There is a passion called discovery

A good movie should provide people with a passion. After Wallace shouted "Freedom", I am willing to go to the battlefield for the sword of the warrior (brave heart); as countless men in black with masks After passing through the soldiers silently and gathering in Parliament Square, I would like to become one of the splendid free fireworks (V-letter Vendetta); when one Jew walks by, put a block of pebbles in Sind At Le’s grave, I would like to ask the creator boldly on behalf of those souls who died unjustly: Who gave some people such evil, and who gave others such good? (Schindler’s list)
Year after year has passed. I have been in contact with movies for more than a dozen years. There are fewer and fewer movies that touch me and give me passion. This Da Vinci Code is no exception. It Are you passionate? Yes, is the passion enough to be included in the classics? No. However, the passion of this movie is very unique. Its name is Discovery.



In the dim theater, lie was performed on the screen. From the time the old man lay on the floor and put himself in the "Vitruvian Man", we followed the lie into the depths of time, and Jesus Christ spread the gospel; his blood Inheritance from people who were slandered as prostitutes by later generations; Constantine the Great established Christianity as the state religion; the massacre on Black Friday on the 13th... The male power lies from St. Peter, a god, married and had children, a man , But was able to worship for all generations.

So we followed the Harvard professor, and of course, a beautiful woman, on a journey of discovery to expose lies.

For a long time, I believe that the book "The Da Vinci Code" was successful for two reasons: 1. Rich knowledge. 2. Put all the evidence contained in the rich knowledge as cleverly as one's side, and draw amazing conclusions. Dan Brown really got a hit with this book, and it can be seen that he has put a lot of effort into this book (especially compared with his other books), especially the use of well-known historical facts and characters in this book. Allusions, classic works of art, and vocabulary are split to draw readers step by step towards their own purpose: to persuade them and substitute them into their own world.

In the book, the author strayed from the topic, carried out popular science, and even moved the content that should be marginal notes into the main text for everyone to teach. As long as you handle it well, you can. But how can there be so much time in the movie to tell you this? Even if there is plenty of time, isn’t it that the audience will fall asleep, so there are flaws that any movie version of the novel cannot get rid of: the plot is generally taken into account, but the details behind the plot, the knowledge behind the plot — especially in the book In the book, this kind of knowledge may also be exciting-it is omitted, and we have said before: the allure of this book is the accumulation of individual knowledge into a new, incredible, and inspiring A marvelous theory, if a considerable part of the knowledge is omitted, then the process of discovering this theory will not be so exciting, although in most people's eyes, it may still be weird.

In front of the shining big screen, I once again felt the powerlessness of the picture. Perhaps in the process of cracking the secret, the movie can give you some music that mobilizes the atmosphere, but I still feel: In the summer vacation that year, the evening breeze was habitual, Lying on the summer mat with a book in my hand, I was even more excited.

When it comes to film adaptation, many people will ask me: Is there a big difference in plot? Regarding the "Da Vinci Code", it is fair to say: Not big. The question is, is this a novel that only looks at the plot? It is equally fair to say: No. Thus, regret has arisen.

Regarding the change of the plot, after the first cryptex is opened, there should be a second cryptex in it, and the second cryptex is omitted from the movie. Well, I’m going to speak for the screenwriter. They didn’t plan to change The cracking process of each password and the relationship between the allusions and the monastery are clearly explained. Therefore, there is no need to unlock the second password, although this is another exciting point in the book. But my dissatisfaction with the screenwriters is that they even changed Sophie Neveu's brother! In the original book, Roslyn Church was supposed to be the place where the monastic victory was announced. Sophie met with her brother and grandmother and learned that many years ago, she and her brother had survived the conspiracy to murder their parents as Jesus Christ. The only two bloodlines of "Master" Saunière adopted them separately and hid them in different places. The Holy Grail was preserved, the bloodline survived, and the monastery was victorious. At the same time, this victory was accompanied by Sophie's understanding of Grandpa and the regaining of family happiness. It can be said that this is a major climax of the novel. In the movie, there is neither a small wooden house that hides suspense and protects the church nor the reunion of loved ones. There are only a group of irrelevant people who come to "watch the fun" (this can also be splendid after handling this, creating this The ancient group met the atmosphere of prophets and spiritual leaders again, but unfortunately, they did not make it) and the old lady's chattering, which greatly reduced the sense of drama and the impact.

It is true that compared with the book, the movie has some regrets, but the handling of the ending is still acceptable.

The ending of the movie, the ending of the book, lies in the Louvre. Where is Maria’s coffin? Where is the holy grail of the entity?
QUOTE: The
Holy Grail is waiting under the ancient Rosslyn Church.
Blade and the Holy Grail guarded her door together.
She lay in the arms of the beloved masterpieces of the masters, and
finally found rest under the starry sky.

When Langdon ran along the ancient "rose line" in Paris, when the Great Pyramid in front of the Louvre flashed in front of the audience, from the glass platform, looking down at the Holy Grail below-the inverted little pyramid At that time, when we were surprised to find that there was a small building below, we finally understood, who could have thought of it? Relying on incomparable loyalty and superhuman wisdom, the monastic society where countless geniuses appeared finally put the goddess in their hearts into the arms of the masters, looking up at the stars.

This is the charm of the movie, maybe it will leave you regrets, but in the end, with the guidance of the surging music and the lens, you can finally find the passion. In this film, this passion is called: discovery.

Final evaluation: The adaptation is more successful, less passionate, and not enough to deal with the heat in some places. It is impossible to be included in the classics, but you can take a look.

PS:

1. The film quality of Southwest Film Metropolis is not good, the sound is sometimes a bit problematic, and the playback level is very amateur, which makes me have the urge to kick the hall.
2. It is estimated that the effect of watching this film will be discounted for those who have not read the book, but it should be said that the film has taken care of this part of the audience more considerately. Regarding the ending, it is impossible for anyone who has not read the book to understand how Langdon found outside the Louvre.
3. There is a scary place in the middle, which caused the whole audience to bark.
4. Someone brought all the little BBs into the arena... crying in the middle... the movie is not rated yet!
5. I didn’t have much passion to write this, but since I agreed with the moderator,


please write it. Welcome to my BLOG to see

    Sophie Neveu: The what? Why are you asking these things?

    Robert Langdon: The Priory of Sion is a myth. One of the world's oldest and most secret societies with leaders like, uh, Sir Isaac Newton, da Vinci himself. The fleur-de-lis is their crest. They're guardians of a secret they supposedly refer to as "the dark con of man."

    Sophie Neveu: But what secret?

    Robert Langdon: The Priory of Sion protects the source of God's power on Earth.

    Sophie Neveu: You knew they were coming?

    Andre Vernet: My guard alerted me to your status when you arrived. Yours is one of our oldest and highest-level accounts. It includes a safe-passage clause.
