This movie can be regarded as the originator of nonsensical comedy movies. It is estimated that when it is released, you may be just an egg. You can see too many classic sections of domestic comedy movies in this movie, and I don’t know how many times they have been copied and imitated.
In fact, I think comedy movies are quite difficult to evaluate, because people will laugh at this matter, which is very complicated in itself. If I ask you why people laugh, you will definitely not be able to answer it for a while.
Everyone’s laughter points are different. Some people laugh low, some people laugh high. Watching the same movie and listening to the same story, some people may laugh, some people may laugh, and some people laugh. It may seem like a smile but not a smile, some people may not smile, and some people may not smile.
My judgment of myself is not the kind with a particularly low smile. It can be regarded as a big scene, and I usually can't poke my point. At most, I slightly raised the corner of my mouth to show that I saw the efforts of the creative team in creating a laugh point and encouraged me. It's rare that there will be a lot of fun. But watching "The White Headed Detective", there are some places I really can't help it.
Don't watch "The White Headed Detective" while playing with your mobile phone. I suggest you treat it as a suspenseful brain-burning movie, and calm down to observe the details, otherwise you may miss a lot of laughter.
Although it is a super nonsensical movie, it is by no means a "shit" trick to detonate the audience. Its laughter often makes you hard to guard against, and the brain hole index is simply exploding. Even if you come up with this drama after 30 years, it won't make you regret it, no, regret meeting too late.
The movie is starring Leslie Nielsen, an old artist of Deyi Shuangxin, let’s just call it Lao Nitou for short.
Lao Nitou is different from Handou, Xiaoyueyue, and Teacher Shen Teng. Some comedians are naturally beautiful, and when they hit their mothers, they get the face of a comedian. Brackets, Shen Teng's personal behavior in this queue has nothing to do with his parents. The advantage is that they can be sold as a joke, and the audience will burst with one look without speaking. The disadvantage is that as soon as you show your face, you will break your work, and the play will be narrower.
As for Lao Nitou, if you look at it purely, he should be an actor with a wider play path. The first time you watched his movie, you might think he is a serious actor. Lao Nito has been in Hollywood for many years. He has already made his debut in 1950. When he was young, he was always a heroic character. When he appeared, he was also a corner of the stage with his hands pinched on the waist, ah, C position.
But when it comes to "being handsome in less than three seconds", no one dared to beat him. Stepping on the seven-colored clouds to appear on stage, and finally the dog eats shit to end, which is what old artists often do.
What is the specific performance of Lao Nitou in the play? I know it naturally after watching the film. If I haven't watched it, no matter how I play it, it won't help.
Let's first introduce the movie "The White-headed Detective".
Because it's a comedy movie, those who don't mind the spoilers can listen to it before watching it. If you mind, then we are still the old rules.
The Chinese name of the movie is-"The White-headed Detective", and there is nothing wrong with it. The protagonist's image and the character's background are described closely. It sounds like Zhao Qian, Sun Li, Zhou Wu, and Wang Zheng. At first glance, it should be the name given by a senior student who graduated from the Chinese Department.
But as soon as the original English name of the movie came out, I immediately bought myself clean-the English name naked gun, as all our English majors at level 8 friends should know, the literal translation is naked gun. The protagonist in the movie, indeed, it doesn’t matter whether you bring a gun or not. Sometimes it’s better to not bring it. Naked is a special 8 vocabulary. We are no strangers to those of us who often watch action micro movies. Okay, congratulations. Welfare is here. There are really one or two shots of Lao Ni’s 62-year-old man's body in the movie. In the back of the word Gun, there are more puns in one word. English and Chinese are similar to each other. We can't say this too carefully, and the frequency of occurrence in movies is not low.
Of course, a successful movie can't have only one name. It has other Chinese translations, and you can see that it is the title translated by compatriots in Taiwan. Everyone in Taiwan understands that the translation of movie titles is very arbitrary. For example, "Warm Corpse" is called "How can a zombie look so handsome" in Taiwan, "Brain Squad" is called "Brain Teaser", and "Xiao Shengke's" "Redemption" plus "Stimulation 1995." Sometimes, it is uniform. For example, "Pirates of the Caribbean" is called "Ghosts and Ghosts" in Taiwan, "Mummy" is called "Legend of Ghosts and Ghosts", and "The Bourgge" is called "Certified Ghosts".
