The rhythm of this movie is cute and interesting. Movies, especially inspirational biographical movies, generally follow the development of "low tide → hard work → turnaround → continue hard work → twists and turns → success → reflection (optional)", but this one is " "Face-slap" style development, something just happened. The audience thought it would be like this next, but the plot turned out to be like that. Every time a face-slapped is a small climax, the plot is so lively and bouncing. , Developed smoothly and smoothly:
(1) Rudy ate with his friends, and his friends laughed at his plan to do stand-up comedy, Rudy left the table angrily. ——You think this is exaggerating the protagonist’s loneliness, he is not understood, he is laughed at by his friends, he is a lone traveler——
Then the friend chased it out and apologized to him: "Sorry man, we are just joking." With a sincere expression of worry and sadness, they were still with each other at the end of the movie.
(2) Rudy asked sadly, why is my life so small and insignificant? The record shop should be his temporary job, the starting point for concerts, movies, and television, but he was stuck in this job and achieved nothing. ——You thought he was going home, drunk and weeping, he was in bad luck, and he was hard to find a friend——
Then he immediately ran to implement his comedy plan. Bribe homeless people with money and wine, and find inspiration for jokes in their stories. The five characters "I must be red" were dazzlingly written on his face, without a single tear.
(3) Tucao others: "Why is he smart, he just speaks swear words." The next second he stood on the stage and output swear words and pornographic jokes.
(4) The director was dissatisfied with the director of photography (white student) that Rudy asked for: "Rudy, we need a director who knows how to shoot black people!" Rudy: "Well? You are racist!" Wait and so on.
In addition to the slap on the face of the plot itself, there are also many plots that reverse the common sense/expectations of the audience. For example, Rudy begged her aunt to borrow money. While hugging her, he raised a butter knife and threatened: "Woman, give me money!" This plot reminded me of Huang Zihua. When his salary was meager, he couldn't afford to pay for living. When his mother asked him for living expenses, he sang a song "I Really Love You": "It's you! What a warm look! Teach me perseverance! Looking ahead! Tell me to fall! Don't give up!" Killing offense, mother has no power to parry, crooked ways will win.
Although my mother didn't ask me to pay for living expenses, she beat me in every possible way while I was unemployed. One day my mother scolded me for nothing, and I said pitifully, "Don't be so fierce, I will be sad." My mother sneered: "You can't be depressed, the whole world is depressed, and you can't be depressed." I suddenly thought of "Joker", the clown also wants to be a stand-up comedian, he wrote in his notebook: "I hope My death is more valuable than my life." I thought to myself: If I really get depressed, will my illness be more valuable than my health with my mother?
but I do not have. Instead, I thought complacently, see, this is talent. I was born to eat comedy. Anyone who knows me knows that I am best at laughing at life.
I finished my first single-note manuscript in its entirety. It was during the low period of joblessness. The material is mainly the dissatisfaction when working, and the blinding of the eyes when waiting for a job. While reviewing sad things while writing manuscripts, I couldn’t help but feel: I’m too miserable... It’s like looking back at the bill, but I don’t know it. I was shocked when I saw it. . (Not deliberately rhyming, but talent.)
And how did these become comedies? Comedy is accident, exaggeration and reversal. When you say "I really love my wife", the next sentence the audience expects is "So I buy her flowers every day"; and the comedian said, "So even though she has filed for 159 divorces, I firmly disagree. "——This is how happiness is created. This is why, comedians are actually talking about things that are not funny. The comedian laughed at the tragedy and joked about embarrassment. We worked hard to squeeze this sour and bitter lemon into a glass of delicious lemon juice. Audiences like comedy, not only for contrast and surprises, but also because in humor, they can see courage, confidence and hope.
Don't forget Ms. Rhett, my husband is merciful everywhere and spends all the money on the affair. This lady's response is: my old lady will blow your face with a punch, and my old lady will blow your egg. Rudy said to Ms. Reid, you are a person in the entertainment industry, and you are particularly attractive. Before you beat your husband, I noticed you. Me too, long before I had the ability and courage to live with the hammer, as early as when I was hammered by life, I noticed myself.
Rudy went to Rico and asked the tramp on the street: "Do you know Corey? The one with no teeth?" The tramp opened his mouth and showed him that he does not have teeth. He laughed and said:" Like this?"
Once I had a meal with a friend, my friend said sadly: "I wanted to be a star, rich and happy, but now I am a social animal in an office building. I am a total loser." At that time, I thought gloomily: I still want to. As a stand-up comedian, now I don’t even have a job. Next time he said this again, I would laugh, point to myself and say, "The loser? Is it like this?"
I don’t laugh under the spotlight. I don’t laugh when I win the 10 million lottery. When I look at the "loser" in the mirror, when I write a manuscript of a stand-up comedy, when I watch a story about my dream career. When you are in a movie, you will laugh out loud. If my life is a movie, then it doesn’t need to be so sexy (it’s better to be a sexy emotional scene), and it doesn’t need to be so serious, it can be funny.
It's winter, and it's the end of the year again. As ordinary people look back on this year, it is inevitable that we lose more than we gain. Take a look at this movie. (It is not recommended to watch it with old fathers and mothers. It contains a lot of vulgar jokes. My New Year family holiday recommendation will always be Tsui Hark’s "Taking Tiger Mountain" , and the elders in the family will say good things after watching it!) Maybe You don't want to be a stand-up comedian. Maybe you can't get the jokes in the movie, but you will definitely be moved by Rudy and his friends. In the final analysis, there is hope in this garbage dump on earth; in the final analysis, there is courage and confidence in us. Laugh out loud, friend! I wish you a wonderful new year full of laughter!
