#Lord Brynner

[sonicandvisualsurprises]

1961

Lord Brynner’s Season’s Greetings is a delightful calypso classic that illustrates his warm, charismatic vocal delivery and knack for storytelling.

You’re right. I do want in because there are so, so many — and a lot of mine don’t have clips, sadly.

-The Pink Lady with Hazel Dawn, a frothy little 1911 musical at the New Amsterdam Theater before Flo Ziegfeld moved the Follies in. (Though he was a producer of this.) Main reason? My mom bought the score for this at a flea market for a quarter, so I grew up hearing the music. At one point, Hazel Dawn played “The Pink Lady Waltz” on stage with a violin.

-The Ziegfeld Follies of almost any year, but if I had to pick one, it would be 1915. W.C. Fields, Bert Williams, Ina Claire, Mae Murray, Olive Thomas, Marion Davies, and Ann Pennington were in the cast and the song “Hello, Frisco!” was introduced.

-The original cast of A Chorus Line, which I missed on my senior class trip in ‘77, though I did get to see Annie with the original cast, including Dorothy Loudon. “What I Did for Love” was the unofficial song of the drama section of our graduating class, because even at that age, the question, “What would you do if you couldn’t dance any longer?” resonated strongly with us. (There is, btw, a not great version of a B&W video taking at the Public Theater before the show went to Broadway on YouTube. I listen more than I watch, but that moment is still heartbreaking.)

-The Bandwagon, 1931. Another musical review and another one at The New Amsterdam, though this one was produced after the the Follies had ended. It was the last Broadway show Fred Astaire did with his sister Adele before she retired from the stage to marry and English lord. (Yes, the film Royal Wedding is partially based on her.) Frank Morgan was also in the cast, and that would have been a treat.

-Anything Goes, 1934, with Ethel Merman creating the role of Reno Sweeney. She did the role for the movie version, but Merman and the movie camera never seemed to be a great fit because she was too big. Would have loved to see her fill the stage with her personality, hitting back of the balcony in those days before there microphones.

And it’s so hard to pick just five. I’d love to have seen Pacific Overtures, but there’s also recording shot for Japanese Television out there on YT with the original cast, including Mako (and better quality than the Chorus Line video) . https://youtu.be/MQ546PASgHI?si=X8vvHvsWDdlSFVi1

I’d put Dreamgirls on the list, but I did get to see it with Jennifer Holiday here in Los Angeles when it opened on tour. (And she was amazing.) A Day in Hollywood, A Night In the Ukraine was another premiere tour production, a show that does not get enough productions, because we all need a revue of great classic movie songs performed by the ushers at Grauman’s Chinese Theatre, including a tap dance rendition of the Motion Picture Code, and a second act which is the “great play Chekov never wrote” starring the Marx Brothers and Margaret Dumont. But there’s also Chess, which I saw in London and just missed in New York. Probably should put Les Miz on the list since that is a show I have managed to miss in London, New York and Los Angeles.

One show I really wouldn’t want to see was a muscial originally called Odyssey when I saw it on pre-Broadway tour. Starring Yul Brynner and Joan Diener, it’s one of the more notorious flops on Broadway. When I saw it, the show clearly needed work, but had some funny bits, especially Yul Brynner, who was hysterical as Odysseus masquerading as the beggar when he arrives home. But the show was re-worked quite a bit more, and not to good advantage. By the time it hit Broadway, it was retitled Home, Sweet Homer, and had 11 previews and 1 performance. Some stories say the closing notice as up as soon as the opening (and only) performance was finished. Other stories say it was posted during the intermission.

You have 5 tickets and a time machine to see any Broadway shows in the past

Which 5 shows are you seeing? It could even be off Broadway, a show you’ve already seen, a show you’ll never get to see, ANYTHING. Put your 5 shows in the hashtags…

Janufifties:Anastasia

In this 1956 film General Bounine(Yul Brynner) plans a con having a woman with amnesia , Anna Koreff (Ingrid Bergman ) pose as the Grand Duchess Anastasia to gain a large inheritance