I thought that after watching so many translations from Taiwan, I would not make any waves in my heart if I watched any strange titles. Ha ha, then I overestimated myself. This time I accepted it and was convinced. Do you think people translated it into "Ghost Detective" at best, but they came up with "Brave to Save the Boss" in an upright manner. What the hell is this TM? I think it is necessary for the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television to intervene in the chaos in the film and television circles like Taiwan. Let's not talk about this translation, which emphasizes "faithfulness, expressiveness, and elegance". Anyway, you also have a little bit of it. Can't we take a step back and translate it into "Ghost Detective" and make do with it? Later, I found out, I rely on, it turned out to be an oolong, and the person is not a Taiwanese translator, but a Hong Kong translator. I actually blamed the Taiwan compatriots for so many years.
Forget it, what happened 30 years ago is not going to be held accountable. We almost went off the track just now. Let's continue to introduce the movie.
Lao Nitou plays a tricky detective in the movie, but has repeatedly made extraordinary achievements. Every time a case is handled, the whole of Los Angeles has to be turned upside down, but he is still trusted by the mayor and the chief of the police department, and he is also the best pig teammate of the year loved by his colleagues and subordinates. I don’t know if the names of the characters in the play are carefully planned by the director or deliberately arranged by the producer. It is very likely that it was specially instructed by freshman students from the Chinese department of our country's well-known colleges and universities. The 1988 movie carefully considered the infancy Chinese entertainment market. Lao Nitou has an English name in the play that is very friendly to Chinese fans, called Drebin. The Chinese transliteration is obvious, clumsy, clumsy, and clumsy. In line with the plot, it can be said to be tailor-made.
The prologue of the movie, the old Nitou bravely rushed into the tiger's den Longtan to destroy a terrorist organization den.
He pretends to be a humpbacked Arabian attendant, serving tea to the chief marshal of a room. There are a few faces in the room that we are familiar with, such as Gaddafi in Libya, Khomeini in Iran, and Ge in the former Soviet Union. Albachev, Cuba’s Castro, Palestine’s Arafat, etc., and so on. There was a guest who looked quite like Putin on the back of a bear. It was only 88 years ago, and Putin estimated that he was only a Kokbo. Little detective. In short, they are all heads who are likely to have weapons of mass destruction in their homes. Although they could not dispute how to plan a terrifying terrorist plan, they had one thing in common. They were all discussing American hegemony with the other guests in the venue in a homely English language. Why do we say "guests" here, because the leaders are still wearing the summit forum participants' listings on their chests. You feel that there may be applause at any time, and then one of them will stand up and walk to the podium to start a speech.
Before the leaders could compete for any fame, the old Nito appeared on the stage, with the passionate background music, to subdue the leaders one by one, and finally they were squeezed to their heads by the window.
Then I entered the most iconic opening and theme music of the series, which is the music we heard at the beginning. The picture is the first angle of view of the police car, just taken from the roof of the car. In the center of the lens is a flashing warning light, which should be in the police state.
In fact, the first time I watched "The White-Headed Detective", I didn't pay much attention to the opening of the film. I just felt that the driving skills of the police car were a bit poor. But after a closer look, I found something was wrong. So as I said before, this movie should be viewed as a suspense and brain-burning movie. If we want to go to the toilet halfway, we still have to develop the good habit of pressing the pause first.
The police car first drove into the street without any problems, and then drove into the car wash shop, very careful about police appearance, and then drove to the road tines, which caused the passers-by to panic and avoid the need to handle the case. Then, it was a bit anti-scientific, and it was discovered that the police car broke directly into the house and drove into the house. The people in the house began to avoid the police car in an overwhelming manner. As the police car drove into the women’s locker room shamelessly, the women screamed and fled. Of course, the camera here is more restrained, otherwise the film type might not be a comedy. The camera switched again and came to the amusement park. The police lights in the screen shuttled back and forth on the roller coaster track, and the screams of tourists could be heard in the ears. This title, I learned after watching the movie, it was actually used for the awkward driving skills of the black and clumsy police detective. We will expand on his driving skills later.
