The blue sky and white clouds outside the car are beautiful and pleasant, while the car keeps moving at high speed on the airport, and another bomb may explode at any time, and the shadow of death hangs over the heads of the heroes and heroines Jack and Annie, who finally slide out from under the car and escape from the deadly speed cage.
"...... Uproar"
The applause is very loud, but because the number of audiences is too small, it seems to be extremely sparse, but no one cares about these, after experiencing the test of life and death along the way and the baptism of tension and excitement, they are like the heroes and heroines in the film, and they need to use the most appropriate way to vent the high feelings caused by the movie.
"Boom ......"
The driverless bus crashed into a Boeing cargo plane, and the flames of the explosion were surging, occupying all the audience's vision, and pushing their love to the peak completely!
It's an explosion that elevates the audience's emotions to the point where nerves can break!
The picture gradually shifts, and in the wide-angle shot, the distant sunset is about to sink into the ground, dyeing the sky red with the firelight of the explosion, this beautiful scenery is refreshing, and instantly relieves the tense heartstrings.
But these are far from enough, the audience needs to use a more hearty way to vent the feelings that have accumulated for dozens of minutes.
So, under the beautiful sunset, Jack and Anne, who were lying on the ground, finally kissed together, and the picture was surrounded by 360 degrees in slow motion, showing the audience this deep kiss after suffering in the most beautiful way.
In just a few minutes, applause rang out again!
This is a deep kiss that can make the audience vent heartily to an extremely refreshing heart!
"It's so beautiful, it's so romantic!"
A girl's exclamation came from behind Duke, "Keanu Reeves and Uma Thurman are so compatible, they shouldn't just be a screen couple, how nice it would be if they were also a couple in reality!" ”
Hearing this, Duke's heart moved, if the film can be released on a large scale, maybe he can make a fuss about this when promoting?
In another theater in Los Angeles, Kunitez sat in his seat and muttered, "The shocking explosion sucked my soul, and the beautiful footage made my head dizzy......
"Shut up!"
At the same time, several voices of scolding for being disturbed to watch the movie sounded around.
The film is not over yet, as the owner of the protagonist's halo, Jack Su must face the villain and stage a king-to-king show, and this scene is also placed on the transportation often used in the city - the subway!
The heroines in commercial films are all vases, and although Anne is a little wild, she is a standard American silly big sister, who was kidnapped by bombers and taken to the subway, waiting for the male protagonist to come to the rescue.
Jack rushes into the subway car, but faces almost the same scene when facing the building, Anne has a bomb strapped to her body, and the bomber holds the remote control, which will explode as soon as he lets go, and the two are in a tense confrontation!
The theater fell completely silent, and the audience was staring at the screen, wanting to see how Jack saved the heroine, and what kind of way would he use? Is it Arnold's unreasonable power strike? Or is it Willis's desperate fight to the death? Or Stallone-style Xiaoqiang who can't die no matter how he fights?
The bomber stands behind Anne who is cuffed to the subway handrail, and further away is the dead subway driver, who threatens Jack, who seems to be at a loss.
But in the place where the bomber can't see, the stupid big sister with a somewhat wild personality has been staring at Jack, when she saw Jack's chin nodded slightly, she quietly moved her body to find a good angle, and kicked heavily at the bomber's vital position, just between the lightning and flint, Jack rushed up and snatched the bomber's remote control, and held his head and slammed it into the subway car, and the bomber's aging body slowly fell.
"He lost the key!"
Anne reminds Jack, who is looking for the handcuff key, and Jack instantly understands that the bomber has no intention of keeping Anne alive by doing this.
The bomb can't be defused, the handcuffs can't be opened, and the subway is out of control, and Jack decides to accompany Anne in the face of danger......
"It's so touching......" This is a female audience.
"It's too bloody......" This is a male audience.
Whether it's touching or bloody, deep down they want to see such a plot, don't they?
As for the heroes and heroines, they won't be worried, with the halo of the protagonist, will their lives be in danger?
So, the big scene at the end of the film appeared, the subway rushed all the way underground, soared into the air with an unstoppable momentum, smashed the closed subway station, and rushed into the streets of Los Angeles, and then the hero and heroine kissed deeply again in the police lights and the crowd watching.
Sparse applause rang out again, and the subtitles of the film slowly fell, the most striking of which was the work of Duke Rosenberg!
"Remember the name!"
As he was about to leave, Kunitez said to his companions, "The film he made is ......"