So I love this movieand I didnt yhink I would .The film builds off the rumor that Anastasia survived the execution of the Romanovs .....A theory which has been disproven.However the idea is an inticing one for a movie ,to the point there have been several tellings of this idea,notably the 1997 animated musical ,which was based on this film .Unlike other versions there is no villain here ,and thank god for that ,the film knows the premise is interesting enough ,with all the conflict coming from the characters and the ideas of the film,it doesnt need a forced antagonist (THough I havent seen the stage musical version,I hear the villain in that is good ) .THose ideas ,exploring things like clinging to the past,belonging somewhere and of identity ,are explored so well.I also like that it is ambiguious whether or not Anna is Anastasia or not .What really makes the film though are the three central performances,with powerhouses like Ingrid Bergman ,Yul Brynner and Helen Hayes just selling the film .Hayes brings a sense of melancholly to the Grandmother while also being the movies heart and soul ,while Brynner has a sense of control even when things seem to be going off track .The star of the film is rightfully Bergman and....Yeah reason she is considered of of the great actresses. Humor, sadness, confusion, vulnarablity and grace are all in this character and its a phenomenal performance (She won a rightfully deserved oscar )

If the film lacks something,its sadly the romance ,which feels like an afterthought ,cause the romantic chemistry is almost nonexistent,there are no big romantic scenes.The film is still great ,but dont go into the film expecting a grand love story

Overall ,this might be my favorite film of Janufifties so far

It’s been the practice here to honor notable film-related anniversaries at the onset of every year – Looking back to move forward, if you will. This year there is particular excitement across social media because 2020 brings with it echoes of a century ago, the decade called The Roaring Twenties when youth threw caution to the wind and enjoyed life to its fullest. It was an era of economic prosperity and interesting (to say the least) social and artistic changes, an era of happenings and creativity. Some of that is reflected in films depicting the Roaring Twenties, which – luckily for us – happens to be this month’s theme on TCM.

In all pictures about the Roaring Twenties you’re likely to see the Flapper, perhaps the most familiar symbol of the era. The Flapper helped the decade retain a certain “feel,” one of partying and promiscuity with distinct style and energy. In movie terms you might look to Colleen Moore and Clara Bow to get a sense of what the Flapper was like.

Colleen Moore

Clara Bow

While the flapper enjoyed life throughout the decade, she gained considerable freedoms in 1920. On August 18 of that year the 19th Amendment was passed, giving women the right to vote. Due to the great economy at the time, millions of women worked in white-collar jobs and could afford to contribute in ways they previously could not. The increased availability of birth-control devices allowed for more personal choice and advances in technology helped the effort as well. Many homes in America, especially in the industrialized cities, were now powered by electricity, and effort-saving devices such as refrigerators, washing machines, irons, and vacuum cleaners, most of which were used by women, made life much easier as well.

Other inventions that came to be in 1920 include the hair dryer, invented by a women who inserted a hose in the exhaust of a vacuum cleaner. Brilliant! The traffic light was also born that year thanks to police officer William Potts who used red, amber, and green lights and $37 worth of wire to make his traffic light in Detroit, Michigan. The Band-Aid was invented by a man called Earle Dickson for his wife Josephine who cut herself often. The final invention worth noting was the automobile with the combustion, probably the most popular invention in the 1920s, which facilitated the Flapper lifestyle and led to many new jobs. The popular, reliable, and inexpensive Ford Model T made it all possible – and made it in the movies.

Harold Lloyd in GET OUT AND GET UNDER 1920

Stan Laurel in a Ford Model T 1920, which appeared in several Laurel and Hardy movies

  While previously mentioned freedoms were expanded, others were curtailed in 1920. The most famous being the 18th Amendment to the Constitution, ratified in 1919, but put into effect in 2020. The Federal Volstead Act, formally the National Prohibition Act, established to carry out the intent of the 18th Amendment, banned the manufacture and sale of “intoxicating liquors,” and at 12 A.M. on January 16, 1920, the Act closed every tavern, bar and saloon in the United States. Tragic as that may seem to some, there was plenty of booze to go around thanks to unseemly types who took control of underground “wet” businesses.

Hollywood’s fascination with Prohibition and the times during which it took place have resulted in fantastic film offerings through the decades. Sam Mendes’ Road to Perdition (2002) is one example of a great modern film dealing with the subject. But I am here for the classics and suggest you revisit the following to get a sense of how colorful the world was during the Prohibition era:

Another right was curtailed on June 13, 1920 when the US Post Office stated that children could not be sent by parcel post. Various instances of this occurrence made the law a necessity.

More interesting facts about 1920:

The average life span in the United States that year was about fifty-four years.

