Wang Meng sometimes thinks?

It seems like God's will. The plot of A Niu that I am filming is somewhat similar to the current reality?

There were ups and downs outside, and there were voices praising the Matrix everywhere, but the crew was very peaceful and quiet.

Just like the script of Forrest Gump, Forrest Gump has experienced a lot, but his heart has not changed, and he is still so innocent and untainted.

There are many major events in the play, but Forrest Gump's eyes are the same. They are all looking at them with ignorance. They said what he thought later.

I guess the director used such a shot to explain a fact!

The fact is: the world is too complicated, and the whole film is also very complicated. But Forrest Gump's heart is very simple, and this simplicity is the theme of this film.

Wang Meng's opinion is that it is difficult and easy to adapt Forrest Gump.

What is difficult is not the coincidence of some major events?

But how to use the lens to portray Forrest Gump’s ideas.

Because Forrest Gump is an intellectually retarded person with an IQ of only 75, it is impossible to hear him say anything big, otherwise the whole movie will collapse.

Therefore, you can only compare the lens with Forrest Gump.

The comparison is obvious, there are constant major events and the forrest Gump remains unchanged. This is the best explanation.

Forrest Gump has three characters that cannot be missing in his life, and it can also be said that this movie has three characters that cannot be missing.

They are mother, Jenny, and Captain Dan.

According to Wang Meng's understanding, mother is God, Jenny is faith, and Captain Dan is the lost lamb.

As long as you grasp these three roles, you will be 80% sure to succeed.

Let’s talk about the role of mother first. She raised Forrest Gump and established Forrest Gump’s life values. For Forrest Gump, she can give up everything, including dignity. Moreover, she wisely explains the answers to Forrest Gump and lets a person with an IQ of 75 to understand.

Just like the Buddhist saying that cutting flesh and feeding eagles is too great. It is so great that Europeans and Americans can only use the title of God.

Including the words she said to Forrest Gump when she was about to die, she was a role of God.

Jenny is Forrest Gump's belief, and of course there is irony.

When Forrest Gump was helpless, Jenny stood up, no less than a person who was completely disappointed, and suddenly saw the golden sunshine.

In the child-stage growth environment, God’s Mother has achieved the most perfection, at least for Forrest Gump.

But who is faith? Faith is Jenny who appears when Forrest Gump is lost. This is his faith.

These two women have made Forrest Gump remain unchanged in their original intentions, and these two women have established Forrest Gump's life.

One is God and the other is faith.

As for the irony, it can be seen that the defilement of mother is ironic, and Jenny's depravity is also ironic.

The difference is that the mother is defiled for the sake of the child, so she is God.

And Jenny's depravity is not a scene that satirizes some people's loss of faith. This scene is reflected in rights, money, fame and fortune, etc.

Why is Forrest Gump so great?

This is the greatest manifestation, that faith has fallen, but Forrest Gump is still so innocent.

The general explanation is: When I was a child, Jenny brought faith to Forrest Gump, and Forrest Gump remembered this faith. When he grew up, Jenny no longer believed in him, but Forrest Gump kept believing. As for what happened later? Forrest Gump did not win back Jenny's faith until Jenny died...

This should be a punishment for abandoning faith.

Finally, there is Captain Dan. This guy looks awesome, but in fact he has no faith.

It can be reflected in many places, including the depravity after losing both legs, the unwillingness on the fishing boat, etc., which are all manifestations of lack of faith.

Why call him the lost lamb?

Because Forrest Gump influenced him through his constant change, he is said to be the Lamb.

On the boat he said to Forrest Gump: Thank you for saving my life, when you find your faith.

Just as Forrest Gump said: Captain Dan compromised with God.

That's why? Americans call Forrest Gump the American Dream.

In fact, it is to encourage them not to get lost, not to fall, and not to have no faith.

Ordinary can be great. If you lose it, you are sad. If you have no choice, please choose to be calm.

Wang Meng felt that this was the main theme of Forrest Gump, and as long as you grasp the key points, you can still succeed.

Among them, in the Vietnam War, Wang Meng replaced it with a reflection after the Vietnam War, and Wang Meng replaced it with a reflection that did not pay enough attention to the environment and caused the fire.

Including Forrest Gump football was replaced by running and interviewing China without faith, and Chinese people with faith, etc.

As for the major events explained by lenses, there are also many in this life, as long as you can get it in line. This is second.

After running for three years or three years, Jenny just changed to Jingjing, and the effect was still the same as Lin Aiguo and still had the great dedication of her mother.

Of course, the most important thing is to tell stories on the bench, and there will still be that feather that floats over.

As long as these remain unchanged, the outline will be as stable as a rock.

This is the most important aspect and it is also the key to Wang Meng being confident in adapting this movie.

The second key point...

It is the director's ability. As Wang Meng said before, the difference between art films and commercial films.

Control and use of the camera is very important.

The reason why Wang Meng chose to shoot in seclusion here is to avoid disturbance and calm down and think about it? How can the movie be more exciting?

Combining the above three important characters, it is: Forrest Gump tells an ordinary story, but uses cameras to show extraordinary things.

This is a test, testing the director's skills.

Including the overall layout, just like the beginning of the story, Forrest Gump sat on a chair and told a story to others, and ended up sitting on a stone to send the child to school. They were all sitting, and they were all a mythical feather.

This is the beauty of the overall layout, which can be more beautiful, artistic and vivid...

The final point...

Two-word acting!

This is all due to Huang Bo. Tom Hanks played a big role in the original Forrest Gump. That vivid performance is the basis for the character Forrest Gump to survive.

Tom Hanks belongs to the mythology. If James Cameron is the director's mythology, then Tom Hanks is the actor's mythology.

Five Oscar nominations for Best Actor, two awards, eight Golden Globes nominations for Best Actor, four awards. As for the Actors Union Awards, Emmy Awards, Berlin Silver Bear Awards, etc., there are countless.

If an actor who is still alive, how can he find someone better than him?

So, actors are very important.

Wang Meng carefully chose again and again, and chose Huang Bo. The biggest reason was that he had seen fried rice in his previous life, and Huang Bo also played a fool-like character.

If anyone who has watched it will feel incongruity no matter who will act, it will be because Tom's image has become a god.

Fortunately, no one knows about this place, so Huang Bo was found. Wang Meng hopes that Huang Bo can shape his divine character like Tom.

Even decades later, when talking about the wonderful roles played by Huang Bo, they would say A Niu.

...

The above three points?

Simply put, it is to grasp all the above three points and create a screen classic.
