UKelly McNeely: Usebenze nozakwethu wokubhala, u-Patrick Melton, kancane - ubuyela ku-Project Greenlight. Ungakwazi ukukhuluma kancane mayelana ne-genesis yale phrojekthi nokusebenza noPatrick? 

UMarcus Dunstan: Nakanjani. Lolu hlobo lwezwakala sengathi siza umbuthano ogcwele ngendlela, ngenxa yethoni yefilimu Idili - lokho bekuwuhlobo lwesikhathi sethu sikaWilly Wonka ukuze senze imuvi - besifuna ukwamukela ukushaqeka nokuthusa okwesabekayo okwakungashaqisi ngendlela ebambe ngayo into engenacala futhi iyilimaze, yayingahambi. ukulimaza izethameli. Kodwa ibifuna ukusho ukuthi, uma bekukhona okuncane - hhayi ukufezeka kwesifiso - kodwa ukugcwaliseka kwephupho elibi kanye nokuthatha abalingiswa abawukudla okujwayelekile - ifolishi lokuqala lezisulu - kodwa ukuba nabo babe nezwi elincane ngesiphetho sabo. Engathi cha ndoda angisalahli ithemba ngenxa yokuthi umhlaba wangilahla. Futhi lowo mdlandla wezitikha wawuyinto esasihlale siyibambe ezinhliziyweni zethu.

Uyazi, sadabuka eMidwest - mina ngivela edolobheni elincane e-Macomb, e-Illinois - kwathi uPatrick wayengowase-Evanston, okusinikeza ikusasa. Besicabanga ukuthi, ngeke siphume-e-East Coast/West Coast kuleli dolobha, kodwa mhlawumbe singalidlula-Maphakathi nentshonalanga kancane futhi sibone ukuthi singaletha ini. Ngakho-ke phuthuma phambili kuleli thuba, lapho u-Evanston adlala khona indima enkulu, ngoba u-Evanston njengendawo yokuhlela yezindaba zikaJohn Hughes, besifuna ukubonga ngalokhu. Ngoba basinike izikhathi ezimangalisayo zobuntu, nakuba ushukela wawuthi, “hey you’re gonna go see a teen comedy”, bese kuba khona lomzuzu osuka enhliziyweni. 

Akuve UFerris Bueller lapho u-Cameron ekumnyuziyamu, futhi leso yisikhathi esafakwa ngokuqondile kulokhu njengendawo eyinkomba, ukuze kuqhunyiswe abalingisi ngesikhathi esithile, phakathi nendawo. Futhi yisigcawu esihlanganisa ama-mannequins okugqokiswe ngawo - angifuni ukukukhulula - kodwa bekuyi-Ode yethu eya ku-Cameron.

Lapho nje ngisho leso sigameko, wonke umuntu kusukela kwabancane kuye... hhayi abancane [ehleka] washeshe wakuthola, futhi waqonda inhloso yalowo mzuzu. Njengokuthi, yebo, sizomangaza abantu abanomzuzwana wenhliziyo lapha. Futhi uma sinamathela endaweni ethile, ngeke sibambeke entweni oke wayibona ngaphambili. Sizokwenza uzizwe okuthile okuhlukile. 

Ukubuyela emuva ku-Evanston yakho konke, yingakho isikole sethu esiphakeme kwakuyi-Evanston Hill, kubhekiselwa ku-Evanston lapho uPatrick aye khona futhi lawa mafilimu ahlelwa, kanye no-Hill, indawo lapho uJohn Hughes ayefunda khona ngempela. Ngakho-ke esasikudinga kwakuyi-alchemy yokuthatha lokho esikukhumbulayo hhayi kuphela kokuhlangenwe nakho kwethu kwasesikoleni samabanga aphezulu - futhi wonke umuntu, ithimba labalingisi, noma yisiphi isikhuthazo esivela kulokho - futhi sacabanga ukuthi masenze umshini wesikhathi esincane lapha. Sonke sizobuyela esikoleni samabanga aphezulu nalokhu, sishiye okuthile okusizwise ubuhlungu lapho, futhi sibuyise okuthile okusinike ithemba, bese sikungeza kulokhu kulandisa. Angicabangi ukuthi angeke aliyeke ithange lome. Ngisho ukuthi, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi kushisa kangakanani, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi kukhathele kangakanani, kungakhathaliseki ukuthi umbani wawuzama ukusisusa eMhlabeni, asikwazanga ukuyeka ukuzama ukuzuza kulaba balingisi abaholwa kahle kakhulu ngu-Brianne Tju. Amandla angaka.

