"This wave of 66666, suddenly I think this old man is cute!"
"We support LGBT, so we have a separate themed competition unit and the main competition unit emmm, why don't we just stop coming?"
"As someone who has watched two movies, I have a saying that "Cinema Paradiso" really beats "Annie in the Lake" purely in terms of movie quality. However, "Annie in the Lake" is a welfare film. you know!"
"What the hell, a welfare movie? Real or fake?"
"Look at the two heroines, both of whom have great figures. They actually made welfare films and won the Best Actress Award. Forgive me for my low education. I only have one sentence to express my feelings!"
However, no matter what, this Venice Film Festival really put on a show.
Even better than the Cannes Film Festival.
Especially when it comes to politically correct films about LGBT, they show off their talents and directly distinguish the Venice Film Festival from other film festivals.
Look, we are not affected, but I leave you speechless. No other film festival has it. Our Venice Film Festival has specially opened a separate competition unit for this type of film. Isn’t this enough support?
What is a little embarrassing is that although the director of "Cinema Paradiso" is Li Yi, this movie is always a foreign language film. If it wants to be released in China, it must be an imported film.
Of course, with the blessing of Li Yi's aura, this doesn't matter.
It is necessary to strike while the iron is hot.
In particular, "Cinema Paradiso" just won the Special Jury Award, Best Director, and Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival.
It can be said that it is at a time when the popularity is booming. At the same time, the attention of this movie has never been treated as a literary film.
However, the domestic film schedule of "Cinema Paradiso" is still not high.
Theaters are not fools. "Cinema Paradiso" is awesome. It was the biggest winner at the Venice Film Festival and was praised by countless media.
But it still can't be changed. This is a literary film.
Of course, compared to other literary and artistic films, the schedule of "Cinema Paradiso" is quite good.
"Cinema Paradiso" did not premiere with much fanfare. It was an imported film, and it was also a literary and artistic film. Premieres are usually used to promote movies. As a literary and artistic film, "Cinema Paradiso" was promoted. But the effect is no worse than those of commercial blockbusters. What kind of bicycle do you want?
Of course, the most important thing is that the leading actors of "Cinema Paradiso" are almost not famous in China, so even if they are promoted, it will only be Li Yi shirtless. For this reason, Li Yi simply canceled the premiere.
There was no specific schedule for the film's domestic release, it was just a matter of striking while the iron was hot, taking advantage of the popularity of the Venice Film Festival to go straight to the movie.
September 15th!
As we all know, September is definitely not a popular month.
The summer vacation has just ended and students have started school. The whole month of September is not a popular period.
Of course, this also has the advantage that there are no particularly strong competitors in the same period.
In the screening hall, Du Xianghai looked around. The occupancy rate was about 90%, with only a few empty seats.
I couldn't help but sigh at how awesome Li Yi's appeal was.
You must know that this is a literary film. Although this theater is located in the city center, such an attendance rate is still enough to make people look at it.
In fact, the movie "Cinema Paradiso", regardless of whether it is a literary movie or a commercial movie, for movie fans who have not seen this movie, they have been waiting for food for a long time. There is no way, it is time to warm up. It's so damn long.
Moreover, Li Yi made several headlines during this period, and then became the biggest winner at the Venice Film Festival.
Therefore, although the film schedule on the first day was not high, the attendance rate was definitely eye-catching. Of course, such an attendance rate can only mean that Li Yi's appeal is indeed very strong.
But the performance of subsequent movies is the key.
"Don't you like literary movies? Why are you here?"
"Are movies directed by dogs also divided into literary and commercial ones?"
"That's right. Anyway, I just came to watch the peep show. This movie has kept me interested for too long!"
"Just because the dog director won the Golden Lion Award, I have to come and support him no matter what."
Du Xianghai couldn't help but smile. Looking at the country, Li Yi was probably the only one with such appeal, right?
Are the movies directed by Dog also divided into literary and commercial?
This is something that many movie fans are talking about.
Because Li Yi's movies, whether they win awards or not, are really hard to say in terms of box office, and their reputations are almost always top-notch.
Therefore, many movie fans tend to be more patient when watching Li Yi's movies.
As the lights dimmed and the big screen came on, most of the fans fell silent.
"Cinema Paradiso" was released at the Venice Film Festival, but in fact, many domestic movie fans and critics have not seen it.
Some people who go to Venice may not be able to buy tickets for this movie.
There was no way, it was too popular. At the Venice Film Festival, "Cinema Paradiso" only had a few screenings, and demand really exceeded supply.
So the more we hear about how awesome this movie is, the more people are itching to know how awesome it is?
Now you can finally see it!
"Cinema Paradiso" is really not fast-paced, and it basically uses the two-minute shot of white curtains fluttering in the sea-facing windows at the beginning to declare that this movie is a literary movie.
Because how can a normal commercial movie do this?
It's strange that movies are like this. If the critics are satisfied, the audience will be bored!
As soon as "Cinema Paradiso" opened, the audience in the theater was directly divided into two parts.
"What are these?"
"Are you going to show us this thing in two minutes?"
"Be patient. Movies directed by dogs usually don't have any useless scenes! Maybe this scene has some special meaning?"
"So this is why I hate literary movies. They are always nagging."
It is a pity that those fans who have high expectations for Li Yi may be disappointed this time.
There are no exaggerated scenes in the entire "Cinema Paradiso", and the pace is extremely slow.
Although "The Truman Show" is not fast-paced, it actually has many commercial elements.
But "Cinema Paradiso" doesn't have it!
This is a movie that requires patience to watch.
But where do movie fans have such patience?
The critics and a small group of viewers were fascinated by the movie, but most of the viewers yawned more than they knew how many times.
Even if this movie is Li Yi's movie, it still cannot change the essence of this movie. It is a literary movie in the true sense.
For the vast majority of viewers who are accustomed to the fast pace, it is obviously difficult for them to calm down and savor the show carefully.
"Cinema Paradiso" naturally does not have the attributes to be a hit! Not only is the pace slow, but the point is that there is rarely anything particularly exciting about the movie.
