The beginning story of the movie has certain changes to the original Vayne's setting script.

In the original setting, after Wayne witnessed her parents being killed by demons, there was actually a paragraph behind it. Why did Wayne tell the people in the village that there were demons, and hired mercenaries to hunt down the demons, but it didn't work, for example, she heard that there was a famous witcher Frey in Freljord in the north, and then went north to find someone......

But these contents, in the script creation stage, were drastically abridged by Fan Zhe.

There are two main reasons: Vayne was still present when he witnessed the demon kill his parents. According to the original setting, the demon just smiled wickedly when he saw the young girl Wayne, and then left.

This is actually very strange: why would a demon who would run to slaughter people inexplicably let a little girl go after seeing her?

If you set up this kind of thing, there are few people who see it, and the degree of discussion is not high, so if there is such a problem that people can't figure out, it can get by; If it is placed in a movie, I am afraid that it will not be complained to death, and it will greatly affect the audience's sense of substitution when watching the movie.

Even if there are other explanations later, the audience won't care about it, and they will start to spray directly if they are unhappy.

The second point is more important.

From the death of Wayne's parents to the time she finds Frey, this part of the story is too inkblotted to be too slow if the film doesn't take this aspect a step further.

This is intolerable.

Therefore, Fan Zhe is still quite bold in adapting in this regard.

The rest of the story enters the relationship between Wayne and Frey.

Eva. Green's portrayal of the hunter from Freljord is a very important character in this film. She plays a mentor-type role in the early and middle stages of the film.

In this movie, she plays a role as a link between the previous and the next. She will be Vayne's life mentor, teaching her to become a demon hunter and shaping her life with a huge influence.

The rest of the movie tells the story of Frey taking Wayne from her family's farm to a nearby village and town, and then preparing to leave.

But Wayne, who has come to her senses, is already full of anger in her heart, and she only wants revenge.

She begged Frey to take her.

At first, Frey refuses, but here she also begins to show the character of Wayne as the protagonist, who always follows Fu Lei and walks in the wilderness. No matter how hard it is, I always follow it.

But Frey wasn't so easily impressed.

A little annoyed by Wayne's following, Frey made a condition: she wanted to see Wayne's guts.

Frey took Wayne with her all the way north from Demacia to Freljord.

Frey is on a mission to hunt down an ice troll that is wreaking havoc on the border between Freljord and Demacia.

To lure this monster out, you need a decoy. The one who plays this role is naturally Wayne.

Seeing Vane's hesitant look, Frey smiled slightly.

At this moment, the scene flashes back, and the plot of the film shifts to begin telling the story about Frey. Here, there is not much ink in the movie, and it is only about half a minute of footage, through a few flashbacks, explaining that Frey's relatives were also killed by demons. It was also her chance to embark on such a path as a witcher.

Frey didn't really want to carry such a drag bottle, but that was only one of the reasons. The more important place is reflected in the conversation between Frey and Wayne.

When Frey saw that Wayne was a little hesitant and didn't directly agree to be bait, she said: "That's good, after a while, I'll send you back to Demacia, forget about these things, forget about the pain, and live your life well." Hatred and pain may be deeper than anything else for you now, but time is the best antidote. After three, five, ten, twenty years, you will slowly forget about it......"

"I'll go." The girl Wayne interrupted Frey's tirade with just two words.

These words may be a reflection of Frey's own life. She used to be a person who only lived in revenge and hatred, but apparently she now has her own reflections on the state she once was.

But, obviously, no matter how sincere Frey's words were, young Vayne couldn't have listened.

"What did you say?" Frey froze.

"I said I'd go." Wayne's face was firm as he said this.

"Do you know what you mean by that?"

"I know, there's a chance I'm going to die......"

"It's not possible, it's that you're going to die." Frey said, "The Ice Troll, this kind of monster, even if I don't have to drag it down, I can't defeat it with complete certainty. If you do lure the ice trolls out, then you're dead. Even if you don't die on the spot, I will never protect you in the later battles, you won't survive. ”

"Then let me die." Wayne said, "If I could trade my life for a monster, it would be worth it." ”

"And...... This is my only chance for revenge. ”

Frey was silent for a moment, then said, "Well, then, I'm missing a bait. It's easier for a young human girl to get that monster out than if I were to go find a sheep. ”

With that, she strode forward, and Wayne hurriedly followed.

After walking a few steps, Frey stopped again: "If you can survive this time, I will consider teaching you something." ”

Wayne's eyes lit up: "A word is a certainty!" ”

……

The first part of the movie passed like this, but the follow-up transition still didn't waste pen and ink.

In the next scene, the story enters a tundra zone. This is a high-looking aerial shot, on a tundra, two figures like two black dots, walking slowly, and in the distance, the scene is a majestic snow-capped mountain.

Apparently, they had left Demacia and entered the lands of Freljord, located in the north.

This country, located at the northern tip of the Valoran continent, is most famous for its ice and snow.

It is said to be a country, but in fact, it is a country that has not yet been unified. It was once unified, and the powerful Freljord Empire once dominated the whole world at the same time as Shurima, one north and one south.

