Chapter 240: A Similar Life

The last scene of the camera is a separate shot of Wang Luo pulling Cheng Xiao, but it is brought to Su Yuan's father and daughter in the corner, the ridicule and serious silence and hatred raised on the corner of Wang Luo's mouth on the screen seem to be able to be felt by everyone through the screen, but this man's expression is so peaceful, this can no longer be said to be acting. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Because it is so real that everyone has a little illusion, everyone present has an inexplicable sense of substitution and resonance, which is a performance tension that cannot be described at a glance, it is called real.

Performance comes from life, but it is higher than life, and in the end it is necessary to return to life.

Most of the newcomer actors are exaggerated, and then gradually become natural, but acting skills are acting skills after all, and there will still be traces of acting skills, when the actor has no traces of that kind of performance and can be integrated into the role, then he can be said to be a qualified actor, no matter how advanced he is, it will make people feel that he is that role, and that role is his illusion.

But this kind of performance requires foreshadowing, but Wang Luo only has a smile and expression to make everyone resonate with the character's emotions, which really surprises everyone.

At the end of the movie, a pale gold name flashed "Hope", and it was completely darkened.

However, Wang Luo's amazing performance still can't withstand the shock of this rough cut of the film of less than ten minutes, the lights of the movie theater gradually turned on, everyone was still silent, and a few seconds later, a round of applause rang out, and then everyone applauded.

Park Ji-yeon, who was already crying and her eyes were red, lying in Wang Luo's arms, looked at those foreigners in astonishment and stood up and applauded Wang Luo, the tara have all read the script, so they are a little adapted, but they are still made to cry by the picture, but what makes them even more surprised is, what happened to this group of foreigners? Why are they all applauding at them?

"What I hate most in my life is tragic films." One of the beautiful women shouted to Wang Luo with a crying and laughing expression.

Wang Luo smiled apologetically.

"But I'm willing to go to the movies and watch it." The beautiful woman said to Wang Luo with a smile.

"Sandra, let's be together." Cate Blanchett also said with a smile.

Later, many people expressed their kindness to Wang Luo, and Wang Luo expressed his gratitude one by one, and he suddenly understood why Park Chan-wook and them were so persistent in pursuing art, and this feeling of being recognized was indeed very good.

"Okay, this show hasn't finished production yet, you have to keep it a secret." Finch shouted with a smile in his voice, "But I still have to congratulate Mr. Wang Luo first." ”

Wang Luo smiled modestly, "Thank you for your blessings, I will give you movie tickets when the movie is released, but you have to give me a ticket to the Oscars." ”

Everyone burst into laughter.

"Mr. Finch, I suddenly feel like I'd better stop playing that movie and get another one." Leonardo suddenly laughed and exclaimed, "With Mr. Wang Luo's "Hope" in front, I suddenly feel that my movie is a little stingy. ”

"You're stingy." Harvey smiled and quipped, "Mr. Wang Luo's movie is feelings, you are crooked, not a genre, it just so happens that everyone has cried enough just now, watch your joy." ”

Buzz Ruhrmann rolled his eyes in displeasure, "Please, profiteer, ours is also a tragic movie, okay?" ”

Looking at this noisy foreigner, Wang Luo couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

A group of people pulled their skins for a while, the lights of the movie theater dimmed again, and the picture slowly lit up, and the first scene made Wang Luo raise his eyebrows slightly, because of the appearance of Spider-Man Tobey Maguire, he really has a good impression of this actor.

The film is called "The Great Gatsby" and tells the legendary story of an American officer who happened after the First World War, and the whole movie is full of extravagant scenes and beautiful love that make all women scream, and an infatuated handsome man who satisfies all women's fantasies.

A young officer was fascinated by the heroine when he attended a banquet, and something indescribable happened to the two who fell in love at first sight, and then the young officer went to the battlefield without news, but when the heroine was about to marry a nobleman, he received a letter from the hero, but the heroine finally married the nobleman for family reasons, allowing her and her family to live a luxurious life.

The flashback technique in the first half is to mock the clear class division in the United States and the helplessness and ruthlessness of some families who want to climb power and wealth.

Tobey Maguire plays the role of the heroine's cousin, just an ordinary person who often gets drunk with his cousin because of their big money, but he always feels that he is not the same as his cousin and cousin-in-law and the female partner he likes.

