Chapter 235: It's worth the ticket price!
Without further ado, I didn't want any popcorn and cola snacks, Yuan Xiangshi and Wanwei walked straight into the theater.
"Detective" sets the tone of the movie at the beginning, as well as shows the background color of the protagonist Matthews.
Matthews played by Huang Baiyou investigates the case by "becoming" the murderer and "becoming" the deceased, a double experience.
Hang a pig and stab a dead pig in the manner of a murderer, holding a dagger in his hand and stabbing it at a dead pig.
Or, curl yourself up in your suitcase and let the police officers under you push them down.
There is also a close-up shot, Matthews played by Huang Baiyou, covering his face in pain after stabbing the pig in the last second, as if he regretted killing someone, and dismembering the dead pig expressionlessly in the next second, the audience has an intuitive understanding of the protagonist in the first three minutes, it is a "crazy guy"!
"Why did he cut out his own ears and give them to his retired boss?" Wanwei asked.
"It may be an imitation of Van Gogh's cutting off his ears to reflect the unstable mental state of the protagonist Matthews." Yuan Xiangshi replied to his wife in a low voice.
"It's really crazy, it's completely a mentally unstable person, and Jiang Yubiao in the later period of the Thirteenth Lang of the South China Sea is also crazy, but the two are completely different." Wanwei whispered, crazy can perform so many different things, very powerful.
Yuan Xiangshi agreed, and Wanwei didn't say that Huang Baiyou is completely like a Xiangjiang actor.
It is always easy to distinguish between Hong Kong actors and mainland actors in a play, which may be the difference in the filming environment.
Huang Baiyou is perfectly integrated into the movie, and most of the audience in the theater are very satisfied with the prologue of the movie.
The plot of "Detective" is divided into two lines, the first line is that Matthews is considered to have mental problems because he cut off his ears and has been suspended at home for a long time, and the other line is that the policemen Gao Dong and Wang Shangzhu squatted in the middle of the night to guard the thief who stole the manhole cover.
As a result, the thief was chased into the woods, and the next day only Gao Dong walked out of the woods alone, and his colleague Wang Shangzhu disappeared, along with the police officers with guns.
In the days that followed, there were several armed robberies on the streets of Xiangjiang, two of which were fatal.
After comparing the bullet marks, it was determined that the firearm that fired the bullet was a matching gun from the missing police officer Wang Shangzhu.
He Ping'an was in charge of investigating the case, and after investigating for half a year, there were no clues at all, so he came to ask Detective Matthews to help.
The main line of the movie's plot began, and when He Ping'an asked Matthews to think, Huang Baiyou's non-physical performance blocked his non-existent wife, which also opened the audience's eyes.
Seriously, Huang Baiyou's acting skills feel like they are overflowing from the screen, and ordinary people are visible to the naked eye.
The audience could be heard faintly in the theater.
In the first line, in addition to showing Matthews' suspension, he also shows one of his abilities, "being able to see the dirt in people's hearts."
Therefore, when Matthews saw the suspect Gao Dong for the first time, Gao Dong was alone in the eyes of others, but he saw seven people in his eyes.
"Ju Xilei is really a genius when writing scripts, seven dirty things, referring to the seven deadly sins?" Wanwei sighed.
The screenwriter wrote well, the director shot well, and the combination of Wei Ju is amazing.
Matthews deliberately provoked Gao Dong in the toilet and was beaten on the head, and there is also a dark humor scene in this plot, because Gao Dong's embodiment of the dirty thing representing "lies" is played by the actress, so the actress stands and shushes......
"The investigation is completely desperate, and sooner or later he will kill himself." Wanwei whispered.
She is watching the plot, but Yuan Xiangshi next to her is watching the acting, and the focus of the two watching the movie is different.
Sometimes, however, the focus can also intersect.
Matthews, played by Huang Baiyou, used his finger as a gun and pointed it at the clerk, "Take out the money." ”
Matthews is imitating the robbers to commit crimes, and reacting all the processes of the robbers entering the store and shooting and killing. "Bang" Huang Baiyou also dubbed himself in his mouth, simulating the sound of gunshots.
"How does this work? Why can Huang Baiyou perform special abilities? Wanwei felt strange, "His interpretation made me believe that Matthews can really see through other people's hearts, and the movie is not assisted by special effects." ”
Many movies with superpowers with the protagonist, even if the special effects are full, the actors feel no different from ordinary people, and it is not impossible to watch...... It's just that Huang Baiyou how did he get this product?
As a first-class actor, Yuan Xiangshi immediately replied: "Because Huang Baiyou's performance is extraordinary and ordinary." ”
Extraordinary and ordinary, something tongue-twisting, Wanwei's eyes are expressing "Tell me human words".
"You didn't pay attention just now, the group actor who played the clerk was very dazed, I guess this kind of dazed is not acted, because Huang Baiyou just 'had no one in his eyes', from entering the store to simulating shooting, there was no real clerk in his eyes."
Yuan Xiangshi thought about it for a while and simplified what he had just said.
"A few more scenes were inserted in the post-edit, and we know that his eyes were 'looking' at the former clerk who was shot in front of him."
"It seems that it is true that the conversation with Gao Dong was more obvious before, and Huang Baiyou's gaze really always looked past Ning Jie and behind Ning Jie." Wan Wei recalled, when the words came to her lips, she didn't remember the name of the character, so she called the more familiar actor's name, "The eyes and reality are misaligned, this skill is not bad, it can be promoted." ”
Even though Wanwei has been an agent for more than ten years and has a clear understanding of the crew, she is not an actor after all, she thinks that this method is not highly technical and can be promoted...... But the corners of Yuan Xiangshi's mouth twitched when he heard this.
