"Don't Say Anything" 9.0

Obviously, "The Camera Don't Stop! "The three-stage structure is borrowed from "Sir, Don't Say Anything", or its original drama "The Confused Troupe".

"Don't stop the camera! "The three paragraphs are, a low-cost zombie farce with a lot of shoddy production, but one shot to the end; a loose rhythm to explain the relationship between characters and the daily routine of the preparatory work; a deconstruction or puzzle-solving intertextual presentation of the first part. .

The first paragraph of "Don't Say Anything" was the last rehearsal before the drama started. Although the situation continued, the first scene was presented completely, during which the establishment of the relationship between the characters was subtly included; Afterwards, the conflict between the actors broke out. On the one hand, they were extremely unprofessional in their multi-angle love and jealousy. Wu also rolled his eyes and gave up the treatment, and threw the script away.

The second part of "Photo" is mediocre and boring. Apart from one or three paragraphs of exquisite intertext, these bland and daily narratives somewhat reveal the director's true skills.

The three paragraphs of "Big" are upgraded along the level of chaos. The play within the play switches seamlessly between the front and back of the stage. Drama, pantomime, and farce are staged at the same time. Probably can only blame the second paragraph for being so perfect that the third paragraph can only be rushed.

Even if you only watch the drama itself, it is already quite interesting, excerpting a few homophonic stalks translated by Douyou——

- Who are you? - What are you doing?

- Doing the taps. - Fixing water pipes...

- Tax? Income tax? Check for tax evasion?

- That's right. In come the new taps, out go the old. - That's right. Just check for leaks.

- Tax inspectors everywhere! - Tax inspectors everywhere!

------------------

- A man! - There is a man!

-...doing the taps... ...doing the taps...

- Attacks? Not attacks on women? Are you targeting women?

- I'll try anything once, but I'll try the taps on the bath first.

- Sex criminals everywhere! - Sex criminals everywhere!

Condescendingly and pointing fingers at bad films, I have always been in high spirits, but I was speechless when I came to a good film that was completely convincing.

This is one of the best comedies I've seen in recent years, and I can only put my hands up and say so.

    Indescribable excitement and love! Leaning forward and back together, all five bodies are thrown to the ground, this is what I have been looking forward to, a real comedy. Relying entirely on body, lines, and scheduling, all the joy, collapse and sadness before and after the stage are vividly displayed. Similar themes, from the perspective of the director's design, I think this is a better work than "Birdman".

    I tried my best... The scheduling is strong, but it's still a farce...
