Chapter 411: Cannes Film Festival (Part II) Palme d'Or!

There was ...... "Yoshijun also came to Cannes."

His identity is very special, and the Cannes film festival itself is open-minded, that is, if you give money, you can be a guest.

Ishihara Ryosumi may be a very ordinary actor, but he doesn't care much about money.

The pursuit of art is his ideal, but unfortunately because of his father's relationship, in such an artistic Cannes, he actually wants to be a paparazzi.

Of course, such a red carpet ceremony, Liangchun won't do anything at all, there are so many people taking pictures, do you still need him?

However, the target has already appeared, two people, Higashino Qiang and Erika Toda, this is too obvious!

Teacher Ghosto, you should pay more attention to it, although this is France, romantic France, but it is too ......

Ryojun didn't think about it anymore, he was already preparing an action plan.

It should be enough to keep an eye on Miss Hutian.

When Higashino Qiang and Erika Toda walked on the red carpet, they were really handsome guys and beauties, complementing each other.

The most interesting thing is that the two of them, one wears white and the other wears black, which is just the opposite of Zhang Ziyi and VV.

But......

Obviously, Higashino Qiang and Hui Rika are even younger.

Moreover, it is not the first time that Higashino Qiang has participated in a European film festival, plus the previous director Takida arrived early, this "Undertaker" was also put into the brochure, and various Japanese praise has been guaranteed at the box office.

So......

Click, click, flash.

Japanese journalists, Chinese journalists, European journalists, all couldn't help it, and the most special one was the Korean journalists.

Korean reporters have heard before that there is a handsome screenwriter in Japan, and now they are here, and there is a beautiful woman with a little bird by his side.

This scene is simply like a superstar.

When Zhang Niangniang saw this scene, her cheeks were bulging, and her forehead was bruised.

Chapter ......

"Oh, nothing, ha......"

Fortunately, Zhang Niangniang's acting skills are first-class, and she quickly took it away.

It didn't take long for the two to go to watch the opening film, "Blueberry Night", after all, this is the work of director Wang Da, and it must be watched.

As for the others, Zhang Ziyi didn't look at it at all, what kind of ice was it?

Didn't I play a maid before, but now I have a powerful character, and I can play against Brother Hua, not bad, but unfortunately, there are really few shots.

Zhang Ziyi's thoughts are not exposed.

However, some people see it clearly.

Naomi Kawase, as a very outstanding and rare female director in Japan, has captured many details on this red carpet.

After all, she is a director, and her control of the camera is something that many male directors sigh about.

It's really fun.

In that cafΓ© before, Naomi Kawase took the initiative to go there.

There's no way, it's all neon gold, it's not easy to meet in this foreign country, and the other is Takida and Motoki, but ...... Well, the key lies in Higashino-sensei.

"Funeral Mori" is a long work to make, and when it is finished, it comes to Cannes, and Naomi Kawase is like an alien returning to Earth.

She only learned that there was a movie "The Undertaker" in Japan.

The original work is Mr. Uigo, screenwriter, the strongest ...... in Higashino

These two names are really enough, like the emperor's new clothes, of course, Naomi Kawase feels that such a description is inappropriate.

Because Mr. Kigo really represents justice.

The depth and sharpness of his work are admirable.

Neon Gold must be because of this, so everyone works together to maintain Mr. Ghostgo.

After all, Naomi Kawase has never watched this "Undertaker".

There is another key, that is, there seems to be some connection between this film and its own film.

At least it's all about death.

In fact, Alzheimer's disease, that is, Alzheimer's disease, is almost equivalent to death.

Check it out.

Naomi Kawase has already decided, so let's wait for this "Undertaker" to appear in Cannes.

On May 17, the second day of the Cannes Film Festival, "The Undertaker" entered the screening stage.

Yesterday's red carpet battle, how it will be reported, Naomi Kawase doesn't care.

She was like an ordinary audience, entering the theater to watch this movie.

There was a very strange feeling.

I watched a film in France that was still being released in my own country, and I hadn't seen it myself.

