Chapter 208: Tears and sighs

Strange? Don't be surprised. [No pop-up novel network]

How the filming of "Rouge Buckle" is made, the outside media and many film critics have been paying attention for too long. Lu Yan is so popular that many film critics who have not read the novel "Rouge Buckle" have bought and watched it. What they are trying to do is just to see what kind of story Lu Yan is filming. After the shooting, what kind of differences will there be from the original book?

and filmed literary films, but from a commercial point of view, two kings and queens in the music world were selected to star. Can such a film be praised for its literary and artistic value?

No one knows, so everyone has been waiting for the day when "Rouge Buckle" will be released.

"Rouge Buckle" was finally released, and the audience naturally bought tickets to watch it. And those who are lucky enough to attend this premiere ceremony. saw Leslie Cheung, Anita Mui and others who they had been waiting for a long time, and Cheng Xiaodong, Liu Weiqiang, and other behind-the-scenes members who were already a little famous also came to the scene to support.

"Yan Zai, you are still the same......"

Looking at Lu Yan's leisurely appearance, Leslie Cheung on the side smiled and then looked at Anita Mui on the side and said, "Amei, don't be nervous." I used to be like you, but at that time, Yan Zai looked very calm. After "A Chinese Ghost Story", I got used to it. I feel that he doesn't have to worry about the box office at all when he makes films."

"Worry or not, it's useless in this meeting. It's better to relax, and you'll know how the reputation is later" When Lu Yan heard this, he saw Anita Mui, who was a little anxious, smiled and blinked: "Look, my brother is so comfortable now." ”

""Rouge Buckle", the literary film Jiawei, look at those audiences, ......" Cheng Xiaodong looked at the audience around him with a smile, and said to Wong Kar-wai: "Yan Zai has such magic, and they are already sitting in anticipation before the movie is played."

Literary films, no one knows what Lu Yan's literary films look like. In fact, the audience is not waiting quietly because of the literary film, they are also softly talking to each other. It's just that compared to the performance when watching other movies, there is more waiting and peace.

"Bang"

The headlights in the movie theater suddenly went out. Immediately after, the logo of Dongcheng Image appeared on the screen!

The opening of "Rouge Buckle" this time is different from previous movies such as "A Chinese Ghost Story". Instead, the subtitles of the producer, actors, behind-the-scenes and final director were first typed, but the first picture that appeared immediately afterwards surprised the audience.

Anita Mui plays the role of a flower, dressing herself up with blank eyes. Dressed in a cheongsam, it is indescribably sad in his gestures. And the accompanying music is the main theme of the song of the same name "Rouge Buckle".

This slightly sentimental melody made Wong Kar-wai's eyes shine. He whispered to Cheng Xiaodong beside him, "Is this created by Yan Zai?" ”

"Yes" Cheng Xiaodong smiled, Lu Yan basically makes a song for each of his movies. This "Rouge Buckle", of course, is no exception from his handwriting.

When Anita Mui's role as a flower reappeared, a neat soap-colored men's dress made this woman stand out from a group of vulgar fat fans, outstanding and outstanding, and received a stunning effect. The reason why Lu Yan arranged it like this was because Leslie Cheung's appearance was too eye-catching. If Anita Mui is a woman's clothes, then it must be overshadowed under Leslie Cheung's image.

It is this kind of genius that makes Anita Mui sing "Autumn Hate". All of a sudden, this distinctive heroine took root in the hearts of the audience.

And Leslie Cheung, handsome, round and jade, is really eye-catching when he appears, and he undoubtedly becomes the focus of the audience. Passing by with other actresses, he smiled back, and stood opposite to Anita Mui. The two looked at each other, and immediately glued, but they didn't say a word to each other, only swirled around with their bodies, forced with their eyes, all the heartbeats, emotions, temptations, and desires to refuse and welcome, all of which flowed in the sonorous southern sound, and the camera was subtle and gorgeous, and it was moving......