And this feeling completely exploded when I met the actor, Tobey Maguire's line is that Gatsby's smile is very comfortable, so comfortable that you feel as if he can understand you thoroughly.

Wang Luo was very impressed by this line, because he knew that his previous self might have given his brothers this feeling, and at the same time, he also understood Gatsby's character at once.

Gatsby was just a 'liar', he didn't read Oxford, and all the manners and behaviors were learned from the rich merchant who was shipwrecked at sea, although he did not inherit the rich merchant's huge family property, but he inherited all the aristocratic temperament and insight of the rich merchant.

Gatsby didn't go to the heroine immediately after learning that the heroine was married, but told himself very sensibly that he couldn't give the heroine the life she wanted because he was poor, and he thought that he had to at least give him a better life than the heroine's current luxurious life before he could go to him.

So he used his IQ to start crocheting one scam after another, and eventually became a real rich man, and became a household name, and almost all of America knew about his legendary life.

But this is another clever design by the screenwriter, a rich man known throughout the United States, but the heroine doesn't know, just because she has been living in a backward state next to New York after marrying a nobleman, where the news is closed.

This is just to show the irony of the aristocrats who isolated themselves and appeared to be noble but unheard.

When Gatsby felt that he could be worthy of the heroine, he bought the house opposite the heroine's house, the two houses were separated by a bay, and the most beautiful shot of the whole film appeared, that is, Gatsby stood in the hazy bay of his own house, looking at the heroine's house completely covered by the fog opposite, and couldn't see anything, only the flashing green indicator light.

That guiding light is Gatsby's love, and for this love, he will break through the fog.

The eldest cousin played by Tobey Maguire is a standard knowledgeable commoner, timid, cautious and with a hint of resistance to the outside world, and after receiving the invitation to Gatsby's banquet, he seems to be a little expectant and apprehensive, but finally chooses to go to the appointment.

He asked everyone at the party, and he was the only one who had the invitation, which made him feel special, at least for Gatsby.

Later, Gatsby's relationship with him grew by leaps and bounds, almost to the level of a friend, and when he learned Gatsby's true purpose, the eldest cousin was momentarily disappointed, but after getting out of the taxi, he was apprehensive when he saw Gatsby wandering in front of his door.

He laughed, he preferred to believe that Gatsby was his cousin who really loved him, because he was willing to believe that Gatsby was a good man, and that there was no malice even if he approached him.

The eldest cousin helped Gatsby rub the game with his cousin, and the next day he found that his home had changed, everything was because of Gatsby, and the home was decorated like a flower shop, which made him cry and laugh, but he looked at the nervous Gatsby, he could understand, because he knew that maybe everything that seemed exaggerated was not worth mentioning in Gatsby's eyes as meeting his cousin.

Because Gatsby knows that everything he has is for the heroine and gives him the best of everything.

But when it rained outside, Gatsby became anxious and apprehensive, and he began to comb his hair constantly, moving around the room, and deciding to give up when the appointed time was approaching because he felt that he was not ready.

The eldest cousin looked at Gatsby in astonishment, because he felt in his eyes that Gatsby had the most wealth in the world, as well as a handsome appearance and a gentleman's etiquette and temperament that made everyone feel comfortable.

The moment Gatsby was about to push the door out, his cousin's car came, Gatsby was stunned, the eldest cousin patted him on the shoulder, and went out to pick up his cousin with an umbrella, but when he came back, he found that the room was empty.

The eldest cousin comforted his cousin, looked for Gatsby in the house, and finally found Gatsby at the back door, but Gatsby, who was dressed luxuriously and neatly, looked particularly embarrassed, he kept trembling, but he didn't dare to see the heroine.

With the repeated encouragement of the eldest cousin, Gatsby decided to meet the heroine, so he went out from behind, startling the eldest cousin, and after a while Gatsby knocked on the front door again, the eldest cousin opened the door and saw Gatsby who was wet by the rain, his suit was no longer straight, his hair was wet and dripping with rain, he looked embarrassed, but at this time he gave people a very spiritual feeling.

