Udumo lukaBret Easton Ellis luyaqhubeka; omnye wooyise abasungula uncwadi lweBrat Pack, umbhali wencwadi yamva nje ehlonitshwayo (kunye nengxoxo) inoveli American Psycho, kwaye laa mfo uhlala esenza ukungaziwa kakuhle kuye.
Isibhengezo
Ngokwenyani, udliwanondlebe ngomnxeba kunye no-Ellis lumtyhila njengendoda enomtsalane, ecingayo kwaye ethandekayo, umntu onomdla kushishino lokonwabisa, ubugcisa kunye nelungelo lenkululeko yokuyila.
Ndibamba umbhali ngelixa ekwipromo yendlela yokubonisa imovie yakhe entsha, iSmiley Face Killers, islasher yala maxesha esibona umlingiswa ophambili kaJake (odlalwa nguRonen Rubinstein) engcungcuthekiswa liqela labazinikeleyo abamsongela ngamanzi kunye umlalele yonke imihla yakhe.
U-Ellis - obhale iskripthi kwaye wayengumvelisi olawulayo wefilimu -usekele intsomi yakhe kwiintsomi zasezidolophini, ezichaza ukunyamalala kwabafana abayi-50 kwi-West Coast yase-United States, abathi bonke babhubha ngokuntywila (ngokwenyani, ukubhubha kwabo kuhlala kungachazwanga, nangona abacuphi ababini, uKevin Gannon no-Anthony Duart, babona ubuso obunoncumo obukrwada kufutshane neendawo ababefumaneke kuzo).
Ukulawula ukhetho lwakho lwe-imeyile, Cofa apha.
Ndiyambuza ukuba kutheni ngoku ilixesha elililo lokuba le ngxelo ixelwe, kwaye uEllis utyhila ukuba ubhale lo mbhalo kwiminyaka eli-10 eyadlulayo. Kwakuyixesha ngendlela, kuba xa iqabane lam elivelisayo kunye nam ndiqala inkampani yethu yokuvelisa, engasekhoyo, besicinga ngendlela elula yokufumana inkampani yokuvelisa emhlabeni kwaye zoyike iifilimu ngokulula ngemali. 'Masibone imovie engabizi kakhulu kwaye iya kuba yiprojekthi yethu yokuqala.'
Ngelo xesha, ndandiwaqaphele la manqaku malunga ‘nababulali abancumayo’ intsomi yasezidolophini okanye nokuba yayiyintoni na, kwaye kukho into eyayithetha nam. Into malunga nobuhle - abancinci, abathandekayo, amadoda eembaleki asekholejini ayarhaxwa ngesiquphe, okanye abantu abakhange baqaphele ukuba bayarhaxwa ngesiquphe, ecaleni kolwandle olusempuma kunxweme lwaseCalifornia.
Inyaniso yokunyamalala kwamakhwenkwe igutyungelwe yimfihlakalo, ke u-Ellis kunye neqela (kubandakanya umlawuli uTim Hunter) bathathe inkululeko yokuguqula ibali libe ngumdlalo bhanyabhanya ocekeceke, obuyela emva kwizinto ezithandwa nguPsycho, iCabin Fever kunye neHalloween. Ngokwenyani u-Ellis-ian, amadabi kaJake ngempilo yengqondo aphosa amathandabuzo kuye njengombalisi othembekileyo wesiqwenga esikhokelela kwisiphelo esothusayo, esinobundlobongela, kodwa esichukumisayo. Kunzima ukungabeki iSmiley Face Killers kwi-oeuvre ka-Ellis, ehleli ngokuqinileyo ecaleni kwoluhlu lwabakwishumi elivisayo abanengxaki efanayo. Nditsho Ipowusta yeqonga riffs off Isimbozo esingaphantsi kweZero sika-Picador sika-2011 .
Kubonakala ngathi kufanelekile ukubona i-blockbuster, enobundlobongela, kunye nomdlalo bhanyabhanya osasazayo okhutshwe ngaxeshanye njengebhetshi yesibini kunye nobubanzi obuninzi; leyo ye cinema. Ubhubhane luzise imiceli mngeni emitsha kwishishini lokonwaba, kodwa lowo uhlawula ixabiso nangona ukhutshiwe kunye nethemba lokubuyisela imeko yesiqhelo. IiCinema ziyasokola ukugcina iingcango zazo zivulekile. Ukungaqiniseki nokuba bangazibonisa ngokwenyani iifilimu, xa kuthelekiswa nenyaniso yokuba bambalwa kakhulu iifilimu ezikhutshwe ngaphezulu kwe-2020-kubandakanya umlilo oqinisekileyo ofana no-James Bond's Akukho xesha lokufa - umntu-ngamnye-wongeze esinye isikhonkwane kwiibhokisi zemidlalo yeqonga.
Yayikwabaninzi abothusayo abenzi bhanyabhanya, nangona, xa uWarner Bros wabhengeza ukuba bazakuthumela iimovie zabo ezingama-2021 kwimidlalo yeqonga nakwiHBO Max ukusasaza ngaxeshanye, inyathelo eliye ugxekwe kakhulu ngokuthandwa nguChristopher Nolan .
