tearjerker director

Li Yi is more patient with child actors.

Because, a state like Harris, it can be said, is too normal.

It's not that anyone is really good at acting, even if he can act again, but after all, the age is there.

"Director, can you give me 10 minutes?" Harris Kane said suddenly.

Li Yi, however, guessed what he was going to do, and couldn't help frowning slightly. He is not the kind of person who doesn't care about anything just to make a movie.

Although he chose Harris Kane because he had a similar experience, but to be honest, Li Yi is also quite contradictory. Harris Kane obviously wants to be in the play. It will undoubtedly make the shooting smoother, but no one can guarantee the consequences of Harris Kane's entry into the play.

"Hey, Harris, this is just filming, understand?" Li Yi couldn't help reminding.

"I know, yes, this is just filming!" Harris looked at Li Yi but said firmly.

"You need to ask your mother for permission, otherwise, I don't support you doing this!" Li Yi still said.

Harris Kane hesitated and said, "OK!"

I don't know how Harris Kane got Miria to agree to let him into the play, but she agreed, and Li Yi naturally wouldn't stop it.

Sure enough, after Harris Kane entered the play, the shooting became extremely smooth.

But there are also some problems, that is, Harris Kane has become withdrawn, out of gregarious, and has become extremely sensitive.

Aside from his adoptive mother Miria, he barely speaks to anyone, except when filming.

After Harris Kane "entered the show", the filming progress of the film became extremely fast.

On Li Yi's side, he actually likes Lao Mei's work style. Many people think that the crew in Hollywood doesn't work overtime or anything, but in fact, it's all rumors.

On the bright side of Hollywood, everyone can choose to refuse to work overtime and work according to normal working hours. This is the power that everyone really has.

As a matter of fact, in a place like the crew, if you really ask to work overtime, no one will refuse unless you are really careless.

But the amazing thing is that the production crew in Hollywood seldom work overtime, mainly due to cost considerations.

Because overtime is no problem, but the overtime pay is much higher than that in China.

Therefore, most of the time in Hollywood, the director will not choose to let the crew work overtime unless it is necessary for shooting.

Li Yi was not in a hurry this time, so naturally he would not choose to work overtime or anything, and ended the shooting on time almost every day.

Even sometimes the shooting speed is fast, and the shooting plan is completed ahead of schedule, and Li Yi will not continue shooting for the rest of the time.

Maybe if it was in China, everyone would be eager to finish the filming sooner, but here, it's really not the case.

For this reason, although the shooting progress has been accelerated a lot, in fact, the time spent has not been reduced too much.

The shooting plan of the movie is to complete all the shooting in three months, which is actually very loose.

The filming of "The Sixth Sense" went smoothly, and there is actually a lot of attention to this movie in China.

Although "The Sixth Sense" is destined not to be released in the mainland, it will be released at the same time in Hong Kong Island and Taiwan. For this reason, many fans of Li Yi even prepared to go to Hong Kong Island or Taiwan to watch "The Sixth Sense". Sense" the film's plan.

On the North American side, Dean Pictures' promotion of "The Sixth Sense" has already begun.

The schedule of "The Sixth Sense" was already booked when the project was established. Li Yi's movie is so stable.

Although it is said that Li Yi's reputation in North America is not as good as that in China, in fact, he still has some influence. Although he can't compare with those big local directors who have been in Hollywood for many years, he is definitely the best among Chinese directors .

After all, Li Yi also had many masterpieces in Hollywood before, and had a good box office performance and reputation in North America.

However, after all, Li Yi hasn't come to Hollywood to make a movie for many years, so Dean Films still held a viewing party before the movie was officially released.

This is related to the issue of the scale of the film's subsequent release.

Of course, it actually means to order screenings in advance.

However, this time the screening of "The Sixth Sense" is private and invited, including a group of film critics from Hollywood, a group of media people, and a group of theater representatives.

And some of Li Yi's old domestic friends also ran over to support Li Yi.

"So, are you planning to stay here?" Zhao Guangming, who came from China, asked.

