Chapter 584 I dont want to talk to you here, I want to listen to others talking about you!
Life is always full of surprises.
The same is true in movies.
For example, someone suddenly became rich overnight and won the lottery! Then he shouted excitedly and fainted!
The simplicity of the villagers is also surprising.
After the man fainted, everyone lifted him up. Someone ran into the cinema and shouted loudly, "Someone has won the lottery."
As a result, everyone has become a mass eater, and even movies can no longer attract them. After all, compared with wealth, movies have always been just a source of entertainment for them.
The musical melody of the movie becomes exciting and enjoyable.
Well, actually starting from my memories, the melody of music is always so pleasant.
An interesting plot happened.
At the qualification examination site, the old man Alfredo also came to take the exam with Duoduo and the others.
As a result, Alfredo, who once claimed to be a fool and an idiot, was really scratched by the test questions!
He even used his fingers to complete calculations, looking more like a child than an adult.
Duoduo, however, moved his pen as fast as he could and quickly completed his test paper.
Alfredo really couldn't do it. He wanted Duoduo to help him, but Duoduo covered the test paper when he poked his head to peek at Duoduo's test paper.
This made Alfredo even more helpless. He really couldn't do it, he really couldn't!
The audience in the theater couldn't help laughing at this scene.
In particular, Alfredo wanted to peek at the test paper of the child next to him, but the other party found out and directly blocked him from seeing, which made people even more hilarious.
Duoduo is even more happy.
Alfredo said that Duoduo was ungrateful, but he really couldn't count on it. He was so anxious that he could only bang his head on the table!
Alfredo persevered. After all, he was only familiar with Duoduo here, and he still hoped that Duoduo could help him.
How could the little clever guy miss such a good opportunity? So he took the opportunity to make an exchange. He gave Alfredo a cheat sheet and asked Alfredo to teach him how to play movies as a condition of calling.
Alfredo had no choice but to agree!
Duoduo and Alfredo completed the deal, Duoduo successfully made Alfredo pass the exam, and Alfredo did not break his promise. He began to teach Duoduo how to show movies!
The two stayed together every day, and their relationship became closer and closer. Through Alfredo's daily teachings, Duoduo also understood that the projectionist was more than just cool as he imagined.
The projectionist is lonely. Alfredo works boringly day after day without any holidays, because he is the only projectionist working here. He gives up his time and carries the spiritual entertainment sustenance of the entire town.
The priest still has to "review" every time a new movie is released, and only he can see the "kissing" scene. Whenever it appears, he will ring the bell and let Alfredo cut it!
Cinemas are still the only place of entertainment for villagers. When they see horrific scenes, they can’t help but cover their eyes...
In order to allow Duoduo to reach the projector, Alfredo specially made a wooden stool for Duoduo to stand on.
Parting is always inevitable, Duoduo's classmates are leaving here, and his father is going to work in Germany.
And life is like this, there is laughter and there is inevitably crying.
Duoduo's mother learned that her husband had passed away, and the official notified the widow to register for pension benefits.
When I came out after signing, my mother kept crying. Duoduo and her mother were walking home, with devastated streets on both sides.
The horror of war not only makes people lose their homes, but also separates their loved ones.
Sadness is not the main theme of this movie, at least, not in Duoduo's childhood.
Sometimes it is very simple to make people forget their sadness. It may only take a comedy movie to make people forget their troubles.
No matter what your mood is in a movie theater, you can always be infected by the movie and the people around you while watching the movie. It will sweep away the haze, sweep away the worries, and laugh wildly.
This comedy movie is very popular among villagers. The cinema is always overcrowded, and quite a few people stay away because they cannot enter the theater.
Even though it was getting very late, they still blocked the door.
In fact, domestic movie fans and media people have discovered that the pace of this "Cinema Paradiso" is really very slow. The story that is told in detail can be said to not have too many explosive points and no big scenes!
This kind of movie is indeed not suitable for the general public, nor is it for the general public.
But don't forget, this is the Venice Film Festival, and every audience present can't help but be moved by this movie.
No matter who they are, regardless of nationality, every filmmaker grew up watching movies, without exception!
Maybe the movie they watched was different, maybe the way they watched it was different, and the environment was different, but many people were aroused by this movie to have the same original feeling of watching the movie.
For example, movie fans, media people, and directors in China can't help but recall the first touching moments of watching movies as children.
Maybe in a certain cinema, maybe in an open-air cinema, maybe the movies you watch are different, but the same thing is that you can feel the joy, anger, sadness, or whatever the movie brings.
It’s fun!
Many people gathered outside the cinema, but the cinema could not accommodate so many people.
This makes people who have not seen the movie reluctant to leave.
Alfredo stood on the second floor and said to Duoduo with a smile: "Let's let these poor people see the movie!"
Duoduo asked curiously: "Okay, but what should we do?"