Ababulali beSmiley Face (uKutyikitywa koLonwabo)
Ndicela u-Ellis - umthandi odumileyo hayi nje iimuvi, kodwa umbono wokuya kumdlalo bhanyabhanya - into ayenzayo yokuhamba, nokuba kuthetha ukubhubha kwe-cinema okanye ubudala obutsha beHollywood, kwaye ndidibana nefemi phendula.
Ukufa cinema. Ndiyakucinga [cinga], ukufa kwe cinema. Kudala isenzeka. Izitudiyo endicinga ukuba ekugqibeleni zifuna oku ukuya kuthi ga kwinqanaba kwaye bazakudlula kwixesha apho befuna ukukuqonda ngcono, kodwa ndicinga umbono ... oku kuqhubeka, ndiyacinga, amashumi eminyaka. Ndicinga ukuba ii-studio azikuthandi ukwahlula i-50/50 kunye nabanini bemidlalo yeqonga kwaye bahlala beyicaphukela into yokuba xa izitudiyo zingasenayo eyazo iithiyetha. Kulapho kwaqala khona oku, kwaye yayiyiloo nto, kwiminyaka eli-15 eyadlulayo.
Uyaqhubeka: Jonga, ndikwiminyaka ethile, ndiyayiphosa. Kwaye lo nyaka ngowona mde ndakhe ndahamba ndingahlali kwi-cinema ebomini bam ukusukela oko ndandineminyaka emihlanu okanye emithandathu. Ukugqibela kwam ukuya kwi-cinema kwakungo-Matshi. Kwaye ndiyiphosile. Bendihlala ndingumxhasi omkhulu wamava e-movie kwaye uyazi, kodwa into eyenzekileyo kulo nyaka… Ndicinga ukuba uqhela nantoni na-ndiyathetha, bendonelisekile kukusasazeka.
Yintoni eyenzekayo kukuba iTV ibhetele kakhulu kuneemovie. Ndiyathetha, yonke ithelevishini elungileyo endiyibonileyo kulo nyaka igqitha imovie yonyaka, iphindwe kalishumi. Ke, yile nto nje siyenzileyo. Iimuvi ziye zaqhuba kakuhle, iminyaka eli-100, masithi, ngo-1920 ukuya ku-2020. Sibanike amabhaso, salinda emigceni ukuze siwabone, sawabona kwizigodlo ezikhulu, oko kukuthi, ndicinga ukuba, bemkile ngoku. Kakubi kakhulu.
Kucacile ngokuthetha no-Ellis kukho ukudinwa okungqonge umbono wakhe wokonwabisa kunye nomzi mveliso wokubhala, mhlawumbi ngenxa yokuhlatywa ngawo amatyeli aliqela. Ukhathele ukuduka kwi-cinema. Uninzi lweTV? Cr * p kunye s ** t. Unoko engqondweni, kwakubonakala ngathi kukungathandabuzi ukumbuza ngomsebenzi wakhe ekuxoxwa kakhulu ngawo: Ingqondo yaseMelika , ethi yona ibengcono okanye embi kakhulu itshintshe indlela abantu abajonga ngayo uncwadi, kunye no-Ellis. Ukuthatha kwakhe impikiswano kwinoveli enkulu yaseMelika ubona ukungaziphathi kakuhle, ubundlobongela kunye nocalucalulo uPatrick Bateman (ngokwenyani) uqhekeza i-yuppie New York City ngelixa egcina iinwele zakhe zityhafile kwaye ubuso bakhe bufumile.
Ngeminyaka yama-90s xa incwadi yayizakupapashwa, uphononongo lwalujolise ngakumbi kwiziganeko zobundlobongela ezoyikisayo, zisusa kumxholo wenoveli esebenza njengesigxeko sabathengi baseMelika. Ukugqwesa, ukuqaqadeka nokuntsonkotha kobuntu kukaBateman kwalahleka, amazwi acaphukisayo afuna ukuba incwadi irhoxisiwe yathatha indawo. U-Ellis wafakwa. Uphengululo olubi emva kovavanyo olubi lwawa emnyango kwakhe.
Ngoku, inoveli ibonwa njengesiqwenga seentsomi, ehleli phakathi kwama-greats asemva kwexesha langoku. Kodwa uthi, ngaphandle kwamathandabuzo, ngekhe ipapashwe namhlanje.
Ukuziva kwam amathumbu hayi, ngekhe kupapashwe. Bazama ukungayipapashi ngo-1990, ke… oh Nkosi yam ngo-1991 xa kuthelekiswa no-2020! Ndicinga ukuba, hayi, ndicinga ukuba nawuphi na umshicileli oqhelekileyo angayala ngenxa yokuba bayayoyika kakhulu. Kwaye ndiyoyika ukubuyela umva ngoku.
