Ideal Entertainment - Chapter 92
Simon Clark commented on “Born to the Sun” and called it an icebreaker for Chinese-language movies to the world.
He did not hesitate to praise Guo Kuang’s shots, and even exaggeratedly referred to them as “the peak of the operation of cold and warm toned lenses.”
He said that among the directors he has watched for so many years, Guo Kuang’s shots are mature and smooth in terms of fineness, color contrast, conversion, etc., without any sense of stagnation, just like tasting a good cup of coffee. Slightly bitter, tasted and faintly sweet.
He highly praised Guo Kuang and the screenwriter for their handling of the ending.
He said: For a long time, almost everyone believed that the jury of film awards had a soft spot for tragedy. But the fact is that most tragedies are more impressive and more thought-provoking than happy endings.
But the tragic and obscure award-winning films selected for a long time have given the industry a wrong impression and perception. As a result, more and more directors are in love with tragedy, and more and more scripts full of regret and dark interrogations appear one after another. In the end, most of the films that participated in the selection, and most of the highlights were these kinds of films, so that such a reciprocating cycle finally gave This is the impression of the public.
The oriental director Guo Kuang is not a fresh face. He has always been accustomed to leaving a gleam of light in the sad darkness, giving people some comfort in the long and cold film.
The same is true of “Born to the Sun”, the rest of the ending is very clever, and it also makes people feel the ray of light falling in the dark.
I have always admired him very much. This time, I finally had the opportunity to write a film review for him.
As for the actors, he wrote like this:
Regardless of language factors, we have always agreed that Asian directors have very delicate emotions, and their shots always have unique and restrained beauty, but it is precisely because they are too restrained-or the actors did not show them under the camera. Enough tension, people can’t feel the hidden meaning under introversion.
Or maybe it’s too restrained, too subtle, and not bold enough.
Some of them are full of feelings and deep meanings that only natives and those who have a deep understanding of Asian culture can understand, so that the audience cannot clearly understand the emotions that the creator wants to express.
This situation is so common that Eastern films always fail to open the door to international awards, nor can they touch the hearts of the jury.
But “Born to the Sun” is not the same. Its subject matter and background are simple and clear, and it can be understood perfectly without any knowledge reserve.
To put it more bluntly, it is more like a life documentary with a plot than a movie.
Recorded the most exciting and most regrettable last period of the protagonist’s life.
When it comes to the movie itself, I have to compliment the starring role of this movie.
A young man from the East, Chu Qiu.
Orientals always seem to be much younger than their actual age. When I always think that he is still a teenager approaching adulthood—someone tells me he is twenty-two years old.
But this does not prevent me from being amazed by him.
Asian actors are very different from those on the European and American sides. European and American actors are more accustomed to performing with body and language, and their eyes are always in close-up or close-up shots.
But Asian actors are not the same. They always have more exaggerated facial expressions, detailed eyes and subtle movement details to show their emotions.
On this point, I must compliment this young man.
He may have looked for a lot of references, or he has watched countless videos for learning.
Chu’s performance perfectly blends Eastern and Western performance skills. On behalf of myself, I said that Chu’s performance can be perfectly integrated into any Western movie without any blunt sense of estrangement.
After watching “Born to the Sun”, I searched for the only movie that Chu has released so far and watched it again. It was not a subject that I could fully understand, but Chu’s performance in it did not violate the harmony in the slightest. of.
An actor who can blend Eastern and Western styles can not find five in contemporary times, even going back up.
I couldn’t bear to recommend him to many of my friends. This oriental actor will definitely shine on the international stage in the future.
I have the most sincere expectations for this.
…
There is a lot of dry stuff in this film review. Simon Clark, a senior film critic, has made a very thorough evaluation of “Born to the Sun” from the aspects of screenwriter, director, actor and even photography framing, and made many comparisons in the past. , Pointed out some shortcomings, but looking at it as a whole, the various praise words almost blinded others.
In general, this film critic has a central idea throughout the story: it is impossible to tolerate this film not being awarded!
Chu Qiu’s fans were flattered by this film review, completely unbelievable.
For a star-chaser, what is more proud and exciting for them than their idols’ achievements and growth?
Fans in China rejoiced, rushed to tell, and shared this film review on major platform portals. The sunspots under the hot search can no longer affect them at all!
With actual results in hand, what use is there for the sunspots to jump again!
What is the best way to support idols!
Spend money! Spend money for him!
How to spend it?
Of course, I was looking for a way to get the movie to be released in China to give him a box office!
If there is really no way to pass the review in China, then desperately gain popularity and increase market value for them!
Nowadays, what determines the pay of actors is not the acting skills, but the market value and appeal.
Upon seeing the popularity, the film crew of “Jianghu” immediately hit the iron and released the news that the preparation of the Blu-ray disc is completed, and it will be sold directly on the official website at 8 pm domestic time on the evening of the awards at the Yar Film Festival. The first thousand shots were taken. Fans will come with a set of posters autographed by all the actors, and fans who will pay after a thousand will be given a printed signed poster. As for whose signed poster, it will be randomly assigned.
