55. Actress
"I use all my enthusiasm to recommend this film to everyone, it has a fresh picture like a city propaganda documentary and a simple story, but it can touch the hearts of the characters somewhere, and the whole story revolves around an angelic girl, she is passionate, beautiful and has a sense of justice......"
The first review of "The Dancing Elephant" appeared in the film forum fifteen minutes after the first film was screened, and the person who posted the film review was quite famous in the forum, his taste has always been fresh and elegant, and most of the films reviewed were of this genre.
But this time it was different, and he used his passionate brushstrokes to introduce a story full of gray colors.
“…… We are against violence, but we never know what violence in life can ruin, and this movie really tells you that in those corners that we ignore, violence is killing the possible good. ”
"When the girl lifted the stool to the teacher and shed tears, I swore I hadn't cried so miserably since I was fifteen. At that moment, I really saw a cute baby elephant, it was lively and moving, but it was bloodied by the rope around its neck, and it was shouting 'help' with its tears. The people who were called for help were only afraid of the ridiculous wooden stool in her hand. ”
-- This is another film critic who, after this brief comment, sat back in the screening room and began to watch "The Dancing Elephant" a second time.
"When the girl's mother said to her, 'You're your daddy's child,' I broke down with her. What can completely destroy the heart of a knight? Sue her, she is a child of the devil, and she is destined to be a demon too. ”
"Fifteen minutes before the opening, I decided to go to the city where the movie was filmed, the scenery is so beautiful! After the opening fifteen minutes I wondered if there really was a girl named 'Spring' in this world, her good and evil were so real and contagious that I couldn't help but want to fall in love with her. ”
"Maybe there really are black-haired, yellow-skinned angels in the world? No, I'm not racist...... Well, I did think that blonde angels were the standard. ”
Late at night, Denis Ferdinand, sitting in front of the computer, adjusted his breath after reading all the reviews and began to write his own film review.
He watched the movie two and a half times from noon to night, for which he did not even eat dinner. Of course, now he was far more spiritually abundant than his hungry stomach, and an urge to talk compelled him to write something now.
"A good movie is a carnival of the spirit, and today our carnival came so suddenly, so excited that I still don't understand why someone would put a simple story so moving.
Independent films from East Asia always give us the same stereotype as their counterparts, who are keen to show the difference between their country and the European and American worlds, and whose bizarre social relationships and distorted values are at the heart of their storytelling. Those stories can satisfy our curiosity and momentary shock, in fact, it is difficult for us to have 'empathy'...... "Dancing Elephant" is completely different from the aforementioned one, it chooses the simplest social environment - family and school, and it shows you the most straightforward and bad side of people, and the spirit carried on it no longer belongs to one country, but belongs to all people in the world. It inspires people to think, 'Why should we fight violence?'...... The protagonist of the film is a complex character, and her goodness is just as impressive as her little evil...... The scene where the heroine's father beats her is thrilling to me, and I can even feel real pain, of course I know that it was just my hallucination, not that the film was cursed by mysterious Oriental witchcraft...... The tragedy of the whole film is spiraling, and untying any single link in it will not free the heroine from her tragic fate......"
"The script itself is wonderful, and the transitions between the characters are full of academic sophistication but lack of imagination. Thanks to the fact that they met such an actor, the actress's performance made me doubt that she was the character herself, so she was able to express the twists and pains of those feelings so realistically...... It would be nice if she was the character herself. ”
"Violent fathers, mothers who ignore their daughters, teachers and schools who want to think more about the safety of their students, classmates who think that the heroine is crazy, each of them is a straw that crushes the girl, and the scary thing is that each of us may play one of these roles in life. ”
People are analysing the film from all angles, trying to get a taste of why a simple story of less than an hour and a half can shock you.
Beginning the next day, the screening hall of "Dancing Little Elephant" was full, and the exhibitors temporarily moved the screening venue from the small hall to the medium-sized screening hall, which can accommodate more than 260 people.
A few days later, the results were announced, and "Dancing Elephant" won two awards for Best Actress and the Most Social Film, becoming the biggest dark horse of this year's film festival.
The person who took the stage to accept the award and speak in place of Chi Chi was Wen Xinping, who participated in the film festival as a producer, and in front of the camera and countless flashes, he slowly pulled out a piece of paper.
"Thank you to the organizing committee of the film festival, to the thousands of viewers who participated in the voting, to all the guests, and even more to all the people who supported and helped me in the filming, thank you for giving this film a chance and giving me a chance......
Before making this film, I thought of acting as my dream, and dreams have always been a very personal thing. After filming "Dancing Little Elephant", I found that acting is a very meaningful thing, if the appearance of a Lin Qiu can make the world one less Lin Qiu, then the great satisfaction I get is far greater than the movie itself I chase.
Thank you all again and thank you...... Uncle Wen, if you don't have the trouble of winning the award and burning the speech, you feel too ashamed to write it......"
Wen Xinping read it down in one breath, and actually read out all the notes written by Chi Chi, and the simultaneous interpreter standing in the corner of the podium also translated his words truthfully.
The audience was a little confused.
Wen Xinping realized what he had read after reading it, and he froze on stage, perhaps frightened by his "stupidity".
Chi Chi girl finally got what she should get, but she ruined the first award ceremony in her life?
