Vol 2 Chapter 95: Fight

"Fortunately, I finally saw the latest work of Marvel director Adrian Cowell yesterday. Yes, it was the war movie that was popular at the beginning of the year. From the scene alone, it was pretty good, very angry and very There is an epic feeling that the exciting scenes of war are enough to make every man's adrenaline surge, and his control of the picture and rhythm has always been good, but if otherwise, this movie ... too bad.
I think Mr. Adrian should probably go back to school and take a history lesson, especially British history. In the era of William Wallace, the Scots had not started to wear skirts. Of course, the excuse to clearly distinguish between the English and the Scots is acceptable, but please don't forget that the Wallace family is loyal to Edward I. If you really want to consider it, Wallace should be a traitor rather than a hero. It was ironic that the real hero, the true 'brave heart', Robert Bruce, had become an indecisive character. It was only after Wallace's death inspired him to start fighting for Scottish independence.
In addition, Princess Isabel was only a few years old when Wallace was treasonous, and she had not yet married to England. How did she spend thousands of miles across the English Channel and Wallace to have affection? I think Adrian can be modified in this way. After seeing Wallace, Princess Isabel fell in love at first sight, and then the two lived in a relationship. When King Edward arrested Wallace and was sentenced to death, Princess Isabel whispered again. Tell him that she is pregnant with Wallace's child. See how touching and persevering this is, this is the plot of a Hollywood movie, isn't it?
Not to mention other details. In the first decisive battle, a soldier who fought against Wallace sometimes wore a helmet and his head was naked. The lens would change its appearance as soon as the camera turned. I have to say that Wallace was very lucky. His opponent patronized and took off his helmet. Otherwise, he might have died in front of the other.
This is a movie with no sincerity. Anyone who has an understanding of that history will find countless mistakes in three minutes. The director of Miracle chooses such a theme to make such a movie. He just wants to show himself. See, he shoots all types. As for the audience ’s feelings, the martial King of Heaven and God made the sacred king to kill the gods and seal the throne at night and seek the pride of the world. The strongest abandoning the Shaozhou royal family martial arts Qiankun will kill the night of the gods seal of the throne and seek the magic and proud of the world nine strongest days. ,tell you later. "
-"The Times" Johnny Stanley.
"There is no doubt that this is a wonderful movie, a magnificent epic, an unyielding cry of a nation, and the‘ freedom ’before Wallace ’s imprisonment is deafening.
This is a story based on real history. In the Middle Ages, Britain was not as unified as it is now. England and Scotland battled each other year after year. They sometimes unified and sometimes split. And Brave Heart tells exactly what Scotland emerged as a hero for independence.
William Wallace ’s father was a hero. He was executed by a cunning long-legged king when he confronted England. Although Wallace hated the Englishman, he did n’t want to inherit his father ’s legacy when he grew up. Defended against English soldiers and killed. When Wallace avenged his revenge, in the shouts of the villagers and friends, "We have heroes", finally understood the value of freedom, finally understood their mission and assumed it.
In battles with the English again and again, he gained the support of the Scottish aristocracy, and finally laid a solid foundation for independence. But politics was always filthy, and the Scottish nobles could not control him, so they turned around and sold it to the cunning and brutal long-legged king. The betrayed Wallace was not discouraged. He continued to fight with the English. , And the betrayer, he saw through the plot of the long-legged king again and again, and forged a deep friendship with Princess Isabel who had married away-both knew the feelings in each other's heart, but the difference in identity could only This feeling is buried in my heart.
In the end, Wallace was betrayed by the Bruce's father to the English without Robert Bruce's knowledge. The long-legged king, who had been ill, was ecstatic and wanted to execute the other party in public and continue to stabilize the authority of the royal family. However, no matter how the torturer tortured Wallace, he did not say the phrase, "forgiveness", and eventually shouted "freedom" at the moment the axe fell.
Adrian is indeed a miracle director. Whether it is the joy after victory, the defeat after betrayal, or the final shout, and the feelings of Wallace and fiancee and Princess Isabel in private have touched people's hearts. Finally, the sound of 'freedom' was particularly shocking. A story came out, unknowingly letting you immerse in it, following the story's rhythm. Although there are still many flaws, such as a relatively large number of wearing shots, such as different historical details, such as the true deeds of Wallace, but this cannot hide the great charm of this movie. "
The Los Angeles Times Philip Gunther
Not long after the trailer for "Brave Heart" was broadcast, Bosworth Pictures held a trial screening, and then there were two critically different film reviews. The former is extremely ridiculous and ironic, if it is not for professional quality, I am afraid that it has been criticized to no avail; the latter is highly praised, almost thinking that this is the best movie of the year.
