It lasted for a period of time. After sleeping for a while, I had fixed late-night phone porridge, and then fell asleep in the early morning. I can't get up in the morning to do yoga. It is often very sleepy at noon.
Well, let's talk about movies, the 4 I watched recently.
The famous dinner "Night Banquet", "My Grandma" "Red Sorghum", "Miami Vice" starring Gong Li, Woody Allen's controversial work "Match Point" (Chinese translation "Match Point").
The beginning of the beginning, from outside the plot.
Feng Xiaogang said, I also want to play a blockbuster, isn't that the case. So, I brought Hamlet's script, and in order to sell it at a good price in the world, I found Zhang Ziyi, and greatly increased her role. In the script, a character who was only a trigger was enlarged into a heroine full of desire.
Back in time, Zhang Yimou just made his debut in the directing world. The color of "Red Sorghum" is pure and pure, red is a big red, and yellow is the full color of the land or sand dunes. You can interpret it as the point of view of a cinematographer-turned-director.
Watching Gong Li's two films with a time gap of more than 10 years at the same time is entirely a coincidence that I took the disc. The official selling point in "Miami Vice" is that Gong Li and Colin Farrell's passion scene has been approved for mainland screening without cutting it.
The cover photo of "Match Point" has always made me mistake the main character for George Clooney. So how exciting will it be with Scarlett Johansson!
Start.
"Night Banquet" tells us everywhere from the first shot that this is a blockbuster, really a blockbuster. The scene is deep but not stealing the spotlight. What steals the spotlight is the gorgeous costume designed by Ye Jintian and the long soundtrack by Tan Dun. Zhang Ziyi has performed diligently from the very beginning. This role is just as suitable for her and her current acting skills as her previous roles. She is firm inside and out, knows how to make moderate sacrifices and strive for greater gains, and only hides tenderness and true love in the deepest part. In contrast, I prefer Ge You's performance. There is relaxation and relaxation, and there is a degree of retraction. Emperor Li under this script does not need domineering support at all, he is none other than him! Aside from the script, it was inevitable that she should submit to him.
It is said that "seeking girls" are all "Gong Li's face". In fact, Gong Li's face is constantly changing. Gong Li in "Red Sorghum" and Gong Li in "Miami Vice" are naturally not the same. The latter was obviously thinner, with less flame in his eyes and more calm. Gong Li in "Red Sorghum" wears red, thinking that there will be some repressed and circuitous emotional entanglements between her and Jiang Wen. In "Miami Vice", Gong Li wore black, thinking that there would be a passionate emotional experience between her and Colin Farrell.
Not long after "match point" started, I realized that the male lead was not the Clooney I thought at all. How could this "he" resist Scarlett Johansson's beauty and figure? !
go through.
Are the lines of "The Banquet" literary? Those who say that it is extremely literary must have never seen "Da Ming Palace Ci" written by Zheng Zhong and Wang Yao. Director Feng has exhausted the elites in every field, and put every shot as an aesthetic point, pushing everywhere, except for the wrong lines. Or, let the actors who lack cultural confidence memorize their lines until they collapse. Either give up this flavor and extract the classics from the vernacular, just like his previous strengths. The result of the current lines can only be said to be an unsuccessful attempt at hypocrisy. Let the upper class feel that it is not in place, and let the market feel fake.
The plot is not worth saying, and Hamlet is only similar to some stripes, and the big connotation has changed. The most unfortunate thing is Zhou Xun, this role can be played by any actress with one-third of her skill. The benefits of finding her to play are nothing more than an extra shining name on the cast, and the hype that the two actresses will get together or not.
When watching "Red Sorghum", Jiang Wen's "Devils Are Coming" always flashed in my mind, especially when the plot developed to the appearance of Japanese devils. This is a rare candid film by Zhang Yimou, with almost no plot twists and turns, which seems a little too rushed. I can't figure out how such a person would make a movie like "House of Flying Daggers" that doesn't ask for anything. Local things are his roots.
Gong Li's more and more atmosphere is still unable to support things that are too international. "Miami Vice" has her momentum, but lacks her qi. Although the figure is sexy and the face is mature, there is no inner plumpness under the astringent appearance in "Red Sorghum". There is no tacit understanding between her and Colin Farrell between actors, so even the most passionate scenes can be seen as "made". The two actors must not have wanted to do it at the time.
The plot flow of the master is the most to say. Match Point is a true drama. In less than two hours to account for small people entering high society, extramarital affairs, murder, escape and so on. Woody Allen seemed to do it without any hassle. But what's left when these smooth plots are stripped away? The slow landing of the victim's ring echoes before and after the landing of the tennis ball at the beginning of the film, in order to teach the philosophy of different destiny in life again? The thinking brought about by the male protagonist's abandonment between superior life and human nature? They say this is the worst Woody Allen movie ever. I haven't seen any of his other films, but after watching this one, I'm looking for other real Woody Allen films.
result.
Is it still popular to leave suspense to the audience at the end? Director Feng stayed. But the young actor couldn't wait to shout "I killed Zhang Ziyi!" in the blog. Naked shouting "that back is mine!". No way, blockbusters, there are always some unexpected little tidbits, whether it is what they originally set and wanted, it actually helps them to promote it.
Tom's sudden murderous intention in "Match Point" and his careful deployment and implementation, and "Night Banquet" in which Emperor Li suddenly drank poisonous wine because of his emotions, all have traces to follow, but they are also a little unexpected, and the turn is a little hasty.
In the two films, Gong Li died and left. The plot is bleak, but it does not penetrate the audience very much, because there is a larger background.
Summary of the results.
Luxurious piles, played, and that's what it is. The audience did not Calling echo, I believe Director Feng himself will not bother to shoot again.
Director Zhang's earthy smell smells fresh and simple, why do you have to put on the golden armor? Maybe it's just to achieve the goddess in your heart and become a queen on the screen.
From the hatred in the past, to the love after watching "Pretty Mom" Her favorite in and out of the show, Gong Li's score dropped significantly in my heart after "Miami Vice" unfortunately.
Woody Allen, it's so hard to find your CD, hey.
