"Director Please Advise" has a double-whining accident again?
This time it was Bao Bell who was exposed to plagiarism ↓
The cause was Xu Benchen, a graduate student at the Beijing Film Academy, accusing Bao Bell of directing the short film "The Long Parting" on Weibo for plagiarizing her graduation work "Paper Boat Family"↓
Tachibana went to see two short films and made some comparisons based on the points listed by the blogger.
First, let's look at the character setting.
Bao Bell's "Long Parting" is that the mother has terminal cancer, the two brothers have a dispute, and the younger brother blames the brother for not treating the mother.
Xu Benchen's "Paper Boat Family" is that his father has terminal cancer, and his sister blames his sister for not treating his father...
The two character settings are actually male and female interchanges, and the rest are copied and pasted.
The blogger also mentioned the issue of narrative structure.
"The Long Parting" first shows the family interior ↓
Then ride an electric car ↓
The protagonist sees the bouquet and discovers the beauty of life ↓
Came to the hospital to visit the mother, the mother out of compassion to the patients a few hundred dollars ↓
The doctor informed the brothers that their mother was in a bad condition
The brothers quarreled in the stairwell ↓
The mother expressed her desire to give up healing.↓
"The Long Parting" begins with a family interior scene ↓
The camera then focuses on people, and the father persuades the patient to continue to heal and express his concern for the patient.↓
The scene switches to my sister's daily routine, cleaning the barber shop, and putting a bouquet of flowers in the store ↓
The camera turns to the younger sister going to the hospital to get the father's examination report, and the doctor says that the condition has deteriorated ↓
After that, I had an argument with my sister in the hallway.↓
Riding an electric car home to see my father, I found that my father was missing, and I rode an electric car to find ↓
The father expressed his desire to give up healing↓
Although the specific details will be different, it can be seen that the general narrative direction is similar.
However, many people believe that in reality, a very large number of cancer families react similarly to such a situation. Thousands of patients in the hospital, every day to stage these repetitive stories ↓
But the blogger also mentioned that the bridge section in "Paper Boat Father" where the cancer father gave the patient a few hundred dollars out of compassion was written in the script, but it was not filmed, but appeared in "The Long Farewell".↓
Coincidences come together to make people feel that they are deliberate.
In fact, friends who have watched the original film will find that there is indeed a vague similarity in the style and rhythm of the two films.
But this kind of rights protection is really difficult, because the plot direction and lines are indeed very common in various film and television dramas and life.
After that, Bao Bell responded, saying that these plots are the screenwriter's personal experience, and posted the discussion process ↓
As for the outcome, there is no third-party accurate conclusion, and Tachibana squats a follow-up.
However, the variety show "Director Please Advise" has indeed fallen into the plagiarism storm more than once.
Wang Yichun's "The Sound of Music" was suspected of plagiarizing "Aleeti, the Little Man Who Borrowed Things".
Let's take a look at the story setting of the two films.
"The Sound of Music" anthropomorphizes cockroaches, and the protagonist's family of three is actually the "cockroach house", they live in the darkest and wetest places, and they coexist with humans but are invisible.
Outside there are often cockroach corpses that have been poisoned by drugs ↓
And Dad, as the head of the family, often needs to go to the human world to get some daily necessities to come back ↓
And the story setting in "The Little Man Arieti Who Borrowed Things", the protagonist's family of three is the "little man" family,
They live under the floor of the villa and live a life that is not noticed by humans.
The human world outside is very dangerous for them ↓
When you encounter the daily necessities you need, you will sneak into the kitchen in the middle of the night to borrow them↓
These two story settings, one is a cockroach, the other is a villain, although it is not exactly copied, but this idea is understood by many people as a melting stem.
Look at their similarities in detail.
The father in "The Sound of Music" brought his mother's favorite brown sugar, and the family was very happy↓
In "Arieti, the Little Man Who Borrowed Things", my mother's favorite is sugar cube, and I have always wanted my father to bring it back ↓
Look at their composition.
Scene of a family of three eating ↓
The overhead angle that occurs frequently ↓
Some people also say that one is a live-action image, one is an animation, one is a depressed wind, and the other is a healing wind.
These two are completely different, how can it be considered copied?
However, the settings of "borrowing things" and "symbiosis with humans" are similar, and the picture space and details are similar, which is inevitable to cause controversy, right?
The host asked her if the script was original ↓
Wang Yichun said that it was all inspiration from himself↓
There is also the previous director Wu Zhongtian, which is relatively good in this variety show.
He's even more outrageous.
His short film For Sale is suspected of plagiarizing Hitchcock's Best House.
The storyline of Wu Zhongtian's short film is set like this:
The protagonist, the old man, wants to sell the house, but his price is much higher than the market price, resulting in the house not being sold for many years.
Until one day a man was willing to buy a house above the market price, but the old man gave him a cup of poisonous water.
It turned out that all this was the old man's plan to avenge his son↓
In Hitchcock's "The Best House" segment, the protagonist's mother's line is like this ↓
The mother sold the house at a high price in order to lure the murderer into the bait.
Obviously, the story lines are not very similar, this is exactly the same!
Even this shot is like a copy of ↓
The producers present at the time, Wang Jing and Fang Li, all saw the clues.
Wang Jing bluntly said that this film is very similar to Hitchcock's style ↓
Fang Li also raised questions ↓
Wu Zhongtian insisted that it was his original ↓
Fang Li continued to give the steps tactfully ↓
Mr. Wu later apologized but did not admit to plagiarism, saying his family had told him the story.
So did the family tell him that the protagonist of the story also sat in a rocking chair?
After watching this variety show for so many periods, you can also understand why bad movies are emerging in an endless stream.
Plagiarism and melting stems make a lot of money, and they also bring their own fans to wash white.
In short, this show is,
People who want to enjoy the movie don't watch it,
And it doesn't really want you to enjoy the movie.
Last sentence
I feel that some directors are not as good as Bi Zhifei...
