Is there an original work for "127 Hours"? What is the original work?

Danny Ball has long wanted to bring the story of Aaron Ralston to the screen. For this, he has been preparing and waiting for nearly four years. Ball first wrote a synopsis and concept for the film, and then Simon Beaufoy completed the script. Although the film tells the story of an American, Ball described the film as a "very British film" in style and called it a very personal "about an immobile man". Guy’s action movie”. In March 2010, the film began filming in Utah, where Aaron Ralston was actually trapped. By June of that year, the film completed filming and entered post-production. During the filming process, the film crew also encountered many challenges, the most typical of which was the "amputation surgery" scene that was later so realistic that it shocked the audience. For Tony Gardner, who was in charge of makeup for the film crew, although it had been a long time They are all responsible for creating makeup effects for bloody scenes in horror movies, but it is still very difficult to create such realistic effects. He and his team studied the medical accuracy of such surgery down to every minute detail, and used it perfectly in the final shooting . It is this spirit of rigor and excellence that allows the film to restore the scenes that Aaron Ralston experienced at that time in every detail, and it can also give the audience a powerful sense of immersion.

Since the news that "127 Hours" was about to start filming, rumors about the film's starring role have also emerged one after another. In September 2009, it was reported that Cillian Murphy was Ball's first choice. Candidate. But soon in January 2010, Ryan Gosling became the most popular candidate to play Ralston, but it was James Franco who finally won the role. 2010 was a breakout year for Franco. He played two legends, one of which was a cultural hero in Howl (2010). Ginsberg, the other is the protagonist of this film, civilian hero Aaron Ralston. Although it is not necessary to be stuck in the valley for more than a hundred hours like Ruston, for Franco, this performance is still a challenge to hone physical strength and willpower, but fortunately, modern movies Technology allowed him to shoot this film without actually reaching the level of a professional mountaineer. Franco said, "Actually, in the movie, I never really climbed to the top as high as the one in the film, we just captured that shot. I don't need to learn too many mountaineering skills, but I have to go Doing a lot of strength exercises in the gym. "In the film, Ruston was trapped for several days, and of course it was impossible to be plump, so Franco admitted that the biggest challenge for him was Ball's weight loss requirement, so he had to eat every day. "Science Package".

For Franco personally, this is also a very special shooting experience, "This is really a very special, very intense, very valuable experience. We are going to shoot in a studio in Salt Lake City. , and have to restore it to the canyon shot where Allen was trapped. "At the same time, Franco also has to shoot some shots in the real environment. He needs to repeat many actions and let the camera shoot from different angles. After Franco joined the crew and started filming, he didn't even see most of the other crew members in the first month, because when he was shooting some scenes on location, other members might be doing other shooting and preparation work in the studio, so The experience of shooting and producing multiple scenes for one scene in a movie was indeed a special experience for Franco.

When the film's prototype, Aaron Ralston, was stuck in a canyon, he once filmed a day's diary of his life. He only showed this image to his best friends and family members, and he even stored it in an underground vault at a bank to keep it safe. However, before filming began, Danny Boyle and James Franco were fortunate enough to be allowed to view the recording so that they could truly and accurately portray Aaron Ralston's situation in the film.

The film premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 12, 2010. It is said that due to some bloody scenes such as amputation, many viewers at the time were nauseated and even fainted on the spot. At the Telluride Film Festival, two viewers went to the hospital after watching the film. One was diagnosed with syncope and the other was diagnosed with excessive fright. Both of them were watching the "amputation surgery" in the film. "The above reaction occurred after the scene.
