"It's very political. ”

Schroeder felt this way after watching "Reunion".

But he also admits that the film is excellent.

The story of the movie "Reunion" tells the story between the two sides of the strait, and the characters in it are mainly old people.

Let the kind of words that can't express feelings, so that people can see it, and they can think about it with their hearts.

The old lady is the old gentleman's original wife on the other side, but the old lady has her own family and life on the mainland.

It should be said that this is indeed a very good movie, but it just gives Schroeder a subtle feeling.

There are a lot of political factors behind it, and it seems to be making insinuations.

Well, that's about what it looks like.

So, Schroeder went back to talk to his colleague about his feelings.

The next day, the magazine "SCREEN" gave a rating on "Reunion".

2.4 points!

As soon as this score came out, many Chinese journalists who paid attention to the Berlin Film Festival were excited.

Why?

Very simply, Zhang Yimou's "Three Guns" also came to the Berlin Film Festival to participate in the exhibition, and, of course, he wanted to enter the main competition unit, but the venue magazine score of "Three Guns" was 1.8.

Don't underestimate the 0.6 gap, because the house journal rarely gives more than 3 points in terms of rating.

Or it can be said that a movie work that scores more than 3 points is basically a perfect masterpiece in the eyes of the house magazine.

But...... Well, it's still the same problem, very few people with a 3-point rating later get a Golden Bear, of course, there will be awards, but in the end the big prize bears are generally not given.

It's a strange phenomenon, maybe the judges like to show that their vision is different.

But anyway, this time "Three Guns" is only 1.8, and it was not shortlisted for the main competition unit, is this saying that Zhang Yimou is no longer good?

How can Chinese journalists not get excited?

As a result, a lot of articles appeared overnight.

Wang Quanan represents a new literary trend in Chinese films!"

"Get a high score!" Is it possible for "Reunion" to win the Golden Bear?"

"Reunion represents a new height of Chinese literary films. ”

This blow can be described as fleshy and numb.

So, what about Mr. Tree?

……

The hotel, Bao forced the color in a hurry.

The Berlin Film Festival also arranges hotels, which is somewhat similar to the Golden Horse Awards in Taiwan.

Of course, there are some similarities, for example, there are cash prizes for winning films.

There was a lot of cash, and this was also an aspect that was very attractive to Chinese movies back then.

Some cash rewards, even if the movie doesn't have a box office, can make the movie profitable.

The previous exchange rate was like that.

But now, why is Baoqiang like this?

I saw him come to the gym of the hotel, and as soon as he came in......

"Mom, Brother Yang, I, I'm not here at the right time. ”

Baoqiang, this guy, directly covered his face very quickly.

Xiang Yang's voice came from there, "No, what do you want?"

What the hell is going on?

Just now, Bao Qiang saw his brother Yang and his sister-in-law, and the two of them were there...... Entangled.

It just looks a little blushing.

But the sister-in-law over there spoke, "Qiangzi, you, this is really ...... in your head Ha ha...... I'll practice yoga with your brother Yang. ”

"Oh, I see. Bao Qiang, who suddenly realized, took his hand down.

Fortunately, the blushing posture just now is gone.

So what kind of posture is it?

Actually, it's really nothing, it's just yoga for two, Xiang Yang is behind, and the master is in front, so it's about like this.

Anyway, it is because of this posture that Xiang Yang especially supports the practice of the young master.

In particular, he had heard that it seemed that this so-called yoga was originally born to develop that ability.

No, Xiang Yang is very confident in his own aspect, isn't it because of his many postures.

What do you think!

"What are you doing here?" Xiang Yang wiped his sweat slightly.

There is no one in the gym in the hotel now, and the couple just tried a new pose.

"I'll take a shower first, you two talk. Xiao Ye looked at Bao Qiang's appearance, and she wanted to laugh.

In fact, the joke that Xiang Yang made on the plane before, she really felt that her husband was talented.

Bao Qiang is paired with Fan Ye, what kind of picture is this?

Forget it, that is, think about it, it's simply impossible.

Bao Qiang scratched his head, and waited for his sister-in-law to leave, then spoke, "Brother Yang, what the hell is going on with that field magazine scoring?"

Xiang Yang couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, "You don't know what's going on?"

He didn't believe that Baoqiang was so stupid.

Bao Qiang scratched his head again, blushing.

Xiang Yang said: "Are you worried about our "Mr. Tree"? Or, Han Jie, they are also worried, they are not good at asking, let you kid come?

Bao Qiang smiled, a little embarrassed, which was equivalent to acquiescence.

Xiang Yang was not embarrassed for him, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, isn't it just a magazine, and they can't really affect the final result." ”

Bao Qiang listened to it and couldn't help but admire.

