Chapter 984 The unrest caused by "Home Alone" Chapter 985 The soaring sky of "Tie Me, Tie Me"(2/2)
As a result, the thief broke into hundreds of houses in the town in order to find these five jars. With almost every house with hidden weapons, he only found two jars and was sent to the hospital like pig's heads.
That's it. "Home Imperial" has become the most successful movie since 1931!
"Home Imperial" became popular. It not only made Americans become unruly, but also began to spread it to other countries.
Just four days later, "Home Imperial" was screened in various European countries through DreamWorks' European branch, and eventually brought this improper whirlwind to the dull land of Europe.
The movie was first screened in France, and within two days, the French started a fuss. And they were much more disturbing than the Americans. It is said that even the president dared to hold meetings like usual. Because they were plotted at some point. Then the disaster began to spread to the surrounding areas, Germany, Italy, Nordic, etc., wherever the film went, it was invincible.
Finally, even the British, who had always been gentlemanly, could not help but be able to hold back. King George V even called for "Home Imperial" to be logged into the UK. When he went to the cinema to watch, he actually drove over in a tattered carriage in a medieval armor, which shocked all the British.
The film's box office results made all Hollywood film companies stunned. A movie that has not yet invested more than 1 million yuan has made more than ten times more profitable. Such a result is really jealous. This time, the Crescent Film Company has won both fame and fortune, and this film has also made Duoduo, Laure, and Harthai known to everyone and become the most popular iron triangle.
Many people reported that the movie was not satisfied with it, and asked Crescent Film Company to shoot a sequel like the previous "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series before DreamWorks. This opinion was adopted. Crescent Film Company is struck while the iron is hot to prepare for the shooting of the sequel.
"Home Imperial" really made the Hollywood movies in 1931 become popular.
But this fire is just the beginning.
In early June, DreamWorks' first movie of the year began to emerge, and Visconti completed it cleanly. "Tie Me, Tie Me" completed the editing work within a week. After being sent to the Codex Execution Bureau, it passed at the G-level, which made everyone extremely excited.
The premiere of this movie was scheduled to be held at the China Grand Theater, so the biggest goal is that DreamWorks wants to launch Visconti. As a newcomer, he needs such support and publicity, especially this is his first movie.
For this movie, many people's eyes lit up after hearing the name. Such incitement makes people think of the name, and no one pays attention to it. In addition, the starring Ronald Reagan and Betty Davis makes people feel even more interesting.
After the movie premiered, it was more popular than Visconti and I expected.
First, Hollywood filmmakers praised it on the spot, followed by the box office hit, and then, the academic and cultural circles had an unprecedented discussion because of this film.
Hollywood filmmakers and related media gave extremely high praise to this movie.
"This movie is simply wonderful! The young Visconti has presented us with a masterpiece! Throughout the whole movie, he can always make the movie natural at any time. From beginning to end, the movie is like an Italian people-showing song, making you feel indescribable and panic-in-sense inside. But it is so peaceful! Visconti's film style has a distinct tradition of Italian filmmakers, but obviously has his own personal proprietorship. He is like a snake lurking in the dark, showing you images quietly, and then at the most critical moment, giving you a fatal blow that makes you unable to dodge at all."
"At the end of this movie, when I saw Mark walking through his desolate home, and finally saw Malena, when I saw three people driving cars and singing on the road, my tears fell. What this movie reappears is a warm world, a beautiful world."
"Visconti can completely use this movie to enter the phalanx of Hollywood's top directors. I'm surprised why it takes several years or even more than ten years for other film companies to produce a good movie. Why can a dream factory throw a stone over and hit a good director!"
After watching this movie, John Ford was excitedly stuttering in front of the camera.
The Los Angeles Times published a photo of the day of the premiere, with a face in Visconti. The Italian young man leaned against a chair with a very weird smile on his face.
"When Andre Corleon first entered Hollywood, he hated the Italians the most. This is well known to us. But now something is very strange, that is, how could he value Visconti so much and support him so much. You know, he is also an Italian."
"From the investment and production of this movie, DreamWorks obviously put a lot of money. It can be said that no company in Hollywood dares to spend so much money on the first movie of a young filmmaker. Such support is simply like a gamble. But DreamWorks won this time. Visconti used this movie to prove that he deserved to be a member of the DreamWorks director team."
