Disaster Artist

So, is that all there is to it? Four girls, enter the party singing loudly, and then enter the party's narrative mode?

No no no, of course not—

Lu Qian once again used his imagination and talent to push the film's light and shadow charm to a new level. Just when everyone thought the party chapter should end here, the first scene of the film brought the film to a whole new level in an unimaginable way. The audio-visual experience on the big screen is vividly displayed.

Mi Yang and his friends arrived at the party, and then a series of montages showed the tip of the iceberg of Vanity Fair—

Talking and laughing, hypocrisy and submissiveness, interlacing with cups of wine, and behind-the-scenes transactions.

Everyone—literally everyone, is a commodity in the eyes of others, a commodity that can be traded, bought and sold, and negotiated.

The scene of the luxurious party is dazzling, the camera rotates rapidly around Mi Yang, and the scene of the party is slowly laid out in the form of sub-cameras. The criss-crossing splendor is really overwhelming. unfolded in the mind.

Stunning, gorgeous, magical, simply unimaginable, it is impossible to move your eyes away.

It turns out that the movie can still be opened like this—

For a long time, directors have always emphasized that movies are not just about stories. Otherwise, what is the difference between movies and novels and episodes? Screenwriting is important, and a good story is also important, but for movies, it is not the most important thing, what really matters is the way the director presents the story and tells the story.

But how should this be understood?

For the general public, they can understand these words, but it is difficult to truly understand them. Every time they go to the cinema to watch a movie, it is inevitable to judge whether it is good or bad based on the story and the script. "The plot is full of holes", and so on.

Now, Lu Qian is using "movie language" to present—

How to show the plot with the camera without telling the story.

No narration, no event, no dialogue, no design, just lock Mi Yang firmly, and follow Mi Yang's footsteps in circles in the party, a magnificent but wonderful picture unfolds like this, Let people see a corner of the Vanity Fair party.

Movies are about stories, but not just about stories.

Mi Yang tried and worked hard, but failed in the end. She tried to blend into the party, flattered and flattered each other, and opened up the situation for herself. The dots disappeared, and even the smiles became plastic.

Mi Yang rushed into the bathroom in desperation, trying to escape a man's hands, looking at his own projection in the mirror, but showing a little daze, the melody also slowed down, and settled down bit by bit, between notes and notes. You can feel the loneliness and loneliness behind the prosperity.

"... Is someone in the vast sea of ​​people the only one in your eyes? The world keeps spinning, and your eyes follow you. Can you find your own value somewhere in the world, a corner waiting for me to discover?"

Mi Yang lowered his eyelids, took a deep breath, turned and left the bathroom.

The melody has evolved into an adagio, like a feline slowly moving forward, as light as a feather, landing silently, and moving forward gently with Mi Yang's footsteps.

The world also slowed down following the melody. All movements, expressions, and gestures all slowed down ten times. Only Mi Yang walked through the crowded and noisy crowd like a ghost, staying out of the crowd. Those intimacy and those lights have nothing to do with her.

That kind of incompatibility just overflowed in the camera lens.

However, the melody never stops—

Not only did it not stop, but it was also gradually accelerating, little by little, becoming brisk again, noisy again, noisy again.

Mi Yang is like a magician. Wherever she passes, those people and scenes all return to their original speed. Every step can make the melody and rhythm slowly climb. From indoors to outdoors, you can see snowflakes flying all over the sky. , A magnificent world unfolds before your eyes.

Lanchuan, is it snowing?

The entire audience was full of question marks:? ? ?

As far as I can remember, it has never snowed in Lanchuan. Even in the coldest winter, the city is still filled with golden sunshine and lazy heat waves. Obviously, snowflakes are the only "strange things" that cannot be seen in this city. Scenes”, instead of land, movies can satisfy all the fantasies of city dwellers.

Wait, fantasy?

Perhaps, this is just a dream. From the magical moment of Mi Yang walking through the static crowd to the splendor of Lanchuan’s snowy sky, everything proves that this is a form of emotional expression. The former represents loneliness and alienation, and the latter represents prosperity and harmony. Unreal, the magic of cinema lights up the big screen.

However, at this moment, the audience has no time to think about it carefully. In a series of dense drumbeats, they are just caught in the storm.

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom.

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom!

Climb steadily!

The camera flashes over Mi Yang, who is standing by the swimming pool, lifts it up slightly, and then you can see a man on the second floor, standing on the edge in a suit and leather shoes—

Freeze. Smile.

Then, one turned and one jumped.

Huh!

The audience exclaimed.

The man in the suit rolled and turned as if standing on a three-meter springboard, and jumped into the swimming pool like this. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Crash!

A splash of water!

The camera follows the man in the suit soaring into the air, rising, jumping, falling...into the water.

boom!

The lens also sank to the bottom of the water, all the colors disappeared, and fell into a clear blue.

In a very, very short moment, all the sound disappeared, as if people sank into the water with the camera, enjoying a short moment of tranquility, and the music and noise all became distant and blocked from the surface of the water.

Crash!

The camera and the man in the suit emerged from the water together, at this moment—

The melody, singing, and rhythm were all played, and they were pushed directly from one point to ten points, and the roaring sound erupted mightily, bursting on the eardrums.

"Someone in the vast sea of ​​people, maybe the one you are waiting for, can finally help you chase your dreams..."

The camera, standing in the middle of the pool, begins to spin.

People are dancing, people are singing, people are queuing up, people are jumping into the swimming pool one by one, and the water is constantly splashing.

Groups of people surrounded the swimming pool, spread out layer by layer, and the positions were staggered. All the spaces were filled in an orderly manner, but they extended toward the end of the line of sight in a uniform manner, filling the entire party scene. It's full, and at the same time, you can feel the majestic momentum.

With colorful colors, scattered teams, gorgeous lights, and figures leaping up and down into the swimming pool, the world is blooming in front of you.

Everyone sang to their heart's content, sang in unison, and expressed their inner joy and joy with their voices and bodies, but they could no longer see Mi Yang's figure. The splendor exploded and bloomed in clusters like this.

Heartbreakingly beautiful.
