Chapter 257: The Premiere of the Film Version
After the Golden Dragon logo, the logos of several film companies were crossed in turn.
The movie officially begins.
There are no lengthy useless shots at the beginning, and the subtitles are only passing by, continuing the consistent Ou Can film style and quickly entering the plot.
Min Xue noticed that Ou Can's name appeared in the director team, and it seems that this person is also consciously going behind the scenes.
Acting and excellent is directing, trend. When many people are older, they will lose their thoughts about dangling in front of the screen, although Ou Can is only in his thirties.
Of course, it is only some people, and there are more people who want fame and fortune. Personal values are different, there is nothing right or wrong, no comment.
The screenwriter column is a person named Yiming, who is very familiar and seems to be the queen screenwriter of Ou Can Drama.
Min Xue did not participate in the screenwriting, of course he did not belong to this column, the name of the original book was learned and learned, and it flashed at the beginning of the film, except for real fans of the original book, not many people should care.
The opening plot of the movie is different from the entry point of the original book and the online drama version of "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night", starting from the tragedy.
This is normal, adaptation, everyone's thoughts must be different.
And to condense the story of more than 30 episodes into less than two hours, the story structure will definitely change.
Min Xue held the idea of learning and looked down with relish.
However, the more you look at it, the more suspicious life becomes, is this really chasing the murderer in the middle of the night?
Why do you think it's a little bit wrong?
First of all, the identity exchange relationship between the elder brother and the younger brother, the introduction of the movie is a little vague, not as simple and clear as the online drama, there is a feeling of playing deep and playing.
Again, only one crime is selected throughout the film.
Of course, there is no problem in choosing one.
Of course, movies will not choose so many cases like online dramas, and this is not conducive to telling the story.
But the case chosen by the movie does not belong to any of the fragments in the original book.
Screenwriter Yiming seems to be intent on showing his ability to control and create a new case, or a series of cases.
The story is roughly about a psychopathic killer who likes to play all kinds of new tricks to kill, such as killing people and then stripping them naked and stuffing them into amniotic fluid, stuffing their heads into stuffed toys, etc., which then caused social panic.
In order to turn the tide, the police team retrieved the brother, who wisely analyzed the case and gave a portrait, which can be said to be decent so far.
But since my brother came out, everything seems to have gone haywire.
In other words, the younger brother's character seems to have been set up as a comic attribute?
It's just that investigating the case doesn't help, and it often makes funny incidents, which makes people don't know whether to cry or laugh.
Maybe this is a commonly used character design technique in movies, one is positive and one is harmonious, one is responsible for pushing the plot, and the other is responsible for using life to be funny.
However, in this case, a bunch of inferences from the elder brother have become decorations, because the murderer was forced out under the younger brother's funny skills.
If there is another happy chase and the murderer is arrested, it can be regarded as an alternative funny happy ending.
Although it is not so "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night", it can be justified anyway, it can be regarded as a happy type detective movie. But how can the screenwriter be willing, what he wants is what the audience can't think of.
So, screenwriter Yiming gave the murderer a hanging.
In the case of the city's police pursuit, the murderer still calmly appeared on TV, don't ask me how I got on, I don't know!
What's more, this TV is the kind of station that can be watched on the streets and alleys at the same time, and the murderer also said something provocative to the police.
With such high ratings and epic status, businesses that want to advertise will definitely vomit blood and queue up to send money!
Forget it, let's not mention the reasonableness of these details.
Anyway, under a series of seemingly grand scenes, the murderer finally... I committed suicide in front of the police.
In the final scene, the criminal psychology of a serial killer is told through his brother's non-funny seriousness, well... This is the emotional sublimation of the whole film that screenwriter Yiming admits himself.
At the end of the play...
Not surprised?
Min Xue was speechless for a long time after watching it.
Are you sure the movie is really not hilarious?
Has a half-dime relationship with "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night"?
It's the same name!
If you have to let Min Xue summarize it, the first half hour of the movie is the time for the elder brother to pretend to be forced, the middle half hour is the younger brother's turn to tease, and the last half hour is completely unclear.
Isn't Ou Can known as a master of crime dramas?
Isn't that his usual style?
Of course, the whole movie is not without merit.
It is undeniable that Ou Can's acting skills can stand the test.
If you put the plot aside and give Ou Can's personal acting skills a score, Min Xue can give 90 points.
Whether it is the calm and wise of his brother or the teasing of his younger brother's newcomer, he plays a good role, and Pan Jianyan has its own merits, purely depending on the audience's acceptance.
Of course, it would be better if you didn't stuff a vase into it as the heroine.
The emotional drama between the brothers and the proprietress of the bar vase, Min Xue, who watched it, was also embarrassed to be a cancerous offender.
After all, no matter how good the acting skills are, they also need a plot to support them, unless the actor can be strong enough to make the audience ignore all this, and Ou Can obviously can't reach this realm.
In a word, Min Xue is not very optimistic about the prospects of this play.
Of course, the words of one family do not mean that the box office will be really bad.
And Min Xue also understands a little bit why this movie is different from Ou Can's previous style.
The success or failure of a movie is not determined by a script, and there are many factors.
But in any case, the most important part of it is the director.
The director of this movie has not changed, it is still the one who has collaborated with Ou Can in many plays before.
But as mentioned before, Ou Can is now also a member of the director team.
Min Xue believes that Ou Can is not only going in to be the mascot of the little star, but as one of the investors, he should have a greater say.
In the past, Ou Can only needed to be an actor, but now he also needs to take care of his identity as a director.
And when people look at things from a different perspective, the world changes wonderfully.
Horizontally look at the side of the ridge into a peak, the height of the distance is different, I don't know the true face of Lushan, only because I am in this mountain, that's how it comes.
Of course, how the movie is made, Min Xue alone does not count, it depends on the perception of most audiences.
Judging from the warm applause in the theater after the movie ended, the response seems to be good?
At least the stars in the front row have already gotten up and started to congratulate Ou Can.
Several people near Min Xue are also talking in low voices, thinking that although the style of the whole movie is slightly different from Ou Can's previous movies, there are more funny elements, which should be more attractive to the audience?
“......”
Min Xue has experienced the vicissitudes of life for the second time today...
Could it be that my brother has been out of touch with the times? I don't understand the aesthetics of the current audience at all!
