""Rouge Buckle" is finished, Lu Yan: I am very confident in my own works
"Produced by Lui, Directed at Tsui Hark"
"Maybe Lu Yan will miss the Spring Festival file again, revealing that maybe the new film will be directed by Cheng Xiaodong and Liu Weiqiang"
I went to "Rouge Buckle" to visit the class last night for an interview, and it was the last scene of "Rouge Buckle" that was completed. The acting skills of Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui seem to have become more and more exquisite after Lu Yan's hands. Watching the filming of this scene also made me very curious about this movie.
Lu Yan is modest, this is his first literary film, and there may be a lot of shortcomings. But I still have a lot of confidence in my own works.
When asked about the arrangement of the Spring Festival stalls, Director Lu also seemed to be a little ignorant. Obviously, he has been busy filming "Rouge Buckle". Maybe it will make him miss the Spring Festival, but no matter what. With the movie "Rouge Buckle", I think the audience is already satisfied. But if Lu Yan misses the Spring Festival file, then this year's director Lu will only have one work left, "Rouge Buckle". No matter what angle it is, I think many fans of Director Lu will flock to it.
Coupled with the two leading actors, Leslie Cheung and Anita Mui, who are the first brother and sister in the music world, their appeal is absolutely undoubted. Especially Leslie Cheung, who won the Golden Melody Award again. In terms of movies, there are distinct characters like Ajie and Ning Caichen. His acting skills have also been recognized by film critics
Regarding the arrangement of the Spring Festival file, Lu Yan said that in addition to Wang Jing, Cheng Xiaodong and Liu Weiqiang would also direct the filming.
Is it a coincidence or a showdown? 》
There is a matter of the completion of director Tsui Hark's "Sword and Horse", and it has been a long time since "Rouge Buckle" was completed. However, "Sword and Horse" has not been released for a long time, and according to director Tsui Hark's answer, it is to avoid commercial films such as "God of Gamblers" and "Rich Train". But if that's the case, it's against the fact that it was filmed at a time that coincided with the summer season.
The casting shooting of "Rouge Buckle" was after "Sword and Horse". It is rumored that Lin Qingxia was intended to play the heroine at that time, but because the two themes are similar and Lin Qingxia has already taken on several movies, she was pushed away.
So, did Lu Yan follow suit when he learned that Tsui Hark was shooting literary films? Both films are predominantly female......
The original Lu Yan was slowly filming based on the principle of slow work and meticulous work, but after finding that "Dao Ma Dan" had not been released for a long time, he quickly started filming.
It is not difficult to see that Director Lu Da seems to want to have a showdown with 'teacher' Tsui Hark in literary films
Was it a coincidence, or had the two premeditated for a long time......
Of course, there is no denying that the appeal of the two films to the masses is unquestionable. The reputation of Tsui Hark's movies has always been undisputed. And the quality of Lu Yan's movies and the sense of expectation for the public are definitely the strongest in the Hong Kong film industry today. When two masterpieces meet, who wins and who loses?
Ginger or old spicy? Blue out of blue and better than blue?
Everything is waiting to be separated from the box office and word of mouth
The completion of "Rouge Buckle" is not only the media in the outside world finally breathing a sigh of relief. Rao is inside the Dongcheng Image, and he finally saw the completion of "Rouge Buckle".
Lu Yan has said several times that the filming of "Rouge Buckle" is nearing the end, but it has not been completed for a long time. Now, the staff are finally on vacation. And Lu Yan also returned to the company with the ** of "Rouge Buckle" and handed it over to Hu Dawei for editing.
This time, "Rouge Buckle" was edited, and Lu Yan no longer interfered too much with Hu Dawei at all. Because, he handed over this job to Miss Li Bihua. The familiarity with "Rouge Buckle" is none other than that of the original author. Although there will definitely be many differences between the movie and the original book, the emotional tension and the connection between the bridges. Li Bihua still has a good sense of sensitivity in this regard.
And, leave it to her to keep an eye on the editing. By the way, let her see if "Rouge Buckle" can be satisfied, after all, if even Li Bihua is not satisfied, then Lu Yan will definitely have to carry out some reshooting and integration work.
In fact, in Lu Yan's "Rouge Buckle", many shots have their own meanings. This also made Hu Dawei very embarrassed, and even edited it to strangle a lot of brain cells.
