Hollywood Lover

Austin was a little disappointed. As soon as he entered the screening hall, he didn't know where the studio of "The Tuner" was!

There is no movie poster, no movie image, no movie trailer, no beauty reception, this studio is small and hidden, and it took me sweating to find it. It is simply too dumbfounding.

Just like that on your own movie? There is no publicity, is it too irresponsible? After Austin walked into the studio, he sat down on the chair, put his top hat aside, let his steaming half-bald forehead take a good breath, thought contemptuously, and then called "Tuner" heavily. A fork!

Looking around, apart from himself, a yellow man and a black man, there was no audience, Austin sneered in his heart, and almost gave "The Tuner" a death sentence.

If Austin knew that the yellow race was the director, and the black man was the director's friend, he would probably laugh out loud, with cramp all over his face, and even his dentures would fly away from laughter.

Looking at his watch, Austin was about to get up and leave, but another movie he cared about in time had already started, and it was too late, and the lights in the studio had dimmed, so the movie he was concerned about had already started. Deciding that "The Tuner", which was a bad movie, was about to start, he resisted the urge to leave and continued to sit without any difficulty.

The screen was brightly lit up, and "The Tuner" finally lifted the veil, revealing its shocking beauty to the world!

In the soothing love of a poet, a piano appears on the screen, and the strings rise and fall during playing. It can be seen that this is an old-fashioned piano that has been maintained in good condition.

"I rarely play in front of people, unless it's a special occasion or audience, like tonight, who is this man? I don't know."

With deep fear, helplessness, and even despair, the voiceover sounded, an old man sitting motionless on the sofa, a pair of pianists stepping on the piano soft pedal, and only wearing a pair of underwear appeared on the screen.

"I can't even see him, I'm blind."

When Austin, who was originally sitting on a chair, was as immobile as a mountain, he suddenly sat up straight when he heard this sentence, as if he couldn't believe his ears, and became uneasy. As the top film critic in France, he keenly Notice the oddity in this voiceover.

What? blind? If the piano player was blind, how could he notice the man? What are you talking about, who is this man? I don't know him?

Could it be that the director made the stupidest mistake in the first scene, so absurd and inconsistent?

It shouldn't be so low level, even worse than a movie lover, right?

Austin thought to himself, and was hooked by the voice-over like a sharp hook. He put away his casual look and started to look at it seriously.

Naked, the pianist played the piano, his face was calm, but with an indescribable weirdness. Behind him stood a tall, burly man, and that lonely, extremely dim desk lamp.

The whole picture is very depressing, as if it indicates that something terrible is happening!

"Besides, it's not for him, but for the people behind me."

As soon as the voice-over was finished, there was an unusually loud sound, which seemed to be the sound of closing a door, or something else.

"Tuner!" Such words appeared on the huge subtitles, and Austin, who was a little confused, was even more confused.

What kind of shit is this inexplicable prelude talking about?

The story unfolds slowly. A young man who is regarded as a genius and has a bright future fails in the piano competition, and his life suddenly loses its color. Decadent, he loses his lover, confidence, and courage to live.

But, soon, he bounced back and became a piano tuner.

The conversation with the boss at the pizzeria finally allowed Austin to grasp a clue. The story of the Taj Mahal made him fall into deep thought, and he secretly praised one in his heart.

"Blind tuner, my ears are considered unrivaled, tips are higher, people are friendlier, less worrying, I know things that no one else knows."

On the screen, when pretending to be a blind person to tune, an old man weeping sadly for his dead lover, a woman lamenting her unlucky marriage, and a man walking up and down in front of him wearing only underwear.

There was even a naked girl dancing wildly to the sound of the blind man's piano!

Amidst the elegant piano sound, the girl ended the dance and sent a passionate kiss. Orlando frowned slightly, and suddenly smiled strangely. He was so self-satisfied, full of pride that no one would notice that the trick had succeeded.

Austin gradually changed his opinion. This 13-minute short film made him unable to sit still any longer. He writhed on the chair. He tried to use his years of experience to judge the middle part and the first part of the film. However, he found sadly that the crown of his top ten film critics did not make him any different from ordinary movie fans. Nose, very contemptuous, like a movie fan who enters the movie theater with popcorn but no brains, can only follow the movie and look down, but can't come up with any unique opinions.

Is this still me? Austin asked himself in a leisurely way.

The movie continues, entering the most intense later stage of the conflict, and it is also the end when all the mysteries are completely revealed.

"Where's the piano?"

"Wait a minute, I'll take you there. No, no, don't go over there!"

On the screen, Orlando was wearing sunglasses. He fumbled for the wall and walked towards the room in a panic because of waiting, but stepped on something, slipped and fell to the ground with a plop.

"What is this, what is this?" Orlando tried his best to pretend to be blind, and struggled to get up from the ground, his body was already covered with an unknown liquid.

The soundtrack of the movie suddenly became dignified and dull at this moment, and it was no longer as cheerful as before. Austin could not help but sit up straight, and his eyes widened.

He realized that the biggest turning point of this movie was coming!

In a hurry, Orlando was helped up by Andy with all his might. On the camera, the two walked by with his arms, but suddenly a dead old man slumped on the sofa appeared in the picture!

The right side of his head was already covered with blood stains, and the flying blood soaked his clothes. Everything looked so horrifying and terrifying!

This made Austin open his mouth in surprise, and stood up straight away. After comparing in his mind, he realized that the old man who sat on the sofa and enjoyed the music at the beginning of the movie was already a dead man!

"I didn't expect you to come here. We are renovating here, and I knocked over the paint."

On the camera, half of the bloody cheek of the dead old man, Andy, who is half supporting and half threatening, and the unlucky "blind" tuner Orlando appear together, which makes the whole story turn around and be different.

Orlando woke up from Andy's increasingly sharp gaze and coldness, and unbuttoned his clothes, taking off only a pair of underwear.

"Oh God, he's the murderer, damn it, why don't you run!" Austin put his hands on his forehead, he was completely caught up in what happened to Orlando, and he clenched his fists hard, fearing for Orlando in the play .

Throughout the shot, there is Andy's skeptical face, looking at all this indifferently, and even going one step further, taking off Orlando's sunglasses with the excuse that his glasses are dirty, staring into his eyes, stared blankly.

This close-up of the expression made people breathless. Austin seemed to be the tuner himself, his eyes were motionless as if being watched by a murderer, and he pressed the handle of the seat tightly with his hands, squeezing himself alive pain!

"Calm down, calm down, he didn't notice at all, you behaved so naturally, you could win an Oscar." Orlando's voice-over sounded, cheering himself up in despair.

Shocking blood stains, frightened tune, quickly turned his head to look at the dead on the sofa.

"Who is that man on the sofa, his father? Didn't he say to give me his father's clothes? Why haven't you come here yet. No no, calm down, calm down, maybe he's washing my clothes, that's fine , isn’t it? I’ll get dressed, tune the piano, and leave!”

The whole shot is of Orlando's expressionless face, and the lonely lamp behind him, the language of the whole shot becomes oppressive and heavy, making people uncontrollably frightened and start to worry about Orlando's fate that he doesn't know what to do.
