Chapter 800 A series of full marks

The students of Asian Film Festival stayed in the film trading market for a week and were quite familiar with the various data and knowledge of the Berlin Film Festival. They could be said to be able to do it easily. After learning the rating of "One Man's Lights and Decoration", they were all shocked.

In the past decade, the highest rated movie in the Berlin Film Festival magazine is "The Color of Blood", with a score of 5. This movie is called "Citizen Kane" in the 21st century by many media; now "One Person Decoration" has a score of 9, which is 4, which is close to the full score, which is really amazing!

The students all had an excited blush on their faces, and they felt that they were sure to win, and they said excitedly: "Teacher Zhang, the score of the magazine is close to full marks, Golden Bear should have won!"

Zhang Ran smiled and waved his hand, saying, "It's not that easy. The magazine has always been a counter-barrel. Few movies with the highest awards won the highest awards. Now it's almost a curse. Even a real masterpiece like "Blood is Coming". Therefore, it may not be a good thing to get the magazine's first!"

Zhou Xiaoxi said curiously: "The Aviator is the first in the magazine, but he still got the Golden Lion!"

As the heroine of "The Aviator", Zhang Jingchu still remembers everything that happened in Venice, and said: "The Aviator is the second in the magazine, "The Deep Sea" is the first, but "The Deep Sea" lost to us."

Zhang Zili said firmly: "I have confidence in "One Man's Lights Decoration". If such a good movie cannot win the Golden Bear Award, then there is still the law and will there be a kingly law?" Other students also said: "Yes, we have confidence in "One Man's Lights Decoration"!"

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "It's useless for you group of sycoons to be confident. The key is whether the judges like it or not. If they don't like it, it's useless even if the magazine scores 100. OK, eat it quickly!"

After breakfast, Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu returned to their room to clean up and took the crew to interview with the media. Because there were too many media in the crew of "One Person Decoration", the public relations specially arranged a room for the media to wait, which made the media present feel like they were attending the interview.

The entire interview was a complete round-robin battle. The newspaper agency was changed in fifteen minutes, and the group of people changed in fifteen minutes. However, after an hour of interview, the public relations found that there were too many reporters and they couldn't queue up, so they compressed it and only gave each reporter ten of their interview time.

Just as Zhang Ran was busy accepting an interview, film reviews from all over the world were released one after another, whether in North America, Europe, Asia, and America, adjectives such as "epic works", "master works", and "ultimate greatness" appeared in the evaluations of "One Man with Lights and Decoration" by well-known media in various countries, arousing great curiosity among movie fans from all over the world.

"Movie Manual" is one of the most important film magazines in the world. It advocates author movies and innovation. When "The Aviator" was born, they praised it and gave the movie a full score. This time, "One Person Decoration" not only reproduces multiple parts montages, but also goes further, and naturally receives praise from "Movie Manual" again and a full score.

The "Movie Manual" praises "One Man's Lights and Decoration" not only to analyze how Zhang Ran reappears, but also to innovate the almost lost movie vocabulary, which makes it shine with new charm. "Movie Manual" believes: "In "One Man's Lights and Decoration", Lao Huang, Xiao Yu and Gangzha are the three parts of the movie. The open and multi-perspective narrative brought by these three parts make the whole film a trio of fate with multiple parts, and it is also for viewing.

The crowd provided the possibility of dialogue with the characters in the film. Zhang Ran did not stand in the perspective of God and told a complete and closed story. Lao Huang, Xiao Yu, and Gang Zha are all independent individuals with independent consciousness. The emotions, souls and destinies of the three are intertwined and collided with each other. Everyone in the movie is lonely, and everyone is working hard to get rid of loneliness, but in the end everything is like drawing a circle and returning to the starting point. Everyone is still lonely, even more lonely.

In Zhang Ran's movies, the characters are always lonely, whether it is Cao Lin trapped in time in "Prisoner of Time", Zhou Xu in "Explosive Drummer", Jason who became a madman in "Space-Time Warrior", and Qiao Zhengfei who struggles for flight dreams in "Flyer", only "The Great Tangshan Earthquake" is the exception. In these movies full of loneliness, Zhang Ran is always thinking about the relationship between people and the relationship between people and society. The result of this thinking is finally clearly displayed in Zhang Ran's continuous experimentation of the film language, turning all the thinking into a symphony and blending it with Beethoven's "Ode to Joy". At the end of the movie, when the camera pulls towards the vast universe, when "Ode to Joy" echoes in the universe, the impact and shock brought to me by the movie is as if I clearly saw a dark cloud flying through the sky, but was suddenly illuminated by a sunlight.

Zhang Ran’s genius is unique. He created an impossible movie in which loneliness is connected with hope. He is always looking for new paths and forging a calm, poetic and theoretical art. After Godard grew old, we finally ushered in a director who always insisted on experimenting and exploring the language of film."