The top ten toys of the 1920s were:

Teddy bears

Erector sets

Lionel trains

Lincoln Logs

Raggedy Ann

Radio Flyer Wagon

Tinker Toys

Crayons

Tin toys

Tiddlywinks

On January 29, 1920 Walt Disney started work as an artist with KC Slide Co. for $40 a week.

On May 1, 1920 legendary slugger Babe Ruth hit his 50th career home run, his first for the NY Yankees in a 6-0 win over the Boston Red Sox. How sweet it was.

On May 16 Joan of Arc (Jeanne D’arc c. 1412 – May 30, 1431) was canonized a saint. Her life has inspired numerous films starting as early as 1900 with Georges Méliès’ Joan of Arc. I must admit I’ve only seen two films on this topic, but can recommend both: Carl Theodor Dreyer’s deeply affecting The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928) and Victor Fleming’s visually appealing Joan of Arc (1948).

On June 2 the Pulitzer prize for Drama was awarded to Eugene O’Neill for Beyond the Horizon.

On July 29 rebel leader Pancho Villa surrendered to Mexican authorities. As it turns out Villa who had an interesting connection to movies as this Smithsonian Magazine article explains.

On November 2, 1920 the first commercially licensed radio broadcast was heard, from KDKA in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The first broadcast was live results of the presidential election, a transmission of breaking news that was new and unprecedented. The impact of the medium of radio and the importance of this 1920 event cannot be overstated.

1920 in Hollywood

By the early 1920s, the film industry had made its (more or less) permanent move to Hollywood from the East Coast. The face of American cinema was transformed. Hollywood was now the world’s film capital producing virtually all films shown in the United States and 80 percent of the revenue from films shown abroad. Many American towns had a movie theater with over 20,000 movie houses operating in the U.S. by that year. Most Americans went to see the movies at least once a week. The movie industry became a big business. And Hollywood’s position only got stronger as many of Europe’s most talented movie players arrived.

By the end of the decade, the movies claimed to be the nation’s fifth largest industry, attracting 83 cents out of every dollar Americans spent on amusement. It’s only natural then that through this journey Hollywood also became the ideal of many things in the audience’s eyes. In particular the movies excelled at extravagance, fun, and glamour – and they were the primary distraction through tough times. Here’s more…

In 1920, Metro Pictures Corporation (with its already-acquired Goldwyn Pictures Corporation) was purchased by early theater exhibitor Marcus Loew of Loew’s Inc. In another acquisition, Loew merged his Metro-Goldwyn production company with Louis B. Mayer Pictures.

In 1920 C.B.C. Film Sales Corporation was founded in 1920 by brothers Jack and Harry Cohn, and Joseph Brandt. C.B.C. was renamed Columbia in 1924.

On March 28, 1920 the wedding of the century took place when Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pickford joined in matrimony. Fairbanks bought a lodge for his new bride and it was named Pickfair, a place that soon became the social center of Hollywood. In June 1920 the couple joined fellow newlyweds Frances Marion and Fred Thomson on a European honeymoon.

On April 3, 1920 F. Scott Fitzgerald wed novelist Zelda Sayre at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York.

Director John Ford wed Mary Smith in 1920.

Charlie Chaplin discovered Jackie Coogan and chose him to play The Kid released in 1921.

Alice Guy, the world’s first female filmmaker and a key figure in the development of narrative film, directed her final film, the feature-length Tarnished Reputations (1920).

Deaths in 1920

1920 is relatively early in the life of the movies so it’s not surprising only one stood out as notable…and particularly sad. On or about September 10 of that year actor Olive Thomas ingested bi-chloride of mercury from a French-labeled bottle in a darkened bathroom, believing it to be another medication. Found unconscious, she died five days later. The death made worldwide headlines. Olive was only 25 when she died.

With Olive’s death came a flood of stories linking her to alcohol and drug use and to sexual promiscuity. The evils of “movie people” were spotlighted along with her death by moralists everywhere. Regardless of the circumstances, which I believe have never come to light, this was the tragic death of a 25-year-old woman. Olive was survived by her husband Jack Pickford who was with her in Paris when the tragedy occurred. You can read more about the life and death of Olive Thomas at Silents are Golden.

Olive Thomas c. 1919

Among the notables who made their film debuts in 1920…

Mary Astor made her film debut by way of an uncredited part in Buster Keaton’s The Scarecrow

Madge Bellamy made her debut in Edward José’s The Riddle: Woman.