He may not be able to do it.
People have a knee-jerk reaction, just like there is a person standing in front of you, and it takes a certain amount of exercise to completely ignore it, not to mention achieving such an obvious visual effect as Huangbaiyou.
"The performance of this product is too solid, and it is also hard-working, Huang Baiyou has not gone through dozens or hundreds of training behind the scenes, I don't believe it." Yuan Xiangshi thought in his heart, and wanted to cough again, he covered his mouth and swallowed half of the voice back, which was quite uncomfortable.
But Huang Baiyou's performance ...... It's not in vain!
The plot enters a "honeymoon period", because Matthews investigates useful clues, and He Ping'an believes in this former detective even more.
Even in the restaurant, He Ping'an tried to greet his sister-in-law, who he couldn't see.
Xiang Baorui's acting skills are also completely OK, and when he greets Matthews' imaginary wife, he looks like he is talking to a ghost...... I hope that the other party will give feedback, but I am afraid that there will be feedback.
Audiences who are familiar with Ju Xilei's script know that his police and bandit-themed movies have no good ending, and the so-called "honeymoon period" is only the accumulation stage of the plot swooping downward.
In the next scene, Matthews and He Ping'an came to the grove where Wang Shangzhu disappeared.
Because Matthews "saw" that Wang Shangzhu was dead and wanted to track down the location of the body, he asked He Ping'an to bury himself alive and experience the victims.
He Ping'an wanted to experience a detective's way of solving the case, and proposed to bury himself alive.
His behavior also has foreshadowing in the front, He Ping'an admires Detective Matthews very much, and even the gun is Matthews's former gun.
As a result, the process of Matthews burying He Ping'an alive was the process of experiencing the murderer, and Matthews saw the clues again, so he directly followed the clues and left.
He Ping'an, who was buried alive, was obviously forgotten.
After struggling out, He Ping'an was almost buried alive, and he came to Matthewsi's house angrily and met Matthews's ex-wife.
The ex-wife explained that she and Matthews had divorced a long time ago, and the latter couldn't accept it and fantasized about a wife coming out, and said that Matthews was mentally ill and would not return to the clinic or take medicine.
This incident caused He Ping'an's trust in Matthews to suffer a heavy blow, and looking at the pills thrown by Matthews's ex-wife, it can even be said that his faith collapsed.
What followed was a scene that was enough to make Huang Bai You a god.
"Miss, shark fin."
"Steamed a grouper."
"Half a fried chicken."
"Add a bowl of white rice."
Matthews, played by Huang Baiyou, repeated Gao Dong's actions in the restaurant over and over again, from smoking cigars to how to eat, a total of five times, until he vomited out because he was too full.
"Okay!" Yuan Xiangshi couldn't help but applaud, but his voice was very low.
“?” Wanwei looked at her husband suspiciously, "Is the reason for the applause to be dedicated?" I ate so many things in a row for filming. ”
"You'll find out in a moment when you look at the tidbits." Yuan Xiangshi said.
Looking at the tidbits, do you understand how uncomfortable it is for the actors to eat so much? In fact, there is nothing to boast about with this money, not to mention that Yuan Xiangshi used to shoot horse riding scenes, and he continued to shoot after his waist was injured, isn't this more dedicated?
Anyway, Wanwei thinks her husband Yuan Xiangshi is better.
The follow-up plot of the movie took a sharp turn, Gao Dong noticed that someone was investigating himself and planted a trap, and He Ping'an, whose faith collapsed, threw himself into the net.
When Matthews met again, he saw something bad happening to He Ping'an.
It's another confrontation between two actors-
"Give me back the papers, give me back the gun." Xiang Baorui trembled and walked out of the darkness.
"Why? What happened? When Huang Bai lobbied why, the audience felt that he was "shorter" out of thin air.
Because of the promising juniors, there are also bad things in their hearts.
Matthews played by Huang Baiyou has always crossed the ontology and directly talked to the bad things in people's hearts, including stopping the little girl from stealing at the beginning of the movie.
But this time, Huang Baiyou's eyes were aimed at the ontological one, regretful and anxious eyes...... But Wei is very cruel, there is no He Ping'an played by Baorui in the camera, only the bad things in his heart.
"I was almost killed." He Ping'an cried, his voice trembling.
"Don't mess around! I told you a long time ago that the case had been solved. Huang Baiyou's words were also mixed with anxiety in the firm reprimand.
His gaze at He Ping'an was completely transmitted to the audience, "Hold on, don't be defeated by bad things."
"I was pinned to the ground and a gun was pointed at my head."
It's useless, it's useless, once something bad appears, Matthews' eyes and words can no longer touch the body.
Once there is something bad in the heart, He Ping'an is no longer the righteous policeman.
This scene is extremely rich in both the surface and the inner meaning.
Because it had to be reviewed, the film filmed two versions of the ending, the Cantonese version and the Chinese version.
And the ending of the former's gun change made the theater scene exclaim, Gao Dong and Matthews are dead, and He Ping'an, the only one alive, keeps changing guns and making up lies that are beneficial to him, and every adjustment means that his blackening has intensified.
The ending of the latter is not so dark, because He Ping'an is always a policeman who cannot be bad to the end.
Yuan Xiangshi and Wanwei watched the Cantonese version, and wanted to get up and applaud after watching it, but considering that this was a movie theater and not a film festival, they gave up this action.
I wrote another chapter before twelve o'clock, and I only wrote 3,000 words when I stayed up late with sleep reversed, and I was also convinced. This is yesterday's update, and writing another one is also a plus, not today.
