The opening scene is a grand scene outlined by Yan State's ink-splashed landscape, which astonishes the two viewers. The background then shifts to the land of Yan State. It can be seen that the film was shot in Yan State and the timeline is in ancient times. Then two protagonists are introduced, one is Nian Sui Han and the other is Xi Ru Hua.

Miss Bai Jin couldn't help but exclaimed: "I didn't expect the director to personally take the lead role."

Miss White Wolf was equally excited: "I am both directing and acting, which is a real test of the director's ability. This film is not an easy one."

"But why is Xi Ruhua so reluctant? Isn't there any narration to explain it?"

"It must be a foreshadowing that will be revealed later."

"Feel the same."

ten minutes later……

Miss Bai Jin frowned. "I don't quite understand. Xi Ruhua only appeared at the beginning, but why is it all Nian Sui Han afterwards?"

Miss White Wolf seemed to be thinking: "Some movies have profound meanings. It's normal not to understand them the first time. Besides, we just watched them not long ago."

"Oh."

Half an hour later...

Miss Bai Jin scratched her hair in annoyance: "Isn't the name of this movie called Conquering the Demons? Why haven't we seen any demons yet?"

"This...wait a minute."

"Xi Ruhua also seemed to be missing. She only appeared in the first two minutes."

"Maybe she is not the protagonist, and we made a mistake. What is certain is that Nian Sui Han is definitely the protagonist."

……

An hour later, the movie progress bar showed that two-thirds of the way had passed.

The demon Huang Tianba (Huang, played by Wang Xueyan) suddenly appeared, beat an innocent villager to death (Meilansha, dead), then jumped onto a two-story building and made a domineering gesture.

The camera suddenly shifts to Yan Xiazui (played by Yan Rong), a girl who is seriously injured and fleeing, looking for ways to get rid of the demon.

A mysterious master (Furong) points out that the answer is in the Sword-Forging Villa, and only by asking the owner of the Sword-Forging Villa to help forge a demon-slaying sword can the demon be defeated.

Seeing this, Miss White Wolf no longer had the appetite for snacks. She scratched her head and tried hard to interpret its meaning: "I think this movie uses some very new camera techniques and narrative schemes."

"So, the real protagonist is actually Miss Yan Rong, ah, no, it's Yan Xiazui, right?"

"Maybe it is."

"Then why do you start with Nian Sui Han?"

"The director may be trying to go against the grain."

Next, the film officially enters its climax. Nian Sui Han, the owner of the Sword-Forging Villa, helps Yan Xiazui forge a magical weapon, and then accompanies Yan Xiazui to the West to fight demons.

They encountered a big river on the way. On the way to cross the river, the bridge suddenly broke. Yanxia fell into the river and died. Nian Suihan was left alone. He walked forward with a sword in the background of sad and tragic music.

After a dazzling special effect, the demon was stabbed to death by a mad sword. Just when Nian Sui Han was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a cold wind blew and something strange happened suddenly.

It turns out that the demon was also devoted to studying ancient equipment. After his death, the seal of the equipment was lifted. Amidst a huge roar, a majestic modern steel mecha appeared on the screen.

Nian Sui Han once again threw himself into the battle without hesitation.

……

After the movie ended, Miss White Wolf sat there in a daze, her face turning pale and blue, not saying a word.

Miss Platinum was already very happy. You know, when she watched movies, she mainly watched White Wolf. To some extent, the effect of this movie could be called a masterpiece in her mind.

She poked Miss White Wolf with her finger and deliberately teased her in a particularly nagging tone:

"What's wrong? Why aren't you talking?"

Chapter 2023: The Art of Whitewashing07-12-12 00:03:

Miss White Wolf rolled her eyes and glared at the Kuranta people who had bad intentions:

"What do you want me to say?"

Miss Bai Jin gloated and said, "Please give me your evaluation. I want to hear your professional film review."

“This kind of film…”

“This is a Rhode Island film.”

“There’s a reason Rhode Island doesn’t put its name on it.”

"Hey, don't worry about it. Just praise this movie and praise it with all the theories in your head."

“Why do you want me to praise you?”

Miss Platinum said bluntly: "I can defeat you only if you praise it."

