A well-known actor in a Hollywood literary movie left a message in the forum of the Actors Guild:

Judging from the trailer of Peng Yichen's "Double Treasure Fighting Demons". The graphics and footage of this movie are great. The director's shots, in terms of light and atmosphere, even reminded me of Master Kubrick. I think when the time comes, I will definitely go to the cinema to see this movie. I think this Chinese director should be able to give me a big surprise this time. ”

"Hey, buddy, I think you're crazy. Huaxia directors have been in the market for so many years, and only one is a pretty good Li An, and even the guy named Wu Yusen, who was so popular back then, finally got out of Hollywood. Can you expect a 26-year-old Huaxia director to surprise you?"

It is said that this director has a movie in China that has a box office of more than 100 million US dollars. Anyway, he should have a set of commercial films. But I don't think he can rely on a horror movie to gain a foothold in the Star Flag Country. ”

"Upstairs the truth. Horror movies can only be made well by masters, except for those made by masters, everyone else is bullshit. ”

In the midst of all kinds of speculation and anticipatory discussions, two groups of big-name stars in the film industry suddenly appeared, which pushed this discussion to a peak.

Generally speaking, in the forum, the people who often participate in the discussion are small actors in the third and fourth lines, or actors who are not in the stream.

It is impossible for first- and second-tier actors, or top superstars, to express their opinions casually here.

Because they often represent very large interests behind them, and their words and deeds are subject to certain constraints.

But this time the discussion was a little different.

Because of the core of the discussion, Peng Yichen, a young Chinese director, has been involved in the confrontation of the entire Xingqi Country film force without his own knowledge.

As mentioned earlier, the power of Wall Street capital in Hollywood and the power of traditional Hollywood filmmakers both hope to use Peng Yichen's bridge to win over the "foreign aid" of the Chinese film market in order to defeat each other.

But among traditional filmmakers, in fact, the views on Peng Yichen are divided into two factions. It's just that Peng Yichen himself doesn't know at all.

Most people who are familiar with the film industry of the Star Flag Country know vaguely that Hollywood movies have always been just representatives of the commercial film school of the Star Flag Country.

Although Hollywood is recognized all over the world as a synonym for Star Flag Country movies.

However, in the eyes of many filmmakers in the Star Flag Country, Hollywood movies are deviant and rotten film representatives.

In the eyes of many filmmakers in Star Flag Country, literary films and commercial films are two completely different worlds.

The center of commercial cinema is in Los Angeles, while the home of literary cinema is in New York.

World-renowned Star Flag directors such as Woody Allen, David Lynch, and Martin Scisss are the leaders of New York's academic representatives.

They don't admit that they are Hollywood directors at all, and they often scoff at commercial film directors led by Spielberg, Cameron and others.

They believe that only filmmakers in New York are the ones who really pay attention to the artistic quality of film.

Their films are often filled with anti-war, democracy, the pursuit of equality, and satire on social phenomena.

They are very stubborn about the fact that movies must have a deep connotation, and they completely ignore the business operation of Hollywood.

There are even some directors of the New York school who insist on raising their own money to shoot movies all their lives, without any funds from Wall Street capital.

They despise commercial films, prefer serious and profound subject matter, and disdain Hollywood entertainment blockbusters.

But it is this group of people who hate Hollywood in every way, and Hollywood filmmakers have to accept them, and sometimes even admire them.

The reason is simple, these New York Academy filmmakers not only have a high prestige in the art field of the Star Flag Country.

They also occupy nearly half of the Oscar jury positions.

It can be said that their aesthetics and choice of movies represent Oscar's aesthetics and choices of movies.

It is also this group of people who have been resisting the complete corrosion of movies by Wall Street capital.

So they don't look down on Spielberg and Cameron from their hearts, they use capital money to make movies, and after they become popular, they say that they are traditional filmmakers, traditional Hollywood filmmakers who want to confront Wall Street capital.

They support themselves as New York traditionalists, just to distinguish themselves from Hollywood traditionalists.

It is such a group of people who are stubborn and insist on the pursuit of art and never relax.

How can it be possible to look down on Hollywood traditionalism, the idea of winning over the Chinese film market and using the film market forces of other countries to counter Wall Street capital.

In their opinion, Peng Yichen, who made a horror movie based on "sensory stimulation" in his first movie, is definitely a Hollywood traditionalist like Spielberg and Cameron who likes to be opportunistic.

Therefore, they have great prejudice and resistance against Peng Yichen and his "Double Treasure Fighting Demons".

made Peng Yichen, who didn't know anything about it at all, suffered from unjustified suffering.