It's fun.

Sitting in the chair, there is a little girl mentality.

It didn't take long for "The Undertaker" to come.

The first line of words.

It's very unpretentious.

And then there's ......

"Ha ......" really couldn't hold back.

Naomi Kawase couldn't help but sigh that such an interesting thing could be played in such a film.

On the surface, it was a woman's deceased, but it was 'that' when you rubbed it.

Something bad.

After that, of course, there are all kinds of encounters with Daigo Kobayashi, and how he became an undertaker.

From time to time, there will be laughter.

But overall, it feels very smooth.

Well, bland, smooth.

Is that all?

Naomi Kawase wanted to compare in her heart, if this movie was just like this, then her own movie would definitely not lose.

But she didn't expect it to come soon.

Sasaki Lily turned out to...

Wow, that's a powerful smile.

Naomi Kawase actually made such an evaluation.

She herself couldn't believe it.

This episode made her a little silent until later.

Mr. Keigo Sasaki is lying there.,And Daigo Kobayashi is in the coffin.,This end appears.。。。

Naomi Kawase finally understood the opening sentence.

Maybe it's not that bad.

That's what it meant.

Death, perhaps, is not so bad.

This sentence may not make people live much longer.

However, it can at least give people more power.

Call~

Walking out of the theater, Naomi Kawase let out a long breath.

She seemed to have a decision.

I pulled out my phone and dialed the number.

"Is it Yelena?"

"Ah, Kawase, you're so wow. ”

"We haven't seen you in years, let's talk. ”

"Good. ”

......

The Festival de Cannes has a special section, which is the Critics' Week.

Unbeknownst to many, this Critics' Week is in fact the first of its kind outside the main competition of the Festival de Cannes.

To put it simply, the Festival de Cannes attaches particular importance to film critics.

Among these film critics, there are naturally professional filmmakers, and more are uncrowned kings, that is, journalists.

In Europe, journalists have such a title, the uncrowned king.

They write with the power of knives and guns.

However, the situation in recent years has been somewhat confusing.

Often film critics are more optimistic about the film, but often do not win awards.

For example, the film "Purple Butterfly" is directed by Lou Ye and starring Zhang Ziyi, who was very optimistic before, but he returned empty-handed.

Interestingly, Jiang Wen was on the jury that year, and the reason why Jiang Wen appeared on the jury was because Jiang Wen publicly stated it in the last session.

Some of the judges in Cannes, judging films, are like eunuchs watching others do that.

So, here you come, you come to be a judge.

In fact, this situation also appeared later, Zhang Ziyi was one of the judges of the last Cannes.

Or you can look at it this way, if you didn't win an award in the last session, then you will be a member of the jury later.

So, what about this time?

The 2007 Cannes Film Festival is the 60th edition, which means that the festival is already 60 years old.

It's very complete.

Now, from a critic's point of view, who's the hottest?

"'I grew up in Iran'! This film is a masterpiece!"

"Agreed, this is a very special film. ”

"I'm optimistic about 'Miryang', it's a very good Korean movie. ”

"Isn't anyone interested in 'Zodiac'?"

"Hey, the narrative of this American film is too bland, it makes people fall asleep. ”

Sure enough, it is the uncrowned king, and the tastes of each one are very tricky.

As one of the members of this year's jury, Zhang Manyu has already focused her life on Europe.

Basically, she is in a state of rest, and she has taken a look down on many things.

It's also good to be a judge this time.

However, these critics really ...... It's messy enough.

Zhang Manyu couldn't help but think of what someone said to her before, it was really too strange.

"The Japanese movie 'Log Forest' is very good! It focuses on Alzheimer's patients, and it is very delicate. ”

"I think "The Undertaker" is very good, I didn't know anything about the funeral rites in the East before, but now it seems that it is really amazing!"

Critics Week, so be it.

Zhang Manyu showed her trademark smile and left the place.

......

Time flies.

The Cannes Film Festival opens on May 16.

Today, May 27, more than ten days have passed.

The closing ceremony is here.

