Chapter 120: Twelve Angry Men
At this time, the question that several people next to him were discussing softly came into Tang Yin's ears, and they were discussing the matter of next year's Golden Dragon Award and Saturn Award. Tang Yin will go to participate in the Saturn Awards, but he is not going to go to the Golden Dragon Awards this time, because he knows that he is probably studying with the prince again this time.
If nothing else, as far as the urine of the Golden Dragon Award is concerned, I am afraid that this award will be won by Lao Muzi's "Hero", because the issues discussed by others are profound by themselves, and what they want to express is too obscure for ordinary people to feel. But now that the Saturn Award is out, although it does not conflict with the Golden Dragon Award, if the Golden Dragon Award is too popular, then their face will be lost.
However, if he doesn't go to the Golden Dragon Awards, he must find a suitable reason, otherwise others will say that he is dissatisfied and put on a shelf or something, so he has to find something to do for himself, but this thing can't be too long, because the two movies he will start shooting next year will take time to be fine-tuned, and they are also two classic movies.
Looking at the expectant eyes of a few old drama bones in front of him, Tang Yin thought for a while and said: "I want to make a movie after the Saturn Awards next year, and you can all join in at that time, but the schedule of this movie is very short, so the shooting time will be very short, but this movie has special requirements for acting skills, and I believe in your acting skills, so you can consider it." ”
After hearing this, several old drama bones immediately smiled happily: "The schedule must be fine, even if there is no schedule, you have to make time for your movie, but what type of movie are you going to make?" ”
"A movie made in a big house, a suspense movie." Tang Yin thought of a movie, a movie that has been remade several times, but this movie does not exist in this time and space, and even the original version does not appear. If you don't count the acting and script, this is an easy movie to make, with only one scene.
"Another movie in a big house?" Zhang Lan next to her asked curiously after hearing this, the classic and bizarre box office of "This Man is from Earth" made her more interested in Tang Yin making this kind of film, because the cost was low and she earned more.
"That's right! But this is just an idea now, I need some time to perfect the script, this movie has more starring than "This Man is from Earth", but it must be all old actors. Tang Yin smiled and replied, the eyes of several old drama bones around him lit up when they heard it, all of them were starring? This time I made a lot of money, you must know that Tang Yin's "This Man is from Earth" filmed at the beginning of this year is also such a movie, and that movie has raised several of the original lowest-tier second-tier actors to the top of the second-tier at once, and only one is missing from entering the ranks of first-line actors.
is also in the house, and there are also multiple protagonists, and now the value of the guys who participated in the starring role has risen immediately, and the drama continues, a few old actors around Tang Yin think about this, and they seem to be able to see that their value has risen because of this movie, "Will this movie be as classic as "This Man is from Earth"? ”
"Well, I can't guarantee this, because how good this movie can be depends on your performance, and how I can write the script, if both can be satisfied, this movie should not be worse than "This Man is from Earth". After hearing this, Tang Yin replied with a smile: "If you don't act well and smash the film, then I can't help it." ”
"Don't worry, Tang Caizi's production must be a high-quality product, so I will write a script for you to direct, we will definitely act with our hearts in this film, and we will not let you down." As soon as several people heard Tang Yin's words, they immediately patted their chests and assured that they were willing to work hard to improve their treatment.
"Okay, I'll give you the information about the characters first, and then roughly explain the storyline, you can figure it out first." Tang Yin smiled and didn't continue to say anything. This time, he really didn't have much certainty, because the movie he was going to make called "Twelve Angry Men".
The film is well-paced, tightly structured, and rigorously motive, without being dull due to the limitations of the story's setting, and requires a lot of actors to give a great performance to make a story that delves into the pros and cons of the jury system a strong sense of drama and appeal.
The earliest version of the film, "Twelve Angry Men", is an American version of its own time and space, and the scenes are bizarrely monotonous - there is almost only one scene in the whole film, which is exactly the same as "This Man is from Earth". And this scene, which can make all the audience obsessed with watching for an hour and a half, is a jury's lounge, counting the small toilet next to it, it will not exceed 40 square meters. The director uses his magical artistic expression to present an intriguing and touching story in this house of less than 40 square meters.
Then there was the 97 version of "Twelve Angry Men", the Japanese version of "Twelve Good Japanese" and the Russian version of "Twelve Angry Men". The Great Trial" is the same as the domestic version of "Twelve Citizens", the Japanese version of Tang Yin has not seen it, and the other four versions have been seen, in general, the worst is the domestic version of "Twelve Citizens".
Of course, this is just his personal opinion, and it is not because he is flattering. But it is undeniable that several old drama bones in the domestic version of "Twelve Citizens" are too powerful, and they have completely copied half of the garbage film with a bunch of bullshit logic, and their acting skills are unspeakable.
There are many reasons for Tang Yin to feel that the domestic version of garbage is the first of all, the reason is the system, there is no so-called jury in China at all, it is all the leaders who have the final say or the evidence has the final say, and the evidence gives way in front of the leaders. For the director, it may not be his fault, because this is only suitable for movies that produce castrated versions, or movies that are entertained by the whole people, and the leadership must not be discussed or the system must be discussed, so he chose the wrong type to remake this movie.
It's also true that he also came out with a mock jury, and he forced a prosecutor to come out to be No. 8, if it weren't for Comrade Lao He's excellent performance, it is estimated that this film would have jumped directly, are you playing a dream movie? And pull a 12 citizens to do howling, in this place you make others willing to pay for it, but it's not just a matter of shouting slogans, the old era of shouting slogans to make people stupid has long passed. The unknown melon-eating masses who passed by didn't have the heart to look at it when they heard that most of the citizens were there, you really think of yourself as a citizen, do you show me one? Tomorrow I will check your water meter and demolish your house.
