Disaster Artist

So, at this moment, what about Lu Qian?

Lu Qian's footsteps are leaving the movie palace, walking along the seawall, and walking towards the Wanzhou Cinema one kilometer away.

Wanzhou Cinema, which is one of the official screening theaters of the Lanxia Film Festival, can accommodate 600 people. It is not too big, but because it is close to the movie palace, it is also very popular.

The absence of the premiere screening was a decision made before arriving at Lan Xia.

the reason is simple-

Lu Qian was not satisfied with this version.

As a director, he clearly knows where the post-production of his work is going. He nodded and agreed to the film's entry at the Lanxia Film Festival. In addition to the pressure from Li Shikuan, it is also because he believes that this version is not far from the final perfect effect.

But the problem is that he clearly knows where there are flaws and where there are loopholes. For this version, he has watched it countless times. If he continues to watch it again, he will continue to remind himself of those shortcomings.

This is very difficult to accept. Lu Qian is worried that he may not be able to laugh at the press conference after the screening; he may even fly back to Lanchuan that night, return to Blue Whale Studio, and continue post-production. All the media who were preparing to interview the crew were left behind.

The two powers harm each other, whichever is the lesser.

Compared with Lu Qian who left all the media on the sea breeze in Lan Xia, actors such as Gao Silin and Aiya had to bear the all-round anger from the media; then, it is no big deal just to miss the screening of the premiere Yes, just sprinkle water.

Therefore, Yu Shao, Ji Xu and others nodded their heads one after another.

After arriving in Lanxia, ​​the attention of the media and the frenzy of the audience were another reason.

Different from Wei Hai's expectations, this time Blue Summer, due to various reasons, factors inside and outside the film festival, the whole "expectation" has changed -

With an aggressiveness.

This is true whether you are expecting the movie to fail or expecting the movie to succeed.

The views of supporters and opponents are obviously sharpened, and the emotions pinned on a movie become mixed, aggressively destroying the emotional weight of the movie itself.

What does it mean?

To put it simply, it can be understood as "prejudice". The movie has not been released yet, and the audience has already preset their position before watching the movie, and they go to watch the movie with this position, which obviously destroys the mood of watching the movie.

For example, if you just broke up with your partner before watching a movie, and you see two people madly showing affection in the movie theater, the mixed taste may break the balance. No matter how excellent a movie falls in your eyes, your nose is not your nose and your eyes are not your eyes. The final impression of the movie may also change completely.

Another example is that you have been busy working all day before watching a movie, and you have only slept for a few hours in the past 48 hours, and you can’t keep your eyes open. Then, after watching a meaningful and profound art movie, you may faint after watching it for fifteen minutes. After falling into a deep sleep, my final impression is "a movie that sleeps well".

Watching movies is inherently emotional—

It is an objective fact that the same person watching the same movie on Monday and Saturday may have completely different experiences due to the difference in working days.

Most of the time, these emotions are harmless, affecting the perception without completely subverting the entire experience; but occasionally, these emotions are so aggressive and destructive that they unreasonably tip the balance, even refusing to enter the film, early on. The result of watching the movie was pronounced.

Either like it, or hate it.

Now, there are faint signs of this.

Before the world premiere of "Star Falling City", the audience had already made a preset in advance—

"I love this movie", "I hate this movie", "This must be a masterpiece", "I will use all the words to destroy this movie"...

and so on and so forth.

It doesn't matter whether it's a positive or a negative emotion, but they haven't seen the movie yet, and they have already made a decision, which is undoubtedly very ridiculous.

It's like, "Although I haven't seen this movie, I think it's crap", "I walked in five minutes and left early and I still say that everyone who liked this movie is an idiot", " I just read the synopsis, but I think it's a five-star masterpiece."

The arrogance conveyed behind these words and opinions is corrosive.

At the same time, it is ignorant, arrogant, and despicable.

Lu Qian is deeply aware that the focus around the movie has already faded, and the interference of off-site factors is becoming a factor that cannot be ignored—

He doesn't mind whether the audience likes or hates "Starfall City". It is impossible for the movie to win everyone's love, but he minds the audience's focus shifting.

Of course, the matter has come to this point, no matter what Lu Qian does, it will be very difficult to reverse the situation and change the situation, but at least Lu Qian can reduce the impact.

Therefore, this further strengthened Lu Qian's decision. His departure can weaken the influence of off-court factors to a certain extent and encourage the audience to concentrate more.

The impact is relatively limited, but it is better than nothing.

And, just kidding —

Lu Qian himself has watched the movie more than once. Instead of wasting a seat in the movie theater, it is better to give it to an audience who has not seen it but is interested.

Including the actors of the movie.

Due to various reasons, the post-production of "City of Stars Falling" has not been fully completed, so Gao Silin and the others have not seen the full version of the movie so far.

This time in Lanxia, ​​they, like all audience and judges, saw this work for the first time. Even though Lu Qian emphasized that this is not the final version, expectations and curiosity are still rising. Their joy and excitement, Compared with the audience, it is not inferior at all.

Although they have experienced the entire shooting process in the crew, it is still difficult to imagine what those scenes will look like when they are pieced together.

finally!

Today, they were finally able to see the "Blue Summer Film Festival Edition".

There is no need for Lu Qian, a "spoiler", to attend this party.

So, after UU read the book www.uukanshu.com on the red carpet, Lu Qian turned around and left.

It just so happens that Lu Qian can watch a movie.

When I came to Lanxia this year, the film festival was coming to an end, so that Lu Qian had no chance to watch the film at all; after the film festival ended, he had no time to participate in the Seca Film Festival, so he had to return to Blue Whale Studio to continue post-production work immediately.

Obviously, this is not the trip to the film festival that Lu Qian hoped for. If he went to the film festival but didn't watch the movie, but just stood on the red carpet and posed, it would be a real pity.

So, this afternoon may be the only chance to watch a movie.

What's more, Lu Qian is also very much looking forward to this year's Blue Summer Film Festival with frequent masterpieces.

Especially immersed in the creation of a work for too long, derailed and disconnected from the world, often produces a sense of disconnection in an isolated island. Lu Qian needs to reconnect with the world through other film works, and may also be able to contribute to the Post-work on "Starfall" provided some inspiration.

He needs such a space, and also needs such a "collision".