Why is this title called an iconic title, because the three "White-Headed Detectives" are all shots of this, but the scenes are completely different, anyway, there are brain holes everywhere. In the opening of the second film, the police car was delivered directly from the body in the delivery room, which made me feel a little bit embarrassed.
If there are no warning lights in the camera, in fact, the people in the scene are very real reactions, very serious performances. The police car, there is no problem at all, the scene, there is no problem at all, but the police car plus the scene, it becomes a series-"I rely on, your sister, I will go".
The whole movie basically implements such a style, which is serious and unreasonable. Among them, Lao Nitou is of course a typical of this style, as you will know later.
The main line of the movie started from the failure of the black brother of Lao Nito to investigate the case. This black brother doesn't play much time, but the misfortunes of all the other characters in the movie are not as much as he alone.
After being killed during the investigation, the black brother was simply saved and was wrapped up in a hospital bed like a mummy. Old Nito, the chief of the police station, and the wife of the black brother came to visit. Here, Lao Nitou is about to start a venomous attack with a serious face.
When Lao Ni first came up, his own hand gave the injured brother a heavy blow. Then began to inquire about the black brother's case.
Black brother said, I love you
The old man said, brother, I know
The black brother said, speedboat, speedboat
The old man said, yes, speedboat, when you recover, we will go to sea together, the same as last year
The black brother said, no. . . medicine
Lao Nito quickly yelled to the medical staff, nurse, hurry up, give him an injection, don’t you see how painful he is now?
The black brother said, no. . . Heroin
The old man looked embarrassed, but there seemed to be room for maneuvering. He secretly told the black brother, brother, this requirement is a bit high, you have to give me a few days to help you handle it.
It turned out that the black brother discovered that someone was selling heroin on a speedboat called "I Love You," and that's why he encountered the accident.
The wife of the black brother on the side felt very uncomfortable seeing her seriously injured husband, and the old man was ready to comfort her.
The black lady cried and complained that my husband has never hurt others. Who would do such a wicked thing to him?
The old man took the conversation, there are many possibilities, bewitched, anonymous letter, angry husband, gay lover...
Hearing "angry husband" and "gay lover", before the old nun could finish speaking, the black lady cried in a mess. Think about it, everyone, "angry husband", "gay lover".
The Secretary can't stand it anymore, comforting the black wife, he will get better, and think about a good place. Don't give up hope until the last minute.
When the old man heard this, he agreed, and told the black wife that the director was right. However, don't wait until the last minute to fill in the organ donation card.
When the black lady heard it, she cried again.
The Chief hurriedly relieved the siege, saying that Lao Nitou meant that once your husband's condition improves, he can return to work in the police force.
The old Nito took the words again, unless, he became a vegetable, but I think it will generally be like this.
The black lady was completely crazy when she heard it.
I guess we might have heard a joke like this, but after Lao Ni’s stern gestures, it really makes people’s stomachs unbearable. Just like the old artist who performed Ma Yimei in "Charlotte's Annoyance", at a certain age, it is almost effortless to tease.
Here, by the way, the actor who suffered all kinds of misfortunes for black brothers is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He is the protagonist of the famous Simpson case in the United States, Simpson.
Well, I just seemed to be off the track again, let's go back to the dispensable plot.
The main background of the story is that the Queen of England visited the United States and took Los Angeles as the main city to visit. Los Angeles welcomed the Queen's arrival and prepared a series of ceremonies and important activities. For this reason, the city of Los Angeles has specially deployed police forces to support the Queen’s security work. Unfortunately, the female mayor invited the clumsy team known as "reliable". More unfortunately, the female mayor also specially arranged a press conference.
Let’s go to the press conference today, and maybe it won’t be too new, because this section has been imitated by too many comedies later.
