Go through the "maze" to see "three shots"

After all the hard work, I finally got to the prototype of "Three Shots"-"Blood Maze". After watching it, I have a new understanding of "Three Shots".


The biggest feeling is that "Blood Labyrinth" is a suspenseful film full of repressive dark and bloody, but Lao Mouzi turned it into a comedy, no wonder it is awkward everywhere, it seems to have gotten the skeleton of a wolf, but it has to Install the flesh and blood of the pig, and then take a catwalk to make you amused. It's unreasonable to laugh and laugh, and it's unreasonable to be afraid and afraid.


The structure of "Three Shots" is still relatively faithful to the original. The boss found the wife and the guy's adultery and asked the killer to kill them. The killer forged evidence of the murder, but killed the boss; the guy found the body and disposed of it. In order to retrieve the fake evidence of the murder, the killer killed the guy, and was finally killed by the boss.



Comparing the details of the two films, there are still many interesting points.



The first is the source of the gun. In "Three Guns", the boss bought the gun on her own initiative, while in "Blood Maze", the gun boss gave her a birthday gift. It can also be seen here that the positioning of the boss lady in "Three" and "Blood" is different. In "Blood", the lady boss cheating is just a little awkwardness with the boss, a one-night stand on a whim, while in "Three", the lady boss is insulted by the boss, determined to cheat, and has been out for a long time. In this way, the boss lady in "Three" is more positive and braver. By the way, there are at least two bed scenes in "Blood", but in "Three", there are no kisses, and it is an extramarital affair. This boy is so embarrassed to die.



In "Blood", the boss often appears in the tavern, while in "Three", the boss lives in a dark basement, almost like a big boss in the game. The only time he came out was when he was dragged out by Xiao Shenyang after his death. Therefore, the boss in "Three" is a bit isolated from the world. Is he practicing in retreat, practicing evil martial arts such as Jiuyin White Bone Claws?



The private detective in "Blood" is a very greedy, shameless and lustful villain. Sun Honglei in "Three" seems to have no character except for being ruthless, very flat. This also directly led to the lack of plot impetus in "Three". In "Blood", the only reason the private detective kills the boss is that the boss looks down on him. After the boss was killed, the private investigator's sentence: "Look at who is stupid now" can be seen, but there is no such explanation in "Three", so the boss was killed a bit abruptly.


In "Blood", it takes only a few minutes from the murder to the discovery and removal of the body by the buddy, so the resurrection after death is barely acceptable. In "Three", at least one day span, it is incredible to survive.



Look at the props. The most critical prop in "Blood" is the Zippo lighter. It seems natural. As a patrolman, Sun Honglei is especially still at work. It is a bit nondescript to hold a big pipe and pot.



Although the safe looks awkward, it has not been verified, and I dare not say that there was no such thing in ancient China, so let it go.


Shooting the boss and leaving the weapon on the scene is definitely to plant the boss. This point in "Three Shots" has not changed, so it is still more credible.



The key evidence was found. In "Blood", it was the proprietress who discovered the Zippo lighter, and in "Three", it was Xiao Shenyang who found the pipe pot while shit. The latter is too coincidental, and it feels very unreliable.



Looking at the last killer chasing the buddy and the boss wife, from the point of view of motivation, the private detective in "Blood" is trying to regain the key evidence-fake photos, probably because they are afraid of their own fingerprints. In "Three", Sun Honglei seems to have no need to get his blood jacket back. Is the criminal investigation technology of that society so advanced?


In "Blood", the detective first sniped the guy, and then he dared to break in. From the physical point of view, the guy is young and strong, and the detective is old and weak. It is reasonable to do so, and Sun Honglei is martial and strong, facing two chairs. It seems that Xiao Shenyang doesn't have this need. It should be done quickly by pushing the door.


Zhang Yimou sighed, saying that his biggest problem now is that he can't find a good script that can be filmed. He is not a master of script writing, but he can barely find it difficult. Judging from the effect of the adaptation of "Three Shots", this sentence is the truth. Don't do this stupid thing in the future. You can take pictures, choreograph, talk and count the money.





Attachment:



It is not easy to persuade Zhang Yimou to use Xiao Shenyang!

It was Zhang Weiping's idea to use Xiao Shenyang in "Three Shots". This idea frightened Zhang Yimou at first. The screenplay of the Coen Brothers, which was bought for millions of dollars, is a thriller and mystery film without any comedy. "It's not easy! You want Yimou's tendon! But his tendon touched my tendon, and finally I convinced him." The technique of persuasion? "Anyway, it makes him tickle!"

Zhang Weiping analyzed with Zhang Yimou, "Everyone is having a lot of trouble now. If your movie is scary and nervous, your palms will sweat and your body will be trembling. I think. After the audience has finished watching, they basically have something to do...We must let everyone relax!"

After finishing the "Three Shots", the first audience was born in the 90s. "The film that has just been made must not be watched by literati and film experts! If the experts say yes, basically this movie will be blind. All I asked for was a bunch of post-90s. After watching them, they discussed and talked a lot. Something, even you film reporters can't think of it!"



This is the culprit!

    The Coen brothers' debut, created in 1984, cost only $800,000, and was shot in two months. In 2009, producer Zhang Weiping spent $2 million to purchase the copyright of the film, and invited Zhang Yimou to shoot "Three Shots and Shoot the Case Surprise" accordingly. I've seen it before, but I don't remember much. After watching Zhang Yimou's "Three Guns", this film is much better than "Three Guns" in terms of camera usage, emotional control, detail design, character characterization, and atmosphere creation.

    Did the killer go back because he found a photo was missing, or did he go back because he found a lighter, and why did he suspect Ray took his stuff.