Ngithande lokhu okuhlangenwe nakho. Angifuni ukuthi iphele. Yebo, izophuma, yahoo, kodwa futhi iyababa ngoba ngizovalelisa komunye wabangane abakhulu engake ngaba nabo; isipiliyoni sokwenza le movie. 

UJohn Hughes ngokusobala wayekhuthaza lapha, ngokuqinisekile. Okungenabo ubuntu uhlobo olufana nomdlalo othusayo wentsha yama-80s, kodwa enkathini yesimanje, izwakala yesimanje kakhulu nakuba - ngizovuma - ngenkathi ngisaqala ukuyibuka, ngoba sekuyisikhashana ngaphambi kokuba ubone umakhalekhukhwini futhi imfashini ihambisana kakhulu, Bengithi, o, ingabe lokhu kusethwe kuma-90s? 

Sasinenhlanhla enkulu, futhi sisebenzisa yonke i-molecule eyodwa esinayo ukuxoxa indaba. U-Eulrn Colette Hufkie, umklami wemvunulo, wamukele imifanekiso engutsheni, ngakho bebekutshela ukuthi ubani umlingisi ophethe ibhantshi lasevarsity, bebekutshela ngayo yonke imininingwane. Wonke umbala nokuzethemba komfaniswano womlingiswa wawo wonke umuntu bese kuvumela ngokuphelele amandla amaphakathi e-Ever - umlingisi we-Ever, odlalwa ngu-Brianne - othulisiwe. Uma kukhona ijakhethi yase-varsity, ukuMalungu eyodwa kuphela e-beige ne-shapeless futhi yini. Umlingiswa wakhe ufuna noma yiliphi ithonya, njengokuthi, iyiphi indlela okufanele ngihambe ngayo? Futhi kuthatha le ngqungquthela eyaziwa ngokuthi ifilimu esabekayo ukwenza wonke umuntu abe ngumuntu kancane lapho ebhekene nomcimbi Akunabuntu.

Iyini imfihlo yokulandelana okuhle kwe-zombie?

Nkosi yami, into enkulu ukuthi awudingi i-gazillion dollar ukwenza lokho kusebenze. Okudingayo uthando nogqozi ukuze uzizwe umusha, nakuba ubonisa okuthile okubolayo. Pho ukwenza kanjani lokho? Futhi ngicabanga ukuthi ngivele ngancika kokuhle kunakho konke okwakukhona ukuze ngibone ukuthi benzani. Futhi kwakukhona indikimba evamile. UGeorge Romero, yiqiniso, ungunkulunkulu walokhu, ngoba abafile abaphilayo endaweni yonke babeyimifanekiso yendikimba, noma ngabe ukuthengwa kwempahla, noma ngabe ukuhlukana kwezinhlanga, babeyimifanekiso yalokho okungalungile ngokuphila. 

Ngakho-ke kuleli cala, mina nalaba balingisi kanye nalo mdlalo wesikrini, besifuna ukusho okuthile ngobuxhwanguxhwangu, futhi besifuna ukukuphumela obala sivume ukuthi kungukonakala komphefumulo. Kuyadabukisa, kuyasikwa. Umqondo wobuxhwanguxhwangu wazi kanjani kahle izisulu zethu ezithambile? Yazi kanjani, ngaphandle kokuphonsa isibhakela kwesinye isikhathi? Ukuthi amazwi ahlekisayo angasibhidliza, uyazi, sizoqhuma. 

Futhi ngakho-ke nganginjengokuthi, kulungile, qagela ukuthi yini, nansi isiqondiso uMnu. Zombie [ekhipha i-zombie head prosthetic]: uyisiqhwaga esinobuqili esinobuqili, ungena lapho ukuze uchithe ukuzethemba kwabo namandla abo okusinda. , bashaye ubuchopho babo ngokwesaba, ukuze bangacabangi ukuthi bangakwazi ukukudlula futhi ngandlela-thile babe phambili ngesinyathelo esisodwa empilweni yabo, nakuba uzama ukuthola indlela yokuqeda ezabo. Ngiyitholile? Hamba!

