◆ Introduction:

This killer is not too cold-luc besson.

Luc besson was born in Paris on March 1959 18. As a child, he traveled around the world with his parents as a diving instructor for a long time, so his childhood was almost spent in the water. This childhood gave him a great impression and inspiration, the most obvious achievement is that he will give birth to his famous work "Blue Sea Love" in the future.

Luc besson has shown extraordinary creativity since he was a child. His films "Blue Ocean Love" and "The Fifth Element" are said to have been drafted when he was very young. He had an accident when he was diving at the age of 17, so he couldn't dive for a long time, so he gave up diving and planned to become a marine biologist who studied dolphins, so he returned to his birthplace in Paris. /kloc-at the age of 0/8, Besson enjoyed modern life for the first time, even including very ordinary TV. He gradually found that only movies can satisfy his interest in all kinds of arts. Before long, he started doing odd jobs in different movies, and then went to America for three years. When he returned to Paris again, he set up his own film company, which was officially named "Crown Prince Film Company" soon.

Almost all luc besson's films are written by himself and produced by his own company. Although most films belong to American entertainment films, the production mode of self-directing and self-acting or even self-making is typical of screenwriter films.

Besson's budding work is the last battle of 1983. This seems to be a movie about the future, but the world in the movie can't see the continuity of human society now, and there are a lot of imaginative and pessimistic descriptions of human future in the movie. Next is the thriller "Subway" set in the Paris subway. Imagination is still the biggest feature of the film, which also shows Besson's special thinking and imagination when he came into contact with the subway as an adult. Similar to the last film, the personal world reappeared in the film. This small world has many similarities with our ordinary people's world, but it has its own survival rules. Besson fully demonstrated his appreciation and creative imitation of Hollywood thrillers, musicals and other types of films in the film.

From 65438 to 0988, luc besson directed the most successful of his early films, Love in the Blue Ocean. It can be seen that Besson incorporated some of his childhood experiences and dreams in the film, and successfully created the image of Jack Mayol, a young diver who takes the sea as his home and dolphins as his friends. There are a lot of beautiful underwater photography in the film, which expresses Besson's love for the sea. This film won the César Awards for Best Sound Effect and Best Music. At the enthusiastic request of many audiences, Besson later released a three-hour version, adding a lot of shooting materials, including this super-long version, which was seen by 2 million audiences in Paris. It can be said that this film has achieved brilliant success.

After more than two years, Besson once again released another masterpiece, Nikita (Falling Flowers). This is a Hollywood-style bizarre story that turns a hopeless female prisoner into a super female spy. After the film was released, it not only set off a box office frenzy, but also won a number of French Cesar Award nominations and awards, which can be said to be "fame and fortune". In the same year, Besson also made a movie about Atlantis in his personal way. He not only personally directed, but also personally served as a photography director and editor. It's a pity that the film didn't cause much response.

1994, Besson attacked again, and made a sensation in the world cinema with Black Boy Not Too Cold (Black Boy Leon). Audiences flocked to the cinema to watch this exotic Hollywood blockbuster with both violent gun battles and ambiguous love between young and old Xian Yi. Renault and Portman have also become world-class idol stars.

If Besson went to Hollywood step by step and declared war on Hollywood with his own personal style blockbuster, then 1997, the fifth element, can also be said to be the peaceful achievement of Besson and Hollywood. Not only has the film mode been completely Hollywood, but the scene of the story is also in new york, and it is also the Hollywood star Bruce Willis who saved mankind and the earth. In addition to some unique imagination about the future, you can also see Besson's personal traces, and the film can completely belong to a large number of science fiction films produced by Hollywood. In any case, the film became the French box office champion with 1997, with a total box office of more than 200 million US dollars worldwide, and won the technical award of Cannes Film Festival.

Near the end of the century, Besson suddenly completed a large-scale costume movie "Messenger: The Story of Joan of Arc" in the mode of Hollywood epic. You should know that Joan of Arc by Dreier and Blethen is an insurmountable peak in film history, while Besson's French predecessor jacques rivette just made a version a few years ago, and the American version has just been completed. Is Besson sure to challenge these masters? This is the question of almost all viewers and film critics.

In this way, this luxurious production can only show us a slightly different Joan of Arc from the American version. Many plots and details of the two films are similar, and I'm afraid there are still some behind-the-scenes news that is not enough for outsiders. Besson's new girlfriend Milla Jovovich's performance follows some styles in The Fifth Element-nervousness, panic and fragility. Therefore, this version of Joan is almost the most unusual. She can make people feel crazy and confused in the whole film. There is a fine line between a saint and a madman. Maybe Besson thinks so. Besides, there is little to say about the film. At the turn of the century, we saw a luxury blockbuster in the style of French Xi Dish Mill. By the way, the angel of God played by dustin hoffman at the end of the film is also regarded as Besson's "special treatment" for the theme of Joan of Arc.

Besson has long announced that he has only directed ten films. Now that nine movies have passed, what will happen to the tenth one?

I've only seen this killer. The weather is not too cold. I like it very much.
