Sir, do you know who is my favorite poison tongue artist recently?
This is not Venus. ...
Because its reputation ... fell again this season.
On the sharpest and most poisonous mouth cannon, Mr. Wang gives you a new choice-
Horace and Pete
Horace and Pete
Although the title and posters are a little deep, they still have a retro freshness and are a little open. ...
On the rampage, swearing lines came to my face (several shielding points in one sentence * * *).
I'll tell you something else, you pathetic reminder. First of all, you are stupid.
You may be afraid of your sister.
……
And this sudden hurtful cynicism:
You are unhappy because you are too fat.
-You kissed me before.
That was before I found out I didn't have to kiss you.
I never liked it.
So straightforward, so "dirty" and so unpretentious, but sir .................................... I like it.
The watched media and audience also joined in, and it was rated as the fourth American TV series in the first half of 20 16 by Entertainment Weekly.
Douban 9.4(32 13 score).
The freshness of rotten tomatoes is 95%.
As can be seen from the title of the play, the story takes place in an old bar, and the founder of the bar is two men on the poster, H and P.
The descendants of the two men, as long as they are male, are named H and P. This rule lasted for 100 years.
There are three owners in the bar now. Justified are the two sons of the late H-H VIII (played by Louis C.K.) and P VIII (played by Uncle steve buscemi).
H to the left, P to the right
The old P (alan alda) of the previous generation, as the "prison minister", will still come to the pub to grab the job.
The magic weapon of the old city hall is his poisonous mouth.
Hey! I know you two old ladies are retired.
But do you want to do some work?
A bar with history is the best place to pretend. But "Centennial Pub", on the contrary, is quite wonderful.
Most obviously, it didn't do a good job at all.
The wine list remains unchanged for a hundred years, just four things:
Beer, whisky, vodka, gin. Beer is still the old brand.
Other brands? number
A fashionable foreign wine? number
Not keeping pace with the times, making some new varieties and increasing turnover, the three bosses also took the lead in dismantling the "pub".
Once investigators came to check the accounts and found that they had mixed water in the wine.
As a result, the poisonous old P turned his head and shouted a "confession" at the customer-
We have been adding water to wine, and we have done so 100 years.
..... Although it's no secret, Old P, you are so aboveboard, do you want to come back?
Don't want to pub customers also dragged, swearing back:
I knew it, you bastards.
Now it's the investigator's turn to be embarrassed and he has to shut up and run.
Look, this bar is not only great, but all the people in it, both the boss and the customers, are experts in mouth cannon.
That's the best part-
A mouth gun is a slot, and there are few normal dialogues in the whole play. In fact, it is possible to make things clear.
The whole play runs through a family contradiction: should pubs be sold?
H's sister came to the pub with a lawyer, ready to take legal procedures to sell the pub.
Old p who is not good at words is determined. He has been running a pub for a hundred years, and all the heirs are there, so he can't sell it. As usual, he will tell the historical story of the pub.
One hundred years, Sylvia (H's sister)
As a result, my sister broke free in an instant, and she left her doubts behind in one sentence-
A hundred years of pain is enough, okay?
Unfortunately, it should be left behind.
Instead of throwing it at your children.
Bar for a hundred years, why is she described as suffering? This will be revealed soon.
Look at the younger generation so noisy old P, moving out of her dead dad-
God, if your father were still alive, ...
Don't say ok, when it comes to dad, h elder sister is more grumpy:
Please, my father abused my mother.
He's a fucking animal narcissist.
Thank God my mother took us away.
It turns out that old H will have a domestic violence, have a bad relationship with his children, and even be dumped by his wife. ...
In the whole process, it only took 17 seconds to get rid of the disgraceful history of the last generation of a century-old pub.
It's all drama.
However, there is actually ... no other plot in this drama besides the mouth gun. ...
Scared? !
Don't leave in a hurry, this is a new play written, directed and acted by Louis ·C·K.
Don't know him?
This is called "the gloomiest and funniest comedian in contemporary America" by American media, and the most playful and unconventional comedian.
He was nominated for Golden Globe Award and Emmy Award for many times, and won six Emmy comedy trophies in prime time.
After the success of his last work, Louis is not easy, he is eager to make a play by himself.
Louis is not easy. Douban score is 9.0.
Just do it, invest, produce and issue; Script, director, editing, starring ...
All by yourself, so there is a "century-old pub".
The new drama has been shot, and the lineup is definitely big enough:
Even the real mayor of new york appeared-
The big coffees just sip their throats, which is a propaganda weapon.
But Louis refused and even asked them to keep a secret.
What he has done for this painstakingly-managed work is "zero publicity", and the only marketing is to send emails to the subscribers of his website when the play is online.
My new work "Centennial Pub" can be seen, five yuan an episode, come on.
Don't sell TV stations without advertising time, just publish them on your own personal website.
The price is cheap, only 3 1 knife for the whole season.
My brother, this is unusual. ...
So maverick, don't follow the rules of the game, cool is cool, but the price is-
I made myself poor.
I ran out of ammunition and food, and finally made this ... "Nothing" (Louis' original words). Different from mainstream TV series, it is a bit crude and even rough.
