What kind of inspiration did Director Wu Da have?

This first has to start with the movie "Boyhood".

As far as this movie is concerned, in fact, we Chinese fans are still very familiar with it, because there are countless fans who regard this movie as a masterpiece, and this movie is definitely a must-see film for contemporary literary and artistic youth, although this movie has not been introduced into China.

Well, this has definitely added countless spray points to radio and television and China Film, how can you introduce such an excellent movie?

Wu Xiang doesn't need to pay attention to these things, because it's really not important, it's better to watch this movie, the most eye-catching thing about this movie is that this is a movie that took twelve years to complete.

It has been twelve years, and the story of this movie also records the life of a teenager, from 6 to 18 years old, so she is called "Boyhood".

I have to say that the director of this film, Richard Linklater, is definitely a director who makes movies with his heart, he is very patient, chooses a child, and then just like that, every year during the summer vacation, he finds his old friend Ethan Hawke, and has to bring his daughter with him, and everyone starts work again.

Really, not to mention anything else, just this attitude towards art, so many people can only look at it, this movie really draws a clear line with commercial films, but any movie with a little commercial element can't be made for so long.

And. This is a film that has won numerous awards, almost sweeping last year's major film awards. It's just that I didn't expect to be killed by "Birdman" in one fell swoop at the Oscars. And other awards have also ended up in an embarrassing situation.

Let's put it this way, "Boyhood" is indeed a good movie, which is undeniable, but to be said to be a god film, to be honest, there is still a bit of a distance.

Why did "Birdman" win the Oscar? This is not only because she is better at the box office, but mainly because. In terms of cinematic techniques, as well as metaphors for reality, and in many ways, "Birdman" is indeed more superb......

Well, these are not important, what really matters is that the 12 years spent on "Boyhood" gave Wu Xiang inspiration!

What is Haiqing doing now?

She is in the cottage "Boyhood", and is going to make a similar film for her son. Of course, this film will never be released, she wants to keep it for herself, but. Wu Xiang thought of it, why didn't he make a similar film?

Well, this is also a copycat. Fit?

Wu Xiang is going to be a copycat again, so what kind of film is he going to make?

"Xiaohai. What if I made a movie like "Boyhood?"

"What? Are you going to expose our son to the world?"

The ball was also watched, and the family of three comforted the young man in the basket. Then he naturally went home, and Wu Xiang also said his plan, but he didn't expect his daughter-in-law to react like this.

"I didn't say slap our son. Wu Xiang's answer was still good, because he still adhered to the principle that his son could not be exposed, he thought that his daughter-in-law would be satisfied, but he didn't expect that his daughter-in-law put her hands on her waist.

"Then who do you want to photograph? You have no conscience, you don't shoot if you have a son, you shoot other people's youth?"

"......" Wu Xiang only had Curator Jin's expression left at that time.

Actually, what people said is right, as a big director, he doesn't shoot with his ready-made son, and he ends up filming others, which is really wrong, you know, people Linklink also filmed his own daughter, but ......

"Isn't our family in special conditions, daughter-in-law, you don't want your son to be in any danger, right? Then Li Chaoren's son almost had an accident back then, right?"

"Are you still compared to Li Chaoren?" Okay, the daughter-in-law doesn't know all the assets of their family's Lao Wu, and she can't manage so much money, so she simply won't look at it, "However, there is indeed a danger in this regard, even if you still have some conscience, then tell me, who are you going to shoot?"

Fortunately, Wu Xiang's conscience has finally returned, hey~ Director Wu's status at home can be seen.

"I'm going to shoot a crooked nut this time. "Wu Xiang can be regarded as saying all his thoughts.

"Crooked nuts?" the daughter-in-law frowned when she heard this, "Your cottage is too obvious, right? will be scolded by others, how good it is to shoot a Chinese, at least no one on our side has done this." ”

Hey, even the daughter-in-law can see that Wu Xiang's idea is too copycat.

"Well, you don't know my whole thoughts and intentions. ”

"Say!"

Next, this Wu Xiang can only be explained in detail.

In fact, Wu Xiang thought of copycat this time...... Oh, if you knew his true purpose, it wouldn't be like that.

First of all, what is the story?

Wu Xiang is preparing a movie without a script, to put it bluntly, for now, he is not going to stipulate anything, he just wants to learn from a technique of "Boyhood", that is, to find a group of people and let them come over to shoot a scene every year, and use the real passage of time to be all the story of the movie.

