tearjerker director

The filming of "I Love You" is progressing very fast, so it's too late!

Fortunately, this time, the cast of "I Love You" can be called luxurious. Apart from the lead cast, even the supporting roles are played by well-known old actors in the circle.

And this itself is a feature film, so the difficulty of shooting is really not high.

Well-known things, feature films, there are not many other complicated things, the key lies in the performance of the actors.

When the actors perform well, the filming will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

Li Yi was not in a hurry, but Luo Teng and Pu Cangdong were.

Therefore, they started the screening of "Crossing the River" in advance.

It is an attempt to preemptively accumulate popularity and reputation before "I Love You" meets the audience.

The effect is actually quite good.

The plot of "Crossing the River" itself is not bad, and Park Cangdong himself is good at shooting movies with a relatively long time span, and Luo Teng's control of the big scene is relatively good in China.

Although it is impossible for the cooperation between the two to be so tacit, the movie is generally good.

After the screening, the ratings from Dazhong Film Critic.com were pretty good. Although they weren't particularly high, they were definitely not low either. Luo Teng and Park Cangdong breathed a sigh of relief with a score of 8.2.

There is a reason why they did this. In addition to wanting to order screenings in advance to accumulate word-of-mouth, another point is to win the support of theaters.

Everyone knows why everyone doesn't like to confront Li Yi head-on?

Because the theaters have almost reached a point of blindness towards Li Yi's movies.

As long as it is Li Yi's movie, even if they don't do it, they will give them great support.

Not for anything else, just because that person's name is Li Yi!

They have never missed a shot, and they are naturally willing to support movies that make theaters money.

At the same time, on Li Yi's side, after a short period of post-production, the film "I Love You" was also announced to be completed.

This time, due to lack of time, there was no time for screening, so, simply, the secrecy was carried out to the end.

Although the outside world knows that this film is undoubtedly a romance film, but the specific kind of story is unknown, but this does not prevent them from having high expectations for this film.

"I Love You" is a very special movie. Although it tells the story of love at dusk, in fact, this movie is not necessarily for the elderly, but for young people and middle-aged people. The best audience for this movie.

But this time, the premiere of "I Love You" was scheduled to be held at Daguanlou Cinema, the oldest movie theater in Beijing.

Tickets for the premiere are almost hard to come by, and this is also the standard for Li Yi's film premiere.

On the other side, "Crossing That River" also chose to premiere on the same day, and the location of the premiere was only two kilometers away from the theater where "I Love You" premiered.

The influence of Luo Teng and Park Cangdong may be large enough, but it also depends on who they compare with?
Compared with Li Yi, it's really not enough.

No, although the premiere of "I Love You" was not too fancy, the guests could almost be said to have gathered from both sides of the Taiwan Strait, and even many movies from Bangzi's side also came to join in the show.

After all, although "I Love You" represents a film directed by Hua Guo, it is a co-production no matter what.

Of course, the specific still depends on the quality of the movie.

In the memory of "I Love You", there are two versions, one is the original version on the side of the stick, and the other is a domestic adaptation.

Although the domestic version has been adapted locally, to be honest, Li Yi prefers the original version compared to the two.

Therefore, when he was filming, he also largely restored the original "I Love You"!
Of course, some things in it will still be localized, but it is not as thorough as the domestic version of "I Love You".

The original "I Love You" story takes place in a small town, while the domestic version takes place in a city.

The reason why Li Yi likes the original version of "I Love You" is because it is not so messy and complicated. It can be said that it may not have as many "popular" things as the localized domestic version, but But very poetic!

Of course, it may also be a different focus.

The original version highlights pure love, but the adapted version may be more ambitious?I want to give people a down-to-earth feeling, but the director's level may not be that high, resulting in many plots, which seems a bit contrary.

For example, in the adapted version, the old man ran to the banquet to whip a whip and so on.

Another example, the first time I met an old lady, it turned out to be a conflict!
These all seem a little deliberate.

On the contrary, in the original version, there is not so much hostility, and many things are on point. The key is to exaggerate the love between the two old couples!
Closer to home.

