332 Chapter 331 Preparation (seeking subscription recommendation) (1/2)
May 24, sunny.
The people at Warner still helped the operation and convinced the judges of the selection.
After all, the audience and film critics have a good reputation, and you must not forget who has the right to vote.
Compared to Oscars, Cannes does not have so many rules, but the same needs to operate and build momentum.
Alas, it's the award chosen by the person anyway, and there must be a way of public relations.
Moreover, ”Million Dollar Baby” does have this qualification.
The popularity of the screening suppressed all the movie works that came to the exhibition.
This can't be ignored.
Moreover, in recent years, the French film industry has declined.
The compulsion in the entire European film circle does not appear to be as tall as in the past, let alone compare with the United States.
This has finally produced a well-known local filmmaker, no matter where he tends to be, there is no hesitation in holding a hand.
Then, a bunch of filmmakers really dared to support it.
Don't mention Luc Besson and take the lead.
The effect of this is that Lehmann, the director, was originally a direct line of Cannes, and has become a direct line of the direct line.
Good reputation and public relations have also brought 7 main competition nominations to ”Million Dollar Baby”.
Palme d'Or, best director, best screenplay, best actor, best actress, jury award and best photography.
For a time, it can be described as disdainful of all males, even ”Fahrenheit 911”, which was dominant at the beginning, was compared.Five nominations for the film, no best actress and best photography.
Facing such a privilege, Lehman didn't have the enthusiasm. He was thinking about his new film plan, and went out early in the morning.
The streets of Cannes are still very lively, it is just such a lively opportunity in a year.
Usually, there are some tourists in summer and autumn, but not many.
After all, this place is really small, and there are no particularly famous tourist attractions, so it's not very attractive to outsiders.
Lehman walked east around the Palais des Cinemas, and not far away, he arrived at the Europa Pictures office in Cannes.
The door face was small and the space was not large, so I barely rented a floor for the convenience of Europa's distribution department, but I didn't need to pay attention to it.
”Sir, are you okay?”
There was a staff member sitting in the door, watching Lehman walk in, but he didn't recognize it at all. Of course, it is normal not to pay attention to the main creative behind the scenes.
”I have an appointment.”
As he was talking, a man walked out from inside.
Tall, not handsome, but has its own temperament.
”Director Lyman?”
He was still talking to the staff at the door, and a voice suddenly came from the side.
Jean-Renault waved his hand, ”Why are you here?”
Well, the adventure photographer who contributed to the protagonist’s magazine in ”Day Dreamer” found Sean Penn as a guest in the original version, but Lyman didn’t know Sean Penn, and instead felt that an actor like Jean-Renault came as a guest It would be more interesting, so I called Luc Besson to make an appointment.
He talked about this as soon as he arrived in Cannes, but it was delayed until now because of the inconvenience of Jean-Renault's itinerary.
As soon as he said this, Lehman hadn't made any response yet, but the staff on the side was surprised.
There is quite a kind: Ah, the feeling of seeing a real person.
In terms of performance, he has won the French box office championship twice in a row, which is indeed admirable by practitioners.
”Hello, I love watching your movies, ”Bad Guy” and the recently screened ”Million Dollar Baby”. I like it very much. I watched it back and forth several times.”
The young man was very pleasantly surprised. He is a Maasai and has been transferred to this office for less than six months.
”Um, hello.”
The two talked casually, and Lehmann took Jean-Reynolds outside to speak.
