Chapter 242: The Gorgeous Transformation of Song and Dance Films
Back in the high-end business suite, Alan didn't take a break immediately like Kunites, but turned on the computer equipped in the room, logged in to the blast maniac section of the movie website, and entered the chat room.
This small chat room has expanded from the initial dozens of people to hundreds of people.
"Count the premiere in New York and it should be over."
As soon as he landed in, Allen saw Duke Miรจ speaking, "Has anyone gone to see Chicago?" โ
"I went." Allen left a message.
"Is the film good?"
"Isn't it dull?"
"Song and dance movies are the most annoying!"
"yes, I don't understand why Duke made a film like this."
In just a dozen seconds, a lot of complaints came out below, and Alan thought about the film he had watched, which was completely different from the inherent impression of a song and dance film.
He tapped his keyboard quickly with both hands, "Actually, we are all affected by the preconceived notions, this is not a song and dance film of the sixties and seventies, except for the lack of fights and explosions, the film is full of those movie elements that we like and Duke is good at, such as gorgeous visuals, fast-paced short shot switching, allowing the audience to be there from a first-person perspective, and beautiful women, a large number of beautiful and sexy beauties, who dance the most seductive dances...... Especially one of the prison tango, you see Catherine? Zeta? When Jones shakes his โฎโ legs, his blood will definitely be pumping. โ
As soon as Allen's was sent out, Rose Hill suddenly flashed out, "I can attest to it, I just attended the premiere!" Not only are there beautiful women, but the film is very joyful, the song and dance scenes are debauchery and wild, all sexy beauties in the shortest dance clothes, Zeta, hand-picked by Duke? Jones was simply beautiful. โ
There's nothing like a beautiful woman to wake up the beasts on the web.
"Looks like I really should check it out......"
"Hmm...... I'm now thinking about whether to change my mind. โ
Alan took advantage of this time to post another one. "The singing and dancing are sexy and exciting, and the film is full of black humor, I laughed more than a dozen times after watching it, which is very interesting."
Another account called Velma popped up, "I also watched the premiere, I love Velma to death." Zeta? Jones is beautiful, singing and dancing is also good, this is not a singing and dancing literary film! โ
"So I'd like to see it." Duke Miรจ was obviously moved, "Let me ask if there are any tickets for the midnight show?" โ
Rose Hill then reminded him, "There is no midnight show for this film, and it will not be officially released until tomorrow day." โ
"I just called and asked." The GI rescued Ryan who had obviously been diving, and at this time he came up, "None of the three theaters in my small town show "Chicago", I'm!" โ
"My side is also ......"
An id named Jack said. "After listening to Rose Hill's words, I quickly called to book a ticket, I was in Chicago, listening to the tone of the theater, the ticket seemed to be very nervous."
"It won't be so hot, will it?"
"Duke and Tom? Crews collaboration films! โ
Seeing that more and more people in the chat room want to buy tickets as much as possible, Pani? Velma and Rosehill, controlled by two of Kelis's assistants, exited the chat room, and Pani? Kelis stood in front of the computer, looking thoughtful. Obviously, the situation just now had already touched her a little.
"Like...... It seems like we're not doing anything either," she turned to look at with Tina? Faye chats with Duke. "It instigated a lot of people to buy tickets."
"Pani, you've probably heard of it a long time ago, this is the most widely used network among young people." Duke turned his head and looked at his PR, and since he was not an expert himself, he could only say a little bit of big talk. "The network can exchange information freely, and the timeliness is incomparable to that of traditional media, and people who use the network are often more blindly obedient."
Pani? Kelis, after all, is a media PR expert, and immediately thought of some key points, "that is, if we make a fuss on the Internet." Can it affect a large number of Internet users, who will become potential customers for the film? โ
She looked at Duke a little strangely, "So, you want me to find someone to help you build a ...... Personal website? โ
"I just want to have a voice on my own outside of traditional media."
Hear Duke's words, Pani? Kelis nodded, and continued, "Based on the findings you've made, North American Internet users are mostly young people and students, and these people aren't really potential viewers of Chicago......"
"So, I'm just letting you into that movie and TV section about me." Duke takes Tina? Fei handed him and Kelis the water respectively, took a sip, and then said, "I also posted some related news on the website with the highest clicks on the Internet." โ
"We have reached an agreement with them." Pani? Kelis looked at the time, "It should be on the front page of their website." โ
She walked over to the computer and whispered a few words to the assistant, who immediately logged on to a website, Duke and Tina? Fei also walked over, but when he saw the name of the website where the assistant had logged in, he suddenly had an urge to slap himself to death.
