Chapter 47 Competition coexists
Morris Theater is located in the south of Park City, and its location is not bad.
It was only after five o'clock in the afternoon that Lehman and his party came to the scene after having dinner.
On the publicity board at the entrance, there is a list of the films to be shown, Dream, I Believe, Three Silly Troubles in Bollywood...
His eyes swept over the titles and covers of the films next to him, and there was no impression in his memory.
There was a movie showing at the moment, and it was Lyman's turn next.
So, they stood at the entrance of the theater and waited for a long time.
It was not until after 6 o'clock that the audience came out one after another.
I wasted my time again...
The shaky footage is too eye-catching.
IM not understand.
These audience members passed by Lehmann, and it was not difficult to see from the discussion that they were very dissatisfied with the film that had just been shown.
After a while, Lyman and others began to enter the venue and communicate with the screening staff.
At around 7 o'clock, the interior of the theater, which can accommodate more than 300 people, became full again.
Although the entire creators of Three Silly Bollywood are not well-known, this situation is the norm at the Sundance Film Festival, so people who come here to watch the movie don't care about those.
Therefore, there is no publicity and no show, and the tickets inside the venue are still selling well.
The audience communicated in a low voice with anticipation, holding the official film magazine in their hands, reading some information about Three Silly Bollywood, and expressing their own opinions.
Such a scene is not unfamiliar to Lehmann. He has experienced the scene of the opening ceremony in Venice, and he clearly understands that the most important time is when the next works are released.
The film that was shot and produced will be judged by the audience, and he has become a little uneasy from the beginning.
Still can't ignore what people say about the movie.
Some contradictory hearts really make people unable to calm down.
Lehmann didn't really care about the screenings at the Sundance Film Festival, but the atmosphere at the scene and people's discussions made the whole air slowly warm up, which made people feel like a light on their backs.
It's about to start. With Ryan's words.
The lights in the venue began to go out, and the audience stopped discussing when they saw it, and the screening hall became quiet.
Lyman carefully adjusted his sitting position. Ryan on the right hand side had his legs crossed, full of comfort. Thomas also leaned back on the seat with his legs half-curled. George's sitting posture was very straight and his body was straight.
The screen flashed.
Gradually appear bright.
On a green leaf hangs a pupa.
The chrysalis slowly split open, and a blue butterfly emerged from the chrysalis, spreading its wings.
Suddenly a spot of light appeared, and the butterfly took off gracefully towards the past.
Its wings are vivid, and it also traverses a blue flight path, and finally disappears within the point of light.
Next to it appeared the English letters of the company name - Mann Studio.
Watching this 15-second opening animation, Lehman clenched his fist unconsciously.
It was a hallmark of their studio, and Mann Studios took to the big stage for the first time with the film.
The audience in the exhibition hall was not much touched, and they were still waiting for the start of the main feature of the movie. But Ryan on the side knew the true meaning of this animation. When designing it, Lyman told him: chrysalis into a butterfly is the most beautiful transformation.
After the animation, a scene of a university campus began to appear on the big screen, and there was a subtitle introduction in the screen, starring: Aamir Khan, Salman Josh, Boman Irani... Camera : Thomas, Director: Lyman Rattles.
The cheerful background music also sounded synchronously. In the midst of the enthusiastic melody, the freshmen who hurriedly queued up to sign up and pay the fee,
The green campus scenery, the clean and atmospheric classroom decoration... The quick switching of bright shots builds a life on a university campus.
At this time, the camera was fixed on a freshman who was dragging a large suitcase and slowly walked into the Imperial University of Technology.
The use of light and color is not bad. Bella commented slightly in her heart. As a professional film critic, she often appears in major film festivals. This time I was officially invited by Sundance to watch this movie. It was originally to cope with an errand, but now I have a little interest.
Although it is only a scene of less than 90 seconds in the opening scene, it does not show any green shooting processing. The fast-connecting scenes accurately express the place where the overall story takes place without any sound, which is also very useful. An experiential glimpse into the director's personal skills.
And at least this style of video is not like the movies I watched yesterday. I don't even have the slightest desire to watch it. I don't even know where to start when I write a review afterwards. It's so bad, I really don't know how to write it.
One decision can determine a person's life. When I was very young, oh no, my father said, 'My son will be an excellent engineer in the future' since I was born, and because of this, I'm here now.