That magazine, from Han Jie's mouth, was said to be too advanced, as if it could decide the ownership of the Golden Bear with one blow.

Look at our Brother Yang!

It's amazing!

But Xiang Yang continued: "Let's win the award this time, don't expect to win the award too much, you kid put your mind at ease, what I'm afraid of is that they can't understand our movie." ”

Can't read it?

This makes sense, to tell the truth, Bao Qiang himself didn't understand it.

He knew he was crazy in that movie.

And now?

"Okay! I'll listen to Brother Yang!"

Bao Qiang happily went back.

Xiang Yang was also happy, he ...... this time Well, full of confidence!

Why are you so confident?

On the one hand, there is the film, which he thinks is very good.

Plus, that's ......

Anyway, the magazine's rating isn't a big deal.

Xiang Yang remembers what happened before he crossed over.

There is a film called "Burning" in South Korea, which scored more than 3 points at that time, about 3.4 points, which is the highest score in the three major film festivals in Europe.

The result?

Lost.

So, this rating is nothing at all.

But when Bao Qiang left, the master came back.

"You're so confident?"

"Don't worry. ”

"Really?"

"Daughter-in-law, I will definitely take back a bear. ”

"Ha ......"

The master was very happy.

Actually, Wan Xiaoye didn't say it, but she was also very nervous.

What about nervousness?

Looking for a husband, and tired of it.

So...

"Would you like to develop a new pose?"

"Hmm~"

Yes, yoga is good for two people.

……

Following.

Schroeder is a Jedi who doesn't care about other people's opinions, he just does his part to write reports and give his own opinions.

The movie "Hello! Mr. Tree" has finally been screened.

So, what exactly is this movie about?

I was looking at the poster outside, but I only saw a person, not very cleanly dressed, with messy hair and a cigarette in his hand.

It's a very strange gesture.

However, Schroeder was attracted to this gesture, that kind of deep attraction.

This man, who smokes, is very ...... There is a feeling!

In the movie, what about this place?

Finally, the story of "Mr. Tree" begins.

Schroeder was engrossed, but he really didn't expect that at the beginning, that person would appear.

"My brother is dead, long ago dead......"

Of course he is Mr. Shu, it is Bao Qiang, and when he said this, he smiled and showed his yellow teeth.

Schroeder certainly noticed these details, and likewise, he also noticed the environment in which the person was situated.

So what is that place?

He didn't quite understand.

After all, although he is a China expert, there are some places that he doesn't know.

Soon, as soon as the camera turned, a scene similar to the county town appeared.

"Harmonious life, 800,000 square meters of community ......"

This small county town seems to be about to be demolished.

And the camera slowly moved from the propaganda car to a place that seemed to be very dark.

Garage.

"Oops, oops!"

The man reappeared, but now he seemed to have a problem with his eyes.

"It's been shaken by electric welding, hurry up and go to the hospital!"

That's how I got to the hospital.

"What's the name?"

"Trees. ”

"It's called a tree?"

"Anyway, everyone knows me, so I'm writing like that. ”

The doctor needed to register, and as a result, Brother Shu reported his name like this.

Schroeder felt strange, but he had a strong urge to read it.

But in fact, he didn't know that this was where the name 'tree' really came in.

Not long after, Brother Shu was dismissed, and he had two thousand yuan more in his hand, and a little nurse's little tender hand.

"You're like that, a fire~"

"The firelight ~ illuminates my ......"

A man appeared, singing.

What a strange look!

Schroeder was completely stupid, what's the matter with this person?

It's not bad to sing, he's really heard this song.

Interestingly, there is also a woman next to this person.

The two of them also sang and danced at the same time.

The clothes that the woman was wearing, very, very ...... Gorgeous.

Well, this kind of colorful Northeast padded jacket is very gorgeous in Schroeder's opinion, and he even thinks that this is art at all, and if you make it well, you can also go on the runway.

He didn't know that his idea was right, because within a few years, this kind of big flower jacket and long skirt was really worn by European models on the runway of the world's top fashion week.

The tree also smokes a cigarette.

But soon, there was a crunch.

Brother Shu was slapped in the face.

This......

What the hell just happened?

Schroeder swears that he is definitely a character who has read countless films, but this scene made him a little confused.

However, I want to see the back even more.

And then something happened.

tree, met Kojo.

Tree, blind date.

The tree helped Xiaozhuang, but it was the one who sang and danced to help the tree reason.

Tree, bullied, he knelt.

Tree, he became the master 'Mr. Tree'.

Schroeder was stunned, but Schroeder also understood.

When the character of the tree, his story develops to some places with nodes, the person who sings and dances will appear.

Even, that person will change, he not only has a woman, but also a woman who can't speak.

It's all beautiful.

