Hollywood legendary director

Chapter 51 Dialogue and communication (seeking recommendation and collection)

The Sundance Film Festival has always been regarded as a mecca for film lovers. The audiences who appear here can also be said to be the purest "fans"—movie obsessors, and the film creators who appear here are also They all know what they are going to face. They open up their hearts to communicate with the audience face to face. There is no politeness, no words, not to mention the so-called respect for guests.

In short, at Sundance, no audience will be polite.

Like is like, hate is hate.

That kind of movie is considered good-tempered if it leaves the theater halfway through the screening, and even the audience will stand up and yell at the director, not to mention that after the screening, they just leave, and they don’t even bother to express their disgust. Audiences, this category accounts for the majority.

Many movies in Sundance are hard to get the applause of the audience-if they can win the applause of the audience, it means that the film has truly been loved by these "fans".Then they never hesitate to express their support for excellent works.

"Three Fools in Bollywood" is such an excellent movie. After Lehman and the others stood still, they received three minutes of applause.

That kind of mighty and vigorous momentum rushed towards the face, and almost everyone's inner satisfaction reached its peak, and the applause slowly stopped.

The staff in the exhibition hall have been waiting by the side since the film screening, until then did they catch the gap, trot up quickly, and handed two microphones to Lehman and the others.

The next part of the Sundance Film Festival is the most sought after by film lovers-direct dialogue with the film production team, face-to-face questions, exchanges, and communication.

Of course, those movies that are not liked by the audience do not have this link. The evaluation standard is based on the retention rate of the audience, which is generally more than half.

Lehman looked around and found that everything at the Sundance Film Festival seemed to be self-sufficient. He remembered that when he visited the opening ceremony in Venice, the film screening ended, but there was a live host to control the whole atmosphere. , Here, it seems that there is no, it needs the film creation team to play on its own.

Another microphone was handed to George by Ryan. George saw that Lyman had never seen this kind of formation, and he was still hesitating how to start, so he immediately picked up the microphone and said with a smile: "Thank you for your support. , I believe that judging from the actions of everyone just now, this exchange meeting can have a very good start, and I also think that the film directed by our director is very good, and no one will criticize and abuse us next. I'm a little worried."

George's ridiculous jokes made the scene suddenly burst into laughter, and some audience members began to whistle, and the whole atmosphere suddenly became more active.

"Then the next step is the questioning session. I hope you don't put pressure on it, I think..." Before George's words were finished, he raised a piece of his arm on the scene, like a whole lush. forest.

"Please be merciful, everyone." George finished his last sentence, put down the microphone in his hand, and said softly to Lehman, "It's your turn, it's time to answer the questions raised by the audience."

Lyman pursed his lips and looked around.

In the laughter and laughter that George just adjusted the atmosphere of the scene, most of the audience raised their hands. Even in the crowd, he saw the pretty girl who applauded and supported at first also raised her hands, waiting for questions.

This made Lehman a little startled, but in the end his gaze still bypassed her, giving the first opportunity to ask a question to a middle-aged man sitting at the front of the audience.

"Director, everyone, good evening." The middle-aged man took the microphone from the staff on the side and said excitedly: "First of all, I must say, thank you all the creators for bringing us a very Wonderful work, believe me, after watching the movie, my emotions are still unable to calm down completely." The voice of the man caused a sympathy on the scene. Everyone clapped their hands and expressed their agreement in this way. .

The man stood restlessly fiddling with the microphone, and when the applause stopped, he continued: "I have too much confusion in my mind now, and I also have a lot of thoughts about the story of the movie, but what I want to know most is what Raga is afraid of? I want to ask Laga why he was so desperate to commit suicide in the dean's office."

Lehman picked up the microphone and replied directly: "If you notice, you will find that Raja has never lived for himself."

"Many times everyone will say that the world belongs to everyone, and it is true, but most people do not want or never think about owning the world. This is determined by human vision, and the distance of vision depends to a large extent. In the living environment. Among the three roles, Rancher has a firm mind, loves mechanical manufacturing and has the world in mind, Fahan is mediocre and hardworking, but he has his own photography dream, but have you seen Lajia’s ideals or ambitions? The father who is ill in bed, the mother who blames Tianyouren, the sister who cannot get married."