Charles Boyer in Marcel L’Herbier’s L’homme de Large

Greta Garbo in Ragnar Ring’s How Not to Dress, which according to the New York Times obituary is a short sponsored by the department story where Greta worked as a sales clerk.

Alfred Hitchcock – Hitchcock submitted a portfolio of title cards for The Sorrows of Satan and The Great Day and is hired by Famous Players-Lasky British Producers Limited. (Hitchcock.zone)

Barbara La Marr , the girl who was too beautiful caught everyone’s attention when she co-starred with Douglas Fairbanks in The Nut in 1921, but she made her debut the year prior in Bertram Bracken’s Harriet and the Piper.

Victor McLaglen in A. E. Coleby’s The Call of the Road (1920) he gets a starring role right off the bat as a gambler-turned-boxer.

Nita Naldi – the story goes that her dancing was spotted by John Barrymore, who obtained her debut role for her in Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920).

Claude Rains – we see him for a brief moment at the end of the film, but it’s a brilliant turn he delivers in his formal film debut as James Whale’s The Invisible Man in 1933, but as is news to me at this writing, Rains appeared in Fred Goodwins’ Build Thy House in 1920.

Notable Film Releases

Germany’s silent landmark classic, director Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari was released in the US in 1920.

Douglas Fairbanks’ first swashbuckler, Fred Niblo’s The Mark of Zorro (1920).

Buster Keaton made his first solo film appearance in the comedy short One Week (1920), after co-starring with Roscoe Arbuckle for the three previous years.

Ernst Lubitsch’s Passion was released in the U.S. bringing attention to Polish actress Pola Negri.

Way Down East, a romantic drama directed by D. W. Griffith and starring Lillian Gish was a top grossing movie of the year.

Harold Lloyd and Buster Keaton released several shorts each that are worth watching so check out their filmographies and get to it. Roscoe Arbuckle had a slow year given his star status in 1920, but that would all fall apart in 1921 following the Virginia Rappe scandal.

Harry Millarde’s Over the Hill to the Poorhouse��or just Over the Hill starring Mary Carr was one of the top grossing films of the decade.

Paul Powell’s Pollyanna starring Mary Pickford was popular despite both screenwriter Frances Marion and Mary Pickford not liking it.

Shipwrecked Among Cannibals, a travelogue/documentary directed by William F. Adler, was the first Universal film to gross $1,000,000.

Cecil B. DeMille’s Something to Think About starring Elliott Dexter, Gloria Swanson and Monte Blue was popular with audiences.

Story Idea #325 I’ll never write but absolutely love...

It’s the entire plot of “The King and I” (I’m talking the original-- the Yul Brynner one, the Roger and Hammerstein one).... except off the top of my head it’s one of the following with some like contextual key differences:

King Wang KaYee of HongKong (Jackson/GOT7)

Daimyo Nakamoto Yuta (Yuta/NCT)

Prince Kunpimook Bhuwakul (BamBam/GOT7)

Lord Lee Jaehwan (Ken/VIXX)

If you ever use any of these ideas, I would like to be tagged/credited so I can read them.

Lessons from Exodus 1: Obedience

Genesis 15.13-14

God said to Abraham, 'Know for certain that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not theirs, where they will be enslaved and oppressed four hundred years.  But I will also judge the nation whom they will serve, and afterward they will come out with many possessions.

My son rented the movie The Ten Commandments, starring Charlton Heston and Yul Brynner.  I hadn't seen it in years, and while Cecil B. DeMille's notion of what happened in Egypt and his emphasis was on the idea that man should not be ruled by other men, but by God, I found the film interesting.  He'd taken information not only from the Bible but from various ancient historians and had glossed over some rather important points, like the Passover which foreshadowed the atonement of the Messiah.  Nevertheless, it was an impressive film.

It had been quite some time since I'd read the Biblical account, so I turned to the book of Exodus to see what God had to say about it.  The lessons I'll post in the following weeks are just some things that caught my attention during my study of the book.

First, Moses argued with God.  He didn't want to go back to Egypt to lead Israel out of slavery, and he made all manner of excuses.

