"No, that's a pile of rubbish! It's just talking to myself, talking to myself..."

"You are not watching the movie seriously. Those confessions are closely related to the plot..."

"No, you should have over-interpreted it. The whole movie is just falling into your own emotions and groaning/groaning without illness."

"No disease moaning/groaning? Are you sure we watched the same work? That man, he witnessed his mother committing suicide at the age of seven, and then his grandfather completely ignored him, immersed in his own world, he was alone Growing up strong, trying to save those innocent and immature souls, but there is nothing he can do. Don’t you understand? Because he has not received this education, because he is a bad group, he doesn’t know what to do? I'm afraid that my mistake will cause more harm."

"So he blamed himself and killed the girl student?"

"Jesus Christ! What are you talking about? Killing that schoolgirl? You must be joking with me, are you kidding me? He tried to help that schoolgirl, but he was helpless!"

"Then he killed it. In my opinion, he can help her, but he refused."

"You mean, an underage girl throws her arms at the teacher, so the teacher should open her heart?"

"Hey, hey, you all deviated from the theme of the movie, and also deviated from the theme of the discussion. This movie is about education and about society. What we are discussing now is, does the movie really discuss these topics..."

"Who said that! He must explain clearly, what does it mean that he killed the girl student? Absurd! Absolutely absurd!"

"Otherwise? Are you still saying that society killed her? This is a Hollywood movie, not a French New Wave or Italian modern realism movie!"

...

Arguing endlessly, the red-faced arguing couldn't stop at all, even standing on the street, they seemed to want to roll up their sleeves and fight.

In fact, Katarina Koffler had already rolled up her sleeves, and her heavy coat in winter was directly opened, her rosy cheeks even faintly sweating. She was not alone in the fight. A large group of people surrounded her, about a dozen or so. You said and I said, the whole discussion was so lively.

Mark Lacante stood beside him, helpless. To be more precise, he wanted to join the discussion, but the speed of you and me was so fast, like a machine gun, he couldn’t get in at all, let alone. Discouraged.

Christine Schutler and Chuck Smith, who stood by, didn’t care at all. Christine yelled from time to time and joined the discussion, “Don’t you think Lanly’s performance is really too powerful?” Or maybe , "Lan Li is so handsome that his legs feel weak", and so on.

Looking like a revolving lantern, he quickly scanned the crowd in front of him. Mark was angry and funny, and he exhaled a long breath, trying to clear the stale air in his chest. Not thinking, he saw Lan Li not far away at a glance.

The entrance of the cinema is a prosperous street, lined with skyscrapers and large-scale shopping malls on both sides, and street-side shops show the city's leisure life, bookstores, coffee shops, flower shops and restaurants. Mark and his party came to the cinema again at noon today to watch "Transcendence" for the second time.

Yesterday’s premiere, the amount of information was too much, and the sense of shock was too strong, that they overlooked many details, the details of the performance, the details of the lines, and the details of the story. Therefore, they must read it again today.

After watching the movie, they couldn’t wait to share their opinions. Unexpectedly, after discussing and discussing, the team grew bigger and bigger, unknowingly, like a snowball, a large group of people gathered together in a hustle and bustle. Standing in front of the movie theater when he found an open space in time, he was already noisy.

Mark didn't know how things got to this point, but what was even more surprising was that he actually found the protagonist they discussed——

In the courtyard of the open-air coffee house about a dozen steps away, Lan Li is enjoying a cup of coffee leisurely and comfortably. But from another perspective, this is a film festival where actors and directors can be seen everywhere, not to mention that Lan Li has always been an actor who actively joins the ranks of fans.

It is not surprising to see Lan Li at the entrance of the cinema.

No sunglasses, no hat, and no cover, sitting generously on a chair, a cobalt blue polka dot shirt, casual and messy curly hair, a comfortable look on his face, low-key and plain, but involuntarily attracted Looking around.

Sitting directly opposite Lanly was Jack Gyllenhaal. The two were chatting comfortably. Jack was the main speaker, while Lanly was listening politely and earnestly, adding a few words from time to time, Jack's The expression suddenly seemed as if the spring breeze wrinkled the lake water, bright and bright.

"Let’s ask about Lan Li!" Before his brain knew it, Mark blurted out, "Guys, guys!" The second sound was a shocking cry, "Lan Li, let’s just ask. Lan Li, these controversies have come to the ground!" As he said, Mark took the lead and rushed over.

