After the movie was over, the audience was quiet for a long time.
That kind of suffocating depression is like being strangled by life, like being tied back and thrown into the dark and silent sea, unable to even call for help.
Everyone finally understands the meaning of the opening sentence.
I walked through thousands of worlds, and finally left a wasteland in my heart.
Jiang Ye's inner world has long been deadly silent. Just like the wasteland where he is at the beginning of the film, there is no life, no water, desolate and silent, lonely as if he is the only one left in the world.
So in the end, even if he has been to so many places, saved so many victims affected by the war, made many friends, and finally settled in the bustling city.
But he is always alone, and all the excitement in this world has nothing to do with him. He is like a dry spring, losing his vitality little by little.
What people with depression never lose is not happiness, but vitality.
Cen Feng has almost no hysterical scenes in the play. He has always been calm. No one can snoop on his inner wailing. He didn't even ask for help from the outside world, and walked toward death peacefully.
It wasn't until the lights in the venue came on that the heavy applause gradually sounded.
Xu Jixing sat motionless in his position.
Tears have long since dried up.
Only a dull heartache is left.
During the movie, Cen Feng kept holding her hand. His palm was big and warm, he wrapped her little hand in his palm, and the temperature spread from his fingertips all the way to his heart, and she didn't completely collapse.
No one is more familiar with Cen Feng's gentle smile in the movie.
She had seen him smile like that with her own eyes.
Obviously, he was already full of holes in his heart, yet he was smiling so softly that he couldn't see any strangeness.
She seemed to have experienced his death again, with cold hands and feet.
After the light was on, Cen Feng saw that her face was a little pale, the tears on her face were dry, her eyes were suffering from collapse, but the corners of her lips were pressed tightly, as if trying to restrain something.
The audience behind began to get up and walk forward to meet the lead actor and director. The ID group was a little bit stunned, and they hadn't reacted to the plot.
Cen Feng took Xu Jixing's hand and stood up suddenly.
He whispered: "Let's go."
Xu Zhixing was stunned, and was led away by him.
Teng Wen called him, Cen Feng didn't look back, only waved back, and quickly disappeared from the exit.
It was quiet outside the theater. Today, the "Wasteland" crew has booked the show to prevent the film from leaking in advance. Security has also been done very well. Unrelated personnel have been cleared long ago.
Cen Feng walked to the corner and stopped.
Xu Zhixing also stopped like a puppet.
He turned around, pulled her into his arms, and hugged her tightly, but his voice was gentle: "Don't be afraid, I am here."
She didn't speak, stretched out her hand to embrace his waist and buried it in his heart.
Hearing his steady heartbeat, tears flowed silently.
Cen Feng's death has always been a thorn in her heart, no matter how long it has passed, no matter how the trajectory changes, she still can't let go.
It is more unacceptable to die peacefully than to be hysterical.
Because there is no sign.
It wasn't until after watching the movie just now that she suddenly realized one thing. It is less than half a year since the last life of Cen Feng committed suicide.
At the end of spring next year, when the cherry blossoms die.
Although the trajectory has changed, time is moving forward as always, and it will inevitably lead to the most desperate day. Can she change everything, including life and death
just in case…
What if...
What if he is unavoidable, will he die on that day
Thinking of this possibility, she almost couldn't breathe.
Cen Feng felt the little girl in his arms trembling, the kind of fearful trembling, even her teeth were shaking. He opened her lightly, cupped her face in both hands, and forced her to raise her head.
"Look at me." His palms were warm, his movements were gentle, but his tone couldn't hold his beak, "Xu Jiexing, look at me."
She clenched her teeth and looked up at him with tears in her eyes.
He held her hand and pressed it to the position of his heart, with a low and slow voice: "I'm still alive, alive well. With you in this world one day, I will never leave before you."
Xu Zhixing's tears almost poured out.
She had never cried so hoarsely in front of him, as if she would cry the sky down all those countless late nights. No one understood her collapse and helplessness at the time, and even now, she couldn't confide to anyone.
But at this moment, feeling his heartbeat and hearing his promise, the secrets and emotions concealed in my heart seemed to be torn apart and could no longer be hidden, and ran out with her tears.
"I'm so scared, brother, I'm so scared."
She said "I'm so scared" many times.
The cry was heartbreaking, "I don't know what to do, I can't do anything, I can't do anything but sad..."
