"Love Saint" is a comedy movie, just look at its other name, you can know what this drama is about - "Cheating Battle"

The plot is very simple, it is the male protagonist's mid-life crisis, living a married life without passion and enthusiasm all day long, meeting a woman who made him fall in love at first sight, and then with the help of a group of dead friends, create a series of dense laughs.

It's a bit similar to the meaning of the "Rotten Boys" and "Apatu Party" in Hollywood.

The biggest problem with this movie is that it is a bit too 'vulgar', the fishy smell is very strong, although there is no dew point, the screen is full of big beds, hormones, sperm, sexual innuendo, ambiguous, it is not too much to say that the three views are not correct.

Compared with the foreign film "American Beauty", which also depicts the male midlife crisis, the arrival of glamorous classmates also lights up the life of the male protagonist, but the film not only focuses the camera on the male protagonist's fantasy, but also accurately portrays the wife's self-loss state.

On the other hand, in "Love Saint", it only looks at the mental distress of the "cheating" husband, and ignores the practice of bringing harm to the wife, it is no wonder that the majority of female compatriots cannot find a reason to like it at all.

And, to be honest, all the female characters in "Love Saint" are failures, whether it is Youyou as a symbol of the goddess, or a funny female boss, and a wife who has nothing to do with sexiness, they all just serve the story development and laughter of the movie, they don't have any three-dimensionality and lack their own personality.

Therefore, the movie-watching team, which is still dominated by women so far, will definitely shout 'three views are not correct', 'straight male cancer' and the like.

And this critical business voice is far more fierce than "Charlotte".

After all, "Charlotte" is a work adapted from a drama, and its line ability far exceeds that of "Love Saint".

But, to be honest, comedy shouldn't be so demanding in itself.

What do you have to say about the three views, "Horror Live", "Horror Cruise" including "Fight Club", which of these three movies is a work with a very positive three views?

But these three works have high evaluations, and the professional ratings, including the audience ratings, are very high.

I didn't mention "The Woman in the Depths of the Mountains" because this movie forcibly weakens the crime of human trafficking, which is no longer a three-view, it is morality!

Speaking of "Love Saint", people will tell you clearly, this is an absurd comedy about 'cheating', and you have to let it face social problems, which is too demanding!

What's more, in 2016, domestic films collectively declined.

At that time, when "Love Saint" was released, it caught up with the peerless bad movie "The Ferryman", the schedule was appropriately chosen, and there was no comparison, there was no distinction between superior and inferior.

So it's not surprising that this small-budget comedy movie with an investment of less than 40 million finally won a box office result of 698 million.

Shen Lin didn't think much about directing this play at first, and it didn't quite match his usual style.

But there is no way, the timeline of rebirth is getting closer and closer, and there are really few movies that can barely be called good for him to choose.

Besides, he didn't say that he would definitely be the director, and when filming, he could hand over the burden to Song Xiaofei by the way!

Comparatively speaking, although the female audience of "Love Saint" does not like it very much, its reputation is still above a bunch of domestic movies in 2016.

Actually, he wants to shoot "Train to Busan" and "Crying", but Nima, this thing can't be localized at all...

……

Overall, the filming of "Love Saint" went very smoothly.

Except for Lao Xue, who was not born professionally, several other actors are quite good.

But Lao Xue's role was originally a cheap sycophant subordinate, which is very in line with his true colors!

"No, Sister Tang Wei, you feel a little arrogant, after all, you are his boss..."

The plot progressed to Marilyn, played by Tang Wei, who was released into the pigeons, and then retaliated in the parking lot.

Everything went pretty smoothly, the movement, the shape, including the expressions.

Except for the last shot, when the fork was broken into a disdainful shape, the look left behind made Shen Lin a little dissatisfied.

It's too cold, there's no sense of arrogance.

“… Okay, director, I'll try again. ”

Tang Wei probably thought about it and tried the play again.

Shen Lin motioned for Song Xiaofei to sit behind the monitor, the two looked at it roughly, nodded to each other, and signaled that filming could start.

Half an hour later, the transition, the office plot, and a simple rehearsal were all over again.

"Alas, it's still comfortable to work with professional actors!"

Shen Lin looked at the actors next to him with a little emotion, whether it was Qiao Shan, Nie Yuanyi or Xiao Shen Yang, they were all skilled actors.

"By the way, Deng Chao will come over tomorrow, and we will focus on filming his scene first. ”

"Okay. ”

Song Xiaofei nodded.

In fact, after filming, the entire crew, Shen Lin is not so much a director, but more like a producer, and it is more Song Xiaofei who performs the shooting task.

"At this rate, at most two months, we will almost be finished, and when the time comes, the post-processing will be based on your opinion. ”

"This isn't good, Director Shen..."

"It's okay, I don't know where I will be then!"

Shen Lin waved his hand, not minding at all.

That's right, the awards season has begun, and the quality of "Carol" is so high, I'm really sorry for Gong Li and Zhao Liying's hard performances if I don't strive for a wave of best foreign language films.

"But you must pay attention to the duration, up to 110 minutes, if there are jokes that are not easy to show, you can put them in the end credits. ”

"Wrap-up credits?"

"Well, make a few small jokes, for example, Liu Lei played by Xiao Shen Yang, he is a character who does not fit the positioning of a good person, we can make a picture of him feeding dog food alone in the tidbits at the end, indicating that he was abandoned by his girlfriend..."

"yes, we can also put some fun little jokes in the tidbits. ”

Song Xiaofei himself is very talented, and Shen Lin's words immediately reminded him.

"Director, how am I going to act later?"

Shen Lin was discussing the follow-up shooting with Song Xiaofei, and Tong Liya, who was wearing a white shirt, came over.

"I'll go over there first. ”

Song Xiaofei left very 'consciously'.

The entire crew, as long as they have eyes, can see that the relationship between Tong Liya and Shen Lin is not very normal.

In a place like the crew, it's not too normal for this kind of thing to happen.

To put it mildly, if the entertainment industry is a big show, then the crew is definitely the most hidden Asura under the show.

Scandals, discords, and unspoken rules are the easiest to break out of the scene is the crew.

Therefore, there is such an ambiguity between the director and the actress, which is not a matter at all, and I have long been accustomed to it!

“… Aren't you cold when you wear so little?"

As Shen Lin spoke, he cautiously looked up, the staff and actors were far away, and they were busy with their own affairs very tacitly.

"The texture of this shirt is very good, you see..."

I look at your sister!

"Why don't you touch it..."

"Ahem, Xiaofei, I'll go back first, and you'll be in charge of today's shooting. ”

Are these sisters going crazy?

This is especially in the filming venue, there are many people, no matter how secret it is, someone will always spread it!
