On the big screen, the film has reached the last moment, and it is also the last. In the roar, William Wallace was bound to wood and transported out of the city gate. Ordinary people who came to visit the execution smashed all kinds of things on him. Then Wallace did not half lose his temper, closed his mouth tightly, and still had a resolute look on his face.
The journey seems to be extremely long and extremely short. The camera switches between the Scottish Lord Bruce, Princess Isabel, Wallace's two companions hidden in the crowd and the dying king with long legs. Finally, the scene has come to William Wallace on the stage.
"Aren't you going to say something?" The executioner in red said, pulling back the cover on the table, all kinds of tools of torture suddenly appeared ferociously, "go ahead, the king's people ask for mercy."
However, there is still no stone standing in the corner of the wave. The executioner was disappointed but didn't care. In his opinion, as long as his tools of torture were used one by one,
the other party, even if it was a rock, would eventually have to ask for mercy.
At last, they hanged Wallace until he was almost out of breath. Then they tied him to the table and pulled his limbs as if he were going to be dismembered. The people below cheered wildly, which was one of the few recreational activities in their lives. That is to say, when the executioner came to Wallace and asked him to ask for the king's kindness, he would be happy if he said this sentence. However, Wallace was silent in addition to silence.
So the more cruel punishment began. The executioner used the tools on his body one by one. Although these cruel and bloody pictures could not be shown on the screen, Wallace's wide open eyes and trembling body alone could imagine how much pain it was. There were even women crying out in the screening hall.
However, Wallace is still silent, no matter how terrible the pain is, even he did not even cry pain voice, from beginning to end. The power of silence calmed down the people at the bottom. They didn't understand why the man above, who had been publicized as a robber and traitor by the king, could persist to this point.
A woman finally called out, and soon more people called out. They couldn't bear to see it any more. They hoped that this inexplicably shocked man would be happy rather than tortured.
"Cry, please." Wallace's two friends, who were hiding in the crowd, muttered that they would not blame him, and they believed that others would not blame him if they knew that.
Once again, the camera passes through the sad blues, the sad princess chewing tears, and the long legged king who seems to be smiling.
"Stop, the prisoner seems to be talking." The executioner stopped and leaned down triumphantly. He thought his own had won, and had won for his majesty.
Because of this short gap, Wallace, who was in great pain and nearly fainted, finally recovered. He opened his eyes a little blankly, and his breath became more and more rapid, as if something was forming in his body and was about to burst out. The audience in the projection hall
can't help but lift their hearts. They know that according to the development of the story, Wallace will not ask for mercy, but what will he shout out?
The roar of "freedom" erupted from Wallace's mouth. With persistence, desire, unyielding and blood, it shocked all the people present, including the audience sitting in the screening Hall who had been involved in the story with his grief, his uprising, his battle and his betrayal.
The stirring cry spread far and wide, reaching the dying king's ears, to the tearful princess's heart, to the Scottish Highlands, and to Robert Bruce, who was looking south of the city.
The smile was fixed on the long legged King's face, tears ran silently across Isabel's face, and Bruce drooped his head sadly. The scene was quiet, people were staring at the dying man, while his two friends closed their eyes and prayed for him in their hearts. The executioner straightened up in disappointment. He failed. The hatcher came forward and held up his axe.
Wallace lay there quietly, his wife's figure appeared in the crowd, the smile spread in the corner of his mouth, with the swing of the axe, his grip finally loosened, the original love token slowly fell down.
As Bruce inherited Wallace's legacy and launched an attack on the British team, and his friend who had fought side by side with Wallace threw out the sword with symbolic significance, the film fell to the end. At the moment the curtain appeared, the sad Scottish bagpipe sounded again, and there was a warm applause in the screening hall.
"Congratulations, ED, this movie is really good, at least it touched me."
"It's really you, ED," he said, "to be able to make such a drastic revision of historical events into such a shocking film."At the end of the screening, familiar and unfamiliar people came forward to greet him and praise him. There were both praise and sincere praise. However, everyone admitted that the last scene of torture was the most brilliant place. This is of course. In fact,
in Adrian's view, the content of the first 90 in the story of brave heart for more than two hours is to pave the way for the final scene.
