rewrite life

Considering the overall background of the movie, Evan and Tang Shi set the shooting time at the end of July and early August. After two months of shooting, the whole movie was officially completed in late September and early October. After nearly a month of post-production, due to various causes and effects, "Wonderful Journey" unfortunately missed the Water City Film Festival, and chose to be screened directly in the Stars and Stripes on December [-]st.

However, it is quite different from other independent films when they were released without surprise. Because of Tang Shi's hype thinking more than ten years ahead and the super operation ability of Lu Hengzhi and Pique's team, "Wonderful Journey" was thrown out from the very beginning of the promotion. All kinds of dizzying gimmicks.Under the banner of Leon White and the Al couple, rubbing against Lucas and Catherine's "silver screen couple" officials, and even taking advantage of the global hit of "The Black Man 3".Before it was released, the hype of the movie was already in full swing, which was familiar to everyone.

Similarly, because of the high-profile style of "Wonderful Journey" during the publicity period, even the most sensitive topic of homosexuality was unabashedly raised, which also attracted the boycott of conservatives in the Stars and Stripes and certain religious groups .The Utah movie theater, the most conservative in the Stars and Stripes, even issued a notice to the whole society, simply prohibiting the release of this movie.

Of course, the reaction of these groups or regimes also attracted fierce protests from Mr. Al, Leon White, and even diehard fans of Lucas and Catherine, as well as Chinese living in various states and counties of the Stars and Stripes.However, there is a saying that the topic is becoming more and more popular. In the process of confrontation between several fans and these conservatives, the movie "Wonderful Journey" has become more and more popular, and the clamor has spread.

Some people think that Leon White and the Al couple's participation in this sensational movie is simply the biggest failure of their careers. They think that after the movie is released, the stardom of Leon White and the Al couple will end here Nothing can be achieved.

Some people think that although the choice of Leon White and the Al couple is a little bolder, they are undoubtedly aimed at awards.After all, the unspoken rules of Bad Funwood and even the film industry are well known. The more cutting-edge and sensitive issues that reflect the current social situation, the more favored they will be by those academics.

So Leon White's choice, in the eyes of those fans who believe in him, is a signal that Leon White no longer sticks to commercial blockbusters, no longer disappoints his acting talent, and is ready to work hard again.

As for the Al couple...Although there are many movie fans who are skeptical about their choice, more people have confidence in Mr. Al in view of his reputation as an award-winning professional in "Bad Funwood".

Even Lucas and Catherine, who only made a few cameos, were discussed by the media, thinking that this was the first time this "silver screen couple" appeared on the screen in a wedding dress. For us, maybe this scene will be a classic lens worthy of their collection.

Compared with these star-studded supporting actors, the film's other Chinese actor, Tang Shi, has received very little attention.If it weren't for some Chinese citizens in the Stars and Stripes who have been paying attention to this boy with yellow skin and black eyes like them, I am afraid that the entire media would have forgotten this newcomer.

It is also because of this that the entire Stars and Stripes are now paying great attention to the film "Wonderful Journey".Even in the cold season of December, even if it was released at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, it did not stop the enthusiasm of movie fans.

Similarly, it did not stop the enthusiasm of journalists, film critics, and even music critics.

For the professionals in Bad Funwood, fringe movies like "Wonderful Journey" with small production, small investment, and even starring black-eyed and yellow-skinned Chinese, under normal circumstances, are absolutely It won't attract anyone's attention.These arrogant white people would rather pay attention to any saliva drama that people complain about, and they will not be interested in paying attention to movies with Chinese actors.

However, "Wonderful Journey" broke everyone's attention from the very beginning. First, it invited the youngest actor who had amazed the whole Bad Fun Hollywood with his acting skills in childhood, and then disappeared from everyone in the bad production step by step. The Golden Circle Award went to Leon White, and then persuaded the semi-moving Al and Jennifer, who had been away from the big screen for more than 30 years, to play supporting roles.It even persuaded Lukas and Catherine, arguably the hottest actors and actresses in bad fun in recent years, to play cameo roles without pay.And also persuaded Al, who has never sung the national anthem in front of people, to sing the theme song of the film...

This series of combined attacks is like magic, firmly attracting people's attention.So after getting the news of the release of "A Wonderful Journey", everyone couldn't wait to come to the theater.

Lalmeyer is a well-known film critic, and has always preferred to comment on those relatively small literary romance films.However, as a child who grew up in a Catholic family, even though Lal does not have any beliefs, he still hates people or things that are contrary to Catholicism-such as homosexuality.

Therefore, after he learned that Leon White and the Al couple both participated in this movie by coincidence, Lal's first reaction was disbelief, and the next reaction was grandstanding, and then he decided that he must be in this movie. I watched it for the first time, and then criticized this heresy movie for nothing.

