Since 1983

Don't think that film festivals are all professional. Low-level screening accidents happen almost every year.

Historically, when "Sunny Day" was premiered, the Italian copy was misplaced. The judges even guessed it after watching it, and finally gave it an award, which is also miraculous.

"The revolutionary wind and thunder are stirring, and the soldiers have the sun in their chests. Grandpa Mao, Grandpa Mao, how many intimate words do we have to tell you..."

At the beginning of the film, there is a towering statue of a great man, accompanied by popular songs of that era.

A group of people ran out cheering, gongs and drums blared, red flags waved, silver mountains and silver seas. There are also planes and tanks, and soldiers lined up in a long line. The breath is old, but it is full of rare spirits.

Jiang Wen's narration runs through the entire story line, introducing the background: This is a farewell ceremony for soldiers, and Ma Xiaojun's father is going to work in other places.

The pace was very fast, and after three or four minutes, Ma Xiaojun had turned into a teenager, riding a bicycle with a group of buddies, roaring past the alleys of the old capital.

In 1991 and 1992, Zhang Guoshi continued to fight in Venice. "Raise the Red Lantern" won the jury award, "A Lawsuit by Qiu Ju" won the Golden Lion, and Gong Li won the Best Actress Award.

Shuicheng audience's impression of Chinese movies has always been that of the countryside and the old society, the lower class, depressed, and struggling... But this one is different, it is actually a young protagonist, and he is full of vigor.

"Is this new director not bad?"

"Well, it doesn't look like a Chinese movie."

"The one in front is very young, and I heard that he is one of the top three."

Hiss!

Everyone gasped, how could the strongest of the three return? !

"Sunny Day" is not complicated, it is about Ma Xiaojun's growth.

Filling the teacher's hat with briquettes, blowing up the parent's non-disposable condom as a balloon, and even the mother broke it, directly resulting in an extra brother/sister.

Or sharpen the keys by yourself, steal the lock of someone else's house, lie on someone's bed and eat dumplings, use a broken telescope to blind Jiebao, and then see Milan's photo...

As a director, the ability to express is the most important thing. Jiang Wen's expression is undoubtedly precise and charming.

The breath of the times, the humanities, Ma Xiaojun in such a city, youthful and reckless, as if this city is theirs.

"..."

David Lynch and others watched very intently, chatting in a low voice from time to time.

"Very nice Virgo."

"Excellent in every way and pure."

"Excellent, but only excellent."

Youth films are not rare in Europe and the United States, and they are not enough to amaze them. But when the movie is halfway through and comes to a plot:

Because Milan and Liu Yiku got close, Ma Xiaojun was full of jealousy, and broke out on the day of the birthday party. He and Liu Yiku slapped each other, and the wine bottle fell on the table:

"I will cross you!"

He took half of the bottle and stabbed him in the abdomen without hesitation.

Liu Yiku showed pain on his face, but his clothes were not torn, nor was he bleeding, and the sound effect was even more funny, "Puff puff puff", as if the sleeves were blown by the wind.

The design here is very spiritual. Ma Xiaojun poked and poked, but the wine bottle in his hand disappeared, while Liu Yiku was puzzled and looked at him in bewilderment.

The screen suddenly freezes.

Jiang Wen's laughter was like a child who had succeeded in a prank, and slipped out again: "Don't believe this, I've never been so brave.

I keep vowing to tell the story honestly, but the desire to tell the truth is so strong, the interference is so great... I now suspect that the first acquaintance with Milan was a forgery...

And Yu Beibei, why did he suddenly disappear? Maybe they are the same person..."

"Oh!"

The judges and audience were all excited.

We always evaluate whether a director has technique, what is technique? This is.

"So, it was all fantasy before?"

"No, it's between reality and fantasy."

"No wonder I feel that some places are illogical, so it is."

"..."

Lao Jiang felt the restlessness in the audience, pursed his lips, proud but didn't want others to see him.

Xu Fei also smiled. "Sunny Day" is his most innocent work. At this time, he was thinking of leaving a button to reveal the burden in case the audience would not understand.