"What are you doing here? It's fine to come here once in a while to make a movie that can't be made in China. It's good here, after all, it's someone else's place!" Li Yi said flatly.

He was telling the truth. Regardless of the fact that James Dean of Dean Films favored him, other Hollywood giants also sent people to contact him and seek cooperation.

But all the while he was just an outsider here.

The first special screening was held in a theater under the Dean Cinemas controlled by Dean Films.

"Although Li is the director of Huaguo, I have always paid attention to his films. I have to say that he can always surprise people!" said Taylor, a well-known Hollywood film critic.

"Yeah, today's Hollywood is too commercialized, and almost all of them are following the old routine, without any innovation. They talk about the shortage of scripts every day, but in fact they are not afraid of risks." Chris, another film critic, nodded in agreement.

The influence of the Hollywood film critic group, in fact, with the rise of the Internet and self-media, the influence of these veteran professional film critics has been declining.

Of course, even so, no one is willing to offend this group casually.

In the early years, Hollywood professional film critics could even influence the box office and awards of a film, but now it has plummeted.

Maybe they can still influence a little bit in terms of awards, but in terms of box office, it is very embarrassing.

This also caused their income to drop significantly.

But there is one thing, the views of professional film critics in Hollywood and those from the media are the same.

That is, Hollywood has been eating its laurels, fewer and fewer people dare to innovate, fewer and fewer original movies, and more and more sequel movies.

The same media also advocated that Hollywood should try to innovate bravely, but Hollywood magnates scoffed at this. It’s not your money that is spent, you don’t feel back pain when you stand and talk, right?
For this reason, whether it is the media or film critics, they have been saying that Hollywood needs spoilers.

Therefore, the arrival of Li Yi's new film at this time naturally made these film critics and media people have some expectations.

After all, it is not so fresh to report those Hollywood "acquaintances" every day. People like Li Yi are very suitable. Although Li Yi is not a Hollywood director, the same Li Yi is not an unknown person. On the contrary, people in Chinese The film industry can be said to be second to none.

And indeed, Li Yi's previous films released in Hollywood and in North America are indeed very different from the current mainstream films in Hollywood.

For example, "The Sixth Sense" this time is actually a relatively rare subject matter for the North American film industry of this era.

Movies with supernatural themes are not uncommon in Hollywood, but few big directors are willing to direct such movies, because the upper limit of movies with supernatural themes is limited!
Of course, this refers to traditional supernatural films.

Soon everyone in the cinema stopped talking, because the movie officially started showing.

In the first scene, Li Yi does as the Romans do, and he also quotes the scenes from the original movie, that is, an old light bulb, and the light gradually brightens, which is actually for the whole film, including the next first scene. The scene sets the tone!

As the plot progresses, through the dialogue between the psychiatrist and his wife Anna, the achievements of the child psychiatrist Mike are introduced.

He is a child psychologist who has been engaged in child psychotherapy for many years and has received numerous praises.

Even the city government awarded him a certificate of honor.

The couple happily celebrated together. When they arrived in the bedroom, when they were about to make out, suddenly his wife Anna's face changed.

The glass windows in their bedroom were smashed.

Suddenly a figure floated past, and Anna screamed.

Immediately, the whole atmosphere changed, from the previous warmth to a little scary.

Is someone hacking?still?
The camera quickly revealed the answer. A young man appeared in the bathroom of his home. He gave people a strange feeling. He took off his clothes and left only his shorts, but he didn't look like a The vicious intruder looked like a helpless child.

Mike told his wife to be quiet and to stay still, and then said to the man: "You broke into a private house!"

"You don't know anything!" The uninvited guest said with grievance.

Then he came out.

"Why are people afraid when they are alone?" The young man covered his mouth and asked with tears in his eyes.

"I know!" he asked himself again.

At this time, Anna also felt that something was wrong with him and asked subconsciously, "What are you doing?"

But the young man seemed to be stimulated and couldn't control his emotions. He said loudly: "He promised me, I want him to do it!"

This also let Mike's wife Anna in the movie understand that the other party knew Mike, and also let the audience in the theater know that this person knew Mike.

But Mike didn't know him anymore, he asked, "Do I know you?"

