In 2011, Zhang Yimou's "Jinling Thirteen Chao" was released on fire, which not only made Ni Ni popular, but also made the British actor Christian, who played the missionary, popular. Bell entered the field of vision of the Chinese audience. Many viewers who have not paid attention to Bell beforehand, through this film, are overwhelmed by the acting skills of this Hollywood first-line actor, and the $20 million salary is indeed extraordinary.
Stills from "Jinling Thirteen Chao"
Deep and resolute eyes, carefully carved hairstyles and eyebrow angles, 183cm of mighty height, slightly hoarse magnetic voice, this is the first impression of Bell, compared to the smaller plum with its own fascinating attributes, sometimes talking elegant, sometimes tension contented image also has a clear difference. Bell's temperament makes people feel that even if he plays a jerk, he also has the temperament of the king of the lepers, and playing a decent character is even more introductory.
Tough guys, small citizens, but elite, Bell's role is diverse enough, but not greasy, but there is enough convincing professionalism.
The emaciated Bell in The Mechanic contrasts to his normal body type
In order to play the role of "Mechanic" who lost weight due to insomnia, he lost 57 pounds and did not stop exercising until the director said that it would be life-threatening to lose any more.
The burly Bale in Nolan's blockbuster "Batman Prequel"
The next "Batman Prequel", which is about to become the first superhero movie to step into the "$1 billion club", in order to meet the inverted triangle image of Europeans and Americans in the comics, Bell quickly gained more than 60 pounds.
Bell in "American Hoax"
Later, when filming "American Deception", he played a "big fat man" deception master Owen, than Aamir Khan in "Wrestling It! The fat figure in "Daddy" is also two circles larger, and the change is staggering!
A professional actor regards acting as his life, which has a professional ethics gap of 108,000 miles with the likes of Fan Someone, who can easily earn 60 million yuan in 4 days.
Bell's classic films are many, and today I take a science fiction film with the theme of human nature discussion under the overhead world - "The End of Tearing" to start today's good film sharing.
Torn doomsday stills
As a science fiction film, the torn doom belongs to the standard soft science fiction film, which is not based on some basic scientific theories, but uses some future settings that ordinary people can naturally accept as the background of the story.
Dark, cold wasteland dark tone
The science fiction films we are familiar with mostly take the social form of disaster or the end as the starting point, and this film belongs to the latter, depicting the bad mutation of an overhead society after the great destruction caused by World War III, which can be said to be a typical wasteland movie.
Brainwashed and injected into the ignorant populace of Bosian
The film fictionalizes a future country called Libya, where the ruling class arbitrarily believes that feelings are the culprits of a series of human diseases such as hatred, anger, and war, and that by injecting a reagent called Bosian for a long time, the production of emotions can be suppressed and blocked, so the whole country is in an atmosphere without any emotional bondage.
From this level, this seemingly "peach blossom source", a closed environment with no desire, no desire, no sorrow and no joy on the surface, also belongs to the category of utopian films to a certain extent.
In order to detect and kill all kinds of emotional criminals in time, the organization of Jehovah's priest came into being, and Bell played Byston is the most senior warrior among them, a person with a super sixth sense, and all the signs of emotion around him cannot escape his intuition.
Kill Peston in all directions
Peston in the play can be described as a lonely and defeat-like existence, the appearance is full, with a gun technique that claims to increase attack power by 120% and reduce the probability of damage by 60%, so that the blessing of super skills that have both attack and defense is almost undefeated.
But the accident like a routine still happened, that morning he was supposed to inject the inhibitor, but he actually broke the drug by mistake. Seemingly careless behavior may be a kind of story orientation in the subconscious.
Later, when he went to the supply station to get the medicine without success, when asked by his partner to get the medicine so quickly, he mistakenly told a lie of "because I came early enough".
Unable to look directly into Mary's eyes in the mirror
Without the blockage of the potion, in the process of carrying out the mission, Peston met Mary with sexy eyes, confined for many years, even when his wife was executed for emotional crimes, his heart was not shaken, and at the moment when he looked directly at Mary's beautiful eyes, there was actually some throbbing and panic. At this moment, even if the inhibitor has been injected, it is believed that it will lose its original effectiveness.
It is love at first sight, which we can't judge, but at least, it is a wonderful feeling that has not been felt in many years, and it has become the fuse of Peston's transformation.
The emotionally stimulated inner struggle finally lifted the clouds
Before there was an unconscious smashing potion, followed by an emotional prisoner who fascinated him. From unintentional to subjective rejection potions, Peston is decided to feel the taste of emotion!
Listening to Beethoven's music for the first time in the secret place of emotional prisoners was shocked to tears
Emotions are germinating, and as an executioner, he will naturally continue to carry out his mission, and naturally there will be many troubles, humanity is recovering, why continue to slaughter!
Whether to choose to be an ordinary person or continue to walk the dead, he slowly emerged the answer in his heart.
The murderous emotional prisoner no longer rushes to the first place with full energy; the blood of the emotional prisoner killed by the partner will stain his hands, which will make him feel sick and convulsive...
He had previously been uncompromising about emotional guilt, and after that, he would stop the killing for various reasons.
Can't bear to abandon the puppy, and finally lead to conflict
The real resistance begins with rescuing a cute puppy.
