Seriously talking nonsense

"Seven Days of Hell" and "The Tour of the Pharmacy" are both comedy shorts in the form of pseudo-documentaries.

"Seven Days of Hell" is still seriously imitating documentaries, so there are still possible people in character design. There are clear character elements to their actions: one is lustful, the other is a little silly. And many details and laughs are logical and self-consistent, such as the silly child's tiger mother and the scene on the back wall, which are very suitable laughs. Therefore, it is generally in line with the style of the pseudo-documentary "serious nonsense", and the comedy and satire effects also come from it.

The way of telling is also more traditional, leaving a "seven-day" suspense first, so that from time to time, I can start talking about another unrelated thing from a certain topic. The ironic topic is wider and the theme is more scattered.

Relatively speaking, in addition to the format of "Circum Pharmacy Cycling Race", it is still a review of the competition + interview. The way, rhythm and performance of the content presentation clearly tell the audience that this is a spoof, and the feeling of the documentary has become very weak.

Although the effect of a book is weak, after throwing aside all the restrictions of the rules of reality, the theme and the background of the story are more concentrated, and the form of telling is more free. Starting from "forbidden drugs", although the topic has been diverted from time to time, most of them are closely related to various chaos highly related to bicycle racing, which is more in-depth than "Seven Days".

However, if you have to choose, "Seven Days" is more in line with its meaning of existence. It seems that this is a series of pseudo-documentaries about sports. If you can combine the advantages of the two films, in a relatively more popular or A better-understood sports genre is a feature film, and the format is the biggest selling point. Comedy is a way of expressing attitudes, and it will be a work that people look forward to.

Personal evaluation 7.5, looking forward to better.

7 Days in Hell quotes

  • Soledad O'Brien: So, Charles, you're now number two in the world. You're favored to win Wimbledon, which would make you number one. How do you do it?

    Charles Poole: Yeah, well, when I'm playing I serve the ball and the man opposite me on the other side of the court, he plays it back to me. Now, then I try to hit to a place in the court that he's not standing in anymore. And if he manages to reach that and play it back, if it lands short, I run forward and then I try and get it to another place in the court that he's not standing anymore. And sometimes it goes outside of these lines on the side of the court. And if that happens, the ump, he shouts "Out!" and that's... that's very bad if that happens to me. But if it happens to the other player, I really like that.

    Soledad O'Brien: I understand how the game of tennis is played. I guess I meant, what's your overall strategy?

    Charles Poole: Yeah, yeah, indubitably, yeah.

  • Serena Williams: It was pretty obvious that he had hidden cocaine in his water bottles... and in his rackets... and in his coke necklace. And even on the lines of the court.

    David Copperfield: Seems crazy now, but you gotta remember this is before cocaine was illegal.

    Off-Screen Interviewer: Cocaine was always illegal.

    David Copperfield: Really?

    Edward Pudding: Oh, we knew he was on cocaine. It's just that in England it's very rude to point things out.
