The premiere of "Death Illusion" came to a close to a chorus of applause, but it was just the beginning.
After many professional movie fans went back, they all started to log on the official website of the movie and found the surprise mentioned by Richard Kelly. The entire website itself is a puzzle game. Only after the game is cleared can the "Time Travel Upanishads" be read. . This is definitely the best challenge for professional movie fans.
When word of mouth about the movie spread, various analyses of the movie began to emerge little by little. William Wood couldn't help but be grateful for his vision. He saw Gu Luobei's potential on the red carpet at a glance. Among many reporters, he was the first to study the movie "Death Illusion". With his intuition, he felt that Gu Luobei would be an opportunity for a major turning point in his career, so he must seize this opportunity.
After detailed analysis, William Wood quickly figured out what is a living body recipient, what is a dead control body, a living control body, what is the original universe and offline universe, etc.; he also figured out the so-called Tony- What is the fate of Duck; and all the characters in the movie have roles and missions, and do not appear randomly. Of course, there is still the most direct question. Is the human rabbit Frank in the movie a real person or an alien? In fact, Frank was the date of Tony Duck's sister the night the plane engine fell, and the rabbit costume was just his Halloween costume. It's just his clothes. Frank, like Gretchen, is a death control body. The difference is that Frank communicates with Tony through the fourth-dimensional channel, while Gretchen communicates with Tony through real life.
After the analysis, William Wood, who originally only watched the movie because of Gu Luobei, was also impressed by the movie.
The theme of "Death Illusion" is to emphasize fatalism and agnosticism. Because Tony-Dak has only one chance with no cycle between the original universe and the offline universe, the Lord must plan everything. The Lord must arrange all the details so that the living recipient can send the holy relic back to the universe before the offline universe collapses, so that time can return to normal.
If you analyze it carefully, you will find that all the plots in the movie serve this theme, and then tell the audience the greatness of the Lord through the theme of the movie! At the same time, this also reflects another theme of the film: agnosticism, the Lord does exist, but it cannot be proved. Although this film is a film that requires the use of extremely complex scientific theories and logical reasoning to understand the film, it expresses religious themes and fatalism, which shows Richard Kelly's hard conscience.
In addition, the film's choice of music is also the finishing touch. The film uses music with a unique 1980s charm, most of which are soothing and low-pitched, not only in line with the film's plot, but also adding to the fate of the film itself, and the selection of songs is perfectly matched with the plot, as if it was tailor-made.
After the analysis, William Wood discovered that the plot of the film can be called perfect, and it is also excellent in terms of technology, and the excellent and sublimation of the script highlights the excellence of Richard Kelly. Of course, William Wood did not forget his original intention. He did a lot of analysis on Gu Luobei's acting skills. He was very happy with the result: this young man with a unique appearance and temperament, his acting skills were as good as his external conditions. Even the kind of potential that can be seen is even better!
"Death Illusion" is a film that elaborates a theme about religion with a complex plot, exquisite graphics, nostalgic music and superb performances by actors. It wraps a core about the Lord with a scientific shell, expressing everything It is a predestined fatalism. It is rare in the world to see such a comprehensive and excellent film as this one.
To this end, William Wood wrote a four-page special feature to introduce the film "Death Illusion", which far surpassed other big hits at this Sundance Film Festival. His owner, Entertainment Weekly, hesitated, cut it, and finally released a condensed two-page version. Coupled with that special piece by Chris Fairbank, it has attracted a lot of attention in the film critics.
But it must be admitted that the "Death Illusion" is too esoteric. It requires people to stop and taste it slowly and study it carefully. If you don't put your mind or time into it, you can't understand this movie. In this fast food society, this kind of film is destined to be the classic of Cult films, and it is too small to be small. Therefore, the radiation of the influence of "Death Illusion" is limited after all, and it is only passed down by word of mouth among a small range of professional movie fans.
I don't know if "Death Illusion" will be released smoothly, and what kind of box office and reputation will it get after it is released. For now, no distribution company has contacted Richard Kelly, even though "Illusion of Death" has become one of the hot spots at the Sundance Film Festival.
After the premiere finally ended, Christopher Nolan was nowhere to be found. It's not surprising that this Englishman is not good at socializing. On this occasion, he took the initiative to ask Gu Luobei a question just now. It's not easy anymore. Leaving now is to be expected.