His fingertips trembled, and he lowered his head to kiss the tears on her face over and over again.
The tears on his lips were bitter.
"It's all over. The things that make you sad will never happen again." He lowered his head and gently pressed his forehead to her, saying, "You can't do anything, you have done a lot. You made my life light again."
"You told me to smile more and do something to make yourself happy every day."
"You always buy milk tea for me, it's very sweet, just like you."
"The fruit candy you gave me, although I can't eat it, but I like it very much."
"Every birthday you will let me eat a cake to make a wish. My wish must have been heard by God, and now it has all been fulfilled."
"You helped me get rid of the bad guys. You are the most powerful kid in the world."
"And now, you gave me a home, which made me miss the world, and I can't bear to leave again."
He raised his head slightly and curled the corners of his mouth: "Look, you have done so much, isn't it awesome?"
She sucked her nose and laughed suddenly, crying and laughing: "Yes, I'm great."
He also laughed and pressed her into his arms again: "Well, my baby is the best. So don't be afraid, don't be sad, I will always be with you, eh?"
She buried her heart and nodded.
Now that he was over crying, his emotions and thoughts were slightly awake, and a slight strange flashed in his heart. What seemed to be wrong with what he said just now? But before he had time to think about it, there were footsteps behind him.
The ID group followed.
Everyone had a sad expression. They were so tortured by the movie just now. When they came over and saw the two people holding them, they didn’t make a fuss. They also comforted with an understanding: "Sister-in-law is still crying? Harm, it’s all Movie, fake! Don't be sad Sister-in-law Ha!"
Then they blew rainbow farts at the captain one after another: "The captain is really a fairy, this acting skill is incredible!"
"I am the first to refuse if I don't take the Oscar!"
"This movie will definitely explode! It's a work of art, captain, you're going to post it!"
"It's just a little gloomy, hey."
Everyone had a lot of itineraries. After watching the movie, they didn't stay much. They left after saying goodbye. Cen Feng was worried that Xu Dixing was alone. He refused media interviews and Teng Wen's invitation. After driving her home, he accompany her to dinner at home, played games for a while, and coaxed her to bed before leaving.
After the screening was over, online reviews of "The Waste Land" came out.
Of course, they are all professional film reviews that do not involve spoilers, and they are all the experience of watching the film by professionals in the circle. They are regarded as scoring the film in advance, and it is also regarded as a test result for the audience.
All major film critic circles and platforms are all well received:
—This is not only a movie, it can even be called a work of art. The director's control of the picture and light and shadow of the literary film has reached the point of perfection. Of course, the performance of the actors is indispensable. Cen Feng is a natural fit for the big show. The actor of the scene, his acting skills let me see the future of the new generation of actors.
—I have walked through thousands of worlds, and finally left a wasteland in my heart. I can only say that this sentence perfectly explains the story. This is actually not a story that makes people happy after reading it, but I don’t regret reading it.
-"The Waste Land"'s analysis of the inner world of depression patients is almost cruel. Nowadays, society has prejudice against depression patients, always thinking that they are disease-free and moaning, even lazy in the late stage of cancer. I hope that this movie will enable everyone to re-recognize depression and re-accept and understand this group.
-The movie reverses healing, and it can even be said to be depressive, but I think everyone should go to the cinema to experience this feeling. Because the depression and suffocation you feel is the feeling of a depressed patient every hour and every moment, and you only feel one-tenth of this feeling.
—Teng Wen is very good at shooting small-person tragedies. Jiang Ye is just a microcosm of this huge group. Cen Feng's proficient acting skills even gave me the illusion that he himself is a depression patient. Hope is just an illusion, I hope everything is well for him.
-"The Waste Land" is a rare high-quality masterpiece in terms of light and shadow composition and soundtrack. Although the storyline is indeed sad, its purpose as a literary film has been achieved. It can make everyone feel the experience and mood of the protagonist. The actor's acting skills are indispensable. I have never underestimated Cen Feng, but his performance has surprised me even more.
…
These film reviews were cut off by the marketing account. After uploading to Weibo, the operation of Chenxing Propaganda was naturally on the hot search again.
Such unanimous praise once again aroused the curiosity of the audience, and people are rebellious. The more you say how depressing this movie is, the more unbelief the audience is.
