May 20, the day of departure.
Lyman packed his luggage and was about to go back to Cannes.
The only companions were Thomas and Hilary Swank.
Ryan originally wanted to follow, but this product had already gone back for a vacation last time. In addition to the busy company's business, Lehman went away again, and it lacked managerial staff as a last resort, so he had to stay to watch ”home”.It is estimated that I am drinking bitter coffee in the office, listening to work, and signing funds.
As for why only the leading actress followed.
It was because this trip was not a big deal, and Elder Eastwood had already gone to Cannes early.
The girl was very happy to accept Lehman's invitation because she couldn't get a job and was in a boring time.
As for the things that need to be prepared, except for a few changes of clothes, it is a copy of ”Million Dollar Baby”.
This is the final version of the movie. The soundtrack, narration, subtitles... are all slowly produced during the days of Lyman, Thomas and Ryan.
Of course, the copy disc is in the hands of the people at Warner, and they are also responsible for all matters related to the film screening.
At half past one in the afternoon, the three arrived at Paris International Airport by plane, and then arrived at their destination by car.
Arriving in Cannes, Lehmann felt very relaxed.
Everything in front of me is still so familiar.
Since he came here, he has been to Venice, has been to many cities in the United States, and has been to Australia, Canada, New Zealand and other places for shooting, but he has not had much feelings, only Cannes can give him a physical and mental feeling Comfortable.Anyway, it feels strange.
Full of intimacy.
When I got home, everything was the same as when I left.
This time of year is also the time when the tourists are the most.
It is lively, and most of the topics discussed by everyone are movies.
It can be said that the Cannes Film Festival has deeply affected this seaside town.Go deep into the culture and blood of the city.
There has never been a place that can attract so many tourists with a name.
People from all over the world gathered here in dense numbers.
What's funny is that everyone rushed here with their love and piety for the movie. They didn't know that in the eyes of some people, it was just a business.
After all, Cannes said that the selection is fair, but there are generally only two types of people who can participate.
One is the direct line cultivated in Cannes, such as Lehmann.
The other is the work of a newcomer or a powerful film company. It is a different kind of direct line, or it depends on the relationship or network or its own influence.
In short, there is no way, no matter how good the quality of the film, no matter how novel the performance is, it is difficult to get the opportunity to participate in the exhibition after a lifetime.It's the fact that the stubborn group of judges in Berlin is still a little bit likely to praise a ”nothing” filmmaker.
After all, Cannes is too valuable now.
In terms of data alone, there are more than 1,300 movies registered this year, and they may eventually enter the main unit, and no more than 60 will compete for the grand prize, including scrap awards such as film critics and media reviews.
The organizers of Cannes like to keep their attention.
To have attention, a big director and a big production are naturally essential.This is also the reason why Cannes compromised Hollywood. You see, the Berlin Film Festival didn't just let it go. In recent years, award-winning works will be forgotten without even a sound.
On the other hand, Cannes and Oscar, one by one, will create momentum, and this has the current scenery.
So, it’s ugly. The number of exhibitors was actually set by default from the beginning. Before the film festival came, it had been divided up by people in need. Occasionally, it was left a little bit, and it was recommended by local directors or seniors The newcomer, how can there be other opportunities to come forward?
