The strange thing is that after watching "The King of Comedy", the memory is clearer and clearer every time. And it's not that I took the initiative to review this movie, but I have seen the heroes and ghost warriors in other movies by Stephen Chow, and I can always think of Yin Tianchou who teaches acting in the neighborhood theater. After I watched "The King of Comedy" after "Shaolin Football", I started to understand what is so good about this movie; after "Kung Fu" I watched "The King of Comedy" again, and I started to think this movie was awesome; after "Yangtze No. 7" I watched "The King of Comedy" again, and I began to feel fortunate: Fortunately, Stephen Chow once made such a movie; now I watch "The King of Comedy" again after "Journey to the West", but in the end only a kind of helplessness will come to my heart. : There will never be such a movie again.
I have watched "Journey to the West" and revisit "The King of Comedy", have watched "Chill" and then revisit "Infernal Affairs", have watched "The Flying Sword of Dragon" and then revisit "New Dragon Inn"...Sometimes I feel myself He is an immoral old antique, a shameless bastard who puts down his chopsticks and scolds his mother, and an unscrupulous undercover in a movie theater. I will go to hell after I die, right? I think the difference between heaven and hell is that "The King of Comedy" and "New Dragon Inn" are played in heaven, and "Chill" and "Flying Armor of Dragon Gate" are played in hell.
"The King of Comedy" is actually not as funny as its name. It can ensure that your tears are not laughed, but cried; it can ensure that your tears will not fall, but just swirl in your eye sockets; It can guarantee that no baggage is made for funny purposes alone, but all the baggage contains Stephen Chow’s decades of life. Opening all the baggage, spreading the furnishings together, is his whole life. It is a brief history of the Hong Kong film dragon set; it can ensure that all the actors and even the dragon set, from sister Xia to brother SUNNY, are accurately tuned to the same channel, and the film is holographic, and the whole can be restored from an actor. A movie; it can ensure that every shot is perfect, it can ensure that every note in the soundtrack can accurately correspond to a frame of picture...
The movie "The King of Comedy" can guarantee too much. Its biggest guarantee is to ensure that Zhou Xingchi finishes the last shot of this movie. After calling CUT, he can shoot the dust on his body and nod and say, I have completed my mission as an artist, and all my talents have been used up. , Please call me Jay Chou later. There will never be such a movie again.
The last scene of delivering lunch is actually extremely important. A simple box lunch brings the tension to the extreme. A simple box lunch suddenly awakened the obsessive Yin Tianqiu. Yin Tianchou finally said helplessly in the backstage of the Neighbourhood Theater: "Forget it, I don't have much talent for acting, so I should be a better audience." When
I saw this sentence and this scene yesterday, I suddenly remembered "The Bullet Flies Over." The screenwriter named David in "Broadway", like Stephen Chow, said at the end of the story: "There are two things I can be sure of, first, I love you, and second, I am not an artist, my God, I said It's easy to come out." I suddenly understood the movie. "The Bullet Flies Over Broadway" ends here. If "The King of Comedy" ends here, let the camera gradually zoom out and give the backstage of the neighborhood theater a big panorama. We can see Yin Tianchou, Liu Piaopiao, and Hong Ye was busy in the background, and then the subtitles slowly rose...If so, "The King of Comedy" can score 9.9 points. Blame it for its bright ending, which seems to have been reviewed by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. Oh, yes, that ending belongs to the Lunar New Year file.
I like movies with feelings. "The King of Comedy" has achieved the ultimate in feelings. What is the ultimate? Just that no one will surpass it, that is, there will never be such a movie again.
"Actually, I don't have much talent for acting." I think this sentence is Zhou Xingchi's aspiration at the time, and it is the whole meaning of the movie "The King of Comedy". More than ten years of acting career, sad with tears in laughter, exhausted effort to create this script, every piece of the story has been crafted, and the composition of each shot is almost perfect. The result is only 20 million box office. At the awards ceremony Going back empty-handed. In "Shaolin Football" two years later, Stephen Chow began to use computer special effects extensively and began to use mainland actors. As a result, he brought him the best film, best director, best actor and a box office of 60 million. That year was a watershed. Since then, film has completely become a business. Zhou Xingchi is no longer an artist, he has become a businessman. He took out his previous burdens and repeatedly peddled them. You can’t blame him, because he would shrug his shoulders and say: I’ve said it before, but I’m actually not talented for acting. Okay. Selling laughs, fast food does not include the night, thank you.
There have been many sequels of "Western Journey", but "The King of Comedy" has never been, not a single one. For so many years, no matter how many scandals Chou Xingchi circulated, no matter what ups and downs Cecilia Cheung has experienced, no matter if the actor of Supreme Bao is Chen Bolin or Huang Bo, but in "The King of Comedy", Yin Tianchou and Liu Piaopiao have been alone. , Live happily together forever. Thank you, Stephen Chow.
