Chapter 398: Sighs and surprises(1/2)
Very unexpectedly, after the premiere of the movie "The Secret I Can't Say", the popularity of the ending song, which is the theme song, did not overwhelm the movie itself. It can even be said that the popularity and praise of the movie are becoming more and more intense.
Because there are too many surprises and too many highlights.
Film critics like Sheng Jun have seen too many of them, so they are looking at the highlights of many of them.
This is also a professional habit. He watches a lot of movies every year. Not only do he basically go back to watch new movies released every year, but he includes a bunch of good movies in history, which are compulsory courses for film critics. So if you have good movies, you will unconsciously raise your requirements; if you have bad movies, you may find the advantages, and someone may come to him to have a meal.
But for ordinary audiences, that's not the case.
Most of them are not that harsh.
I won’t compare vertically, at most I compare my movie history over the past two years, and then I will be surprised to find:
It seems to be really good?
For example, at the beginning of the piano fighting, the audience who have the expertise in piano will know that it is a song by Chopin.
Well, no wonder this album is called "Chopin of November", and this movie is also the first song in it is the black key etude, the black key turns white key, and the improvisation transfer test is taken. Ye Xianglun is not wrong in playing any sound;
The second song is an impromptu adaptation of Chopin's waltz. Ye Xianglun only listened to it once and then it popped up.
The third song is even more awesome:
The repertoire played by senior Yuhao with both hands, Ye Xianglun popped out with one hand or his left hand...
One hand and two hands are completely different. Novice may be happy to play the piano with both hands. Even if you play an extra simple chord, it will be very stylish. But are veterans:
How about giving you one hand?
Damn, this guy is so cool.
The key is that they are not pretending to be a random person, like Long Aotian.
Instead, it pays tribute to one of the greatest and best pianists in history, Opud Godovsky. In his adaptation of etudes, there are often left-hand solo versions, which are very clever.
For example, the "Xianglun Xiaoyu Four-handed Joint Play" in the middle.
This four-handed song in G major only takes less than 40 seconds, but it is a small climax of the relationship between the two.
In the piano room, the camera shot the piano and the two people beside the piano from all directions, with their fingers flying on the black and white keys, interacting, and then the notes fly out and hover in the world of the piano. It seems to have traveled through the screen, traveled through time and space, and come to everyone.
This clip of Ye Qing and Zhou Dongyu ng too many times is worth it, because it really makes people feel sweeter.
For example, the last "The Secret I Can't Say" was written for this song:
"The most beautiful thing is not a rainy day
It's the eaves that once hid from the rain with you..."
Even if you hear this sentence, you can think of that scene, not to mention the chorus: "You said that you will go further by letting go
Why change the time I have missed
You use your fingertips
Stop me from saying goodbye
Imagine you being by your side before you lose it completely…”
If you listen to this song directly, you may feel that it is a pity that you missed, but what if there is such a true story behind it?
It's like when listening to a song, I automatically add a full MV to my mind and play it with the screen. Then scenes in my mind emerge, and I suddenly feel like I feel...
This is rare enough.
Therefore, "The Secret I Can't Say" was released earlier in the original time and space, and perhaps not so many viewers have understood this concept and logic. But now, things like traveling through time and space, keeping logic in hand, and simply falling in love are all plus points.
The male protagonist who is not crazy, the female protagonist who is not nervous, the plot is not inexplicable, the filming method is not monotonous, the actors and actresses, the youthful love, and the ending of the tragic are not easy to find in the past few years.
So I can only listen again: "You said that if you let love go further, let it go further
Perhaps the sign of fate will only let us meet
Just let us fall in love
This season's autumn
Only after falling down did I realize this fragment of happiness
How do I pick it up..."
...
The next day, 11:00 am.
In today's era, movies with high attention will soon become famous.
Especially when the film has a good reputation, the movie rating will become a great help: after the release of "The Secret I Can't Say", Maoyan's score successfully reached 9.4 points, and Douban even scored a sharp break of 8, reaching a very high 8.4 points.