But Moses said to God, 'Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring the sons of Israel out of Egypt?'  —Exodus 3.11

Then Moses said to God, 'Behold, I am going to the sons of Israel, and I will say to them, "The God of your fathers has sent me to you."  Now they may say to me, "What is His name?"  What shall I say to them?'  —Exodus 3.13

Then Moses said, 'What if they will not believe me or listen to what I say?  For they may say, "The LORD has not appeared to you."'  —Exodus 4.1

Then Moses said to the LORD, 'Please, LORD, I have never been eloquent, neither recently nor in time past, nor since you have spoken to Your servant; for I am slow of speech and slow of tongue.'  —Exodus 4.10

But he said, 'Please, Lord, now send the message by whomever you will.'  —Exodus 4.13

Moses offered so many excuses that God finally became angry with him.  For every excuse that Moses offered, God had an answer. When Moses had exhausted all his excuses, he took his wife and son and went back to Egypt to do the Lord's will.

Have you ever tried to beg off something God told you to do?  I have.  Not so large a task as Moses was told to do, of course.  Only a small thing.  But obedience is obedience—and refusal is rebellion.

One year around Easter, the local supermarket had lamb on sale, so I bought two legs of lamb instead of just one.  I drove out to my mother's apartment to drop off her portion of the groceries, and as I was leaving, the Lord told me to give the second leg of lamb to her neighbor. I made excuses, saying to myself—and to God—that I would look silly just knocking on her door and handing her a leg of lamb!  (This area was settled by Germans and very few people like lamb.)  As I pulled out of the parking lot, the Lord repeated his instruction.  I was about to turn onto the main road, but I knew that if I drove all the way home with that extra leg of lamb instead of obeying God, I would be miserable.  So I turned around and went back.  I rang her bell, handed her the lamb, and drove home with the Lord's blessing, instead of my remorse.  The neighbor later told my mother that she loved lamb but hadn't had any in years because she couldn't afford it. Such a small thing; such a large reward.

Samuel said, 'Has the LORD as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of the LORD?  Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed than the fat of rams.'  —1 Samuel 15.22

Obedience is better than sacrifice!

In honor of Easter/Passover, I'm watching Biblical films over the weekend! The Movie I Watched Today was "The Ten Commandments", 1956. One of the GIGANTIC Biblical epics of the 50s, it's a tradition to air this time every year so the family can gather round and pretend they're religious for a few hours. The sets, wardrobe, props and production values are top-notch, the best that the Hollywood studio system could produce. The script and acting are awful. Basically, the movie is made for children, or adults who think like children. The dialogue is the main problem - it's so unrealistic and stilted, and so artificial, that there's not much the actors can do with it; and consequently, they walk through the film as stiff as robots. Yul Brynner and Anne Baxter really give it the old college try though. It really does seem like one of those cheesy child-Bible storybooks brought to life, very colorful and bright, and absolutely hammering your head with the text. The effects have really not aged well either - burning bushes, pillars of fire, the Plagues, even the vaunted Red Sea parting, all look like they're from old Star Trek TOS episodes (3rd season). It's still an entertaining film to watch, though - there's lots to look at and it makes a great drinking game; every time someone says "God" or "the Lord", you take a shot. And when Edward G. Robinson sneers "Where's your messiah NOWWWWWWWWWW?" you finish your drink. I made it almost 1/2 an hour in before passing out!

#Eli #Wallach #cream #face #fashionable #fashionstyle #festival #home #makeuplove #modelagency #modeling #naturalbeauty

One of Hollywood’s finest character / “Method” actors, Eli Wallach has been in demand for earlier mentioned 50 years on action and screen and has worked alongside the biggest stars, including Clark Gable, Clint Eastwood, Steve McQueen, Marilyn Monroe, Yul Brynner, Peter O’Toole (I) and Al Pacino, to name but a few.

Wallach was born on 7 December 1915 in Brooklyn, NY, to Jewish parents who emigrated from Poland, and was one of the few Jewish kids in his mostly Italian neighborhood. He went on to graduate with a B.A. from the University of Texas in Austin, but gained his dramatic training with the Actors Studio and the Neighborhood Playhouse. He made his debut on Broadway in 1945, and won a Tony Award in 1951 for portraying Alvaro Mangiaco in the Tennessee Williams play “The Rose Tattoo”.