"I'm very, I'm sorry, I ...... I seem to have messed up the first award ceremony in Chi Chi's life, she is a very, very good actor, and a very, very good girl, before I met her, as a film practitioner, I didn't know that making a movie could change people's lives, and now I know that our family has been changed by her. Thanks to her dedication and perseverance, she has given much more than everyone here imagined, and I regret that she was not able to accept the award in person today......"
The audience was quiet, the man's expression was a little panicked, he didn't know what he was talking about anymore.
The audience gradually burst into applause, and people looked at the middle-aged man who didn't know what to say or do with a smile, and didn't care about the small mistakes he made.
A round of applause to the seventeen-year-old girl who didn't have time to accept the award in person, and to this group of ordinary people who are trying to make a good movie.
At this time, Chi Chi, who was far away on the other side of the continent, was watching his partner being "tossed" by Du An.
Her "partner" is called Tang Weiyuan, who is Chinese New Year's Eve four years old today and is a popular first-line actor.
Du An's desire to find a suitable actor to film naturally has to break his head and squeeze up, so the focus is not on who will be the actor, but Du An's choice of Tang Weiyuan - he just broke up with his girlfriend a month ago, because his girlfriend was with his "friends" in the entertainment industry.
The whole incident is like a big drama, the commotion and commotion ended for half a month, first the woman preemptively reprimanded Tang Weiyuan in front of reporters for not cherishing and not caring for him, and then his "friend" posted a long Weibo to tell his feelings for the woman and his guilt towards Tang Weiyuan, and then the woman's agent hinted that Tang Weiyuan had violent tendencies towards his girlfriend......
Obviously, Tang Weiyuan was the de facto victim, and under the sound of public opinion, he was almost ruined.
In the end, the man only left a sentence on Weibo: "One part, two wide, each of them is safe." Then he listed his two mansions in the capital.
At that time, people found out that the ex-girlfriend who cried that Tang Weiyuan didn't love him was still living in Tang Weiyuan's house.
Most of the media and keyboard warriors immediately fell silent.
Du An just took a fancy to Tang Weiyuan's face that looked like a gentle and good person, as well as his topicality.
The scene that is being filmed now is "Scholar Wenren Ling", looking at the strange miscellaneous books, seeing that he went crazy, he ran to the barren mountain and wild temple alone with a lantern to find the "fox fairy", and it happened that Shen Jiu was hanging upside down on a branch to sleep, and when he heard the order, he was frightened by Shen Jiu and ran to the top of the mountain in a panic.
is this "run", Tang Weiyuan has run seven times.
He wants to run with a sense of fear, and he also has to run very funny with his lines, after all, Wen Renling, as the "teaser" of the whole play, has to bear most of the funny scenes.
It's like he has to say three lines when he runs.
"Zi is silent, Zi is silent, I can't see it...... I can't see...... I can't hear it! I can't hear it!"
"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south, there is no Amitabha Buddha in the south......"
"The Sanqing sage is above, and the disciple will never watch "Journey to the West" again in the future......."
The three words must be spoken with the mouth, and they must be spoken in a particularly expressive manner.
Tang Weiyuan is also an actor who can be ruthless to himself, he fell twice on the side he just ran, and his leg hit the stone, so he still finished the lines according to Duane's request.
Duane didn't say he was satisfied, nor did he say he wasn't satisfied.
In this scene, Chi Chi also has lines, she said several "don't run", because Wen Renling's direction is leading to the cliff, in Duan's plan, Chi Chi's lines will be said when she is filming Wei Ya chasing Wen Renling, and then make a chase scene through guò post-editing.
Tang Weiyuan didn't care about the injury on his leg, and ran with a slight limp to listen to Du An's evaluation.
"You're going to have to run a little bit cleaner. ”
After thinking about it for a long time, Duane told him.
At that moment, many people saw the word crazy written on Tang Weiyuan's white face.
Chi Chi, who was squatting next to him and nibbling on cucumbers, quickly understood what Duane meant.
Tang Weiyuan's running scene is like her own walking scene, which is a white sketch that lays the foundation for the character image of the whole film, and this white sketch must grasp the core of the entire character image.
The core of Shen Jiu is the freedom in his bones.
The core of Wen Renling is the arrogance in the depths of his soul, which makes him show a kind of "cleanness" that is less vulgar.
Even if you roll ten times in the mud, you will feel "clean" out of the dust.
The girl bit her finger and held the cucumber to think about what she would do if she were herself.
The "100 times" scene a few days ago completely ruined Chi Chi's white and tender little face that was vigorously maintained by Gu Xi, and the black and red on his cheeks were gradually revealed, almost making the makeup artists angry. Now, as long as she is not in the play, she will be covered with a mask, and even if she doesn't have a mask, there will be cucumber slices.
External use is not as good as internal use, and she eats a cucumber if she has nothing to do with this crooked reasoning, which can be regarded as relieving herself from the heat.
The girl crouched in the corner, her phone vibrating. Thanks to her for choosing a two-card double-standby 998 domestic product, since that day Ruixin's celebration banquet, her phone has been ringing non-stop, knowing that she participated in a celebration banquet, I don't know that I thought she had just escaped from the 'sales den' point.
Chi Chi simply made another calling card, and the number only told the people in her original address book.
At this time, the phone happened to ring.
It was the old number that had been broken that was shaken, and the sound was the new number that she had rarely contacted.
Chi Chi bit the cucumber and looked down, it was a text message, sent by Wen Xinping.
There are only two simple words and a punctuation mark on it:
Actress!
