Chapter 431 The men and women in the cinema
After getting up and leaving the restaurant, Xu Qingya said softly, "I don't want to go back yet. Uncle, thinking of a girl of the same age who will face the end of her life, I feel very uncomfortable. She must have a lot to experience. , I want to pursue it. But she has no chance."
Du Caige nodded: "Yes."
Originally, he had a lot of emotions, but after thinking about it, he still didn't say it.
Although he has richer life experience than Xu Qingya, his inner world is not necessarily sensitive to Xu Qingya.
What he thought of, maybe Xu Qingya had already thought of it.
"It turns out that the purple and the red are blooming all the time... It's like this, they are all given to the broken well and the ruins..." Ignoring the side glances of the people around, Xu Qingya opened her mouth and sang softly.
This time, perhaps because of such a thing, she has a new feeling for life and life. She sings slightly different from before, and the feelings contained are more delicate.
"Uncle, accompany me to watch a movie, watch a comedy, you have to laugh from beginning to end."
"OK."
They came to the cinema and were told that a work directed by Liao Leijun was being shown.
Director Liao Leijun is a first-line director, and he is only one level lower than the super-famous director Shu Yihuan.
For example, if Shu Yihuan is equivalent to a director at the level of Zhang Yimou and Feng Gangpao, almost everyone in China knows about it.
Then Liao Leijun is almost equivalent to Zhou Xingye (director Xingye, non-actor Xingye) and Guan Hu.
Maybe you haven't watched his movies seriously, but at least at some point, you've seen videos edited from his movie clips, or seen the introduction to his movies on TV shows, or read about it on the Internet. discussion of his films.
Liao Leijun is good at comedy films. His films are usually released in the Spring Festival and summer vacations. I don't know why this time I put them in November when my grandfather doesn't care and grandma doesn't love them.
Buy a ticket to enter the venue, and one game just opened for two or three minutes.
Bought popcorn and milk tea, cut the ticket and entered the theater.
It was pitch-dark inside, Du Caige glanced at it, about half of the seats were filled with the audience.
Although it's the weekend, the movie has been out for a while, and with such an attendance, it's really good.
When I bought a ticket at the front desk,
Du Caige also paid attention to it. The film's schedule rate is still high, indicating that the box office and attendance rate have always been strong.
He was in a trance when suddenly a soft little hand tucked into his palm and led him to the seat they bought.
Du Caige was ignorant at first? After he reacted, his heart beat a few times in disappointment.
Xu Qingya's small hands can be said to be soft and boneless? Cool? Very dry.
In some novels, the description of a girl's weeds would say "like white jade with suet fat".
In fact, a girl's hands can't be so tender.
Unless it is a lady from an ancient super noble family, who can't go outside the door? A girl who doesn't even do handicrafts in female red? It is possible to raise such a hand.
Although modern girls don't need to farm, but they have to write, do housework, and use various tools in their daily lives, and it is impossible to maintain them so well.
But Xu Qingya's hands are really tender.
Much younger than Duan Xiaochen.
After all? Young age. Invincible youth.
Thinking of Duan Xiaochen, Du Caige suddenly hesitated. You don't seem to be doing this yourself, right?
But through the dim light of the movie screen, I saw Xu Qingya's profile, but the little girl was very calm? Seriously looking for a seat.
Uh, actually holding hands is nothing? Kindergarten children often hold hands too.
In social occasions, it is normal for male and female celebrities to hold hands and hold hands? Right?
This is normal and not worth the fuss.
Du Caige nodded? He was led by Xu Qingya with peace of mind? He found a seat.
What reassured him even more? After sitting down, Xu Qingya pulled out her hand.
Well, the little girl's heart is beautiful, and she doesn't linger on the private affairs of men and women, which is very good.
In the movie theater, the lights are dark and the lights are on. Because I'm afraid of the dark, I'm worried about falling because I can't see the road, so I hold my hand. It's normal.
No fuss.
After you sit down, you can watch a movie with peace of mind.
Du Caige has a habit of not doing anything else while watching a movie.
Even if it is a very bad movie, you can think about why it is so badly shot, or think about whether each shot is good, but the combination is a mess, whether there is a problem with the editing.
In short, there is something to be learned from watching even a poorly rated movie with many problems.
And this comedy "Baby Project" directed by Liao Leijun is by no means a bad film.
The laughter is relatively dense, and there are laughter or knowing laughter in the cinema almost every minute.
The plot of the movie is also very smooth, without being pretentious, and ordinary adults can easily understand it.
The character depiction is not heavy, but it can be remembered.
