You have to wear off these layers of dark shells to see a ray of light blooming from life.
If you polish the heavy and lighter, you are writing poetry with your own life.
Wong Kar-wai has been trying to clarify a truth: in addition to being able to live, life can also be used to write poetry.
Not only did he think so, but he also practiced it.
People who are flooded by life can only hold their heads and go next to each other, like a survival madman, and do their best to expose their nostrils from the water, breathing greedily, for fear that the next wave will be knocked down and will be over the top of their heads.
And those who write poetry with life have their hearts flooded life.
Living in their hands becomes a transparent curtain they project themselves to reflect every person and every story they have loved.
Life is like a theater, and everyone is the actors inside.
Everyone will take the stage and the scenes will be intertwined. This is the encounter.
The road intersects, and the heart and mind are connected.
People step on the road and walk towards each other's hearts.
After living there for a long time, it is a confidant, and after living for a short time, it is a passerby.
I have lived in one heart, and many other hearts. I have had a person in my heart, and then I have moved in with a new person. All the people coming and going have left, and my heart has become empty.
At this moment, it will become a homeless person.
Where to go, to those who have lived in their hearts, to those who have lived in their hearts.
Never stayed in a heart, nor had anyone stayed in my heart.
If you have only lived in the win or lose and the fight, then you will be the heart of Ma San.
Such a heart is actually uninhabitable because it is pitch black, cold and cruel.
The heart of returning to others is where poetry arises.
If you can't write Li Shangyin's poems, you are not a poet.
There are countless poets in the world who burn when they want to.
Leave no words or traces.
They live, they love, they do not express their desires, because they have no melancholy to be appreciated.
Those who have thoroughly polished their lives will not be melancholy.
Wong Kar-wai has commented on his movies: One of my favorite shots is: I have you in my heart.That's what I wrote about. When I was watching this movie, this shot was also my favorite.
So I sent it out.
Wong Kar-wai is a relatively unique person in the Chinese film industry.
His movies will grind the heavy things in life very thoroughly and then present them to people.
Others only saw the blurry and hazy classic lines he took out, as well as many beautiful scenes, and thought he was a very light director.
In fact, he is a person who makes heavy things lighter, so every film he has a long shooting cycle because he has been grinding his life like a lens.
Always grind the heavy and rough parts into transparent and turn them into movies.
After watching Wong Kar-wai's "The Grandmaster", then watching Donnie Yen's "Ip Man" series, you can always taste something different!
Ip Man was a disciple of Chen Huashun and Liang Bi, and established a sect for the founding of the Wing Chun system.
Among his disciples is Bruce Lee, a well-known generation of kung fu superstar.
Ip Man's evaluation is that he respects the development of Wing Chun with lofty martial ethics, and is able to be a master of his generation and ultimately promotes Chinese martial arts.
Art comes from life and is higher than life. Of course, a master of this generation must be interpreted with passion to reproduce the glory of the past. There will always be no artistic expressions about Ip Man. Apart from TV series, the most famous ones belong to Ye Weixin's "Ip Man" series and Wong Kar-wai's "Grand Master". Both have their own advantages. If the hero is judged by box office, the former will instantly defeat the latter. If we judge by reputation, the latter's status is high. This contrast is very interesting. After watching the last "Ip Man 4", people can't help but wonder why this situation occurs!
On December 20, 2019, "Ip Man 4: The Final Chapter" was officially released. This series finally ushered in the Final chapter, drawing a successful conclusion for a generation of masters. From "Ip Man 1" to "Ip Man 4", it was really a decade of life and death. From life to death, the four-part plots have fully demonstrated the brilliant and brilliant skills. Director Ye Weixin also won the Best Director nomination at the Hong Kong Film Awards in the next year for his first three works.
The four-part plot also gained a lot, with all box offices exceeding 100 million. If nothing unexpected happens, this movie may break the 1 billion mark. It has to be said that the market still likes this type of kung fu theme movie, especially the conversion of well-known IPs.
"Ip Man 1" was released in 2008 and had a total box office of over 100 million yuan.
"Ip Man 2: The Legend of the Grandmaster" was released in 10 years and has a box office of 2.3 billion yuan.
"Ip Man 3" was released in 2016 and won a box office of 7.7 billion!
"Ip Man 4: The Finale" was released in 2019 and eventually won the box office of 118.1 billion yuan in the series!
Ye Weixin's Ip Man has always been working with Donnie Yen. The two are old acquaintances. The latter is almost becoming Ye Weixin's official kung fu star. From "Dragon and Tiger Gate" to the perfect cooperation of the trilogy of "Shapo Wolf", it has also brought Hong Kong kung fu films to a new level. Some media commented on Ye Weixin: The emergence of "Dragon and Tiger Gate" officially marks the leading figure of Ye Weixin's Hong Kong kung fu films, even police and gangster films, and marginal commercial art films.
Ye Weixin's proposal is very clear, that is, he wants to make a Hong Kong kung fu movie. Even without the character Ip Man, he can still show the world of kung fu through other things. Ip Man is a good show, so the movie is called "Ip Man".
Some media commented on Wong Kar-wai's movies like this: Wong Kar-wai's movies are very symbolic. He regards martial arts, Ah Fei, and the killers' world as the metaphorical basis for turbulent, accidental and indifferent urban life, supporting the internal anxiety of modern people and the coded and patterned external survival.
The second is his unique view of time that he reveals in his narrative. His current progress is always in a nostalgic feeling, so his films have a strong nihilism, which is very lonely and helpless to express the inner world of human beings.
Wong Kar-wai's "The Grandmaster" was released in mainland China on January 8, 2013, and the 3D version was released in mainland China on January 8, 2015.
However, the reputation and box office of this movie are not matched. It has a Douban score of 80 points, but the box office of the movie, including the later 3D re-screening version, only won a total of 400 million box office.
This movie has been planned for 13 years and has been filmed for another 3 years. It is still filmed without scripts and the shooting speed is extremely slow.
It is said that when he enters the set every day, Wong Kar-wai only brings one piece of paper with more than 20 lines of words on the paper. At most, he can shoot about two lines of words in a day, and the final cost is still overspending to 100 million, so the movie does not make much money, which is much worse than the Ip Man series.
A film critic said: An actor usually schedules for a movie for half a year at most.For Wong Kar-wai, there must be indefinite preparations.Most of the actors he finds are acquaintances and understands his temper.It's overdue, and you're embarrassed to increase your salary.
Fortunately, Wong Kar-wai did not trap the actors, so within three years of filming this movie, Tony Leung wrote "The Great Magician" and "The Wind Listener", while Jang Zhen filmed "The King's Feast".
What Wong Kar-wai wanted to present is not Ip Man's Kung Fu, but a complete martial arts world. In this world, if you never forget it, there will be a resounding response. This martial arts world is not only Ip Man's martial arts world, but also Gong Er and Yishitian martial arts world, so this movie is called "The Grandmaster".
