Diao Yinan's Master Class 'The Gathering at Southern Station' was conceived as pure love fantasy - Lujuba a total of 11


1905 Film Network News On October 11, Diao Yinan's master class was held at the 4th Pingyao International Film Festival. The film festival founder Jia Zhangke and director Diao Yinan appeared together, analyzing the behind-the-scenes works of his past four works. Director


Diao Yinan said that when he made his debut "Uniform", he was still in a stage of imitation. After the filming, I also contacted many international distribution companies and felt that the works of Chinese directors are so shy. At that time, they also found Shishan Shangzo. He said that the film was good, but he had Jia Zhangke in his hands. He even wanted to discover movies that were different from Jia Zhangke's images.

Therefore, these suggestions stimulated Diao Yinan's follow-up creation, not just imitating, but to take pictures of what you like. At that time, it happened to be discussed in a cafe, what if you shoot a killer? This is a very commercial subject, so it spread from this perspective, and finally the movie "Night Car" was made.


After "Night Car", he realized that he was still a serious, calm, critical, and elite creative mentality that cared about reality. It just so happens that it is very difficult to find investment in "Fireworks in the Day". Because of the situation caused by objective reality, Diao Yinan had to adjust his mentality and slowly promote the film from commerce and the public. At this time, I discovered that film theory is very important.


Director Diao Yinan admitted frankly that Liao Fan was not the first actor he looked for when he was filming "Fireworks in the Day". The fate of every movie and actor is established in this way. Some actors think that "the third and the fourth are looking for me because they don't pay much attention to me." In his opinion, the actor is the best standing in front of the camera.

Finally, the two together made "Fireworks in the Day". In his eyes, Liao Fan’s performance has also undergone some changes with this role. During the filming process, the director also made his performance no longer so easy, a little bit raw, like a half-done steak, the performance is uncertain. On the contrary, sex appears more real and has a more sense of life.


The "Gathering at Southern Station" that I met with the audience last year was actually created earlier than "Fireworks in the Day". At that time, Diao Yinan was confused by the script and overthrew himself again and again, which was painful and he was trapped by funds. At that time, he began to fantasize about how to get a sum of money. He wanted to leave the money to a girl who was still in the south and how he wanted to give her the money. In short, it was originally a relatively pure love story.


Later, after filming "Fireworks in the Day", I saw a piece of news about the thieves' congress. He thought this news was very interesting, so he dug out the "fantasy" he had conceived before, and combined the two together, so he created "The Party at Southern Station".

As for future works, Diao Yinan has no specific ideas, but said that he will follow this path, hoping to make a more peaceful film.