The reason for this is to look at the two newspapers published. Basically, British film critics sneered at "Brave Heart" and even showed their disgust without concealing it.
"Even if it is based on real history, there is a bottom line. I would rather not participate in this preview." A British film critic said in his column.
Although some American film critics think that it has been adapted too much, most of them from the movie still think it is a very good work.
"This is just a movie. As long as the key plot has not changed, the details can naturally change for the story. Has Wallace rebelled against England hundreds of years ago? Of course Scotland has become independent? Of course there are still What's the problem? This is just a movie, not a documentary. "Faced with questions from British counterparts, American film critics immediately refuted.
"Maybe the bottom line should be popularized for some people, as mentioned in Johnny's article, when Wallace betrayed, Princess Isabel was only a few years old, but she came to the UK in the movie. It was ridiculous to have a relationship with Wallace. Has Adrian considered respecting history? "The British immediately countered.
"If you pay attention, you will find the last subtitles. The staff member wrote a sentence," This story is not true history. "I think many people have n’t noticed. This is just a movie. Why ca n’t we let those things go? Analyze from the perspective of the film? Isn't that the heroic, exciting, and beautiful plots and scenes that a great film should have? "The American wrote with a sneer.
"Please note that the advantages are the advantages, the disadvantages are the disadvantages, and the disadvantages cannot be ignored because of their advantages. Moreover, this disadvantage is likely to be greater than the advantages, which affects the overall quality of the film." There are few people, but there is no wind in the mouth.
Two contradictory sharp viewpoints collided together without giving in. In mid-December 1995, in addition to those inherent gossip scandals and various movies competing for the Christmas-New Year file in entertainment news, only the "Brave Heart" was included. The battle is most noticeable. This has caused a huge response among ordinary people, just like Adrian's Howard Manor at the time, which caused curiosity. What kind of movie will make film critics from two countries so quarrelsome?
"Of course, I'm going to watch it, of course, it can be such an interesting movie, isn't it?" A British man replied after being asked by a reporter on the street.
"It goes without saying that Director Miracle's work must be excellent." Americans did not hesitate to choose to support.
With the show, the media of other countries were also involved. The reporter from China expressed that he was looking forward to the film's release. In order to know what Adrian ’s history has been changed into, Very optimistic about Sophie Marceau's performance. Instead, the Scottish media in the same country did as before, on the pretext that no one participated in the screening. It was not clear what the film was and remained neutral. Even if some people wanted to promote the glorious history of Scottish independence, they did not participate in the screening. The information collected was incomplete, and the media in England and the United States gave up.
Even so, it did not stop the argument. In the end, the Sun could not sit still, gave up the scandal of the miracle director who had no progress, and then deliberately conducted two investigations in England and Scotland. Whether to support Miracle Director's new movie. The final result is that in England, the support is only 15.2, indifferent is 23.4, and the unsupported is 61.4; in Scotland, the support is 8.4, the indifferent is 21.5, and the support rate is .1. As before, not commenting is just to list the data.
This kind of survey is really meaningless. Even if a random inspection of individuals does not represent the opinions of the entire region, readers eat this set, and then cause some discussion.
Finally, even Adrian, who has always expressed no opinion on this matter, finally said a few words under the question of the reporter.
"This movie is just a story. It doesn't tell the whole history. Any adaptation is a re-creation. You can't completely ask it to conform to certain facts you think. I understand their mood and I agree with any one Historians can pick out dozens of mistakes--in fact, historical films have always been so, and picking mistakes is easy--but I don't think there is a problem with making such a movie, rather than This promotes a kind of history that is wrong. It is better to think about how to introduce the true history to the movies that are confused by the movie. "Adrian said so.
He certainly understood what the British were thinking, and was so smug in his heart. Although Mel Gibson had also caused some controversy, he had not made the world as stormy as he was. In the final analysis, the British probably have a feeling of betrayal. Prior to that, Adrian had always been the title of an American director who knew Britain best. From "Howard Manor" to "Emma", it was very good. In the British manor style, the British will inevitably feel a sense of pride in the Americans. In this way, this pride will be even more prosperous, and it will promote Adrian accordingly, just like touting a British character. Like Gwenis.
