Why is Stone crazy , and what do people say about Crazy Stone ?

This is a very classic black humor film, which can definitely be listed as an excellent comedy in China, the laughter is not abrupt, the storyline is interesting and reasonable, and the multiple characters have their own characteristics and complete characters.

The laughter is dense and not embarrassing, and the plot is coherent and not vulgar

One of the main reasons why many comedy movies are bad movies is that the movie sets the joke too vulgarly, trying to use vulgar stalks and low-level plots to attract attention and ignore the comedy itself. "Crazy Stone" is centered on a piece of jadeite, and the line of finding the real jade runs through the whole film. People of different statuses, with different purposes, "hunt down" jadeite.

From this movie, you can intuitively feel the kind of causal cycle, stealing jadeite in order to pick up girls, stealing jadeite when hired, and guarding jadeite in order to keep the factory. People who met together by chance because of different purposes produced a series of crazy actions, and under the line worn by the director, all the plots happened naturally. The story produced under the plot of a non-farce drama is the one that can really make people laugh.

Down-to-earth comedy is advanced

The story takes place in Chongqing, and the main characters in the film are also spoken in authentic dialects, which also increase the authenticity of the story and are closer to the characters. The film's camera is not set on the skyscrapers of the city, but more on the narrow hotels, steaming bathhouses, and cramped and deep sewer pipes, which very realistically restores the original urban state of Chongqing, a mountain city, and also reflects the characteristics of the characters in the film. The whole movie is very down-to-earth from the language to the shots.

There is a meaning behind comedy that is worth pondering

Everyone is scrambling to find the real jadeite, and the contrast between the persistence of the jadeite and the judgment of its authenticity is full of irony. Sometimes the value of something depends on where it is located. The judgment of the truth or falsehood of things also depends on how a person expects them in his heart.

The last Baotou put the piece of jade on his girlfriend's neck, he thought it was a fake jadeite, but he was very happy not to be entangled in the real one.

Crazy Stone became a classic, a truly high-class, meaningful comedy.

The black comedy "Crazy Stone" directed by Ning Hao is not only a dark horse at the box office in 06, but also a dark horse in the entire Chinese comedy film market. So far, it still maintains a high score on Douban, and audiences who like to watch movies know that most of the domestic movies on Douban don't even have a passing score. This is also why this film can still be among the ranks of excellent works after 13 years of release, and its excellence can also be seen from a long list of award-winning records.

"Crazy Stone" revolves around a piece of jadeite rough stone, and tells the story of the three forces of Baotou who want to protect the stone, Dao Ge's gang who want to steal the stone, and the developer and the International Avenue group invited by the developer to fight each other, and many ironic accidents that occur in the process. It uses the most down-to-earth way of telling, and the multi-perspective narrative is also handled very well, without clutter at all, and the most commendable thing is that the story logic is complete, except for Baotou, which has the most scenes, and the other characters are all distinctive.

A down-to-earth local comedy

The Chongqing dialect is used extensively in the film, and the scenes filmed are also the most common streets, and the actors are almost no appearance at all, whether it is the gang of local snake Dao brothers who are abducted and deceived every day, or the grass platform team security department that has been temporarily erected, even if it is a black-hearted developer, or even International Avenue, no one uses their appearance to conquer the audience, they all use acting skills. The lines are down-to-earth, the actors are down-to-earth, and the entire rustic scene in the film is also very down-to-earth.

The multi-line narrative is complex but not chaotic

The story uses a multi-line narrative to tell the story from the perspectives of Baotou, Dao Ge and the developer, and despite all the different perspectives, the story is not chaotic, which can be said to be very powerful in many domestic movies that can't even tell a story from one point of view.

The characters are distinct and each has its own persistence

Finally, let's talk about the characters, although everyone looks like a grizzled face and has no glamorous face, but we can still remember the different characters with distinctive characteristics in this less than two-hour movie. Baotou took over the task of protecting the stone from beginning to end as the center of the safety of the stone, and never had evil thoughts, and the international thief Mike took over the task of stealing the treasure, and he was very dedicated to completing the task at the expense of killing. The decent and ordinary but respectable, and the villain is not whitewashed, and there is no need for a pathetic prehistory, which is also commendable.

It won the box office of more than 20 million with an investment of more than 3 million that year, and after many years, "Crazy Stone" is still an excellent comedy worth watching, in this movie, we can also enjoy the wonderful performances of powerful stars such as Guo Tao , Huang Bo , Xu Zheng , by the way, Director Ning Hao also left the country in personAn excellent comedy, no matter how much it says, it is better to watch it yourself, after all, the happiness it brings is not suitable for spoilers.

"Crazy Stone" is an excellent Chinese film work in 2006, which is one of the earliest Chinese films to experiment with black humor, and a truly high-end comedy. Director Ning Hao used an actor who was completely unknown at the time to complete a gorgeous counterattack, and the box office reached 25 million at that time, which was unimaginable at the time. Therefore, the most important thing about a movie is the story and the way the story is told, not the face and fame of the star.

This movie also made actors such as Huang Bo and Guo Tao famous in one fell swoop. Of course, the performances of these actors are quite powerful!

I like "Crazy Stone" very much, the male protagonist is wronged and not understood, and when we read his story, we think of ourselves. The little people starring Huang Bo are down-to-earth. There are no poetic and picturesque comparisons, nor are there unfathomable philosophical words, some are just the daily trivialities of oil, rice, sauce, vinegar and tea.

A movie with distinctive characteristics, the director pays great attention to the sense of social reality when shooting, and the actors' acting skills are also in place, which is a good movie worth savoring.