"The whole movie is very novel in the plot, and it is simply wonderful. This movie is completely qualified to compete for the best script of the year. Such an incredible but reasonable plot is simply incredible. This way of handling can be regarded as the usual feature of DreamWorks. In Hollywood, no film company can be as shocking as DreamWorks in the selection of movies as DreamWorks is almost every time. We always doubt whether God lives in their yard!"
"The most commendable thing about "Tie Me, Tie Me" is the rhythm and atmosphere of the whole movie, besides the story. Anyone who is familiar with the movie knows that this is the most test of a director. Many directors can only achieve perfection and leave no trace after decades, but Visconti was superb in his first movie."
"The rhythm of the whole movie is like the streams in the mountains, moving forward slowly, twisting and turns. Finally, the flow suddenly opens in front of you, forming a waterfall, and then becomes a deep pool, allowing you to immerse yourself in it and slowly reminisce."
"In terms of atmosphere, Visconti completed the fusion of Italian and Corleone styles. In the movie, the colors are very bright, which is very different from previous movies of DreamWorks. DreamWorks movies are basically solemn in color. Except for occasional exceptions, most of them are mainly cool tones, which can be seen in a series of movies by Mr. Corleone."
"But "Tie Me and Tie Me" fills the screen with a lot of bright colors. The red skirt worn by the heroine, the bright yellow room, the big red and green space conversion. These bright colors render the atmosphere of the whole movie, making the atmosphere of the movie ambiguous and commotion. This atmosphere not only renders the psychology of the male and female protagonists, but also provides a psychological basis for them to do things that we seem incredible. This rendering of this gorgeous atmosphere makes the whole movie become light and flexible. This style is obviously Italian, which is the characteristic of their nation."
"But for a movie, if only this style is the only way, its artistic expression will be greatly reduced, because a movie needs a little heaviness in addition to such a lightness. At this point, Visconti did a good job."
"In addition to most of the bright colors, there is a considerable part of the colors that are very low. The most important manifestation is the scene where the hero Mark goes to buy drugs for Mariona. There is no bright colors, almost all of them are cold tones. This cool tone not only makes the movie heavy, but also makes Mark's love for Mariona vividly. When we see Mark walking back to the apartment with scars in order to buy drugs, the darkness around him suddenly becomes cute, so charming and so heavy. This is obviously a clear Corian style. In Andre Corian movies, the use of this cold tone, especially through this cold tone to show the character's personality and psychology. It is shown here in Visconti. It can be said that Visconti has completely inherited the excellent style of DreamWorks."
"Tie Me, Tie Me" is a rare masterpiece. Especially this masterpiece is actually the first movie of a young man. Although Visconti said when facing the media that Mr. Corleon gave an important guidance on this movie, there is no doubt that this young man has talent in the movie."
"We should congratulate DreamWorks. They created another future movie master."
This article in the Los Angeles Times is so well-written that I appreciate it. Especially their analysis of the use of colors in "Tie Me, Tie Me" is simply a sensible one.
In the "Movie Manual" published at the same time, a large topic was made on "Tie Me, Tie Me", which accounts for half of the magazine.
"Tie Me and Tie Me" provides a vision for Hollywood movies. For a long time, we have focused on the characters' external world, even when we focus on the characters' inner world, we often only use the gaze of a psychoanalyst, such as Hitchcock, which is like a scientist rather than an artist, and it often shows very dark psychological content. Visconti pushed us another window, through which we saw not darkness and ugliness, but a spiritual garden full of sunshine, and saw flowers blooming inside. This is something worthy of our attention."
"In addition, Visconti's performance in this movie was beyond everyone's expectations. He seemed to be a sophisticated hunter, knowing what kind of beast hunting tool he should make to surrender all audiences. The success of "Tie Me, Tie Me" is that this movie completely notices the audience's viewing psychology, and this aspect is obviously something we often ignore."
This article written by Adam Bernstein is eye-catching.
Chaplin also published an article, and what he was interested in was his performance. Chaplin applauded the actor's performance in "Tie Me, Tie Me".
