Gangster movie (Part 1)

During the Spring Festival, the winner has been decided from the first morning!

It’s not that other movies are too bad, but that “The Wandering Earth” is too good!

Whether in terms of reputation or other aspects, "The Wandering Earth" is obviously much higher than other competitors during the same period.

Then, as expected, the first day was 320 million, the next day was 410 million, and then the skyrocketed, 450 million, 460 million, 502 million, 460 million...

In the seven days of the Spring Festival, 2.622 billion yuan was won...

It accounts for more than 60% of the overall market!

After the Spring Festival, the box office harvesting rate remains unabated, and the box office growth rate of more than 200 million yuan will continue to maintain a single day.

15 days after release, winning 4.8 billion box office...

Then "Alita", "Training the Dragon 3", "Green Book", and "Captain Marvel" were released one after another...

"The Wandering Earth" has frozen its box office at 5.3 billion...

Ranked second in film history, becoming the third film in Chinese film history to enter the 5 billion club - "Wolf Warrior 2", "Detective Chinatown 2", "The Wandering Earth"...

All-Tao Ma is produced by Orange!

In early March, "Alita" was released, and James Cameron came to China to promote...

They came for the box office sales!

However, the card god's card is big enough, and Lu Xiaoran and Guo Fan have all gone.

A truck driver became a world-renowned director?

The starting point is a short film!

He wrote and directed "Alien Origins" and fooled a $30,000 investment from a group of dentist friends.

Of course, due to insufficient funds, Cameron could only shoot the science fiction blockbuster in his mind into a 12-minute short film.

This short film became his stepping stone to get into the film industry.

He gave the short film to Roger Coleman, the owner of the B-level film company New World Films. Coleman admired the props and lighting scenes of the short film's special effects, and then Cameron became the model of the company.

Coleman is also a science and engineering graduate. He is not only a bit of details, but also likes to attract talented and enthusiastic young people. His low-cost production is the starting point for many Hollywood big names, including Coppola, Scorsese, Long Howard, Jack Nicholson and others.

Roger Coleman, if you want to talk about Bole, he should be the most awesome Bole in the entire Hollywood film history!

Take a look, even if it is an extra, it can't be so humble...

Let me tell you, before "Alita" was released, what did a bunch of people brag about "Alita" beat "The Wandering Earth"...

There is a strange problem. "The Wandering Earth" has almost received the support of most movie fans. It has set a new height for domestic science fiction movies in terms of reputation and box office. However, there are still a group of people who are tirelessly shaking "The Wandering Earth", just like "The Wandering Earth" selling so much in China that he made his father die!

It may be a bit too much to say this. There are indeed a group of fans who are not interested in science fiction. "The Wandering Earth" did not meet their expectations, so it gave a general evaluation.

But there are also a group of herds, foreign slaves, and kneeling tribes. They are not as destined to be foreigners, but they are sick from foreigners and are shameless of China. When they see the Chinese around them standing, they will shout at the top of their lungs why don’t you kneel down to foreigners?

If China makes a little progress, they will spare no effort to discredit it.

As for those who collect money and do business, what do you say?

Some people charge money and some people charge money to praise it!

Now, God of Ka has personally taken action to clean up "The Wandering Earth"!

Unfortunately, "Alita" is not very good...

Such exquisite special effects and details completely beat "The Wandering Earth". Unfortunately, it talks about a clichéd love - the law of dead boyfriend!

...

Lao Lu has made public appearances many times recently.

"New World" is coming!

I have to promote my own movies.

"New World" is a gangster film.

What is a gangster movie?

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are grudges.

How much material does the children of the world provide for gangster movies?

How many people are the lame boss and the tragic hero?

When it comes to gangster films, "The Godfather" is definitely the number one!

"The Godfather" is the best movie in film history in the minds of many directors, and uses exquisite writing to describe the family grievances of the Mafia's heyday.

Although the film has a huge structure, complex plot and numerous characters, director Coppola handles the entire film in an orderly and exciting manner. It is an epic of gangsters, one of the greatest gangster movies in film history, and is known as the Bible of men.

By the way, last year's Ten Questions Teacher Cui, Liu Ye mentioned the "Godfather" series, saying, "Have you seen the movie "Godfather"? It describes the story of the Italian gang family. Which Italian black gang "has the right seat" to find Copola to mess with it?"

Haha, there are really some slaughter families looking for Coppola!

Back then, the film "The Godfather" started filming, and Joseph Colombo, the leader of the Colombo family, one of the five major criminal families in New York, and his organization "The Federation of Italian and American Citizenship Rights" began a protest movement, destroying film shooting and stealing photography equipment. Producer Robert Evans recorded in his autobiography that Colombo threatened him and his family and asked him to go home, leaving a threatening note in his car: Stop the plane immediately, otherwise...

Later, producer Albert Raddy negotiated with Colombo on behalf of Paramount to explain to them that the film would not portray all Italian Americans as gangsters;

Instead, the film presents a balanced perspective of the crime world necessary for a film.

The two sides finally reached an agreement, and Radi agreed to hide the words "Mafia" and "Sicily Mafia" in the movie script, so that the film was successfully filmed in "Little Italy" and other places, one of the places where the mafia gathered in New York...

Liu Ye should really read more movie anecdotes...

Can't give another example?

I have to prove myself with the Godfather...

OK, back to the big series of gangster films, after "The Godfather", gangster films became popular. Excellent works such as "The Past of America", "Good Guy", "Vulgar", "Extremely Evil and Not-Infernal Affairs" emerged one after another. Directors such as Martin Scorsese, Takeshi Kitano, Johnny Wu, and Johnnie To have gained a foothold in the world film industry with their violent aesthetics.

Japanese Benzene, including the current Korean movies, gangster movies have always been an important branch type!

Takeshi Kitano won the Golden Lion Award for "Firefire" - "Firefire" uses beautiful and dazzling flowers and burning fire to symbolize love and violence, and reflect the themes of life and death!

Hong Kong movies themselves have a close relationship with blackness, "The True Color of Heroes", "Pohao", "The Underworld"...

There are more Korean movies and gangster movies, such as "The War with the Criminals", "The Insider", and "Asura" are all typical representatives.

Let me briefly talk about Korean gangster movies. They are very brave and fierce, fierce and bloody, full of hostility. Whether it is hand-to-hand combat or gunfight, they are fierce and cruel, and they are bloody when they move. They especially like to describe the struggles and tear of human nature, and the digging of the characters' inner hearts is delicate and layered, and the individual's psychological state is often closely related to the social environment...

The overall narrative of "New World" refers to "Infernal Affairs", but in terms of character creation, of course, it follows the path of Korean gangster films!

The movie is scheduled to be released on March 15th, and "Captain Marvel" is released for a week...

This schedule is not very good, but it is not bad either - there are not many particularly powerful movies in the same schedule.

Before the release, Lu Xiaoran took Gu Tianfeng to "Old Friends Unprepared" together...

After the launch of "Old Friends Unprepared" has always been very popular, especially after the hit "The Wandering Earth", Wu Mengda became popular, which has led to "Old Friends Unprepared"...

What does it mean to become popular?

Let me put it this way, before "The Wandering Earth", Uncle Da took a movie, regardless of the size of the character, the salary was 800,000 yuan. After "The Wandering Earth", there was no 3 million yuan for talks!
Chapter completed!
