Chapter 058: Dazzled

Woke up very early.

The sky was dark.

Maybe it's because of the time difference.

There is also a time difference between the east and west coasts

Staring blankly at the ceiling of the wooden house, I suddenly felt like I might have gone crazy.

Just over the weekend, I actually flew thousands of kilometers away from New Haven to a strange town, and lived in a bedroom provided by a boy who had only a few faces.

Moreover, the boy also has a girlfriend.

Well.

It's none of your business.

Perhaps, one day I heard the crazy guitar of a boy on a certain beach, and I always wanted to do something crazy.

If we don't go crazy, we'll be old.

Skiing for the first time yesterday afternoon.

Watching him rush from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain, Lisa, who also likes skiing, seems to have met an idol, screaming and explaining to her how good he is, and then rushes down as well.

Then, on the top of the hill are left two Jenny, who can only play snowboarding.

It's a shame.

Fortunately, there are two of them, and someone accompanies them.

I worked very hard to follow the study, and inevitably fell several times, and my body still hurts a little.

However, the excitement in my heart continued.

It's a pity that I'm going to leave in a hurry this afternoon.

There's still class tomorrow.

Moreover, I can't tell my parents about this, otherwise I will definitely be scolded to death, but I am a good girl, and I have persisted for many years.

I can only keep it in my heart silently.

I felt that it was already daylight, so I sat up carefully, picked up the watch on the bedside table and looked at it, 7:30.

The premiere of his film was 9 o'clock, so it must have been some time earlier.

I don't know if he's up or not.

Perhaps, I should go and prepare breakfast for everyone.

Well.

There must be no other thoughts.

I'm a good girl.

After getting dressed and washing, I tied my hair back up in front of the mirror.

You definitely have to untie your hat when you go out.

But.

He occasionally sneaks a peek at his own ponytail.

Scold.

It's exposed.

When I can't find out.

Without calling Lisa, she left the bedroom and came to the kitchen lightly.

Then he was taken aback, he was already busy in the kitchen, listening to him greet him, and hurriedly responded, as if he was going to do something bad and be caught.

Or pluck up the courage to come forward and help.

Janet and Lisa also got up quickly.

After breakfast, at 8:10 a.m., the group of four drove out of the resort apartment and to the Egyptian Cinema in the heart of Park City.

I did my homework in advance and knew that this was just a very small film festival, and it was not very popular. Looking at the more than 400-seat hall of the Egyptian theater, I was secretly worried. Yesterday, I noticed that the streets of Park City are not lively, and now it is even more morning, and on such a cold day, there are even fewer people willing to get up and watch a movie.

If there are too few people who come to watch the movie, it will be a bit embarrassing.

So I took the initiative to make a cameo as a volunteer, got a thick stack of film festival leaflets from the staff, and planned to distribute them outside the theater.

I'm pretty and should be able to attract a few more guys in.

Lisa and Janet walked out with a stack of flyers like her, Lisa had already made him an idol, and she was understandably a very enthusiastic person.

Janet surprised her.

At first glance, she is a pampered woman, but she is willing to do this, and it seems that she really loves him.

Then, I soon realized that my worries just now seemed to be a little unnecessary.

Since half past eight, people have been gathering in twos and threes towards the Egyptian cinema, and near nine o'clock, the queue waiting to watch the movie has been lined up more than ten meters outside the theater, but the news suddenly came from the ticket office that the tickets were sold out.

Standing on the side of the street and turning to look into the theater, the hall was crowded with people, and some people were questioning loudly.

A couple next to him also quarreled a few words, listening to the content, the two watched two movies yesterday, and the attendance rate was only two or three percent, so the boy thought about the card time to come, and he could still lie in bed for a while.

I didn't expect it to go in.

Looking at the time, it was about to be nine o'clock, and the screening was about to start, so I looked at Lisa and Janet a few times.

The theater hall is full of people, how can the three of you get in?

I can only bite the bullet and break in.

Explaining the situation to the staff they met, the three of them were let in, and there was a dissatisfied complaint behind them.

When you enter the screening room, you can see that it is full of people, and the sound of conversation gathers, buzzing, and is extremely lively.

Thinking of the words of the couple just now, I couldn't help but feel a little proud.

He's still the one who stands out from the rest.

With some trepidation, he came to the front row with Janet, but fortunately, he reserved a place for them, right next to him, three in a row.

Robert Redford was also seen sitting on the other side of him, talking happily.

Although she knew that Robert Redford was the founder of this film festival, she was still very surprised to see the other party, she liked last year's "Out of Africa" very much, and she specially bought a videotape.

Meryl Streep and Robert Redford.