"The performance of the actors in "Tie Me, Tie Me" can definitely make many Hollywood actors feel ashamed. In short, this movie is the first movie starring Ronald Reagan. Before that, he only played supporting roles twice in the DreamWorks movie. I have to admit that this is an excellent young actor. In "Gladiator", he plays a dark, ambitious, cowardly, cruel and dictatorial villain. In "Patriot", he plays a young warrior who is fearless, jealous of evil and tender and sweet. This time, he simply shaves his head and plays a somewhat neurotic, persistent, and simple Mark."
"I like this actor very much. Although he has not received professional performance training, it is because of this that there are fewer many stylized parts. His performance is completely extended from the heart, which is about real emotions and is crisp."
"In the movie, he was beaten to the point of injury. He walked into the room and carefully helped Malena untie the rope, and then sat in the corner lonely, like a child who was wronged. In that scene, Reagan's performance was simply amazing!"
"Compared with Ronald Reagan, Betty Davis's performance experience is so sophisticated. After so long in Hollywood, she has become a cyclical actor, and no role has any problems in front of her. In this movie, Betty Davis vividly performed the subtle changes of a woman from being hijacked to being willing to be hijacked. For the actor, this psychological performance is the most difficult, but she has completed it and is perfect."
"In the movie, there is an actor. I think it should be mentioned most, and that is Dunar. In our impression, Dunar was a director, a director with great achievements and thoughts and respects, but in this movie, he showed his unknown side: an actor and a very excellent actor!"
"He plays a director who made a film, a director with a weird personality in a wheelchair. Although this role is similar to him in professional terms, it is completely contrary to his personality. But Dunar did it. He fully demonstrates the inner world of an old director of the film. In front of the actors and in front of Malena, he is strong. He treats Malena like a monarch. He looks at Malena with lustful eyes, but he cannot get Malena physically or mentally. In addition, he still has a sincere love for Malena, so this mood is very complicated."
"The old director in the movie is weak and difficult in front of the producer. He is oppressed in matters, and his wife is strange to him in life. In his heart, he is lonely, so when it is late at night, he can only rely on watching the films he has filmed for Malena to excrete his inner loneliness. In this regard, he is pitiful again."
"This old director is the hardest role in this movie, but Dunar, who has only directed movies in the past, completed his task well. This respectable director is also admirable in his performance."
In Hollywood, no one can surpass Chaplin in the research on actor performances. He is an expert and an absolute expert in this regard. His analysis of actor performances in "Tie Me, Tie Me" is unique and sophisticated. After reading them, people will re-examine the movie and think that this is the case.
In addition to publishing these Hollywood filmmakers' evaluations and analysis, the "Movie Manual" also publishes articles from some psychologists.
This is what I originally meant. After all, when I was filming "Tie Me, Tie Me", a very important idea of mine was to attract some attention in the psychology community through this movie.
So the "Movie Manual" invited many psychologists to write related articles, but they didn't know that these articles not only attracted the attention of the psychology community, but eventually attracted a big debate.
In this issue of "The First Book of Movies", a total of four articles by psychologists were published. These four psychologists are authoritative figures in American psychology, but they were divided into two completely opposite camps in front of the movie "Binding Me, Tie Me".
Two of them praised the psychological turn of the heroine shown in this movie. They believed that this was completely possible and provided a very novel and important research field for the development of psychology, and made great contributions.
But the other two believe that this psychological turn is unlikely to be completed, and it is entirely a fabrication of the movie.
As a result, after the articles of these four people were published, the American psychology community was in chaos and a vigorous discussion started, and finally the entire cultural community was involved.
Such a scene is exactly the same as when I filmed the first movie "Lust and Caution".
This debate is a matter in the academic world. Although the opinions are very different, they still feel that whether it is true or not, it is worth studying.
In this discussion, psychologists who support this syndrome still account for the majority.
It is rare in Hollywood that a movie can cause such a sensation in the academic world.
Anyway, Visconti's first movie was a hit.
Today is 12,000.
When I woke up in the morning, I hurriedly made a hole in my chin. God, a manual razor is really a killer.
The monthly pass reached 40, which is several more than yesterday.
Everyone, can we go further and strive to squeeze into 20 places?
Try it. OK?
Chapter completed!
