Dim lights, shaking.

Through the shadows and brightness produced by the swing of the light, the characters in the picture are arranged one by one. When the light shakes, the light source is concentrated in one place, and the other three sides are slightly dim. This use of light appears for the first time in a Chinese-language film!

Liu Qingyun was the first to appear in the camera. The lights were shaking, and the expression on his face through the lights was particularly eye-catching. A few simple movements made the audience feel his "worry".

Combined with the fortune-telling scenes they saw before, many viewers guessed that the fortune-telling was not optimistic.

The lamp flickered again, and Louis Koo, Li Zhaoji, Su Liyao, Luo Dong, and Wu Zhenyu appeared one by one. Finally, they became fat and grabbed the swaying chandelier. The light source stabilized and the whole scene suddenly became clear.

Seven people are either sitting or standing, cleverly creating a "confrontation" spatial scene.

The prismatic composition, with everyone standing sideways and facing each other, has a unique "ceremonial sense".

The film emperor Akira Kurosawa is best at creating a sense of ritual. In later generations, Spielberg's films have many ritual atmospheres, and there are traces of imitating Kurosawa.

Liang Gaohui suddenly discovered that as the movie progressed, his master Li Hanxiang gradually became serious from cynicism. The old man leaned forward and sat upright. He stretched his head forward and stared at the screen, unable to bear to miss a frame.

"Does this sense of ceremony resemble Hu Jinquan? No..."

Li Hanxiang suddenly said to himself, "This group scene expresses the pictures and characters through the scheduling of light and shadow, and sublimates a faint sense of ritual. This clip reminds me of Kurosawa Akira's "Seven Samurai" and Hu Jinquan's "Xiaman" The bamboo forest scene in "Girl"...Jin Quan was just scratching the surface..."

scare!

Liang Gaohui looked at the picture in surprise.

This is not the first time he has watched this scene. He used to think this scene was absolutely amazing. Now it seems that Wu Xiaozu not only used light to adjust the scene, but also adjusted the characters and the audience's eyeballs.

In addition, this scene actually creates a sense of ritual... By the way, is this really directed by the Wu Xiaozu I know? In a daze, he still remembered that Wu Xiaozu had fucked three of his own family members last night. A bowl of rice...

He touched the Jian brand cigarettes in his left pocket, and then touched the Marlboro in his right shoulder pocket. Liang Gaohui felt that he should change his cigarettes to a different grade. Maybe today Wu Xiaoceng would be proud of Wu Xiaoceng, and tomorrow he would be proud of Wu Xiaoceng. Maybe proud of it?

According to Master Li Hanxiang, should this movie go to Cannes to participate in the Film Festival? Then go to Berlin, and then to Venice...

For a moment, he regretted not dissuading Wu Xiaozu from giving up his immediate interests and going to Europe for a tour first... Maybe he could just wholesale a bag of gold trophies and come back?

Is it possible for me, an Academy Award-winning actor, to change?

Oscar looks good...

A good actor with rich inner drama. At this moment, Leung Gai-fai explains what it means to be an actor!



"Papa -"

Liu Weiqiang, who guest-starred as the owner of a tea restaurant, patted the radio that sounded "rustling, rustling...".

"I vow to go, enter the Mountain of Swords, be majestic and brave, and pass a thousand passes;

Unlimited passion, a man's heroic spirit;

Hell also comes and goes alone,

Deliberately breaking into the tiger and leopard's den,

When will we go today..."

Seven people fill the screen, and this kind of group play itself is very cool. Wu Xiaozu also chose a very cool song - "Vow to Enter the Mountain of Swords".

Uh...original!

The strong snare drumbeat, paired with Wu Xiaozu's deep voice, was played through an inconspicuous little recorder in the ice room. When paired with the "million dollar deal" of seven people, the audience felt a unique black color when watching it. humor.

Black humor is not new in Hong Kong Island.

The Hong Kong comedy itself is a manifestation of black humor. However, the black humor of "The Birth of a Prefix" is much more advanced. The audience looked at the unreliable seven people and listened to such a heroic song, and there was a unique feeling. A sense of intellectual superiority.

"This young man who competed with you at the beginning is quite talented. In a group scene, the seven characters were shot in different colors, including panic, exaggeration, and indifference. It was very interesting..."

The short-haired woman sitting in the back row teased the skinny boyfriend beside her, "No wonder we were able to grab more than 10 million yuan in box office from us."

Tsui Hark looked at the horizontal panoramic camera in front of him, looked at the picture, and suddenly said, "Happy, angry, worried, thoughtful, sad, fearful, scared?" His words seemed like questions, but his expression was clear and determined.