With such a mentality, Lalmeyer stood in the cold wind and waited in a long queue with the Als, Leon White and even the diehard fans of Lucas and Catherine in the cold winter night with clear snow. The team finally bought a movie ticket and entered the movie theater.

The first time Lalmeyer entered the theater, he subconsciously looked at the crowd inside, and found that unlike other literary and romantic films, the attendance rate of the premiere premiere was as high as 70%.It can be seen that Leon White and several other supporting actors are extremely popular.

Lalmeyer curled his lips in displeasure, found his own seat and sat down.Next to him was a pair of young lovers in their twenties, holding popcorn and coke and chatting endlessly.From their conversation, Lal learned that they were fans of Lucas and Catherine, and they came to watch the movie just to see Lucas and Catherine in wedding dresses in the movie.

During the 10-minute wait, the blond girl was full of nympho, and never mentioned a word about the plot of "A Wonderful Journey".And the young men and women next to him were almost in the same situation.Even the older audience in the back row came towards Al.

Lalmeyer curled his lips in disdain again, imprinting a brand of hype on "A Wonderful Journey" in his heart.He even quietly complained about his idol, Al, with a feeling of being indisputable.

And in this mood full of suffocation, the movie started.

An animated image of a candy wrapped in colorful sugar paper first appeared on the screen, and then a pile of candies fell on the ground, the camera gradually zoomed out, and a cute little doll, carved in pink and jade, rushed down with a mouth wrapped in its mouth The sugar bowl kept shaking, and finally the wrapped sugar bowl fell on a pile of candies, and the logo of "Candy Studio" appeared on the screen.

The bright colors and cute logo make the audience smile at the first sight.Even Lalmeyer couldn't help relaxing his frown, thinking of his six-month-old son.

Immediately after the screen turned, a big cake appeared, filled with candles, and the voice-over came from everyone talking about blessings and urging the candles to be blown out.Then the camera slowly moves upwards along the candle, and a pair of hands with crossed fingers tightly intertwined appears.Those hands were fair and slender, with neatly manicured nails, showing that the owner had a good life and good upbringing.

After closing his eyes and making a wish, the owner of the hand lowered his head and blew out the candle vigorously, and said to himself: "Happy Birthday To Me!"

The eyes that opened at that moment, the dark and deep clear pupils that seemed to be able to see through the heart, and the incomparably bright smile on the delicate face made the audience in front of the big screen stunned for a while.Before he came back to his senses, he saw that young man with a delicate face suddenly fell to the ground, and everyone was puzzled for a while.

Then the scene shifted to the hospital, where Chinese teenager Tang learned from the doctor that he was terminally ill, because he was discovered too late and his condition had deteriorated to an advanced stage. Even with all-out treatment, he only had three months left to live .During these three months, Tang had to endure all kinds of pain caused by radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other means.

When Satan tells you that you only have the last three months of your life, how should you choose?

Maybe a thousand people will have a thousand different answers, but our protagonist Tang resolutely chose to give up treatment, and in the last journey of his life, he chose to take a walk-and-go trip.

Fans watching the movie in the cinema at this moment did not realize that when Tang faced the doctor, he said, "Since no matter how hard you try, you can't keep it, so forget it. Let me die at the last moment of my life." Be self-willed once, take a trip as soon as you say it, and because of the free and easy optimism contained in it, it will become the most widely circulated line next year.It was even purchased at a high price by an international travel website and used in the advertising words for this year's promotion.

But when Tang uttered these words, everyone suddenly felt very happy.It seemed that the shackles that bound him all day long and couldn't breathe were suddenly loosened.This made the audience who watched the movie couldn't help but envy Tang's free and easy.There was even a young girl who put down the popcorn in her hand, looked at Tang on the screen with heart-shaped eyes, and whispered, "So handsome!"

After saying these words again, Tang left the hospital without hesitation.When I got home, I took out the suitcase I had bought for a long time and didn’t use it for a long time. I simply packed my luggage and took the painkillers and treatment medicine prescribed by the doctor. I was reluctant to part with my family and friends who even cried After saying goodbye, Zhuang Ruo easily left home and embarked on an unknown journey.

At this time, the picture in the movie is bright, blue sky, white clouds, bright colors, Tang's figure keeps moving forward, gradually blending into the dazzling sunlight.It seems that the road ahead is also bright, and there has never been bad luck or darkness.This surprised the audience who originally thought about watching a bitter drama.While admiring Tang's free and easy, he also had a vague expectation for the next plot.

Then director Evan deliberately added a close-up of a picturesque scenery in this episode.The beautiful scenery and tourists in pairs are in stark contrast to Tang, who looks sunny but alone.It also made the audience feel happy after enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way, and at the same time secretly looking forward to the other protagonist of the film.

At this time, the entire movie has only passed seven or eight minutes.

Under the expectation of the movie fans, Tang, traveling alone, arrives in a small town with beautiful scenery. Here, he attends the wedding of a couple and meets Jason, another leading actor in the movie.

