After that, there was nothing particularly prominent, and it has been two and a half days, and most of the media have asked questions, and they have watched the movie, and they have also answered the questions about where the movie is.

So the whole process went smoothly and the feedback from the audience was very good.

In the final session, the main creators of the crew also signed autographs with the audience for 20 minutes to thank them for coming to support the film.

However, in the process of signing and taking photos, Leonardo encountered groping hands from female fans, and there was more than one, which annoyed Leonardo. Not only Leonardo, but also someone touched his ass, the last time I came to Venice, this didn't happen, why did the female fans do it this time?

In the end, the twenty-minute autograph and group photo were completed, and the crew fled in embarrassment, unable to stand these bold female fans.

This premiere also had a great impact, and reporters from all over the world sent out news to various media that night, and film critics from all walks of life quickly wrote film review articles and published them in relevant personal spaces and websites.

On the whole, everyone's evaluation is relatively positive, and there are criticisms, but they are relatively objective.

"He Fang and Leonardo's new film Venice Premiere": "He Fang and Leonardo and other main creators fiercely criticized the medical darkness in the United States this time, Leonardo's thin paper man and large-scale performance broke through his bottleneck, and the most eye-catching is Jared Leto, who played a tragic homopathy, and finally ended with death......"

"The premiere of the Venice Film Festival's most anticipated film [Dallas Buyers Club] ends": "The film is based on the new experience of the real character Ron Woodruff, and this film that has been unfinished for 20 years shines in the hands of whom, the story is smooth and exciting, the criticism is sharp, and the wonderful performances of Leonardo and other actors give the film more soul." Overall, the quality of the movie is quite high, and it is a rare good film......"

"[Dallas Buyers Club] is going to be a classic": "When we talk about movies, we often talk about some so-called classic movies, but what is a classic movie? It means that a certain film is the best of the best in a certain genre, a certain expression, a certain performance, or a certain theme, so the movie becomes a classic. And "Dallas Buyers Club" will become a classic in the future, because it shows the theme of surviving in a terminal illness and the spirit will become a leader, and the performances of many actors represented by Leonardo in the film will become a leader......"

"Leonardo finally has a breakthrough": ""Dallas Buyers Club" may really be able to fulfill Leonardo's dream of being an actor, and Leonardo ...... in this film"

"He Fang is the absolute director who trains the most powerful actors": "In addition to criticizing the American medical system in "Dallas Buyers Club", the most talked-about thing is the performance of Leonardo and Jared Leto, these two actors seem to have changed immediately when they get to the hands of He, the whole performance style has changed greatly, and it is ......"

"This is a failed Venice International Film Festival": "This year's film festival is really a failure, first of all, the opening ceremony made a mess, but this is not the biggest mistake, the biggest mistake is to invite pseudo-literary films like "Dallas Buyers Club" to be shortlisted, and it has become the biggest award favorite. "Dallas Buyers Club" is useless except for the so-called criticism of the US Drug Administration, and it is 108,000 miles away from literary films.

It does not have the lens language of literary films, the documentary presentation of literary films, nor the strong authorial color, nor the performances of de-performative characters. How can such a movie be called a literary film? This can't be compared to the eight-pole literary movie.

This is a pseudo-literary film, and it is a blasphemy against literary films and an insult to literary filmmakers to let such a film be mixed with the Venice Film Festival, which is one of the three sacred film festivals......"

"He Fang has lost the spirituality of literary films": "He Fang, who has been making commercial films for a long time, no longer has the spirituality of literary films, this is not a literary film, there is no author's expression of the director at all, and even the script is not written by He Fang. And the production in all aspects is very commercial, this is just a model film produced to hit the Oscars, and it should not participate in the Venice ......"

"Chinese director He Fang's new film shines in Venice": "The new film "Dallas Buyers Club" by Chinese director He Fang and world-famous movie star Leonardo premiered at the Sala Palace in Venice on the evening of August 29, local time, and was favored by more than 300 media and hundreds of film critics and filmmakers from all over the world......

……

The criticism that "Dallas Buyers Club" is not literary enough is basically a consensus in the literary filmmaker circle, and they all agree that this is a good Oscar-style literary film, which is fundamentally different from the literary films of the three major film festivals.

So when Nuel Bourdo, one of the editors of the "Film Handbook", interviewed He Fang for the third time, he asked He Fang: "What do you think of this, in the eyes of many literary filmmakers, "Dallas Buyers Club" cannot be regarded as a strictly literary film? ”

He Fang just smiled slightly: "If you strictly follow the standards of director F. Truffaut, I don't deny their opinion, in fact, since director Alexander Astrück first proposed that 'cinema has become a tool with a unique language and can freely express thoughts and emotions', there has been a huge debate in the film industry about how to use cinema to express itself.

Finally, under the perfection of directors such as Truffaut, the concept of the author's film was formed, and a new wave of cinema was born under the repeated refinement of many editors of the "Film Handbook". This was a great thing, and later literary films integrated the relevant characteristics of Italian neorealism to form the concept of later literary films, and became the standard for the jury of the three major film festivals.

Over the years, however, director Alexander Astriuk, a pioneer of auteur cinema, has become more and more distorted in his assertion that cinema is merely a tool for expressing thoughts and emotions. Since movies are just tools to express thoughts and emotions, is it possible to let more audiences get the creator's thoughts and emotions expressed in movies?

However, many of the current literary films have made more and more audiences unable to understand the expression of the creator's thoughts and emotions, but they are addicted to long shots, mobile photography, voice-overs, inner monologues, natural sound, the use of non-professional actors to negate the principle of stardom, documentary style, de-dramatized narrative processing, loose plots, open-ended endings, criticism of society, etc.

