"WE~ WILL~ WE~ WILL~ ROCK! YOU!"
Whenever I see this sentence in English, I don't miss it in my mind, but want to sing it. I also want to follow the rhythm of the song "stomping-stomping-clapping -".
This song is "we will rock you" by "Queen", one of the ten most famous rock bands in the world. It can be said that this song has an unshakable position in the hearts of rock fans all over the world.
Together with "we will rock you", "We are the champions" (we are the champions) sing the world , these two songs, because they are very suitable for competition occasions, and even suitable for political occasions, they are so popular. Extremely high.
The Queen’s classic songs are more than these two, and the status of the band in the UK can be directly comparable to the Beatles.
And in the history of album sales in the United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, New Zealand and other countries, the Queen's album sales have remained the number one so far.
Such a great queen, finally, has its own biopic- "Bohemian Rhapsody".
The film tells the story of the lead singer, Uncle Buck Tooth (Freddy Mercury), leading the band members to achieve the most brilliant musical road.
The current overseas release date of "Bohemian Rhapsody" is November 2. The movies that dare to be released in November and December are all intended to impact the various award seasons next year, which will leave more impressions on the judges.
Precisely because of this, the films released in these two months are all heavyweights. "Bohemian Rhapsody" can be released this month, which also shows that the quality of the film will not be bad.
Look at the production company, is twenty Century Fox , last year's Oscar for best film "Water-shaped Story", is the company produced its searchlight.
The screenwriters of the film are written by Anthony McCarten and Pete Morgan who specialize in biographies .
Anthony McCarten wrote the movie "The Darkest Hour" and "The Theory of Everything".
Peter Morgan wrote the British drama "The Crown" and the movie "A Dialogue with Nixon".
These are all very successful biographical works in film and television dramas. The two screenwriters have joined forces. "Bohemian Rhapsody" is the first to be qualitatively guaranteed in the story.
Then there are two directors of the film, the main director is Brian Singer , who has filmed "The Very Suspect", "Nazi Chase", "X-Men: Apocalypse", which can be described as a merger of literary and commercial quality.
In order to find an actor who resembles the lead vocal Uncle Bucktooth, the film finds Lamy Marek , who has been nominated in the TV category many times , plus a set of Bucktooths, which really resembles Uncle Bucktooth (you guessed it) Which one is a real person?).
In May of this year, the premiere trailer of "Bohemian Rhapsody" exceeded 5 million hits on the YouTube platform within 24 hours , becoming the most popular biographical trailer.
Preparations for the film began in 2010. After a lot of adjustments, the film was finally shot in the UK in July last year. It was not until January this year that the filming ended. This long-term filming of more than half a year is at the industrial level of Hollywood. It's already a blockbuster level.
In addition, the title "Bohemian Rhapsody" (Bohemian Rhapsody) is the Queen's most classic song, and it is also the band's famous song. Overseas, this song is actually even more popular than "we will rock you" and "we are the champions". It is currently the highest-selling single in the history of the United Kingdom, not one of them.
The posture and composition of the cover shooting of "Bohemian Rhapsody" have been imitated by later generations.
The song "Bohemian Rhapsody" became the most expensive song to produce at the time because of its complicated production. The whole song can be divided into 6 parts, and each part is not duplicated, and there is no so-called refrain.
The entire song is defined as overture, ballad, guitar solo, opera, hard rock, and epilogue . After listening to the song for nearly 6 minutes, it is like feeling a journey of poetry and fantasy. This auditory feast is like the title of the song. It's like taking someone to participate in a bohemian rhapsody.
After "Bohemian Rhapsody", the Queen has also established its own unique musical style and complex structure, incorporating opera, folk songs, psychedelic rock, arena rock, pop rock, etc., into the exclusive characteristics of the Queen. .
On July 17th, the film sent out another wave of trailers. The trailer assembled the three most classic songs the Queen said before, as well as some other highly sung songs, intertwined into a two-and-a-half-minute theater. Version trailer.
From the information disclosed in the trailer, we can understand that the film will start from the early days of the establishment of the Queen, from the small workshop band " smile " before Uncle Fang joined , to the " Queen " now known as a household name .
Regarding the lead singer Freddy Mercury, Uncle Bucktooth, of course, is also the story line that the film actively focuses on. Uncle Bucktooth is full of legends throughout his life. His blood belongs to the Indian Persian and was born in Zanzibar, East Africa, the monarchy. The country no longer exists. Zanzibar became the People’s Republic in 1964 and merged into Tanzania.
After that, Uncle Buck Tooth experienced his teenage years in India (with 100% recognition of Buck Tooth), and then moved with his family to Middlesack in the UK. In 1970, he and Brian May formed the Queen's Band.
The trailer also shows the band's mental journey of making classic songs, including how to add "Mamma Mia" opera elements to "Bohemian Rhapsody".
And "we will rock you" adds the brainwashing rhythm of "stomping, stomping, clapping".
I believe that after the film is released, we can more intuitively understand the creative process of Queen.
In addition, the trailer most importantly shows the large-scale rock concert of LIVE AID (Save Life) on July 13, 1985 .
This unprecedentedly great concert is hailed as the greatest performance of mankind so far. The concerts were held simultaneously in London, UK and Philadelphia, USA, with the purpose of raising funds for the famine that occurred in Ethiopia and Africa.
This unprecedented concert lasted 16 hours, singing from day to night, gathering all the big HIGH players in the music industry at that time.
Including the Queen, of course, Michael Jackson, Madonna, U2, Paul McCartney of The Beatles, Bob Dylan of the Nobel Prize in Literature and so on.
Gao Xiaosong once talked about the great masters in the 1980s in a certain episode of the show. The essence of the masters was at this large-scale concert. The big high players can only play in teams and can perform alone, unless they are a grand master.
Many well-known singer bands at the time, like U2, could only sing one song on stage.
The Queen is of course a level that can perform alone, but the performance time is nearly half an hour! And there will be a return show in the evening! Queens also became the band with the longest stay on stage and the most repertoire during that performance!
The Queen’s first appearance was at 6:40 in the evening. This time is considered the prime time of the concert. The first song the Queen sang was the title of the movie "Bohemian Rhapsody . "
From the documentary of the year, you can see that the typhoon and charisma of the lead singer, Uncle Yakuya, dominate the show, making people excited!
The trailer has several screens, recreating the glorious moments of the Queen, including the classic "we will rock you" beat.
With such a great highlight of the Queen, we are fortunate to have witnessed it in the cinema in this year's "Bohemian Rhapsody", and can also feel the glorious imprint of the masters of music in the 1980s.
Maybe, there will be more singers and bands we are familiar with in the film.
In short, Dah Cong does not recommend movies easily. Biopics of the level like "Bohemian Rhapsody" should not be missed.
Pay attention to the public account of "Da Cong Watching Movies", do not pursue running volume, only grind high-quality goods.
