Chapter 548 Suffering to cry, mourning to shock
On September 9, the film festival officially opened.
The home court is in the Movie Palace, where stars from all walks of life gather, with half of commercial cafes and half of literary cafes. On the red carpet of more than 30 meters, female stars compete for beauty.
However, what the media focused on was always stars with a Hollywood aura, followed by European stars, and Chinese movie stars, except those of Ye Qin, Gong Huang, and Zhang Guoshi, all of them were ignored.
Yang Xiaomi was quite embarrassed at the scene, wearing a champagne-colored evening dress, heavy makeup and red lips, and she had been struggling for a long time. Only the camera team with her was taking pictures.
I could clearly hear the voice of the security guard, but I couldn't understand it, but I guessed it was urging.
Someone is still on the red carpet, it's overtime!
Turning his head and looking, Zhang Yuqi, who looked like he was wrapped in scrambled eggs, stood there for 10 minutes, refusing to leave, waving his hands around.
As long as you don't feel embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed!
At this moment, a piercing scream erupted from the crowd:
"Qin! Qin!"
Ye Qin, dressed in a black suit, slowly walked into Yang Xiaomi's eyes, "bulingbuling" sparkled, but the flaw was that the one holding his arm was Liu Shishi, not her!
The neck of the swan was wrapped in tulle, and faint strawberries could be seen faintly. Ye Qin had worked hard in the past two days, and Liu Shishi was brilliant and radiant just now.
With Ye Qin's assist, he immediately became the most beautiful boy in the audience, even better than his big cousin, Jennifer Lawrence, and nothing less.
Yang Xiaomi gritted her teeth, murmured the room number "404", walked out of the red carpet area in desperation, and walked into the theater.
Manchester by the Sea was chosen as the opening film.
There is no other reason. Among the films shortlisted in the main competition unit, the one with the highest ranking is Ye Qin!
As soon as he entered, he saw the 9-member jury, chatting and laughing with Ye Qin one by one, with respect and awe in their expressions.
What is an international superstar!
After a while, all the seats were filled, the lights were dimmed, the screens were turned on, and some discussions during the meeting gradually stopped.
At the beginning, it was empty shots.
In the cold winter, Manchester by the sea is gloomy.
The boundary between the sky and the sea is blurred. It is not known where the big gray is the air and where is the cold sea water. Even the streets and buildings look deserted.
A sad and depressing, preconceived.
Then, Ye Qin appeared on the stage, withdrawn, irritable, and very irritable. At the bar, there were beauties who took the initiative to strike up a conversation, but ignored them. When encountering a little quarrel, if he could fight, he would definitely not BB.
One look, you know this person has a story!
In fact, the story of "Manchester by the Sea" is not complicated as a whole. It is just a man walking dead in a daze. Because of his brother's death, he had to return to the small town of Manchester.
But unexpectedly, to take care of his elder brother's funeral, his elder brother has already arranged the funeral, and entrusted him with the guardianship of his son in the will.
However, Ye Qin really refused!
Just when the audience was suspicious, various clips about Ye Qin in the past, used interludes to bring up dusty memories one by one.
It's like exposing a scar, which he wasn't in the beginning.
Heartless, careless, an old child.
But everything I have, the house, children, and wife, were all destroyed in a fire!
It wasn't someone else, it was him who let it go!
In the picture, Ye Qin's eyes are dull, his eyes are sunken, and his head is drooping, sitting in the police station for interrogation.
"Our bedroom is downstairs and the kids are upstairs sleeping, and at about two o'clock Randy chased everyone away and she went to sleep, and I went upstairs to check on the kids, it was very cold upstairs, but I Can't turn on the heat, it would dry out Randy's nose and her head would hurt.
So I went downstairs and lit a fire in the fireplace and sat and watched TV, but the beer was gone and I was still jumping up and down with excitement..."
The long shot is on Ye Qin's middle shot, the upper body limbs and facial expressions are magnified infinitely in front of the large curtain, every muscle is numb.
With the camera in a fixed position, push it forward and shake it left and right.
The shaking of the camera is precisely because his heart is beating and bleeding.
"I don't want to drive. I walked there. It took about 10 minutes to go back and forth. When I walked halfway, I found that I couldn't remember whether I had put the fireproof board back."
After the voice fell, there was a voice of spurning in the auditorium:
"You deserve it, you don't deserve to be a father."
"He murdered his own child, murder!"
"Why can he speak so calmly, he should die immediately."
"..."
The audience was completely drawn into the play by Ye Qin's seemingly ordinary but natural acting skills, and more or less hated and despised this alcoholic man.
Coincidentally, Ye Qin in the painting also thought so.
His eyes lost their luster a little bit, like the eyes of a dead man,
He was silent, and the whole person was frozen on the screen for 15 seconds, expressionless, but still showing off his acting skills.
The close-up is on the eyes, if Liang Manchu is melancholy, feminine, and deeply affectionate, at this moment, Ye Qin has completely changed from a living person to a dead person's eyes.
Despair, numbness, remorse, pain, the intertwined colors disappear little by little, and the world is already gray in my eyes!