In the original book, the twelve young people never appeared positively, and almost always only appeared in the memories of Ruhua. Originally, there were not many scenes of him in the movie, because Leslie Cheung's performance was really good. Guan Jinpeng added and added his scenes, and he still only appeared for 32 minutes in the one-and-a-half-hour film (the back, side, and the scene of most of the heroine's body blocked by the heroine have all been counted). Even so, he was still nominated for Best Actor at the Academy Awards, which shows that his acting skills are recognized by the industry. But in the end, he lost to Sammo Hung in "Seven Little Blessings" by one vote, and it is said that the reason for the defeat was "insufficient scenes", which made Lu Yan a little confused.
is now directed by Lu Yanlai "Rouge Buckle", and his situation is actually not much different from Guan Jinpeng. Because the requirements for Leslie Cheung were relatively high from the beginning, every scene played by Leslie Cheung was undoubtedly very exquisite. It's just that his role needs to be controlled. Because of this, Lu Yan simply put this problem in the hands of Hu Dawei. What will happen to the finished film, Lu Yan has no way of knowing now
"Yan Zai, your "Rouge Buckle" is waiting for us. Finale reception, you should hurry up" Cheng Xiaodong looked at Lu Yan with blazing eyes, he thought about it and couldn't help but speak: "I think, you can't relax"
"Huh? Why can't I relax, now that "Rouge Buckle" has been filmed, I'm really tired. ”
Facing Lu Yan's natural look, Cheng Xiaodong smiled bitterly: "Although Liu Zhenwei, Wong Kar-wai and Wang Fatzi will compete for the box office of Dongcheng Imaging during the Spring Festival, I think it is still necessary for you to prepare a script for filming quickly, after all, the main director of Dongcheng Imaging is you, and you also need a few more movies now to lay the foundation for your strength in the film industry."
"This ......" Lu Yan groaned for a while, thinking about it: "Look, everything will wait until "Rouge Buckle" is released." I know you're afraid that the films of Lau Chun-wai and Wong Kar-wai may lack appeal at the box office. In fact, I am very optimistic about the movie "The Saint of Gambling". As for Wong Kar-wai...... I know this guy better than you, he likes to do abstract films. ”
As he spoke, Lu Yan suddenly smiled and said, "It's really not good, Brother Xiaodong, you also directed a film that was filmed last time "A Chinese Ghost Story", I think the scenes you are responsible for are very good."
In fact, Cheng Xiaodong's directing ability is not bad, when he first filmed "The True Color of Heroes". In the end, it was also shot in groups, and it was Cheng Xiaodong who led the second shooting team. So in Lu Yan's opinion, Cheng Xiaodong is completely fine as a director.
Although Cheng Xiaodong is also very eager to produce a work of his own, he still feels that he needs to learn. When it comes to martial arts instruction, he has a lot of confidence. But with him in charge of the guide tube, he still has a lot of considerations and pressure. At the beginning, whether it was filming "The True Color of Heroes" or "A Chinese Ghost Story", I had to ask Lu Yan for something every day. To put it mildly, it is the feeling of receiving Lu Yan's instructions to shoot.
Because of this, Cheng Xiaodong smiled and said, "I'll learn something from you first......
Do you want to learn something...... Lu Yan smiled. If there is really a family leader, it is none other than Cheng Xiaodong. There are too many directors he has worked with. Even the gold medal producers of the TV series......
Since Cheng Xiaodong said so, Lu Yan was not in a hurry and said: "You still refuse, I really didn't say anything." Next time, I will directly throw you the script and give you a death order"
"Hehe, you're revenge"
"I've asked Yi Zai to arrange the finale party of "Rouge Buckle", by the way, what about Wang Jing's celebration banquet? This box office is going to break 40 million, and he won't do it? ”
Faced with Lu Yan's doubts, Cheng Xiaodong could only smile bitterly: "This guy is busy writing the script, saying that he will wait"
"He's in a hurry? Well, it's no wonder ......" Lu Yan nodded, and now Liu Zhenwei has begun to hand over the script to Stephen Chow. It is estimated that it is already a matter of minutes to shoot.
Although Wong Kar-wai has not yet made preparations, this guy needs a script for filming. When the time comes, as soon as the actors are in place, it is no wonder that Wang Jing is in such a hurry.
After thinking about it, Lu Yan said, "You don't have to worry about it, you don't have to worry about it, and set up the celebration banquet first." By the way, on the day of the premiere of "Rouge Buckle", you all have to be there to cheer."
"Come on, you want us to observe and learn" Cheng Xiaodong scolded with a smile, but also agreed. "Rouge Buckle", everyone has been curious for a long time. What kind of shooting is it that can make Lu Yan spend so long?
