Legendary Hollywood Director

In an apartment late at night.

Lyman lay on the bed, stretched out his body greatly, did not cover the quilt, and forced himself to sleep by closing his eyes.

But I don't know why, my head is messed up, and I can't sleep.

With a sigh, he pulled his trousers from the bed and put them on, then walked around the room naked and without shoes on.

Looking out through the window, the street lamps on the roadside were still working as usual.

After wandering around for a few laps and still not feeling sleepy, Lehman simply ran to the study and continued to finish the outline of his new script. In fact, he now has two plans in mind. The first is naturally a low-cost production. After all, the profit after profit sharing is only enough to support him to complete similar projects; the second is another way of financing and shooting. Europa Pictures In view of the good situation after the release of Buried Alive, and he also made a special trip to tell him things like that, Lehman thought about it and thought it was okay.

Spending all of his net worth on the production of a movie like he used to, that kind of extremely risky behavior, only once is enough, not to mention other things, his own future life also needs to use money. If you can live a good life, why do you force yourself to eat bran and pharynx? Lyman is not a masochist and doesn't want to repeat the bitter consequences.

He spread out the manuscript paper, picked up the pencil, and began to write the story of the second plan down the line.

Scene 5: Dormitory, close-up spotlight.

Character: The protagonist.

The young student took off the light bulb and used the high school physics he had learned to make a simple electrical prop. He wrapped the wire around a piece of metal and stuck it out the door through the gap.

Then, the school senior who wanted to pee and protest was hit by the electric current in that part of himself...

Yes, the film he's planning to make is a feature-length drama about a freshman named Rancher who fights against India's rotten education system.

Imperial University of Technology is a school with the highest comprehensive strength in India. The newly admitted Lancher is a different college student. He openly questioned the dean's teaching philosophy and used maverick to break the traditional educational concept of the college. In short, He is a thorn in the eyes of a teacher.

For example, life in the university is always staged in turn with study and examinations. Rancher, on the other hand, is doing well, always at the top, and has an unusual love and obsession with mechanical applications. His two roommates, Farhan and Raja. The former one actually didn’t want to major in industrial design. He wanted to become a field photographer, but his family’s incomprehension and persuasion led him to embark on this path; as for Laga, his family was very poor and his family was very poor. His family hoped that he could find a good job to supplement his family after graduation, so he also entered the college of industrial design.

During their time with Rancher, the two of them did a lot of things that went against the dogma of their previous life, until they both found out that if this continued, they would probably not graduate. There is a gap between people's mental talents. It just so happens that their good friend Lancher is a very good person. He doesn't spend a lot of time studying every day, but he always gets high scores in exams. Confused, they choose Cut off relations with Lancher...

Different from the single characters and scenes in Buried Alive, this time, Lyman wanted to shoot a big scene, a large space spanning an academy to serve as the background for the filming.

In terms of story design, there is not much new idea, but the perspective is put on the Indian teaching system.

Since the last time he watched the Monsoon Wedding Banquet, he has always felt that he wants to do something.

This story was chosen to focus on some social situations in India.

The education issue, the whole world is concerned.

Who doesn't want to let their children become talents through education?

Therefore, his new film is ready to shoot such a story.

A movie called Three idiots make trouble in Bollywood.

The name sounds a bit frustrating, but there is no way, and Lehman can't think of any more in line with the storyline. Let's go with the previous life.

Like the first self-produced film, in this Three Silly Trouble in Bollywood, Lehman also intends to refine some core elements of his previous works, and will innovate and adapt the story.

This is his work. Naturally, the value of the film will not be as beautifying the Indian education system as the previous work. For example, he faked his studies and successfully graduated, and he even got the space pen that symbolizes honor from the dean. This kind of design concept can't even happen in American schools, which have always been liberal and democratic, let alone in India.

Jumping out of the limitations of the region, Lehmann simply chose to interpret the story in his own way.

Therefore, in terms of the overall look and feel, although the tone of this movie is also joyful, it is more of a sadness.

The rigid educational dogma suppresses the nature of every student, forcing them to study hard, take exams, and be obedient, otherwise they will not graduate.