Wallach made a strong screen debut in 1956 in the film version of the Tennessee Williams play Baby Doll (1956), shined as “Dancer”, the nattily dressed hitman, in director Don Siegel’s film-noir classic The Lineup (1958), and co-starred in the heist film Seven Thieves (1960). Director John Sturges then cast Wallach as vicious Mexican bandit Calvera in The Magnificent Seven (1960), the western adaptation of the Akira Kurosawa epic Shichinin no samurai (1954). By all reports, Wallach may possibly not ride a horse prior to generating “TMS”, but expert tutelage from the film’s Mexican stunt riders made it seem basic! He next appeared in the superb The Misfits (1961), in the star-spangled western opus How the West Was Won (1962), the underrated WW2 film The Victors (1963), as a kidnapper in The Moon-Spinners (1964), in the sea epic Lord Jim (1965) and in the romantic comedy How to Steal a Million (1966).

Looking for a third add actor in the final episode of the “Dollars Trilogy”, Italian director Sergio Leone cast the versatile Wallach as the lying, two-confronted, money-hungry (but somehow lovable) bandit “Tuco” in the spectacular Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo. (1966) (aka “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly”), arguably his most memorable performance. Wallach kept busy throughout the remainder of the ’60s and into the ’70s with good roles in Mackenna’s Gold (1969), Cinderella Liberty (1973), Crazy Joe (1974), The Deep (1977) and as Steve McQueen’s bail buddy in The Hunter (1980).

The 1980s was an interesting period for Wallach, as he was regularly cast as an aging doctor, a Mafia figure or an over-the-hill hitman, such as in The Executioner’s Song (1982) (TV), “Our Family Honor” (1985), Tough Guys (1986), Nuts (1987), The Two Jakes (1990) and as the candy-addicted “Don Altabello” in The Godfather: Part III (1990). At 75+ years of age, Wallach’s quality of work was still 1st class and into the 1990s and beyond, he has remained in demand. He lent fine support to Vendetta: Secrets of a Mafia Bride (1991) (TV), Teamster Boss: The Jackie Presser Story (1992) (TV), Naked City: Justice with a Bullet (1998) (TV) and Keeping the Faith (2000). Most recently Wallach showed up as a fast-talking liquor store owner in Mystic River (2003) and in the comedic drama King of the Corner (2004).

In early 2005, Eli Wallach released his considerably anticipated autobiography, “The Good, The Bad And Me: In My Anecdotage”, a wonderfully enjoyable read from one of the screen’s most inventive and enduring actors.

Diễn viên thế kỷ 21 ‘bất tử hóa’ nhờ công nghệ vi tính

Công nghệ đồ họa vi tính ngày nay có thể khiến một diễn viên trở nên bất tử, nhưng cũng đặt ra câu hỏi về sự tồn vong của nghề diễn màn bạc.

Công nghệ mô phỏng động tác động vật được áp dụng trong siêu phẩm “Avatar“.

Ở thế kỷ trước, khi sao chính qua đời giữa lúc phim đang ghi hình dở, các nhà làm phim có rất ít lựa chọn. The Guardian kể, vào năm 1958, khi diễn viên Tyrone Power mất vì đột quỵ trên trường quay phim Solomon and Sheba, đoàn phim đã phải thay thế sao chính bằng diễn viên khác là Yul Brynner, dù phim đã làm được 75%. Sau sự ra đi của huyền thoại Marilyn Monroe, phim Something’s Got to Give (1962) đang quay dở phải cất vào kho. Đèn âm trần vuông - cơn địa chấn của ngành công nghiệp chiếu sáng Bộ phim cuối cùng của minh tinh Natalie Wood là Brainstorm (1983) đã phải viết lại kịch bản hoàn toàn, ghi hình lại toàn bộ bằng diễn viên đóng thế khi minh tinh qua đời đột ngột.

Thế nhưng, kỷ nguyên điện ảnh mới đã đến, phần bảy của loạt phim Fast & Furious trình làng phiên bản nhân vật ảo hoàn chỉnh và sống động, chân thực của tài tử quá cố Paul Walker – người qua đời vào cuối năm 2013 lúc phim còn dang dở. Công nghệ điện ảnh giờ đây phát triển tới mức, tác phẩm hoàn toàn không bị ảnh hưởng nếu chẳng may diễn viên qua đời mà chưa kịp đóng máy.