Peng Yichen's "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" was released in North America, and these New York traditionals can't help it, they don't have much appeal in theaters.

But they know that Peng Yichen also has a "Beautiful Life" that is running for an Oscar nomination for Best Foreign Language Film, and has begun extensive public relations work.

This gave these New York traditionalists an outlet for their outlets.

They used their influence to spread their resistance to Peng Yichen in the actors' forum and major professional forums.

Among them, the toughest attitude is one of the favorite royal actors of New York traditionalist directors, the former Oscar-winning actor - Sean Penn.

is a stubborn old man who has almost no presence in Hollywood, can only find a sense of presence in stage plays for five years, and can only perform in independent small-budget movies.

First of all, the bombardment of Peng Yichen was launched.

Sean Penn directly published a long article in the forum of the Actors Guild that bombarded Peng Yichen and Huaxia Films:

"This is simply a capital invasion and farce, and we absolutely cannot tolerate the capital forces from the Chinese film market to invade the film market of our Star Flag Country. (The New Yorkers never recognized Hollywood's representation of Star Flag Nation films.)

I once watched a movie directed by this so-called Peng Yichen.

That was the only one he had previously released in the Star Flag Country - "Shocking Black Gold".

100% boring movies, all kinds of inexplicable characters, I don't know the so-called politics. Irony, and that crazy dark humanity. (It has been a long time since the people of Xingqi could not understand the movies of China's political and political struggles)

All let me see the incompetence and arrogance of this director.

What profound and great movies can such a director make?

Therefore, I propose that we, the filmmakers of the Star Flag Country, should resolutely boycott his films and be shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film!"

The actor, who won the Oscar for Best Actor for "Mystic River" in 2004 and again for "Milk" last year.

Don't look at the fact that it doesn't have much influence in Hollywood.

But his influence among traditional New York filmmakers is enormous.

He followed up with an article:

"Cinema is a display of the director's personal worldview, values, soul and thoughts.

Although I haven't seen the movie in which Peng Yichen participated in the Oscars.

But judging from the "Shocking Black Gold" he filmed, as well as the trailer of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons", which is now about to be released in North America.

This Peng Yichen is completely a person who likes to sensationalize and package his movies with various gimmicks.

My guess is that he must be good at attracting the audience with all kinds of curious movies, but these movies will inevitably leave the audience with nothing but all kinds of dark thoughts.

I'm afraid that the audience of the Star Flag Country will also be polluted by an extremely commercial director like him. (Hehe, Hollywood's commercialization is the world's first)

The greater the honor and success of a director like this, the more darkness and mistakes will be created through the film.

If you are a person who loves freedom, equality, and peace, you should boycott his films completely.

In particular, the judges who participated in the preliminary selection of the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film must exclude his film. ”

Although Sean Penn is not even an A-list actor in Hollywood, because he is addicted to stage plays, his salary has always been very low.

It's not even been a starring role in a first-line movie for a long time.

However, he has performed stage plays in London and New York all year round, and has played a leading role in the art films of the New York School. The Oscar winner took two.

can be described as the backbone of the New York faction, and he himself is one of the judges of the Oscars.

Finally, he posted another article, using a sour tone, satirizing Huaxia's so-called "movies that go international":

"I respect the history and culture of China, and I also like the films of some Chinese directors.

But in the past 20 years, there have been countless so-called 'international films' in China, and I have not seen anything worthy of respect.

One is a disgusting film that exposes the ugliness of their own nation and country in order to win the curiosity and vanity of Western audiences.

The other is the fake and boring so-called martial arts movies, which are full of tricky and mysterious actions, and inexplicable outlook on life and values.

And Peng Yichen is the epitome of these two movies, which is why I hate him so much. ”

Of course, there are pros and cons to everything.

The boycott of Peng Yichen at the New York party did not affect the screening and publicity of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons".

After all, the people of the New York faction are also a group of outliers within the Star Flag Country.

In such a commercial country, they are always hostile to all commercial films.

This creates a very paradoxical phenomenon, that is, the more the New Yorkers criticize a movie, the more ordinary Hollywood filmmakers and fans will be interested in the film. The more I want to go to the cinema.

So Sean Penn and the people from the New York faction helped Peng Yichen make a small publicity.

However, the boycott of Peng Yichen by the New York party, although it did not affect the release of his film, had a very big impact on his "Beautiful Life" in the selection of the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

The selection of the Oscars and major professional film awards is where the New York School really has a huge influence.