Xu Qingya drank milk tea and occasionally ate a piece of popcorn by the side, and laughed like a silver bell from time to time.
Du Caige was also fascinated by it. For him, he was not only appreciating a story, but also learning from a director who was above him and whose skill level was higher than his.
Du Caige is the youngest director of the billion-dollar club on earth, and it can only be said that he has great potential.
He is not a big director, just a new director with a strong upward momentum.
Although the total box office of director Liao Leijun's works is only one billion, but considering the difference in age and purchasing power, his one billion box office is at least equivalent to Du Caige's four or five billion movie box office at that time.
Of course, if Du Caige was given another five or six years at that time, he would travel a few years later and make two or three big-budget movies, maybe he would be able to reach the level of Liao Leijun.
No, it is definitely possible.
He has this confidence.
Du Caige's whole mind is on the movie.
Xu Qingya watched the movie for a while, but her eyes fell on Du Caige's side face.
The indeterminate light shines on his handsome face, and the split space and changing shadows create a very special visual effect.
And his concentrating and serious appearance is also expected to be good-looking.
It can make the hearts of 90% of the pregnant girls in this world slammed.
When Xu Qingya read romance novels before, she read it more than once, saying that the best time for a man to read is when he does things seriously.
Even an average-looking man looks extremely handsome when he is working hard.
For the uncle, watching movies is not leisure entertainment, but his career and dream.
That's why he was so serious at this time, so... handsome.
Xu Qingya suddenly felt a fever on her face and her breathing was a little short.
Fortunately, the uncle was watching the movie attentively and didn't notice it.
Even if he noticed it, it would be difficult for him to realize anything.
Uncle is an idiot after all.
Xu Qingya smiled slightly and continued to enjoy the movie.
When he saw the end, Du Caige let out a slight sigh of regret.
He felt that the film was good in the beginning, but at the end of the film, his intentions did not stand up.
Therefore, it has become a simple comedy and popcorn movie, and it has not been sublimated.
It's a pity.
In this movie, if you want to make a comparison, Du Caige will use "Charlotte Annoyance" as an analogy.
The plot and story structure are different, but they are all funny.
There is also a hilarious male protagonist, and there are also some ironic stories.
There are also plots in which the hero forgets his original intention and loses himself.
The same...the ending failed to sublimate, leaving regrets.
If Du Caige were to score, out of 10, he would give the two films a similar score: 7.
Of course, in the entire movie market, a 7 is good enough.
At least it can sweep hundreds of millions, or even a billion box office.
It's a pity... If it can be sublimated at the end, it can make people more impressive, and the score can be higher by 0.5 points.
It can evolve from a "popcorn movie that makes people laugh and forget" to a "classic movie in some respects".
Like that Charlotte Troubled.
As a comedy movie, number one, it can make people laugh. Second, it can make people think about something after laughing. Third, when thinking, there will be some terrifying things, and some sad reality infiltrates.
So many viewers think that Charlotte Annoyance can be regarded as half a classic.
Why is it a classic?
As a drama that has been polished for several years, it was put on the big screen. The various jokes and rhythms of this film, including many golden sentences, have been tested for a long time and have been recognized by the audience.
Why do you say half? Because after all, there is less sublimation.
The sublimation opportunity for Charlotte's troubles is at the end of the film.
In the plot, Charlotte found out that Qiuya had cheated on him. He had AIDS, betrayed each other, and waited to die on the hospital bed.
At that time, his mood changed drastically.
Here, if done well, the film can be sublimated.
But it's a pity that, after returning to "now" and discovering that time-travel was just a dream, the director portrayed Charlotte as a giant baby who clings to his wife every day for a funny effect...
The comedy effect is out, but unfortunately the opportunity for the sublimation of the film is gone.
Of course, there are also film critics who believe that in the final ending, Ma Dongmei symbolizes reality, and Charlotte sticks to Ma Dongmei all the time, which shows that he has begun to accept and embrace reality, and is no longer the middle-aged man who is lonely and escaping from reality all day long.
But how to say it, what the director wants to express is never important.
It doesn't matter what the critics see.
What matters is what most of the audience felt from the film.
After watching Charlotte Annoyed, most viewers were not satisfied with the ending.
Of course, you can say, "This audience can't do it."
"I did a good job, but it's too advanced. With the current cultural level of the audience, I can't appreciate it."
That's up to you.
At least for Du Caige, if his movie is not liked by the audience, the first thing he has to consider is whether there is a problem with his own thinking, whether there is a gap between his aesthetics and the audience, rather than complaining that "this audience is not good" .