But you must know that "Boyhood" also has a script, it also has a role, and it is also a performance, it is not completely true, and Wu Xiang's this, he is not ready to stipulate anything, he is not allowed to use the script to restrain anyone, including himself.

"It's a lot like a documentary!" Hai Qing made such a comment immediately after hearing this crazy idea.

"It should be said that it is more documentary than a documentary!" Wu Xiang's words are actually aimed at a sensational documentary, that film really created a precedent for documentaries, and we have to admit that Americans are indeed creative.

Wu Xiang's idea is that we use movies to record all the real things, and then use these things. to compose a film, so what does this film show?

"Look at "Boyhood". No, there are a lot of ......."

Before Wu Xiang finished speaking, the daughter-in-law over there took it. "Classic oldies?"

Well, the boyhood did give us the impression that growing up was accompanied by classic pop music, but Wu Xiang didn't want to shoot like this, he was really not an expert in music.

"It's current affairs, and it's interspersed with a lot of news, as well as comments on these news, and we can see it anyway. How much the American people hate George W. Bush. ”

"Hahaha...... That's right, that's what you're good at. ”

I have to say that Hai Qing still knows Wu Xiang very well.

"I don't do any scripts, but I will intersperse some international current events in the film, and these international current events are all reported by the American media, all of them are their perspectives, their tendencies, daughter-in-law. Got it?"

Got it?

"Do you understand what? Isn't it just something reported in the American media? Is there anything special?"

"Hey, hey......" Wu Xiang smiled, "It's nothing special, but some of the details in it are different from ours." ”

"Oh. I understand!" Finally, Comrade Haiqing figured it out.

The US media have their own special tendencies when reporting on international current affairs. For example, if something goes wrong on our side, it's obviously a terrorist activity. But they just don't add the word horror, do they?

In fact. Not only these, but all kinds of things, they have been filtered, such as what kind of progress China's economy has made, but in front of the American people, that is, although there is progress, but there is a huge hidden crisis, it seems that next year, oh no, tomorrow, China's economy will collapse!

This is not something that some people sing, such as Zhang Jiadun and his ilk, this is something that the American media often transmits, and it is habitual thinking, and they want the American people to see it this way.

"But, so what?" Although Haiqing understood, what was the point of such a movie?

You must know that this kind of thing, as long as you have been exposed to some European and American media reports, you will understand, and even say that many Americans who have watched it, they don't believe the statements of the European and American media, because there are really too many singing declines, but the result is that every year when they sing, China has not declined at all, but is getting more and more powerful.

The fact is that it is slapped in the face, what is the use of you Wu Xiang making such a movie to slap the media in the face now?

"Have you forgotten, didn't you say that you want to learn from "Boyhood"?" didn't expect Wu Xiang to say it so simply and easily.

""Boyhood"?" After thinking about it for a while, Hai Qing suddenly realized, "You mean, 12 years later, ......"

12 years, yes!

However, Wu Xiang interjected this time, "It's not 12 years, it's 20 years, my plan is to gamble for 20 years!"

"Twenty years?" "My husband's plan is very grand, and it will be 20 years later.

"My idea is that our film is a record of an American who has been influenced by the American media in these 20 years, so that everyone can see what Americans think of us in China in such an atmosphere. Of course, this is only one part of the story, and this film can also document the changes in the United States in the past two decades, and of course, the changes in China, and in the end, what do you think the ending will be?"

"The Final Ending......"

Haiqing can't imagine it, really can't imagine it, because that was twenty years later, who would say it well?

But!

"Daughter-in-law, let me tell you this, I am very confident, really, it must be a very interesting ending. Wu Xiang seemed to see the future, and his face was filled with that kind of confidence that was impossible to despise.

"Then I'll go to shoot a Chinese for twenty years, hahaha......" Obviously, Haiqing is already doing this.

"Of course, whatever you want. That's what I said, but Wu Xiang's action, "The egg girl is asleep, right?"

"Hahaha...... You tap ......"

"It's so boring!"

"Die! hahaha......"

"Seriously, let's have another one!"

"Giggles, then you'll have to work hard......"

"Good!"

Squeaky ...... The bed seemed to have to be changed.

What's that, it seems that the US imperialists are also deflated on the Yemen side, of course, we saw that one of Da Mao's restaurants was smashed, hey~ But the US imperialists are not much better, many Americans are trapped in Yemen, and the US imperialists did not evacuate overseas Chinese and did not take care of them...... These individuals are all Americans, to put it bluntly, many of them are legendary leading parties, quite a lot.

I can't say much about the black car, thank you all!
