Best Actor Wants To Stay With Me Chapter 1735: Spotlight (1)
There are some very talented directors who start shooting with their own artistic style. But Bo Yan is different. Although he hopes to be more artistic, but now the company is in the initial stage: it needs money.
There are so many fantastic ideas in his head that he can't take pictures at this time. The best thing is to get a better script, just follow the script, and tell the story honestly and explain it.
Ideology, artistry, and whether it can be passed down through the ages are all important. But at this moment, bread is more important. If he shoots exactly according to the ideas in his mind, the public may not accept it. Even if he wins the prize in the end, but the box office loses, the company will lose money.
But he certainly wasn't reconciled to just making a "documentary" about cats and tigers. The original work of "Sunrise" is actually a bit low, the heroine who has fallen and can't turn back, a society that is rotten and irredeemable, some people who shouldn't have died miserably, those with conscience have no strength to change, and those without conscience are still doing it The last revelry.
A story like this is not as **** as "Thunderstorm", nor as crazy as "The Wilderness". It's better to be a literary film. If you want to move closer to a commercial film, you can only slightly modify the character settings, and some conflicts have to be set a little more violently. Especially when it is released on Valentine's Day, it must be a tribute to feelings.
In addition to making certain changes to the character of the protagonist, he also uses the mirror movement, which uses light and shade, color, flowers, and clothing to create a different mood for the protagonist, which is intense, lazy, desperate and mocking. He never explained the time on TV, except for the bell, the broadcast on the radio, and the alternation of light and shadow. Do not write any explanatory things, and present them in the language of the lens.
These details may not be realized by the first-time viewers, but they can subtly feel that time is advancing and the protagonist's mood is changing.
However, most of the re-seats were senior industry insiders, journalists with tricky angles, and some movie enthusiasts. Their grasp of mirror movement, light and shade, color, and light and shadow should be stronger than that of the general audience. But even without realizing these tactics, the film quietly tells an easy-to-understand story.
He stood on the stage and asked everyone to ask: "Is there any problem, everyone can express their opinions."
As soon as he finished speaking, he paused again, and smiled: "I know, many screening venues have invited everyone to come, not to let you give opinions. It is to let you say nice things, go back and write a few. A better review to attract the audience. Even if the filming is bad, try to let everyone praise the flowers. In fact, standing here, I probably know what everyone will say. If you have any talent or ideas, take a look You know the movie. This is my first time filming, so don’t ask for anything fancy. Just tell the story in its original form and tell it logically. For the rest, please give your opinion.”
At the scene, there was a slight pause for a few seconds, and then applause broke out.
How to say, there is one thing, whether it looks good or not, the audience has eyes and can see clearly. How much thought the director put into it, whether it was a scam or made with heart, and how the actors were, can be seen at a glance.
This is a very complete work. The script is based on Mr. Cao's original work. The characters have been changed but not significantly changed, and the tone is still there. The story is also a good story, unlike some great directors who want to play some stream of consciousness, and tell you from the very beginning that he is telling you a story, and details can flow from the story.
I saw it for the first time, but it was a reunion after a long absence. But after watching it and thinking about it again, I can feel the taste of whatever scene I think of in it. In particular, with the addition of easter eggs, the original mortal heroine seems to have the possibility of surviving in a desperate situation.
After Bo Yan said those words, the following discussion became heated. For example, he was asked: "Why do you want to modify the character design?"
Although he also admitted that after changing the relationship between the male and female protagonists to be more profound and pure, it is true that love has a heavier weight and is more eye-catching. When the two finally separate, it is also more eye-catching.
Bo Yan replied: "It's just a little artistic creation. If you copy the original book word by word, it's no different from watching a play."
Some people criticize him for being low-minded. Although there are original plots, it is love after all, which seems to be low-key. Although the movement of the mirror is innovative, there is no particularly impressive thought in the whole film. In other words, those thoughts belonged to Cao Yu, the original book, not his.
Bo Yanxiao: "I definitely can't compare with Mr. Cao. I admit that I have increased the love scene and made some changes for commercial reasons. I hope it won't take away the original tone."
Some people have pointed out some inappropriate rhythms in his story. Although a little modification has been made, the rhythm of the first half hour is a little long. After all, it was adapted from a drama.
Bo Yan nodded humbly: "Indeed, I also need to strengthen the sense of rhythm in this place."
He was really laying the groundwork in the early stage. In the first 30 minutes, he explained the background of all the characters and the origin of the story. After 30 minutes, everyone gathered in one place, and then the explosion point increased little by little. In the last half hour, The fate of the major characters is pushed to a climax. It was a bit slow in the early days.
Some sensitive film critics also noticed the shots, light, shadow and color inside. The easiest and easiest to find is that the heroine is in a different mood, the flowers in the room and the clothes she wears are different.
Bo Yan also nodded honestly: "In the original writing, in addition to dialogue, many people's moods and situations could not be presented intuitively. I asked the heroine to change into different clothes, really to express her mood. But now It looks--a little superfluous."
Bo Yan said "superfluous", that is, Xia Siyu's performance... It's really good.
In the trailer released a few days ago, some Xia Siyu looks like wearing a cheongsam, but it basically does not match the plot, only one or two simple scenes, although it is amazing enough, but with the plot, it is like- - It's like being alive.
She lives in that old house very obediently. The supplies, furnishings, and clothing around her, as well as her breathing, seem to be integrated with the old building.
She is like someone who lived in that era, brilliant, fresh, and decadent.
As Eileen Chang said, a gorgeous robe covered with lice.
In the beginning, the film critics did not comment on Xia Siyu, because Bo Yan did not let them praise, but only asked them to give more opinions.