Although he was not able to communicate with Christopher Nolan again, Gu Luobei found Ryan Gosling very quickly. Yesterday he called Ryan Gosling to watch the movie, but he just said it subconsciously. Unexpectedly, Ryan Gosling not only came, but also came so early and entered the venue smoothly. Even if it was just one-sided friendship, Gu Luobei felt very happy.
"Sir, the movie is good, and your speech on stage is even better." As soon as Ryan Gosling came up, he said to Gu Luobei with a smile.
"Is there candy?" Gu Luobei ignored Ryan Gosling's question, but rubbed his stomach, "I'm a little hungry."
Even though Ryan Gosling was wearing a suit, he must have candy in his pocket. Hearing that Gu Luobei wanted to eat candy, he immediately took a cube of candy from his pocket and put it in Gu Luobei's hand, "Yesterday I didn't mention it when we chatted, which made me keep thinking, it's really unreasonable for such a handsome guy to not have a director looking for him to act."
Gu Luobei peeled off the candy paper and put the hard candy into his mouth. It was mint-flavored, and a coolness spread in his mouth, "What did you want me to say yesterday? Hey, man, I'm an actor, tomorrow My movie is on show, go and see it?" Gu Luobei's flamboyant performance made Ryan Gosling burst into laughter.
Although Gu Luobei and Ryan Gosling only met yesterday, they are not close friends. But for Ryan Gosling, he asked two questions that seemed naive in the eyes of others yesterday, and Gu Luobei answered them earnestly, which shows that Gu Luobei is a friend worthy of further acquaintance. This is Ryan Gosling's way of making friends, and it's actually very convenient for someone who is inferior and confident, and who lacks trust in friends. That's why Ryan Gosling is here today.
As for Gu Luobei, he likes Ryan Gosling's daring and unrestrained style. I still remember that at the 64th Cannes Film Festival in 2011, "Desperate Drive" won the Best Director Award. Under the excitement, Ryan Gosling kissed director Nicholas Winding Ray in front of all the media. Fern, show personality.
Therefore, today the two met for the second time, and the politeness in the conversation was much less, and the conversation became a lot more comfortable.
"When you chose the movie 'The Believer', your agent didn't jump?" Gu Luobei and Ryan Gosling walked out of the theater side by side. Teddy Bell had been waiting for Gu Luobei just now, but Gu Luobei said that his throat was smoking, so Teddy Bell went out to buy water and should be outside the cinema now.
At this time, there were still a lot of people in the cinema, but they were all professional movie fans, and there was less madness of the groupies. Seeing Gu Luobei and Ryan Gosling, they just waved hello excitedly and said hello. Not surrounded.
When Ryan Gosling heard this question, he giggled without answering, "Then you are different. When you received the 'Death Illusion', your manager probably just swears." Finished speaking Before waiting for Gu Luobei to react, he laughed out loud. Gu Luobei also described Teddy Bell's frantic look in his head, clapping his hands and laughing.
"You don't need so much forward thinking to take the script, you just like it if you like it." After laughing, Gu Luobei expressed his opinion.
No, Ryan Gosling immediately clapped his hands and applauded, as if he had found a comrade, "I don't have an agent now, and I went to the Screen Actors Guild myself to find opportunities for the script. I know the movie 'The Believer' will be released. The chances are slim, but I really fell in love with this role, so I went for an interview."
Ryan Gosling's words made Gu Luobei raise his eyebrows. If he knew about Ryan Gosling's personality only through news, now Gu Luobei has a personal experience. This kind of character is in perfect harmony with Gu Luobei. "For us, Sundance is heaven!" The paradise of independent films, for their individual independent actors, is indeed paradise.
Gu Luobei's words immediately touched Ryan Gosling, he rubbed his hands and said, "Just for your words, we should have a good drink tonight."
"What's wrong with this, we won't leave at the bar in the room at night." Gu Luobei said with a smile.
There is no age limit for the reception at the Sundance Film Festival. It is estimated that considering the rambunctiousness of independent film people, even the limit is a decoration. Therefore, Gu Luobei, Ryan Gosling and others who are under the age of 21 naturally have to enjoy a life where they can drink.
Just after walking out of the movie theater, Gu Luobei saw Teddy Bell approaching, so he raised his hand and waved, indicating that he was here. No, Teddy Bell hadn't come over yet, but there was an old man with gray hair in front of the right side who also greeted him with a smile, as if he was talking to Gu Luobei and Ryan Gosling.
Sorry for the late update today. Recommendations and collections are still required, huh, huh.