At the beginning of the press conference, the old Nito was drinking vigorously. As soon as he saw this foreshadowing, he knew that there was not much good time left for the female mayor. Sure enough, when the mayor made a speech, the old nun urinated and went to the bathroom. According to the amount of water I explained before, the old nun couldn't come back for a while. I guess you guessed it too. That's right, the resolute old man wouldn't remember to turn off the microphone. So when the female mayor spoke on the news, what came out was the sound of water in the toilet like a flood, and the singing of the old nun running to tune. In addition, Lao Nitou may have some prostate problems, so everyone can imagine this situation. A group of reporters and cameras are facing the female mayor, and Los Angeles citizens are still watching the live broadcast in front of the TV. Seeing this, I still sympathize with the female mayor, but knowing that there must be a bigger hole waiting for her in the back, it seems that it doesn't matter.
In short, the story is mainly about how the old nun did a good job in the security of the queen, and investigated the mystery of the murder of the black brother. Obviously, these two lines must also overlap in the end.
Next, I won’t follow the storyline and talk about it bit by bit, I will just pick some places that I find fun to talk about. However, in view of the limitations of my writing ability, I still recommend that you go to the movies, which is definitely more fun than what I said.
The old man went to the dock to investigate the case of the black brother. Although the old man was upright and jealous, he also knew how to be a worldly man. He has his own way to get clues at the crime scene.
He found the terminal administrator and asked the other party for clues. The other party said why I wanted to tell you the clues. There is no comment, unless there is 20 dollars, so the old man gave 20 dollars to the administrator. The administrator of Ruobao Zhibao told the old Nito the clues he wanted, and asked the old Nito why you want these clues. The old Nito said why I want to tell you why I want the clues. No comment. , Unless there is 20 dollars. So the administrator gave another 20 dollars to the old nun, and the old nun also told the administrator why he wanted clues. In this way, Lao Ni did not spend a single point to get a clue.
The old man followed the clues to investigate the tycoon. The office of the wealthy tycoon was full of treasures. Once there is an account of the valuables in a comedy movie, we can basically guess their final good luck. I won't go into details here, because many movies have been imitated.
While investigating the tycoon, Lao Nito met the heroine of the White Detective Trilogy-hey, our "Shi Tau Po" finally appeared on the scene. She is solemn and elegant, and even the background music changes when she comes on stage. The old man fell in love at first sight, and his inner monologue overflowed with the background music. But the good times didn't last long. She fell a dog and ate shit before she walked down the stairs three steps steadily. When she stood up again, she was already messed up, and the head lady was going to take Lao Ni's head into the warehouse, but when she turned around, she hit the wall again. This is called, it's not that a family doesn't enter a family, but the handsome talent of three seconds brings this pair of destined people together.
As a result, the relationship between the old nun and the first wife quickly heated up, and the filming method of the film also switched from a police and gangster movie to a drama, which is the kind of filming that we are very common in, one by one, two lovers happily everywhere. Run by the beach together, eat hot dogs in the playground, and watch movies together. It's just that there must be a lot of sections that violate science. For example, the two laughed happily after watching a movie. You thought they had just watched "The White-headed Detective", and the picture changed. It turns out that they watched the 1987 Oscar Best Picture-"Field Platoon". A war movie that is too serious to describe the cruelty of the Vietnam War.
When they got home, the two hit the iron while it was hot, wanting to do something that men and women love. However, the identities under consideration have not yet been determined, and both agreed to take security measures. Unexpectedly, both of them took out extra-large safety tools, and went to see for themselves.
This pair of mandarin ducks actually had contradictions. In the late movie, Lao Nitou and Shitoupo had a torturous scene. The old Nitou mistakenly thought that Shitoupo was a spy sent by a monopoly, saying that he had misunderstood the wrong person and wanted to talk to him. The head of the matter draws a line. At this time, the unidentified headwoman of the matter was of course trying his best to keep it, but the old Nito seemed determined, and said a lot of things that hurt the headwoman. It's like the tearing force of a girlfriend, which is very exciting. In the end it was almost done, when he felt like he was going to die. He turned around and made up another knife. "By the way, every time I have an orgasm is a pretense." Damn, it turns out that men can use these words as well.