Ingxaki kunjalo Ingqondo yaseMelika ngumboniso we-misogyny, ubuhlanga, ubufanasini, nantoni na. Kodwa ukubonakaliswa kwahluke kakhulu kunokuba, uyazi, ukuba ngumntu ongathandani nabesini esithile okanye ubundlobongela okanye nantoni na. Ndicinga ukuba abantu banengqondo ethe kratya ngoku malunga nokuba bawudla njani umxholo kunye nendlela abachonga ngayo kunye nendlela enokubuyisana ngayo. Ndicinga ukuba yinxalenye yengxaki… isikweko. Ukungabinakho ukubona iAmerican Psycho mhlawumbi njengesikweko ngoku kungayenza into embi. Kodwa yaphuma ngombulelo xa yayisenziwa kwaye inqaku lemovie lanceda abantu ukuba bangene ebhodini kunye nencwadi.
uhambo 1200 ixabiso
Ngokusweleka kwe-cinema kusondela kunye nendlela esibusebenzisa ngayo ubugcisa obuhlala butshintsha, iziva ibaluleke ngakumbi kunangaphambili apho izidalwa zinokukhululeka ukuba ziphonononge. Kodwa ngaba banako?
Andazi ukuba kubalulekile ukuba umbhali athathe umngcipheko ngokubhekisele kwiimvakalelo zokona, u-Ellis ubonakalisa. Kodwa ndicinga ukuba kubalulekile ukuba nenkululeko yokuphonononga naziphi na izihloko ozifunayo. Kwaye ndiyalufumana olo hlobo lokunyamalala ngaphakathi kulo mzuzu sikuwo ngoku. Ndicinga ukuba ulwabiwo lwenkcubeko luhlobo lwento eyoyikisayo ekufuneka ibhalwe ngayo.
Kuya kufuneka ukuba ubhale malunga nayo nayiphi na into ofuna ukubhala ngayo. Kwaye gxeka nantoni na ofuna ukuyibhala-inkululeko leyo ibonakala ngathi iyawohloka ngandlela ithile kuba kukho ugqithiso kwindlela ozibonakalisa ngayo. Andiqondi ukuba ilungile kubugcisa, andicingi ukuba ilungile inkululeko yokuthetha, okanye nayiphi na. Ke, andazi ukuba zeziphi iingozi ezinokuthi zithathwe ngumbhali ngaphandle kokuba nehlokondiba, uyazi, liza kuwa phantsi.
Ababulali beSmiley Face (uKutyikitywa koLonwabo)
Ngelixa kunokubonakala ngathi lixesha elinzima loyilo olunje ngo-Ellis, inkolelo yakhe kwifomu yobugcisa imgcina eqhubeka neeprojekthi ezintsha. Okwangoku, usasaza ibali lakhe elitsha, ii-Shards, ngokusebenzisa IBret Easton Ellis Podcast . Ngendlela efanayo ne-Smiley Face Killers, u-Ellis uphonononga elinye ibali lokwenyani lolwaphulo-mthetho malunga ne-LA yabantwana edibene nombulali, iTrawler. Yiprojekthi yobuqu ka-Ellis njengoko eneneni isekwe kwinto awayehlala kuyo nabahlobo bakhe.
Ndiyathemba ukuba ndiza kuyipapasha, kodwa andikayithengisi nakubani na okwangoku. Kwaye andikenzi zivumelwano, kodwa ndifuna ukugqiba kuqala, utshilo u-Ellis ngale projekthi.
Ndicinga nje, 'Uyazi, akukho mntu wakha wayenza le nto ngaphambili'. Akukho mntu wenze inoveli kwi-podcast, kwaye yeyona nto iphambili kakhulu. Ke, ndiza kuyidubula kwaye ndibone ukuba ihamba njani. Ndicinga ukuba asikabikho phakathi kwayo, kwaye andicingi ukuba izakugqitywa kude kube ngoMeyi okanye ngoJuni.
Mhlawumbi kumqondiso wamaxesha, u-Ellis ukwakwinqanaba lokuqala kwimveliso yeTV, ecaleni kombhali weTrainspotting u-Irvine Welsh. Ekuqaleni, esi siqwenga sasinamahemuhemu okuba sijongane nomatshini wokushicilela, kodwa sitshintshile.
Sisebenza kwinto ethile - akusekho malunga nokushicilelwa, senza omnye umboniso. Yayingumbono wokuqala lowo, sasiza kwenza umboniso malunga noonondaba, kodwa emva koko besisenza umboniso malunga nenye into, kwaye oko kukwinqanaba lokuqala. Ke, besitshintshiselana nge-imeyile kule mpelaveki malunga nendlela esiza kuyibopha ngayo yonke le nto.
Kwaye ngokuthembeka ngonaphakade kwifilimu, u-Ellis unethemba lokuqondisa ifilimu entsha kwesinye seencwadi zakhe kungekudala. Ngoyilo olunje ngo-Ellis, umqobo omkhulu-njengamabhanyabhanya ukuvala-awuyi kumyekisa ukwenza into ayithandayo. Kuze nini?