Uyazi, futhi kwakuwuhlobo lwalokho! Lokho kwamvumela ukuba abe yedwa. Uma ibishesha, ibingasheshi ngenxa yencazelo esuselwe kokuthi, Impi Yezwe Z noma okuthize. Cha, kwakushesha ngoba kwakuphakwa kabi. Kwakuwubuqili ngoba kwakwenziwa isiko lobuxhwanguxhwangu, lokuhlala nje ushintsha okwenja ephethwe yigciwane lokuzethemba. Futhi lokho kwavumela imibono engaguquki ebesifuna ukungena kuyo esenzweni sokuqala.

Uyazi ukuthi obani laba bantu, futhi bavela kumdlalo wamahlaya wentsha. Kodwa qagelani? Iningi lamahlaya entsha yakudala manje asehlolwa kabusha ukuze athole eminye yemizwa yawo engokwemvelo enyantisayo. Futhi qagela ukuthi yini eyayihlale ikhona izama ukufundisa? Ifilimu esabekayo. Lapho bebebonakala beshaqeka ngaphandle kwesango, kepha ukuthambekela kwabo kwakungeyona inyoni noma uzofa. Ungalinge usheshe wenze ucansi, kungenjalo uzofa. Ungasebenzisi izidakamizwa, kungenjalo uzofa. Uzofa noma kunjalo, kodwa ungafi nje uyisidomu!

Futhi ngakho-ke sinemibukiso yesifunda saseTeton bese kuthi-ke kufika imuvi esabekayo ezoba ngathi, bam! Siyathatha, ungubani manje? Futhi ngiyakuthanda lokho, lokho kuzwakale njengengxube enhle yohlobo olulungile lwe-fuse ukuthi luhlale eminyakeni evuthayo ewubusha. 

Ngiyayithanda “imvelo ekhethekile yangemva kwesikole” Yomuntu Ongenabuntu, ngicabanga ukuthi leyo yindlela ekhaliphe kakhulu yokuyivula. Ngoba inayo ngempela leyo ndaba yokuziphatha kuyo. Ngaphandle kokungena kakhulu kubaphangi, inawo lowo mlayezo omelene nobuxhwanguxhwangu, kodwa futhi kukhona uhlobo oluthile lomuzwa omelene nobuthi, engicabanga ukuthi udweba ukufana okuhle kakhulu kwezehlakalo ezifana neColumbine kanye - muva nje - Uvalde. Kuyinto esabekayo namanje ehlala eluhlaza kakhulu. Ungakwazi ukukhuluma kancane mayelana nokuzulazula lokho futhi uhlanganise leyo timu ndawonye?

Ngakho-ke lesi bekuyisikhathi socingo oluphezulu. Ake sithi unikezwa ithuba lokwenza ifilimu esabekayo, bese kufanele unqume, kahle ukuthi hlobo luni lwefilimu esabekayo ezoba yiyo? Umbhalo ungakuyisa kude kangaka, ngoba usuku nosuku, amakhonsathi, lapho obeka khona ikhamera, ukuthi uwushintsha kanjani umculo nokunye, kuwukudlala ngendlela ozokwenza isibukeli sizizwe ngayo. Futhi sasifuna ukugwema ukuhlukumezeka. Besifuna ukugwema ukuhlukumeza izethameli, kodwa sihlale ebusweni bazo ngaleso sihloko ukuze sicishe sihlubuke ngokugcwele - njengo-anyanisi onjalo, izingxenye zawo eziluhlaza, izingxenye zawo zemfundo - futhi ngaphandle kokusebenzisa kabi obukade usetshenziselwa wona kumamuvi. , okuyinani lokuzijabulisa. 

