Chapter 242: Finalized Release
The screen was full of charm, but the audience was silent.
Unusually quiet.
Gu Lan grabbed Zeng Yi with his left hand and Zhang Bingqian with his right hand, his palms were slightly sweaty, and the three of them held each other's hands, staring at the picture in front of them without blinking, looking at the ghostly corners inside.
The movie has come to an end, and all the sneaky will finally be revealed to the world.
This is also the most attractive moment of the movie.
"For this movie, the sacrifice of the boss and Sister Xia is really big! Perhaps, this is the real actor. In the dark, Glenn suddenly remembered the first lesson of the actor's class, and whispered very convincingly.
Zeng Yi was slightly stunned, then nodded lightly and praised: "Yes." ”
Yang Qiu and Xia Meng's previous roles, such as progressive youths or fairy tramps, were all positive roles, but in this play, Yang Qiu became a pervert, and Xia Meng also played a 'silver woman' who regarded human life as a mustard.
These two characters, the positive characters are not counted, and they are not even normal characters.
It's all in a state of flux......
As you can imagine, this must be a big subversive!
A small half of the people in the test room were frightened by the movie, but the other half was shocked by the momentum of these actors who dared to act.
Now it is the 50s, an era of ideological emancipation, and it is also an era of ideological conservatism.
It is foreseeable that on the day of the release, I don't know how much criticism will be encountered.
When Zhang Shankun saw the beginning, he already understood how bold Yang Qiu was!
'I'm not as good as him......'
In a trance, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, which made Zhang Shankun himself a little stunned.
Smiled bitterly softly.
Meaningfully, Zhang Shankun turned his head to look at Yang Qiu, who was sitting on the other side of Chuan Xiduo and his wife.
The young man was also looking at his masterpiece with his eyes, perhaps satisfied with the state of everyone watching the movie, Yang Qiu, who had a slightly curved mouth, leaned comfortably on the seat, looking like Zhizhu was holding the bright moon in his heart.
Also......
Even though Zhang Shankun seems to have a lot of out-of-the-ordinary shots, I have to admit that as long as you calm down, this is indeed a good movie.
Thinking so, Zhang Shankun focused his eyes on the screen again.
The movie slowly came to an end, the ghosts completed redemption and revenge, and drifted away with the story, leaving only Huo Dutou, who loved Ah Ying deeply, standing in the compound with a strange face.
Around, there was a circle of onlookers, pale but indifferent.
In the silent soundtrack, there was another hoarse ghost howl.
Start with a trick and end with a trick.
The picture on the screen gradually darkened, but the test room was still silent.
After a long time, the lights in the testing room came on.
'Smack!'
One sound;
'Smack!'
Two tones;
'Bang Bang Bang ——!'
First one person, then another person, and within two clicks, there was a lively applause in the test room.
'Bang Bang Bang
The applause continued.
YANG QIU SMILED AND GLANCED LEFT AND RIGHT, AND WAS ABOUT TO STAND UP TO SAY TWO WORDS OF THANKS, BUT WAS SUDDENLY GRABBED BY MS. KASHIKO SITTING NEXT TO HIM.
BEFORE HE COULD RECOVER FROM HIS SURPRISE, HE HEARD MS. KASHIKO NOD LIGHTLY AND SAID EXCITEDLY: "MR. YANG, YOUR MOVIE IS REALLY GOOD!, IT IS DEFINITELY ONE OF THE BEST ART FILMS I HAVE SEEN OVER THE YEARS!"
Well, she treated it like an art film.
However, judging from the unusual subject matter and content of this movie, it can indeed afford the standard of avant-garde art films.
"Thank you, thank you, Ms. KASHIKO, for your love!" Yang Qiu replied softly with the corners of his mouth curled.
YANG QIU WAS NOT SURPRISED THAT THE MOVIE COULD BE LIKED BY MS. KASHIKO, OTHERWISE HE WOULD NOT BE IN A HURRY, SO HE INVITED KAWAKITA AND HIS WIFE OVER.
The fifties were the time when feminist consciousness began to awaken on a large scale.
MS. KASHIKO IS NO EXCEPTION.
And she obviously had to be earlier, or she wouldn't have been introduced to Neon in the thirties, despite her husband's slight opposition.
It was the world's first lesbian film.
, considered to be the vanguard of the gay and feminist liberation movement, caused a strong reaction in Europe at the time.
MS. KASHIKO COULD NOT HAVE KNOWN WHAT THIS FILM MEANT FOR ASIA.