Of course, that's all in the past now. The mighty Shurima, and the legend of the Ascended, have been buried in the sands of the southern tip of the world; The Freeljod Empire, which was once in the limelight, has now been torn apart, and has become a land where many small tribes conquer each other and people struggle to survive.

Many Chinese people can actually recognize that the filming location of Freljord should be Tibet, China. There are a lot of Tibet-like shadows here, but of course, it looks plausible, mainly because of the large number of special effects.

After dark, two simple tents were erected on the leeward side of a boulder, and a bonfire was lit in the middle, and the two were huddled around it to keep warm.

At this time, Wayne's costume has changed. She no longer wore the dress of a rich lady in Demacia, and became more pragmatic. The exposed lining seen from the neckline is still cotton, but the outside has been put on a heavy windproof leather jacket with a lot of hair on it. A spotted fur cloak stripped from an unknown animal was placed on her body.

"Are we almost there?"

"Well, we'll be there tomorrow, and that monster is moving around here." Frey said, "I'll set the trap tomorrow, and then I'll need some of your blood, that monster who doesn't know where to hide has a smart nose, and he'll find you with the smell." ”

"It's cunning, it may not show up for days, but I'm sure it won't be able to resist your temptation."

"I won't have any contact with you for a few days. I'll give you plenty of water and food, and ambush nearby. And as long as that monster appears, your job is to lure it into the trap, understand? ”

Wayne held a wooden cup in his hand and drank steaming water as he said, "I see." ”

Frey continued: "You're light, you can run straight through the trap, it's heavy, so it's going to hit it. Then, you can run, don't look back, and run as far as possible. When I kill this monster, I'll go find you. ”

"What if you die?"

Frey laughed, "You should worry about how you will survive tomorrow until I show up." ”

……

After dawn, the story continues.

Frey had already designed the trap and slit Vayne's wrist and took the entire bowl of blood. In this process, Eva Green's performance is in place, as a seasoned witcher who was once only bent on revenge, she did not show a little intolerance and pity, and seemed very cold and even ruthless.

Holding a bowl full of steaming blood, Frey took a deep breath, her face tinged with some intoxication and even some greed.

"What a wonderful taste, even I might not be able to bear it, let alone that bloodthirsty monster."

As she spoke, Wayne, the girl who was holding her wrist, was very pale from blood loss. "When will it start?" she asked. ”

"Don't rush." Frey put her hand into the bowl and fished out some blood from her palm, smearing it on Wayne's body, "This blood, guaranteed to fill you with flavor, can make it easy for that monster to find you." The rest of the blood, I'll spill it in some of the nearby places where it frequents. ”

"Okay."

"Wait patiently." "Maybe in an hour, it will find you." But it is cunning and does not do it right away, but chooses to observe for a while. This period can be short, it can be long, and it can last for days. During this time, you don't freeze to death, a corpse that can't run can't lead monsters into traps. ”

"Okay." Wayne seemed to be the only one word she could say.

Frey gave her another rucksack: "It's food and water, enough to feed you for days." You won't be able to see me during this time, but I'll keep an eye on you. If you choose to give up, lift up your blood-stained garment and shake it, and I will show up and send you back to Demacia. ”

"I'm not going to give up."

"I wish you had given up."

……

Next, the movie spent a lot of time showing the lonely Wayne in the cold night of the icy tundra.

Blood, cold, darkness...... These infinitely magnify her loneliness.

Next, there is a personal monologue of hers. In this paragraph, it shows the fear and pain of Wayne, a young girl who has been living in pampering in the past, in the face of great changes. But it is precisely because of these painful foils that her choice to be the bait for hunting monsters has become more powerful.

It's a complete one-man show, with only Wayne moving in the scene — and, of course, the wind.

However, Una still gave a very superb performance.

She showed Wayne's inner strength through her performance.

It's not special effects, it's not something that the system can handle, it's the actor's own ability.

And this kind of thing, shown to the audience, the most direct effect is that it can make the audience empathize with it and deeply bring it into the mood of the movie.

Fan Zhe was also at the scene, even though he had watched the finished film several times, he still couldn't help but applaud it.

He turned his head and observed the reaction of the audience, and he was very satisfied with the results.

No one talks to each other, no one is distracted, and everyone's attention is deeply attracted by the content on the big screen.

That's enough.

……

For the audience, it's just a few minutes of watching the movie, but in the movie, Wayne has already spent four difficult cold nights.

Her pain was intuitively displayed in front of the audience.

Heavy blood loss, cold food, poor environment, lack of sleep ...... These are not easy for a little girl to bear. No matter how determined she was, she couldn't hold on for a while, and even thought about waving her clothes and calling for Frey to end this pain.

However, she resisted in the end.

"Freezing to death, starving to death, I will also persevere!"

The power brought by the thought of revenge is so powerful.

At the end of the fourth cold night, the sky was overcast.

Wayne, who had been holding out for a long time, dozed off.

During these five days and four nights, she slept very little.

However, it was at this moment that she heard a sound of heavy footsteps.

Confused eyes, looking into the distance. Before dawn, in the dim scene, a vague but huge black shadow could be seen in the distance, walking step by step.
