Chapter 619 (1/2)
After the film screening, Yingyi entertainment people went to have a big meal to celebrate.
No matter whether the film can finally win the prize or not, we will be very happy to be praised at the Cannes Film Festival. The directors and stars are for the first time in their lives.
LAN jieying's red mission has been completed by 90%. As long as the box office of the film is high enough when it is released in China, Liang Kun estimates that it can be completed.
LAN jieying is very excited and in a happy mood. She never thought that she could participate in the International Film Festival one day and walk the red carpet dressed up. At that time in 2000, she couldn't get a role in a TV play in Xiangjiang.
She especially thanked Liang Kun for this. She didn't expect that a big star like Liang Kun would be willing to tailor a script for supporting actors like her and Li Jiasheng. Miraculously, Liang Kun made Yingyi entertainment popular and helped her, a desperate person, out of the trough.
In return for reciprocity, Liang Kun and Andy Lau also supported the other two films.
Ang Lee's new film ”making Woodstock” has a good response and a slightly worse reputation than ”invisible guests”.
”Making Woodstock” is shot for the award. It is impossible to have many popular themes at the box office. It is inevitable to lose money on the street. Based on his memoirs, the film describes the establishment of the Woodstock Music Festival in 1969 by Eliot Tiber, an American gay writer and designer in the 1960s.
This is a light comedy with smooth story, simple character relationship and light rhythm. However, only a small circle of people praised Ang Lee's good shooting, and most of the audience would not go to the cinema. No way, ordinary people, who cares what Woodstock Festival is?
Du Qifeng's revenge is probably ruined. The film has obvious shortcomings. After watching it, it feels very dull. The plot is not bad, but there are no highlights. Movies and ”gunfire” and ”exile” are not as good as the above two, and those two are only good reputation and miserable at the box office.
There is a serious problem in the casting of this film, starring Johnny Halliday, a rock star known as ”French Elvis Presley”. This man's eyes are too small. They are bigger than shanxingjian, bigger than Tony and Jay Chou. And his eyes are not only small, but also a little crooked.
Male number two is Huang Qiusheng, plus Lin Jiadong and Lin Xue... The appearance of the actor in this film has not been saved at all.
The film is a bit unlike the film, like the men's clothing show in autumn and winter. But these people don't have a good figure. It's a failed fashion show. The gunfight scene is quite literary and artistic. People who have recently seen ”chase and kill quickly” are easy to fall asleep after watching this film.
A group of filmmakers chatted, and everyone thought that ”invisible guests” had a higher chance of winning the prize.
Liang Kun's four friends also went to see other films that attracted attention and received high praise. After watching them, they said they were boring.
The films at Cannes Film Festival are basically all literary and artistic. Liang Kun didn't go to see them and knew he couldn't watch them. The invisible guest, as a suspense drama, looks very different here and attracts many audiences. Everyone who watched it said it was good.
To put it bluntly, this is still a commercial film with box office potential.
In the parallel world, the original Spanish film was only released as the opening film at the Spanish film festival and did not participate in other film festivals, so it did not win international awards. It is the uncrowned king in the eyes of many viewers, introduced by various countries and remade by Italy.
Today, the film shines in Cannes.
Cannes Film Festival is divided into ”main competition unit” and ”a concern unit”. There are few awards and the gold content is very high.
The awards mainly include Best Film Golden Palm Award, best director award, best screenwriter award, best actor award, best actress award, jury award, jury award and best short film award.
Cannes does not distinguish between the best supporting actor and the best supporting actor. This is very personalized. As long as you win the award, you are the protagonist.
There is no nomination for ”best actor and actress” in class a film festival. It is said that every actor in the films of all main competition units may win the award. The award for best actor and actress is directly selected without nomination. Whether you play more or less, you are likely to win the best actor and actress.
This time, many Chinese films entered the main competition unit. ”Invisible guests”, ”revenge”, Lou Ye's ”a night intoxicated by the spring breeze”.
”A night intoxicated by the spring breeze” is a film about homosexuality and a group of straight men play gay. It's really difficult for them. In order to win the prize, these people are fighting hard. We all know that it is easier to win the prize for making this kind of film.
Liang Kun stayed in Cannes until the grand prize was released. With the time in his dream, it would take more than a month.
He doesn't feel bored. In his dream, he can teach Teresa Palmer and Tang Yu to act, play music with Hamasaki, and travel around the world with sun Yizhen
The Golden Palm Award was won by the Austrian film white ribbon. The core is the children's resistance to patriarchy. Almost all families in the film have an extremely violent father. Extreme patriarchy led to the birth of youth groups to resist patriarchy and even develop into resistance to the whole social level. The black-and-white film is so serious and boring that it is unimaginable, but it is very meaningful.
The jury award was won by the prophet, French and Italian films.
”Invisible guest” also gained, and won the jury award together with the British film ”Aquarium”.
Liang Kun didn't watch the aquarium, but he knew it was big enough because there was a ”Dharma shark” in it.
The best director award was won by Philippine director brillant mandoza, and the film work kinari.
