On February 18, which is also the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the selection of the Golden Hazel Award officially began.

"Click!" the big screen lit up.

No one spoke, and all the most critical eyes in all of China were staring at the screen.

Every film and actor that can be nominated is a high-quality product, and what they have to do is to pick the bones in the egg until they find one without any flaws!

When the film was officially broadcast, the eyes of several judges lit up, director Xu Changxuan, this is an amazing person, the movie he shot is a frequent visitor to the Golden Hazel Award for Best Feature Film nomination, and his strength is beyond doubt.

But which one of the nominees is not extremely exciting, they just want to compete with who is more exciting.

All the final judges watched intently, and when the film screening was over, everyone thoughtfully wrote down a score that they felt was appropriate on the form in their hands, as well as a brief comment.

Judge Tang Mo sighed and said: "The quality is still good, but it's still a little disappointed, and I don't feel particularly amazing." ”

The famous actor Li Yong, who also served as a judge, commented on the performance of the actors: "The acting skills of several protagonists are okay, but those supporting roles are a little far behind, which lowers the overall evaluation!"

"More than exciting, not enough depth, among the nominated films...... It's just a decent thing!" someone chimed in.

"Let's watch the next part, time is tight......"

The minutes ticked by, and soon it was noon.

Judging a film is a physical and mental work, not only does it take hours to sit down, but it also requires mobilizing all brain cells to analyze the essence and dross of a film, but compared with ordinary audiences, they are more strict.

At noon, the studio specially arranged a sumptuous banquet, which was an honor for the final review of the Golden Hazel Award to be held in their studio, which was completely spontaneous.

After eating, everyone sat down in the cinema again, without a trace of impatience.

Compared to the movie in the morning

Being able to serve as a judge of the Golden Hazel Award, this is their honor and responsibility, and it is naturally necessary to complete it meticulously.

The "Click......" screen lit up again.

"Producer: Yi Shuihan Studio

Director: Yang Muwen

Starring: Yi Shuihan, Chen Feng, Liang Jiahe, Liu Ruquan ......"

It is the "Infernal Affairs" that participated in the selection!

As soon as the movie was released, everyone cheered up.

You must know that this film is a heavyweight film with six nominations, and it also received an excellent box office last year, so naturally there are many judges who pay attention to it.

But this is important...... For the selection of "Infernal Affairs", it is not necessarily a good thing.

Because the judges will review the film with the most serious attitude, no matter what the flaws are, it will not escape their eyes.

The film officially began to be screened, and the ghosts, gods, and Buddhas against the gray background at the beginning also set the tone of the whole movie.

"The nineteenth volume of the Nirvana Sutra: The most of the eight hells, called the Infernal Hell. ”

"It's a little interesting......" judge Liang Shijie said secretly in his heart, as the executive director of the Chinese Screenwriters Society, he is very knowledgeable, touches the class, and naturally has a study of Buddhist scriptures.

He can understand the meaning of this sentence, and the idea is deep enough, but this also needs to be matched with the content in the movie and this sentence, otherwise it will become a pretense.

The movie played gradually, and everyone's attention was drawn to the content of the movie.

The film adopts a non-linear multi-narrative structure, which perfectly intertwines the fates of the two undercover agents.

In several confrontations between Liu Jianming and Chen Yongren, the clever use of cross-montage shows the nervous psychology of the two undercover agents respectively, and also gives a clear context to the narrative process.

In addition, Yang Muwen used various sports shots to control the rhythm of the film just right, which amazed many judges present.

For example, when Huang Zhicheng sacrificed and fell from a building, the director used a panning camera to show the focus of the surrounding characters' vision, so that the audience could feel their shocked mood.

During this period, psychological montage was also used to show the past of Chen Yongren and Huang Zhicheng, and the sound and picture counterpoint were used to combine the sound of gunfire and background music to create a heavy and sad atmosphere for the film, and the emotional ups and downs of the characters at this time were also maximized......

The focus of each judge is different, the review responsible for the best feature film is the quality of the whole film, the review responsible for the selection of the best feature film naturally looks at the overall construction, atmosphere, rationality and so on of the film, and the judge responsible for the best actor and best supporting actor naturally focuses on the acting skills of Yi Shuihan, Chen Feng, and Liang Jiahe.

Some admire, some frown, some admire, and the postures of each judge are different, but compared to the previous films, the judges seem to be more focused.

Two hours passed, and the film was nearing its end.

"Yes, the compact and proportionate narrative structure, which is good and which is evil, is an excellent suspense perception, and the irreplaceable pathos is rendered by fate, and the depth of human nature can be intriguingly excavated here......" Tang Mo secretly admired in his heart, pondered for a moment, and gave this movie a high score of nine points, which is the highest score given by the three movies he watched, of course, the difference will not be too big.

"The style is calm, subtle, and pays attention to the rhythm of the staggered order. Scenes such as rooftops, elevators, and underground garages, as well as the actors' meaningful dialogues, cast a veil of mystery over the film. In terms of the expression of the theme, the director digs deep and always conveys the humanitarian idea of compassion. At the beginning of the film, the director used the phrase "Eternal immortality, longevity is the catastrophe in the infernal hell" in the Buddhist scriptures to express the struggle and helplessness of people in the trapping, and at the same time hinted at the tragic fate of the two protagonists who could not be redeemed, conveyed the director's pessimistic fatalism, and also set a mysterious and serious tone for the film......" Liang Shijie also sighed after watching the whole movie, a few Buddhist scriptures that appeared in the movie corresponded to the characters in the movie one by one, which made him admire, so he wrote such a simple comment on the judge's cousin, and the score will naturally not be low, 8.5 points!

It's just that he attended as a judge for the best screenplay, and the score is naturally only related to the selection of the best screenplay.

In fact, if he could, he would prefer to rate this whole movie, it's so exciting!

said that it was a thorn, naturally it would not be all praise, and many judges also gave low scores.

"Overall, the quality is medium-high, but there is a suspicion of pretending to be deep, and there are a few flaws. ”

"The plot is a bit far-fetched, and the rationality is given up in order to create an atmosphere......"

This is also the most normal thing, in front of the most rigorous jury, even if the movie is perfect, they can still find flaws, but whoever has the least flaws will be the final winner.

Regarding this movie, whether it is good or bad, the review is at least unwavering.

But the judges for Best Actor were a little hesitant at this point, and two of the film's leading actors were nominated for Best Actor.

In terms of roles, Chen Yongren and Liu Jianming are indistinguishable, and in terms of acting skills, Yi Shuihan and Chen Feng are not distinguished, which is a bit difficult......
