Raising Dragons in Hollywood

Chapter 116 Overinterpretation and Honesty

[Doing my own way, habitually ignoring all outsiders, things, and things, persistent, having fixed goals, extremely focused and persistent, and somewhat naive to a certain extent... Speaking of which, anyone who knows Sammy Griffin knows It can be seen that there is obviously a striking similarity between this eccentric character with an expressionless face and surprising moves from time to time and his creator, except for his height and appearance. ]

Bobby Hans used this passage as the beginning of the film review.

Compared with the previous analysis of the concept and thought of the movie in the newspaper, this amazing film critic who always likes to eat, sleep and scold Sammy directly focuses on the movie characters, and is committed to linking the characters and the director. Together.

Although this is annoying.

But I have to say that character analysis is indeed a good entry point.

It's just... Sami understands the truth, but what does 'except height and looks' mean?

I am not as tall as Mai Qi, nor as handsome as Mai Qi. Is it necessary to emphasize it?

Bobby Hans certainly couldn't hear Sammy's deep dissatisfaction.

He continued to analyze according to the usual thinking: [It is normal for creators to incorporate their own ideas into their works. After all, with so much investment, it is difficult to make things that have nothing to do with themselves.But to come up with a protagonist who is so like himself, I can only say that Sammy Griffin is too narcissistic. ]

Sammy:?

[However, there has always been no shortage of narcissistic directors in Hollywood, and it is relatively common to create movie protagonists as their own avatars.But what is interesting is that the vast majority of narcissistic directors will choose to play a hero or genius role, even if it is a villain role, they also want to play a role like a gangster who can give orders and is quite powerful. Of course, occasionally there will be Committed to playing tricks and being an example of ordinary people. ]

[But these are all categories that everyone can understand.Therefore, the only incomprehensible thing is Sammy Griffin, who chose to be a psychopath! ]

Sammy:? !

[As the protagonist of the film, the creator must first set a goal for him in order to facilitate the development of the subsequent plot. ]

[So, the main character Anderson's goal is to become a killer?Excuse me, would a normal person do this? ]

[Obviously not! ]

[good!Now that it is determined that the protagonist of the movie is a psychopath, everything that follows becomes understandable. ]

Sammy: ...what the hell did you understand?

But Bobby Hans did not continue to analyze the role, but changed the direction and brought up the old story again:

[In "The Exorcist" movie, I once came to such a conclusion that Sammy Griffin lacked the ability to tell a complete story. ]

[At this time, some people may raise objections, 'Aren't the few stories he told are wonderful'? ]

[It is very exciting, but you can think about it carefully, whether it is "The Exorcist" or the narrative style of this "Love You Will Kill You", from the beginning to the end, the overall atmosphere is extremely loose, not so much casual. With the plot slowly moving forward, it is better to say that the director is purely trusting the horse and shooting wherever he thinks. ]

[From this point of view, Sammy Griffin's narrative ability is definitely the best in Hollywood! ]

[Don't get me wrong, it's the worst of the worst. ]

[So, this extremely inexplicable way of narration directly led to the process of watching this movie...]

[When you thought it was a crime movie, it turned into a romance movie; when you thought it was a romance movie, it turned into a road movie; but when you thought it was a road movie, it turned back to love piece! ]

[But in the end, what kind of film is it? ]

[I don't know, anyway, Sami himself said it was a romance movie, hehe. ]

[This is a terrible, completely suicidal shooting mode.If the director is not Sami, but someone else, let alone participate in the film festival, it will probably be thrown into the trash as soon as it appears. ]

[But it is precisely because the director is Sammy that this movie has the value of existence. ]

When they saw this, many movie fans were surprised: "Has the sun risen from the west? Has Bobby Hans collected money? He even started to praise Sami?"

But obviously, everyone was too happy.

