The lights on the theater ceiling came back on, and less than twenty audience members stood up, clapping their palms sparsely, and applause, which was often seen at film festivals, was just a polite response from the audience, and Murphy listened to the applause, and he couldn't tell what it meant.
Perhaps only the applauding people themselves know what they really think of this film.
Daisy is applauding vigorously, she likes the setting of the modern Little Red Riding Hood counterattacking the big bad wolf in the film, Little Red Riding Hood tortures the big bad wolf, Lori concocts Lori control or something, it looks really cool and cool.
Her male partner has only one thought, cherish life and stay away from Lori!
He's seen a lot of films about Lori, this fruit hard candy is definitely the most ferocious, with Lolita's evil, Iris's calm and calm and Matilda's fierceness, and even more on his own cleverness, full of wisdom, it's a collection of all kinds of dangers, those explicit and implicit Lolicon, in the face of such a frosting of the arsenic in the fruit hard candy, can only ask for more blessings.
Not far behind them, Jones Butler did not applaud, but seized the last time to record more information about the film while his mind was still clear, which would also be part of the basis for later judgments.
violent, bloody, sensitive, controversial, simple, tense, thrilling...... She first wrote down these key words, and then wrote her own review of the film below.
"An empty house, a hard table and chairs with iron plates, several monochrome walls, a long dialogue section, a simple but compact plot, but a thriller plot full of suspense."
"Hard Fruit Candy" has many elements of popular movie hits: online dating, ****, crime, murder, revenge, suspense, reasoning, stratagem, witty, thriller, pedophilia, psychological analysis, etc., the director of the film is a good storyteller, the theme is sensitive but knows how to control, and he is also a master of creating tension, and he is also a master of comprehensive use of film techniques."
After thinking about it for a while, she wrote, "Brief description of the plot: The underage girl and the ******** teacher are dating online, the girl goes to the date, the two fight their wits, the girl sees through the trick and turns over the photographer, finds out the evidence of his murder, and takes revenge, the photographer uses psychological tactics to seek relief, the girl castrates the photographer, the photographer breaks free from chasing and killing the girl, the girl breaks the photographer's psychological defense and hangs her, and justice is served. β
Finally, Jones Butler added, "The plot flows smoothly, and the links are tightly linked." Build yΓ¬ attention level: priority! β
Next to him, Baker Larsente from Castle Rock has no records, but his head is running at high speed, he is also a professional filmmaker and buyer, and he has his own judgment on the film.
If it is a full score of 10, he will give the film a passing score of 6, which is not a rating for the film, but a market potential score.
Starting from her own feelings, Baker Larsente judged that the heroine would be rejected by a considerable number of male audiences, and I am afraid that many male viewers will not like this girl, and they feel cold after watching the film.
Women may find it enjoyable and will praise it, but Baker Larsente believes that there is no shortage of sympathetic ladies who do not agree with the heroine's approach and favor the position of male audiences, while male audiences should not defect to the women's camp.
In this way, the audience of the film is limited, and it is destined that its market will not be wide, and it must be a niche film.
As a buyer, Baker Larsente's first focus is on the market, and the market prospect is the only criterion by which he judges films.
After "Blair the Witch", everyone wants to follow Lionsgate and pick up a big bargain from the St. Denis Film Festival, Baker Larsente is more rational, knowing that that miracle comes from a large investment in marketing operations, not the natural birth of the film, this "Hard Candy" market audience is here, there is no value in large-scale operation.
According to this standard, the market potential score of the film can only be said to be unsatisfactory, but some of the selling points in it cannot be ignored by him.
First, countering violence with violence is a very suitable behavior for the audience, and it can at least make a considerable audience happy; Second, Little Red Riding Hood is innocent and cute, so cool, she has to have a brain, she has acting skills, and she can even act with her eyes; Thirdly, fighting in the room, in addition to the final blow, the burden can also be shaken down, it is definitely a model of low-cost system, which fully meets the aesthetic standard of how fast and easy B-grade films are; Fourth, the editing is crisp and neat, the music rhythm is tight, and the director tells a simple and sensitive story tense and interesting......
Everyone always has a different perception of a movie, Bill Robbins has seen the rough cut version before, and at that time there were no various sound effects, and now after watching it, although he was a little surprised by Murphy's use of lenses and editing rhythm, he didn't expect the final effect to be so good, but what impressed him the most was the various sounds in the film that he had not heard before.
voice-over of the dialogue between the hero and heroine; a disco that stops suddenly; the sound of ice cubes rubbing in ice packs; the subtle sound of a scalpel cutting through skin; the photographer's wheezing in pain; The sound of glass bottles shattering......
All of these are brilliantly and accurately integrated into the sound effects of Murphy Stanton's rookie, mobilizing his sense of hearing, strengthening the psychology of the characters, and enhancing the shock of the film.
The applause, which was already small, gradually died out after less than ten seconds.
Watching the screen return to darkness, Murphy's heartstrings tensed unconsciously, the first screening in his life ended like this, and the screening of the road to the future did not let him see through the chaos ahead.
Murphy stood up, his hands trembling slightly in a place where no one else could notice, although he had experienced the cruelty of life in prison, but counting the time he had spent on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, he was still a young man, and no matter how good his mental state was, he was also a little nervous at this time.
Especially when he saw a few professional filmmakers, Murphy took a long breath, so that the shaking of his hands did not spread to other parts of his body.
He put almost all his net worth on this film, which is also the beginning of a series of plans, if it fails, it is not as simple as starting from scratch, how can he not care?
"We're done with the film?" Paul Wilson next to him was a little stunned.
The audience had already begun to leave, and the professional filmmakers finally stood up, and Murphy held his mind and reminded Paul Wilson, "If you feel lost, you can go outside and cry." β
This kind of scene is indeed different from what Paul Wilson expected, there is no prolonged applause, no fans flocking to congratulate him, and no audience affected by the film to sign autographs......
The screening of "Hard Fruit Candy" ended, and the audience withdrew, and they were still unnoticed.