No crying, no wailing, these dry eyes gradually made the soft-hearted female fans cry.
I thought there would be no change in the eyes, but when the police announced that they were not guilty and released, just because they forgot to put the protective net on the stove, it was not a crime, it was just a mistake!
Ye Qin opened his eyes and couldn't believe it. He shot himself to death more than 100 times in his heart.In the end, there was no punishment, just let him go?
Walking out of the interrogation room in a daze, the whole person exploded in an instant, snatching the policeman's gun.
"Put the gun down, put it down!"
The whole police station panicked. The police raised their guns, but they didn't shoot immediately. After all, it wasn't Neko.
"Snapped."
The moment he pulled the trigger, Ye Qin was ready to die, but there was no bullet in his gun!
Crack, another empty gun.
Then, the policemen surrounded him from inside to outside, and violently stopped Ye Qin from committing suicide.
"fuxk, shoot me, shoot me!"
"Get down, put down the gun and get down!"
"Please, calm down."
Ye Qin cut his hands backwards, was pressed on the floor, and wailed: "Please!"
Afterwards, the movie seemed to be muted, Ye Qin's face was distorted and ferocious, veins burst out in his throat, he roared and wailed, but there was no sound, just like a silent movie.
This is Ye Qin's idea.
What is needed is the sadness in the silent place, the audience's attention is all focused on the screen, the explosive power and tension overflow the screen!
In an instant, how fierce the scolding was in front, the crying here was as miserable, and the crying replaced the cursing.
Compassion, pity, sorrow, worry...
Complex emotions linger in the hearts of every audience who enters the play.
The jury is like this, and the other shortlisted contestants have more complicated emotions.
Your opening ceremony is so awesome, what should we do? !
Subsequently, Ye Qin's life changed drastically.
Leaving the sad land and moving to other cities, he is willing to do any hard work to make a living.Repairing toilets inside, shoveling snow outside...
I no longer have any thoughts about life, just like a living corpse, punishing myself with my whole life.
If it wasn't for his brother's death, he would never return to Manchester by the sea in his life, and he didn't want to stay longer.
After finishing his brother's funeral, Ye Qin brought his nephew over, and the two grieving people who had lost their loved ones sat face to face.
Next, according to the traditional routine, the uncle adopts the nephew, supports each other in life, heals the trauma, and then follows the popular Dzogchen routine.
But the reason why "Manchester by the Sea" is a masterpiece is that it ruthlessly breaks everyone's illusions:
Some pains can't be healed!
Ye Qin unexpectedly refused to raise, "George will take care of you in the future."
"What?" the nephew was astonished.
"I spoke to him last week."
Ye Qin resolutely handed over the guardianship of his nephew to his brother's good friend, he no longer had extravagant expectations. "They'll adopt you, and they're happy."
"I know, I know, they're nice, but..."
The nephew is crying and has no relatives. There is only one uncle left, and the uncle doesn't want him!
"Why can't you stay?"
As soon as the camera pulled, Ye Qin looked at his nephew, and was frozen in the frame again for a full ten seconds, without moving or saying a word.
Just staring like this, his eyes are very similar to Liu Shishi who is looking directly at the magic eye. Yes, Ye Qin was inspired by the little lion.
Hey, follow suit!
Then, in the depression, he suddenly broke out, pouring out the pain that had been accumulated for more than an hour: "I can't take it anymore!"
The gloomy atmosphere lingers, as if seeing the light, but always feels like falling into darkness.
The light and shadow of the movie are brought to the extreme at this moment.
"I can't take it anymore."
Ye Qin didn't raise his voice, but became lower and lower and more depressed.
Don't let him stand and talk without back pain, how can the wound be so easy to sew, because his pain is too painful!
From helplessness to helplessness, from helplessness to powerlessness, finally, the voice was as low as a mosquito: "Sorry."
In just 5 minutes, Yang Xiaomi who was sitting in the back row was shocked!
After watching so many movies, it is not so heart-piercing, and the acting skills can no longer tell the difference between the inside and the outside.
There is a chilling feeling that arises spontaneously.
At the end, the head and the tail echoed, and returned to the empty shot.
The cold tone runs throughout, from the pale snow scene to the misty breath in the mouth, Manchester by the sea is bitingly cold.
"bravo!"
"Crash!"
The first round of applause sounded at the scene, followed by waves of applause.
Liu Shishi was sitting not far from Ye Qin, and was also surrounded by applause. While applauding, she stared blankly at Ye Qin, tears welling up in her eyes, and a drop of tears slid down the bridge of her nose.
The applause lasted 3 minutes.
The audience stood up, the chairman of the film festival Alberto Barbera stood up, and the judges of the festival's jury stood up.
European film festivals love this kind of anti-traditional narrative!
Anti-tradition is anti-Hollywood!
It's not salvation, without salvation, when people are in deep pain, they give up on themselves and fail to recover.
It's not the art of cinema, it's the power of authenticity!
Ye Qin nodded politely, scanned the audience, and really wanted to shout:
Who else!