Alfredo smiled proudly and said: "Even if you don't trust me, you should believe what you see!"
Alfredo operated the movie projector, slowly moving the movie screen.
Let Duoduo see a magical scene, the picture of the movie appeared on the wall outside, so that everyone can watch the movie outside!
The whole village was shocked, and all the spectators stared at the magical wall.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Someone opened the door from the second floor and came out, but everyone rushed back.
The audience shouted again: "Alfredo, there is no sound!"
Alfredo asked Duoduo: "Should we make them happy?"
Duoduo smiled and nodded: "Yes!"
Alfredo took out the speaker that played the sound and put it on the balcony on the second floor. In this way, the movie had pictures and sounds.
Looking at the people below laughing wildly, Alfredo and Duoduo could feel people's happiness.
And this is also their happiness!
What is extremely ironic is that the priest saw this scene and he seemed very angry. However, when everyone thought he was angry with Alfredo for showing the movie outdoors on his own initiative, the priest actually told the administrator, "Charge half price!"
This can be said to be similar to "getting extra money".
Yes, the cinema belongs to the church, so there is nothing wrong with charging money for selling tickets, right?
But it gives people an inexplicable sense of joy when they look at it!
Unfortunately, the villagers were obviously unwilling to buy it. They shouted that the square belongs to everyone!
As a result, the madman who appeared before was sleeping on a stone tablet high up. When he heard this, he immediately got up and shouted: "No, the square is mine! Stop making such a joke, you are simply making me angry!"
Of course, this is just a joke to the villagers.
However, at this moment, the picture suddenly changed. Alfredo was shocked and inexplicable. The movie projector burned. To be precise, the film burned!
Everyone ran away in fear, and soon the huge square was deserted, and the audience in the cinema also ran out. Only he, Alfredo, ran back and kept putting out the fire, like that.
Yu's instinctive rescue was to save the career he had loved all his life.
Alfredo was trapped in the fire and his life was in danger; everyone ran out desperately, but Duoduo, who was still a child, risked the danger and rushed into the fire in the opposite direction, looking for Alfredo. At that moment, he wanted to use his thin
With his body, he dragged the old man who was unconscious and injured. But he was too small and couldn't drag him. He was so anxious that he cried for help, but he didn't abandon Alfredo.
The movie theater burned down, and Alfredo lost his eyes and his job in the fire!
Many villagers stood in front of the burned-out Cinema Paradiso, sighing in sympathy, "Poor Alfredo!"
The priest was also a little sad: "What should we do? We have no entertainment anymore! Where can we get the money to rebuild? Who has such money to rebuild?"
At this time, the man who won the lottery took over the theater, renovated it, gave it a brand new look, and introduced new equipment to make it less likely that the film would catch fire again.
Xiao Duoduo also learned from Alfredo and became a projectionist, which seemed like a new era was coming.
In fact, the burned down theater and the rebuilt theater are not metaphors for the past of an era and the coming of a new era?
Because the dilapidated Cinema Paradiso was originally controlled by the church, even the content shown had to be censored by the priest. In the film, desire was condemned by the priest, and all kissing and intimate scenes were banned. Projectionist Alfredo followed
The priest's ringtone took out the scissors and cut out these "restricted" scenes one by one.
After the businessman rebuilt the cinema, it was obvious that the cinema would no longer belong to the church! Instead, it had evolved into a normal business.
Alfredo lost his eyes and his job, but he got another continuation of his life - Little Duoduo carried all the rest of his life.
Duoduo put on a small suit and tie and became the new projectionist!
However, Hollywood blockbusters swept in, and none of them were cut. The delicate bodies of Hollywood actresses bloomed on the screen time and time again. People off the screen bowed their heads, and their desire reached the boiling point across the screen.
Even the priest couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
And this scene also touched many people's minds, because it seemed like this was the golden age of Cinema Paradiso, but in fact it was also the beginning of its complete degeneration. Because desire (harmony) completely evolved into pleasure. Castration and censorship were vented and
Pleasure substitution, from confinement to another extreme.
Alfredo came to the screening room with the support of his wife. He came to see Duoduo.
A big hug and a small hug! It seems to be handing over and continuing.
Alfredo asked with concern: "How is studying?"
Duoduo replied: "Very good, but I'm working now, so I don't need to go to school, right?"
After hearing this, Alfredo shook his head and said: "No, Duoduo, you can't do this. You must go to school, otherwise you will regret it!"
Duoduo asked in confusion: "Why?"
Alfredo replied: "It means, this is not a real job. Now Cinema Paradiso needs you, and you also need Cinema Paradiso, but all this is only temporary, you can't stay like this for the rest of your life! One day you will be exposed to
Something else! Something more important, something quite important!"
Alfredo touched Duoduo's face: "Although I have lost my eyesight, I can see more clearly and see things I haven't seen before!"
"Thank you for saving my life. I will never forget it. Don't look like this..." He patted Duoduo's face, which had grown up.
