Chapter Seventy-Five: Best Director... It's OK!(5/5)

"Thinking about the Oscars so soon?"

Xiao Lizi nodded: "Harvey's strategy is like this: start from the Cannes Film Festival, go all the way down the major art film festivals, accumulate enough reputation, and then hit the Oscars." ”

Shen Mengxi sighed with emotion: "Our "Hunting" is the same, it seems that everyone thinks the same. ”

"Since he's going to win the Oscars, he definitely wants to make a difference at Cannes. ”

"Robert De Niro doesn't have a good relationship with him, does he?"

Xiao Lizi frowned: "It's still a little related, Robert has been busy with the Tribeca Film Festival in recent years, and you also know that the most important thing in running a film festival is good movies, and Harvey can dig up a lot of good masterpieces every year... So, his relationship with Harvey is okay!"

It's true, Harvey is the most disgusting scumbag in Hollywood and even the world, but his "Miramax" and "Weinstein" films have always been excellent.

In the '90s, as he grew older, Robert De Niro slowly began to take a back seat. More often, he did odd jobs in the crew, played supporting roles, and even became a master of acting in 7 plays in 1 year...

De Niro is the co-founder of the Tribeca Film Festival, which was originally founded to revitalize cultural life in New York's Manhattan neighborhood after 9/11. By establishing a film festival, we will foster the development of small-budget independent films.

"Green Hat" starring Liao Fan and "Life and Death" directed by Li Shaohong have all won awards here.

His intersection with Harvey "The Happiness Line Behind the Dark Clouds"...

Produced by Weinstein Pictures, Harvey is the producer!

"Don't worry about that, our PR work is ahead of him. ”

Indeed, how can the relationship between Gaumont Pictures and the French Ministry of Culture be influenced by Enstein Films?

The cooperation between Gaomeng Pictures and Mengxi Company is to say that the two film companies make movies together, and to say that it is the cultural exchange between the two countries!

At least this time in Cannes, the PR work of "Hunting" is ahead of the curve.

......

In the mainland, there are not many reports about this Cannes.

In addition to the opening ceremony, Fan Biscuit, Li Lianhua, Liu Yifei, Yang Xiaomi, and other newspapers on the red carpet were scattered all over the Internet, and of course there were some scaring words, for example, Zhang Ziyi said, 'For me, I will only walk the red carpet if I have works.' It's good for others to go, it's lively!" also said that he didn't need brand sponsorship to make an appearance, saying: "I don't need this kind of opportunity!"

I completely forgot my state of mind when I wore a belly pocket at the Berlin Film Festival...

The domestic media reported that 'Zhang Ziyi is wearing a slap and a big red belly pocket, and her figure is proud to stand at the Berlin Film Festival', what is the difference between this and Fan Biscuit wearing a dragon robe?

Isn't it all about eyeballs!

And this chain of contempt?

The media likes to hype these, except because readers are interested, the main people have nothing to report, tell you that this year's Cannes Film Festival has Israeli directors: Joseph Star's "Footnote", Japanese director Takashi Miike's "One Life", how many of these two directors do you know?

Many people probably don't know that "Parasite" won the Cannes Palme d'Or first and then the Oscar...

The crazy Oscar is only the American Film Festival, and "Parasite" also won Cannes!

Two of the highest awards in global cinema!

What do you have to say?

Therefore, the correct way to complain should be:

The Oscars are a business after all, and their authority can be large or small.

A movie is not like a figurative commodity, which can be distinguished by comparing parameters, some people think the movie is good, some people think it is bad, so in order to satisfy the majority of people, they adopt a voting mechanism such as the preferential voting system.

I won't go into this mechanism, but I just say that the result is that through this mechanism, the selected movies are not good or bad choices that most people think are not good, and they are not so good or bad. So internationally recognized... That's it, it's the Oscars who pulled this movie up, and it's really not how awesome this movie is!

Don't think that the Oscars are more authoritative and hanging, just watch movies, satisfy yourself, be confident, I think "Shanghai Fortress" is good, it's okay, movies are for entertainment in the final analysis, just be happy

If you don't mention "Shanghai Fortress", I might believe it...

Alas, a Korean movie directly pulled down the Oscars, and the United States did this, which made it really difficult for those of us who write entertainment!

America, can't you be willing to be a little brother?

Pulling it back, the only thing that can be reported at this Cannes is "Hunting" and Shen Mengxi.

However, Shen Mengxi's influence on passers-by is just like that...

He is not a person in front of the scene, and the only movie that has met the audience so far is "Manchester by the Sea" the year before last, the subject matter is related, the box office is not very high, and the popularity is not enough!

Of course, there are a lot of people who blow him ...

That's it!

It's not as good as the topic of Shen Mengxi's worth!

Therefore, whether "Hunting" can win the Palme d'Or or not, except for individual fans and fans, no one really cares.

......

"Thank you Cannes, tonight is worth remembering!"

"I'm sorry......"

Returning to his seat, Leonardo showed an apologetic smile to Shen Mengxi: "The possibility of letting you get the Palme d'Or become smaller." ”

"But it's not impossible, is it?"

Shen Mengxi forcibly suppressed his unhappy mood and jokingly replied.

There is a possibility of hair!

The crew of "The Tree of Life" was also at the closing ceremony...

Now that the awards have been awarded, there is only the best director and the Palme d'Or...

The young lady grabbed his hand and stroked it carefully.

Shen Mengxi smiled and said, "It's okay, I don't care..."

Don't care?

"The Hunt" is probably the last film he made with a more serious narrative...

If you don't get the Palme d'Or, you must have regrets.

But that's how life is.

"Best Director..."Hunting", Shen Mengxi!"

The guest of honor on the stage was judge Shi Nansheng, and Shen Mengxi got up with a smile...

A Best Actor, a Best Director, is already very good.

Purely an honor, he has surpassed Wang Jiawei, who won a best director at Cannes, and Shen Mengxi has one more jury award than him!

"Congratulations!"

"Thank you..."

Shi Nansheng put the trophy in Shen Mengxi's hand, the latter gently shook it and smiled: "Cannes is really my blessed land, I was given two awards last time, and this time is the same..."

"I don't feel like I'm superior to my compatriots or any of the filmmakers in this auditorium. Because we all love movies, and it's this love that has given me an unparalleled experience of life. I don't even know who I could be without it. ”

"Thank you Leonardo, it's two movies, I think you can consider getting rid of Martin, and then we can always work together!"

"Finally, thank you to the judges, thank you to Cannes!"