That little certificate is related to the yearning and helplessness of all students.

As for whether such a large-scale adaptation will fail, is it too risky? But then again, which movie was not a big gamble at the beginning of shooting?

The betting audience will accept it, the betting market will be optimistic, and the betting theater release will be smooth...

Before any film is shot, there is no way to really predict whether it will be successful or not, and whether it will have a good result. Even if the Indian director Rakuma Hirani from the previous life was asked to direct Three Silly Trouble in Bollywood, at this point in time, it is impossible to completely replicate everything in the previous life.

The design of the lighting, the use of the lens, the director's shooting concept, the connection of the characters, and even the editing, soundtrack, sound effects, etc. in the later stage, a slight change will produce a different final film.

There are never two identical leaves in the world.

What's more, the film he shot is aimed at the global market, and it does not rely solely on India to contribute to the box office.

Moreover, the nearly three-hour completed film of the original is really difficult for him to repeat. If nothing else, if he shoots it like this, the cinema will never provide any good screenings or more screens to show it.

In the businessman's world, profit is everything that measures value. A movie from someone else has been shown twice before you play it once. Even if the attendance rate is high, the theater chain will definitely choose the former movie first.

In addition, there are many hypocritical points in the original plot, and the plot is also a bit procrastinated. The male protagonist's straightforward lectures in the film can be completely deleted.

As for the creation of the villain, the dean is also a bit rigid. He has taught for so many years, and his cognition is definitely qualitative. He who abides by the education system will not be so easily persuaded. The line also dragged down the overall rhythm of the film, and Lehmann directly gave up this branch.

What he wants to talk about is the corruption and the nature of killing students under an Indian education system, rather than focusing on the ambiguous story of Rancher and the dean's awakening.

After clarifying the adaptation ideas, Lyman wrote the outline very quickly, and the shaping of each character began to emerge:

The dean who symbolizes the dogma of the old times, his face is always serious, and he stubbornly believes that only grades are the standard to measure the value of a student;

Lancher, who symbolizes the new ideas of education in the new era, is optimistic by nature and can always influence the people or things around him. Instead of taking the dean's achievement theory in his eyes, he encourages the surrounding roommates to try to stick to their ideals.

It is also this complete opposition that determines all the conflicts and plot rhythms of this film.

The series of things caused by the collision of ideas is the main line. As for the other branch lines used for embellishment, those that have nothing to do with the main line are all removed.

The way the original director used the interlude, the way of starting the plot from the agreement ten years ago, naturally cannot be used. The branch is gone, and the agreement is naturally a joke.

Lehman's thinking is very simple. He uses the most straightforward and straightforward narrative to describe the real life of Indian universities. Under that high-pressure state, the suppressed nature of each student is what he wants to tell through the film.

He never thought of mechanically copying movies, he is a director, he has his own ideas, and the stories he wants to tell will naturally be different.

Even if there is a successful precedent of the previous work, it cannot be copied completely. He has his own shooting philosophy.

Besides, copying is never a panacea. Just like the movies made by some directors are never edited according to their own wishes, there are too many changes in this world, and immutability is the most terrible thing.

For example, black politics is the most mainstream direction of Hollywood creation in the future, and black lives are expensive, and people like to promote it. Do you still think that you can still succeed in the big environment of the film, and that there are still many audiences who agree with it?

The answer is a question mark. The right time and place are suitable for people, and movies also pay attention to these. Different environments will shape different movies. Isn't homosexuality acceptable only after the new century became the mainstream sense? Who would have thought that these would become normal words in people's mouths?

Therefore, blind copying is not absolutely correct.

Moreover, if the movie is all copy and pasted, it will lose its most desirable charm. The wonderful feeling of being immersed in the world that the director has portrayed for the audience is what this light and shadow art needs most.

Artistic creation requires the irrigation of the creator's ideological spirit in order to truly take shape and enjoy the sweetness.

In this small study, supported by soft light, a man holds a pencil in his hand and shapes his views on Indian education, a story about an academy.