But she brought it in anyway.
And this movie, although it is structural on the surface, what it really criticizes is the oppression of women and human nature by feudal etiquette.
Strictly speaking, it can also be seen as a feminist movie.
In terms of plot and thought, it is harmonious, and it has the same effect.
IN ASIA, WHICH IS STILL A BIT CONSERVATIVE IN TODAY'S THINKING, MS. KASHIKO IS NATURALLY VERY HAPPY TO SEE AN ASIAN MAKE SUCH A MOVIE.
Not to mention, the film also contains so much Japanese style.
It's just-
LET MS. KASHIKO LOVE IT TO THE BONE.
"Miss Xia, your performance in the movie is really ...... Amazing!" AFTER THANKING YANG QIU, MS. KASHIKO GRABBED XIA MENG'S HANDS AGAIN, LOOKED AT THE GIRL IN FRONT OF HER WITH BRIGHT EYES, AND BEGAN A NEW ADMIRATION.
PERHAPS BECAUSE HE WAS ASHAMED OF HIS PERFORMANCE IN THE MOVIE, OR BECAUSE HE WAS NOT WORTHY OF MS. KASHIKO'S PRAISE, XIA MENG'S FACE WAS SLIGHTLY RED AND HE SAID A LITTLE SHYLY: "MADAM, YOU HAVE AN OVERREPUTATION." ”
"It's not a ......"
"Mr. Yang, this movie of yours really impresses me. Chuan Xi Duo Changzheng also stood in front of Yang Qiu, smiled and congratulated him: "I thought at first that this movie was the same, it was also a pure imitation movie, but I didn't expect you to really give us a big surprise." ”
"Thanks for the compliment. "Yang Qiu's face is much thicker than Xia Meng's.
"Haha-"
Both of them laughed heartily, which caused many people at the scene to look over.
MS. KASHIKO THEN WALKED BACK AGAIN, STOOD BESIDE A FEW PEOPLE AND LOOKED AT YANG QIU AND SAID, "MR. YANG, I WANT TO RELEASE IT TO NEON THROUGH DONGHE, WHAT DO YOU THINK?"
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Shankun's hand shook slightly, and he looked at Yang Qiu with a solemn expression.
The release of the movie to Neon is a benefit that he has never reaped as a friend of Kawakita.
I didn't expect it to be now......
YANG QIU WAS SLIGHTLY STUNNED FOR A MOMENT, THEN NODDED WITH A SMILE AND SAID, "IT'S NOT AN HONOR!" MR. KAWAKITA, MS. KASHIKO, HOW ABOUT WE GO TO MY OFFICE TO TALK IN DETAIL?"
"Good. ”
"Please!"
……
The distribution negotiations went smoothly, after all, both parties wanted to release the film to Neon.
Therefore, Yang Qiu handed over the neon distribution rights to Kawakita Nagamasa's Donghe Pictures, as for whether he wanted to distribute the film to Toho or Shochiku, it was not up to Yang Qiu to control.
BECAUSE OF HER LOVE FOR THIS FILM, MS. KASHIKO EVEN AGREED TO THE CO-SCREENING RIGHTS OF 30 THEATERS IN ONE GO.
Of course, there are only thirty at most.
In addition to limiting the number of films outside Hollywood, Neon also limited the number of theaters for the local distribution of foreign films, stipulating that a film can only be released in 30 theaters at the same time.
However, this is already better than in previous years.
Before 1951, neon's film censorship power fell into the hands of the U.S. military stationed in Japan, and whatever movie neon people wanted to watch, they had to pass the American hurdle first.
Just last year, Neon Talent just got the movie censorship rights back.
As for the limited edition of these thirty movie theaters, it is estimated that it will not last long, and now the neon movie theaters are growing explosively, and it can't be supported by the film production of neon.
It will be a matter of time before the restrictions on joint screenings are lifted.
Of course, now Yang Qiu's this one will definitely not be able to catch up.
Having finalized the most important thing at present, Yang Qiu made up his mind, and as for the release in this port in a few days, he didn't pay much attention to it.
In a good mood, he planned to have a banquet for Chuan Xiduo and Zhang Shankun and his wife in the Huibin Building.
Thinking that his side was thin, he planned to pull Li Hanxiang, who was in the post-production after filming, but he just looked around on the set, and even looked at the editing room, but he didn't find anyone.
As a result, when I inquired, I learned that Li Hanxiang skipped work early to play mahjong.