Constantly highlight Wallace's infatuation, constantly highlight Wallace's perseverance, constantly highlight Wallace's bravery, constantly highlight Wallace's justice, and then there is the shocking "freedom". It is just like this, he gave up the original plot of making Isabella pregnant, which not only seemed unreasonable, but also further offended the British people, and greatly reduced Wallace's infatuated image. Now it's better. At least the critics don't gossip, and fans like Wallace more.
It is undoubtedly a very correct decision to let Russell Crowe play the role of William Wallace. He shows no less wildness than Mel Gibson, and his acting skills are better than Gibson. After all, he is a man who has been honed for a long time. His melancholy eyes also make his version of Wallace more attractive.
"You've done a good job, Russell. I knew you wouldn't let me down." Came to the theatre door, just met Chloe, also came out, Adrian immediately patted him on the shoulder said.
Thank you, ed Russell Crowe said gratefully, respectfully.
"Come on, you deserve it," Adrian didn't mind saying a few more nice words at the moment, then pointed to the reporters outside with a smile. "Get ready to be surrounded and intercepted by them."
Then he thought of something and asked, "do you have any schedule recently?"
"Do you need anything?" Russell immediately replied, with a look of "I can adjust it whenever you need it." he was a smart man.
"It's nothing. It's a very suitable role for you, but I don't think it's going to start production in the near future. Some of my favorite performers still have their own business to do." Adrian said with a smile.
"No problem. All you need to do is call me." Crowe said immediately, with no hesitation.
Another pat on the shoulder and Adrian walked out of the theater. As mentioned before, many reporters surrounded Chloe and asked questions about brave heart. However, most of them were around Adrian. After all, the controversy over the film has lasted for more than a month. Although he has made a statement, with the official release of the film, there must be another verbal battle. Director miracle must have a lot of new things here Smell.
"So far, although some British people think the film is very good, most of them still accuse you of tampering with history. What do you think of it?"
"I said it's just a movie, and it's stupid to look at the story as official history. If it's because of this film that British history is like this, it's really time to go back to school and have a good lesson."
"But don't you think it's biased?"
"Any novel or movie involving real people is inevitably biased. Roosevelt was great, wasn't he? He led the United States to World War II. To see him from another angle, he was drunk when he was young. After he became president, he showed love with his wife, but he was deeply connected with his lover. He also allowed the Japanese to attack Pearl Harbor and so on. So the film is just a film, showing only one aspect forever. If you want to understand the specific things, you still need to study it yourself. "
"Don't you worry that the film will cause political turmoil between England and Scotland?"
"If England and Scotland are divided because of this film, then their politicians must have come out of that joke. What did you say? Well, it's the most expensive thing for members to have a cup of their head, because they've never used it, and it's still new. "
"As your fifth wonder girl, what do you think of Miss Sophie Marceau?"
Adrian was stunned by this question, and then he saw Sophie surrounded by reporters not far away. She was wearing a light blue high V-neck evening dress and a dark thin coat. She kept smiling and looked elegant.
"Sophie is a very good actress and we have a great time working together." Adrian immediately walked past, surprised to see his arrival of Sophie turned around. Although her face remained unchanged, there was still a glimmer of inexplicable light in her big brown eyes. She was avoiding Adrian at night, but she didn't expect to be overtaken by him here.
"She has the characteristics of all the female performers in China. She is beautiful, elegant and generous. She also has some impressive advantages that they do not have, such as the melancholy described by useless language. It is because of this that I invited her to play the role
and it turns out that my choice is correct. " Adrian continued with a smile.
"It's great to work with Mr. Adrian, he's a great director, and it's a great movie." Sophie's answer is more formulaic.Obviously, such an answer would not satisfy the reporters. They were about to continue to ask. Adrian's car had already driven over. He immediately made a gesture to Sophie: "I'll take you back, Sophie."
Before she could answer, he immediately said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "believe me, this will solve these problems."
Sophie frowned slightly, but she still sat in the car under his escort. This undoubtedly let the reporters more excited, have to get on the car to chase up. There are even a few pure paparazzi riding motorcycles. They are bold enough to rush forward to slap the window after the car stops at the red light.