"Oh, teacher, my heart is beating so much!"

"Motoki-kun, aren't you? ”

"Hah...... Peace of mind, it's nothing, Mr. Higashino has said it, Morita has also said it, the Palme d'Or, absolutely OK!"

"That...... Director Takida, I just conveyed Director Morita's statement. ”

The closing ceremony, that is, the award ceremony, of course, will have another red carpet, and this red carpet ceremony will be more grand and more reported than the opening ceremony.

But right now, Higashino Qiang, Yojiro Takida, and Masahiro Motoki have already entered the main venue and sat in their seats.

What about the red carpet before?

The three of them walked.

Aren't there any beauties?

Yes.

"Hey, you guys, are you mistaken!" Ryoko-san is now imposing.

Yes, the beauty is Sister Ryoko, she didn't attend the opening ceremony, of course this closing ceremony can't be missed, she is the heroine.

As for Xiao Xiang...... Anyway, Mr. Higashino didn't say it, and the others just laughed.

Dong Yeqiang, who was alone and lonely, was naturally also seen by Zhang Ziyi.

The mood was beautiful.

Higashino Qiang is missing a little girlfriend by his side, and the current situation seems to be very bad.

"Mr. Higashino, it's not that we don't believe you, but right now, the most promising thing is that Iranian movie ......"

"Teacher, I don't want to complain, but is this film really okay? It's too political. ”

The worries of Takita and Motoki are very reasonable.

The Iranian film "I Grew Up in Iran", this film is really too political at the moment.

Moreover, it is a co-production between France and the United States.

No Iranians?

It doesn't matter, we're cartoons.

The call is particularly high.

Yojiro Takida and Masahiro Motoki, the two of them are too worried.

So...

"What's the panic!" Higashino Qiang directly showed his strong momentum, "I've told you, absolutely, OK!" Director Morita said so. ”

That's right, at this time, I have to emphasize that this is what Director Morita said.

Higashino Qiang has already said sorry to Yoshimitsu Morita on the Japanese sickbed in his heart.

If I really didn't win the award, I would tell the truth.

Actually, at this time, Higashino was strong......

Sister Ryoko watched from the side, and wanted to complain, but she held back.

My legs are shaking terribly.

"Isn't it just an award!

Sister Ryoko is nice, as if she has returned to the period when she was an idol.

At that time, the old lady saw who scolded whom, and how she wanted to play a big name, she could play a big name!

Takida and Motoki were really suppressed.

But...

What is the result?

"60th Cannes Film Festival, Best Short Film ...... ...... Control"

β€œ...... CamΓ©ra d'Or ......"

"Best Screenplay...... ...... Fez Arkin "

I saw one award after another being awarded, from some small awards, unimportant units, to more heavyweight awards.

Yojiro Takida, Masahiro Motoki, Qiang Higashino, Sister Ryoko and others are already silent.

Even after the awards come out, they forget to applaud.

The drums are pounding in my heart.

Never felt like this.

In fact, Higashino understands why director Takida and Masahiro Motoki are like this.

This work took a lot of effort, and there is also director Morita.

He may ...

Higashino Qiang was also strong before, and he was also hard-supported, so now......

"Trust me. ”

Yes, it's still going to be loaded, no matter what, it's going to be loaded.

The man bragged, and until the last moment, he must not admit defeat!

Higashino Qiang may not have the same Buddhist mentality as before at this moment, but he feels that there is nothing wrong with it.

With that, the eyes of the others all turned to him.

Well!

It seems that they also understand that Higashino is strong and pretending.

However, there really is nothing wrong with that.

At least the results haven't really come out yet, and even before that, we weren't the hits.

Until...

"The 60th Cannes Film Festival, Palme d'Or......!"

When the award presenter Gong Li read out the result...

"......" director Takida, Masahiro Motoki, and Qiang Higashino are all frozen.

At a critical time, it's still up to Sister Ryoko.

"Hahaha! We've won!"

PS: The third update, the number of words is a little too much, a little late, but don't worry, there must be four more today.