At the end of the article, the "Movie Manual" praised: "A Man with Lights and Decoration" is the most adventurous movie we have seen so far. The filming method successfully created a cold and lonely atmosphere. The hard life of various underworld characters is gradually revealed in the conscientious and responsible old policemen. Everyone in the movie is bitter, lonely, and helpless. However, at the end of the movie, it is less than a person with expectation and decoration. "Ode to Joy" echoes in the universe, Zhang Ran makes us see hope again in despair. "The Ninth Symphony" is undoubtedly great, and we see the same great feelings in "A Man with Lights and Decoration". This movie is a dialogue between two great artists, spanning two hundred years of time and space, with music and pictures!"

"Visual and Listening" has always been a loyal supporter of Zhang Ran. Even though "Three Fools" has encountered unprecedented bad reviews in Europe, "Visual and Listening" has given high praise. This time, they gave "One Person's Lights and Decoration" full marks.

In addition to analyzing multi-part montages, the article in "Visual and Audio" also used a lot of space to analyze the composition of the movie: "In composition, the composition technique of handheld shooting and tilted perspective can also be seen everywhere, especially in the description of environmental descriptions of streets, rooms, barbershops, etc. This irrational perspective expands the loneliness of the characters in the city and highlights the loneliness of the characters. The tall buildings in the city in the movie form a strong contrast with the loneliness of the characters. In the process of interacting with the steel slag, this composition hand The rules make the already unstable relationship between the two always in a state of crisis. In contrast, the shots of Huang are made by Huang, who use horizontal compositions, which appear particularly stable, giving people a feeling of facing reality and being down-to-earth. It can be said that the mirror of "One Person Decoration" does not emphasize the narrative effect of the traditional sense of the rise and fall of the curve. The strong metaphorical color, the strong shape and emotional expression make the whole movie a song of the lonely, making the whole movie exude a faint sentimental atmosphere."

Variety Show also gives full marks: "Zhang Ran's "One Person Decoration" is a classical symphony. The film shows the strong multi-vocality of the voices in the process of expressing the theme. From the individual to the gender to the society, through the incomprehension and difficulty of communicating between different characters, it reveals the profound contradictions between people from shallow to deep, and strongly reflects the loneliness and hardship of individuals in modern social life."

"Empire" did not like Zhang Ran very much in the past, but this time it unexpectedly gave full marks: ""One Man's Lights Decoration" reminds people of the works of those lost movie masters, and they are the filmmakers Zhang Ran admires very much: Kurosawa Akira, Hitchcock, and Bergman. Good movies should be like good and excellent poems, giving people strength and nourishing the soul, so that our souls will not lose their direction in the dark! "One Man's Lights Decoration" is such a movie!"

"Variety Show" also presented a full score: "A man with lights and color" is a unique movie. In the movie, you can gain the most charming character portrayal since "Eavesdropping Conspiracy". Zhang Ran always lets the characters slowly approach our hearts, and then grasp our hearts, allowing us to experience the joy, mystery and power brought by the movie, making us cry and laugh. This is a true masterpiece!"

In addition, Italy's "Movie", France's "Main Movie", and Japan's "Movie Daily" were all given with full marks. The New York Times said it was "one of the extraordinary masterpieces of this century", while the British "Guardian" said it was "one of the best films in the past decade". "One Man's "Dearing with a Light" that was almost scolded by film critics in China has now shined in Berlin and won praise.

Because the media and film critics' evaluation of "One Man's Lights and Decoration" was too high, a large number of German audiences flocked to the cinema that morning to see it, resulting in a shortage of movie tickets. The organizing committee had to add three more games, but they were sold out in less than half an hour. The organizing committee had no choice but to add three more midnight games.

Chinese journalists in Berlin also quickly sent back the news that "One Person Decoration" was sought after in Berlin. What is "sensational" Berlin, what is "highest score in history" and what is "promoted by overseas media", they are all extremely dazzling titles. After watching it, it makes people feel that Zhang Ran has won the Golden Bear Award.

These reports were quickly forwarded by netizens to major forums, igniting the enthusiasm of movie fans, especially Zhang Ran’s fans.

A few days ago, "One Man Decoration" was scolded by many film critics. Now the movie is well received by praise from abroad. Fans of Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu suddenly felt proud. While cheering and celebrating, they went to various film critics to leave messages under their Weibo and blogs, sarcastic.

"Sorry, my Zhang Ran is the first in the field magazine score now, and it is a record-breaking score!"

"The "Youth Movie Manual" was born from a copycat "Movie Manual". Now the "Movie Manual" has given "One Person's Lights and Decoration" full marks. Chen Qingsong, you can come out and take two steps!"

"Haha, let's have a slap in the face! You can also become a film critic if you post movie resources online. The level is really too low!"

"That's right, the level of Chinese films is very low, and the level of Chinese film critics is the level of Chinese film critics!"

Chen Qingsong and his group were almost angry to death. They felt so depressed. They were extremely complaining to the overseas media. What are you doing? Zhang Ran is a lackey of the government. If such a person doesn’t criticize him, you still praise him like this. What’s the good thing about this mess of "One Person Decoration"? Are you wrong?

But they didn't have the confidence to challenge "Movie Manual" and "Visual and Audio", pretended to be ostrich, turned off the comments on Weibo, and at most they replied "not as good as brainless fans."