Bobby Hans then gave a solemn conclusion:

[Normal people often can't handle this kind of movie with chaotic narrative, and it ends up in a mess.But when abnormal people make this kind of movie, sometimes the negative and the negative are positive, and there are strange but good effects that people can't understand.As for the reason for this effect, the result of my analysis is that mental illness pulls normal people into their home world of mental patients, and then uses his years of rich illness experience to surround all of us normal people, and then, defeat! ]

In an instant, everyone in the comment section below died of laughter: [What kind of sand sculpture reason hahahahaha]; [I understand, you are calling Sami a mental illness in a different way]; [So we have all been tricked by mental illness? ]

Sammy didn't want to watch anymore.

He really felt that this person was sick!

But in fact, Bobby Hans is not all criticism this time.

In a way, he is even puzzled, because: [No matter how you look at it, this movie has countless problems that can make a movie a bad movie.For example, one of the characters who is not very pleasing, one is like a mental illness, who is incomprehensible and inexplicable every day; the other is obviously older, but weak and incompetent, and has no sense of responsibility as a man.In addition, there are plots full of loopholes, such as kidnapping charges that were confirmed without trial; fleeing in a car openly, but were not caught by the police...]

[Such absurd, bizarre and unreliable details, if you think about it carefully, you can find many, many in the movie. ]

[When watching, the audience can't help but ignore these. ]

In the end, Bobby Hans sighed out of unknown emotion:

[Sammy Griffin is truly a master at deceiving and fooling people. ]

It's barely a compliment.

But Sammy really didn't want to hear it at all.

However, except for Bobby Hans, who is always looking for trouble...

Looking at other reviews as a whole, positive reviews still account for the majority.

Some people think that this is: [The most amazing film in this year's film festival, it seems to describe the same-sex borderline romance, but in fact it is full of denial and criticism of the inherent trend of thought, as well as the rebellion and hesitation that everyone will encounter when growing up, these They are all easy to resonate with movie fans, especially the final fateful ending, which is very reflective. ]

There are also those who are fans of Sami, who help to boast: [I have always liked Sami very much. The movies he made are indeed as Bobby Hans said, which often make people puzzled and don't know what they are talking about.But as long as the audience has watched his movies seriously, they can more or less feel some of the sincere emotions he wants to express, every picture, every soundtrack, every story detail... because when he was shooting the movie , has never been superior, but stands with the audience on an equal footing, always full of sincerity.At times, he's even as selfless as a kindergartener sharing candy, showing off everything he likes.At this time, if we follow his thinking, we can really get feelings from the movies and discover the unspeakable beauty. This is the biggest charm of his movies. ]

The former is over after everyone has a look, but for the latter...

Many netizens later commented: [As expected of being a fan of Director Sami, what I write is all things I don’t understand. ]

Then, there was a little controversy about Anderson's role in the movie.

In Bobby Hans' view, the setting of this character is a sham. That is to say, whether Anderson kills mice or wants to kill people later, it is all random additions to add some fashionable value to the character.After all, there are always some eccentric movie fans who like characters with special occupations, such as killers, agents, etc., so it is understandable for the director to add some superficial elements to it, and it is understandable to sensationalize the public.

But there are also some film critics who try to dig deeper into the characters.

They think the role of Anderson is very interesting. It can be seen from the film that the source of his own killing desire is not explained at all, and there is no tragic life background or tragic past like ordinary movies. by.Therefore, if the desire to kill is broadly defined as a desire, then this movie can be regarded as the whole process of human beings fighting against desire.

What's more interesting is that this confrontation was not considered a success.

It is not the perfect happy ending of Hollywood. It does not whitewash and perfunctorily let the character completely correct the evil. Even in the end, the protagonist Anderson chose to ambush Professor Hansen at the door of Professor Hansen with a knife, but reason once again helped him to temporarily suppress it. Desire, until the end, is brought to an end by the death of the main character.

Of course, if it is more emotional, it can be said to be the greatness and victory of love.