The eldest cousin was stunned and greeted Gatsby into the door, and by the way reminded him that his hair was messy, the hero and heroine officially met, and the eldest cousin gave up the house and lied that he was going out, so he stood under the big tree outside the door for more than an hour, soaking wet and looking at his house, there was a pair of lovers who were tricked by fate and said goodbye to repetition, he didn't know what he was thinking, but he was happy for Gatsby, and he didn't feel guilty for letting someone else's wife cheat.

The agreed time is almost up, the eldest cousin returns to the house, the hero and heroine are immersed in an atmosphere called love and can't see the eldest cousin at all, and the eldest cousin who was fed a mouthful of dog food has to make some movement to remind the two that the time is up.

The lovers who are reluctant to say goodbye to the repetition are naturally reluctant, Gatsby invites the heroine and the eldest cousin to his home, Gatsby's home is more luxurious than the heroine's home, the eldest cousin looks at the heroine's smile, and always feels that something is wrong, but he is still moved by the sweet atmosphere of the two.

In Gatsby's house, the heroine stood downstairs, and the shot of Gatsby throwing clothes downstairs made the girls around Wang Luo exclaim with envy, Park Ji-yeon hugged Wang Luo's arm tightly, and muttered something to Wang Luo.

Park Hyo-min smiled a little stiffly, looking at Wang Luo's side face with a shallow smile, she felt that the Gatsby in the story was similar to the real Wang Luo.

The shot of Gatsby throwing clothes satisfies the fantasies of all women, but it is easy for them to ignore Gatsby's thoughts, he is a man, why are there so many women's clothes? Rather, it is also distinguished by fabric and style, filling so many wardrobes.

There is only one reason, that is, for the heroine, these clothes are all prepared by the male protagonist to meet love, every piece of clothing exists because of the heroine, this is a man with deep affection.

The heroine is immersed in Gatsby's tenderness and can't extricate herself, and the eldest cousin is looking around, and finally discovers Gatsby's secrets, discovering that he may not be a real "aristocrat" and has not attended Oxford University.

But it doesn't matter, the eldest cousin just needs to watch them happy.

The beginning of happiness is the beginning of tragedy.

Gatsby wanted to possess all the heroines too much, so he still asked the heroine to divorce her husband, but the heroine was always hesitant, because her husband and Gatsby were for her, one was class and the other was love, and in the end, she couldn't resist Gatsby's request and chose love.

The process of the showdown is sad, Gatsby is not a real nobleman after all, not a gentleman in his bones, the perfection he shows is all to get close to and have the heroine's coat, but this coat is unveiled in front of the heroine's husband.

The heroine couldn't accept such a Gatsby, because she couldn't let go of the class, so the negotiations fell apart, and Gatsby and the heroine drove back to the town and hit and killed the heroine's husband's mistress.

The perpetrator is the heroine, but in the end, the heroine and her husband return all responsibility to Gatsby.

The eldest cousin has always believed in Gatsby, so he knows the truth, but the heroine has stopped answering his phone, he accompanied Gatsby at Gatsby's house until dawn, Gatsby told him all the truth, and the eldest cousin decided again that Gatsby is a truly amazing person, and the hypocritical cousin and her husband are not worthy of being compared with Gatsby at all.

The heroine said that she would call Gatsby, but she waited until dawn, and no one called, the eldest cousin left the manor because he had to go to work, and when Gatsby sent him to the door, the eldest cousin's confession to Gatsby made him ecstatic, but he didn't expect that this was the last time the two met.

Gatsby was shot and killed by the husband of the mistress who was hit and killed by the heroine, the farmer who killed him committed suicide, and two of the most innocent people in the whole show died.

No one came to Gatsby's funeral, all the reporters came, and the eldest cousin looked at Gatsby, who was still a gentleman who died in the coffin, and finally broke out and drove away all the reporters, and began to call everyone who attended Gatsby's banquet, but no one wanted to come to his funeral.

Even the heroine flew abroad with her husband and cheated on him.

The eldest cousin was the only one who stayed with Gatsby, and he stood in Gatsby's countless nights staring at the harbor of green light across from him, looking at the flickering green light in the dense fog that could not be dissolved.

At the end of the film, it was the last call Gatsby received before he died, and everyone thought it was the heroine calling, but it was really a big cousin, and the heroine was given a close-up of picking up the phone and putting it down.