Later, in the hospital, the old man wanted to assassinate his black brother, so he hunted him down. The other party first grabbed a car and escaped. Lao Nito rushed to the road. Like many police and criminal films, he showed his identity as a police detective and asked for the vehicle to be requisitioned. Then he quickly got into the vehicle and directed the driver to hunt down the fugitive.
The difference is that he requisitioned a driving school car. In the driver's seat is a woman who has just started learning to drive, and in the co-pilot is her elderly driving school teacher. It was found that the "devil head" had finished driving while driving, so she bit her scalp and hurried after it. The driving school teacher unhurriedly instructed the female driver to put in gears and what to do after seeing the traffic lights. Lao Nitou was in the back row to show which route to follow to catch up with the murderer. The female student drove slowly on the road, and then a car passed her by her. In the middle, she drove into the reverse lane because of the short cut. When the opposite big truck drove over, the driving school teacher calmly told the female driver to put in reverse gear, step on the gas pedal, and even taught the female driver to raise her middle finger.
Fortunately, Lao Ni was not allowed to drive here, otherwise there might be more slots. Every time the old Nito drives out, he knows that someone is going to be unlucky again. The first time he drove in the movie, he just got off the plane and drove from the airport back to the police station. He was in peace all the way. He discussed the case and gossip with the chief. When they stopped at the police station, they hadn't noticed that the airport was hanging on the bottom of the car. Luggage cart.
Go to the wharf to investigate crimes, and as soon as you stop at random, people who eat melons fly out from the shore and fall into the water. A good parking space on the side of the road does not stop. Be sure to park next to the construction building, and then smash the scaffolding apart. Anyway, people suffer every time I drive.
The funniest part was at the entrance of the police station, because the airbag hit someone else’s car while parking, and the handbrake was squeezed out. The car slid off the slope and rushed out. The old man rolled over and took out his pistol. He came to shoot at his car, and then asked the police officer beside him if anyone had written down the license plate number of the vehicle that caused the accident, and if anyone saw the driver's appearance.
The stalk of this car technology has been used in the next two parts. At the beginning of the second part, Nito was invited to meet President Bush Sr. because he killed 1,000 drug dealers. The last two drug dealers he killed were accidentally killed when he was reversing.
The plot develops to the final climax, and the villain's deeds are slowly revealed. It turned out that Putin, who appeared in the prologue of the Monopoly Joint Prologue, planned an assassination of the Queen of England, and the location of the assassination was arranged at a baseball game where the mayor invited the Queen to attend.
Here we have to put aside the trivial plot first. Because the jokes here are hidden in the baseball culture of the American people. We usually watch the NBA more, and we feel that we have more attention than our own domestic games. In fact, for the United States, people do not see the NBA as much as we do. Lao Mei’s heart is the olive tree first, and baseball second. In American culture, the status of baseball is very important. But here, "The White-headed Detective" is about to start a grandfather of the spiritual and cultural wealth of the American people.
For example, we often see athletes spitting, right, of course, this vice is not unique to the old beauty. Cristiano Ronaldo does it, and Messi does it too. At the beginning, an athlete spit, and then the opposing player began to spit, and then all the players on the field started to spit, and then the players on the bench began to spit, and finally even the players in the audience. The family members began to spit.
Another slot is this. Isn’t it true that people on baseball fields often sell hot dogs and sodas in the aisle? If you sit far away but want to buy them, you have to pass the things over individually. Coincidentally, some people bought hot dogs and sodas at the VIP table where Her Majesty was sitting. The purchases were passed on from Her Majesty’s side. Although she looked confused, in order to integrate into the local culture, she also bought hot dogs and soft drinks. The picture was passed on.
Immediately afterwards, the crowds on the baseball field began again. Her Majesty found that she needed to be a crowd with everyone on the VIP seats, so she followed others to make a crowd and integrate into the local culture.