I didn't care about it later, whether Ai Te understood or not.

So there was "The Sun Also Rises", but after filming, I found that this was not possible, so I came up with "Let the Bullets Fly".

If you like it, discuss the various metaphors in it; if you don't like it, it's purely pretentious to say that people over-interpret it. In fact, "Let the Bullets Fly" has no metaphors, Jiang Wen almost squeezed his neck and told you directly.

Especially when looking at it now:

At the end of the film, the train turns to Pudong with its left light on.

Absolutely.

It's a pity that it returned to its original state after that, do you understand Ai Te?

Speaking of which, Lao Jiang played a bit of fancy work, creating an ambiguous zone between reality and fantasy, which instantly raised the movie to a higher level.

I told you directly that the first acquaintance with Milan was fake.

Therefore, the pictures of Ma Xiaojun and Milan getting close can be boldly judged to be all fake. The two never knew each other well, and the boy just wove a youthful dream for himself.

But Jiang Wen uncovered the burden, and the following plot was even more difficult to distinguish between true and false.

For example, when Ma Xiaojun went to rape Milan, he took off his shoes before going upstairs, as if he was going all out. As a result, during the execution, Milan was strong and fat, and killed the thin Ma Xiaojun.

Riding on him, he slapped his hands.

The two wrestled wildly on the bed, wrapped in a white mosquito net, and the sun shining in from outside, it was like a dream in itself.

Compare to the previous: "Don't believe this, I've never been so brave..."

Ma Xiaojun may have indeed gone to Milan's house, but he didn't rape the scene—hey, this is the charm of the movie.

"Two months later, Milan cut off contact with us. At the end of the year, Liu Yiku was enlisted in the army and left. With a formal girlfriend, we also went to the army separately.

I heard that when Liu Yiku was fighting in the south, he was stunned by shells, and after that, there was no news from each other. "

At this point, Xia Tian's story is over.

The screen goes dark, then lights up again, and becomes black and white.

In front of me is a modern capital city, with high-rise buildings and heavy traffic. Several friends have already grown up, drinking and talking and laughing in the stretched luxury car.

While driving, I ran into that fool again, still riding a wooden stick, and shouted at him:

"Gulunmu!"

"Gulunmu!"

The idiot who had never gotten angry with the teenagers replied to the adults: "Idiot!"

A group of people laughed and walked away gradually.

"How is it?" Xu Fei turned his head and asked.

"Also, still."

Lao Jiang's eyes were slightly red, and the iron man was tender, "It feels like a fire in my heart..."

"Who asked you this, I mean, after I deleted those plots, is it smoother?"

? ? ?

Old Jiang blinked and blinked, you should be a human being!

…………

"Wow, boom!"

"Wow, boom!"

When the ending credits rolled, the audience applauded thunderously, and David Lynch stood up and clapped his hands, nodding vigorously.

Sunglasses King, who came in later, was even more surprised. When did such a director appear in the mainland, it was completely different from "Red Sorghum" and other films. In an instant, the film killer in Hong Kong completed a one-sided sympathy with the film killer in the mainland.

"OK! OK!"

The host came to the stage and signaled to be quiet, "We watched a wonderful movie, and now we invite the main creator of the movie to come on stage."

Xia Yu followed tremblingly, and David Lynch also went up and shook hands with Jiang Wen. The status of the judges is not good enough to express their opinions, so they said a few polite words.

"This is your debut film. You are a well-known actor in China. How did you come up with the idea of ​​being a director?" the host asked.

Lao Jiang stood on the stage and said, and the handsome Xu Translator conveyed:

"Uh, I dare not become a household name because I made a few more movies. Why I became a director is also because I made a few more movies.

Once you get into something deeply, you will naturally have ideas, and ideas will naturally come true. "

"The concept of film is too big, I dare not speak in vain. You said just now that film is the director's dream and sharing it with the audience. I use my way of saying that film is wine. Even if there is only one sip, it must still be wine.

It is as if we have a bunch of grapes, and we cannot be satisfied with squeezing them into juice, but into wine..."

Um.

Xu Fei, a handsome and handsome beverage supplier, said so.
