The much-anticipated TV series "Flowers" finally started, but I didn't expect that word-of-mouth and popularity were diametrically opposed, and there were bad reviews and complaints on the Internet.
The most criticized is that the style is too pompous and greasy, and the editing is chaotic and abrupt, which looks like a combination of advertising and PPT.
Seeing this, I believe that the first name that comes to many people's minds must be Guo Jingming. The "Little Times" series of movies he shot back then were criticized for being empty and pretentious.
There is no harm if there is no comparison, after watching the suspension and condescension of "Flowers", some viewers feel that the photographic composition is completely the feeling of "Little Times", Wong Kar-wai is not as good as Guo Jingming, and threatens to give "Little Times" a high score again.
Over the years, the label of hypocrisy and pompousness has been engraved on Guo Jingming, no matter how hard he tries, he has always been the object of cynicism.
Unexpectedly, the situation changed overnight, although "Flowers" has only released four episodes so far, but the audience feels the most in addition to the hard and convex head, ungrounded is magnificent, drunk and golden, giving people a feeling of chatter, and the imaginary fireworks are inseparable.
Wong Kar-wai, a native of Shanghai who grew up in Hong Kong, has little knowledge of the city's past. What he photographed was just the Shanghai he imagined, the Shanghai he longed for in his heart, and it was just a continuation of the plot of "In the Mood for Love".
It's just that Hu Ge is not Tony Leung, Ma Yili is not Maggie Cheung, only beautiful lenses and exquisite pictures are presented with boring sounds and horses, and superficial lights, which are destined to fail to truly interpret the background color of "Flowers", showing those real Shanghai Beach style pictures and fireworks in the alleys.
Speaking of which, it is impossible not to sigh, Wong Kar-wai is a well-known director, from "Chongqing Forest", "The True Story of A Fei" to "Springtime" and "In the Mood for Love", he has brought a series of word-of-mouth masterpieces to the audience, and now it has become a background board to set off others.
A sigh and thought-provoking at the same time, the key to director Wong Kar-wai's water-testing TV series this time is that he did not really follow the local customs.
To put it bluntly, it is not to understand the background and culture in the book, and it does not grasp the real Shanghai in the 90s, but to use the template of the past success, which is destined to be flashy and unrealistic.
