Many viewers have noticed that in recent years, China's theme films have formed a unique directing style, in which the trilogy series "Me and Me", which is a representative work, is very popular, and the "combined film" directed by several directors is very popular, which seems to be a panacea for ensuring the box office of theme films in the National Day file. But "My Father and I" was warmly swallowed at the box office of this year's National Day file. Is it because the audience has lost interest in "platter movies"?
As the name implies, it is a unit drama or highlight film created by many directors, and a complete film is composed of several short films shot by each director. Each short film is an independent short story, involving many masters, and often there is not much logical relationship between the short films.
This kind of film started before the series "Me and Me", but most of the first mixed films are suitable for emotional films, such as Beijing Love Story, Petty, etc. As a mixed film, it has completed the cooperation of many directors and the gathering of many stars and big coffees, and even each story includes audiences of all ages. Therefore, the first mixed film will have a strong box office appeal, large scale and strong effect.
With the integration of the platter film and the main melody film, this form has been gradually known to the public. Moreover, the emergence of the trilogy seems to be in response to the sentence in ancient Chinese, "One effort, then decline, and three exhaustion." This seems to be the case with the "Me and Me" series box office. The box office is shrinking so that the current splash is gradually getting smaller. This is the aesthetic fatigue of the audience who watch the main theme movies every year.
In order to attract the audience's interest, a platter movie should explore deeper meaning. The movie itself is sometimes limited, and it is not easy to tell a story in a short time. The narrative shooting of a long movie is very difficult. However, a platter movie needs to tell several stories in the length of an ordinary movie, which is doomed to have few memory points to be remembered in this kind of movie, and it is also doomed to have no in-depth thinking on the deductive interpretation of characters and characters.
Therefore, it is impossible to make the story clear and clear; Or if you can't portray the characters delicately, the movie is doomed to not bring surprises to the audience. Without surprises, it is easy for you to know what the movie is going to do at a glance, and it is too tired for the audience. The audience is too tired, which means that they don't have any expectations and love for the film works. Therefore, the patchwork film obtained in this way has no audience, and they won't like such film works without deep meaning.
In order to regain the audience's interest, the final choice is to make continuous progress and dig deep. Now, if we simply consume the fame and audience relationship left by the previous patchwork movies, this type of film works will not have a better future and development.