This is the last tenderness left by the director to the audience, wanting the audience to think that the heroine once made that elopement call to Gatsby, but the phone was busy.

But in fact, the kind of person who is the heroine has long lost confidence in love, and she has no love from beginning to end, on the night when the male protagonist disappeared many years ago.

The eldest cousin is not a good person, nor is he a bad person, he can get along with the male protagonist's husband, and he can also have a heart-to-heart relationship with Gatsby, but he has no helping hand to anyone, and the only consequence of his impulsive help to Gatsby is to bear great self-blame, because he has long seen that his cousin is not in love with Gatsby.

The only few arguments he had with Gatsby were about 'whether people will change or not, whether they can go back to the way things were'.

He couldn't puncture the dream that Gatsby had made up for himself, because Gatsby had already pressed his whole life on the woman he loved, and even if he died, he still felt that the heroine had love for him.

In Wang Luo's eyes, the whole film is a work full of ridicule and the ideal fallacy of human struggle, but it makes Wang Luo feel that it is indeed a good work.

The director highlights all the problems from all the details, Gatsby's fake gentleman, the repeatedly emphasized Oxford University, and the important phone calls from all over the world received at the banquet, as well as the male protagonist's emotional handling of the female protagonist, and the silence of the eldest cousin, although the story is a bloody tragedy, Wang Luo can still see the beauty in it.

It's Gatsby's obsession and madness with 'immutability' and "love", maybe only this kind of person can be successful.

However, his success was ruined in his own hands in the end.

In Gatsby's final autobiography, the sentence is similar to 'I can't hug you when I put down the bricks in my hand': "I knew that when I chose her, it was a road to destruction, but I still chose her"

This is a film that is not a special case in the era of Western big movies, most of the people present have seen the original film, Leonardo's performance is as brilliant as ever, and the director also shows the 'Eye of God' and the ridicule of class love to the extreme, and at the same time, the spirit of this little person fighting for unrealistic dreams has resonated with many people.

Gatsby's road to success in the film has been experienced by many people off the scene, because no one is born a successful person, and conspiracy and struggle are the most basic rules of survival in this noisy society, especially the middle and upper classes.

This is a very good movie, at least let everyone quietly watch it and savor the bloody reality under the extremely prosperous and beautiful and extravagant lens.

After the movie ended, there were sobs in the hall one after another, and Wang Luo gently patted Park Ji-yeon and Park Hyo-min on their trembling shoulders, staring at the screen playing the cast list in a daze.

"I don't like this movie." Park Ji-yeon suddenly whimpered and hugged Wang Luo.

Wang Luo was slightly stunned.

"I don't like it either." Park Hyo-min wiped her tears and said softly.

"I like it." Wang Luo opened his mouth and showed a bright smile.

This film, just like Wang Luo as the prototype, the experience in it made Park Ji-yeon a little frightened, similar backgrounds, similar experiences, and similar character designs, all of which made Park Ji-yeon fall into a huge panic.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to be him because he's a loser because I got everything I wanted." Wang Luo's gentle voice sounded in Park Ji-yeon's ears.

Park Ji-yeon sobbed a little, then blinked, and snorted softly to hold Wang Luo's hand, "Are you sure, you're satisfied?" Gatsby in the film failed because of excessive extravagance. ”

"You'll see." Wang Luo was slightly stunned, a little surprised that Park Ji-yeon could see this, Gatsby's failure actually can't blame anyone, it's just because of the insecurity caused by his natural inferiority, he has been in a state of leaving himself in the past and not wanting to come out, so he will repeatedly ask the heroine to go back to the past like him.

In fact, from the moment he saw the heroine, he already knew that there was no love, to borrow a phrase from Internet chicken soup.

You and I are fateful, and I rely on me to die alone.

But love needs to be responded to after all, even if a person pays more, he will collapse if he doesn't get a response, not so much that Gatsby was murdered by social and class conspiracy, but rather that he chose to commit suicide after having no love in life, because with his IQ and ability, there are too many things that can be done after hitting someone.

However, a movie is a movie, and there will definitely be the understanding of the actors and the will of the director in it, and it will not be the same as reality, so Wang Luo does not have the illusion of the fox dying and the rabbit is sad at all, but is thinking about whether to remake a Korean version.
