Chapter 99: Popular
After the screening of "Moon", it was not early, and Chen Hao and his party went back to the hotel.
Chen Hao, who came to his room, looked at Gao Yuanyuan with a smile and asked, "It's a long night, do you want to talk to someone about life?"
Gao Yuanyuan's face was slightly red, and she glanced at Chen Hao and said, "After a day on the plane, it's not good to rest!"
Chen Hao made a toned posture when he heard this, "Beauty, you may not know much about my strong body, but I am ......"
"Don't listen, don't listen!" Gao Yuanyuan ran into her room directly with her ears covered, not giving Chen Hao a chance to take advantage of her tongue at all.
Seeing this, Chen Hao could only smile and shake his head, and went into his room to rest.
The next day, when Chen Hao was having breakfast, he specially found a few newspapers to see what the European media said about "Moon".
As one of the three major in Europe, the Cannes International Film Festival is naturally the focus of European entertainment media during its event, and many European countries have sent reporters here, and they naturally have their own comments on the film.
"An inexplicable loneliness
The rigorous sci-fi logic of the clone makes the word loneliness so memorable in the movie "Moon", and watching this movie requires strong patience and not afraid of tangled thinking.
It brings me back to that old topic, how exactly does human self-consciousness work?
If consciousness can really be cloned at will like the body, how can we keep a clear mind?
The brain-burning suspense has also become the node of this work to vent emotions, and as the only actor in this work, the movie is performed by Xu's one-man show, an insoluble loneliness, and uses humanistic ethics to create an excellent suspense perception. ”
--- French Cinémathèque
"No memory is the loneliest
It's really a very sad and sad film.
It's really a very lonely and lonely film.
It's a very good, beautiful film.
Sci-fi films are all shot so elegantly.
At the end of the movie, I silently watched the subtitles, thinking about the Xu who stayed on the moon, the Xu who returned to the earth, and recalled Xu's bit by bit from the beginning, swallowing himself like an ocean, and finally couldn't make a sound.
What if one day you find that your memories are all fake, whether beautiful or painful, and that you are just a clone of the memories of yourself that has copied the real one?
The painful thing is that the only memory that really belongs to me is the three years I lived with the robot Robert on the moon. It turns out that everything that you have and what you are thinking about is fake.
He sat on the rover and looked at the earth outside the car, the blue planet was so far away and so indifferent.
It turned out that it was never my home.
Xu, who went to Earth, watched the moon slowly move away, and I suddenly couldn't stop crying.
What I miss the most is the Xu and Robert the robot who stayed, the Robert who was labeled "kick me" on his butt.
He has accompanied countless Xu, he knows everything about Xu, he always says "I just want to help you!", he says that he can't help them with things other than work, but he helps Xu leave.
His voice was emotionless, but it was the true memories and warmth of all Xu on the planet.
When I wrote this article, my mind was full of Xu and Robert's loneliness, and I couldn't stop crying.
I'm slowly coming to know how unforgettable this film is!"

"Cinema Handbook" and "See & Sound" are both well-known film magazines in Europe and abroad, and their influence is extraordinary in Europe.
And "Moon" can be featured in these two magazines, which shows that "Moon" is indeed very popular with film critics.
Through the appreciation of the two magazines, as well as the popularity of the film at its screening, it can be seen that "Moon" has become one of the popular films of this year's Cannes Film Festival.
In addition to "The Moon", Roman Polanski's "The Pianist" is also highly acclaimed, and even more influential than "The Moon".
Roman Polanski is a "master of sin" who is good at digging into the evil of human nature, and his directing ability is recognized.
Although he has abused girls, he is now unable to set foot in the United States.
But there is no doubt about the excellence of "The Pianist", this is the final winner of the Palme d'Or, and it was also nominated for the Oscar for Best Picture, and Roman Polanski won the Oscar for Best Director!
The Pianist is undoubtedly the number one hit at this year's Cannes!
In addition, the Finnish film "A Man Without a Past", South Korea's Lim Kwon-taek's "Drunken Painting Fairy" and the United States' "Confused Love" were also well received.
Judging from the current media forecasts, "The Pianist" is outstanding, "The Moon", "A Man Without a Past", "Drunken Painting Fairy" and "Confused Love" are equal, ranking second class!
The performance of Jia Zhangke's "Ren Yao", which is also from China, is somewhat different from "Moon", which greatly surprised the expectations of the Chinese media who came to Cannes.
Jia Zhangke can be regarded as a frequent visitor to Cannes, and his age and ability are better than Chen Hao, but the result is the opposite.
Either way, it's a good thing that "Moon" has been so well received.
As a Chinese, I am naturally willing to see Chinese films welcomed and loved in Cannes, France, which is a sense of national pride and identity from the heart.
In addition to being happy, the Chinese media also translated the reports of the European media back to China as quickly as possible, so that the domestic media could grasp the first-hand information as soon as possible.
"The president of the jury of the Cannes International Film Festival favors the Chinese-language film "Moon"!" --- New Wolf Entertainment
"'Moon' was well received in Cannes and became one of the most popular films!" --- Sohu Entertainment reported
"The score of "Moon" ranks among the top of all the shortlisted films in Cannes, and it is very likely to win the award!" --- CCAV6
......
The media's coverage of "Moon's" performance in Cannes can be described as a stone that has stirred up a thousand waves.
Most people didn't expect that the young Chen Hao's second film would attract such attention and praise in Cannes, is this the so-called genius director?
However, Chinese films can win Cannes, which everyone likes to see, so the media and the Internet are one-sided support and praise.
Book friend 090417010642238: I hope that "Moon" can win glory for the country and come back with a big prize!
Wind and rain crimson: I wish "Moon" a glorious return!
China Entertainment Reporter: Good "Moon", come on!
......
Of course, it is not without unhappiness.
For example, Feng Cannon, as a person who has already torn his face with Chen Hao, he naturally doesn't want to see Chen Hao good.
There is also Lu Chuan, the media compares him with Chen Hao, but now it seems that Chen Hao is a little fierce, and he can set off waves in Cannes.
What worries Lu Chong even more is that the popularity of "Moon" in Cannes will not affect the selection results of the Imperial Capital University Student Film Festival.
Although it was "Comet" that was selected, it was also filmed by Chen Hao, and more than two-thirds of the judges of the Imperial Capital University Student Film Festival are college students, who are most vulnerable to the influence of national pride.
In case of being stimulated by the news of Cannes, maybe he will be biased towards Chen Hao, which is the last thing Lu Chuan wants to see.
At the same time, Berner and Huaying are overjoyed, these news are very good for the release of "Moon", and they can only continue to sigh that Chen Hao is really powerful and has a bright future!