Especially in other American TV dramas, I can't wait to give full play to people's designs, lineups, shots, plots, lines and stories.
It is more like an extended drama without stage effect, an unprocessed raw material.
All kinds of resources can be described as minimal:
I don't like changing scenes.
The whole drama 10 episode, most of the plot takes place in the pub-
The number of converted scenes is estimated to be no more than one hand.
So that every time I change it, netizens are so excited that they scream:
Change the scene! Scatter flowers!
Cameras are too lazy to play tricks, multiple cameras, no close-ups.
The picture is from Wikipedia.
Less time consumption. Every Monday, the actors read the script around the table, rehearse it on Tuesday, shoot it officially on Wednesday and Thursday, edit it on Friday and broadcast it on Saturday. The whole play is extremely fast from production to distribution.
Save the background music. Apart from the music at the end of the film, there is basically no post-soundtrack in the play.
Every time music appears, it is when the character turns on the radio or jukebox.
However, the roughness of Centennial Pub is not crude, but it has stripped off too many dramatic decorations and stuck to the word "truth".
Behind the compact shooting and production speed, there is only one purpose: to ensure freshness and make the audience feel realistic.
Reduce the background soundtrack, but try to make musicians appear artificially and be close to ordinary life.
The play "Centennial Pub" is as quiet as every ordinary person's life, with only the noise of the wheel of fortune running.
But it is precisely because of the reality of this drama that many viewers said:
Listen, it hurts.
Because although this comedy is full of astringency, it is a melancholy system, so that people who like it dare not watch it again.
It's so depressing ... the greatest comedies are tragedies ...
I like this play, but I will never watch @ Mosaic again.
Although classified as "comedy", there are few sentences in "Centennial Pub" that can make you laugh immediately.
Unlike the same comedy "Bankrupt Sisters", there are few scenes and wonderful dialogues.
Tucao, headed by two girls, is in the form of paragraphs.
You can't tell Asians that he made a mistake.
Otherwise, he will draw his sword and commit suicide in the future.
You can't see such jokes in "Centennial Pub".
Everyone's mouth guns are hard and accurate. Be cruel, be mean and be reasonable.
For example, this scene:
Hearing old P talking about Jewish lawyers in an angry tone, the fat girl sitting at the bar is very sensitive-
Okay ... what you said is racist.
Old p hit back:
Good ... racial discrimination depends on what you do, not what you say.
How's it going? Is it too reasonable to refute?
At that time, it was the presidential election, and those who opposed Trump directly scolded:
If he is elected, it means that we don't want to hang out.
Then don't mix.
That's how democracy collapses, right?
People fall, choose people like him, and then he destroys them all.
It seems to spit, and the point behind it is more real. I can only laugh when I think about it.
The jokes in "Centennial Pub" are neither vulgar jokes to please the audience, nor are they made a fool of by funny-looking people.
Instead, it shows us the contrast between people who are trapped in real life but seek hope.
His smile is a wry smile.
The new york Observer commented-
Darkness, nonsense and even no jokes, the original sound of TV is comparable to two peaks. (One of the most famous TV series in the 1990s in America) But I still laughed.
Its pain lies in bringing out the dark side of life through the ordinary daily life of the characters.
Louis plays H, divorced, unemployed, and a schizophrenic brother P.
The only property and life is this bar.
Occasionally, I try to establish feelings with my daughter, but every time I talk, it is always "more than 3 seconds".
The object of sexual fantasy is his father's last female ticket. ...
In a word, he is a middle-aged man who has failed.
In the play, the dialogue full of abuse and spit reveals the truth of life while showing H's middle-aged crisis.
Love is hard to find-
You can only accept
Accept the fact that love is rare.
Maybe it will never happen to you.
This is what life feels like-
For me, living means getting up, going to work, sleeping and eating.
Take care of yourself and keep good relations with people around you.
It's not a very interesting life, but you must go on.
Because it is always possible to get better.
Sometimes life is good, even if it isn't.
You know there will be a beautiful day.
Some plays persuade you to move on by "stabbing", which causes depression.
But "Centennial Pub" is the true face of reality, exposing the truth that most people maintain the so-called "positive energy":
It just exaggerates the possibility of life getting better, so as to deceive yourself and endure a monotonous, boring and easily disappointed life.
And even if we are fed these positive energy chicken soup, most of us still can't really change that part of our lives.
@OBHAVA: Anything can fail, anything can fail, you can only accept it. I can't meet love in my life, I can't stick to a friendship, I can't run a family, I can't resist illness. ...
As written in the ending song—
I have nowhere to talk about my sufferings, and life is neither bad nor bad. There is no other way but to play dumb and endure.
Li Bihua once borrowed a flower in "Rouge Kou" and said:
The real thing is the least attractive.
So this nice and real "century-old pub" is not attractive enough for many people.
But Mr. Wang still wants to thank Louis C.K. for letting us see it.
This is a magic play.
Louis shut himself in this pub, and used the limited dialogue between the characters to dig out the truth of life, so that the audience could see a world that made people laugh and cry and was meaningful.
