In fact, if there is no scene in the mental hospital, but only the performance of Ge You and Yingda in the mental hospital, then this [Big Shot] is also a pretty good movie at this time, but it is far from a classic.
It's just one step away.
If a good movie is rated 99 points, then [Big Shot] can still be rated 99 points even without the scene of the business dinner in a mental hospital.
But a classic movie is 100%, even if you watch it, it is only one point short of it, but no matter what it is, it is not called a classic.
There are two kinds of movies that can be called classics. One is a pioneering film, such as the first mainland Chinese New Year film [Party A and Party B]. Its status as a pioneering film is unquestionable. Studying the history of Chinese films
It's definitely impossible to avoid this movie.
Of course, there are a lot of buzzwords in this drama, such as "The landlord's family has no surplus food" and "I won't even say anything if I kill him", etc. These are all classic elements.
But the remaining "See you or part" and "No more fun" may be artistically more perfect than "Party A and Party B", but their value is not as great as "Party A and Party B". This is a pioneering work.
status issues.
Feng Xiaogang didn't make any breakthroughs when filming the next two New Year films. They just continued the humorous style of "Party A and Party B". Therefore, the last two films cannot be called classics. The other one can be called
To be a classic is to break through the limitations of the original work.
For example, the [Batman] series of movies [Batman Begins] is a movie that surpasses the previous Batman series.
Therefore, this is a classic Batman movie. And "Big Shot" is also a movie like this. Feng Xiaogang's sincere work after the failure of "Sigh" still has the usual small-town humor.
A joke about life.
It also has a sense of black humor and irony.
Therefore, this is a classic work by Feng Xiaogang. In the history of Chinese films, it is a powerful work that can compete with "Party A and Party B".
But now this movie only scored 99 points. Feng Xiaogang himself felt that this movie was missing something. When Ye Ming said that, he immediately understood.
At this moment, Ye Ming nodded and said: "It's almost the same. It lacks a bit of irony and is not sharp enough. To be honest, Teacher Ge is a very popular person, so it is impossible for him to play a role with that kind of irony.
In fact, after most Chinese audiences see Teacher Ge, even if he plays a bad guy, they still treat it as a comedy. Director Feng and Teacher Ge won’t object to this, right?"
Of course, the two of them have nothing to say about this issue. In fact, even Ge You himself feels this way, and his role has almost been fixed.
For example, when I later acted as a liar in "Let the Bullets Fly", I felt ridiculous no matter how I watched it. Ge You struggled helplessly for a while, but still said: "If I want to satirize others, the audience will have to keep watching."
OK, this is indeed more difficult."
If you come to Ye Ming, it will naturally be to solve the problem.
No one expected that Ye Ming would be able to see where this problem lies and ask such a question to the point.
At this time, Wang Zhongjun couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Ye, tell me, how should we modify this matter, but it is about to be released. If we want to make major modifications, it is simply impossible.
It’s too late.”
This is an issue that Wang Zhongjun is considering. As the boss, what he wants to do is to determine the screening date. Then it cannot be changed casually. Otherwise, Huayi Brothers will lose money in this situation. According to the contract, it cannot be
If it is released on time, Huayi Brothers will indeed pay a certain amount of compensation. The boss has to consider this issue.
At this time, Feng Xiaogang thought for a while and said: "Actually, the most critical issue is the actor's schedule. Yingda has nothing to do with it. My friends can find him when the time comes. But there is something wrong with Miss Guan Zhilin."
It’s done. Who knows if she has a schedule? Even if she has a schedule, she has already fulfilled the contract. Therefore, if she says she doesn’t want to come, there is nothing we can do. In fact, an actor has such a schedule.
The problem is the key.”
After all, the crew has been disbanded. Therefore, there will be many problems in reshooting at this time. As the director, Feng Xiaogang naturally considers the actors' schedule. At this time, Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "
This problem will not involve other actors, and there is no need to ask Guan Zhilin Yingda and others. My idea is to add a scene in the mental hospital. I can definitely find other actors to guest star. We have many actors in Brilliant Film and Television.
