The subtitle of this chapter: The Mouth Cannon of Literary Fans

It's not that our Master Yuan looks down on the appreciation level of the people in the 21st century, but he dares to say that a movie like "The Party Fights Differences" will not be able to recover the cost in the film market a hundred years later. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The idea of this film is very grand and lofty, in short, it is the opposition between good and evil in complex human nature. Human beings use the truth and conscience of human nature to fight against the cruelty and hypocrisy that also come from human nature.

To express this theme, David Griffith edited together four passages of four stories: the modern chapter "Mother and Law", the Jewish chapter "The Passion of Christ", the medieval French chapter "The Massacre of St. Bartholomew (note 1)", and the ancient chapter "The Fall of Babylon", which are very far apart in time and space, and used the technique of "alternating montage" to make the four stories alternate.

The parallel unfolding of the four storylines creates a strong sense of urgency, which eventually converges into a rushing stream of emotions...... poured the audience into a heart-chilling one!

Let's review Comrade Qu Yuan's "Chu Ci", "Yangchun White Snow" is good, but the author can't eat enough. "Lower Riba Man" is forced to be low, an Iphone7 in January.

After Griffiths used this film to make the investors miserable, he and Chaplin and others set up Lianyi in the eight major studios, but they still made one and lost the other, so that his partners were reluctant to invest in his films.

So the big director who had a bad career went to New York with his female disciples to look for investors. It's a pity that today's Wall Street bankers can't watch movies, Griffith, who has eaten countless closed-door soups, finally got an invitation to the masquerade ball held by the Baker family, and wanted to take this opportunity to have a relationship with Mr. George Baker, but he didn't expect to be cheaper than Yuan Yanqian.

Our Master Yuan casually asked, "David, in addition to the director, you are also a screenwriter, right?" ”

Griffith nodded and said, "Yes." ”

In fact, his original dream was to become a playwright, but unfortunately he couldn't eat enough to be a stage playwright. In desperation, he reluctantly joined Edison's Company as a film screenwriter in 1908. However, because there were too few actors, he was dragged to act again......

Hey, a hundred years later, those little actors all over the world will have the opportunity to act, not to mention that Sino-Soviet relations are Sino-Chinese relations or Soviet-Soviet relations or Sino-Sino-Soviet relations or Soviet-Soviet-Chinese or ...... Regardless of the relationship between N and N Su, it is willing. But in the 1920s, someone was forced to be an actor because they couldn't eat.

Later, he moved to Biograph-Company. Once the director of the movie he starred in fell ill, and the boss forced him to change from an actor to a director. But even after becoming a successful director, David Griffith still has a soft spot for screenwriting, and the aforementioned "The Party Fights Different" with a very complex plot came from him.

"Smack!"

Yuan Yanqian slapped his face violently and said, "David, here's the problem!" ”

"This ......" Mr. Da Director, who has lost some confidence by a series of failures in recent years, did not refute it, but humbly asked for advice, "Please say." ”

Heck, instilling one's own views on movies in the film masters, this is really too much of an appetite for our master Yuan. Of course, brainwashing literary and artistic people should also be a little more literary and artistic.

Our Master Yuan spat out a smoke ring and said, "If we trace the origin of film art, it must be painting and sculpture. The reason for these two is what I call Aunt Muno...... Well, the Complexe-of-Mummy. The ancients believed that our corpses, sculptures, and portraits carried a part of our souls, which is one of the origins of various witchcraft and religions around the world. ”

He pointed to the ancient Egyptian costumes on the great directors and actresses, and continued: "For example, the ancient Egyptians believed in the religion of life and death, and they believed that if the body did not decay, life would last forever, so so many mummies were made. And this religion caters to the most basic psychological requirements of human beings: to fight against time, and even to overcome time! ”

Yuan Yanqian sighed very regretfully and said, "Alas, but with the evolution of art and civilization, we realize that there is no identity between human beings themselves and these statues. But if one does not see in our blind admiration for painting and sculpture the primordial need of form to overcome the passage of time, then ......"

"Sasava Thin Stockings ......"

After he finished showing off a sentence of French, he looked at the three confused expressions next to him, shook his head slightly, and said lightly: "This is Pascal, a French scholar in the seventeenth century...... As Pascal on the barometer said, painting becomes a vain. ”

After our Master Yuan said this, not to mention Mr. Griffith, who came out to be a reporter at the age of 17, Miss Ji Xu, who acted on stage since he was a child in order to support his family, and even Mr. Baker, a master's student in the Department of Political Economy at NYU, were all convinced, and the faces of the three of them showed unclear expressions at the same time!

It's just two stinky men, and their faces Yuan Yanqian doesn't like to look at them. However, there was a layer of mist in Miss Tart's beautiful eyes, and the white onion dripping gaze made him ...... You know.

The ancient Greeks told us that philosophy is to love wisdom, and with wisdom you can crush others with your intelligence. I have to say that the compatriots of "Helen of Sparta" are really sincere.

Because you know, Yuan Yanqian had to adjust her sitting posture and calm her mind for a while, and then said: "The progress of science and technology has brought us a new art form of film, but we must realize that compared to painting and sculpture, film is completely different. ”

"Images capture fragments of the events of this world, freeing them from their original fate that has passed with time, only to record them not with artistic magic, but with an indifferent mechanical effect. Cinema is not about creating eternity, but about spice up the events and keep them safe from the ravages of time, just as the mummies made by the ancient Egyptians. ”

"The objectivity of the image itself has a convincing power that no painting or sculpture can match, but at the same time, the artist who makes the image loses the opportunity for the painter and sculptor to express a strong personality in his work! So ......"

Yuan Yanqian looked at Mr. Director very seriously and asked, "Mr. David Griffith, do-you-understand?" ”

Griffith nodded with a look of realization, then shook his head thoughtfully.

Our Master Yuan nodded secretly in his heart, he is worthy of being a genius film master, and he is really teachable.

Note 1: The Massacre of Saint-Bartholomew, also known as Saint-Bartholomew's-Day, took place in 1572, when French Catholics brutally suppressed the Huguenots.

It is said that all the bells of Paris rang at the same time on that day, which was the code for the start of the massacre. The atrocities lasted three days and three nights. The massacre continued, and what had been committed in Paris spread to other French cities.
