Chapter 176: Thunderous applause

The real James? By the time Ryan appeared, more than half of the film had gone by, to Kenneth? Turan's inference, according to Hollywood production rules and Duke? Rosenberg's habit, there must be a big war next to achieve the final redemption.

But he clearly felt that Ryan was not important, Duke? Rosenberg's purpose is very clear - it doesn't matter who you save, what matters is the act of saving people.

At the same time, as a veteran film critic and media practitioner, Kenneth? Turan was keenly aware that the film would inevitably spark a wave of discussion when it was released, even if it was so in line with American values!

Duke? Rosenberg never seems to ignore the market? Kenneth? A helpless smile hung on the corner of Turan's mouth, controversy and trends can often kill a movie or detonate a movie, what about "Saving Private Ryan"?

The climactic battle was approaching, and the applause in the theater had already fallen, and Kunitez's eyes widened and he stared straight at the screen, his companions next to him, and even all the audience around him.

Many of these audiences who came to the premiere came for the director, and they have an understanding of Duke's habits, since the battle at the beginning is so wonderful and cruel that it makes people's souls tremble, what kind of viewing experience will the climactic scene bring at the end?

"There is still a moment of calm before the big war."

Hearing Erin's words, Anna laughed, leaned into her ear and whispered, "Director Rosenberg is using good memories to highlight the brilliance of humanity." ”

In Anna's eyes. Revealing the world of human feelings through the fate of the battlefield is Duke's most important progress and success in this film, in order to express the perfection of human nature and the fear of war. He deliberately arranged a moment of tranquility before the second war of the film, in which people can experience the brilliance of human nature and the destruction of human nature by war.

In this passage, the camera shows Captain Miller's trembling hands and a medium shot of his upper body, Anna sees the supreme commander of the squad worried and hopeless about his fate before the big battle, and when he sits down to talk to Ryan about his family, he tells Ryan to remember the specific things he was with his family instead of their voices and smiles.

Duke cleverly uses a set of front and back shots here, which are basically close-ups of the faces of the two people. Anna saw helplessness and bitterness in their expressions, and the young director seemed to figure out Guò Ryan's mouth. The good life of thousands of ordinary American soldiers before the war was passed on to everyone, but the war took away all this qiē.

In this moment of tranquility, there is no quarrel, no doubt. Although they don't know what their fate will be in the end, they all welcome the arrival of the fierce battle with their comrades with fond memories of the past.

The director's intention to put together this moment of tranquility and the fierce battle that will inevitably occur later is very obvious, in order to highlight the preciousness of this quiet life and the cruelty of war, and to express his affirmation of the value of life.

Compared to Anna, Kenneth on the other side? Turan had a different feeling.

In his opinion, a director with a true sense of justice and responsibility will not only be obsessed with the bloodshed and excitement of war, but should pay more attention to human feelings, human nature, and the precious mental state embodied by people in war. In this way, human beings can realize the abhorrence of war and the preciousness of peace, so that every viewer can cherish peace from the heart. Stay away from war.

Duke? Rosenberg finally controlled his inner desire to destroy miè, and borrowed the ruin miè of war to express an extremely profound theme.

What is the next step in order to deepen this theme and at the same time make it a force for the audience to remember and completely move people's hearts?

That is sacrifice, and there is no more appropriate way than sacrifice!

Don't think about it. Kenneth? Turan could also guess that most of the members of the squad would inevitably fall on this bridgehead.

War. Everyone has a good life, and everyone has something they have to be sentimental and reluctant to give up when they are hit by a bullet, so what is it? Maybe in the United States, it's a family memory, and somewhere else, something else to cherish and nostalgic for, but something far away.

And the role of war here is only to destroy what can be destroyed, and the fighters are trying to recapture what they can recapture.

In order to save Ryan, who represents the good, sacrifice is inevitable, and the members of the squad die one by one until Captain Miller......

After being shot, Captain Miller sat on the edge of the bridge, and shot weakly at the Tiger tank with a small pistol, and finally the rescue P-51 plane arrived to blow up the tank.

"Don't let everyone down," Miller said before he died, "Ryan, live well......"

Sobbing rang out in the theater, and although one person's voice was not too loud, there were too many people sobbing.

Erin pinched her sour nose, "I know it's sensational, why do I still want to cry?" ”

"Because the director used the whole film to pave the sacrifice and sensationalism of this moment." Anna was calmer, "Captain Miller is a hero. ”

Yes, Captain Miller is a hero, a typical civilian American hero, and the sacrifice of such a hero is the most infectious.

