Chapter 436: "Separation" Premiere
Chapter 436: "Separation" Premiere
During previous filming, Wu Mu often watched his own shots behind the monitor, and at that time he didn't feel anything special at all.
But now on the big screen, with sound effects and dialogue, it feels completely different.
Wu Mu stared at himself on the screen in a daze.
Along with Lin Qingyue's dialogue, he also appeared, sitting by the classroom window with an expressionless face.
Lin Qingyue said before that she wanted to capture the feeling he had, that feeling of loneliness.
However, he always felt that although he was from Earth and there were many things he might never be able to communicate with others about, he was not lonely at all.
Can.
A subtle "buzzing" sound was heard in the exhibition hall.
Sometimes, just like a novel, you can get a rough idea of the quality of a movie just by watching the opening.
The opening of Lin Qingyue's movie undoubtedly makes people realize that there is something interesting.
The many filmgoers sitting in the exhibition hall couldn't help but communicate in low voices.
"The style is very comfortable, with gentle monologues, soothing background music, and clean images. I immediately understood the style of the movie."
“The camera is amazing. It’s just a long shot of a classroom, but I can immediately feel the atmosphere and feeling of the picture.”
"That actor also played the role"
The moviegoers, who were communicating in low voices, were a little stuck.
People say this guy acted well, but in fact it was just a side shot, there was no action at all.
But to say that his acting is bad, as soon as you see him, you can immediately feel a very strong sense of atmosphere.
It's like filming an astronaut who was thrown into the dark and silent space. He was sitting in the classroom with so many classmates around him, but he always seemed so out of place.
Not only the filmmakers around, but also Li Man and others who had been secretly filming on the side, were all shocked.
The focus of their team's filming of Wu Mu was originally mainly on Wu Mu's appearance.
I didn't expect Wu Mu and his team's movie to be very good, but I thought it would be nice to shoot some more footage of Chinese celebrities with shocking looks.
But now the movie starts.
Something seems wrong!
A colleague came over and whispered, "It's a bit like the head-up shot in 'The Man Who Disappeared'."
"Yeah." Li Man nodded. She had just thought of that scene in her mind.
It's not that stunning, but it does have that atmosphere. It's very memorable at first sight and I want to take a screenshot and use it as a wallpaper.
Ok.
All I can say is that Wu Mu and Lin Qingyue are a very professional match when working together.
Lin Qingyue has always been good at taking pictures so that every frame can be used as a wallpaper.
Wu Mu can make even ordinary photos look like portraits and can be used as wallpaper.
The combination of these two has the effect of one plus one being greater than two.
And
"Is it true that you are transferring to another school? Where is it?"
"South Province Wenhai."
"so far."
Wu Mu looked at himself on the screen, talking to his classmates about transferring schools, and felt something was wrong.
When you were filming yourself, was there such a sense of atmosphere? You were just talking casually, with no special expressions, but it was obvious that you looked like you had something hidden in your heart?
Was the effect so strong when he filmed it?
He didn't seem to be that exaggerated at the time.
The more Wu Mu looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong.
Then he seemed to suddenly remember something and opened his system panel.
On the system panel, the skill [Enter the Play] was faintly glowing.
"."
It turns out that I was cheating.
Wu Mu sighed in his heart.
【Enter the play】
[Rare passive skills for actors]
[Effect: When you forget the role and immerse yourself in the play with your true feelings, you can bring greater resonance to the audience. ]
[Evaluation: It’s good to get into the role, but don’t get too deep into it. ]
This was a passive skill that he had drawn during the filming of a movie. When he had drawn it, he had carefully observed it and found that it had no special effects, so he thought the skill was useless.
The results are here.
Wu Mu looked at himself on the screen, then at the reactions of the people around him, and he roughly understood what was going on.
This skill is the acting version of [no technique, all emotion]. Just like singing, when he expresses his true feelings, it will amplify the emotions in his heart and allow others to feel them.