Yes, when Alfredo's hand touched Duoduo's face, he moved his hand away, and time seemed to pass by for many years in that moment. Duoduo had grown up from a little kid to a great boy!
In fact, for Duoduo, Alfredo played a very important role in Duoduo's happy youth, and at the same time, he became his guide on the way to growth.
Duoduo has grown up! He is still a film projectionist, but he followed Alfredo's advice and did not give up his studies.
He tried to shoot things with a camera. Then, he ushered in his first love, er, should I say secret love, and fell in love with the banker's daughter Elena.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The grown-up Duoduo is no longer the Duoduo he was when he was a child. The innocence and aura of his child have been wiped out by the years. He has learned to be sad, to be stubborn, and to be stubborn.
When he met the girl he liked for the first time, Alfredo persuaded Duoduo that his talent in movies was outstanding and that he should not be trapped in this small town for the rest of his life.
The screening room repeats its work every day.
At the same time, he was not optimistic about him and Elena, which made Duoduo very angry.
So Alfredo told Duoduo a story, a story about waiting.
A story about a soldier and a princess: The king's guard fell deeply in love with the princess. Later, he finally had the opportunity to confess his love to the princess. The princess told the guard that if he could stay under the princess's balcony for a hundred days and nights, the princess would love him.
Maybe 10 days, 20 days... No matter the wind or rain, mosquito bites, the guards insisted on waiting under the princess's balcony. On the 90th day, the guards became weak and pale. All this was seen in the eyes of the princess. But
On the 99th day, the soldier left...
"Don't ask me what I mean, tell me when you have figured it out!" Alfredo said.
Many young people don’t understand it, and in fact, many viewers who are watching the movie for the first time don’t understand it either.
But now it should be clear what this story means: the soldier spent 99 days proving his love, and the last day showed his dignity!
The guard takes 99 steps, leaving 1 step for the princess. If the princess cannot take this step, it means that the princess has no feelings for the guard at all, and being touched will never bring love. The importance of this step is self-evident.
But Duoduo still confessed his love to Elena, and they made a private decision for life in the movie screening room!
As young people, we will never give up easily, even if we know that we are wrong. We should use our own actions to practice this story, even if we know that the ending is sad.
Sure enough, what happened next was a common scenario. Elena's family was wildly opposed. After all, there was a class gap. Duoduo was just a projectionist, while Elena was the daughter of a banker...
In fact, why Alfredo doesn't think highly of Haoduo and Elena is because he knows that the gap between their identities is too big.
Therefore, when Duoduo decided to elope with the girl at night, no one thought that it was Alfredo who stopped them. He did it deliberately and let the lovers go their separate ways. Alfredo, who could not see his eyes, was in his heart.
So awake.
Duoduo, who comes from a poor family, falls in love with a banker's daughter. He can only pursue this love in ninety-nine steps, but in the end he can only terminate it. The last step is to leave his own dignity and dreams.
Maybe this is what Alfredo wants to tell Duoduo!
Duoduo's first love ended when Elena went to Paris to study.
Duoduo went to serve in the military, and Elena went to Paris.
The camera switches again, Duoduo is in the barracks, with only a letter from his mother...
Many people saw this and thought he was broken in love, and Duoduo herself thought so too.
After the military service ended, Duoduo returned to the small town, but unfortunately, things had changed. Alfredo told Duoduo, 'Don't stay here, go to Rome!'
Alfredo, who is blind, persuades Duoduo to leave: "Everyone is looking for their own happy star. Living here day after day, you will think that this is the center of the world and things will not change. But.
If you leave for a year or two and come back, everything will have changed. The thread will be broken, and you will find that everything has changed and everything that belongs to you has disappeared..."
"Life is different from movies, life is much harder, leave here and go to Rome! You are so young, the world is yours! Go out and make a living, don't come back before I die, don't call, don't write letters. I don't want to be here
Talk to you, I want to hear others talk about you! Don't give up because of homesickness, forget about us, work hard, just like you loved the projector when you were a kid, no matter what you end up doing, love it! If you don't achieve anything, don't come back!
"
In fact, Alfredo could not leave the town throughout his life. He did not want Duoduo to continue to repeat his life. He kept guiding Duoduo to leave here. He planted his unfulfilled ideal as a seed in the small town.
On Duoduo.
In real life, if anyone has such a guide who is both a teacher and a friend, then he is really lucky. You and I will come to this world to meet each other only if we are destined. If we have another chance, we can warm each other's lives and leave some
Stories, plant some inspiration.
Duoduo's first love and unrealistic longing are like those films. Alfredo once told Duoduo: They are your things, but you have to keep them here. So Alfredo artificially blocked Duoduo and Aiduo.
The news between Linna ended Duoduo's first love. He drove Duoduo away from his leisurely island life and forced him to fly farther and higher in the sky.
