Millennium director
Chapter 19 Movies from the Mysterious East
Wu Yuan's version of "The Night the Comet Came" is a fast-paced movie full of suspense and conflict.
The 92-minute movie plot passed by in a flash, leaving an open ending.
As the subtitles came on after the film, warm cheers and applause erupted in the screening hall. Whether it was Chinese compatriots or foreign friends, their faces were full of surprise.
"Parallel time and space is not unusual. What is magical is the chaotic life after the intersection of parallel time and space. It is really scary after watching it!"
"With extremely low cost, a pretty good story was constructed based on dialogue and settings!"
"From parallel universes to thinking about human nature, Isn't this what most people are doing at the cost of killing "oneself" for happiness?"
"When I realized that none of them were the same person in that room, that moment was absolutely horrifying. This is a real thriller, okay? You can watch it again!"
"This is actually a genuine horror movie. Although there are no monsters, limbs, or blood, it has the most essential thing in horror movies, which is to be afraid of yourself!"
The audience couldn't wait to chat with each other. They were so interested in the plot of the movie that watching it once was not enough to understand all the details of the entire movie.
Turning his head and looking at the surprised and excited faces behind him, Wu Yuan finally felt relieved. He breathed a long sigh of relief, led the crew and creators to the screen, and bowed deeply to the audience. :
“Thank you all for coming to watch our film, and thank you very much for your affirmation of the film.
He thanked me first in Chinese and then in English.
Not all of the dozen foreigners present could understand English, but Ritsa did, and she responded loudly in English: "This movie will be the most surprising movie of this film festival! "
"Amazing!"
Wu Yuan raised his head, took a deep look at her, and nodded again: "Thank you, thank you for your evaluation."
Although the first premiere of "The Night the Comet Came" in Sitges had a small audience, and most of them were local Chinese, the response from the audience was very good, which made all the creators very happy.
After a period of excitement, the audience began to leave in an orderly manner, and the film's creative team was also preparing to leave the theater.
Chen Kun, who had not yet passed the excitement, took out the big front door that he brought from the capital after exiting the theater. He took one of Wu Yuan's fingers and squatted on the roadside at the door in a very inconspicuous manner and started smoking.
"Hiss~" Chen Kun took a deep breath of the cigarette, enjoying the pleasure of the smoke passing through his lungs. After slowly exhaling the mist, his eyes flashed with excitement: "Is our movie going to be a hit?"
"I saw that the audience was full of praise for the movie after watching it!"
"Probably." Wu Yuan, who was also puffing on a cigarette, nodded fiercely: "This is a movie without any cultural barriers. Anyone on earth can understand it and be attracted by the suspense in it. Attracted by the atmosphere and parallel world.
"I believe this film will be a hit at this film festival."
While he was talking about making a splash, what Wu Yuan was thinking about in his heart was how much money he could receive from the copyright and adaptation fees if the film's fame could be spread.
In 1999, the Pang brothers from Hong Kong made a Thai film "Silent Fire". This was a thriller action film with a low budget and also focused on the B-level film market.
The North American rights to the film were sold for $800,000, and together with other regional rights, the total was over $1 million.
Wu Yuan feels that his "The Night the Comet Came" is definitely better than "Silent Fire" in terms of market value, especially in the North American DVD rental market.
Without watching this movie three or five times, there is no way to fully understand all the details and foreshadowing in the movie. It naturally belongs to the DVD market!
As long as you get your name out there at the Sitges Fantastic Film Festival, you won't have to worry about selling at a high price!
At least it should be better than "Silent Fire", right?
"Hey, you two, stop squatting there and smoking."
A burst of shouting interrupted Wu Yuan and Chen Kun's thoughts.
Zeng Li crossed his arms and stood in the headwind area ten steps away from the two of them. He shouted at them with a look of disgust on his face: "One of you is the director and the other is the leading actor. Please pay attention to your image!"
Wu Yuan and Chen Kun looked at each other, laughed, took a final puff of cigarette, extinguished the unburned cigarette, carefully put it back into the cigarette case, and followed Zeng Li's footsteps.
"Let's go back to the hotel!"
On the other side, Ritsa returned home after watching the movie. She immediately turned on her computer, logged into a local film forum in Sitges, and couldn't wait to start commenting on "The Night the Comet Came."
["Coherence" - a suspenseful science fiction film from the mysterious East]
"As a low-budget movie, its sense of immersion is not inferior to those of big-budget movies, or even better than those of big-budget movies!"
"It has no complicated and changeable scenes, and even the male and female protagonists have never gone upstairs. The film focuses on the first floor where everyone gathers, the street at the door, and the two cars."
"Although there are only these changes of location, the movie is not boring at all, but full of unknowns and suspense."
"Because after the movie gets better, every minute the nerves are tensed and eager to know the truth. Even the few scene changes and the cooperation of a few actors can make people feel the pressing step by step. An oppressive tension.”
"I don't want to spoil too much about the specific content of the movie, but I guarantee that this is a good movie that will make you unable to calm down for a long time after watching it!"
"Especially the phone call at the end that brought me back to reality. The setting was so awesome that it gave me chills down my spine!"
"After watching this movie, I understand a truth - everyone is the best version of themselves."
“No matter how much you regret not working hard at that time, or losing an opportunity, this is a test given to you by God, and it will be difficult to change it if you do it again, because even if it is an accidental factor, what has happened has become inevitable. "
"We describe endless possible selves over and over again, which is nothing more than regrets about our past and perfect dreams."
"If you feel confused, confused, or dissatisfied with your current situation, then please go to the cinema and watch "Coherence" again!"
"The movie will give you the answer!"
As a town that holds film festivals all year round, most of the local residents in Sitges are extremely interested in movies, and the annual Fantasy Film Festival is particularly attentive and concerned.
And Ritsa is one of the opinion leaders among the local audience.
When her post was posted online, it immediately attracted the attention and replies of many local movie fans.
Especially the dozen or so local residents who also came to watch the premiere, they all echoed below:
"I also went to see it. It is indeed a very exciting movie. Watching it once is not enough!"
"Can anyone introduce this director from the East? His shooting techniques are amazing!"
"It's an amazing indoor science fiction film. The idea is great!"
"It seems that there are theoretical loopholes and cannot withstand scrutiny, but an entertaining movie can arouse questions and in-depth thinking in this way, which undoubtedly produces an effect that most movies cannot do!"
“Worth seeing it!”
As this post was pushed to the forefront of the forum, more and more people paid attention to this magical movie...
This night was not peaceful.
