The Director of Music Department - Chapter 1413
“The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” ended its premiere amidst applause.
But the applause continued.
It can be seen that this movie is indeed worthy of everyone’s applause.
Even if it was Wang Yifan, in fact, at this time, he had to admit that Jack Curtis was not able to achieve what he has achieved today.
Because “The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” can be said to be a relatively simple story, but in the hands of Jack Curtis, it is endlessly memorable.
This is the power of a director.
In fact, the plot of most movies is very simple to sum up, but often a powerful director can make flowers.
On the contrary, some poor directors, even if the story is very good, but the result is not too shit!
“Awesome, too amazing!” Chen Shaojun couldn’t help but exclaimed.
However, Wang Yifan couldn’t help but shook his head and said: “Normal, tens of billions of directors are naturally unique.”
Many literary film directors look down on commercial film directors, but they don’t know that real commercial films are never simpler than literary films.
For example, “The Sixth Sense of Supernatural”, this movie is actually not difficult to see. This is a commercial movie, but would you dare to say that this movie is easy to make?
“The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” can be said that in this movie, we can also see the ambition of Jack Curtis.
This movie can be said to be a commercial movie, but in the same way, this movie will not be reduced to a popcorn movie.
“Congratulations, you made a good movie!” Wang Yifan stepped forward and congratulated.
“Haha, Wang, it should be said that Tongxi is right. If it weren’t for the story you provided, there wouldn’t be this movie!” It can be seen that Jack Curtis is really satisfied with this movie!
This movie can actually be a trick to some extent.
Yes, first of all, the subject matter.
The seemingly supernatural movies are shortcomings and niche.
But in fact, there has never been any subject matter that is absolutely niche.
Everything is relative.
Compared with those real supernatural thriller movies, it can indeed be said to be a minority.
But “The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” is not like that.
This movie is nothing more than a supernatural cloak, but it actually tells a story about family and communication.
It is because we ordinary people have an innate fear of life. This kind of fear is embodied in the movie as fear of unknowable ghosts, but in real life it can be extended to fear of unknown or mysterious things. This emotion has both a thrilling complex and a hopeful and deterring attraction. Perhaps it is precisely because of the complex psychology of horror and curiosity that we have a natural special habit for such ghostly films. Whenever a movie is called horror, it will always make people fascinated and can’t help it.
This is the advantage and advantage of using spiritual materials.
But it is also a disadvantage.
Wang Yifan asked with a smile: “Have you ever thought of winning this movie for awards?”
In the past life, “The Sixth Sense of Spirituality” has gained public praise, and it can be regarded as universally praised.
But in fact, this movie is also in awards. Although there are nominations, including Golden Globes, Oscars, etc., but the result is empty-handed.
The reason is the so-called artistry!
Yes, in the eyes of arrogant film critics, “The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” is too successful commercially, so to be honest, film critics have never really spoken about art.
“The audience reputation of “The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” will be very good, but because of this, it is difficult for this movie to win awards!” Jack Curtis knows some Hollywood rules too well.
Perhaps there has been a situation where both business and art are equally important.
But in fact, with the outbreak of the film market, the market has matured more and more.
After that, looking at the award-winning movies, especially the Oscars for Best Picture, in fact, you will find that it has been difficult to get their affirmation for those with high commercial box office.
Of course, there are exceptions, such as “Titanic.” It’s not that no one said that this movie has no artistic quality at all, but because the box office of this movie is too high and too high.
Therefore, even Oscar had to give in in the end.
The “Sixth Sense of Supernatural” may be helpful to the box office in terms of themes, but it did not help at all for the awards. On the contrary, it has a counterproductive effect.
Because science fiction and supernatural movies have always been regarded as insulators with art awards!
Wang Yifan nodded.
At this time, Jack Curtis was going to greet other guests, so he left.
Chen Shaojun on the side asked with some incomprehension: “With the position of Jack Curtis, if this movie is to promote public relations, it shouldn’t be difficult to get a few Oscars?”
Wang Yifan shook his head and said, “It’s really not like this.”
Jack Curtis’s achievements in commercial films will not only help him in awards such as Oscars, but will also hinder him.
Unless Jack Curtis is really willing to make a real literary film, otherwise, Jack Curtis’s fame will still hinder him from winning!
At this time, two film critics happened to be discussing the artistry of this film.
A film critic said: “”The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” possesses many attributes of an excellent commercial film-the plot and the reversal, the thrilling and exciting plot, the human nature analysis that the film itself should have, but it is a pity that it is anticlimactic.”
Another film critic also said: “Yes, because the doctor’s reversal made it an excellent commercial film. Unfortunately, after the director pierced the ghostly window paper, without the support of reality, it is hard to say that it has artistic value at all! ”
“More than that, and the emotional drive of the movie began to decline after the truth of the story became clear. That is, the doctor admitted that the little boy could indeed see the evil things. After the movie uncovered the evil, there was no sense of mystery, and it was created before. The horror of the movie has diminished a lot. Although in the end the doctor’s death reversal added to the film a lot, and a little remedy for the broken window paper, the anticlimactic problem is still obvious.”
“The key is, what does the director want to express? A film is exciting enough to become a good commercial film; a film with profound inspiring significance will become a good art film; if a film has both, then It will become a classic in history. “The Sixth Sense of Supernatural” may be exciting enough, but it doesn’t have much enlightening significance.”
“If the director finally exposes the doctor and those ghostly things as reflections of the little boy’s mind, and leaves a developmental ending at the end of the movie, whether what the little boy sees is true or not, let the audience experience it for themselves. Come, I didn’t pierce the window paper, and I won’t break the work, and it will bring the movie to a higher level.”
