Chapter 1062 The Distressing Heroine
Those present are all insiders, and it can be said that they are all experts who have read countless films. For a short film, they first look at the creativity, and then the impression.

Whether the idea is new or not, it can actually be said to be the first point of view of the short film.

As for Li Yi's "Maggie's Gift", so far, it can be said that it is difficult to find anything novel.

Of course, after all, the shadow of the tree, not to mention Li Yi's status in the film industry, but the works he has made, and those short films are enough to make these people feel suspicious even if they have doubts in their hearts. Still maintained his patience and did not speak.

After all, no one knows if they will be slapped in the face later, right?

The short film continues.

Della went out, and she stopped in front of a signboard, which read: "Mrs. Saffronie——a variety of hair products."

Della ran up a flight of stairs, panting to gather herself.

What's interesting is that Mrs. Saffronie has a fat body, her complexion is too white, and she has a cold appearance, which doesn't quite match the name "Safronie".

Why is it different from the name Saffronie?
Larison is a well-known Hollywood film critic. Domestic film critics and filmmakers may not be particularly familiar with the meaning of this name, but he is very familiar with it.

Because Saffronie is a character in the Italian poet Tasso's epic poem "Jerusalem Liberated" with the theme of the First Crusade. In order to save the Christians in Jerusalem, she admitted what she did not commit. The crime has become a typical example of self-sacrifice to save others.

This made Larison's eyes light up. This irony is really in place.

Suddenly he thought of Maggie's gift again, the meaning of this Maggie.

This made him extremely surprised, because he had to know that Li Yi was from Huaguo, but this short film, although it still looks mediocre until now, but from these small details, it made him want to find out. impulse.

"Do you want to buy my hair?" Della asked, looking at the other party with some hesitation.

"I'll buy hair," said Madame, "take off your hat and let me see what it looks like."

Della took off her hat and hair tie, and her long brown hair cascaded down like a waterfall.

"This hair is even prettier than in a shampoo ad!" Finally someone couldn't help complaining.

is not that right?

So far, this short film has not been too brilliant, but Della's long brown hair has been featured in close-ups again and again.

Beautiful is beautiful, but the problem is, this is not a commercial, okay?

"Couldn't it be that Director Li took on private work?" Someone couldn't help asking again.

"200 yuan!" Madam said, grabbing her hair in an expert way.

There was a strange gleam in her eyes, which seemed to be jealous, mocking, and admiring.

There are so many different things.

In fact, just from this point, from the acting skills of the actors, Li Yi's short film will beat other short films.

Don't underestimate the eyes of this lady. First of all, she is very jealous of Della's incomparably beautiful long hair. She must be very careful at ordinary times. Of course, it may be that she is jealous of Della's beauty and figure.

However, at the same time, there was some sarcasm, no matter how beautiful the woman was, no matter how beautiful her hair was, wouldn't she still have to sell it and cut it off?

And for professional reasons, she admired Della's hair.

These need to be shown through the eyes. The actress Li Yi is looking for may not look famous, but in fact, she is an old Hollywood actor. According to domestic terms, she is an old drama.

That action, that look, is all drama!
Della sat on the chair like a haggard wood, and that Mrs. Saffronie picked up the scissors and raised the knife.

Della closed her eyes resignedly.

The camera gave her a perspective, first looking at the wall mirror in front of her, then the camera closed like an eye, and when it opened again.

Originally beautiful, her husband liked the baby's long hair so much, it just disappeared.

The woman with long hair now only has short hair.

Although it still looks very beautiful, it still feels like something is missing.

The contrast in this scene is amazing.

Although it is just a shot, a shot with the eyes closed and opened, but the two images that are completely different from the front and the back are vividly displayed on the screen.

After receiving the 200 yuan, Della put on the veil again to cover her head.

The next moment, the camera changed, and Della came to a shop and searched.

She searched many stores, and finally she caught a watch chain. It was a platinum watch chain with a simple and simple style, and it was only used to show its value, not to show off with any decoration.

Della had a smile on her face that had never been seen since the family decided to sell her long hair to prepare a special Christmas gift for her husband.

At that moment she looked extremely charming.

It was a smile that wished for a treasure to be fulfilled.

As if all good things were supposed to be like this, as if this watch chain had always been there waiting for her.

She bought it.

Although a bit expensive!
It cost her a full $220!

Della hurried home with the wrapped platinum watch chain.

It's just that her steps seem a little lighter.

Although I lost my hair, I finally bought the gift I wanted.

With that chain, the husband can look at the clock on any occasion without any worries.Although the watch was expensive, he sometimes only glanced at it furtively because it had only an old leather strap in place of its chain.

When Della came home, some of her intoxication was replaced by prudence and reason.

Especially when she saw herself in the little mirror, she sighed, took out her curling irons, and set about remedying the disaster of love combined with generosity.

After a long time, her head was covered with close-fitting little curls, and she became like a primary school student who skipped class. She carefully and harshly looked at the mirror again and again.

She looked at herself in the mirror and said to herself, "I wonder if Jim doesn't kill me just by looking at it!"

At this time, the people who watched this short film became inexplicably quiet, because although the story is indeed very plain and simple, it has to be said that this kind of technique is displayed through Della's psychological changes. Interesting.

"He'd say I'm like a singing girl in the Coney Isle. What can I do?—oh! I don't have that much money. What can I do?"

A kind of apprehension and entanglement, as well as the appearance of talking to herself, people can't help but feel sorry for the heroine.

The family is poor and everything is sad, but even so, she still loves her husband, otherwise, she would not do such a thing.

I don't know why, but this short film always feels a little different.

It seems that the original simple story has become more complicated.
