Chapter 456 The beginning that shocked foreigners

This time the European screening of "Saving Private Ryan" is indeed not just the first release, there are too many things behind this movie.

This also carries most of Li Chencan's hope.

This matter does have too much to do with him......

If "Saving Private Ryan" can't attract the attention of these people according to the plan and spread a lot of word-of-mouth back to China, it will be difficult to turn over in the Chinese market in the future...... But that road is really too risky, even if it succeeds, some bad impressions will remain, which is indeed extremely unfavorable to Li Chencan's development in the future.

The best way to do this is to be able to infect everyone at the Venice International Film Festival.

At half past six in the afternoon of September 15, Li Chencan came to the outside of the IMAX screening hall of the Venice International Film Festival very early, and the rumbling sound could be heard in the screening hall.

A Hollywood blockbuster is being screened inside, it is a superhero movie, because it has added a lot of dark wind to it, so it has also been sent to the Venice International Film Festival to screen and build momentum, hoping to bring more attention to everyone.

The Venice International Film Festival is one of the more tolerant film festivals in the world, and many CULT films have come back here to look for opportunities, which has been since 10 years...... At that time, the Venice International Film Festival actually awarded the Golden Lion Award that year to a Japanese CULT movie "Killer Shinichi".

Japanese cinema is one of the most unique films in the world, the kind of pursuit of beauty even to the point of perversion. There's always a lot of stuff in it.

"Killer Shinichi" is one such film, in which the protagonist is a man who grew up in a deformed family, and he is timid and introverted. But under the hypnosis of bad guys, he can become a killer...... And the methods are very cruel, not to kill well, but to always abuse and even torture and kill...... The scene was very bloody and miserable.

Anyway, the Japanese can come up with a torture method...... It was as dense as the stars.

After such a film won the Golden Lion Award, the tolerance of the Venice Film Festival skyrocketed instantly, and many cult movies like to come here to find opportunities.

Li Chencan waited outside for a while, waiting until seven and fifteen. The movie called Mysterion is finally over.

After all, there are only two IMAX3D screening halls at the Venice International Film Festival, and it is a pretty good thing to be able to show them in such a theater, but because there are too many movies on display. So there's hardly any time to catch your breath in between, and the next movie will officially start showing.

In other words, between Mysterion and Private Ryan, there is only fifteen minutes of free time to change the audience for different audiences.

Finally. The crowd of moviegoers of "Saving Private Ryan" was before 7:30. All of them went to the cinema, and basically no one was absent.

This group of moviegoers, made up of various film critics, film dealers, jury members, and real movie lovers who have passed the review, is now basically staring intently at the huge screen of IMAX.

Because the time is too tight, Li Chencan can't say anything, and the movie has officially begun.

Although the people present today are all different. People come from different walks of life, but everyone here. I have all watched "Infernal Affairs" and have some interest in Li Chencan, otherwise I would not have watched his new movie here.

As for Li Chencan's new movie, everyone also has different attitudes, but deep down, they finally have some small expectations.

"It's finally getting started...... I've been waiting for this young man's new film since "Infernal Affairs", and today it's finally here...... Since I'm talking about the scenes of World War II, I actually want to see if he can control this scene well and bring some surprises in the plot. ”

The presidents of the two juries are now talking in French.

"Right...... I'm also looking forward to his handling of this film...... However, his last movie is too different from this one...... I just hope he doesn't lose control. ”

…… This kind of discussion is still everywhere before the movie starts, and there are multiple languages in the movie theater, and these languages are being discussed.

After all, everyone comes to see this film for different purposes, the filmmakers come to see the film from a purely commercial point of view, they want to know if there is any possibility of the film being a hit, and as for the film critics, they are basically certified, they are curious and judge the attitude of the film to watch the movie......

But for Li Chencan's current situation, other opinions from film critics and important members of the jury are obviously more important, and the filmmakers ...... In fact, he doesn't think that this movie will not sell, but he is now in urgent need of critics' evaluation to spread the fame of the movie.

The screening on the 17th, to a large extent, whether it can bring many people depends on how the first premiere is today.