This time, Li Yi's "I Love You" premiered, and even Ahn Jae-wook, the director of "Love in Seoul", came here specially.

Soon the movie officially started showing.

"Directed by Li Yi!"

As soon as these six words came out, there was a burst of applause in the theater.

The eyes of many directors present were full of envy and jealousy. It is really enviable for a director to do this!
The movie starts to appear.

At dawn, under the dim yellow light, an old man is riding a motorcycle, delivering milk!
In fact, Li Yi also thought about whether he needed to change his occupation, perhaps changing to an empty-nest old man like the original version, but in the end he decided to use the original version.

Maybe you can say that this is not in line with reality, but after Li Yi asked some people, he didn't change it.

Because, such a setting actually echoes the character of old man Jin. What kind of character is he?

Machismo!I have been stubborn all my life, and I will be strong all my life!

On the snowy slope, the old man Jin rode an old motorcycle, chug uphill!

On the slope, Mrs. Song was pulling the tattered tricycle downhill.

Suddenly, a stone was splashed from the old man's wheel and hit Mrs. Song's head with a bang.

Immediately, Mrs. Song lost control of the car and fell down, and the paper on the car fell to the ground.

Old man Jin had to stop the car and turned to see if the old lady was okay.

"Are you okay? I caused you to fall just now, right? How are you? Are you injured?" Old man Jin asked loudly.

While talking, he helped to pick up the cardboard and put it back in the car.

"It's okay!" Mrs. Song replied.

But old man Song seemed to be unable to hear, and said loudly: "I asked if you were injured!"

"I'm fine!" Mrs. Song's character was obviously the opposite of the old man's, she spoke softly, but this made the old man anxious, he couldn't hear clearly.

"Can you speak a little louder?" The old man was a little angry.

"Is he deaf?" Mrs. Song murmured in a low voice, although she had a gentle personality, but she was not without temper at all.

Then say loudly: "I'm fine, you can go!"

In the end, the first encounter between old man Jin and old lady Song was naturally not so harmonious.

Old man Jin went back and wanted to start the motorcycle, but the old motorcycle was against him and couldn't start no matter what.

At this time, Mrs. Song came over suddenly: "Then what, I want to buy some milk, okay? Is ten yuan enough?"

"I'm delivering milk, not selling milk." Old man Jin said impatiently.

"If you don't sell it, don't sell it. Why are you yelling at me?" Mrs. Song muttered in a low voice.

"I often see you in the morning!" The old man Jin was also hard-spoken and soft-hearted, as he said, he took out a carton of milk from the milk box at the back and stuffed it into her hand.

"This box is for you! Anyway, this is left over!" He said pushing the cart away.

Mrs. Song looked at the milk in her hand, then at the old man in front of her, wondering what she was thinking.

Maybe it's because this old man doesn't seem to be that annoying.

It was another snowy dawn, under the dim street lights, still on that slope!
An old lady, squatting on the half-slope in such a cold day, behind a tricycle full of cardboard and bottles, looks very bleak, but here, Li Yi feels that there is no need to deliberately exaggerate this point .

So, on the contrary, the pictures I took were more poetic, trying to downplay the desolation as much as possible.

That's not what the movie is about, is it?
Suddenly, a light came from the far wall, and the old lady knew that it must be the grumpy old man coming again. She quickly got up, turned her back to the road, and waited for the old man to leave on the bike before she turned around. Get up and continue squatting there to rest.

It's just that she didn't expect that the old man would actually shoot back.

"It's so cold, why are you out here? Those waste products can't be sold for much, don't you have a family?" Old man Jin completely ignored that he also ran out to deliver milk before dawn.

Perhaps he, who has been stubborn all his life and wanted to be strong all his life, simply ignored this point.

"No!" Mrs. Song stood up and replied.

"What?" The old man asked loudly, a little deaf.

"I said no!" Mrs. Song said a little louder.

"Hey!" The old man looked at Mrs. Song, and then at the broken car next to him.

Park the motorcycle, get off, and help the old lady pull the car downhill.

"What are you doing?" Mrs. Song hurriedly stopped her.

"It will freeze in a while, don't you want to fall? Just listen to me if you don't want to!" Old man Jin said forcefully.

