Chapter 731: Song of the Lonely Mountain
“......
Far over the misty mountains cold
Over the cold, misty mountains
To dungeons deep and caverns old
To the depths of the ancient cavern
e must aay 'ere break of day
We must set off before dawn
To find our long-forgotten gold
Go find the gold you've forgotten for a long time
The pines ere roaring on the height
The pine trees roared in the mountains
The inds ere moaning in the night
The cold wind groaned in the middle of the night
The fire as red it flaming spread
The flames were red and spread everywhere
The trees like torches blazed ith light
The branches are like torches that burn
......”
- Charlotte hums softly, but it's an episode from The Hobbit 1: An Unexpected Journey from his original plane, called "Misty mountains."
Among the six films in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and the "Hobbit" trilogy, there are two pieces of music that impressed Charlotte the most -
One is the theme song of "The Lord of the Rings 1", "May It Be" sung by Enya.
- It was a song that was so cold that it made people feel like ice water poured on it, and Charlotte had always loved it.
And the other song is this song "Misty mountains".
If Enya's "May It Be" exerts the coldness and penetration of female voices to the extreme, then this song "Misty mountains" focuses on the low and sad male voices.
- In the movie "The Hobbit 1: An Unexpected Journey", this song is sung by a group of dwarves led by the protagonist Thorin Oak Shield.
Their hometown of Lonely Mountain is overrun by the dragon Smauggo, leaving them wandering around.
Therefore, in this song, there is a sad taste.
However, Charlotte found it surprisingly good.
He even specifically checked that the lyrics of this song were Tolkien's original book.
When it came time for the filming of "The Hobbit", Peter Jackson found someone to arrange and compose the poem, which became this "Misty mountains" and another "The Song of the Lonely Mountain".
- The other song, which is longer and more faithful to Tolkien's original book, is used as the movie theme song for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
Still, Charlotte prefers the song "Misty mountains," which is used as an interlude in the movie.
He felt that this song, which began with a soft hum and could be sung, was very suitable for use as a lullaby before Ovilia went to bed.
- You know, because of her natural mana and her growth rate is faster than that of ordinary children, this little girl, who is not yet two years old, is already clamoring to listen to stories every night.
And Charlotte's latest bedtime story to her is "The Hobbit......
"However, this song is really good!"
After lulling Ovillia to sleep, Charlize said to Charlotte,
"It's obviously a little sad, but after listening to it, people can feel very peaceful. ”
"That's why I used it as a lullaby!"
Charlotte smiled,
"Then again, the original words of this song were originally written by Tolkien to his grandchildren as a bedtime story!"
"That's just as well. ”
Charlize shrugged,
"But why do I feel like I'm listening to a bard singing by a campfire in the wilderness every time I hear you sing this song?"
"It's like the song that adventurers sing when they get together in stories like Dragon Lance?"
"Yes. ”
Charlize nodded.
"That's right!"
Charlotte said with a smile,
"That's what I want!"
"So, you got someone to compose the song and let Peter Jackson add the song to the episode of The Lord of the Rings 1?"
Charlize felt that he understood a little,
"This is actually a test of the market, right? You don't want to make a film adaptation of The Hobbit right now, as a prequel to The Lord of the Rings series, do you!?"
“...... This, Sally, you're really thinking too much!"
Charlotte smiled wryly and shook her head,
"I really just thought it would be a good fit. ”
"Really?"
Charlize looked at Charlotte suspiciously, and the latter put on a very innocent expression,
"Sally, don't you believe me?"
"Of course I don't believe it!"
The South African girl nodded as a matter of course.
This made Charlotte a little dumbfounded, and he deliberately showed a sad expression,
"Sally, don't you love me anymore?"
"Loving you and believing in you are two different things!"
Charlize deliberately said with a stiff face, but in the end he couldn't help laughing,
"Who made this guy have always had a bad record in this regard?—— at least, not to mention feelings and life, movies and ghosts, how many times have you said you lied to me?"
"This ......"
Even if Charlotte had always been eloquent, she could only be silent at this time.
- Who made it so!
If she faces other people, Charlotte can still use words to say black and white, but in the face of the woman who she is with every night, this method is meaningless.
Fortunately, Charlize didn't chase after him.
After following Charlotte for so long, the girl naturally knows what this man is like.
- Charlotte may lie to her in various ways, but she will not be unfaithful to her, let alone harm her.
From this point of view, Charlize actually believes in Charlotte very much.
- Of course, this also has to do with the fact that she gets to know Charlotte better and better, and it is easier to see through the other party's scam.
In short, this sentence is just a joke.
In fact, Charlize knows the birth process of this song "Misty Mountains" very well.
In her opinion, this is just a flash of inspiration in the process of working with two directors, Charlotte and Peter Jackson.
As for Charlotte, as a producer, she asked Peter Jackson to add this song to "The Lord of the Rings 1", Charlize was puzzled, but after watching "The Lord of the Rings 1", she felt that it was indeed very suitable-
"Misty mountains" is hummed by the dwarven Golden Thunderbolt in an almost cappella fashion at night, before the Fellowship of the Ring enters the mines of Moria, and after the deep, melodious Aragorn joins in, the song has a great calming effect.
- It is the spirit of the members of the Fellowship of the Ring that is soothed, but also the spirit of the audience in the screening room.
It's about the rhythm of the story.
After all, before this, they had just experienced an avalanche caused by the wizard Saruman-
With the support of Charlotte and the Spectre studios, this version of Avalanche in The Lord of the Rings is much more powerful than the version in Charlotte's original plane.
It was a thrilling spectacle for the audience, but it was a test of life and death for the people of the Fellowship Squad.
After experiencing such a crisis, appropriate reassurance is necessary.
At the same time, this is also the principle of the film's rhythm control, which implies that they will go to the Moriath Mine later.
- Who made "Misty mountains" a song among the dwarves according to Tolkien's worldview?
- The first few sentences happen to be related to caves and gold...... (https:)