Miss White Wolf's eyelids twitched: "I think you want to quarrel."

Miss Bai Jin smiled and said, "You don't dare, right?"

Miss White Wolf said disdainfully: "What a clumsy way of provoking me. You deliberately pushed me to the disadvantageous side and then did this."

"You wouldn't dare to do that if you're on the disadvantaged side, right?"

"The key is……"

"Just tell me whether you dare?"

"you……"

Miss White Wolf was so angry that she wanted to bite someone. She gritted her teeth and said, "As long as you don't make trouble and speak reasonably, I don't mind the disadvantage."

"You are worthy of being Miss White Wolf. Since you are so confident, it seems that you are not afraid to make a bet with me."

"Tsk, would I be afraid of you? What are you betting on?"

"Let's bet..." Miss Bai Jin stared into Bai Lang's eyes, "Let's bet on something fun. If the loser loses, the winner has the right to do anything to her, and the loser is not allowed to resist."

The latter gave in faster than he had imagined. Although he tried to hold on with his mouth, his mind was too hesitant to agree.

Bai Jin took advantage of the situation and pursued:

"Oh, some people are so cowardly that they won't admit it and insist on saying they are not afraid of anything."

Miss White Wolf blushed and said stubbornly, "I didn't. It's mainly because of your bet. It's too frivolous. If someone loses the debate, they will lose their sovereignty directly."

"What you said sounds reasonable." Miss Bai Jin said thoughtfully.

"Yeah, that's too exaggerated."

"How about this," Miss Platinum suggested, "Ten minutes, and the loser is not allowed to resist anything within ten minutes."

"ten minutes……"

Miss White Wolf still hesitated whether to agree.

Miss Bai Jin looked impatient: "Oh, five minutes, five minutes is enough, Bai Lang, if you continue like this, I will look down on you."

Miss White Wolf also knew that it was inconvenient to delay any longer, so she nodded in agreement immediately. Five minutes was basically within the safe range, not to mention that she had a good chance of winning.

"Okay, five minutes is five minutes."

"You must buy it before you leave." Miss Bai Jin's face flushed slightly, and she said expectantly, "Bai Lang is willing to defend the film directed by Nian Sui Han, and he knows about it and agrees to bear all the costs after losing."

"Agreed, you too."

"Yeah, me too."

"Then let's get started."

"can."

Miss Bai Jin turned the computer screen to her side so that Bai Lang couldn't see it, and started operating it herself.

"What are you doing?"

"You are an expert in theory, and I know nothing. Is it okay to use external means?"

"Sure, but I'm no expert."

"That's still many times stronger than me. You can definitely defeat me with just a few words."

"Nothing like that." Miss White Wolf said modestly while wagging her tail proudly. "I am a reasonable person. I have to convince others to do something."

She saw Miss Bai Jin, who was looking up information, with a strange smile on her face, and couldn't help asking, "What are you looking up? Victoria's Film and Television Theory Collection?"

"No."

"Film literary criticism?"

“Not really. I’m reading the comments section.”

Comment section?

Comment section!!

It was just a simple sentence, but it was like a thunderbolt exploding in Miss White Wolf's heart. At that moment, she seemed to see a vast ocean formed by terrible power, and boundless fear began to spread in her heart.

The other party was not looking up information, but inspecting the ammunition depot. Miss Platinum wanted to find the most suitable weapon to smash her poor friend to pieces.

The excited smile on his face is the smile of the devil, which shows that this person will not show any mercy when he takes action.

Miss White Wolf became sad alone.

From Miss Platinum's perspective, although she has enough ammunition, she still has to carefully select it to deal with White Wolf. She must eliminate a lot of useless comments, such as:

'Oh my god, spare my eyes'

'What on earth did I do wrong to see this movie?'

"I wonder what the director's mental state was when he made this film."

'Rubbish'

This type of comments are often harsh in their words, but they do not meet Miss White Wolf's standard of "reasoning". The victory she needs is to use the best of these ammunition to defeat the opponent in the area where the opponent excels.

Only if Miss White Wolf loses with conviction can she successfully accomplish what she wants.

