Chapter 494: Courage
After experiencing the storm, accompanied by Truman's innocent smile, the picture returned to a soothing atmosphere, and the tension and heartbreaking before were gone. With the melodious background music, Truman slowly sailed towards the distance in a small boat.
Looking from the camera, there are unreachable sea level and blue sky and white clouds in the distance, and there is no head at all. It should be a long time to find the exit of this world. The background music is also a very soothing and melodious type, which also gives the audience a hint that this situation will not change at the moment. However, with the sound of "Tun", the front pole of the bow suddenly inserted into the "sky" and the ship stopped.
The low voices of "Ha" in the screening hall were all surprised one after another, and they were obviously shocked by the imaginative scene of the front pole of the bow of the ship inserted into the "sky" again.
"This picture, this is Duane..."
An audience in the film critic area inadvertently muttered to themselves, which represents the views of some industry insiders on director Duane.
There are many Chinese directors, and many excellent ones, but there is a common phenomenon among excellent Chinese directors that is that they are basically good at telling stories, but they have shortcomings in picture expression and imagination. It can be said that they are full of introspection, while Duane is different. This young director is not only good at telling stories, but also good at building excellent and imaginative lenses. Unlike some directors who use them to add exciting scenes in order to pursue picture effects, Duane's amazing and impressive lenses are derived from the story itself and serve the story, truly achieving the unity of the inside and outside, achieving the effect of 1+1 greater than 2.
Take this scene in front of you as an example.
The front pole of the bow is inserted into the "sky", and this scene is very visually impactful in the picture. From the point of view of storyline, because the world of Taoyuan Island is a huge studio, the studio will definitely have a boundary, and the sky is the boundary, so from the point of storyline, this scene is reasonable and natural. And since it reaches the boundary, you can probably find the exit next and leave Taoyuan Island, which can successfully lead to the final plot below. It can be said that from the point of storyline, this scene is also necessary and indispensable.
There are both stories and pictures, which is one of the main reasons why many people think that this young man has become popular in recent years when studying Duane.
Putting aside Duane's technique, his eyes returned to the movie.
When the ship was blocked by the margins of the world, Truman walked along the deck to the bow of the ship and touched the wall painted as blue sky and white clouds.
Truman used all his strength to hit the wall frantically, but he could not shake it at all, nor could he make a gap. In despair, he found that the sea surface near the border could actually stand.
He got off the boat and came to the sea on this edge and walked forward along the wall. After walking for a long time, he found an upward staircase. He walked up the staircase and arrived at the top and found a door on the left wall, which was closed with the words "exit" written on it.
The exit of Taoyuan Island World has finally appeared.
"Bang"
Truman pushed open the door, and the back of the door was covered in darkness and could not see anything.
"Trumen."
A sound came from behind, causing Truman to turn around suddenly, search quickly, and then found that the sound came from the sky.
"You can talk, I can hear."
The camera shifted and pointed at the sky. I saw dense clouds on the blue sky. The sun slowly poked out from a slowly moving cloud barrier. Lu Wa's voice came from above, distant and ethereal.
At this moment, Luva was completely a god.
"Who are you?"
“I am the creator…”
Truman and Lu Wa talked across the air and finally learned the truth of the world from Lu Wa. However, he had already had his own guesses about it, so he was not too excited. After confirming the truth, he turned around and was about to enter the dark world outside the door, but was stopped by Lu Wa.
"listen to me!"
"The outside world is as false as what I have given you..."
"There are lies and the same fraud. But in my world, you don't have to be afraid of anything..."
Luva's voice was soft and gentle.
"I know yourself better than you."
"You're scared, so you can't leave."
"It doesn't matter, Truman, I understand. I have seen your life. When you were born, I looked at you, when you learned to walk, I looked at you, when you entered school, I looked at you, and when you lost your first tooth, I remember it very clearly..."
When Lu Wa said this, he couldn't help but chuckled, with a kind expression and a pampering and nostalgic look, and he looked like a kind father.
"You can't leave, Truman, you belong here."
"Follow me."
Seeing Truman still facing away from him and not turning around, Lu Wa was a little anxious and increased his voice, "Say something! You are on TV, and the whole world is watching you!"
His tone was very proud, no different from any father who showed off his son's words to others, "My son scored 100 points."
With Lu Wa's words, the picture changed, and moved from Taoyuan Island to the "real world": in the tavern, whether it was the bartender, waiter or customer, they all stared at the TV nervously; in the bathroom, the old man sitting in the bathtub looked at the TV in front of him without blinking; in the living room, a pair of twin old sisters stared at the TV worriedly, and they were holding Truman's pillow in their arms...
Emotions seemed to be contagious, and the audience in the screening hall were the same now: they all stared at the big screen with wide eyes, waiting for Truman's final choice.
They are no longer sure that Truman will go out and leave Taoyuan Island, because they know that what Lu Wa said is right in the outside world, there are lies, falsehood, and not a perfect world. In comparison, Taoyuan Island is more suitable for life. At least here, it will be the center of everyone. With a "father" like Lu Wa, he really doesn't have to be afraid of anything. He can even always be the focus of the world!
You know, just for this last point, how many people in this world are willing to give everything for it? And Truman can do it just by turning around.
Will you leave? Or will you stay?
After putting himself in the role of Truman, many viewers on the scene discovered this problem that seemed natural before and became uncertain.
Perhaps it was because of the real life that had been erased, perhaps because they were too eager for stability in this rapidly changing era, or perhaps because they wanted to become the center of the world, many viewers found that if they were put into the role of Truman, they didn't know how to choose.
I don't know how to choose, maybe it's already a choice...
From the beginning of the movie, the discussion was impossible to stop, especially in the first half. As the exciting plots continued to emerge in the second half, the sounds of the audience gradually became smaller. Now, there was no sound in the entire screening room, and it was really silent, and everyone was waiting for the final answer.
The camera returns to Truman.
Under the gaze of everyone, Truman turned around and faced the camera. After looking at it for a while, a word suddenly popped out of his mouth.
"If I never see you again..."
Truman laughed, "I wish you good morning, noon and evening in advance."
He smiled brightly and leaned back a little, as if he thought his joke was very funny.
It's exactly the same as the beginning of the video. The only difference is that Truman is not wearing a suit now, and there is a scar on his face.
The camera turned to Lu Wa, and the smile on his face gradually faded away, his face full of incredible feelings, as if he didn't expect Truman to really dare to leave like this.
But Truman really left.
The camera turned to Truman again, and he bent down, bowed like the stage actors who had left the curtain call, then turned around and looked at the dark world behind the door. After only a second paused, he took a resolute step and stepped in.
He walked firmly, his body hidden in the darkness behind the door.
"yeah!"
The camera moved to every corner of the "real world", and the audience in the "real world" were very excited and cheering loudly at the moment. Everyone was quiet in the screening room, but many people couldn't help but feel their noses sore and their eyes were rosy.
Maybe it's for their weakness, maybe it's for this courageous excitement, maybe it's just purely infected by the emotions of the actors on the screen, maybe they themselves don't know why...
The only thing we know is that when the movie ended, Duane took the crew members to the stage to give the final curtain call, the audience began to applaud.
There were scattered applause, one by one, and there was no connection. After a long time, it finally became a whole, which was an explanation.
The premiere ended successfully.
Chapter completed!