The puppy raised by the emotional prisoner, when he was about to be slaughtered, looked at the weak, innocent, poor puppy, the pity came out of nowhere, the panic and confusion slowly dissipated, and when the soldier insisted on checking the trunk, the advice was fruitless, And Peston finally took the shot, only this time he killed the Jehovah soldiers on the same front before, using his usual gun skills, which also unveiled the prologue to the next greater conflict!
Schwarzenegger, played by Schwarzenegger in Total Remembrance, is undergoing a memory transplant
In Schwarzenegger's "Total Memory", there is a similar situation setting, the Martian Quaid is a fierce spy, in an operation was mistakenly transplanted the memory of the earthlings, and even has compassion, love, sense of justice and other positive emotions, and when the rush surfaces, he resolutely chooses to cherish the present, rather than the evil past "himself".
Compared with this film, once Bell feels the real emotion, even if he has a choice, he will never go back to the past.
On the surface, it continues to succumb to the snake, but in fact everything has been planned
Think back to the beautiful eyes of sexy Mary, the shock of the forbidden Beethoven symphony, and the cute puppy he saved... He decided to liberate the emotional shackles of all people and completely change the status quo of society! Something had to be done, and only he could do it, and he had an unshirkable responsibility!
In fact, in the process of Peiston's transformation from an insensitive murderer to a real so-called "rebel", it is not difficult for us to find that it is precisely because of the clear distinction between love and hate that people can be called complete people, otherwise what is the difference with the zombies in the American drama "The Walking Dead"?
Stills from "Don't Let Me Go"
Thinking of the Japanese drama "Don't Let Me Go" starring Haruka Ayase, the first batch of replicants rebelled against fate and guided the dissatisfaction of the authorities, so the replicants after the second generation were directly obliterated by emotions, and without emotion, they would only rebel and be willing to be fish.
Stills from "The Sword Heart of the Rangers"
Then to The anime "Ronin Kenshin" by Nobuhiro Tsuki, before the Ayamura Kenshin was enlightened, it was also a killing machine of the government, a tool used by politicians to erase dissidents and help them rise to the rank of knight.
All transformations require opportunities, Andeton was only a pawn of the government before the metamorphosis, a loyal lackey who maintained a decadent society without any rebellious spirit and without complaint, and Mary, the emotional prisoner, was the "Bole" who guided and helped Peston release his nature.
In the dialogue Mary tells Bell the true meaning of being human
During mary's first interrogation, Peston was asked why he lived? While Peston gives such a grandiose reason for defending the continuation of the Great Society, Mary says that he is only living for the sake of survival, just a lingering cycle of life, and that true survival should have the general emotion of how to breathe, no feeling, love, anger, sad breathing, just a mechanically swinging clock.
A living person obviously has the right to feel all the good and the ugly, and to love and dislike things, and to be forcibly erased of this innate instinct is itself a cruelty.
In Peston's conversation with the rebel leader, the other side also said:
"There is a category of people who have strong and abundant feelings, like I am like you, but we choose to give up our emotions and suppress our hearts, which is a sacrifice for a great victory!" 」 Movie dialogue
In other words, more ordinary people are still sinking, still living a conformist, mechanically numb life. Our mission is to liberate and save their destiny.
The result of the negotiations was the completion of the plan to assassinate the priest
Preston was determined that the culprit who dominated all this, the priest who only knew how to stand behind the screen and instill extreme ideas, would be solved by his own hands.
Gorgeous Spike Priest Guard
In the shadow of a sword and light, Peston killed everything in a second. The priest begged for his life, and actually said to Peston, "I am a living person, I have breath, I have feelings, can you really get your hands on it", And Peston was naturally unmoved, pulled the trigger, and ended everything.
"You have emotions, but you play with everyone, you play with everyone's emotions, you have no emotions than people without emotions." 」 The moment he started, Peston must have felt this way.
Maybe after watching the movie, everyone will have a question?
If human beings were born without emotions, would there really be eternal peace?
This question can be argued in reverse, citing a famous paradox here:
What I am saying now is a lie, is what I am saying true or false? paradox
You can't say it, and everyone doesn't know the exact answer. Extending to the above question, if human beings are born without emotion, then are human beings still human beings? If the conditions are not true, how can we say that the results are true!
Everything in the world has its own rules of survival, and everyone prepares everything, shoots at the best time, and finally decides whether to win or lose in the survival of the fittest. Taking a step back, even if you are still human, can human civilization without emotion be reproduced and passed on? Self-degradation and extinction are inevitable, and war is naturally meaningless!
There are no absolutes between good and evil, there are seven deadly sins, and there are various character defects, but you can't deny that if everything in this society is arranged, with superficial perfection, but completely inhuman selfishness and intrigue, the pace of progress may be slowed down!
Ease cannot be long-lasting, but fate is not permanent. Qianlong knew that He Yan was a traitor, but why didn't he get rid of him during his ascension to the throne, because he knew that everything was about a balance, whether it was Ji Xiaolan and He Yan or Liu Luo and He Yan, one side was dominant, there was no fighting, and it was not conducive to the stability of the entire court.
Before Libya in the film is baptized, the kind of peace and tranquility that does not release nature and the surface is actually a kind of social regression.
Peston smiled triumphantly
Therefore, human beings have emotions and are not evil diseases, all the right and wrong, good and evil, as long as we recognize it, prevent microaggressions, and be ready to accept challenges at any time, why not enjoy the excitement of life? Peston finally liberated Libya and liberated himself, and did you decide to liberate yourself?