Thậm chí công nghệ đồ họa vi tính (CGI) có thể tạo ra một nhân vật ảo có diễn xuất giống hệt người thật, bất kể diễn viên ngoài đời thật còn sống hay đã chết, miễn là các nhà làm phim đã có ngân hàng dữ liệu hình ảnh và âm giọng của ngôi sao. Để thiết lập ngân hàng dữ liệu của mình, các ngôi sao chỉ việc đứng vào giữa một cỗ máy vòm trắc địa khổng lồ gắn đèn LED và máy chụp hình, sau đó chuyển động ở tất cả mọi tư thế. Khi tài tử hay minh tinh khóc hoặc cười, mọi cử động và biểu cảm vi mô của họ sẽ được quét chụp lại. Sau đó, một phiên bản nhân tạo của ngôi sao sẽ được tái tạo giúp có thể thay thế cho anh ta/ cô ta trong hết những phim về sau.

40 năm công nghệ vi tính trưởng thành trên màn bạc đèn led âm trần 12w

Lịch sử công nghệ CGI gần như bắt đầu cùng với lịch sử máy vi tính. Năm 1968, thế giới chào đón thế hệ máy vi tính thứ ba và cũng chào đón những thử nghiệm đầu tiên với hiệu ứng đồ họa hình ảnh bằng máy tính. Khi đó, một nhóm các nhà khoa học Nga dẫn đầu bởi N. Konstantinov đã tạo ra thuật toán cho phép họ có thể di chuyển khiến một con mèo di chuyển trên màn hình, những ý tưởng sơ khai của hình ảnh ảo chuyển động trên hình. Thập niên 1970 chứng kiến hàng loạt thử nghiệm với CGI.

Giữa thập niên 1970, một nhà làm phim trẻ tên George Lucas nhìn thấy tiềm năng của công nghệ CGI đã phôi thai ý tưởng về loạt phim dùng công nghệ này. Đó chính là loạt phim Chiến tranh giữa các vì sao (Star Wars) đưa tên tuổi George Lucas ghi danh vào lịch sử điện ảnh. Bộ phim ra mắt năm 1977 kể về cuộc chiến giữa các thế lực trong dải ngân hà, có những nhân vật thuộc đủ các hành tinh khác nhau mặc trang phục viễn tưởng, chiến đấu với những thanh gươm thần bắn ra tia lửa thần lực, trên phông nền bối cảnh sâu thẳm của các hành tinh. Tác phẩm ăn khách phòng vé lớn và trở thành nguồn cảm hứng cho hàng loạt tác phẩm tiếp theo áp dụng công nghệ CGI.

Sau Star Wars, phim TRON (1982) là tác phẩm đầu tiên áp dụng công nghệ đồ họa 3 chiều (3D) nhưng quá mới mẻ và thất thu phòng vé, bị giới chuyên môn đánh giá thấp bởi không nhận diện hết tiềm năng của thứ công nghệ đi trước thời đại. Thập kỷ 1980 cũng chứng kiến hàng loạt siêu phẩm viễn tưởng dùng CGI như loạt Kẻ Hủy Diệt (Terminator) trong đó nhân vật Kẻ Hủy Diệt có thể biến hình trước con mắt kinh ngạc của người xem.

Năm 1993, Steven Spielberg nâng tầm kỹ xảo điện ảnh khi lần đầu tiên tạo ra một nhân vật ảo sống động – những con khủng long thật tới mức gây khiếp đảm trong phim Công viên kỷ Jura (Jurassic Park). Siêu phẩm áp dụng công nghệ vi tính chân thực cuối cùng không thể không nhắc đến của thập kỷ 1990 là Ma Trận (The Matrix) – phim đầu tiên dùng hiệu ứng vi tính để mô tả chậm chạp cho người xem nhìn thấy bằng mắt thường cảnh một viên đạn đang bay.

Quái vật Gollum chân thực trong phim “Chúa Nhẫn” được tạo hoàn toàn bằng công nghệ đồ họa vi tính.

Điện ảnh của thế kỷ 21 chứng kiến sự thống trị của công nghệ CGI với hàng loạt bom tấn lần lượt đột phá ranh giới điện ảnh. Loạt Chúa Nhẫn (The Lord of the Rings) bắt đầu từ năm 2001 lần đầu tiên dùng trí thông minh nhân tạo, công nghệ số hóa để sản sinh ra nhân vật ảo hoàn toàn, sắc nét không khác người thật – Quái vật Gollum. Ekip học hỏi kỹ thuật 3D từ phim TRON của Chúa Nhẫn đã nhận được giải Oscar vinh danh “Kỹ xảo hình ảnh xuất sắc” và hơn 200 đề cử cùng giải thưởng lớn nhỏ khác.

