"I'm shocked by your coldness and cruelty, duffrey, even in front of you. On behalf of the Supreme Court of Maine, I sentenced you to two life sentences, one for each, immediately, no parole, no above!" Andy Dufresne's face turned pale as the judge passed the cold sentence.
Naturally, the next step is to go to prison with a clang. What kind of attack is more serious than this? When passing through the prison gate, the looking up camera makes the viewer feel a kind of suffocation, while the governor's naked "give the faith to God, give the body to me" gives people a preliminary understanding of the despair in the prison.
However, to our surprise, Andy, who most people - both Rhett in the film and the audience in front of the big screen - thought he would cry on the night of prison, accepted his situation very calmly. As Rhett said when the wind blows, he's like a free man among these prisoners.
As the story continues to develop, Rhett's "fish in water" in prison, the ferocity of the prison guards, and the metamorphosis of the "three sisters" are shown one by one with the plot. The audience is worried and indignant, but they also wonder whether Andy has killed his wife?
The answer to this question seems to have been revealed in the period when the roof was mended. Andy risked being pushed downstairs by the C.O. captain and bought three bottles of beer for each of his companions. In the early morning sun, the prisoners are drinking fresh beer, and Andy is smiling at them, as if normal workers were resting.
As Andy helped the warden evade taxes, he began to get into the warden's sight, and then was transferred to the library to keep old cloth company, and then began to launder money for the warden. He began to be institutionalized, just like the old cloth who was released on parole and hanged himself in his room. He wrote to the state house to ask for funds to build a library, which seemed to be a dying struggle until "Figaro's wedding" was heard in prison.
"I didn't understand what the two Italian ladies were singing that day, and I didn't want to understand..." Red's voice rang, but another line began to reverberate in the audience's mind: some birds are not meant to be caged, because every feather of them is shining with the light of freedom!
Finally, coming soon, Tommy, who was jailed for stealing, cleared Andy's suspicion. Unfortunately, the warden did not intend to make a statement for him. How could he let a prisoner who had his secret out of control. Andy angered the warden and was finally imprisoned. Although he fought, he failed, and even took Tommy's life.
Is it about to end? The audience held their breath when they learned that Andy had taken a few feet of rope from a friend, when the camera stayed in Andy's bed for a long time, when red said, "no one can make it.". At this point, no matter who it is, they don't want to see the end of the tragedy.
They did not see it, and the plot suddenly twists and turns. When the camera stretches from Andy's escape cave to photograph the prison governor's distorted face, when Andy meticulously plans to crawl in the stinky sewer, when Andy reaches out his hands in the rain to look up at the night sky, in the rich and passionate music, the audience's emotion which has been suppressed to the extreme is suddenly exhausted The release of feelings out, the projection hall long out of breath sound everywhere.
The film is finally over, all the bad guys are punished, and red, who confesses to Andy, is released on parole. Then, they meet again on the sunny beach and embrace each other.
The light in the projection hall was on. It was quiet for a few minutes. Suddenly, there was only one person at first, but there were two more. With more people joining in, the warm applause could almost overturn the roof.
"It seems that people still like this movie." Adrian, sitting in a special compartment, looked at the scene in the projection hall and said with a little pride. Lafayette looked at him and didn't speak. He bowed his head and wrote something in his notebook.
Soon, some staff members fed back the information of the audition. Adrian could not help whistling with the statistical form: "you see, Laffer, the evaluation is basically 8-9 points, and there are several 10 points. As for the opinions put forward, they are all in my expectation and can be ignored."
"It's a great movie indeed." Lafayette nodded his approval.
"Well, I'll inform globegroup and give you the publicity work." Adrian watched him without blinking.
"I understand." Lafayette stopped what he was doing, raised his head and nodded seriously again.
He knows why Adrian is so serious, Oscar! As the most influential film awards in the United States, the honors represented by the Academy Awards are incomparable to those of other awards, whether they are the Golden Globe Award, the director's Union award, or the Film Critics Association Award. Every year, when the Oscars are held, there will be a big war. Every film company makes every effort to promote and publicize their own films and actors Guan, from nomination to award.