The more this is the case, the more obscure the literary film becomes, and then what about the expression of thoughts and emotions? Where is it? How many viewers got it? How many truly great literary films are there now? Van Gogh's paintings are great, but Van Gogh cannot negate the achievements of most realist painters.

Although commercial literary films are easy to criticize, I think this is also a direction of exploration. When our thoughts and emotions can be understood and empathized with by a wider audience, do we also achieve the role advocated by director Alexander Astrük, that 'cinema has become a tool with a unique language and the freedom to express thoughts and emotions'?

I accept everyone's criticism, but I don't admit that if you don't make a film according to the technical indicators of literary films, it is not a literary film, I am also an exploration of film art, and the three film festivals are not encouraging authors to explore new forms? I'll have to give it a try, too. ”

In fact, who is this quibbling, as a veteran literary film critic, can Nuel Bourdo not know where the trick is? He didn't know how many people he had similar thoughts about.

"Hmm, do you think literary films need to be reformed? Have you had any ideas? Nuel Buldo did not debunk where, but rather expressed what he meant.

Maybe he also knows that literary films need to change? So he simply saw what whimsy this youngest and most talented director would have?

He Fang glanced at Nuel Bourdo in surprise, and Bourdo motioned for him to smoke a cigarette and think about it.

He Fang smiled, this is not a stubborn person, not the kind of person who sticks to art and opposes all different opinions.

He Fang lit a cigarette, took two deep puffs, and thought about it.

"Actually, I've been thinking about one thing, that is, what is the essence of literary films? Why put so many shackles on literary films? Thoughts and emotions should not be shackled, they are free.

Don't you know that the more shackles you wear, the less room there is for film expression? Shouldn't literary films just express thoughts and emotions through movies? At most, add one article to explore and explore the thoughts and emotions of the essence of the world, which should be the form of a new literary film. ”

He Fang's words are nonsense, but he has to say something.

"Shackles? You say that our current literary films are wearing too many shackles? For example? Which shackles? Nuel Bourdo seemed to have caught something in the words, and asked.

He Fang took a puff of cigarette and immediately said.

"Of course it's the shackles of technology, didn't I just list them? Long shots, moving photography, voice-overs, inner monologues, nature sound, the use of non-professional actors negating the principles of stardom, documentary, de-dramatized narrative treatment, loose plots, open-ended endings, criticism of society, etc., these are all shackles.

Isn't the West pursuing neoliberalism? What is neoliberalism? That is, there must be things that hinder the development of the market that are not free enough, so we must remove these things that hinder the free development.

And the same is true of film, since film is a tool for the expression of thoughts and emotions, all obstacles that hinder the expression of thoughts and emotions must be removed. So, why do you put so many restrictions on literary films? There is no limit to commercial films, it only has one criterion, and that is how to make money at the box office, so this kind of free stuff has been welcomed by the market.

On the contrary, literary films cannot develop because they are not free and there are too many restrictions. Therefore, we need to give freedom to literature and art, remove layers of shackles, and let film return to the principle of true 'tools for the expression of thoughts and emotions'.

Why are Picasso's paintings so popular? Because his paintings break the limits, break the boundaries, and make the brush more free. Why do you have to pay attention to the proportion and coordination of facial features when painting characters? Is it okay if it's not coordinated? Is it okay to abstract the figures?

Obviously, this kind of boundary-pushing painting was very popular in an era of restriction and restriction, because Picasso's freedom and abstraction opened up the confines of people's thoughts. In the same way, our films have developed to this day, we have many genres and classic movies, but our films have boundaries, and the form is becoming more and more solidified.

What is the future of cinema? What is the new form of expression in cinema? I think that just like Picasso's brush, we must remove the shackles, break the boundaries, and usher in a new free expression of thoughts and emotions. ”

The more He Fang spoke, the more excited he became, because he originally just wanted to talk nonsense, but when he found that the more he spoke, the clearer his ideas became, and it seemed that a new set of ideas had been formed, and he was simply shocked by his own ideas.

"Well, and then what?" Nuel Bourdo asked excitedly, feeling that he had a great conversation today that would change the entire dialogue of cinematic history.

Therefore, he was very excited, and he was also afraid of interrupting He's train of thought.

"And then?" He Fang was confused and thought about it.

"I don't know, I just know what I need to break, and then I haven't thought about it yet. So, this has to be tried, and "Dallas Buyers Club" is one of them. And this kind of attempt cannot put on all kinds of shackles, this kind of attempt is to explore one by one in commercial films, literary films, cult films, and documentaries.

Because no one knows what form it should take until now, I just imagined, thought, and didn't even have a direction. ”

He Fang shook his head.

Nuel Buldo shook He Fang's hand excitedly, "I believe that you will find the direction, and one day you will be able to come up with the concept and guidelines of this new literary film, if you need any research resources, or need someone to assist in research, you can ask me." ”

“？？？” He Fang looked confused, big brother, I just want to find an excuse to talk nonsense, and then get rid of the criticism of me in the literary and artistic circles. Do you want to be so serious?

"Ahem, that, that, okay, I'll definitely trouble you if I need to." He Fang had no choice but to follow Nuel Burdo's words, and talk about it later.

"So can we go into the details of what you're exploring in all aspects of Dallas Buyers' Club? For example, how did you explore performance techniques? Why did Leonardo and Jared change so much when they performed in your hands? Do you think acting should tend to be the simplicity of non-professional actors or a breakthrough in professionalism......"
