The film introduced today is also based on an aunt, but not a Chinese aunt, but a fanatical American aunt. (So don't say Chinese aunts, American aunts also have strong tastes)
In March 1990, the film "Ten Days of Dangerous Love" directed by the American genius director Rob Reiner (if you don't know him, then you must know the two movies "Righteous Sea Heroes" and "Booming Heart") After it was released in the United States, it was like a thunderbolt and became famous all over the world. This film is based on the American horror novel master Stephen King's novel of the same name ("The Shining", "The Mist", "The Shawshank Redemption", "1408 Phantom of the Dead", etc. are all adapted from his classic novels and achieved great success). ) The adaptation of the film even let Kathy Bates, who played the paranoid and eccentric aunt, win both the Oscar and the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress.
An excellent work must have an unconventional theme, an engaging storyline, a rich character, and the handling of the central idea of the sublimated ending. Clearly the movie did it all, and it was a success.
An excellent and world-renowned writer can't bear the torture of constantly absorbing his inspiration from his excellent works, and is ready to receive manuscripts to open up a new realm. Although Xue Tian encountered an accident, being rescued at a critical moment has to be said to be a boon for the writer, and this savior happens to be the author's number one fan. He loves writers so much, because his excellent works know the writer's personal history, creative habits and even living habits well, but the writer murdered his favorite character, which is not good for the melancholy, paranoid and manic heroine who loves the heroine so much. It is absolutely unbearable for my aunt, in order to create a satisfactory character image, intimidation and threats, violence and temptation, do whatever it takes, and finally, in order to never leave the novel I love, hammer the feet and shoot the police. , swears to die with the writer to defend the perfect character he has painstakingly created in his heart. Is there anything more righteous than human beings? If so, let me decide. This is not only the appeal of the heroine Misery in the book, but also the truth that the book lover auntie continues to pursue.
The invincibility of evil may be the only comfort that the director gave us in this terrifying and depressing film, but when the writer worked hard to record this unbearable memory bravely into a book, the terrifying memory will never be forgotten. "Hello, I'm your number one fan" is like a lingering nightmare that will forever haunt the writer's mind.…
I don't know why, after watching this movie, the editor always wanted to compare it with "The Shining". This movie is not a horror movie, although it is not like the work "The Shining" has added a lot of fantasy plots and terrifying ghosts. Factors in it, at most count as a thriller suspense film. However, among the plots where the fans and the writers disagree, the aunt of the fans commits violence (burning manuscripts, giving sleeping needles, breaking ankles with a hammer), and the plots of the writers struggling to resist are compact and closely interlocking, which also makes people sweat. The paranoid, irritable and cruelty of the book fan's aunt is in stark contrast to the writer's struggle and panic to escape, which makes this film even more prominent in the atmosphere of tension and terror. The depression and loss of humanity in the confined space. This film is like the female version of "The Shining", the director writes the entire story in depression and panic. (ps: Kathy Bates and Jack Nicholson are so similar in these two works, the two are equally good from the perspective of paranoid superb acting, they can be called a pair of happy enemies. The editor likes Jack Nicholson Sen is better than Marlon Brando of the same period, not only because of the Joker in "Batman", but also because of this "The Shining", the role of justice is the same, but among the many awesome people who can interpret the bad guys so shamelessly, I am Only serve Nicholson and Kathy Bates, Heath Ledger is another story haha)
You know, Jack Nicholson's "The Shining" frightened how many children who love movies, and how many children gave up their dream of writing because of "The Shining" and "Ten Days of Dangerous" worrying about contracting mental illness. (The editor does not mean to discriminate against writers, but just shows that writers and painters are actually under a lot of psychological pressure)
After talking about the storyline and presentation techniques of this film, the editor would like to talk about the author of the original book, Stephen King, the king of American horror novels. "The Shawshank Redemption", "The Shining", "Fighting Vehicles", and then "Ten Days of Dangerous Love", "Mobile Phone", "Bag of Bones", etc. Although the editor is not used to the expression of American novels, but As a master figure with extremely rich imagination, his bizarre ideas of machines, mobile phones, and monsters slaughtering human beings, the doomsday escape of zombies, bizarre ideas and rich story content always infect the editor.
Friends who have carefully studied Stephen King's works may find that each of his works is not as simple as the highlight of his imagination. In "The Chariot of Fire" and "Mobile Phone", it is after expressing the author's life on high technology. Worries that it will bring disaster to human beings, "The Mist" and "Bag of Bones" show the loss of human nature in the doomsday survival mode, "The Shining", "Ten Days of Dangerous Love" and "1408 Phantom of the Fierce" express the writer's Their various predicaments, the double torture of their own exhaustion of inspiration and external pressure can easily break down this group that is already vulnerable. (Writing here, the editor can't help but think of Fujimoto Hiroshi and his Doraemon because the ending was too tragic, how many fans couldn't bear the blow and committed suicide, and the finale of Crayon Shin-chan doesn't really exist, it's just that Yuan Ye Aoi How many comic book lovers have been hurt by the setting of my brother's missing, but why aren't the writers and comic artists suffering all the time)
It seems to be a bit off topic here. In short, this movie portrays a paranoid and irritable book fan aunt with a rather sturdy and bursting combat power value, which makes no nation in the world ignore the aunt. Group fighting power and right to speak. As for whether this aunt Stephen King has really met, only the parties may know.