The name of this website, which is still prominent on the front page, is 'Yahoo'!
For more than 20 years, those things that have nothing to do with movies are really almost forgotten!
sighed in his heart, Duke returned to normal, he used to be just the most ordinary netizen in addition to his busy work, who has nothing to do to check the specific information of Yahoo or something, it is hell to leave too deep an impression.
"Make a note of this website." Duke turned to Tina? Fei whispered, "Go back and check its basic information." โ
It seems that the boss is surnamed Yang or Yuan? Duke shook his head, went back to check whether the other party was listed, what was the trend of the listing, and maybe the name of another stock could be added to the investment list.
Putting that behind him for now, Duke stood in front of his computer and looked at a new review of Chicago on Yahoo's homepage, knowing that the era of everyone being a film critic was about to begin.
However, this commentary is different from the online propaganda that was completely unruly in the past, and it also has a deep traditional media character.
"The film version of the famous Broadway musical "Chicago" has landed in theaters in New York this year, and the characters in the film are vivid and vivid......"
This report lists several highlights of the film - the song adaptation, the original music, the wonderful dance, the wonderful choreography, and so on.
After Duke watched it, he felt very general, this era. Even the website itself has not yet grasped the point of online advertising.
Although he is also a layman, he has always seen some in his previous life, and this kind of advertising commentary must capture how beautiful the beauties in the film are and how sexy the smooth thighs that swing in the group dance scene are......
However, this online promotion is not only a temporary move before his release, but also an experiment. The main audience of "Chicago" itself is not the group that now makes up netizens.
Today's Internet has not been taken seriously by Hollywood, and even traditional media groups have few computer networks in their eyes.
Because "Chicago" doesn't have a midnight show, with Pani? After Kelis said a few words about building his website, Duke went back to his home on the Upper East Side to rest.
Thursday night fades away, and Friday's sun lights up the Big Apple sky again. Thomas returned from a walk in a park on Long Island and walked to his detached house. I took today's New York Times out of the letterbox, walked across the flat lawn, entered the room, filled myself with a pot of hot coffee, and sat by the sunny window and read the newspaper.
He is a long-time Broadway drama fan, and he has also heard that the movie version of "Chicago" will be released today, especially the entertainment version. Ready to see the film's review, only when he flipped to the familiar column. It's full of voices slamming Star Trek: First Strike and praising The English Patient, and it seems like "Chicago," which premiered last night, has once again been overlooked?
Richard? Thomas shook his head and looked at the rest of the entertainment page, he didn't understand what these critics were pretentious, they could really ban that young director? On the front page of the New York Times, there was still a report about the film.
"Chicago. A triumph for Hollywood genre films! โ
See the headline under the heading, Richard? Thomas came interested, this is the famous drama critic Linda? Wheatley's review article.
"The story of the film is similar to the revue version as a whole, but it was directed by Duke? Rosenberg repackaged it in a modern cinematic way, although the theme was the core of fame and fortune that Hollywood movies repeatedly resell. However, "Chicago" is a song and dance film, but it is not a song and dance film in the typical sense, it uses a different image style to reflect the integration, transformation and innovation of different film genres in the historical changes!
"Duke? Rosenberg's song and dance films have obviously undergone his re-improvement, and the characteristics of film noir are deeply impregnated in it, and his mixing and processing of the two genres of song and dance and film noir make "Chicago" reveal all kinds of charm in the fragrance, and the perfect combination of grand cabaret and low-key and gloomy noir style highlights the multiple characteristics of the film. โ
"With Chicago, what the audience can get is not deep thinking, but a beautiful, diverse, and complex movie-watching experience. Rosenberg's consistently good quality and tradition - well-made, adaptable to the times, and constantly innovative! โ
"It can be said that "Chicago" is a gorgeous transformation of a song and dance film, and the transition, integration and interaction between the song and dance scene and the real scene are stronger than the song and dance version, and it breaks through the blunt method of simple insertion of song and dance passages in traditional song and dance films."
"Duke? Rosenberg makes excellent use of the heavy drama and interpretation of the song and dance film, which completely serves the theme of satire, exposing the decay of the sound and the black and white; At the same time, elements of film noir are almost perfectly injected into the scenes of the film. โ
"Also, the film is carefully conceived in terms of lighting, color tone, etc., so that the film exudes a gloomy and bloody smell in addition to the wild and cigarette!"
See this, Richard? Thomas closed the newspaper and firmly planned to go to the theater after lunch. (To be continued......)