Unable to find the right words to compliment for a while, he said to Jones, "If he has a next work, I'll be in the theater." ”
"Me too." Jones walked out with his partner, remembered the questionnaire stuffed into his pocket, and quickly asked, "Guys, who brought the pen?" ”
"I have!" The female companion handed over a pen.
Because there were not many viewers, with the help of the not-so-bright lights, Jones drew a heavy stroke on the position of the questionnaire 'A+', and Kunitez next to him grabbed the pen and also chose the 'A+' on the questionnaire.
"You all have to choose A+!" He said to the rest of his companions.
"Cut ......," said the female companion dismissively, "do you think we would be stupid enough to choose something else for such a good movie?" ”
The group laughed at the same time.
Walking to the door, they handed the questionnaire to the staff of the theater, and after walking a few steps, the voice of the middle-aged man suddenly sounded behind them.
"Oops, I didn't bring a pen."
Although the questionnaire was not mandatory, Johnson felt that he had to do something for such a wonderful movie, and he looked at the small questionnaire, simply ripped out the part that only had an A+ score, and handed it to the staff.
"Uh......"
The crowd around them was a little taken aback, and then burst into laughter, followed by more people who didn't have pens with them, who also chose to tear off the A+, and they were happy to do something for the film.
In another theater, Duke and his mother walked out of the theater, surrounded by the sound of talking about the movie.
"When the hero and heroine hug each other and kiss the wolf, the energy is as cool as a bomb exploding."
"From the elevator to the bus to the subway battle, my heart has always been on my throat."
"After blowing up the elevator and blowing up the bus, after blowing up the bus and bombing the subway, I was so bombed that I was racing against time to go to the toilet, and my heart was terrified!"
"This director has a special fanaticism for explosions, and the explosions he shoots are very impactful."
Although he also heard some negative voices, at least 90% of the more than ten viewers who came out were extremely satisfied with their words and demeanor, which also made Duke a little nervous because of the poor attendance, and he also told himself that this was a weekday screening, and the publicity of the film was relatively limited, and the screening effect in the first few days would definitely not be very good.
Arriving at the parking lot, Duke sat in the driver's seat of the Mercedes Benz and waited for his mother to get into her car before starting the car and leaving the theater that tugged at his heartstrings for good.
"Duke ......"
Hearing his mother's words, Duke turned his head to look at the same, "Mom? ”
"You're doing a great job, much better than I thought." Mrs. Leah sat back in the passenger seat, as if thinking about something, and after a moment said, "From me...... From the point of view of the most ordinary audience, the film is very exciting and good-looking, it can attract me to keep watching, without the slightest thought of leaving the theater, I think, maybe you will create some surprises. ”
"Thank you!" Duke looked at his mother, who had been paying attention to him, "Thank you for your support, Mom!" ”
There is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no hate for no reason, twenty-one years of getting along is enough to cultivate a lot of family affection, and it is the seemingly gambling support of his mother that he has the first opportunity to pick up the guide tube in Hollywood, which is full of strife and snobbery, otherwise I don't know how long I will have to wait.
"Don't put that much pressure on yourself."
When she was about to get home, Lady Leah said, "You are still young, and even if you fail, you still have a chance to start over." ”
Yes, if "Life and Death" really hits the streets, he will be like David Fincher or Michael Bay, who has not yet made a career, and slowly go to the advertising or music video industry to slowly work hard, and work hard to accumulate qualifications, until he waits for years or more before re-entering the Hollywood directorial world.
This is a path that many well-known Hollywood directors have walked or are taking.
Despite thinking about what to do in case of failure, Duke's anxiety was not alleviated much when he returned home, he was a very normal person, and these feelings were also the director's normal expression.
When the film is not finished, the director will be distressed by the production of the film; After the film is completed, it will work hard for the release of the film; After the film is released, I will be anxious about the box office and the response, this is a very stressful profession, and the kind of director who is free and free without pressure is only in fantasy.
Duke's biggest problem is that he doesn't have a place to pour out his pressure.
"Maybe it's time for me to find a temporary female companion."
When he went for a walk on the promenade in the evening, Duke couldn't help but have this thought, when he was in school, he had a few temporary girlfriends, but as he told his mother, they were just playing, he didn't have so much energy to fall in love, and since he started "Life and Death", he has completely left the question of the relationship between men and women behind.
Everyone's energy is limited, and the superman with unlimited energy does not exist, and if he invests too much in women, correspondingly, the director's career, which requires a high degree of concentration, will definitely be affected.
The long night came again, and because he couldn't get the first day's screenings, Duke lost sleep again and didn't fall asleep until the early hours of the morning, and when he finally woke up in the middle of the morning, he immediately called Robin Grande.