Kunitez gently wiped his eyes with the back of his hand, and Alan and Jones next to him were doing similar actions, and Owen on the other side had a glint of water in his eyes, which finally flowed slowly, and he seemed to be still immersed in the movie, and he didn't mean to wipe it at all.

"It is with great pleasure that I inform you, my dear Mrs. Ryan, that your son James? Ryan was unscathed, and at this point, he was on his way home from the battlefields of Europe. Reports from the front line claim that James fulfilled his duty with valor and determination, even when he learned of the misfortune of his family in the great war to overthrow dictatorship and oppression. It is my pleasure to join the Secretary of War and all the officers and men of the U.S. Army and the citizens of the United States in wishing you good health and happiness with James by your side, whose heartache can only be compensated for by the safe return of your beloved son......"

Captain Miller died, Admiral Marshall's voice sounded as a voiceover, it was the U.S. government reading a congratulatory letter to Ryan's mother, on the battlefield where the smoke had not yet cleared, the empty camera slowly moving, the collapsed clock tower, the deep craters, the broken bridge deck and the corpses, the expressions of everyone who moved were calm and serene, they were still alive, they were listening, the language that the military praised Ryan was so beautiful, it was also the language of all the sergeants, all the living including Urban, and those who died, more fearless.

"Once war and life are placed on both sides of the same scale, then the weight of the word 'ruined miè' is doomed."

Kenneth? Turan heard Todd? McCarthy seems to judge the voice of the film, "The real war film never shies away from the wounds that human beings leave for themselves, and behind the haze of war, it also reflects the brilliant light of human nature." ”

Todd? McCarthy turned to look at Kenneth? Turan, "The film is wonderful, Duke? Rosenberg went beyond our imagination, he went above and beyond himself! I can praise him here, and I will praise him only here! ”

Seeing an old friend smile helplessly, Todd? McCarthy turned his head and said no more, the film was so correct, right that he wanted to baash Duke? Rosenberg must be cautious!

If you attack the subject matter of the film, it's just to get yourself in trouble, and it's painless to attack other aspects, Todd? McCarthy suddenly had a feeling that he had nowhere to speak, and after thinking for a few seconds, he came up with the best way to deal with it - ignore Duke? Rosenberg's new film, as if it never existed.

Is salvation worth it?

It seems that the director has not given a very clear answer, when the picture returns to the elderly James? Ryan was there, and finally had an explanation.

Ryan was saved, returned to his hometown, and lived a safe life, and in his old age, he came to the grave of his comrades-in-arms to remember, and asked his wife with tears in his eyes, is he a good.man? His wife held his face to affirm that he was, and the old face was a little relieved.

"I'm alive and well, am I a good person?"

The film immediately gives the answer, and his wife replies, "You're a good person!" ”

The gray-haired man gave a military salute to Colonel Miller's grave, and the fluttering Star-Spantiled Banner reappeared, and the curtain fell on the film......

The subtitles slowly fell, and there was silence in the theater, and Tina, who was sitting next to Duke? Fei couldn't help but look back, judging from the applause of the audience during the film screening, shouldn't it be this attitude now? Don't the audience approve of this film?

Her eyes fell on her employer's face again, and Duke sat there calmly, his dark eyes seemed to be full of confidence?

If she were to judge, it would have been a good movie, even a classic in war films, and the young director next to him had a near-perfect combination of visual effects that he was best at and ideas that he didn't have before, even if there were a lot of sensational scenes in it, it still seemed natural and smooth without being pretentious.

The theater was silent for about five seconds, and then applause erupted like a summer thunderclap, and everyone from the ordinary audience in the back row stood up!

They didn't stand up because they quit! Not because of relaxation! Rather, it is to congratulate and pay tribute to the director and the film! Vent the stirring emotions in their hearts because of the film!

"He's always succeeding!"

Tom? Hanks stood up, took the initiative to walk this way, and without waiting for Duke to reach out his hand, he directly gave a strong hug, "Duke, I am honored for this cooperation!" You gave me a classic character and a classic movie! ”

More and more people came over and sent congratulations!

The applause was thunderous, and there was no tendency to stop, and the audience kept standing and applauding, as if this is the only way to express their love for this film and the young director!

The premiere is over, whether the style of the film can be recognized or not, and it has to be tested by the market! (To be continued)