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Watching other movies, the audience will inevitably whisper. At the premiere of "Rouge Buckle", the audience was silent. is just a few simple shots, and a song "Ketu Autumn Hate" brought the audience to that era and brought it into such a story between a prostitute and a girl.

Wong Kar-wai, who still asked Cheng Xiaodong some questions from time to time, also stared at the screen and watched it seriously.

Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui and others have all watched the film. They came over to dub the voice later, but the atmosphere of the scene made them unconsciously start to feel solemn.

Lu Yan used a vague lens language to show the extravagant atmosphere of Fengyue Field in the thirties of the last century, and it was this kind of shooting method that quickly substituted the audience into it.

Whether it is the costumes of the characters, the environment and the scenery, or many words and deeds, Lu Yan is very exquisite.

At the beginning of the movie, Lu Yan's shooting skills and hidden meanings were clear at a glance. Ruhua sang "Ketu Autumn Hate" for the guests, Ruhua was wearing a black caftan and a black hat. With a folding fan in his hand, he sang in a room with red carpet, pink walls, and floor-to-ceiling sliding windows. On the other side are the prostitutes who are eating and drinking, and this strong and bright color contrast and visual effect set off the decadent atmosphere of the Red Mansion, and also make the audience feel the lively atmosphere in the courtyard at that time.

But when showing the love between Ruhua and Chen Shishishao, Lu Yan dealt with a feeling full of grievances. The expressionless conversation and demeanor of the flower face shows a sense of loneliness and coldness everywhere. She swallowed opium fearlessly before dying, and hugged her lover tightly and left peacefully, her coldness was gone. Love makes her miserable in waiting, and there is nowhere to appeal. A large number of cold-toned shots bring this mood to life.

In terms of narration, Lu Yan unexpectedly used interspersing and reminiscing to insert the love story adapted from "Rouge Buckle" into the hearts of the audience.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Immediately, the movie was played. Everyone's mentality has been slowly changing with the movie. The look is like twelve less, and the beauty is like a flower. One is the twelve young people in the north-south line, and the other is the top card of the Jiyuan. This kind of love is not uncommon. Therefore, viewers who have not read the original work of "Rouge Buckle" naturally think that this will be a wonderful love.

But when Ruhua appeared in the eighties, everyone knew that she had come to look for the twelve......

Whether it is in the movie or in the original book, in terms of the behavior of the twelve young people alone, he has done what a man can do for his beloved woman: send flower cards, send copper beds, love lightly, and obey everywhere.

Even the old bustard couldn't help but speak: "I went from the mouth of the puddle to Shitangzui, and I have been a proprietress for more than 20 years, and I have never seen a filial son, like you, a warm-hearted old deed, so know Miss Wen ...... so well."

In the case of his parents' disapproval, he ran away from home and lived with Ruhua in the face of the world's disapproval. even did not hesitate to learn drama to make a living in a low voice, and in the film, the eldest old Uncle Hua said the ordeal he needed to go through: "To be an apprentice, you must first serve the master, serve tea, pour water, and serve a spittoon...... I'm afraid that you, the prince, can't stand it. And he suffered.

In order to make the twelve young people played by Leslie Cheung more sympathetic, Lu Yan deliberately added details in the movie. He needs to make the hero and heroine of the story love and hate the audience, and he wants the audience to be moved by this love story, but more sighs.

It is precisely because of this that in the original work, the twelve young people of the flower generation were dotted in many ways, and they were exempted from the hard labor of serving the master. But in the movie shot by Lu Yan, everyone can see clearly: he even served a spittoon, so he naturally did everything, with the background of a prince.

In the original work, the twelve young people quarreled with Ruhua, scolded others, and even proposed to Ruhua to break up under the persecution of his family. And not in the movie, the two have never been separated, and when they talked about "wearing a cheongsam for Shuxian", it was already the time when the two decided to be martyred.

And the biggest change is that the twelve young people in the original book did not eat opium. When he saw the tragic situation of Ruhua's death, he panicked and wanted to flee, but he was poisoned by the sleeping pills that Ruhua had ordered in advance. But in the movie, the audience can see it: he eats. Although there was a moment of hesitation when Ruhua handed over the first spoonful of opium, he accepted it. After unknowingly drinking Ruhua's poisonous wine, he ate opium with Ruhua spoonful by spoonful.

