Zorro, Zorro

Alain Delon's version of "Zorro" is a fond memory of our age when we were young. It is still full of interest to revisit it today. In this "Zorro the Masked Man" (the latest blockbuster film is its sequel, I haven't watched it yet), it is joined by three star-studded big-name stars: Anthony Hopkins, Antonio Banderas and Catherine · Zeta Jones. The gentleman of Hopkins, the handsomeness of Banderas, coupled with the glamour of Zeta Jones, such a pleasing cast, who would have the mind to take care of such things as narrative structure, character relationships, etc. The problem. Indeed, what Comrade Cheng said makes sense. Watching a movie is just for fun. It's so complicated, isn't it tired? !
The wonderful elements of the film are all available: justice and evil, conspiracy and love, romance and cruelty, fast-paced, clean pictures, intense excitement, and small gimmicks that can be seen everywhere. Just listen to me in the dark and keep laughing.
It is said that Hollywood screenwriters have some good tricks. After a few seconds, there must be a small climax. In short, the audience's emotions will always follow the plot, and they will not want to fall for a moment. In fact, it is the so-called screenwriting skills. This is probably one of the secrets of entertainment or commercial films. The first thing it guarantees is to make you happy. As for the growth of the theme, it is another matter. The key is to look good, so that big investment can have a big return. The reason why Lenovo's domestic movies are often criticized is probably related to this. Just imagine, always posing like a life mentor, always treating the audience as the object of education, is it not annoying? After all, there is no shortage of directors, actors, and other film professionals of high-level photography, lighting, stage art, etc. What we lack most is the creative consciousness, whether to make the audience happy or to add to the frustration. I have discussed with Comrade Cheng that the main theme of foreign blockbuster movies is indispensable, such as "Patriot", "Saving Private Ryan", "Brothers", etc., but our main theme movie is that nobody's good-looking, why? ? I think it's just the word "consciousness". People emphasize people and human nature, and events serve the characters. On the contrary, we only talk about events (the story is still stumbling), and we have forgotten the importance of people alone. Of course, the domestically produced movies in the past decade have improved, but due to the huge disparity in quantity and quality, it is still difficult for the time being.