At such a point, the screen will switch again, and it will return to the place where there is a table at the beginning.

The tree will say a word.

"My brother, my brother died early. ”

"My brother is dead. ”

"I was beaten to death by my father, and I was beaten to death by hanging. ”

And the one who danced.

What Schroeder saw was that he always had a strange smile, this smile, this temperament, and this person's behavior and movements, all of which were not usually possessed by this person.

So who is this person?

He got it!

He actually understood the mystery before it was revealed!

This person is the brother of the tree!

The tree kept saying that his brother was dead, but his mind was full of his brother.

It must be like this!

So, what's the conclusion?

When Schroeder thought of this, goosebumps all over his body rose!

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the movie to come to an end.

The answer is revealed.

Tree, he's crazy.

The place where he was, where he told his story, was definitely a mental hospital!

So, who's listening to him?

Is it Schroeder, or rather, these moviegoers?

So, don't you think about it and be extremely afraid?

However, is this movie just about watching the story of this madman, is it so simple?

Schroeder thinks that telling a story like this is already very good.

But he faintly felt in his heart that if he could sublimate a little more, it would be more perfect.

However, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do so.

Because such a set has already been made.

That is, the audience's understanding of the whole movie is actually watching a madman tell you a story.

It's even more powerful.

Brushed the audience.

So, how else can it be sublimated?

As an old driver who has read countless films, Schroeder can't think of how to sublimate if he wants to break his head.

Because this is already super tough, in fact, it's not playing tricks on the audience.

Mr. Tree, he is now a 'master'.

It's very powerful, he's risen up, and almost everyone in this movie listens to what he says.

Everyone will think that he is a kind of 'god'.

In other words, the characters in the movie are listening to a madman, and they think it's very good.

Aren't what those of us who are outside the movie see the ugliness of these guys?

Isn't that ironic in this story?

A good movie should be like this, with deep meaning, and it can make people shake from the heart.

Anyway, Schroeder has already been shaken.

This tree is a madman, he's crazy.

The dancing man, and his two women, these shots...... By the way, it's very magical.

That's right!

The character looks real, but it doesn't exist at all, and so does his woman.

Also, in terms of performance, it is very shocking.

This tree, it's really amazing.

And his brother, too, is fantastic.

Two people...... It seems to be completely different, but it also gives people a sense of unity.

Actually, take a closer look at the details.

The appearance of that brother, is it really to help the tree?

No, it's the tree itself!

It's like that Fight Club.

Yes, exactly.

It should be said that Schroeder at this time has been conquered by this movie.

So, what kind of ending can there be to make this movie more sublimated?

No!

Before the end of the movie, Schroeder concluded.

Even, he had already thought of the end.

This "Mr. Tree" should end like this.

It is simply to pull out the lens of the camera, give the panorama, and let the character of the tree and the environment he is in be exposed.

Well, it's a complete success!

This is the final reversal that gives everyone a very shocking reversal.

Tell all viewers the truth.

The tree is a psychopath, and you were just watching a psychotic story, or he told it himself.

A film critic like Schroeder can think of such an ending, and he is confident that such an ending is shocking enough to surprise all audiences.

But!

Schroeder never expected that the end of the movie would be like this.

That's right, here it is!

The camera began to pull.

The camera is backwards, and slowly backwards, and the whole psychiatric hospital scene should appear.

However, when Schroeder saw the end, he was stupid!

His brain almost exploded!

What happened?

I saw that on the big screen, there was indeed a full picture of the interior of the mental hospital.

However, there are people.

It's not just one or two people, it's many, many people.

Who are these people?

In the previous movie, all the people who appeared in the hope that 'Mr. Tree' could help them, these people, now all are in this room!

So that's it!

It turns out that the real audience is these guys.

And the most shocking thing is.

Mr. Tree, he has been admitted to a psychiatric hospital, he should have been diagnosed with mental illness.

However, these individuals, these seemingly normal people, they are still listening to Mr. Tree's nonsense!

For example, the opening will be on the 13th of the month.

But they just believe!

This...

Ahh

Schroeder covered his mouth and screamed.

This is too sublimated in the end!

Humans just like to hear what they want to hear.

Even if the person speaking is mentally ill, they still do.

And that's not all.

The tree smoked a lot, and eventually, the matches were gone.

What's wrong?

The cigarette butt was in the hand of the tree, and the tree had a strange smile on its face.

At this moment, a classic picture appeared!

A group of people, normal people, each of them, took out a large fire engine or match, came over, and scrambled to light it for Mr. Tree.

Isn't this a classic scene from "The Beautiful Legend of Sicily"!

The movie suddenly freezes, and this scene is the final picture.

Schroeder decided in his heart!

This "Mr. Tree" is worth at least 3 points!
