Chapter Seventy-Five, New Movie
Chapter Seventy-Five, New Movie
In the eyes of countless people who once looked forward to it, but eventually turned into suspicion.
This film, which has been mentioned several times since a long time ago, is a screenwriter who has been praised as a genius by Time Magazine. It is highly regarded by the Venice International Film Festival as a bold and innovative use of long lenses.
This is a game that has recently been criticized by countless people as a layman. It's finally out for real today.
When the lights dimmed, the fierce drumbeat suddenly sounded. On the screen is a list of actors that feel weird.
As soon as the screen turned, what looked like a missile and a meteor reappeared, falling from a distance. The long shots, like suing the people, are the difference of this film.
At the beginning of the movie, a black humor slowly unfolds in front of people. People feel that in this play-within-a-play, the script and the use of the camera make people feel as if they want to read it in one go.
And several reversals of the script are unabrupt and unexpected. It's really creative.
And the kind of midlife crisis in the movie, the desire to succeed, and the efforts are ignored. Each of them is unhappy, and each is in trouble. It's all in one place.
In the end, the early verdict of the commentator almost killed the protagonist's hopes.
Ideals, careers, families, everything is a mess. The actor finally replaced the prop gun with a real gun with a calm face.
When the actor finally shoots himself. When the cry of life comes out of his mouth, he looks so sad.
The plot is reversed again. The protagonist survives the catastrophe and succeeds unexpectedly. It seems that Yiqiē should be on the right track. But Zheng Zhi let the male protagonist not know whether he was alive or dead in the end.
All the audience felt his desire to die. But I can't help but hope for a miracle and a turnaround. In the end, her daughter's laughter made Yiqiē a fan.
That's the end of the film!
There was silence in the theater. The once malicious journalists were silent. Fans who were once skeptical lost their voices.
This movie is a black humor. It's just that he is not absurd, and there seems to be a different meaning in the heaviness. If they understand Chinese culture, they will definitely be able to tell that there seems to be a mystery hidden in this!
If I have to use a Western word to annotate, it is that there seems to be a hint of philosophical speculation in this movie. It's just that the final answer was not given directly by the director and screenwriter, but left a qiē to the audience.
After a brief silence in the theater. Suddenly there was a tidal wave of applause.
Zheng Zhi and other creative staff stood up to greet the audience.
Park Bo-young and Suzy suddenly feel like they don't know what to say.
The other party's acting skills make people feel that they don't look like stars at all, and they are completely an ordinary person. Doesn't show the charisma of the character. There doesn't seem to be much plot either. But for some reason, the two were firmly attracted by the plot of the movie. I read it in one go, and then let out a long breath.
The two can be called the two best actresses in the new generation of South Korea. The experience of acting is still self-indirect. After watching the movie at this time. They really feel that there is still a gap between the two of them and that kind of old drama bones.
After sending off all the audience and relatives and friends who came to the premiere, the crew of "Birdman" went to the hotel to attend the gala. This is probably the last time the main creators got together so neatly. After today, we will meet again, I don't know what year it is.
Movies are like that. A group of people come together for the same goal. After countless hard work, they formed a deep friendship and scattered in all directions, going their separate ways.
Park Bo-young and Suzy were also taken by Jung Zhi. The party was a Western-style self-service affair, and there was no clear theme, just a get-together, dancing, and a bite to eat.
Zheng Zhi took Suzy and the two got to know the main actors, and recommended Suzy to the director.
In the near future, Suzy is about to start her career in Hollywood. Naturally, you need to accumulate more contacts. And director Inarritu is undoubtedly the most worthy of her acquaintance!
And when it comes to what interests the two of them the most. But it was the American star Leonardo who stayed after the premiere!
This has been in the film for many years, and has grown from a small fresh meat to a handsome uncle today. But his fame has not diminished. Its popularity in Asia and even South Korea far exceeds that of everyone present, including Zheng Zhi!
After visiting the leading actors and directors of "Birdman", Jung Zhi led Suzy and Park Boyoung to Leonardo with a smile.
Leonardo looked at him at the same time, and the two looked at each other like this, and at the same time remained silent and did not speak.
And Xiuzhi, who was originally following Zheng Zhi, didn't feel anything at first, but after staying for a while, they found that the two were still standing quietly opposite each other, silent, and the smiles on their faces were a little stiff for a while. What's going on? Both of them were secretly annoyed in their hearts.
Just when the two of them felt like they were about to die of embarrassment by this silent confrontation. Leonardo and Zheng Zhi laughed at the same time and hugged each other tightly!
Leonardo patted Zheng Zhi on the back fiercely. "Good boy, after staying in South Korea for so long, you haven't contacted us, are you ready to settle in South Korea?"
Zheng Zhi smiled heartily and exerted his arms. Leonardo, who suddenly made his figure out of shape, only shouted surrender.
Leonardo looked at the two girls behind Zheng Zhi, and said with an unhappy face: "This guy is as strong as a cow, you can stay away from him in the future." ”
Zheng Zhi looked at his friend who he hadn't seen for a long time, and smiled and helped the two sides introduce it.