Laba izinhlamvu ezizethembayo ezingenayo, futhi ngokuvamile zithunyelwa ngokushesha. Wonke lawo mamuvi ngandlela thize athatha kancane njengoba ulindele abantu abangafihlwanga nawo wonke lowo monakalo ukuthi bathathe kancane futhi babe okuthile ekugcineni njengoba imashi yefilimu esabekayo. Ngakho-ke ngalokhu, ngibone i-trailer ye-movie ngaphambi nje kokuba siqale ukuqopha. Uyazi, sasinenyanga eyodwa noma ngaphezulu ngaphambili, futhi kwakuzoba yinhle kakhulu. Futhi i-trailer ngokwayo yayiwukuhlatshwa okunganqamuki. Futhi lenze kahle, njalonjalo, futhi ngacabanga… asinjalo. 

Ake sithi usetendeni, futhi uma ungena kuzo zombili izikrini, futhi esinye sivusa leyo mpendulo, noma lokho okuyisikhuthazo sakho - uma sizama nokuya lapho, sithini? Kungani sizohluka? Futhi lokho kuholele ekugxumeni okukhulu okuphinde kwaqinisa i-twist enkabeni yalokhu. Futhi ikakhulukazi ngezehlakalo ezinyantisayo zomlando wakamuva, sisathola ukuthi - ngokuzethemba, ngokusebenzisa ubuciko nenhliziyo - sisho okuthile. Inikela ngendlela ecabangelayo, kuyilapho uzuza ibheji. Njengokuthi, yebo, siyimuvi ethusayo, kodwa sizokumangaza ngamahlaya. Sithemba ukuthi sizokufundisa ngetimu. Futhi uma sonke siphumela ngakolunye uhlangothi ndawonye, ​​mhlawumbe inhliziyo yethu izizwa igcwele kakhudlwana, futhi, futhi iyafudumala. Kuhle. Kwakuwumgomo lowo. Lokho kwazizwa kungasindwa yisabelomali, isikhathi, noma yini, ukuzimisela nje ukuzama. 

Yileyo nto "ekhethekile yangemuva kwesikole" uhlobo oluyiqhubela ekhaya. Lapho nje ngibona ukuthi i-pop up yafana, kulungile, ngiyitholile! 

Lokho kuyinhlonipho yokuthi uBlumhouse uyasethemba, ngoba ngiyakhumbula, ngacela lokho ngaphambili. Bengifuna ukwenza izithombe zebhuku lonyaka, ukuze ngingene ngokuphelele. Futhi abanqabanga, bathi, uma uyihola, uma siqala ukubona imiphumela bese uthola leyo toni, kuhle kakhulu. Abafuni ukubhalisela ithoni evele ihlukane phakathi, uyazi, njenge-jalopy elahlekelwa izingxenye endleleni yokugibela. Futhi ngakho lokho kwakungenye yezinto zokugcina ezingeziwe. Futhi siyabonga, akukaze kuphume lapha [ekhomba ekhanda], futhi akuzange kuphume esihlosweni sethu, kodwa kwakuyileyo nkanyezi nje ephezu kwesihlahla ukusiza ekukhanyiseni konke.

U-Peter Giles, ngiyazi usebenze naye ku-Pilgrim ethi Into the Dark... izwi lakhe lilungile -

Kuyamangaza!! Futhi uyizwi lika - angazi noma uyakwazi lokhu, kodwa uyizwi leFox Sports. Ngakho-ke lapho uzwa, [izwi elinzima] “Namuhla ebusuku, amaBhele athatha amaPackers”…. Nguye! Okwakumnandi kakhulu ukuthi uyakwazi ukuthutha umhlaba wonke futhi ashaye imiqondo yabantu ngomsebenzi wakhe omuhle. Futhi-ke uba nesethaphu yombhobho wakhe, ngakho-ke ngezikhathi ezithile, uzombona nje eletha le nto emangalisayo. 

Ngakho-ke bengingasebenzisa ngokugcwele ubungane kanye nobudlelwano bomsebenzi ngokushelela emigqeni engangifuna nje ukuzwa lelo zwi lisho, lokho kwakungafaneleki nhlobo. Njengokuthi, “Kungani ngingakusho lokho?” Vele uzame! “Amagiya! Yini engaphakathi kuzo?” Njengokuthi, cha, ngeke sikusebenzise lokho, kubi, Peter! [ehleka]

Uyisebenzise kahle, uthengise wonke ulayini owodwa awulethile. 

