Chapter 329: Strength
"Twelve Citizens" is adapted from "Twelve Angry Men".
There are many versions based on "Twelve Angry Men".
Jiang Yang has seen it all.
He has even seen the Russian and Japanese versions, which are very exciting.
The reason why Jiang Yang is watching different versions with relish is because each version is based on the script of the original "Twelve Angry Men", and is localized according to local conditions, although it does not surpass the original version, but each has its own characteristics.
The original focused on justice, which was the cornerstone of the script.
Then, the Russian version is inclined to the shadow of war, ethnic hatred and oligarchy, which are national hatreds and family hatreds; The Japanese version focuses on reasoning and sensibility; As for the national version of "Twelve Citizens", it is also very exciting in terms of localization.
The story is about a university of political science and law, where students take final exams and set up a mock court to try a rich second generation who was raised by a rich man, and is accused of killing his alcoholic father's eucalyptus. A jury of twelve students' parents then decided on the eucalyptus, and according to the rules, the twelve jurors had to agree in order to end the trial.
These parents originally wanted to go over to the lake and agreed to go home directly, but No. 8 had a different opinion, he thought that the rich second generation was not guilty, so these twelve parents from different positions, different classes, and different regions started a quarrel.
Jiang Yang felt that the setting in this was quite in line with Han Xiao's online quarrel just now.
Twelve people have different positions, different prejudices, and different views.
The taxi driver whose son ran away from home and did not return insists that the rich second generation is guilty; The local natives who rented out houses felt that outsiders had made his son unsuccessful, so the regional black ones thought that the rich second generation was guilty; The old man who has been wronged during the special period is persuaded to support innocence; There are also young people who have been wrongfully imprisoned to support innocence; The school teacher pulled over to make up the numbers, and the commissary owner who had to come for business didn't care whether he was guilty or not; The one who sells insurance is a wall-to-wall grass, swaying -
There's also a security guard -
Jiang Yang remembered.
When he took the subway, he remembered the speed from the security guard's lines.
The security guard worked in the subway every day when it was still 2 yuan to run around, worked in the subway every day, took the subway to send it to other places after receiving the goods, and then did not leave the station, delivered the goods to the brothers outside, and then continued to do subway delivery.
He's been in the subway for over a year, so he knows everything about the subway speed, the length of the car, and so on.
In short, twelve people, around a table, based on their own identity and status, noisy and shouting in a room for a hundred minutes, people who can't stand it really can't stand it, and those who can watch it feel really wonderful.
Install the latest version. γ
Of course.
It looks like there's only one scene and the cost is low.
But this scene is not simple, and it especially tests the actors' lines and acting skills, because twelve people sit there and say that the lines are not good, and the personal performance is not in place, and the audience will scold the mother.
Therefore, in "Twelve Citizens", the actors are all drama actors, all of them are acting schools, and their lines and acting skills are explosive.
As a result, many people feel that when they watch the movie, they feel that there is a sense of drama.
It's not an exaggeration to think that this is a drama movie.
In addition, this movie also has a natural disadvantage, that is, because of the lack of a jury system in the country, it is just a virtual court, lacking the saber-rattling that really determines the life and death of a teenager.
If you care about this and have seen the original, this disadvantage will be magnified.
Butβ
There is no original version of this world.
As a Chinese, it is very reasonable for Jiang Yang to be based on localization first, and as a drama and film, it is also reasonable to put it in the theater first to perform - first hone and hone his acting skills, after all, twelve actors with acting skills are not easy to invite.
Besides, the box office of this movie is really not high.
As for other versions.
If someone really likes it, Jiang Yang will not be too late to write it out, maybe when the foreigner gets the American version of the script, he will sigh in Mandarin: ", Lao Tie's adaptation is really good." β
Jiang Yang is fun to think about.
Fun is fun, Jiang Yang returned to the computer, and when he wanted to write, he made a difficulty, remembering the story synopsis of a movie is very simple, but remembering the characters and lines, you have to dig into the memory.
After Han Xiaoxiao entered the office in Jiang Yang, the chair slid to Jiang Chen's side, "Hey, what is Director Jiang doing in the office?" β
"It's certainly not work."
Jiang Chen sat up straight and let Han Xiaoxiao look at his screen, "Hey, look at this." β
"What?"
Han Xiaoxiao probed over, Jiang Chen was watching Tui Tui, and was opening a video in which a band performed in the mourning hall, "I'll go, what's the difference between this and grave jumping?" She couldn't help but say.
Jiang Chen asked Han Xiaoxiao to put on headphones and listen to music again.
Han Xiaoxiao listened to it for a while, and looked disgusted: "What is this?" β
Originally, it was very strange to have drums and guitars in unison in the mourning hall, but I didn't expect it to be even weird when I heard this song, "It's too ugly." β
Then, she saw Jiang Yang appear in the camera and was putting a hawthorn pill in his mouth.
Han Xiaoxiao was stunned: "Why is Director Jiang here?" β
Jiang Chen: "You forgot?" Director Jiang went to the funeral in the morning, and this lead singer, do you think it's the third brother? β
"Good fellows."
Because this video was shot abnormally, Han Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes and looked carefully before she saw that it was the third brother they were filming "Underground Traffic Station", "Don't say it, the third brother put away Jia Gui's strength and put on a suit again, it's really a bit difficult to recognize." β
But once connectedβ
"It's right."
Han Xiaoxiao didn't know why, she felt that Captain Shengshi Meiyan Jia played this style of rock, and she had a lot of old brew to drink, she picked up the headphones and listened to it again, "It's not good, but I don't know why it's very good." β
Andβ
If you think about it this way, it is not a big deal to perform at a funeral, it can only show that the deceased is open-minded.
"Hey!"
Jiang Chen: "You are really double standard." β
When I met Director Jiang and the third brother, I didn't think it was strange, this is not a double standard.
This video was obviously taken with a mobile phone, which is not very stable, but it is still quite popular on the Internet, after all, the mourning hall sings rock and roll, which is quite chic, and then people also found out that the lead singer is Jia Gui, and the husband of the big demon king also appeared in the camera, which is even more popular.
The person who shot the video also deliberately gave Jiang Yang a few more shots.
There are many people who comment under the video, and some people can't accept it, deny, criticize and even scold.
Something a little nicer is: "This is sick, isn't it?" Performance art? Or is it really crazy? β
But there are also some, like Han Xiaoxiao, who feel that Captain Jia sings this bewitching rock, which is quite chemical.
"When I first listened to it, I also felt sick, but for the sake of my reverse traitor, the anti-Japanese male god Captain Jia, I listened to it a few more times, hey, it's really good."
"All this thing can listen to is sick! Well, I'm sick. β
"I'm probably sick too."
"Damn, I'm addicted to it, is it too late to go to a mental hospital?"
"I, too, probably. I don't know why one of my high school girls is addicted to this. β
"Isn't it to see handsome guys?"
"Why do I feel so energetic, so free, the funeral host must be cool."
"One thing to say, I really don't think Captain Jia's music is out of harmony at the funeral, don't you think it's particularly like a dancing god? There is also the charm of Taoist chanting, really, change the words, and use them as mantras. β
"Captain Jia fills the gap in the funeral industry of rock and roll in my country!"
Han Xiaoxiao looked at the comment, a little dumbfounded.
"This group of fans is probably really sick."
It's the first time Han Xiaoxiao has seen it, when listening to the song, others scolded him for being sick, and the people who listened to the song really felt that he was sick. If this is replaced by other fans, and no one else is used, just a fan of the Great Demon King, if someone dares to say this, he will be scared of the air, who is like this group of people who listen to songs, they really feel sick.
