Chapter 0242: Sister, I Miss You
In fact, it is no wonder that Liu Tao thinks that Zhou Lin is perverted, but the story of "I Want Revenge" is too challenging to human nature.
How cruel, ruthless, and bad can people become? "I Want Revenge" tells such a story.
After Zhou Lin finished talking about the plot, Liu Tao hugged his windbreaker tightly and said, "I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight." ”
Zhou Lin said: "Sister Liu doesn't like this story?"
Liu Tao shook his head: "It's not that I don't like it, it's just that I can't accept the fate of those people in the story, obviously they are not bad people......
Indeed, the story of "I Want Revenge" is actually a group of kind people who haven't done anything bad, just want to live well.
But when they were faced with various difficulties, they made some choices that they didn't know whether they were right or wrong, and the relationships between these people who had no intersection were intertwined, slaughtering each other, and finally none of them could die.
Such an ending is a bit confusing for many people.
Did they do something wrong? Doesn't seem to be.
Why did they end up like this? I don't know.
This kind of confusion will give birth to a more terrifying idea in the heart than the horror of the picture and story.
Fate is impermanent, fortune is impermanent, life is impermanent, and human kindness and rationality are too small under impermanence!
Zhou Lin sighed, when he first watched "I Want Revenge", wasn't he the same as Liu Tao.
However, after experiencing the baptism of so many cult film directors, he gradually got used to the cruelty and indifference in the film.
Because no matter how cold and cruel a movie is, it is a movie after all. And in life, there is a deeper and sharper cruelty and indifference that movies are far beyond the reach!
"I made a storyboard and put it in my hotel luggage. If you're interested, you can take it home and take it later. If you can accept the script, it's never too late to audition. Zhou Lin said.
Liu Tao said: "Okay." I'll get it later. ”
The two drank their beers and went back to the hotel.
When Zhou Lin was looking for the script, Liu Tao stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the hotel, looking at the night scene outside.
In 1999, Shencheng was already prosperous, as the electronics industry base in Asia, you can see a large area of factories in the distance. It produces electronic products that are supplied to the whole country, Asia, and the world. Nearby, the concrete city and the glittering nightlife, the perfect blend of cold and erosive, constitute the unpredictable night of the city.
"Found it. Zhou Lin pulled out the script from under a few clothes, turned around and handed it to Liu Tao.
Liu Tao turned the page curiously, and said with a little surprise: "There are still pictures?"
Zhou Lin smiled: "The painting is not good, it makes you laugh." ”
Liu Tao said very seriously: "No...... It's only the first time I've seen this kind of script that even uses cameras...... You can shoot it directly to the director. ”
Of course, Zhou Lin will not say that the movie is directly stored in the treasure trove of Chinese art in his mind, this kind of storyboard script may be difficult, but for him, it is just to watch the movie and write down every shot. Actually, it's not that difficult.
Liu Tao opened the script very curiously, originally just wanted to take a few looks, but as soon as he looked at it, he couldn't hold it back.
Zhou Lin silently poured her a cup of tea and put it next to her, and went to the bathroom to take a bath.
Shot 1: The camera slowly shifts to the left, and the picture shows the speaker, and the voiceover: The radio announcer broadcasts the letter of the protagonist Lu. ”
"Shot 2: Establishing space. ”
"Shots three to five, the voiceover continues. Image: Lu and his sister frolicking in a waterhole. ”
Shot 6: The siblings listen to the radio, and the camera moves right and up along the headphone connection. Falling on the tearful face of the sister, the voiceover continues. ”
Shot 7: The picture shows the backs of sisters and brothers embracing each other in the sunset. ”
……
Just an opening. Zhou Lin expressed every scene in the movie in words.
The opening scene seems simple, but in fact, there is a huge amount of information, and every shot is not wasted.
The first is to introduce the background of the characters, especially the background of the protagonist Lu is a deaf and mute.
The second is to introduce the location of the waterhole. The waterhole is the site of some of the most important events in the film. In the end, the protagonist also dies here, constituting a cycle of fate.
The third and most important is in speech. The props and modeling establish the intimate relationship between the sister and brother.
Crucially, voiceover is present in the first few shots, and sound is an extremely important factor in building the atmosphere.
Liu Tao was completely shocked when he read a page, and couldn't help but turn the page one by one.
Although I have already heard Zhou Lin tell the story. But when she really saw the storyboard script, she still trembled.
At the beginning, Liu Tao was from Lu's point of view, and when he saw that Lu was going to donate his kidney to save his sister, he was moved.
When Lu is cheated out of his kidney, she is also angry and understands that Lu went to kidnap the factory owner's daughter.
And when the boss's daughter drowned because Lu couldn't hear the cry for help, Liu Tao would also be resentful.
When Lu goes to the liar for revenge, her position is naturally on Lu's side.
But the cruelty of Lu's murderous methods made Liu Tao shake again, and he didn't know whether to sympathize with Lu or the liar who died tragically.
When the factory owner came to Lu for revenge, Liu Tao didn't know which side he should be on......
From beginning to end, this film does not require people to choose to take sides, but every viewer will unconsciously choose to stand from a certain angle to see the story happen.
Constant choices, constant hesitations, constant rebellions, and constant doubts, this film brutally tortures the ferocity and fragility of human nature.
Liu Tao looked cold. She was actually mentally prepared, but she still couldn't imagine that the story would be so cruel, so cold, and so indifferent to life!
A storyboard script is still like this, how shocking and terrifying it should be if it is really made into a movie!
"Bang", Liu Tao was startled by the sound behind him, turned his head suddenly, and saw Zhou Lin with wet hair coming out of the bathroom.
Zhou Lin was still wearing a T-shirt and trousers, just for fear that Liu Tao would misunderstand. Seeing her face full of panic, I thought that I had scared her, so I hurriedly said, "Sister, are you okay?"
Liu Tao stood up "Teng", threw away the script, walked all the way to Zhou Lin, and hugged him tightly with his hands outstretched.
Zhou Lin was a little stupid, thinking that Sister Liu only drank a bottle of beer today, what's wrong?
"Do you want me?" asked Liu Tao in a low voice.
It's not nonsense......
Zhou Lin said: "Sister, I miss you ......"
Before he could say the rest of the words, his mouth was sealed by something hot and soft!) )