This move scared many people who had never seen it.
Including Ye Qing himself: "It's much higher than I thought..."
Because to be honest, this movie is pretty good in love movies, it can be said to be good.
However, this film is not so easy to understand first, and secondly, there are some shortcomings in handling some shots. Finally, the grasp of the rhythm of the first and second half of the entire movie will make people feel uncomfortable...
But it seems that the audience is still tolerant of him.
"It's pretty good, it means our strategy has worked."
Sister Hua is happy because everyone has little expectations before "The Secret I Can't Tell" was released.
"That's true." Ye Qing nodded.
Even if it was the media movie party organized before, everyone was not very serious at the beginning. The dozen or so of their own film critics were sitting in the front row, leisurely, but what they recalled was how to use tactful language to mention the shortcomings of a few sentences in a while, or would they all praise them?
In fact, they were overthinking.
The movie for an hour and a half was slightly warm in the early stage, but there was no point in the later stage.
Many people are now happy because they are film critics and are not willing to make money.
Because if the video really doesn't work, the money will be just as bad as whitewashing them. In the current public opinion environment, if you take a wrong step, you may lose your credibility later.
So after finally meeting such a movie, they blow it away. What's even more rare is that the critics who went to watch it at their own expense,
There are also many positive reviews.
Let’s take a look at this movie called Sheng Jun: “Actually, when I first drew to watch this movie, I felt a little hesitant. Because Ye Qing has too many fans, even my colleagues are his fans, I was afraid that I would be criticized if I say something bad.
But later I thought about it, this idea was because I first thought that he just couldn't make a good movie. But in fact, Ye Qing didn't seem to be unable to do anything.
The movie starts with me. The picture is beautiful, the actors are very matched, the landscape is good, and the story is smooth. But it is still the trance feeling in the youth film. To be honest, there are really not many such feelings now, so I temporarily put away my prejudice and gave a few points.
And I have to admit that his music is really great, the whole film episode seems to have never stopped, and it keeps moving forward in line with the story.
But if that's the case, I don't think everyone will give a four-star and five-star review.
The following involves spoilers, please watch with caution.
Because at the end of the movie, starting from learning the truth, starting from the appearance of the tampering liquid, and starting from the scenes of memories, I found that Ye Qing did not just want to give us a simple love story this time. Or in other words, he wanted to give us more, and he wanted more.
balabala...
Finally, if this movie was shot by Director Zhang next door, I can only say it was expected, it would be OK. But this movie comes from Ye Qing, who is the first director, then I will only be sighing and delighted..."
...
So after analyzing, then checking for real-time comments and hot searches.
Overall, based on the current situation, the reputation is definitely stable, but it is still unknown how much box office can you get today.
Ye Qing and the others got a 42.8 screening schedule this time, which is much higher than the 16.9 in "On the Cliff".
"The Cliff" released at the same time is 7.8, so it can completely enter the category of "worth watching".
So I guess I won’t be able to miss the screening tomorrow.
On the side of "Secret", the market is optimistic about this movie, and the publicity and distribution department is also quite strong, and the competition is not big...
So tomorrow, I guess I won’t lose too many screenings.
As for why the screening is gone...
Because tomorrow "The Secret Visitor", "Chasing the Dragon and Capture the Tiger", "Sunshine Robber", "The Decisive Battle against the Gang", as well as "Pig Man", "The True Three Kingdoms Invincible" and "Looking for the Han Scheme" will be released.
On the day of the premiere, do you have to get some screening?
In fact, many movies were scheduled not as early as they were, and they came here later.
This has also formed this very crowded May Day stage.
"Actually, these films look quite competitive."
Sister Hua slid the information on the tablet before she came out of joy and was a little worried.
Because as mentioned before:
Even if the final attendance rate of this film is not good, if it succeeds, the other party may grab the film by increasing the theater share/relationship operation/subsidies.
And the current trend of "Secret" cannot be interrupted.
"well enough?"
To be continued...
