Chapter 62: The Traditional Premiere of Caesar

The premiere is still the style that Caesar insists on, don't talk nonsense, and get dry goods first.

Of course, the celebrities present were also mentally prepared for the way Caesar released the film first, and several premieres in the past two years have imitated Caesar's style.

The premiere first shows the film, which seems to be becoming a trend in Hollywood.

The theater quickly went dark after the people were seated. Caesar was Bea on the left and Emily on the right, and the three of them sat in the front row where they could be on the stage for the first time.

First up is Fox's searchlight, which sways to the familiar beat of the drums, and then there's MGM's Lion, whose roaring opening is always so imposing.

Caesar couldn't help but remember that the lion had torn apart its trainer and assistant in charge of breeding alive shortly after the filming.

When Caesar wanders, with the loud roar of the aircraft engine, the main film begins.

A close-up of the hand, first the ring explains the fact that the actor is married, and then the action of holding the armrest tightly exposes his nervousness of being afraid of doing an airplane.

A Latino businessman sitting next to him sees him so nervous and kindly teaches the protagonist a trick to relieve the fatigue of flying.

When getting off the plane, the half-revealed 1911 once again triggers a conversation between the two about the identity of the main character's police officer.

There are not many scenes, and the simple dialogue explains the identity and background of the protagonist.

The young flight attendant in Guò has a loving gaze on the protagonist, and the charm of the protagonist is described from the side.

Indeed, as soon as Willis's first close-up shot appeared, the theater resounded with the exclamations of a young woman.

In 1984, Bruce Willis, after graduating from SEAL camp with an A, said that it was a woman's poison.

Willis's current age, appearance, and temperament are already impeccable. Many directors and producers in the audience can already foresee that as long as Willis's acting skills meet the standards, a superstar is already in the sky.

The protagonist's wife, Caesar, still chose Bonnie Beatilia from the previous life "Die Hard 1".

looks passing, although it is not outstanding acting skills, but it is still very suitable to play a strong woman whose career is more important than her family.

The company where the protagonist's wife works, Caesar, also follows the setting of the Japanese company.

Yes, the 80s was an era when Japanese tycoons waved checks and shouted slogans to buy the United States and invade the whole world with money.

With such an opportunity for a black Japanese, how could Caesar let it go?

The original Japanese boss, Mr. Aoki, is generous, loyal, and courageous, with few flaws.

Caesar's version of Boss Aoki slightly amplifies some of the Japanese vices.

Faced with the fact that employees from the suzerain, the United States, worked for him, he was fluttering, so he spoke very wildly, and he was lustful, and he had a bad idea of the protagonist's wife, Holly Payne, and because of He Li's ability, he didn't dare to act rashly for fear of losing a right-hand man.

So Aoki arranged a lengthened limousine to pick up the protagonist at the airport, which can be regarded as a kind of soft policy for He Li.

The driver of the limousine is a quick-witted and broken-mouthed black guy, and between the interaction between the two, the audience learns that the protagonist is a New York police officer who comes to Los Angeles to visit his wife on Christmas.

One detail is that Holy, as a company executive, used the registered name of Holey McClain at the doorman instead of Holy Payne.

In fact, his maiden name is used, and Caesar puts the surname of the original protagonist "John McClala" on the maiden name of the protagonist's wife in this version.

Caesar didn't know if it was lazy or bad fun, so he used it anyway.

The protagonist goes through the enthusiastic baptism of the people of California all the way, especially the passionate kiss of a on the protagonist's cheek, which makes the protagonist indignantly scolded the street.

Interestingly, the phrase "damn Californian" almost scolded most of the audience, but it still caused laughter from the audience.

Compared to New York's cold interpersonal relationships, Californian hospitality has always been a source of pride for Californians, and of course the who kissed the protagonist is really disgusting.

Another reason is that this is self-deprecation that belongs to the director.

Caesar is the pride of California, and the Los Angeles Times has always marketed Caesar around the world as a California specialty.

The dialogue between the protagonist and his wife because of their surnames also made many viewers feel something.

The Japanese in the 80s had an aversion to women working outside the home, let alone married women.

In order not to be discriminated against in the company, He Li had to register her maiden name so that she could conceal the fact of marriage when she was investigated by someone with a heart.

This stems from the unspoken rules of the workplace, and it is not allowed to be done.

But any husband who doesn't understand the Japanese workplace culture will wonder if his wife's motives are cheating on her.

Seeing this, Caesar laughed very much, and his voice was very small, but the two beauties on the left and right turned their attention at the same time.

Caesar shook his head and continued to watch.

Sure enough, Caesar adds another fire through the protagonist's mouth.

"I suspect that this Japanese workplace culture is an evil method that Japanese bosses or managers have come up with to make it easier for female employees to be unspoken."

The audience couldn't help but laugh again, and in fact, many people who knew the inside story of Japanese companies really thought so.

Of course, the protagonist and his wife still quarrel amid the laughter of the audience.

At this point, the foreshadowing of the main characters on the protagonist's side is completed, and the villain appears at the right time.

The number of villains in Caesar's version far exceeds that of the original "Die Hard", because the background of the protagonist has been changed from a fierce New York police officer to a New York police officer who "graduated from Hunter Academy with perfect scores" and made countless contributions to the Vietnam War.

In this context, the quality and quantity of villains must be greatly improved compared to the original, and if there are only ten or eight villains, it is not enough for the protagonist to plug his teeth.

Killing guards, planting bombs, and cutting phone lines, compared to the original slimy shooting action and camera rhythm, Caesar handles these actions cleanly and murderously.

The audience can see at a glance that these villains are all professional.

When the protagonist is actually barefoot, curled up with his toes and scratching the carpet back and forth, as the protagonist is actually doing in the neighbor on the plane, the raid on the villain duì banquet hall begins.

Although from the beginning to the time when the villain fired the gun and alarmed the protagonist, Caesar did not explain the background of the protagonist's Hunter Academy and veterans in any way, but the protagonist's instant reaction when he heard the gunfire amazed all the audience.

One difference between the treatment here and the original version is that the protagonist's gun has never left his body, and as soon as the gun sounds, the protagonist directly rolls over on his side, hiding behind a solid wood desk, and during the rolling process, the audience who pulls out the two 1911 guns with fast action does not see clearly.

After listening to the screams and gunshots outside, and seeing that footsteps and gunshots were approaching quickly, the protagonist quickly finds the entrance to the ventilation duct in the ceiling and quickly enters it.

As soon as the front foot restored the pipe mouth to its original state, the back foot terrorists kicked the door open with a gun.

This short segment is a fast-paced editing, with very short shots, many of which take less than a second. The tension can be created much more exciting than sticky long shots.
