Chapter 39 Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Film Knowledge of Couples Quarrel

For some reason, Hong Kong films released this year have a lot of scenes of couples fighting.Interestingly, the way directors of different ages dealt with it also reflects the difference in life experience and understanding of creation to a certain extent.In the two youth movies released recently, no matter in "Break Up, Say I Love You" or "The Former Degree", noisy scenes between the male and female protagonists are not uncommon.More importantly, for the director Huang Zhenzhen or Mai Xiyin, the inevitable procedure for couples to argue is to break things and wreak havoc on the environment.

1. The love storm equation Looking at "The Former Degree", the creator's image of broken objects actually has an obvious emotional complex.In the clips recalling the relationship between Chen Junping (William Chan) and Zhou Yi (Gillian Chung), every quarrel is almost inseparable from the end of falling objects, and even from breaking to cleaning up, it seems to be a sequence of turmoil.What's more interesting is that the creators believe in this formula.Therefore, even in the new residence of Junping and A Shi (played by Shi Ya), on the surface, there seems to be no details of falling objects as before, but the water cup symbolized by the two breaking the situation fell down, and the director deliberately used plastic cups instead of glass cups As a hint, it tries to outline the irony behind it—everyone lives in the shadow of the past, and the eternity of objects cannot reverse the fragility of feelings. This is one of the images that Mai Xiyin is trying to present.Looking at "Break Up, Say I Love You", there is actually not much difference. In the opening scene of Sunny (played by Deng Jianhong) and Fanny (played by Xian Seli), the latter also uses the latter to destroy the former's store as a means of expression, basically the same principle.To put it bluntly, in the minds of the creators of the above two works, the key to breaking up is to make a scene (and there is no distinction between men and women. Joe, played by Jaycee Jaycee, made a move on Lies, played by Ye Shanhao, at the press conference. good instructions).Without the above situations, it seems that the movie cannot explain the plot of the breakup.

2. Zhou Yi and her current boyfriend, A Shu, were arguing at the airport in "The Former Degree". I think of filmmakers from the previous generation, such as Chen Qingjia and Qin Xiaozhen in "Human Comedy", or Anxi in "Full Moon Hennessy". In fact, the same There are scenes dealing with couples fighting. "Human Comedy" itself is a sketch that borrows mock irony to construct comedy elements.Zhong Tianai (Fiona Sit) and Zhuge Toujiu (Wang Zulan) are arguing about the business of throwing things at home, which is originally a quarrel with the current youth movie program.Of course, while joking, the creator also added connotations to the same clip.Coupled with the wrong touch arrangement (Du Wenze, Xue Kaiqi and Zhuge's heads are constantly hurting others in the process of pushing and bumping), although there is a visually funny function, the metaphor behind the mistake of hitting the auxiliary car is exactly the creator's heart song Confession.Tianai pushed down the bookshelf and crushed Situ Chunyun (played by Du Wenze), which in turn further strengthened the brotherhood between Toujiao and Chunyun.

3. Can't get rid of the shadow of "former degree" As for Anxi's "Full Moon Hennessy", it obviously went to another realm.Yes, also dealing with the breakup scene of the young couple, Ai Lian (played by Tang Wei) and A Xu (played by An Zhijie) only have negligible quarrels (Tang Wei: I am really tired), the next scene is already after Ai Lian goes away , the scene where A Xu guards the vacant room full of furniture alone.Nothing seems to have been said, but everyone knows that everything has already been said. I would like to use this to point out that it more or less reflects the differences in the understanding of drama concepts by creators of different ages.In fact, it was just a pretense that I selected couples quarreling scenes into the title, and I wanted to bring out the contrast between blank space and close coverage. "Qiandu" constantly uses dialogues and images to explain back and forth. In fact, it is a dense filling strategy, aiming to make the audience clearly understand the origin of the shadow of "Qiandu". After the opening prelude of "Full Moon Hennessy", the ups and downs of Alai (Jacky Cheung) and Ailian's relationship are almost all explained in the dark - in other words, the two people's emotional gains are basically based on different The method of meeting but not talking has been transformed and improved, and everything in the text is credible and reasonable. There is no doubt that it is indeed the work of a master.Ai Lian's tooth decay, reading a magazine and finding that A Lai is not lying, or A Lai watching Ai Lian silently, and constantly reasoning and breaking out, in fact, they all accumulate feelings bit by bit.

4. Ailian and Alai in "Full Moon Hennessy" If quarreling is an inevitable part of a couple's life, Anxi probably tells everyone clearly that the world of drama is never content to stay at the level of objectively presenting the real world (not to mention formulaic expressions), and what is more important is the vision of the world The reason is that even in the face of the subtle category of depicting the emotions of men and women, the same is true. Yes, ginger really does get spicier with age.