Park Bo-young and Suzy were both a little excited. They have been fascinated by this Hollywood star for a long time. At this time, I couldn't help but feel nervous, and I really felt a little bit like fans seeing a star.
Zheng Zhi quipped: "Do you still want to ask him for an autograph?" ”
I never thought that the two women looked at each other at the same time, and asked a little weakly, "Is it okay?" ”
Leonardo and Zheng Zhi laughed out loud at the same time.
Because of Zheng Zhi's relationship, Leonardo did not see the outside. generously gave the two of them two signed posters. and the two are also talking and laughing.
After laughing and talking for a while, Leonardo's expression suddenly changed, looked at Zheng Zhi and said, "Now that "Birdman" is also released, what are you going to do when you come down?" Do you want to work with me once? I'll ask the director for a role for you! ”
Zheng Zhi looked at Leonardo with a stern face and smiled bitterly, with Zheng Zhi's popularity at this time, if he wants to act in a movie, do you need to be recommended by others?
Leonardo just invited Zheng Zhiyi to cooperate in disguise. At the same time, it is also a kind of overture.
Others may not have noticed it, but as Zheng Zhi's friend, he has a deep understanding of Zheng Zhi's vision. The vision of this man is a miracle.
Just like he predicts the trajectory of the ball when he plays.
Leonardo has worked hard at the Oscars for many years, but has never been able to win the statuette. This kept him haunted, and it was Zheng Zhi who found him and recommended to him the new film that Inarritu was preparing to make.
You must know the difficulty of this film, it is simply inhuman. Leonardo even thought about giving up when he first saw this script. If it weren't for Zheng Zhi's strong recommendation, he wouldn't have made up his mind. Now that he was feeling better, it seemed as if the little golden man was beckoning to him.
Zheng Zhi shook his head and didn't say anything about his plans. Just refused Leonardo's invitation.
Leonardo was not annoyed, and reluctantly asked, "What are you going to do next?" Listen to director Inarritu, his new film is also a script written by you. However, he did not participate in the production of this film. You must have something else to do. ”
Zheng Zhi looked at Leonardo with a curious look, and couldn't help but wonder, the big star's curiosity was still not reduced at all.
"I'm going to make my own movie!" Zheng Zhi replied in the face of his tireless questioning.
Leonardo looked surprised: "Starring? ”
Suddenly, he reacted in the next second. Then he looked at Zheng Zhi like a ghost. "You're not kidding, are you? Really? ”
Zheng Zhi smiled bitterly, the reason why he didn't say it at the beginning was because he knew that it would be like this.
At this time, looking at his expression of disbelief, he said helplessly: "Really, I directed it myself." I also wrote the script myself. ”
"This!" Leonardo didn't know how to complain at this time. This kid, who is more than ten years younger than him, is really unexpected!
On the one hand, Suzy and Park Bo-young, who heard Zheng Zhi's words all the time, also had a ghostly expression. The mouth is wide and the eyes are round.
It's incredible, isn't it?
Listening to the meaning of Zheng Zhi's words, he is going to make a movie. And it's a Hollywood movie. Not in South Korea. Instead, he made his directorial debut directly in the world's largest film production venue.
The risks are self-evident, and even outsiders like them find it exciting and incredible. What's more, Zheng Zhi himself has to face so much criticism and pressure!
"What's that look on your face? Isn't it just to make a movie, what's wrong with that? Zheng Zhi looked at the expressions of the three of them and couldn't laugh for a while, and complained weakly.
"What's not to do? You studied economics in college and played basketball. Occasionally, I write a few songs and sing part-time, and I also hold an art exhibition from time to time. If you smoke it one day, you can run a few laps of racing. Now that you're going to be a director again, are you going to steal everyone's jobs? ”
Leonardo looked at Zheng Zhi with an expression that you are a freak.
Zheng Zhi touched his nose, a little embarrassed. It seems that I am really not doing my job. It's just that he still has to do it!
Leonardo didn't dwell on it for long, naturally patted Zheng Zhi's shoulder and asked, "Do you want to wait for me to finish this play and come to you as the protagonist?" ”
Zheng Zhi rolled his eyes, "Don't work hard, I've basically chosen the script!" ”
Leonardo suddenly lost his face. put down the hand that was holding Zheng Zhi's shoulder, and made a look that he was not familiar with.
Suzy and Park Bo-young rarely interject on the side, firstly, their English skills are not very good, and although they can communicate, they are not very fluent.
Second, the two are always a little weak when facing Zheng Zhi and Leonardo.
At this time, Xiuzhi asked curiously, "Is the relationship between Mr. Li and Zheng Zhioppa very good?" ”
Leonardo and Zheng Zhi looked at each other curiously at the same time. "Why do you say that?"
"Because Mr. Li is willing to star in Zheng Zhioppa's movie!" After saying that, Suzy hurriedly covered her mouth. His face was full of embarrassment, and he was so curious that he couldn't help but say it. (To be continued.) )