Madness is never a stone!

Of all the things in the world, the stone is not good-looking. But it is such a hard and cool strange appearance, but countless people are crazy about it. Because of this inexplicable madness, almost all stone players have done a lot of crazy things for stones.

Today, let's go to reminisce and take stock together.

Extravagantly. Spending a lot of money in order to get the stone you want can be said to be the most common manifestation of madness among the majority of stone friends. Seeing the tempting stones, powerful stone friends will throw thousands of gold, 100,000 gold or millions of gold, and some will also shovel stalls, shovel shops and even go out of the bench bureau to spend hundreds of millions of yuan to shovel the street.

The stone friends who lack strength will use crowdfunding or loans to achieve their goals and show madness. In addition to the crazy cost of buying stones, many stone friends are also unambiguous in the matching of strange stones, decoration and construction of museums. They will spend tens of thousands of dollars to equip a base for the stone, and they will spend a lot of money to build a garden for the stone.

Swap cars for stones. The exchange of cars for stones (or luxury cars for stones, to be exact) is not a legend, but a real story that happened in the stone circle, and never more than once. There are two that have been rumored to be good stories:

A mysterious wealthy businessman in Hebei once exchanged an Audi A8 worth more than 1.3 million yuan for 4 Gobi stones in Inner Mongolia, and Mr. Huang, a stone friend in Zhejiang, also exchanged a BMW 730 that he had just bought not long ago for a stone. There should be many other stories of exchanging cars for stones, perhaps relatively low-key and not well known.

Sell your house and buy stones. In order to get the stone of their choice, the madness of the stone friends is sometimes beyond imagination. A stone friend in Zhuzhou, Hunan Province, sold a house in the urban area of Shenzhen for an axe pictogram stone.

In order to have more funds to play with stones, Shi You Lao Ning sold a villa in Shanghai. In order to buy the famous Lingbi stone "Linglongbi", Mr. Hu paid the price of 500 plus a house in Nanjing. Such a crazy move may only happen in the strange stone circle.

Look at the thatched house three times. What should we do if the stone we look at, and the treasure owner is unwilling to cut his love? Many stone friends have adopted it''Look at the thatched house three times. ''way, in addition to reasonable **, I hope to use sincerity to influence and impress the other party.

In order to buy a panda pictogram, Mr. Zhang, a friend of Zhejiang, ran a total of 6 times. The last trip was to drive from Zhejiang to Jiangxi at 12 o'clock at night, and it took more than 4 hours to drive to the door of the treasure owner's house, and then waited in the car until dawn, and finally returned with a beautiful stone. I believe that many stone friends have this kind of perseverance and perseverance, and the transaction of many stones is also the result of this spirit.

Adventure in search of stones. In addition to spending a little silver to buy stones, many stone friends in the production area will also take stones by themselves, and thus take risks. For example, going deep into the Gobi Desert no man's land to pick up stones and getting lost, such as picking up stones on the river beach and being besieged by sudden floods, such as digging stones in the soil and rock slip and almost being buried, such as risking their lives to dive into the water dozens of meters deep to salvage strange stones, and so on.

These are all manifestations of madness for the stone.

Life is like a movie, everyone is an actor, acting out their own wonderful. Movies are predetermined, while life is disordered, and you never know what will happen in the next second.

Crazy stones, crazy people. Stones, because of the praise and pursuit of the world, have walked on the altar and attracted countless people to be obsessed and fanatical. And because of a stone, the quiet town shattered its former peace.

Factory elder Xie accidentally obtained a jadeite, green and shiny. In this gem, he saw hope for saving the handicraft factory that was about to go out of business. So, Lao Xie planned to hold a jadeite exhibition, planning to make the jadeite famous and sell it at a good price.

Considering the security of the venue, Lao Xie handed over the security work to his most trusted person, Bao Shihong. It was also at this time that the birth of jadeite attracted the peeps of two groups of people. In order to get the land for the factory, Feng Dong spent a lot of money to ask the international thief Mike to steal the jade and destroy the exhibition, so that the factory fell into a new predicament; The other group is a three-person theft team composed of Brother Dao, Xiaojun, and Heipi, with the purpose of making a fortune.

In this way, around this jadeite, the three parties fought for the jadeite with wits and courage.

In this war, they used their own way to interpret a comedy that was ridiculous and unlucky, and got a twists and turns ending: Xie Xiaomeng stole the real jadeite and gave it to Jingjing, and after being obtained by Brother Dao, he exchanged the real jadeite for the fake jadeite, and then, the real jadeite went around and around, and finally came to Bao Shihong's hands and gave it to his lover.

Life is both a comedy and a tragedy. Everyone in the film has their own comedy and tragedy: Lao Xie is happy to get the jade, and sad to sell the factory; Feng Dong was happy to get the land of the lead banquet factory, but he was sad to be killed by the thieves he hired; Mike is happy to complete the task, and it is sad to kill ......his employer

Sadness and joy are the contradiction between water and fire, and the coexistence of ice and water. Life is always a mixture of joy and sorrow and surprises.

Life doesn't always be a comedy because of someone, and it doesn't always be a tragedy because of someone. While it brings you sadness, it also brings joy at a particular moment. Therefore, life is full of surprises, and tragedy may turn into comedy in the next second.

Everyone's life is a movie, and it will not be starred according to the established trajectory, and it is up to you to decide whether your life is happy or sad.

Therefore, Jade is speechless, looking at the world with cold eyes, sorrows and joys; Life is speechless, sorrow and joy are intertwined, showing all kinds of things in the world.
