【Anti-theft Sticker Chapter】

"I'm trying to buy a film by New Zealand director Jane Campion called Sweet Sister, which is a dark comedy with a small set that explores themes of family dysfunction and women's sexual psychology. However, the director was very thoughtful about the soundtrack and composition of the film. The most important thing is that this film is very well completed, the story is very smooth, and even audiences who are not interested in literary films will not feel bored during the viewing process. ”

Hilltop villa in the Le Cane district.

When Ella Deutchman and Robert Rem arrived, they entered the dining room and chatted about the recent events over lunch.

As soon as the main competition unit of this Cannes Film Festival was confirmed, Simon got the film list as soon as possible. In addition to "My Left Foot" and "Sex, Lies, and Videotapes", Simon's other two films are Giuseppe Tornatore's "Cinema Paradiso" and Jane Campion's "Sweet Sister".

Needless to say, "Cinema Paradiso" is the 1990 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film in the original time and space.

As for "Sweet Sister", Simon has not seen this movie, he has his eye on the director of this film, Jane Campion, and another film directed by Campion, "Piano Love", is one of Simon's favorite films, of course, this original film released in 1993 has not yet appeared.

For this film festival, Simon's plan is to let Ella Deutchman play freely first, and then decide whether to intervene after seeing the results.

At this time, hearing that Deutchman also took a fancy to Jane Campion's film, Simon was very satisfied, especially the consideration of the commerciality of the film in Deutchman's words. Treating literary films as commercial films is the business philosophy that Simon has been instilling in Deutschman.

Inside the restaurant.

Simon listened to what Deutchman had to say and asked, "Can I get a copy?" I'll see it for myself in the next few days. ”

Ella Deutchman thought for a moment and nodded, "I'll try, it should be fine"

The servant served a dish to the people again.

Everyone paused for a moment, Simon picked up the tableware and tasted the red wine stewed beef in front of him, and asked, "In addition to "Sweet Sister", are there any other good films?"

"Bertrand Brier's Overly Beautiful, Giuseppe Tornatore's Cinema Paradiso and Denis Arconte's Jesus of Montreal are among the award favourites, as well as our My Left Foot and Colombia's Sex, Lies and Videotape. It's just that many studios in North America are eyeing Cannes this year, especially the films we fancie. So, I'm not sure if I'll get these movies. ”

Simon's 1987 "Lola Run" won the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival and became the box office champion of the year, and "Vulgar" in 1988 won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, almost called the crown of the year. Although the box office success of these two films is not directly related to the corresponding film festivals, they have successfully aroused the attention of film studios around the world to the award-winning films of the festival.

Daenerys Entertainment's series of box office explosions last year also made the whole of Hollywood keep an eye on the studio's every move. This kind of staring has caused Daenerys Entertainment to miss out on many projects, including "Sex, Lies, and Videotapes," but it's clearly not over yet.

After thinking about it for a moment, Simon said: "Ella, if you can't get the film, you can try to sign some directors in advance for the next film, it should be easier." ”

Ella Deutchman agreed, adding: "I've always used that 'ultimatum' strategy, and Gordon Pictures won't easily fight price wars with other studios." ”

Simon nodded, looked at Robert Rehm, and asked, "Bob, where are you?"

"I've been working with some studios in Eastern Europe these days, and the last two years have been a bit turbulent, but at the same time the film market has been deregulated," said Robert Rehm, who seemed to have no intention of complaining: "Simon, I've been on more international trips in the past few months than I've done in the last ten years, and I'm leaving Cannes next week and flying to Brazil right away, and there's probably no studio in Hollywood that is busier than me." ”

Simon glanced at Rem and said with a smile: "The company is in the stage of rapid expansion, not everyone is the same, just be busy for the past two years." However, if you are not satisfied with the company's business jet, I can approve the lease of a better one. ”

Robert Rem echoed and laughed, a little disappointed in his heart, wondering if Simon really didn't understand his subtext, but he also changed the subject with interest.

Lunch ends at one o'clock in the afternoon.

Ella Deutschman and Robert Rem said goodbye and returned to the hotel, and Sophia left to make final preparations for tonight's Gucci night.

Everyone went about their own business, the servants were sent away, and the villa was quiet.

Simon had no work schedule in the afternoon, so he had little time to spare, so he stayed alone under the eaves of the living room upstairs to look through Jennifer's recent collection of technical information about computer networks, and the female assistant was downstairs to help him redefine his schedule for the next few days.

It's past two o'clock.

As the Mediterranean afternoon sun poured in through the open porch, Simon leaned back on a sun lounger, most of his body soaked in sunlight, reading a paper on the HTTP protocol, when Natasha Kinski walked in silently behind him.

Simon saw the woman squatting down next to his sun lounger, with a red suspender dress on her body, looking at her like a cat, and asked, "Want to go out?"

"The movie I was involved in, Spring of the Riptide, had a screening at three o'clock. ”

Simon nodded, "Oh." ”

He knew the movie.

At the beginning, Valerie Golino almost played the heroine of the new film that the famous Polish director Jez Skolimowski had been preparing for several years, but she chose to give up because of the invitation to the role of Catwoman. The film had already premiered on the 15th, and although it was a film that Jerz Skolimowski had been preparing for many years, "Spring in the Rapids" had low media reviews compared to the director's other films.

Natasha Kinski saw Simon's cold reaction and said directly: "You go with me." ”

Simon had seen some of the films that the festival was going to show this afternoon, including "Spring in the Rapids," after lunch, and none of them were of interest to him, so he preferred to stay home. Hearing Natasha Kinski say this, he shook his head and said, "No." ”

Natasha Kinski thought for a moment, crouched next to him and leaned closer, and said, "I told Jenny that you slept with me." ”

Simon casually flipped the page of the paper in his hand, and his tone was flat: "There is only one result for you to do this, either I will kick you out of here, or Jenny will kick you out of here." ”