As Adrian said, all the awards ceremonies are just a piece of cake - whether it is a European Film Festival or an Oscar - as long as you have the qualification to participate, you can expect to get one. As for whether you can get it, it depends on the promotion and public relations.Generally speaking, if a film or an actor can be nominated and awarded a prize, the contribution of publicity and public relations should account for at least 40%. In particular, this proportion will increase by 5 percentage points. Unless the film or actor has an indisputable advantage, for example, 90% of the critics and the public agree that the film or actor should win the prize, or there is a big gap between other films and actors nominated in that year and the film or actor.
It sounds unacceptable. Isn't it supposed to be fair and fair to judge such a well-known film award? However, the reality is such a pity that people will be affected and biased. Of course, the judges can not be human beings, so it is certain that they are affected or have subjective views on some films.
As long as the publicity is in place and the public relations are effective, the judges will unconsciously favor some films and some actors, and then vote for them. It is not that the film academy has not thought of a way. 5000 members are all judges, which is one of the measures. This indeed ensures the fairness to a certain extent. After all, it's not easy to influence 5000 people compared to the Golden Globe with only 99 judges.
However, this fairness is only to a certain extent. The 5000 members of the film academy seem to be quite large, but less than half of them can really control the judges. Just like those European film festivals, the domestic judges always have a greater voice. Therefore, after ensuring the quality, the competition outside the quality has become the main factor determining the outcome. If you have a huge propaganda tool in hand, and you can let the judges see, hear and notice at any time, you will almost be invincible. This is the power of the media.
Of course, ordinary people will not see these things. They will only see the predictions of critics, the various shows on the red carpet of the Oscar, only the beautiful and gorgeous pictures, but they will not and can not pay attention to all kinds of things behind them - this is also the power of the media.
As a result, Adrian has fulfilled his promise to make a film that has been shortlisted. Whether he can get the Oscar tickets next year depends on Lafayette's publicity work.
"Well, then let's talk about another issue," Adrian immediately changed the subject, "the preparation of the new film."
Lafayette suddenly showed a wry smile. He didn't know what to say. Adrian's pace was too fast and too big, which made him feel that he couldn't catch up. It is undeniable that since he acquired Bosworth film company, the two small cost and high box office movies made by him immediately changed the company's current half dead situation. In particular, the box office of "memory fragment" is only a few million less than that of "two big guns", but it has won a very high reputation. It has been several years since Bosworth film company last appeared this kind of situation.
In addition, he has a keen eye on investment films. For example, the global box office of Terminator 2 in July has exceeded 400 million, and several countries have not yet shown it. The global final box office may exceed 500 million!
Since there is a good start, then naturally should be steady development, but Adrian chose to storm. In the memory of the debris has not yet been off the production line, began to prepare a medium-sized investment "Shawshank Redemption", and this time the goal is no longer a film festival, but the Oscar! In addition, he invited Spielberg to make Jurassic Park, and he is going to work with Disney to produce a live version of the ghost horse elf.
Well, Lafayette admits that Shawshank Redemption is an excellent film and fully qualified for the Oscars. He also admitted that with the lessons learned from Terminator 2, Jurassic Park would not make a lot of money if it could make realistic dinosaur CG; however, ghost horse elf has the accumulated popularity of animation. As long as the director and producer can grasp the selling points, it is possible to make a profit. But Adrian not only did not stop, but ran even more crazy. The late stage of Shawshank Redemption had just ended, and he had to prepare a new film immediately. He also had to make three films in the coming year. He also threatened to hold a film emperor and a film queen on stage, and to be nominated as the best director!
As a veteran of the entertainment industry, Lafayette has met many arrogant, paranoid, eccentric directors and producers, but Adrian's is the first time. He is neither arrogant nor paranoid, and very recuperative, but when it comes to film, he becomes extremely confident, as if he is always right. Indeed, Adrian's ability is beyond doubt, so far he has been right, but the question is, can he be right all the time?
Maybe Yes? Although he had put forward opinions on Adrian's practice long ago, Lafayette did not want to see the miracle of rebirth.
(well, I admit I'm still digging. No wonder some guy said that my book is a little bit slow, but fortunately, the pit in Chapter 1 will be filled in soon, and the protagonist will establish his position initially.)
