Chapter 489: Reversal

"Life of Pi" was released simultaneously around the world, and because of the time difference, audiences around the world watched it sooner or later, but this had little impact.

Gan Jing sat in the second row, the experience of watching the movie here was actually not good, but he had no objections, and he also had expectations for the film in his heart.

He had seen the first cut of the film when he was fighting for special effects on Warner's side, and now the audience acting as a second time naturally pays more attention to the difference in editing.

In the first cut, this film shows mostly special effects, the changing wind and waves at sea, and the vivid tiger on a small boat, but in the official version, Ang Lee made some adjustments at the beginning.

The film begins with flashbacks, allowing the middle-aged Pie to recount the experience to the guests, and then framing the story from Pai's childhood in the transition of light and shadow.

The origin of the name, the background of the family, the meaning of religion.

In the eyes of the audience watching the movie for the first time, the processing of these details is that the picture is very delicate and the narrative rhythm is quite slow, but there are other waves in Gan Jing's heart.

The role in this play should be the role he has studied the most and integrated into the most profound role, so every trace of the later scenes and plots are engraved in his heart.

The plot on the big screen is moving forward.

A meaningful dinner takes place at Pie's home.

As a child, he was ignorant of religion, claiming to be a Hindu, Christian, and I-Christian, while his father believed in modern science and his mother was religious.

- "If you believe in three more religions, you will be able to celebrate a different festival every day." "This is Pai's father's ridicule.

- "Believing anything is the same as believing nothing." "This is the persuasion of the father.

- "In the past 100 years, science has led us to understand the depth of the universe far beyond the achievements of religion for thousands of years. "That's the reason for sending fathers.

However, Pie's mother gave the words: "Science can help us understand the outer world, but the inner world cannot." ”

After a conversation at the dinner table, at the end of the day, the childhood pie said, "I want to be baptized." ”

There is no doubt that the choice of the faction who said such things was inclined towards the mother, but also towards religious beliefs.

This is the explanation for his subsequent series of actions, and it is also the spiritual source of his eventual survival.

After this dinner, the plot continues.

The encounter between Pie and Tiger, and the decision to move abroad due to the country's situation.

The released version of "Life of Pi" has a total length of 127 minutes, if it is just a simple childhood story, if it is just a simple drifting on the sea - even if it is with a tiger, if it is just a simple middle-aged memory, this story will be a little lackluster.

A film that is exquisitely crafted, has big actors, has fascinating special effects, and is famous for its director is not necessarily a good film, even if it has good box office results, because it is likely to be the future of overdrafted directors and actors.

Gan Jing is amazed by the special effects of this film, not from the perspective of an audience member sitting in the second row, nor from the perspective of him being the main actor in it, but because he is one of the bosses of the special effects side of this film.

Sitting in front of the screen and wearing 3D glasses, Gan Jing couldn't stop admiring when the movie was shown at sea.

He was also careful to observe the reactions of the others, and was a little worried about whether they would be distracted by the slight weakness of this section, but fortunately, the realistic special effects managed to retain everyone's attention, and he could hear the occasional smack.

"This storm ......"

"This Tiger ......"

"Is this Forrest Gump?"

At this time, the special effects of a blockbuster movie are still eye-catching.

Gan Jing silently reflected on his own view of good films, and felt that he should not be separated from the masses, although he had merged with a good domestic special effects company in Huaxia, although he provided good resources for Huaxia special effects, although Huaxia special effects successfully leveraged Hollywood blockbusters......

That's not to be proud!

That can't be separated from the masses!

Most of the audience at the scene were not distracted by Ganjing's distraction, they were still watching intently, only some critics were thinking that the progress of this film does not seem to be able to hit the Oscars.

Lonely Ships, Storms, Strange Islands.

Panic, despair, tranquility.

Gan Jing's weight loss pie is naturally very good at expressing the emotions of the character, and the drifting on the ocean has also reached the top level of Hollywood with the full polishing of Huaxia special effects.

Even if the film ends at the moment when the lonely boat floats on the shore and the tiger disappears into the jungle, this level of special effects is worth the audience's ticket money.

Many viewers looked at the time and felt that the film was almost at the end.

But almost everyone didn't expect that the biggest reversal of this story was at the end of the film.

"That is, the zebra and the sailor broke their legs, and the hyena killed the zebra and the orangutan, so the cook is the hyena, the sailor is the zebra, and your mother is the orangutan. ”

"That'...... You are...... Tiger. ”

When the second story was told at the end of the film on the big screen, everyone in the audience was stunned - it was a 127-minute movie, so were we watching a 110-minute fake story?

Some of the audience were shocked, some were confused, and many tried to sort out the correspondence between the two stories in their minds, but the answer has been given in the film.

Originally, some of the audience in the screening hall had habitually relaxed and began to distract, but this reversal at the end of the film really really caught everyone's attention tightly on the screen.

"May I ask a question?" asked the pie in his seat, with a calm face, "I have told two versions of the story at sea, neither of which has shed light on the cause of the shipwreck, and no one has been able to prove their true or false. ”

"So which story do you prefer?"

Pie's slow question got the answer of the guest in the film, "the one with the tiger", but this question was not answered in the audience's mind for a while.

127 minutes, originally the title of the film was fantasy drifting, I sat down and watched it for 110 minutes, and I thought this was the story of a teenager and a tiger, but, but, ......

This is completely different from what I imagined?

This ending is reversed too abruptly, but it seems to correspond very tightly, huh?

Is there a hint of the second story in the front?

The big screen slowly dimmed, but the audience wanted it to be lit up again and watch it a second time, and re-explore the clues of the two stories!