Actors, these people are quite famous now, and they happen to be unavailable, so I can bring them all over."
This matter is relatively easy to solve. After hearing Ye Ming's solution, Wang Zhongjun and Feng Xiaogang's eyes lit up, and they immediately saw that a problem like this was already a ray of hope.
Wang Zhongjun is also the boss himself, so when it comes to using actors, he naturally prefers actors from his own company.
After all, for movies invested by Huayi Brothers, actors from their own company will naturally be given priority.
Wang Zhongjun was very natural and said without any hesitation: "There are still many actors from Huayi Brothers on this issue. If I use actors from your company, I'm afraid the people below will have opinions."
Directly rejecting Ye Ming, Wang Zhongjun would not do such a thing after all. He invited him to come over to solve the problem. He just saw hope of solving the problem a little bit, and directly offended Ye Ming. Wang Zhongjun also
Not that idiotic.
Therefore, at this time, Wang Zhongjun found a suitable reason to reject Ye Ming, and the following actors naturally wanted to be in the play directed by Feng Xiaogang.
Even if it was just a guest role, Feng Xiaogang didn't think about it that much, but what he thought about was this drama.
At that moment, Feng Xiaogang thought for a while and then said reluctantly: "Ye Ming, I can understand the problem you mentioned. There is no problem in adding a scene, but this play has already become a whole. I think
If a scene is to be added suddenly, then this matter is somewhat difficult to explain. I can’t say how to solve such a problem so that the audience will not feel that this scene is missing when watching the whole movie.
The added scenes are rather abrupt and were added temporarily. If it ruins the feeling of the entire movie and makes people think it was added temporarily, then I think it would be better not to add it at all."
This is a relatively professional issue, and Wang Zhongjun is a relatively layman, but he can tell that at this time, Feng Xiaogang was hesitant about adding drama or not.
Therefore, Wang Zhongjun immediately said: "No, why don't you solve the problem if you see it? Movies should always be the best."
Feng Xiaogang immediately said very wrongly: "A movie, especially a good movie, must have its own style on such an issue. If you add a paragraph temporarily, it may suddenly destroy the film."
It's a matter of style. Unless the added scene can be well integrated into the whole movie. Ye Zi, how about you do it? Only with your acting skills can you add this scene suddenly without any trace.
The scenes were performed in exactly the same style as the entire movie.
After all, you have seen the whole movie, and you also know Uncle Ge’s style relatively well. I think there is no problem with this. I will never interfere with whatever you want to add.”
Ge You is an international actor. Although he doesn't like publicity, his acting skills are unquestionable. There are only a handful of actors in China who can compare with Ge You. And Ye Ming happens to be one of these few.
One of the few I counted.
Feng Xiaogang believes that only a big-name actor like Ye Ming can fully integrate this temporarily added scene with the style of the entire movie.
As a friend, Ye Ming also wanted to help, but he thought about it and said: "It's not easy for me to help with this matter. Rules are rules, and there are some rules that I can't help but follow."
The entertainment industry naturally has its own rules. After all, this movie is the work of Feng Xiaogang. If Ye Ming interferes, it will break the rules. Even if they are good friends, doing this is relatively dangerous.
Feng Xiaogang said without caring at all: "What does this mean? You are overthinking it. It's just adding a scene, and it's not asking you to change the movie. Master Shuo will sometimes modify my script. This is nothing."
The big deal is, I'll teach you a play. But we need to complete it as soon as possible, we don't have much time."
Feng Xiaogang's words all came to this point. Therefore, at this time, Ye Ming said without hesitation: "That's it, I agree to this. Let's start filming again tomorrow. As for the issue of actors, Mr. Wang will arrange it himself."
That’s fine, just find a few people playing mental illness, there’s no technical content in this.”
When it comes to playing a role, what is the easiest thing to play, and that is mental illness? It doesn’t matter how you play a mentally ill person, and the audience won’t say that you don’t act like it.
A person competing with a mentally ill person is an unreasonable problem in itself. As for this scene, that is to say, the real estate scene is the most classic scene.
Others are like tasteless, tasteless and a pity to throw away. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