Karen and Dennis.

himself and, he

Inexplicably a little substitution, inexplicably a little sad.

Sigh softly.

Janet sat down next to him, she sat down next to Janet, and Lisa giggled next to her, looking very excited.

Heartless guy.

Nine o'clock.

The lights in the screening room dimmed punctually.

It's a bit surprising, this is a film festival, there is no interaction at all? In a blink of an eye, I think that maybe it was placed after the movie was played, from 9 o'clock to 12 o'clock, but there were three hours.

The English poet Tยท A poem by S. Eliot: "We will not stop exploring, and the end of this quest will return to our starting point and let people know it for the first time." โ€

I still know Eliot, the Nobel Prize winner in literature. It's just that the other party's works have always been obscure, and she doesn't like it too much.

However, since he used it here, he still planned to think about it.

And then.

The sound of the pendulum, the rush of the second hand, the impatient music, and the screams of Lola as she erupted completely interrupted her attempts to stop and think, and all that remained in her mind was the figure running through the streets of Santa Monica, Los Angeles.

Red hair, blue tank top, green pants, big scalp shoes.

Her name is Lola.

Running Lola.

A completely subverted image.

A film that completely turns things upside down.

It's surprising, and suddenly I found out that the movie can still be shot like this, the original animation can be used like this, the original lens can be so sharp, and the original camera movement can be so tricky.

And the music.

And the picture.

It wasn't until the last shot that she recovered from a dreamlike trip and immediately looked forward to watching the film a second time.

In the blink of an eye, there was some regret.

In a short period of time, it is definitely impossible for me to see it a second time, unless this movie can be released in theaters.

Such an excellent movie will definitely be able to land in theaters.

She had no doubt about that.

It's just that she still knows some things in Hollywood, even if she is logged into theaters, such an alternative movie will definitely not be released on a large scale.

Well.

When the time comes, even if New Haven doesn't have it, New York will definitely have it.

Thinking a little distractedly, I didn't pay much attention to the subtitles slowly falling on the big screen, but the surrounding audience obviously began to whisper.

Didn't mind, didn't think much about it.

Anyway, the movie is over, and they will definitely enjoy this movie very much.

Then, Lisa next to her suddenly poked her: "Jenny, have you noticed?"

"Huh?"

"End credits," Lisa said, turning her head to look at her a few times, and said dissatisfiedly, "You are distracted by such a great movie?"

"I, of course not," she immediately shook her head weakly, arguing, "I'm just wondering when I'll see this movie again." โ€

"Okay," Lisa shrugged, but added, "Are you really not paying attention to the subtitles?"

Worried that Janet on the other side would hear it, he suggested that Lisa be quieter, and then he asked, "What's wrong?"

Lisa raised her hand and gestured, "A lot of names, Simon's name." โ€

Still a little confused.

Lisa said again with an obvious suspicion that she might be dazzled: "Producer, director, screenwriter, cinematography, lighting, soundtrack, set, editing, anyway, there are several others, all of them are Simon's own name." โ€

This time she finally understood.

But I also think that Lisa is likely to be dazzled.

Just as she was about to tease her a few words, all the subtitles fell, and the lights in the screening room came on again.

With the bright light, the originally dim discussion suddenly weakened a little. After a short pause, there was a round of applause.

More than ten seconds later, the staff set up chairs on the stage, Simon pulled Janet and Robert Redford onto the stage together, and the applause that had been weakened became enthusiastic again.

It wasn't until Robert Redford smiled and raised his hand to press it that the screening room gradually fell silent.

Subsequently, Robert Redford himself acted as the host, holding the microphone and said: "I promised everyone at the opening ceremony on Friday that you will never be disappointed after watching this movie just now." But if you still don't like the movie, you'll have to settle accounts with Simon. โ€

In the chuckle in the screening room, Robert teased very vaguely: "Of course, before you do this, you have to make sure that you can beat this kid next to me." Now, if there's anything you want to ask, you can raise your hand. โ€

Wow โ€“

Robert Redford's voice fell, and dozens of hands in the screening room were raised almost at the same time, and some people hesitated slightly, raised their hands halfway, and had to temporarily put them down to see the situation in front of them.

After a few glances from the audience, Robert Redford pointed to a bespectacled brown-haired woman sitting at the front.

The girl got up, habitually held her glasses, looked at Simon on the stage, and said, "Mr. Westeros, I'm Jane Trevor from Variety, and I'm honored to be able to watch such a novel anti-genre movie as "Lola Run". However, I have just counted, and there are at least ten or more positions in the list with your personal name on them, and although it is a bit presumptuous, I still find it hard to believe that these are all done by you yourself?"