What is our old nun doing right now? I didn't say it before, because in the previous process of handling the case, there were repeated acts of disrespect to Her Majesty, the old Nitou had been revoked from the security team captain's duties and was restricted from approaching Her Majesty. However, he did not give up because of his enthusiasm. Instead, he entered the baseball field in his own way. He pretended to be a referee, and while deciding the game, he searched the players. In order to delay the time, the old Ni head tried every means to interfere with the game, and the penalty was severely deviated. The obvious bad ball was judged as a good one, and the obvious good ball was judged as a bad one. Therefore, there was a quarrel with other referees on the court, which caused huge controversy. The players on the field simply stopped doing it, and they started to noisy. There was no one on the huge baseball field playing the game properly. In the end, all the players simply scrambled together, and the scene was extremely chaotic. Her Majesty the Queen was also watching silently in the stands. Because she didn't understand the local culture, she thought about going to the countryside and doing the same. Maybe it's normal in the United States.
In the chaos, the killer appeared. At this time, the old Nito was desperately squeezed out of the crowd, trying to use Conan to shoot Kogoro Moori's anesthesia gun to kill the killer. Unexpectedly, the shooting method was so thin that he hit a lady thousands of miles away. Of course, this lady again Hit the killer impartially. The result is that the crooked fight is right, the danger is turned into a bargain, and Lao Ni has once again become a hero of the people.
The story is almost over here, ah, almost. In fact, there are many interesting places in the film.
There are some details that you can't even think of. We know that the early movies were mainly shot in the studio, especially the indoor scenes, which were basically cubicles. There was actually no wall on the side of these cubicles facing the audience. Sometimes we watched it. At the end of that kind of sitcom, a long shot will be zoomed out, and then you will see a house with few walls. Therefore, there are often some shots in the movie. A person walks from outside the door to the inside of the door. We can see the scene outside the door and the camera will follow through the wall. Because we know it is necessary for shooting, we have become accustomed to it. But I didn't expect that "The White Headed Detective" would not even let this stalk go. When the chief of the police station walked into the room through the door normally, the old man simply walked through the wall from the camera position and walked into the room. Then as if nothing happened, continue acting. This lens is very short. It flashes past. Even if you see it, you may think it is a piercing lens, but it is actually designed by others. It has a very cryptic slot. I really admire the film's brain hole. Such details are also Can be used.
Another example is that at the pier where the black brothers failed to handle the case and fell into the water, there was a group of policemen on the spot to investigate. We know that the police at the scene of the crime usually draw white lines where the deceased was killed, right. The police in the movie are no exception, and they are more dedicated. The black brothers fell into the water from the yacht, so the police were on the water. A figure was surrounded by a white streamer, so we saw a figure floating on the water one after another. The policeman on the side was still sitting in a small boat and taking photos of the figure seriously.
Another short shot. It was in the banquet hall hosting the Queen of England. The table was filled with a sumptuous dinner party, with a custom-made cake in the middle. The waiter was cutting the cake with a knife for the guests to enjoy. The cake was obviously very delicious and the guests were very satisfied. It's just that the content of the cake customization is the head of the Queen of England. When cutting the cake, the knife is cut down, just at the position of the Queen's neck.
In fact, lenses like this are not very deliberate to explain, they are all flashed by, and we need to work hard to find them.
There are a total of three parts in "The White-headed Detective". Here, we can find the source of some of the parts in many nonsense movies that we have seen.
When the first film of "The White-headed Detective" was released, Lao Nitou was already 62 years old. Didn’t I say that Lao Nitou has a wide road to play? When he was young, he did not actually follow the path of comedians. I did not expect this transformation. I can't get it anymore, and it proves that it's never too late to make the right choice.
In addition to "The White-headed Detective", Lao Nitou has acted in many comedy movies. If you also like this kind of serious and unreasonable style, I recommend searching online to see it.
Because everyone is not familiar with Lao Nitou, they certainly don't know. In fact, Lao Nitou had already driven to Hexi in 2010. But the happiness he left behind will always be with us, thank this old artist, and pay tribute to the old artist in heaven.
Okay, that's all for today's sharing. See you next time.