The freshman standing at the registration desk followed the team blankly, and the narration and the camera quickly switched to the scene where he was born in the hospital as a child.
The father spoke out loudly a blessing for the child's future life to all relatives and friends, with a hopeful tone.
The child grew up and became a new born in front of him.
After paying the tuition, I went to the dormitory to occupy the bed. On the first night of my admission, the seniors came to tell everyone about the traditions of this college.
In the freshman's perspective, a group of people remove their pants, revealing a variety of underpants, and passively embrace a so-called college tradition.
In an instant, the whole film atmosphere is no longer joyful, but has an indescribable solemnity. The plot change with such a big gap, but there is no sense of disobedience, and it also makes Bella's attention more concentrated.
Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Farhan. The narration sounded again, and continued: This campus story has to start with a late freshman. His name is Lancher, and he will be my good friend.
The camera shifted to Lancher along with the narrator's protagonist, Farhan.
After he arrived late, he saw the scene in front of him, and the desire to survive made him make a quick decision.
Instead of following the tradition as arranged by the senior, he ran into a dormitory instead.
Outside the door, the senior continued to clamor, Lancher did not panic, took off the light bulb in the room, wrapped the wire inside a metal spoon, and stretched it out along the gap of the door.
The senior wanted to give this disobedient freshman a slap in the face. He decided to pee and counted to force the freshman out.
After three beeps, the senior was successfully placed on the ground and curled up by the electric current.
The freshmen laughed unconsciously, including Fahan.
The narration sounded, From this moment on, I knew he would be different from us, Lancher, he is a different person.
The camera freezes, and Fahan smiles happily.
After the freshmen entered the school, they were assigned dormitories. Coincidentally, Lancher and Farhan would live together, as well as another freshman named Raja.
Raja's hands were full of blessing rings, and a bronze statue of Brahma was hung in a corner of the dormitory, and he would burn incense and kneel devoutly every day.
From his mouth, Farhan could know that he came to this school to make a lot of money in his work after graduation. It is also for the sake of your own future.
Three freshmen with very different personalities started their college life with their own expectations.
Lanche is smart and likes to experiment with mechanical theories; Fahan loves to laugh, and usually likes photography; Laga always pulls a face and frowns...
Bella felt that the movie was getting more and more interesting. The director used the form of storytelling to illustrate the characters between the three people. In addition, Fahan's narration has been advancing the rhythm, which also added a sense of drama to the film, and the construction of the picture And the connection also reflects the profound meaning everywhere. The cheerful atmosphere began to make people feel very comfortable.
The three of them went to class together and went back to the dormitory to make an appointment to take a shower.
In this huge campus, there is a sense of relaxation and comfort everywhere.
It makes me miss the good old days when I was reading.
Bella subconsciously looked at the expressions of the other moviegoers, the corners of their mouths raised slightly, obviously immersed in this beauty.
Today is the day when the new students enter the school and the dean speaks. We got up early in the morning and ran to the playground to gather. Fahan's calm narration appeared, making the audience's eyes follow the plot to the playground.
As soon as the camera turned, a ding bell sounded, and the character in the narration of the dean appeared on the screen.
He's solemn, has gray hair, wears glasses, and steers the direction of the bike with one hand.
Oh, by the way, we nicknamed the Dean, Virus. During the narration, the Dean stood at the forefront of the freshmen.
With something in his hand, he talked about the competition theory.
When the scene changed, a young man dressed in shabby clothes, who was the salesman who sold bath products before, also imitated the dean's actions to give a speech.
The tone, demeanor and even the action and content of the speech are almost the same.
What an irony.
After talking about the competition theory, the dean took out a pen from the pocket of his jacket, he showed it to the freshmen present, and said, This pen can be used in space, so it is very rare and also My teacher gave it to me a long time ago, and I hope one day there will be one of the best students as well, and I can turn this pen over to him.
The freshmen who heard the dean's words were very excited, and even Fahan, who had never caught a cold, showed a hint of desire in his eyes.
Everyone raised their hands to express their confidence in getting the pen, but Lancher raised his hand after everyone put down their arms.
Such a move was particularly abrupt among a group of people. Sure enough, the dean asked him what was the problem with raising his hand?