After a brief preparation, Miss Platinum cleared her throat and began to attack with interest. She was also curious about how Miss White Wolf would respond:

"The movie has a lot of problems," she said. "First, the characters are confusing. There are a lot of characters in the movie, but two-thirds of them have no clear role. The director makes these characters appear layer by layer, and I believe most viewers will not understand why."

Miss White Wolf rubbed her forehead in distress. This role-playing game was too difficult for her, but she couldn't lose...

After some thought, she clarified her position and decided to free her bound mind. At the same time, her expression became serious:

"Obviously, you didn't understand the director's true intention. The large number of characters is not a problem, but the essence of the movie. This is actually a way of interpreting a group of characters. If you don't understand group portraits, then you will at least have heard of the immortal masterpiece of Victorian writer Tolstoy, Conflict and Peace. The two use the same method, and the director took great pains to imply it in them."

Seeing that the other party spoke so calmly, Miss Bai Jin was frightened for a moment. After thinking about her own task, she quickly found the next one: "The camera language of the movie is morbid and chaotic, and it keeps switching, just to match the appearance of a large number of meaningless characters."

"If you watch enough movies, you will understand that this is actually Columbia's latest montage technique. The movie keeps switching shots, which also implies deep meaning. I don't know if the reviewers have noticed that every time the shot is switched, although other characters will change, 'Nian Sui Han' is always in the center. This is actually the use of the 'stream of consciousness' technique in the movie. If there is a problem with the director's use of the camera, the problem is that it is too advanced. The director outlined this work of art in an almost showy way. Perhaps ten or even dozens of years later, people will understand its true value."

Miss Bai Jin looked at the other party's confident words and felt a little self-doubting. She asked fearfully, "Bai Lang, are you telling the truth?"

"it is true."

Miss White Wolf answered seriously.

Chapter 2023 Treating People with Their Own Kindness07-12-12 10:02:

Miss Bai Jin was highly focused, carefully looking through the comments, combining her own understanding, and spoke again:

"The character Xi Ruhua is a failure. She only appears once in the beginning of the whole movie and has nothing to do with the rest of the plot."

"No." Miss Bailang said firmly, "Xi Ruhua is the soul of the movie. The reason why Nian Sui Han forged swords for others and why he agreed to exorcise demons lies in Xi Ruhua. Because Xi Ruhua is Nian Sui Han's sister, who was taken away by the demon. She is Nian Sui Han's only relative and the person he cherishes most in the world."

"Ah...you, how are you sure?"

"The director has actually hinted at it, and you can find it by observing the details such as clothing accessories and character appearance. At the beginning of the movie, Xi Ruhua looked unhappy and complaining, while Nian Sui Han was beaming with joy. This kind of scene is most likely to appear when a younger sister is with an older sister who loves her but is not understood. Also, pay attention to their names. Yan people like to use metaphors in their names, Nian Sui Han, Nian, Xi Ruhua, Xi, after New Year's Eve comes New Year, is there any need to question the relationship between Nian and Xi?"

"No, that's not necessary." Miss Bai Jin nodded in astonishment. Her mind was a little confused and she wanted to join Miss Bai Lang.

No, she couldn't lose. This was a hard-won opportunity. As long as she won, she could, could...

Miss Bai Jin's eyes became resolute again, and her fighting spirit ignited in her heart: "The protagonist of the movie is vague and unclear, which is a taboo in drama writing."

"No, a playwright who can only play a single protagonist is a standard mediocrity and will never break away from the stale paradigm. In this work, Nian Sui Han, Xi Ru Hua, and Yan Xia Zui are all protagonists, corresponding to the demon-slaying line, the soul line, and the tragic line respectively. The three lines are intertwined and integrated with each other, and the audience can interpret it from any angle."

"Okay, let's focus on the protagonist of the third route, Yan Xiazui. Why did she die suddenly? It would be fine if her death was meaningful, but that's not the case."

"People always think that people must die meaningfully, but the reality is not like that. The former is people's fantasy. Director Nian's intention is to strip away the illusion and present the reality nakedly to people. Another hobby of people is to put themselves in the shoes of the so-called protagonist, so the death of the protagonist can bring a great aesthetic shock. Let's put it this way, many years later, people may forget many works they have seen, but it will be difficult to forget the death of Yan Xiazui. The art of tragedy is closer to eternity."