"Such a family that has not lived warmly allows Raja to experience the maturity of life early. People like him should have inherited mediocrity. Live a life similar to that of his parents, but he entered an excellent university. He saw a completely different world, which was full of old but infinitely yearning words like excellence, future, ideals, excellence. He gave birth to hope, and he wanted to go out and embrace that world."

"He slowly climbed to the edge of the two worlds, wanting to go one step further, but the existing world is too entangled, and the next exams have suffered a blow to his confidence. He began to discover that his abilities may support He couldn't get the future he wanted, so he temporarily gave up his best friend for his studies, and became more and more devout to the gods."

"Finally, when he knew he would do nothing, when he knew the gloom of the world after returning home, this kind of oppression finally made him choose to jump off the building. Raja is a poor man, he has seen the prosperity of another world He hated his previous life more and more. From hope to disappointment, it was the most critical factor in his suicide."

"...I never had it, how can I lose it? He can't let it go. I think this is the answer this movie has already given."

Lehman’s words caused the audience at the scene to fall into contemplation. They suddenly realized that they still had many details that they hadn’t noticed, such as the ideal or aspiration setting just mentioned. Among the three, only Raja had been holding money to support his family. I’m thinking, I didn’t even consider my job direction after graduation, I just want to make big money blindly.

In other words, Raja has never had a life goal at all, is to live for others, never to live his own life.

"Three Fools in Bollywood" may be more charming than what they saw, the audience thought, and suddenly thought.

Just after a short silence, someone started to raise their hands one after another to indicate that the pretty girl was there. This time, Lehmann didn't avoid it, and directly met her.

Bella straightened her waist and raised her right hand high, which looked like a straight little white poplar.

Lehman narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the girl carefully.

Her chestnut-colored short hair with long ears, neatly tied together, on her pretty face, the pupils of her eyes released a look of firmness and expectation, which made people feel that even if the director did not ask her to ask questions, she I will continue to persist instead of giving up regretfully.

This is so interesting!Lehman lifted his chin slightly, pointed his finger in the direction of the beautiful lady, and agreed to her request for questions.

Then I saw the beautiful lady slowly taking the microphone handed over by the staff, and then looking at the director Lehman among the four intently, as if the focus was slightly shifted, it was disrespect for people.

The two looked at each other like this, looking at each other in the air.

After a while, it seemed that the beautiful lady sorted out her thoughts for asking questions, and then said in a deep voice, "Excuse me, is there any significance in the depiction of the education system in the movie? The dean's different attitudes towards Chatu and Rancher explained again. What happened?"

After hearing the question, Lehman didn’t think too much. The idea of ​​shooting this work was actually in his mind. He picked up the microphone and eloquently explained: “If you want to know this question, you must first talk to India. There is some understanding of the current situation of education, or a clear understanding of the social composition of the country."

"You must know that India pursues elite education. Many low-caste people are not eligible to receive higher education. According to their official statistics last year, in 2000, the illiteracy rate of women was 43%, which was for men. Doubled as much, and their judgment for illiteracy is that they must write their own names. In other words, those Indian students who can afford college in the movie will not be low-caste untouchables. Moreover, you should It was discovered that there was not a single female student on the entire Imperial University campus. This is also a unique hint."

"It is also the disclosure of the above-mentioned social problems of the status quo of the inferiority of men and women in India, and the education problem. India has a large population and its national strength is not strong. In addition to the classification of class levels, the entire study pressure will be great. Students. The competition between them is everywhere, and most of them are determined by examinations. If you can get a high score, you will be able to graduate. If the score is not up to the standard, you will be out of school. Moreover, the school admits students every year. The index problem is also a big problem. There are only so many educational resources , Can only afford a certain number of students to enroll, so what should be done with the rest, it is naturally an invisible elimination."

"So in fact, in the movie, Raja’s crazy superstition of religion is also a hint of detail. He represents the status quo that the poor class in India is the most powerful support class for religion, and the middle and even wealthy people like Fahan and Chathu This is not the case for families. To tell a joke, the top class in India actually does not put their children in top industrial universities such as Imperial University, and they prefer to send their children abroad to study. For example, , The Ivy League universities in the United States are full of students from India."