But the implicit conclusion seems to tell everyone, either kill others or kill yourself, no one can overcome their own desires, only death can end everything.

From this perspective, the film is realistic and terrifying.

Therefore, some movie fans put forward a point of view from the perspective of Professor Hansen: [Professor Hansen was scared away by Anderson, right?Did he realize that Anderson was going to kill himself?If he wants to stay, will he be stabbed to death sooner or later?Look at the scene where Anderson grabbed the lighter and chased and burned the cockroach with perverted excitement. Professor Hansen's face almost turned green with fright.You said, was he afraid of cockroaches, or Anderson? ]

No one can answer this question.

At this time, the film has only premiered at the film festival and has not yet been officially released.

But these various film reviews, plus countless unidentified analyzes have aroused the interest of netizens.

Countless people who eat melons are full of curiosity about this movie, and they want to know who's analysis is correct after so many people analyze it.

But when it comes to movie analysis, it's hard to come up with a correct answer.

After several days in a row, without waiting for any authoritative statement, netizens became calm again.

At this time, a video was born!

And the title of the video is - After writing the script in 10 minutes, "Loving You Will Kill You" doesn't really have any deep meaning?

Fans rushed in immediately, and opened the video with great interest, only to find that it was a well-known and well-known talk show host.

The host smiled brightly in the video and said straight to the point: [I really like watching movies directed by Sami. This time "Love You Will Kill You" premiered at the film festival, and I rushed to watch it excitedly. Yes, it really was a worthwhile trip.I will not spoil the plot of this movie for the time being, but there is a song at the end of it...]

The multi-talented host picked up a guitar, plucked the strings and sang: [I know you have your fears and worries, I know you have your confusion and pain.Don't be afraid... I give you light, I give you light...]

At this point, he paused: [At this moment, all the fans at the scene burst into tears! ]

[What?You want to give me light?send me light ]

[God!God!cry! ]

The host began to exaggerate the scene of fans crying.

Everyone watching the video couldn't help laughing.

[I like this plot, but I still can't spoil it.But this scene is indeed very touching, definitely the best tearjerker of the year!I really liked it so much that I couldn't bear to be excited. I went to find director Sami and asked him how he could make such a tear-jerking and beautiful movie. ]

[Then, I finally know why netizens don't like this director. ]

[He's so honest!]

At this time, the video switched to the other side.

Sammy, with green curly hair, was wearing pajamas, lying on the sofa, hugging a pillow, and looked like he was still awake.

The host's voice-over sounded: "Sami, Sammy, don't sleep, I'll just ask a few questions!"

Sammy responded vaguely, "Oh."

The host continued to ask excitedly: "This movie is really good, how long did it take you to conceive it?"

Sammy yawned and replied lazily, "Just an idea? Two or ten minutes."

- So how did you come up with the idea of ​​creating this film?

——Watch social news and think casually.

——Then how did you come up with the idea of ​​creating the peculiar character of Anderson?

—I just wanted to tease Mikey.

——You mean...the character and the movie don’t have any special significance?

——Special significance?

——Look, the soundtrack you found, I give you light, I give you light...

——Light cannot be given to people at all, maybe it can be done in fantasy movies, but in real life, how can people catch light?

The camera turned back to the host.

The talk show host repeated Sammy's words to the camera with a look of lovelessness on his face: "How can a person grasp the light?"

Accompanied by the loud laughter of the audience, Hello's "I Give You Light" sounded tacitly: "I know you have your fears and worries, I know you have your confusion and pain. Don't be afraid... I give you light, I give you light..."

Sammy's answer in the interview also sounded simultaneously: "Light can't be sent to people at all, maybe it can be done in fantasy movies. But in real life, how can people catch light?"

The video played here, and with the sound of music, the last sentence began to be repeated in a loop: "How can a person catch the light? How can a person catch the light? How can it be possible to catch the light? How can it be possible to catch the light? Catch the light ?”