Futhi okwakumangalisa kakhulu ukuthi wayelungile phezulu kweshejuli. Futhi lesi kwakuyisipho esikhulu. Noma yimuphi umenzi wefilimu okhona, uma ungakwazi, ulwe kakhulu ukuze udale ithuba lokushutha imuvi ngokulandelana, ulithwebule ngokulandelana, uthola ukuvela nalo ngempela. Futhi lokho bekuyisihluthulelo sempumelelo ekuthuthukisweni komlingiswa omningi, besisazana ngokukhiya. 

U-Peter wayesevikini lokuqala, ngoba ngangifuna ukufanekiswa ngokomzimba kwethoni nesilungiselelo sebha ukuze ngimemezele umhlaba we-bubblegum we-Act One. Bese kuthi uma isiphetho sefilimu ethusayo kuhlasela, lokho kumenyezelwa kwefilimu entsha. Bese kuba nenye imuvi eqala lapho. Ngakho kwakuyisihluthulelo sokuba nalezi zinsika. Futhi into enkulu ukuthi, uyasukuma futhi wayemi ngqo phambi kwalezo zingane futhi ngaso leso sikhathi wahlwitha kuyo, futhi kwakukuhle. Futhi ngithi izingane, laba ngabantu abadala abasebasha, kodwa bonke abalingisi - naye - bavele bafaka uthayela. Nganginjalo nje, ngibonga kakhulu futhi ngikhuthazekile. 

Futhi ngalokho, uqhubeka udala, ulokhu uphusha, futhi uguqula leli thuba libe yisipiliyoni sempilo. Ngakho-ke akukapheli lapho imizuzu engu-90+ iqengqeleka. Lokhu kuyinto engifuna ukuyigcina enhliziyweni yami kuze kube phakade. 

Manje, kufanele ngibuze, angazi ukuthi yini ongakwazi ukukhuluma ngayo, kodwa, Okuqoqiwe? 

Ngempela! Ingabe uyazi kancane, kwakubonakala sengathi kukhona isigodi sethemba. Futhi muva nje leso sigodi sigcwaliswe ngethemba eliphelele futhi kukhona abantu abangochwepheshe abazama ukuqaqa ifindo likaGordian ukuze banikeze lelo elinye ithuba. Futhi niyazi, ngakho sonke sifuna ukukwenza. Kufanele nje sihloniphe isimo "kanjani", kulokhu. Ngakho lokho kungenye into enhle. Akuyona cha, yindlela nje, ake sithole ukuthi kanjani, futhi ngithemba ukuthi singakwazi. Nginethemba lokuthi singakwazi futhi sizokwenza. 

Ingabe unaso isikripthi esilungile?

Awu yebo! Nakanjani. Yilokho yonke into. Futhi leyo yinto enhle ngakho, uma uyibhale futhi ungakwazi ukukhombisa ezinye izinto esezivele zakhiwe, khona-ke kulula kakhulu ukudlulisa lokho esingathanda ukukwenza nokuthi sifuna abantu bazizwe kanjani. Futhi ekugcineni i-mantra ithi, uma ingeke ibe engcono kakhulu, kungani uyenze?

Eminyakeni ephakathi kwabo, bekuzuzisa ukungayeki ukusebenza ngokuthi kungani umqondo ungenzeka, ngakho-ke akuzwakali sengathi kuqhunyiswa uthuli kuwo. Kuzwakala sengathi bekufanele kwenzeke kulo mzuzu, sisebenzise ithuba lokuba nabalingisi abamangalisayo, noJosh Stewart, no-Emma Fitzpatrick, bamukele ukuthi impilo nesikhathi sesidlulile, nokuthi izimpilo zabo bezilokhu zinjani kulawo mafilimu amabili.

Idimoni labo elisemhlabeni lisaphumile, lizimisele ukubhekana nabo. Imaphi amademoni amasha abanawo ngaphakathi kubo ukuze balwe nawo? Ngiyakuthanda lokho. Futhi hey, sesikhulile kancane, sinenganekwane esontekile ngaphambili. Futhi lokho, futhi, kugcina ikhwela leketela livuliwe, ithemba lokuthi kuyenzeka.