…… Film critics now have a more complicated attitude towards this movie, some of them are from various European countries, on the European side, although the film is far from China and the United States, but this is the birthplace of film culture, literary and artistic young people are everywhere, and their ability to evaluate movies is also very high.

These critics are now full of anticipation for "Saving Private Ryan", but they are also worried about disappointment...... In short, their emotions are complicated.

"Chencan, don't worry, we can succeed!"

Lu Weidong patted Li Chencan's arm and said comfortingly.

Li Chencan nodded, in fact, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart, but on the surface, he completely suppressed this nervousness.

Their location here is the second row of IMAX...... In fact, this location is rotten to home, although it is very feeling in the first few rows of the IMAX movie hall, the 3D screen effect and the like are also particularly shocking, and many scenes in the movie can also be directly hit by the eyeballs, but in the front rows, for some people who are easily dizzy, it can make him dizzy for a while, and the sky is full of flowers, and here he is generally accustomed to looking up, and because the screen is too large, generally speaking, the first four rows in the IMAX movie hall are down after watching a movie for several hours...... Basically, it feels like your neck is going to break.

In this position, Li Chencan and Lu Weidong they said Alexander...... But after all, this is the habitual position of the creators, and they have to sit in the front......

At this time, Li Chencan turned his head and glanced at the audience behind him, because of the sight problem, there were not many people he could see, and most of the people who could see were wearing 3D glasses on their faces, and he couldn't see their expressions, which made his heart heavy......

I hope the movie can still have that kind of shock to other people......

Because it is a movie screened in the screening hall, "Saving Private Ryan" did not have any pre-screening advertisements before, nor did it have the LOGO of the Film Bureau, but directly a LOGO of Li Chencan's personal studio appeared, and after that, the 160-minute movie officially began!

Everyone's attention is on the movie screen, no matter what kind of attitude they have towards the movie, but at least they are very concerned about the movie itself.

The opening scene is a Chinese flag waving in the wind, against the background of a blue sky. The yellow main side, the two blue lines representing the Yangtze River and the Yellow River are shaking in the wind at this time, and the Chinese flag is not very beautiful, even more so than the British and the like, but it has a simple beauty.

Later, the actor who played the elderly Li Ruien came to the martyr's cemetery, and these shots were beautifully created, after all, it was now a time of peace many years later.

These shots look a little bland, and even a little suspicious, aren't they World War II war films? How is it now interspersed with decades later?

But at this time, the old man was in tears, unable to support his trembling body, and half sat on the ground, and other people hurriedly came up to support him, and in the old man's black pupils, the memories of the past began to appear.

June 6, 1944.

On the big screen, the tide of Obaha Beach is rushing ashore in waves, making rhythmic sounds, and steel horses are arranged from far and near under the rendering of 3D cameras.

The colorful modern picture becomes gloomy here, and under the dark canopy, the tide seems to be black, and everything is unclear.

One by one, the landing craft began to storm the beach, still rendered in 3D with clear layers, and the soldiers inside were like sculptures under the night.

The camera shakes a bit, slightly shaking up and down, and the extreme rendering of the 3D out-of-screen effect makes people feel like they're also shaking, on top of the landing craft that rises and falls in the sea - in fact, the original movie here is the best, and the shaking feeling is really like making a documentary...... But it's a 3D movie...... If it shakes like the original...... A few shots can stun people.

But even so, the scene still made many people's mouths open in surprise, and they also felt empathy because of such a shaky lens.

"This is really realistic...... "Some people already feel the smell of it.

Close-up of Captain Kaiguo's shaking hand, then close-up of his face, the picture stretches and turns into a boatload of people, one of whom begins to vomit from excessive fear...... These details reveal the silence as dark as ink before the war, and the feeling of empathy is immersed in every inch of skin and every drop of bone marrow.

And then ...... The war has begun!

Mountains of corpses and a sea of blood, furious machine guns, bullets rushing into the eyeballs......

The cinema was instantly enveloped in that extreme shock.

"Oh my God!"

Similar exclamations rang out in a steady stream. (To be continued......)