"All right, guys, these window papers are specially processed, and the flash can't penetrate. You'd better be careful not to hinder the traffic." Adrian put down the window and kindly reminded him. However, these guys exchanged a look of
after hearing this, they immediately blocked in front of the car and continued to press the shutter until the car started, but they didn't intend to leave the car.
"These guys are so annoying." Sophie couldn't help saying sullen when she was on the road again.
"Tabloid journalists often use this tactic. You should be used to it." Adrian shrugged his shoulders and said in relief.
"Chinese journalists are not so crazy." Sophie's voice was still full of complaints.
"That's good enough. If you change to those British tabloid journalists, even if I just stepped on the gas pedal and drove forward, they won't get out of the way. They will do everything to annoy you." Adrian laughed. "OK, Sophie, don't take it seriously.
take you back to the hotel and I'll go home alone. They'll certainly choose to follow me."
"This is your plan." Sophie gave him a look.
"Yes, I know you don't like that title, and Well, don't say that, "Adrian sighed." anyway, they won't bother you. "
Soon the car came to Sophie's Hotel, Adrian waved to stop the waiter, opened the door for Sophie, said good night and left quickly. After entering the hotel and looking at the reporters who left with him through the revolving glass door, Sophie finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then she felt a sense of loss again.
With "brave heart" officially released, as everyone expected, the entertainment media in Britain and America began to be lively again. Although many tabloids began to hype the affair between Adrian and Sophie, and talked about "the fifth wonder girl", Adrian sent Sophie to the hotel in full view of the public that night, and then drove home alone. He behaved in a proper manner and could not catch any mistakes. Some newspapers even described him as very gentlemanly and considerate, so the scandal did not smoke It has attracted too much attention. What people pay most attention to is the verbal battle of the media.
"Oh, freedom, that's a good word. Adrian pieced together history into a story, and then added a lot of sensationalism, so there was this movie" brave heart "which came down from the Hollywood assembly line." The media in England are still very critical.
"Freedom is something everyone yearns for. It is precisely because of this yearning that countless people struggle for it. There is not much relationship between William Wallace in the film and William Wallace in history. The director of miracle wants to show the desire for freedom
, struggle and sacrifice, not just the history of a nation's struggle. The representative can be William Wallace or Che vargra, so there is no need for the British. "The American media are also singing praises as always. The last scene of the" from
from "really tickled the mainstream society.
"It's different from history, but it doesn't stop the film from being excellent." The Scottish media also act as bystanders, and sometimes bystanders are very helpful.
"Sophie Marceau's performance is amazing, just like Princess Isabel in history, she is as gentle and affectionate as Princess Isabel, but she has a firm heart. As for history, oh, you have to understand that Hollywood movies need history to match them, not them to match history, even miracle directors are no exception. But then again, if, as Mr. Johnny Stanley put it, Princess Isabel and Wallace were pregnant with each other's children after one night, perhaps the film would have been more interesting. " The Chinese media also put a foot in it. In a few lines,
, they showed their narcissistic, despised Hollywood movies and could not understand the situation.
However, in spite of the fact that the media in North America are fighting each other bravely at the box office, they are still fighting with each other. The box office of the first week of the new year in North America was $24 million, which easily topped the list. On the British side, not only Scots like it, but also English people like it. It is said that many young people in England even yell for freedom with Wallace in the film at the end, which is funny, isn't it? In fact, it is also normal. For a normal person with three outlooks, they can distinguish between film and life. When they watch movies, they are watching stories. As long as they can be moved, happy and relaxed, they will not think that no matter what the theme isThe shadow is about the real thing.
However, there are always more funny things in the world. For example, shortly after the film was released, a member of the Scottish Parliament vowed to submit a bill for independence.
Idiots, this is the first thought of all the people with some heads. Scotland and England have been united for so long, and they have enjoyed the glory of the Empire for such a long time, but now they want to be independent. What kind of fantasy is this? Even if the Scottish Parliament does pass this ridiculous bill, Britain, the United States and Europe will not agree to it.
Although it was due to "brave heart", the British media did not pay any attention to Adrian, instead, they focused on the congressman. Even one critic quoted Adrian's remarks: "as director miracle said, these