The direct result of this is that, even though he didn't have any special movements and there weren't many acting shots, it seemed as if he actually used some movements to act out his emotions and state.
There was nothing special about my expression when I was sitting in the classroom and reading the letter, but I just felt out of place with the people around me.
When playing football with classmates at school, he was obviously smiling, but I felt that his smile was just a cover-up and that he was actually hiding something inside.
When he was writing the letter, he was just casually looking out the window, but it was as if he was looking at the person he loved across thousands of mountains and rivers.
Anyway, the atmosphere is just maxed out, and the main character doesn't seem to express himself much with actions, but his whole body reveals a sense of telling a story.
A very difficult part of making a movie is to make the audience feel involved in the story and feel the emotions of the story instead of feeling bored or uninteresting.
And the emotion amplifier like Wu Mu undoubtedly greatly reduces the difficulty in this regard.
Combined with Director Lin's shooting style and the story of the movie itself.
When the movie just started, Scott, the editor-in-chief of "Screen", was writing down the various characteristics of the movie in his hands for reference in their later program manuscripts.
"The style is very comfortable, like a well-written novel, and it's soothing to listen to the story."
"The performance of that Chinese actor was surprising. He didn't do much movement, but I could feel his emotions. Maybe it was his eyes?"
"A love story, separated by time and distance, reconnected through letters, only to face separation again."
He was recording the film's merits, but as he was writing, he felt a little overwhelmed.
"Lovers will eventually separate."
"Lonely."
He stared at the big screen with unfocused eyes, and suddenly recalled the scene in his mind of the girl he liked when he was young but no longer in touch with her for various reasons. He also thought of his current wife and daughter, and his life where after get off work every day he would always sit in the car and smoke a cigarette before going back to work.
"At that moment, I seemed to understand the existence of eternity, heart, and soul. I felt that we understood everything about each other over the past thirteen years."
Wu Mu was also quietly looking at the screen, watching himself and Lin Qingyue kissing under a large dry cherry tree, and his own monologues in his ears.
In the movie, he and Lin Qingyue in the story seemed to have touched each other's souls. Because of this kiss, the two understood each other's emotions hidden in their hearts and thoughts hidden in their minds, and knew that the other person thought the same way.
The joy of being understood, responded to, and liked by others is like no longer being alone in the world. There is a sense of security that comes from having someone to rely on, and a sense of happiness that someone is a part of you.
Just like him and Lin Qingyue in real life, they understand each other a little bit and become familiar and intimate a little bit.
but.
"But the next moment was filled with unbearable sadness. I knew very well that we couldn't be together forever. The huge life and the tiny time were all inevitably blocking our way."
There were no fierce quarrels or huge conflicts, but as the distance grew, we stopped writing letters to each other and stopped contacting each other.
It's very plain, but so real that it makes people shudder.
It turns out that the touch of souls between each other was only a brief moment. It turns out that it is impossible for the desired soul to be fully accepted and understood by others.
Director Lin, who is obsessed with love, expresses something so pessimistic in the film. Intimate lovers will eventually separate, and everyone has to continue their loneliness. The sense of reliance and understanding that they pursue will never be obtained.
The sixty-minute movie ended very quickly.
As the two people passed each other at the train station entrance, the screen gradually dimmed.
There was silence in the exhibition hall for a while.
"Clap, clap, clap" applause suddenly rang out.
Then everyone seemed to be awakened and joined in the applause.
Amid the thunderous applause, one could faintly hear some audience members sobbing.
The applause lasted for three or four minutes before gradually dying down.
Then the sobbing hidden under the applause suddenly became extremely conspicuous.
"Wow, I'm sorry. It makes me sad. It reminds me of the story of my breakup with my first love."
"It's so real. I can't help but think of myself when I watch it."
"I didn't understand it at first, but when I heard the music at the end, I suddenly understood it, and then I couldn't stop crying."
Quite a few audience members had tears in their eyes.
After a period of quiet sobbing, the atmosphere in the venue suddenly exploded again.
Someone stood up and shouted:
"noon!"