Excited fans rushed to the bottom of this news, and they were really good at making money while they were waiting for that day with anticipation.
On that day, Zhang Dali talked with director Adams from outside, and when he came back, he first told Chu Qiu that the audition was not in a hurry. The script had just decided on the characters and rough directions before starting production. Adams said that when all the preparations are completed, it is estimated that there will be at least a small amount of work. For half a year, I first contacted Chu Qiu and hoped that he could reserve the next schedule first-after all, Chu Qiu’s current schedule is already full and the schedule will be in the first half of next year.
“Said it was an audition, I think Adams thinks it must be you, otherwise he won’t be allowed to stay on schedule.”
While talking, Mr. Dali took out a stack of posters of Chu Qiu’s solo stills of “Journey to the Rivers and Lakes”, and placed them next to Chu Qiu who looked dazed.
“Sign it.” Mr. Zhang Dali handed out a signature pen, ignored Chu Qiu’s horrified eyes, and continued to stab the knife, “This is only one-twentieth.”
Chu Qiu: “…”
I am obviously only a supporting role.
After signing fifty names, Chu Qiu shook his wrist and glanced at the stack of posters that Zhang Dali moved back again, and fell on the bed, wanting to be passive for the first time.
Zhang Dali poured a glass of water and looked at Chu Qiu who took out his cell phone and was sending a message with Qi Tianrui, and raised his eyebrows: “Have you ever signed this before?”
Chu Qiu shook his head.
He hadn’t really signed this before. Except for the unavoidable signing of a few when the fans picked up the plane, Chu Qiu was basically insulated from this kind of poster signing activity.
To say why, of course it is because of printing!
Obviously, Zhou Yixing didn’t expect that he would be in trouble during the vacation, crying for his father and mother in the group, and asked Zhou Yiyue to sign for him.
Zhou Yixing claimed that he still had a life-long marriage event to be busy with, and had no time to sign.
But he had time to engrave three ugly carrot seals, rubbing a row of red, blue and black ink pads, and signing a PIA and a seal.
The group praises Zhou Yixing for being the idol of the group’s favorite fan, and it is very worthy of praise.
Zhang Zi’s carving is really ugly, his eyes are so hot, he hasn’t inherited the knife skills of his brother Niucha at all.
Zhou Yiyue was tricked into the house by his brother, and only helped his brother to re-engrave three chapters. Turning around, Zhou Yixing posted Zhou Yiyue, who was running to help, and Qi Tianrui, who was innocently lying on the gun, on Weibo, and his words were incomparably cracked.
To be precise, Zhou Yiyue and the five cats and one dog he brought were hanging.
Because Zhou Yixing’s signed PIA Zhangzi was drying on the poster, the four cats of Qi Tianrui and Chu Qiu and one dog and one cat of Zhou Yiyue stepped on a pile of red, blue and black paw prints.
Zhou Yixing: What a good thing you guys have done! ! ! @周熠月@祁天瑞 Cangtian! O earth! ! [Cry big][Cry big][Cry big][Picture]
Fans have said that it’s okay to coax coaxing, and posters with meow paws and dog paws Xiaomeihua are also rare for us.
Looking at such comments, Zhou Yixing threw the carrot seal carved by Zhou Yiyue aside, picked up the four cubs lying on the bed, took their paws with black ink, and printed them on the poster very simply under his signature.
“Hey, it’s pretty cute.” Zhou Yixing admired his poster with delight.
The four cubs of Qi Tianrui’s family had an expression of “you are happy,” and he didn’t even bother to move if he tossed about it.
Chu Qiu had just signed the fifty posters of the second wave, and when he was resting in the middle, he saw Zhou Yixing’s signature with cat paw print, a little envious.
He posted cute words in the group as a compliment, then took back the phone and continued to fight.
“What is it?” Zhang Dali suddenly said while sitting on the side, “Qi Tianrui asked me to catch a cat back?”
Chu Qiu was taken aback, thinking of the news he had just sent in the group, and blinked lightly.
Then he typed on the keyboard in Zhang Dali with a straight face, and at a glance, he was sure that he was at the time of Qi Tianrui, and gave Zhang Dali the stack of posters that had been signed in front of him.
The news of Zhang Dali hadn’t been sent out, but was interrupted by the poster that Chu Qiu suddenly handed over.
“Quite fast?” He was stunned, put his phone aside, and after passing a new stack of posters to Chu Qiu, he checked whether there were any missing signatures in the stack. “There are nine hundred more. Keep going. “
Chu Qiu took the stack of posters and glanced at the mobile phone that Zhang Dali had forgotten to aside.
The pen was turned twice in his hand, and Chu Qiu bends the corner of his mouth slightly and responded softly.
The author has something to say: Zhang Dali: The child’s wings are stiff, and his elbows are beginning to turn outward…[Old mother sigh.jpg]
Qi Tianrui: Who is the foreigner? I am clearly inside!
