"Three Missing One" exposed the fixed poster The love and hate entanglement of the male and female protagonists led to suspense
The story of the movie "Three Missing One" takes place in Shanghai, a city full of various emotional charms. Tom from the United States has been trapped in endless grief since the unfortunate death of his wife Ling, and the huge grief is like an inescapable vortex, trapping him between memory and reality. All the changes followed by the appearance of Showgirl Bobo, who has a very similar appearance to Ling, but a completely different interior, which on the one hand makes Tom rekindle the hope of life, on the other hand, it also intensifies his entanglement and sadness.
And this entanglement and melancholy is fully displayed in the poster of "Three Missing One". In the poster, the male protagonist Tom's left and right are two women with completely different temperaments but similar appearances, and the use of a large area of blue pulls the audience's heart into the depths of the whirlpool, as if it is also wrapped up in this entanglement, and the tragedy of the story is about to come out. What really happened between the three of them? What is missing? This is what the film tries to show to the audience, and it is also the answer that the director is trying to find.
Strength starring partner new team Chemistry ignites word of mouth
Director Fabien Gaillard lives in Shanghai and holds a master's degree in directing from the eight major film departments in Paris, France. His first self-directed and self-written film, Lao Wai, won the Best Cinematography Award at the 2011 Asian Film Festival in Dallas, USA, and was screened at the 2012 Shanghai International Film Festival and the Beijing International Film Festival. Having lived in China for more than 12 years, his film stories are inspired by the Chinese cities he knows and the people who live here, whether locals, foreigners or foreigners.
Female no. 1 Tan Zhuo has rich acting experience, and was nominated for the Best Actress Award at the 62nd Cannes Film Festival with her debut film "Spring Breeze Drunken Night", the independent film "Little Lotus" that starred and produced in 2012 was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival, and the "Pursuer" in 2016 is a genre film with good reputation at the box office. In the past two years, he has also shined on the drama stage, and played on the same stage with Hu Ge and Xu Qing in the drama "Like a Dream" directed by Lai Shengchuan. This time starring in the movie "Three Missing One", one person playing two roles with very different personalities is expected.
Male number one James Alofs (James Alofs) collaborated with director Guan Hu on the TV series "Blood Of Life and Death" in 2014, and his acting skills were honed. In 2016, "World Youth Talk" let more viewers know this handsome and funny Canadian type man. The acting skills of the two leading actors are quite expected, and in order to create the romantic and melancholy temperament of the film, the director specially invited the famous French musician Dream Koala (Dream Koala) to produce.
The producer Mo Fei Film is composed of a professional film team returning from studying in France, with a solid international creative team, which creates superior conditions for the post-production of the film, and undoubtedly escorts the quality of the film. Post-80s beauty producer Gong Jinjian has been living in France for many years, and in 2012, he established Mo Fei Film. The film's recording director Li Danfeng is currently the audio director of Mo Fei Pictures, who has served as the recording director of "Daytime Fireworks" and "Fenyang Boy Jia Zhangke", and the newly co-produced animated feature film "Wonderful" became the only Chinese animated feature film to be selected for the main competition in Berlin.
The film's rich meaning resonates with new elements under the eternal theme
For a good movie, what can impress the audience is not gorgeous action or cool special effects, and what can directly hit people's hearts must be some kind of emotional core, only in this way can it resonate with the audience. In the context of the era of globalization and modernization, the story of foreign sons-in-law has long ceased to be a legend, and transnational marriages have become more and more common in recent years. "Foreign director" Goofy is also hoping to use this film to have a dialogue with audiences who are eager to understand the deep exchange of transnational marriages. Admittedly, this is a film about exploring cultural differences across cultures, but before exploring differences, perhaps we should first let go of our inherent stereotypes and understand the film from the common point of human nature and emotion. Just as the scene after the tragedy, Tom and his mother-in-law Mrs. Peng continue to live under the same roof, touching the heartstrings. They supported and comforted each other, and this intimate emotional bond was like every ordinary mother and son.
Of course, for more audiences, this is still an emotional film with flaws. For this feeling of regret, director Fabien Gaillard introduced: "How should we face a face that is almost the same as the one we lost?" Should I let her go without regret? I don't think so. Should I frantically approach and grab her? I don't think that should be the case either. So why? I believe it's just because the flaw itself drives us to respond, and everyone reacts so differently to the flaw, which is the unpredictability of emotion. ”