When Shi Nansheng heard this, she also looked at the seven people on the screen. This time she didn't care to talk to Tsui Hark. This movie obviously contains the director's great ambitions.

Ordinary audience: What a cool stance and cool lines.

The IQ-Advanced Audience: An Absurd Comedy.

Film critic: Akira Kurosawa? Space scheduling? Light contrast? Hidden human characteristics?

Everyone can see the viewing effect they want to see from this movie. Wu Xiaozu is a thief. If he blindly plays with long shots and connotations, I am afraid this movie will make him vomit blood.

Jiang Wen said: I made money while standing.

Wu Xiaozu did not have such a consciousness. If he could make money, he could lie on the ground.

Of course, Wu Xiaozu has a bottom line... he seems to have one... Anyway, no matter what, his bottom line is just a little lower, such a long distance: 1-∞-1

Therefore, this movie must make most viewers feel a sense of intellectual superiority after watching it. But it must also ensure that the IQ of the entire movie is online, so that the audience will have a slight sense of accomplishment when watching it.

When you watch "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Terror Cruise", you will feel a sense of intellectual superiority.

Do you still have a sense of IQ superiority when watching "Pen Fairy" and "Tiny Times"?

At least you can't use movies to insult the audience, right? Just watch a movie and become a second-class disabled person when you go out? You're mentally retarded!

Die or die!



The movie progresses quickly and has an appropriate pace.

Accompanied by "Vow to Enter the Mountain of Swords", a song originally copied by Wu Xiaozu, the six people dispersed in a hurry, leaving only Liu Qingyun standing in front of the table, looking confused.

"Ha ha……"

Many viewers burst out laughing when they saw this. This kind of comedy effect is not "funny" like Xu Guanwen's, nor is it vulgar shit and pissing. It is through a strong contrast, giving the audience a hint, and is extended by the audience's psychology. The sense of judgment that comes out determines the comedy effect.

Some people say that the core of comedy is tragedy! Later, many people regarded this sentence as a golden rule.

That's because after the characters in your film are torn apart and crushed, what the audience actually sees is the tragedy of the characters in the play, which is the initial cause of comedy. The reason why there is such a comedy effect is because the audience has a relationship with the characters in the play. The contrast between characters creates a sense of superiority.

Hegel said: Comedy comes from contradictions

Wu Xiaozu created an absurd humorous effect through this contradiction between before and after.

Wu Xiaozu doesn't know whether the core of comedy is tragedy, or he doesn't completely agree. He only believes that whether it is a comedy movie or a tragedy movie, the core should be life.

Therefore, Wu Xiaozu’s consciousness is still higher than that of Zhou Xingxing. Except for money!

The movie continued and soon came to a scene of seven people taking a shower.

black!

Warped!

thin

pit!

white!

hard!

Fat!

As soon as the seven kinds of butts appeared, the whole audience burst into laughter! If the one just now was the difference effect caused by contrast, then this one is really a naked mockery.

"The buttocks of seven people illustrate the connotation of each character! This is the director's exploration of human nature in the film!"

Fang Paulo, a newspaper columnist and film critic and a "big V" in the 1980s, seriously wrote down this unclear and harsh statement in his notebook.

He was excited and proud at the moment!

New Wave is not dead!

The real standard bearer of Hong Kong Island’s new wave has emerged!

Xu Anhua and Yan Hao have already bowed to capital, Tsui Hark and Tan Jiaming have knelt down. Fang Yuping has dystocia!

At the moment when they, the "real" filmmakers and critics, were heartbroken and about to burst into tears, a work full of genius and creativity was born.

At this moment, his eyes were moist!

Why do I often have tears in my eyes? It’s just because I love movies so deeply. This is a portrayal of these “big Vs”.

Looking at the back of the young director not far away, he, and they, found a new banner!

"What a director with artistic pursuits! He has found his way back from the lost path!"

Lu Yanhua is not as "concerned about the country and the people" as her good friend Fang Paulo. She just feels that this movie can be enjoyed by both refined and popular people!

"Good movies should be praised more." A man next to him with a side-parted comb and a rather feminine temperament sighed.

Lu Yanhua smiled and shook her close friend's strong, manly hand. She knew that she had developed a love for talents again.

With his friend "valuing" him, Director Wu basically put a key mark on the heart of "a senior filmmaker in Hong Kong".

A road of Kang (zuo) and Zhuang (si) lay in front of Wu Xiaozu - the road of death through literary and artistic tricks.

"Capital is a good thing, and commercial films are also a trend. But there still need to be some people in Hong Kong who can shoot real art." It (he/she) said with a smile.
To be continued...