So, one pulls in the front and the other pulls in the back.

Finally, the tricycle loaded with waste paper was pulled downhill.

The old man even hammered his waist: "I almost lost my waist!"

Before leaving, Mrs. Song warned: "Be careful when riding a bicycle!"

The old man Jin put his hands behind his back and said stiffly: "You'd better worry about yourself!"

However, he was handsome for only three seconds, and the ground was still too slippery, so he accidentally fell down.

Mrs. Song was about to step forward worriedly.

"It's all right, I'm all right, let's go!" the old man said quickly.

Standing up, he secretly complained: "What a shame!"

Hahaha!
I don't know why many audiences in the theater couldn't help but laugh.

This old man just makes people feel very interesting and cute!
Seeing the stubborn old man staggering towards the motorcycle on the half slope, Mrs. Song couldn't help showing a smile.

The sky is bright!

In the milk shop, through the dialogue between the old man Jin and the owner's son, everyone knew that the old man was indeed not very good at hearing and was wearing a hearing aid.

This also explains why he always speaks so loudly.

Seeing the shop owner's son packing up those empty milk boxes, for some reason, old man Jin suddenly thought of the soft-spoken old lady Song.

He even used a trick to get him to promise not to sell these empty milk cartons to people who often come to collect them.

Everyone knew that he was going to give these things to Mrs. Song.

Before dawn, the old man rode the motorcycle to deliver milk again. When Mrs. Song heard the familiar sound of the motorcycle, she knew that the stubborn old man had started working again.

She got up, opened the curtains, and sure enough, she saw old man Jin riding a motorcycle.

This day, because the waste collection car she used every day was placed at the waste collection station, but the people inside hadn't come for a long time, so Mrs. Song could only wait outside.

But the old man Jin was waiting on the slope that the old lady Song had to pass every day, but waiting and waiting, it was almost dawn, but the old lady hadn't arrived yet.

The old man Zhang, the parking lot manager, also went out from the house, but it was strange that he locked the door after he went out, even though there were still people in the house.

Sitting in the office, he saw Mrs. Song shivering outside, so he came out and asked her to wait in the office.

On the ramp, the old man Jin waited and waited, but he didn't wait for Mrs. Song. He wanted to leave. After all, it was dawn, but he didn't know why he thought of the picture of Mrs. Song falling because he didn't have his help.

Old man Jin didn't wait any longer, but rode his bicycle to the scrap yard. When he saw Mrs. Song, he smiled and wanted to give Mrs. Song the empty milk cartons he got from the shop owner's son yesterday.

In the end, he saw old man Zhang helping Mrs. Song get off the cart for scrap purchase.

He stopped in his tracks immediately, and turned around a little embarrassed.

At this time, the old lady went to stop him.

She knew that the old man's ears didn't seem very good, so she yelled louder.

Only this time, the old man said that he didn't need to shout so loudly when he was wearing a hearing aid.

I didn't wear hearing aids because the bike was too noisy.

Because old man Zhang was present, the arrogant old man Jin didn't give the milk box to the old lady, but said that he was going to deliver the milk, and then rode away.

As soon as the camera turned, old man Zhang got off work and returned home with the alarm clock and some food given by the young man at the scrap yard.

It turned out that he had a wife with dementia. The wife was alone at home, like a child, drawing on the wall with a crayon. Seeing old man Zhang coming back, she turned her head and pointed to the painting on the wall with a smile. She was dirty all over. Xixi.

Old man Zhang also laughed, but the next moment, he coaxed like a child: "Remember to use the potty next time!"

Old man Zhang patiently bathes his wife, cooks, and feeds her like a child!
"What did you do today? Tell me about it." Old man Zhang asked.

But the boss just smirked and didn't speak.

"I ate noodles made by myself for lunch today. It's easy to order takeaway, but I have nothing else to do. Chen Da from the scrap shop gave me an alarm clock."

He recounted everything about himself during the day, even though his wife might not understand at all, but he still did it.

It was late at night, and he coaxed his wife to sleep like a child. After she fell asleep, he set the alarm clock before going to bed.
