At this point in the movie "The Wrong Ride", the benefits of literary and artistic films are revealed.
In fact, to put it bluntly, there is a reason why many popcorn movies are not favored by film critics. This is because commercial popcorn movies have a characteristic, that is, they do not ask for deep explanations!
It can be said that it does not require any brain use, and basically everyone will be satisfied after watching it once.
However, literary and artistic films, well made, are like a cup of bitter tea, which tastes bitter at first but has endless aftertaste.
That's what "Wrong Ride" is like.
Many fans of this movie said that it seems to have a very cliché plot, but the more you interpret it and think about it, you will find that the movie does not seem to be that simple.
There are a thousand Hamlets in the hearts of a thousand people.
A good movie can also allow different viewers to interpret different things.
Someone interpreted the title of the film "The Wrong Ride".
“The title of the movie is very strange. I didn’t understand its meaning at first glance, but after watching it, I already understood the title!
Wrong ride, who got the wrong ride?
Uncle Dumb got on the wrong bus? He shouldn't have chosen this child in the first place? Shouldn't he have raised A Mei? Shouldn't he have allowed A Mei to sing?
Amei got on the wrong bus? Shouldn't she have met Uncle Mute? Shouldn't she have left her family to sing in order to buy a house for Uncle Mute? Shouldn't she have not gone home to visit Uncle Mute for the sake of her singing career?
Did the composer get on the wrong train? Shouldn't he give up on love because he couldn't give Ami a piece of the sky?
Maybe, all, maybe none.
We took the wrong train and left our loved ones for our so-called dreams, wandering in distant foreign lands. We left our beloved family members in our hometown, leaving them with endless expectations and long-lasting thoughts. Busyness is the most common thing we do.
Excuse, we always think that the hard work is to give our family a better life in the future, but have our relatives waited so long?
In fact, each of us got on the wrong bus. We always thought that by working hard while we were young, we would have plenty of time to spend with our parents in the future. However, we ignored our parents, who had turned gray at some point.
I remembered what a friend once told me. He said, "Every time he left home, his mother would send him to the station and she would cry." Later, he returned to his hometown to work, married a wife and had children by his parents' side.
I can’t forget the sadness and loss of my parents’ farewells every time we left home. Facing the empty house, my heart felt empty. Did we really take the wrong bus?
Was Uncle Mute wrong? He was right. Sympathy and mercy are his fundamentals as a human being, so he adopted A Mei.
Is Ami wrong? Uncle Dumb's hard work makes us expect Ami to give a minimum of family affection in return. This is the expectation brought about by our traditional moral judgment. However, Ami's betrayal, in the end, when his father finally left with regrets
Perhaps deep down in her heart, she truly felt the sadness of "a child who wants to be raised but cannot be cared for"!
If the behavioral deviation is forced by reality, then the emotional sin is unavoidable. Shi Junmai's new song has been written, and Ami is asked to sing it to everyone who needs love. At the last concert, a song "Wine Dry"
If Selling Nothing expresses all her emotions:
What a familiar voice, it has been with me for many years in wind and rain
Never need to think of it, never forget it
Without heaven there is land, without land there is no home
Without you, where would I be? Without you, where would I be?
The helplessness and sadness are beyond words. Is it repentance? Is it remorse? After walking one step after another, Ami finally realized the most basic thing of human beings - family love. She also realized the collective unconscious "heaven, earth,
Home, and parents."
In the film, every character represents a group of people. Uncle Man represents many fathers who have many unsatisfactory shortcomings, Sister Man represents countless Chinese mothers in suffering, and Uncle Mute represents countless silent mothers.
The father who supports the family, where is Ami? She looks forward to representing thousands of children!"
"The Wrong Ride" may not be a classic film for many people. Perhaps the excessive tragedy in the film makes many people afraid to watch it a second time.
Perhaps the ending in the film is unforgettable, or perhaps the sensational parts are a bit cliched.
But this is an excellent movie.
The box office of "The Wrong Ride" was not as high as expected, but for a literary film, the box office of 48 million on the first day was enough to satisfy people.
Many people even said that there is no audience for literary and artistic films. Just watch "The Wrong Ride" to know.
This may only be considered average in the eyes of some people in the literary and artistic film circles. Perhaps in their arrogant hearts, such a movie that can be easily understood by the public is not artistic enough.
However, the box office performance of "The Wrong Ride" really made those in the literary and artistic film circles jealous.
Why can the movie "The Wrong Ride" achieve such results despite being a literary film?
It grossed more than 50 million yuan on the first day and nearly 400 million yuan in the first week.
Although the reputation has declined, it is still strong at above 8 points.
This is already a record-breaking achievement for a literary film.
At this time, a piece of news came out, which caused public opinion to boil again.
Li Yi's movie "The Truman Show", which received a whopping 420 million yuan in product placement advertising sponsorship, is also a literary film!
After the news came out, countless people immediately went crazy.
Their first reaction was, are you kidding me?
"Is this fake news? Are you kidding me? Do you really think those brand owners are fools?"
"That's bullshit. In order to attract attention these days, there are so many blind reports!"
"The Truman Show? Art movie? 420 million advertising dollars? Are you kidding me?"
But some people think there's nothing wrong with it.
"Isn't "The Wrong Ride" also a literary film? Didn't it also get more than 300 million box office in its first week?"
""The Story of Hachiko" can be considered a literary film, right? Isn't it also a box office smash?"
"You know nothing about art movies!"
This news was really not released by Li Yi. The specific details of how it was revealed were unknown to Li Yi.
After all, there are so many people on the crew, and they are not required to keep everything about the movie secret.
But he didn't expect that the news that "The Truman Show" was a literary film would actually arouse so many people's discussion.
And because this news has not been officially recognized by Li Yi, more fans and media people have come to Li Yi's Weibo to ask whether "The Truman Show" is really an art movie?
Li Yi still responded to these people’s questions on Weibo.
"The concept of commercial films is relative to art films. After all, our films do not have a "literary" category. Therefore, from the perspective of commercial profitability, "The Truman Show" should be a commercial film. After all,
As everyone knows, this movie has a lot of advertising placement!"