But now it is William Wallace, then a treason and Scottish independence as the theme of the movie, and also titled freedom, it is absolutely false to say that not angry and angry, although Scotland can not go out now, but This topic is still quite annoying, especially when it comes to promoting wrong history to other countries—don't underestimate the propaganda role of movies. Therefore, the British will have such a feeling of betrayal, even if the touting was largely wishful thinking, the attack was not spared.
Of course, Adrian didn't take it seriously. He still had several themes in his head. Wanting the British to re-toss himself is even easier than eating and drinking. So keep on fighting, the more intense the better, keep it until When the movie is released, the box office will naturally be much higher. You know, the box office of "Emma" has fallen straight under the big production clips of major movie companies competing for the Christmas-New Year file. However, because of this battle, there has been a big pick-up, so you can imagine How many people will enter the theater as soon as "Brave Heart" is released?
The Ferrari sports car stopped at the hotel door. The limited edition attracted a lot of people's attention. Adrian, who looked very handsome in a bow tie and a suit, got out of the car, tossed the keys to the parking attendant, and went straight to the familiar Baccarat Hotel, where he had attended too many parties. Previously, Now, I know the position almost with my eyes closed.
"Is there anything I can do for you, Mr. Adrian?" Which Terry Mabus, the lobby manager, met him for the first time, with a smile that was more respectful than before.
He is also watching how Adrian has become an extraordinary big man today from an ordinary wealthy child, so even if there is nothing, he will come forward and ask a question in order to make a good impression.
"Good to see you, Terry, you look good." Adrian walked to the elevator while smiling and greeting him.
"That's because it can provide the best service to the guests." Mabbs answered decently. He saw that Adrian had no other requirements, and was about to leave but was stopped again.
"Wait, Terry," Adrian seemed to have thought, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, "There may be something you need to help."
He beckoned, went to a secluded corner with Mabus, and looked around before he whispered in the other's ear.
"I see," Mabbs immediately smiled, "I'll make arrangements right away."
Adrian took the checkbook and pen out of his arms, brushed them quickly, tore them off and handed them to him: "Don't make a mistake."
"Please rest assured that nothing will go wrong," Mabbs put away the check, and there was something in the smile that only men could understand, "as before."
"Same as before." Adrian also smiled meaningfully, then strode to the elevator that had already arrived.
We went straight to the blue room on the fifth floor. The reception was just beginning. All guests were here.
"Hey, Ed, you're finally here." As soon as he entered the hall, a voice rang, and Harvey Weinstein, who was slightly fatter with a beard, walked over happily.
"Your eyes are always so sharp, Harvey." Adrian smiled and patted the other side.
"It's far worse than you, you are a big man, a big man who can make the British and Americans quarrel." Weinstein Haha said with a smile, who is good at public relations, he always speaks so.
He talked and pulled Adrian to the few people he had talked to before they were all familiar with Adrian.
Jerry Brookheimer, Don Simpson, and a Paramount manager and an independent producer, but unfortunately Michael Bay, Nicholas Cage, and Sean Connery are not here because of something, otherwise The main creators of The Island of Heroes are all here.
Don Simpson's face didn't look very good, and it was a little gray. It's no wonder that he only struggled to return from the death line within two weeks. Speaking of them, the butterfly wings are really confusing. Although Adrian reminded Simpson, the other party didn't take it seriously, and he still sucked when he wanted to suck. But Bruckheimer heard it. He had heard about Adrian pulling Revan Phoenix back from the death line, so he often reminded Simpson.
The other day Brooke Hemmer thought about this when he went to his house again, and he just happened to be in a state of convulsions due to overdose of drugs ~ EbookFREE.me ~ while the female companion was trembling and didn't know what to do. Brukerheimer, who had some first aid knowledge, immediately responded urgently, and then called the ambulance, which brought Simpson back.
"If it weren't for Jerry, I wouldn't have stood here to chat with you today." Simpson sighed when talking about it, "so I'm sorry I can't stay too long or drink."
"It doesn't matter, Don, I think everyone understands, doesn't it?" Weinstein said with a smile.
"It's true. You have to take good care of yourself, Tang, but I still have a lot of ideas. I hope you and Jerry can make such an excellent movie as" Fighting Island ". Adrian said the same.
The reason for this is because Simpson is more transparent than Bruckheimer in some aspects. Although Bruckheimer can accurately capture the audience ’s psychology and those commercial elements in the production, Simpson has one thing that he did n’t. What I learned is the grasp of the American spirit.
To put it simply, it is to pay attention to the mainstream of society while paying attention to business. For example, this time, when Brukerheimer was opposed to military participation, but Simpson chose to support Michael? shell.
