"What, I thought it was the legendary widescreen......"

As soon as the movie opened, I saw that on the wide screen, there was only a small square frame, and Xi Chongjian, who was looking forward to the widescreen movie for a long time, was suddenly a little disappointed.

It's not just him.

The other six students at the scene all showed a trace of loss on their faces.

Except for Zhang Bingqian......

Obviously, everyone has strong expectations for the widescreen movie that has just been touted by Zhang Bingqian for a long time, but they unanimously forget to consider reality.

Not to mention Europe and the United States, even in the whole of Asia, there is not a truly open widescreen theater.

At this time, if a widescreen movie is made, where can it be played?

However, sitting in the last row, Xi Chongjian's complaints, obviously did not affect the viewing experience of the big guys in the front row, as the projector turntable rotated all the way, the movie screen changed from gray to bright, and the story officially began.

It's just that at the beginning of this movie, the subtitles were still playing on the black screen, and everyone was suddenly startled.

Everyone heard a burst of hoarse female voices like ghosts crying wolves suddenly came from the originally silent speakers on both sides of the screen.

Yes...... Oh...... Yes...... Oh......

The voice, low and cold!

With the swarthy viewing environment, although there is no trace of the picture on the screen, it makes everyone shudder.

In the hearts of all moviegoers, they couldn't help but have a few strange feelings that couldn't be explained.

Even Xi Chongjian, who was absent-minded at the beginning, shrank his neck subconsciously, turned his head and looked at the classmate next to him.

I just feel uncomfortable.

The screen suddenly lit up, and a woman with a pale face appeared in the picture with an expressionless face, and then was tortured to ride a wooden donkey.

Under the ghostly background, blood splattered down and dripped onto the woman's pale feet.

Seeing this, the male compatriots were nothing, but the women's faces changed, and they all felt a little uncomfortable in their lower abdomen, so they quietly adjusted their sitting posture.

The footage continues.

In front of the gate of the big house, a group of people with the same pale faces and expressionless faces watched this scene quietly.

Wang Yuanlong, dressed as an ancient, led his 'daughter' Xiao Shufang, and also stood in the middle of the crowd with a blank face.

"Ah Ying, my mother is a silver woman, we don't want her. Wang Yuanlong pulled Xiao Shufang's hand high on his chest and said coldly.

In the dark sky, the woman rode a wooden donkey and paraded through the streets.

A wild man stepped out of the crowd and sang loudly as he followed the wooden donkey.

"Curved eyebrows, tender neck;

The eyes of water;

Fragrant lips.

How lush the saffron flowers on the grave are!

Hmph, hmph

……”

The camera changed, and Xiao Shufang, who was held in Wang Yuanlong's hand, suddenly looked at the camera and opened her mouth wide, and her expression was ghostly and her voice was hoarse and screamed twice.

"Mom-Mom-"

The first scene of the movie is over, but the feeling given to everyone has been deposited in their hearts for a long time.

Such a weird movie, it's just ......

Unheard!

Right!

It's unheard of!

For the eight students, the weirdness of this movie is even more bizarre than "Rashomon" that the company asked them to watch not long ago.

The voice acting is spooky;

The characters are weird;

The lyrics are eerie;

Everything, there is a trace of weirdness!

At a glance, people feel a little chill in their hearts.

Creeps!

But ......

Cannot help doing something!

The dopamine released by the brain under inexplicable fear brings a kind of fear-like pleasure to everyone, making people's hearts beat faster, blood and adrenaline soaring.

The moment you are most afraid is also the time when you are the happiest.

This is the real reason why horror movies are scary, but they can make people want to stop.

"A Baby" is such an evil movie, which naturally makes these people who have never been exposed to this kind of movie fall into it all of a sudden.

Of course, only if you watch it first.

And when the other people in the test room were in a trance, the Kawakita couple, who were sitting in the front row and watching the movie seriously, felt a little surprised.

The opening scene is still uncertain, but as the movie continues to advance, the pictures and music continue to increase, but they are sure of it at once.

Noh!

It's Japanese Noh!

In other words, this movie, in terms of overall style, is very Noh.

Noh is not simply a form of music, but a collective term for a similar form of Japanese stage theatre that is as famous as Kabuki.

Its name means 'performing arts with a plot' in Japanese.

It includes plots, costumes, performances, music, and more!

If you simply imagine that you put those Kabuki white-faced performances with some Japanese low-pitched horror music, it will have a very good Noh feeling.

Although Noh was officially named in the Meiji period, it began to take shape and develop as early as the 12th century, and at first it was for temples and shrines, with a rather strange color, but with the development of the neon samurai group, it also began to slowly develop into the people.

Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi were both lovers and promoters of Noh.

In the second half of the twentieth century, Noh was integrated with Japanese weird films, resulting in the neon film industry creating some of the best weird films.

For example, the 1964 classic movie "Strange Talk".

However, Noh is an indispensable part of the development of Japanese horror films.

But now it's 1952......

There are basically very few weird movies, except for Keisuke Kinoshita's "Yotsuya Strange Talk" in 1949.

It didn't develop at all.

Not to mention the combination with Noh.

Speaking of the development of weird movies, it wasn't until 1957 that neon TV sets began to rise, and the film industry began to shoot a large number of weird movies in order to compete with TV sets.

This has led to the quest for new developments in the genre of weird stories, combined with various neon native arts, to create fruitful results.

As a result, exquisite lighting sets, strange sound effects, serious horror atmosphere, and ancient costumes became the basic characteristics of weird movies at that time.

As mentioned earlier, "A Baby" is a very Japanese-style horror movie.

Except for the costumes, props and language, you may not feel that this is a Chinese film, and the colors, characters and soundtrack in it have a very strong Noh color.

This is obviously the later "A Baby", which borrowed a lot of Japanese-style weird movies in art, and the result of the combination of China and Japan.

Therefore, the movie "A Baby" is actually not extremely good in the 21st century.

But now 1952......

There is no film to borrow in front of "A Baby"!

This kind of 'innovation' that combines the story of the movie with Noh naturally attracted the eyes of Mr. and Mrs. Kawakita, who are neon people.

It made them watch it at once.

With the development of the plot of the movie, a "Rashomon"-like structure is gradually revealed in front of everyone.

is different from "Rashomon", the movie "Ah Ying" does not focus on criticizing the selfishness of human nature, but tells everyone who is the murderer early, and then directly points the finger at the harmful feudal etiquette.

The many female viewers at the scene were frightened, red-faced, and indignant!

Seven emotions and six desires, and so on...... 8)