Năm 2004, bộ phim The Polar Express đã mở rộng biên giới CGI hơn khi trở thành phim đầu tiên áp dụng công nghệ mô phỏng động tác động vật (motion capture) cho toàn bộ dàn diễn viên trong phim. Năm 2009, Avatar đánh dấu sự trưởng thành của công nghệ đồ họa vi tính và mô phỏng động tác động vật với nhân vật người hóa thành thế thân. Năm 2011, bộ phim Hành tinh khỉ (Rise of the planet of the Apes) khiến người xem ngỡ ngàng khi cho thấy những nhân vật khỉ có thể diễn xuất chân thực trên màn ảnh. Bộ phim sử dụng diễn viên người thật đóng, sau đó thu từng cử động vi mô để tái tạo bằng máy tính, sau đó làm mềm hóa để biến thành chuyển động của khỉ.

Công nghệ xử lý hình ảnh trong điện ảnh đã thực sự trưởng thành. “Hiếm người xem có thể ý thức được công nghệ vi tính được dùng trong phim bây giờ. Chúng tôi đã đạt đến độ nhân vật ảo giống gần như 100% người thật”, chuyên gia hiệu ứng hình ảnh Hollywood – Darren Hendler, nói.

Liệu ngôi sao màn ảnh có diệt vong?

Có rất nhiều lý do để điện ảnh áp dụng công nghệ số. Người ta có thể tạo ra một nhân vật không có thật. Tài chính cũng là lý do để dùng công nghệ số. Giáo sư Nadia Magnenat Thalmann – người có 30 năm kinh nghiệm nghiên cứu về công nghệ trên phim, nói với Telegraph: “Một số phim tốn ít tiền hơn khi dùng công nghệ số thay vì sao thật. Quá trình diễn xuất có thể tự động hóa, như thế rẻ hơn và các diễn viên hạng hai có thể bị thay thế bởi phiên bản số hóa”.

Theo chuyên gia Hendler, một số ngôi sao giờ đây chào đón công nghệ CGI và đã bắt đầu cho phép tích trữ ngân hàng dữ liệu hình ảnh về bản thân. “Họ sẽ dùng được hình ảnh lúc trẻ của họ sau này cho phim. Tom Cruise từng quét ngân hàng dữ liệu của bản thân và mang về nhà tích trữ”. Nhà máy sản xuất đèn LED

Các diễn viên già dặn giờ đây còn kiểm soát cả ngân hàng dữ liệu số về mình, và muốn hình ảnh của mình trên màn ảnh ra sao. Tài tử Brad Pitt có thể đảo ngược quá trình lão hóa trên màn ảnh trong phim The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (2008) khi công nghệ vi tính lấy hình thời trẻ của anh vào phim đầy sắc nét. Việc tài tử quá cố Paul Walker được tái tạo lên hình sau khi qua đời lúc phim đang quay dở khiến công chúng toàn cầu ngạc nhiên bởi mức độ tinh vi và hiện đại của công nghệ ngày nay.

Chính việc sử dụng công nghệ vi tính để tạo ra những diễn viên ảo trên màn bạc lại khiến diễn viên thật có nguy cơ trở nên không cần thiết. “Xu hướng tới đây của điện ảnh sẽ là khiến cho nhân vật ảo nhận thức và tương tác được với môi trường xung quanh như người thật”, giáo sư Magnenat Thalmann nói. Nếu điều này thành công, một ngày không xa, các nhà làm phim sẽ có thể tạo ra nhân vật ảo làm việc dưới sự chỉ đạo của họ.

Điều may mắn với cộng đồng diễn viên là, công nghệ này chưa thể đạt được. “Tôi tin rằng, những diễn viên đỉnh cao vẫn đang hưởng thụ thời hoàng kim. Bởi vì, không diễn viên ảo nào có thể thay thế được tư duy và việc diễn xuất của người thật”, Thalmann nói. Còn Hendler chia sẻ, bất kỳ diễn viên ảo nào cũng trở nên vô dụng nếu không có một diễn viên thật biểu diễn trước. “Điều đó có nghĩa, người ta ngày càng dựa dẫm nhiều hơn vào diễn viên người thật để sáng tạo ra những chuyển động có hồn người và tin được. Dù là công nghệ đồ họa gì, chúng ta cũng vẫn bắt chuyển động của con người trước nhất. Chúng ta không thể tạo nó ra từ không khí”
