Chocolate said: How about Ang Lee's new film?

A: Based on the vaguely worded comments, it should be a hit.

The comments that can be seen so far are the first batch of celebrities who watched 60 frames of visuals. They wrote eloquently about Ang Lee's difficulties, but for the movie itself, it is difficult to express direct love, so it must be It's not satisfying enough, the game is dead, and the current Western scoring system thinks this film is not good.

Of course, there are still many sayings that Westerners can't understand Ang Lee's beauty, and that Ang Lee will not be so bad no matter how bad it is.

My thought may be that this time it might be really bad. Of course, I will wait until I have watched at least 60 frames of platoons to prove it.

Talking about some of my analysis, Ang Lee may indeed be the light of the Chinese people. Everyone mentioned his previous works, and he is such a humble person that it is really difficult to be held accountable as a Chinese.

My point of view this time is that Director Ang Lee is really like a great KOL. This time he transformed into an MCN, but his ability is not enough, or he may have gone in the wrong direction. It's all bullshit, just for reference.

It is best to talk about him first, and we have to have a little foundation. Ang Lee has a detailed sharing of his thoughts on "A Dream of a Movie in Ten Years of Sleep", as well as various interviews. I seem to have the courage to take up his courage every time except for "The Hulk". Not finished. I couldn't find a good source for "Sense and Sensibility" and didn't watch it. I even watched "Ride with the Devil", and especially liked to watch many of his interviews. It is very representative and worth watching. In the "Fantasy Drifting of the Youth Pie", he and Long Yingtai's speech, and Chai Jing's interview, and Chen Wenqian's interview correspond to each other. Very rewarding. Including that he was interviewed by Lu Yu later, and it was very useful to talk about his father and how to be a good gentleman.

The most unbearable thing for me is Xu Zhiyuan and Yin Shanshan's interview with Li An. Yin Shanshan's concept of talking about Li An is a deep cabinet, I really feel very offended, and Xu Zhiyuan's story... not to mention.

First of all, Ang Lee's films are really a combination of Chinese and Western, and they learn from others' strong points. When watching his father's trilogy, he always gives people strength, and the coldness and obsession of "Lust and Caution" are also enough to move people. Tony Leung is really good at acting, and Wong Kar Wai always digs him. There are all kinds of possibilities, but the truly terrifying darkness of the show is the only one I think is Lust, Caution. Here, Mr. Yi seems to really touch the darkness and be swallowed by the dark soul, and it is hard to stop chewing it repeatedly.

There is no further extension here. I mainly want to talk more about the language in which Ang Lee was interviewed. Since director Ang Lee is a Libra, he speaks a lot, but if you take a closer look, you can see that he tells a lot of really difficult truths. At the same time, I have to say that every time he comes out, he has great language to promote his films for the movie platform. . I think it's very good marketing.

For example, when talking about the embarrassment of the juvenile pie, he will say that the world is the most difficult to photograph the sea, child, and he has to bite the bullet. For example, when talking about Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, he said that he himself is Yu Jiaolong. There may also be a team here, but overall his language is not only genuinely learned, but also really accurate for promoting movies.

This time he talked about comedy and Huang Bo again, in fact, I think he is very worried. It feels like the director has been working hard on technology, but there really doesn't seem to be much that he can dig out.

At the time of the father trilogy, director Ang Lee found some kind of true opposite because of his strict father, who was both affectionate and brave. And "The Hulk" is obviously still the motif, but it's not quite right. Of course, "Sense and Sensibility", "Ride with the Devil" and "Ice Storm" all have a feeling that the East understands you, the West, and the West is not good enough...

"Brokeback Mountain" seems to be about love and disapproval. Anyway, it's all about repression and poetry under social constraints. And "Lust and Caution" is actually very ruthless. I feel that starting from "Lust and Caution", the faint restlessness before "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" completely released the power of pure black. Once again, the director made "The Fantastic Beauty of Teenage Pie". This movie is really amazing. After watching it repeatedly, I have the feeling that it breaks the secret and is included in the storytelling. It is very consistent.

At that time, I had a strange feeling when I watched Juvenile Pie, because Angtai Li confessed that he could always see his thinking and life in his movies. In his previous works, he had the feeling of "killing his father". In the part where the youth party shouted at the sky, it was not like a confrontation with the patriarchal power, but a kind of nostalgia. But in his autobiography, Ang Lee's father is the kind of person who reminds him to stop making movies and become a teacher after winning an award. Later, I watched the interview with Lu Yu's appointment, and then I didn't know it. I found something new: Ang Lee didn't want to make a movie for a while, but his father encouraged him instead. At the same time, he more or less regretted not being able to accompany his father, which I think I felt at Juvenile Pie.

When it comes to "Billy Lynn", I feel that I can see a more obvious autobiography, a more obvious tender love for the father. Technology is actually only second, but this kind of digging may also be due to technology not digging deeply.

As Ang Lee said, his current status is okay to shoot casually anyway, so he went to challenge more difficult things. But I am thinking that what he may really want to dig is whether there is a darker negative in his heart as a story material worth challenging. He is particularly sensitive and can always capture the instinctive oppression of various civilizations, which can only be solved by enduring and dreaming. But when he might make a motif about the self and aging, I was vaguely concerned that he might not be able to say anything. Because Ang Lee is really perfect. Perfect people may not be able to talk about themselves...

Last year, Uncle An was depressed because of the Golden Horse, and "Gemini Killer" came out soon... Actually, there is nothing to worry about, after all, he is the one who everyone loves. I'll wait until I've read it to see if my guess is correct this time, or it's pure nonsense.

So going back, I think Ang Lee is really a good KOL. He is so troubled when he is transitioning to become an MCN, but he will still do it because he is always eager to challenge. Uncle An, who is not old, is always cute.