The others stood there, stunned, and looked in Mark's direction. Then they also understood, and a group of people rushed over in a fierce manner.

Fortunately, the coffee house was open-air. At this time, Lan Li was sitting in the garden outside. A dozen or twenty people swarmed up around the wooden fence without affecting other customers. However, such a scene still made people look over.

"Len Li, do you think this movie is Henry's self-talk?"

"Of course he doesn't think so, because this is his role. You should ask Tony Kaye!"

"But he is an actor, he has the most say!"

...

The chattering arguing did not back down. The fierce scene looked like there was an antagonism. Lan Li and Jack exchanged a glance, and both laughed. Jack raised his right hand and pressed it down. "You should at least give this gentleman a chance to speak. Otherwise, we will never know the answer."

The quarrel gradually calmed down, Lan Li chuckled lightly and said to Jack, "Sure enough, people with experience are different." A joke made Jack laugh out loud.

Afterwards, Lan Li raised his head and looked at the fanatical faces in front of him. There were all kinds of people, including young people with childishness, homeless men with beards and scum, and middle-aged men in casual clothes. Men, as well as beautiful women dressed up... different ages and different professions all gathered together.

This is the power of the movie, but also his honor.

"First, yes, I agree, this film focuses on Henry's self-talking. As an audience, it is actually rude and unreasonable, forcibly throwing out the world of an unknown stranger, and then watching him in pain It's ups and downs, always spinning in place, unable to find an exit. No, objectively speaking, I don't like this movie. It can even be said that I hate this movie. It's too selfish."

Lan Li's answer caused the crowd in front of him to start commotion. Those opponents lifted their chins and looked at the other supporters triumphantly. Although they didn't speak, the expressions in their eyes couldn't be more clear.

The supporters panic immediately, and Catalina can't wait to yell, "But those monologues are all connected with the plot."

"Yes." Lan Li said affirmatively, "but, I don't like it."

The clear, simple and straightforward answer silenced the crowd for a while, and Lan Li went on to say, "In the final analysis, this is Henry's monologue, this is Henry's story. As an audience, why should I listen to a downcast teacher? What about the inner monologue? I think Tony is quite unreasonable at this point and forced everything over. He has the right to do this, and I have the right not to like it."

At this time, the opponents raised their hands and cheered to their heart's content.

Lan Li shrugged with a natural expression, and then saw Jack's playful expression, "Are you serious?"

Lan Li didn't laugh, but just picked up the coffee and took a sip. He is not joking, it is true.

From the perspective of the audience, he prefers movies that leave behind rhyme and reflection. The director is responsible for telling the story, and then hides his own thoughts in the lens and the story, allowing the audience to interpret; like "transcendence", with Henry The monologue to explain and interpret ~www.novelhall.com~ is not only too straightforward, but also too rough.

Katarina was stunned. Christine, who was standing next to him, couldn't bear it, and asked in a loud voice, "Then, don't you like this movie of yours?"

"Ha." Lan Li put down his coffee cup, "I won't say I like this movie, and I won't say I hate this movie." Now everyone stopped doing it and accused Lan Li of quibbling, all Everyone unanimously pointed the finger at Lan Li, causing Jack to sit next to him and laugh.

Lan Li did not defend himself. After everyone calmed down, he said, "I am an actor, and the movie is in the promotion period. What are you expecting me to say?" So frank, it makes people unable to refute, so everyone's His expression became weird, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

Lan Li went on to say, "Go back to the movie. Does Henry's self-talk make sense? Yes, of course, these lines are the result of serious thoughts by the screenwriter, director, and actors. The point is, Do the audience understand these monologues? Or is the audience willing to understand?"

"As I said just now, these lines are linked to the plot as well as to the performance. The audience is willing to calm down, listen to these lines, then interpret the metaphors and hints behind them, and re-examine the story. This is naturally It couldn’t be better. But if you don’t want to, you can hate this movie as much as you like. I think Tony won’t mind.”

Lan Li's face was always smiling, chatting and laughing like a spring breeze, expressing his position, but with an open mind, embracing all opinions, criticism, praise, opposition, and support.

As a result, the opponents standing next to them suddenly became dissatisfied, "In the final analysis, you are still selling your own movies. After talking so much, you still like your movies. If you say it, you don't say it."