Isn't it just a movie, can still make me suffocate in the theater
After the screening, there are only three days left before the official release of "The Waste Land". Some theaters have already opened early ticket sales. The first show has a very good attendance rate. Except for the corners of the front row, almost all seats are full.
Two days before the release of "The Waste Land", it was another Friday at 7pm, and the second issue of "A Couple's Day" went live on time. The first phase of Love Day’s reverse is very good. It has already established a foothold in the Lianzong market, and the on-demand rate still maintains a new high.
At the end of the first issue, the content of the second issue was announced, and there were conflicts and quarrels between three couples.
Among them, the focus is on the footage of Xu Jiexing and Cen Feng. In the trailer of less than 30 seconds, she only saw her yelling loudly, "Brother, how can you do this!"
The first period is so sweet, and the second period is quarreling. Chenxing's editing is so unconventional, and the audience's curiosity is also full of hooks.
Although it is normal to know that there are conflicts between couples, everyone is still curious about what makes Xu Jiexing, a stubborn fan, so angry.
The title of the second issue is also very gimmick, and it says directly [Xu Jiexing Cenfeng quarrels, three couples resolve conflicts]
At the beginning of the feature film, the barrage is being brushed: [Chen Xing, please be kind, don’t quarrel, and reconcile! 】
After dinner, the three couples had their own business.
Tao Xi and her boyfriend put on sportswear and went for a run by the river, while Tang Jinxiu and her boyfriend went to a concert, while Xu Jiexing and Cen Feng sat on the floor at home and played games.
The first twenty minutes are still sweet.
Until the night passed, the lovers ushered in the next day's daily routine.
First Tao Xi and Little Wolfdog went to watch the show. Tao Xi, as a goddess of immortality, had a lot of fans of successful men. Many people came to take pictures with her in the background, but the little wolfdog got jealous.
Tao Xi was straightforward and said directly, "No matter how naive you are, you are all jealous." The little wolf dog got angry because of this "naive" sentence. The age difference is what netizens have been criticizing them for. Tao Xi is suspected of slapping her face.
The atmosphere between the two was suddenly tense.
Then there was Tang Jinxiu and her boyfriend. The two went to the rehearsal hall as usual. Tang Jinxiu accidentally knocked down the valuable cello in the hall. After being scolded by her boyfriend, the two began to quarrel.
The picture was very solemn at the moment.
The barrage is also hotly discussed, all discussing who is right and who is wrong, because each audience has different perspectives, and there will inevitably be quarrels on the barrage.
The guests inside are noisy, the audience outside is noisy, anyway, the heat of variety shows is so noisy.
Until the camera cuts to Chenxing.
The cp party immediately swiped the screen: [Chenxing, don’t quarrel, don’t quarrel, brother, sister! ! ! 】
All the audience held their breath, even if they knew the routine of the program group, they couldn't help but worry.
Xu Jiexing watched TV in the living room again, laughing with a bag of potato chips.
Sometimes there is the sound of piano, it is Cen Feng who is writing songs.
After a while, a voice-over appeared: [Have you quarreled? 】
Xu Jiexing looked back at the speaker, his tone was casual: "No."
Voiceover: "Impossible? How can a couple not quarrel?"
Xu Dixing: "We just don't quarrel, envy it, hehe."
The silence of the voiceover can be felt across the screen.
Barrage: [Painting style is suddenly wrong]
After a few seconds, the voice-over said: "You go to Cen Feng for a fight."
Xu Jiexing glared at him speechlessly, "Are you sick?"
Voiceover: "The audience likes to watch this."
Barrage: [We don’t like it! ! ! We like candy! ! ! What's your misunderstanding about our audience in the program group? ? ? 】
Xu Jiexing was silent for a while, put the potato chips on the coffee table, jumped off the sofa, and put on his sandals and slippers: "Okay!"
She walked all the way to the door of the piano room and knocked on the door.
The piano sound stopped. A few seconds later, Cen Feng walked over and opened the door, softly asking, "What's the matter?"
Xu Jiexing backed up two steps, made an angry expression, hands on hips, and yelled at him fiercely: "Brother, how can you do this?!"
Cen Feng: "..."
He paused, a helpless smile flashed across his face, and he asked cooperatively, "Which?"
Xu Jixing is super fierce: "How can you be so handsome!!!"
Cen Feng: "..."
Program group: "..."
Barrage:? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?