"Doctor, don't you recognize me? You don't remember your patient? Downtown clinic, single-parent family, probably suffering from an emotional disorder."

His words made Mike fall into thinking.

"I was so scared at the time, you said I couldn't face my parents' divorce, you were wrong, you were wrong!"

"Look at me now, I don't want to be scared anymore!"

"Let me think about it!" Mike was still thinking, still remembering who he was, he had too many patients.

But the boy began to beat on the door frame angrily: "I have been waiting for you for ten years, and I won't wait any longer!"

"Ben Ficken?." Mike began to try to say the names
"Some people call me a freak, but I am indeed a freak, look at me," the boy cried out of control and frantically.

Finally Mike remembered who he was: "Vincent? Of course I remember you, quiet, smart, sympathetic, very sympathetic!"

"You forgot that I was also cursed, you gave up on me!" Vincent looked at him with tears in his eyes.

"You gave up on me!" He suddenly said angrily.

"Vincent, I'm sorry I didn't help you, let me try again, if you give me another chance!"

But Vincent responded by turning around, picking up the gun and pulling the trigger.

Mike was shot, and Vincent took the gun to his own head!
As the gunshot rang out again, the camera panned to Mike, who was lying on the bed clutching the shot.

Anna came up crying
The big screen went black!
"Next fall!"

Subtitles appear!

The street full of yellow leaves, the fresh air after the heavy rain, and the strong atmosphere of England can be felt through the screen. The psychiatrist Mike is sitting on a horizontal chair with a medical record in his hand. The medical records of Vincent, a former patient who he then committed suicide!
Suddenly he raised his head and looked at the opposite door. The door was opened, and the little boy Cole came out. He looked a little vigilant and cautious.

Mike opened another medical record, and the name and age of the little boy Cole were written on it, Cole Hill, 9 years old!
Divorced parents, extreme anxiety, withdrawn personality, may suffer from emotional disorders!

These keywords are all circled!
Let the audience understand at once that this is his patient!
And it was a patient whose symptoms were very similar to that of Vincent!

The little boy closed and locked the door, took out a pair of glasses from his bag and put them on.

Mike put the information in the bag, but when he looked up again, Cole had already run out of his sight.

He quickly got up and followed.

Cole hurried to the outside of the church, opened the door, and got in.

Inside the church, Cole was squatting under a chair and muttering to a toy soldier.

Mike came over and showed a kind smile: "Cole, don't be afraid, I'm Dr. Mike!"

"We were supposed to meet today, but I didn't make it! Sorry!"

Cole said nothing.

Mike asked him again: "I noticed that your glasses have no lenses!"

"It's my dad's! It's uncomfortable with the lenses!" Cole finally said.

"What did you say to the toy soldier just now?" Mike was curious.

Cole said a string of Latin, and then told Mike: "It's Latin!"

Mike looked at Cole's arm, which was scratched.

"Do they all speak Latin?" Mike asked.

"No! Only one! Are you a good doctor?" Cole asked.

"Yes!" Mike said and continued: "It used to be! I got a certificate, and it was awarded to me by the mayor!"

Cole put away the toy figure, turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly he turned to look at Mike: "I'll see you again, right?"

"if you do not mind!"

Cole turned and left, but when passing by the place where the statues were placed, he stole a statue!
In this paragraph, there are things that the audience can understand, but there are also things that they cannot understand.

It is understandable that Mike gave up on Vincent earlier, which made him feel deeply guilty, so he will not give up this time when he encounters a patient like Cole who is similar to Mike.

But what is incomprehensible is Cole's behavior, which is obviously a bit weird.

When Mike came home, there was only leftovers on the dinner table, and his wife had fallen asleep.

She had clearly cried and had tissues in her hand.

Mike turned around and took out the key to open the door to the basement, went to the basement, and took out a Latin dictionary.

He found the Latin text that Cole said before and translated it.

"God, I cry out to you from the abyss!"

This extremely weird statement made Mike a little puzzled. In fact, the audience in the movie theater also looked confused!
A little boy, why would he say such a thing?
It sounds a little scary!