When Catherine in a white off-the-shoulder wedding dress appeared on the big screen shyly holding a bouquet, the audience in the theater couldn't help but exclaim.Because Catherine is so beautiful in her wedding dress.It is countless times more beautiful than the vase heroine in "Black Man 3".Maybe the woman in the wedding dress is really the most beautiful. Catherine on the screen is not only beautiful, but also has a happy smile on her face, so sweet that she is almost boring.

And Lucas, who was dressed in a groom's gown, was also exceptionally handsome. The two newlyweds showed their love unscrupulously in front of the camera. The high-definition close-ups on the cover of a fashion magazine also made the big screen look at the handsome man. The audience who only bought tickets for the beautiful girl smiled knowingly and enjoyed it.Immediately there was an urge to collect posters and DVDs.

The beautiful blond girl next to Lalmeyer whispered "It's not in vain".

And then the scenes of Tang drinking, singing and dancing with the bride and groom were also very warm and happy.This kind of lens performance that has always been bright and cheerful, with a small and fresh style, also made film critics frown secretly.Because everyone knows that if this kind of gay-themed film wants to win awards, it will definitely not have a happy ending.Now that the style of the whole movie is so clear, it makes many film critics a little worried.

Some people even shook their heads secretly, suspecting that the director's ability is not enough, which leads to the inconsistency between the style of the picture and the theme of the film.

At this time, the film has developed to the point where Tang, who is traveling alone, meets the young traveler Jason, and meets to travel together.

Seeing this, many film critics and audiences have to admit that Leon White chose this movie as his comeback on the big screen, which is actually quite flattering.Because Lyon on the big screen is rendered by this bright lens, his golden blonde hair and bright smile are so dazzling and eye-catching.The hormonal aura emanating from her body was so charming, the girls who watched were blushing and heartbeating.Just relying on the performance of these chicks, at least some of Lyon's actions are successful-even if the film can't reflect his acting skills, at least he can reflect his handsomeness, then Lyon's road after his comeback is at least to be a vase idol is no problem.

However, the following plot of the film makes these self-proclaimed professional film critics temporarily neglect to comment.Because Al's old Tom and Jennifer's Jenny are finally here.In view of the superb acting skills of the two old actors, and the sensational scene where the Als and his wife were almost present, all the old movie fans who lived through that time, as well as the young movie fans with rich feelings, were moved to tears by the performance of the Als and his wife.

And then Tang made dumplings for Jason, shared tea and even played the tune with leaves, which made all the audience's eyes widen in surprise.For the former, it was the foodie's instinct that was envious of Jason's food.As for the latter, film critics represented by Lalmeyer are even doubting the authenticity of these bridges. They don't know whether the ancient, mysterious and long-established Huaguo really has such peculiar skills, but if these bridges If the skills shown by Duan are all true, then tomorrow's entertainment report will definitely make headlines - it is called "magic oriental skills".

And amidst the surprise and unbelievable exclamations of all the audience and film critics, the film gradually came to an end.Jason's provocative french fries, the lingering night of the two, Tang's reluctant departure, the helplessness and regret of old Tom watching with cold eyes, and the madness and fragility of Jason after waking up, day after day, year after year of waiting with looking for...

Until the end, I watched Jason change from a young man to a man, and then to an old man. Even after the old Tom and his wife died of old age, he left the hotel and waited persistently for a lifetime.And every autumn, I have to go for a walk in the wheat field with a cane. Every night on the [-]th night of the Lunar New Year in Huaguo, I have to make dumplings. I put two sets of bowls and plates on the table and waited quietly. Dumpling's movements ranged from rusty to proficient, and then to numb...

The scenery of the town is still beautiful and picturesque, the golden rice fields are still the same, and even the blue sky and white clouds have not changed.The style of the whole film is bright from beginning to end, and the picture is warm from beginning to end.But when all the audience saw the end, they felt a sense of sadness and despair.

Want to cry, but can't cry.

As the old Tom in the film said, the greatness of love is never bound by time, geography, or even space.It does not depend on life or death.

But to use an old saying in Huaguo to point the question, it means that the love does not know where it started, and it goes deeper and deeper.

In such emotions, the film finally ends.As the theme song of "The Town Hotel" sung by Al Robert sounded, the music critics who had been waiting for a long time could not feel their eyes light up.After watching the movie just now, and hearing this song again, all movie fans and music critics have to admit that this song is the most suitable at this time.

Lalmeyer stared blankly at the big screen that was completely black, and heaved a long sigh.

Perhaps, the true meaning of love has nothing to do with time, space and region, or even life and death.Of course, regardless of gender.

He could already imagine that "A Wonderful Journey" would dominate all the newspaper headlines tomorrow morning.

Even though he was not reconciled, Lalmeyer had to admit that this small investment and small production, even a niche work that no one was optimistic about before it was released, undoubtedly became popular.
