An introduction to Don Quixote s character in The Legend of the Devil

Don Quixote is an "anti-knight**", is "Don Quixote an anti-martial arts movie"? Mr. Tang Ji, who was alert after falling off the cliff, finally stopped his delusions and dared to face up to his weakness and incompetence, but did not evade his ideals and responsibilities because of this, and instead launched a people's war between the peddlers and pawns. When it comes to the biggest gimmick of the film, the so-called Asia's first full 3D film, the performance of the film is difficult to say that it is satisfactory, but it is undoubtedly worth encouraging to achieve such a level under such financial conditions and technical environment, at least it did not take the shortcut of post-production transformation in order to take a ride, but really explored step by step.

Not everyone is willing to do the things that the predecessors planted trees and the future generations enjoyed the shade, Forrest Gump has the courage to eat crabs and devote himself to research, and is changing from a "bad movie director" who was once shouted at by everyone to a respectable professional filmmaker. The audience likes geniuses like Jiang Wen and Ning Hao who are shocked as soon as they make a move, but geniuses are hard to come by, and it is also a blessing for Chinese films to have more pragmatic and progressive professional directors like Forrest Gump. (Sohu Entertainment Review).

First of all, "The Legend of the Devil: Don Quixote" is indeed a real 3D movie, although the effect cannot be compared with "Avatar", but the integration with the plot is quite good, especially the oriental landscape and action special effects are of a very high level, and moderation is the most appropriate. Secondly, what I want to focus on is the effort to write and direct the Chinese literary classics, and the expression of Don Quixote and Don Quixote's peerless ideals. Forrest Gump has grasped the trick of expressing artistic feelings in commercial films after "The Absurdity of Two Fools in Big Movie 2" and "Happy", and "The Legend of Don Quixote" is a qualitative leap.

"The Legend of the Devil: Don Quixote" is a fantasy movie directed by Forrest Gump and starring Guo Tao, Lin Jiaxin, Liu Hua, Wang Gang, Li Jing, Zhang Aiqin, etc. The film tells the story of Don Quixote who is full of martial arts**, but he is powerless but wants to fight like a hero. 1 The film was released in Chinese mainland on October 15, 2010.

According to director Forrest Gump, since more than 60% of the shots of "Don Quixote" need special effects, coupled with its high production cost that is one-third higher than that of ordinary films, if you can't see the effect in the later stages of shooting, "the investment will only soar wildly in the post-production stage, so you need to use the technology of virtual photography to foresee the stereoscopic effect in the early stage of shooting." As early as 2009, Forrest Gump flew to the United Kingdom and the United States, and frequently contacted nearly ten special effects studios. ”

In the early spring of 2009, the team led by Fu Thrush, the art director of the film "Don Quixote", had already begun the sketch design and construction of several major scenes in the film. Among them, the crater scene that appears at the beginning of the film is designed against the backdrop of Don Quixote's first dream, and Blue Sky Studios (the production company behind "Ice Age"), which is known for its textures, has also made a lot of suggestions for the scene design sketches of "Don Quixote", "Because the movie feels magical to them, the hair and skin texture of the monsters and beasts must be refined." It is reported that during the eight months of post-production of the film in the United Kingdom and the United States, director Forrest Gump and the investor Xinghao Company also discussed back and forth no less than ten times because of the issue of additional costs, "In the end, it was because everyone wanted to work hard to make a good movie, and the boss was willing to add 10 million to complete the capture of the movements and expressions of the characters in the film."

Forrest Gump explained.

1, Hai Yitian played a villain in the film, called Simon, and at first positioned him as a more sissy type in the role setting. Of all the actors in the film, he got the role with the most twists and turns.

2. When Guo Tao and Qin Pei competed in the movie, Guo Tao used a set of familiar but undisciplined boxing techniques. When talking about this set of kung fu, Guo Tao said with a smile that the martial arts instructor once made up a set of punches for him, but after the fight, everyone thought it was too beautiful, not quite like a person who didn't know kung fu. So Guo Tao used the "Guo Family Boxing" he created when he and his son were fighting together, but the effect was very good, so the director adopted it.