However, this is where the biggest divergence lies. Ruhua died, but the twelve young did not die. It is precisely because of this that the psychology of the audience began to tilt as Lu Yan grasped.

If "A Chinese Ghost Story" earned enough sympathy and tears from the audience with the ghost love of Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian, then now this "Rouge Buckle" is even better

But when the story was clear, some female viewers began to sob. And the male audience is also hot in their eyes. And Lu Yan even added fuel to the fire at the end of the ending.

In the end, Ruhua returned the rouge box, the love object that Chen Twelve Shao gave her back then.

"Twelve Shao, thank you for remembering me, I have carried this rouge box for fifty-three years, and now I will return it to you, I will not wait any longer." Ruhua's sadness, disappointment, regret and some hatred are condensed in these words, and Chen Twelve, who has tears in his eyes, shouts "Ruhua forgive me" and does not look back.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

When Anita Mui's low, mournful singing sounded, many of the audience at the scene finally couldn't help but start crying.

The oath is illusory, the words of the smoke and clouds, the words of the smoke and clouds, the thoughts and feelings are as hot as the fire, how to burn, how to burn for a lifetime, it is not easy to continue the negative feelings, it is your name is wrong, and the lovesickness is like water passing to the east, and the infatuation is poured in vain

……………………………

There were no standing shouts, cheers and applause from the audience, only silence and sobbing and crying.

For example, flowers are born for love and die for love. Luckily, she met the person she loved, but unfortunately her status was lowly and not tolerated by the world. The sorrow of women is, firstly, the feudal bondage of the old society, and secondly, the unreserved love that leaves no way back. Women are mostly sensual, and love is the most important thing they value. And most men are rational creatures, they know how to make trade-offs, how to protect themselves from harm. A lot of times it's like this.

Is Twelve Young True Love Like a Flower?

Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Lu Yan has already led Leslie Cheung, Anita Mui and others to get up, although the audience did not applaud. But he was sure that the film was clearly a success. He took a group of leading actors and behind-the-scenes personnel and began to bow to the audience and thank them for their support.

Just after they bowed, the applause suddenly grew small. Immediately, it spread throughout the cinema. Like bursting applause, rushing to the face.

Seeing this scene, Anita Mui finally couldn't contain her excitement and hugged Leslie Cheung tightly beside her. Maybe Ruhua and Twelve Shao in the movie are not together after all, but here, Ruhua and Twelve Shao are affectionately embracing.

"It scared the hell out of me just now"

Hearing Anita Mui's words, Lu Yan smiled on the side: "Hehe, you acted so well." ”

"Congratulations, director"

"Congratulations, congratulations. Yan Zai, you have earned all our tears. Cheng Xiaodong's eyes were a little hot, and this movie really brought them in quickly.

Wong Kar-wai also nodded, and then said: "Yan Zai, "Mong Kok Carmen" will be my debut novel at that time. When the time comes, will you make an exception to write me a theme song? ”

In addition to the movie itself, the song "Rouge Buckle" undoubtedly made everyone feel a lot of emotion

The audience applauded vigorously, and their fans screamed and shouted.

The audience, and the entertainment reporters, apparently did not notice that a female audience member was quietly getting up and leaving the theater somewhere in the corner of the movie theater.

She is Li Bihua, and Lu Yanzhi sincerely invited her to attend the premiere. However, she politely refused Lu Yan's invitation, but she secretly bought a ticket to come in and watch. What she came to see was not the movie, but the audience's reaction. Before the release of "Rouge Buckle", she watched it. Now that she has conquered the audience, she can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The audience finally broke away from the play, and the emcee ran to the stage with a sigh of relief and said: "I think many people are a little teary-eyed like me now." I have to say that Director Lu made us sad again, let us invite the main creators of "Rouge Buckle" to play"
