60 Movie Playback
There is still a minute before the movie is played, and there are more than 60 spectators in the cinema with nearly 200 seats, and John is more satisfied with this number, he is not a well-known director after all, and there are no big-name stars in the movie, so there is such an occupancy rate, which is inseparable from the location of the theater.
It didn't take long for the theater lights to go out, and the audience stopped chatting, staring at the screen, waiting for the movie to start, and at this moment, a twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old, black-haired woman, panting and running into the movie theater, sat alone in the last row, quickly took out her notebook and waited for the movie to start.
Her name is Joanna Phillip, she is an employee of New Line Films, and she just became a filmmaker this year, and this is the first time she has come to the Sundance Film Festival to buy a film on behalf of the company.
Before leaving, she was ready to show off her skills at the Sundance Film Festival and buy a few high-quality movies for the company, but after watching the films for two days, she was a little disappointed, most of the movies played were of poor quality, and some were of good quality, but they lacked market buying points.
Just when Joanna Philip was depressed about what had happened in the past few days, the big dark screen lit up, and the first thing that appeared on the screen was a crown coming from space, like a meteor landing on the top of a mountain, and then the words "Crown Studio" appeared on the screen.
After the opening of the film, a cheerful song suddenly sounded.
“Everybody get up......
Everybody get up......
Hey hey hey......
Hey hey hey......”
New York ushered in a new day with music, and under the shooting of long shots, New York in the morning sun showed its unique charm, and it was not until the camera finally fell on Rockefeller Center that the song slowly stopped.
"New York is so beautiful in the morning, why didn't I notice it before......" Perez praised as he looked at New York on the big screen.
"Oh, dear, that's because you never woke up early!" Ariana replied quietly.
Shooting a panoramic view of the city with a long shot, after post-processing, using warm colors to highlight the light texture, and finally presenting it on the big screen, will be more beautiful and imposing than what people usually see.
Just when the audience was immersed in the scenery of New York, the camera suddenly switched to the weather broadcast hall of NBC TV, and the host Phil read the broadcast content in his mouth, while bringing various exaggerated expressions, the developed facial nerves, and making unbelievable movements.
"Someone asked me today, 'Phil, just pick a place, where are you going?' I'd say, 'That's probably it,' Eco, Nevada.
Today's highest temperature in the country is 79 degrees Fahrenheit, and California will have warm weather tomorrow......"
After reporting the weather, Phil came to the host table and sat down with another female host.
"I won't be here at ten o'clock, tomorrow is the Groundhog Festival, I'm going to Psutani to participate in the oldest groundhog festival in the country, according to legend, tomorrow February 2nd, if the groundhog sees its shadow, there are still six weeks left in winter, pray for good luck!". ”
The hostess saw Phil and said, "It seems to be very funny, Phil, this is where you went 3 years in a row!"
Phil immediately corrected: "4 years ......"
"Haha......"
The screening hall was filled with laughter, and the audience was very much bought into Jim Carrey's American comedy.
As the saying goes, insiders watch the doorway, and laymen watch the excitement, just when the ordinary audience laughs, the movie buyers scattered around are busy recording in their notebooks.
"This is a director who is good at creating laughs, the opening scene is very funny, very pleasing to the audience, and the opening of this film can be given 8 points. Joanna Phillip wrote it down in her notebook.
Jerry Bruckheimer's film producer Brady Roberts wrote in his notebook that "the cinematography is very good, the opening of the song + comedy is very good, and the main character is in place." He then added seven points to the opening column.
As for Milamax filmmaker Abt Lewis, he didn't write, he was interested in horror films.
And another Universal Pictures filmmaker, Bud Hill, gave a 6-point opening, he doesn't like comedy too much, he likes science fiction movies.
No matter how good a movie is, it can't be liked by everyone, some people like comedy, some people like horror movies, some people like science fiction movies, and some people like action movies.
However, just when everyone thought it was an American comedy, the black card clock on the big screen flipped to 6 o'clock, and Tido's "Thank you" sounded again, and the two hosts on the radio broadcast broadcast the repetitive content.
Phil felt that something was wrong, and after hurriedly washing up, he went out and met the innkeepers, beggars, classmates, and colleagues, and finally concluded that he was still on February 2nd.
"Hey, this is a science fiction movie? Time repeats. Joey Koch's interest was suddenly aroused, she had never seen a movie with this theme before, and she felt very fresh in her heart.
Just as surprised as she was Bud Hill, a sci-fi buyer who was just careless, and was now engrossed in his gaze on the screen.
"The subject matter is very fresh, the film is brain-opening, time repetition is the biggest buying point of this movie, as long as the ending is well filmed, there is a family carnival, this movie is considered a success. Joanna Phillip continued to stare at the screen after scoring an 8.5 on her laptop for the buy.
The most important thing in a movie is the layout of the opening, the foreshadowing of the middle plot and the climax of the ending, as long as these three places are done well, even if there are some flaws in the movie, it will not hurt.
As the movie plays, the storyline slowly moves forward, Phil goes from the initial freshness to despair of life, and finally ends his life in the extreme way of crashing, jumping off a building, and being electrocuted.
When he tried all kinds of suicide and couldn't end his life, he finally found Rita in despair and told Rita what happened to her, and Rita finally chose to believe him and was willing to stay with him until the next day.
In the room of the town hotel, Rita slept next to Phil, everything looked so warm, Phil looked at Rita in the sleep, and said from his heart: "What I want to say is that you are the kindest and most considerate person I have ever met in my life, and I have never seen anyone better than you."
"Wow wow......" Peres was looking at the big screen, generally wiping her tears, she couldn't stand this kind of plot the most.
Looking at Perez, who was wiping tears next to her, Ariana pursed her lips and muttered in her heart: "The tears of an ignorant girl are always so easy to be deceived. ”
The plot of the movie continues, Phil kisses Rita gently, and then says: "The first time I saw you, I had a wonderful feeling, I didn't tell you, but I knew that I had to hold you tightly, I didn't deserve you, but if I could, I swear I would love you for the rest ......of my life." ”
"Comedy plus sci-fi is also philosophical, and it's a good mainstream movie. Bud Hill gave "Stealing Love" a selling point of 80 points in his notebook. Compared to a perfect score of 100 points, this score is already considered a high score.
