809 Silver Bear
"Yes, it's a masterpiece. In this year's film list, in addition to 'just the wind', my personal second choice. Rachel Marvazan's award once again brought the work "Wizard of the Field" to the forefront, and Tony Kaye curiously asked Lan Li's opinion. Lan Li expressed his love succinctly and clearly.
Tony looked surprised, his eyes round in disbelief.
But Lan Li smiled and nodded, affirming again. Tony's face then furrowed in frustration, "God, look at what I'm missing." ”
At the Berlin Film Festival, there are really not many distributors, and it is even more difficult to distribute a work as obscure as "Wizard of the Battlefield". If you miss Berlin, you don't know when or where you'll be able to see it.
"At the 62nd Berlin Film Festival, the winner of the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor is ......" On the stage, the bright and cheerful voice came, and Lan Li and Tony both paused their conversation, politely cast their eyes, and then, Jack announced, "Lan Li Hall, 'detachment'." ”
Lan Li subconsciously raised his hands and was about to applaud, but before the action could be completed, without warning, joy and happiness burst out in an instant, and the adrenaline rush caused the brain to be slightly stunned, and the next second, the burning eyes swarmed from all directions, blooming on the surface of the skin like fireworks.
He, won the award?
Tony's body stiffened involuntarily for half a second, reflexively looked at the stage, cast a verifying gaze, and then saw Jack's full face, and his gaze accurately fell on Lan Li beside him. The joy exploded, and Tony stood up suddenly, clapping, clapping hard.
If you try to find the biggest supporter of Blue Rite on the spot, there is no doubt that Tony will come out on top. As a "detached" director, Tony witnessed the birth of a miracle, and in his mind, this year's Berlin actor is Lan Li, a well-deserved choice, a well-deserved choice!
Everything is so logical.
Tony isn't alone – in fact, before tonight's closing ceremony, when it comes to the biggest favourites for actor, Lan Li's supportive voice is far ahead of the curve.
The official review of Screen magazine described it this way: "Every viewer who watched 'detachment' was conquered. We knew he was up to any role, but there was no doubt that he had once again delivered a perfect answer.
In front of the camera, he is so incredible, he does not let go of every detail, and every emotion that is shown and converged is so real and profound. Without the slightest deliberateness, without the slightest trace, or even the slightest force, all the emotions flowed out between the gestures and conquered the audience. Like a miracle. ”
Outside of Screen magazine, other media outlets with different opinions on "detachment" also unanimously agreed: Lan Li has once again conquered the big screen, and everything seems so easy and so wonderful. The twenty-two-year-old young British actor won everyone's love when he landed in Berlin for the first time.
Especially after the propaganda of "detachment" ended, Lan Li still stayed in Berlin, which is undoubtedly a signal. Many people have speculated that this year's Best Actor in Berlin should belong to the Blue Ceremony.
Sure enough, the hunch came true!
So, it's not an upset, it's not an upset, and Jack's reaction proves it, which is expected, but, from another point of view, it's really an upset, another shocking upset.
At the age of 22, Lan Li became the second youngest actor winner in the history of the Berlin Film Festival!
Similar to North America, European actors are also getting older and more mellow. Although, relatively speaking, the pursuit of the European art field is more pure, and the age of the actor is not so important, but on the whole, among the male actors, the advantages and disadvantages of age still exist.
In other words, the struggles and struggles of young actors in Europe are also full of thorns.
The youngest winner in the history of the Berlinale was Lou-Tayler-Pucci, who won the Silver Bear for Best Actor in 2005 for "The Man Who Sucks the Thumb", when he was just 20 years old.
This year, the 22-year-old Lan Li once again won the Silver Bear Award. Compared with actors whose prime age is generally divided into 40 and 50 years old, this is undoubtedly an unpopularity, and it is definitely an unpopular that breaks the rules, breaks the routine, and breaks the routine!
After last year's Berlinale awarded Best Actor and Best Actress to "A Farewell" as unpopular, commending the outstanding performances of the leading actors, as well as the Iranian social phenomenon reflected behind this work, this year's Berlinale once again broke out the upset.
The president of the jury, headed by Mike Lee, decisively and courageously awarded the best actor and best actress to the young actors.
At the end of the day, young actors are the future of the film industry, as well as the future of artistic creation and social development, and this year's Berlinale is at the forefront of this year's Berlinale as it faces a post-baby boomer actor cut-off and Europe faces a similar dilemma.
At the artistic level, among the three major European film festivals, Berlin has always been in the lead, with clear thinking, keeping up with the times, reforming and innovating, and advancing with the times.
So, the Silver Bear at the 62nd Berlin Film Festival, Best Actress, Rachel Marvazan, Best Actor, Lanley Hall.
It's an unpopular, but it's not an unpopular.
Tony was the first to stand up and gave him a round of applause. The other guests exchanged glances, and the applause rang out first, and the thunderous sound gradually became one, and then, the guests finally realized the significance of these two unpopular ones, and stood up one after another, and finally, the third standing ovation of the audience tonight, the applause became louder and louder, and the mighty surge came.
In an instant, Lan Li became the focus of attention of the audience, and thousands of eyes were projected like a spotlight. The surging happiness filled the entire chest, and involuntarily, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose, and the light under his eyes brightened.
On the left-hand side, Sammy Gale and Betty Kaye were both clapping vigorously, hot tears sliding down and crying silently, and their excited and exuberant appearance was even more turbulent than Lan Li. Lan Li chuckled, a faint touch slowly flowed in his chest, he stepped forward, gave the two little girls a hug, expressed their gratitude, and comforted, and then took a step towards the stage.
On the stage, Jack stood in place with the trophy in both hands, smiling, quietly waiting. However, after a short while, it was broken, and after seeing Lan Li on stage, Jack took the initiative to greet him, opened his arms, and gave Lan Li a big bear hug, a real bear hug, and slapped Lan Li's back hard - without leaving any strength, "Man! Oh, man." ”
A simple sigh, but the mixed and turbulent emotions are exhausted.
Lan Li chuckled, "Man, my trophy, aren't you going to give it to me?" a teasing sentence made Jack laugh happily, presented the trophy with both hands, and then took a big step back and made a knightly salute to show respect.
Looking down at the Silver Bear Award in his hand, the taste on the tip of his tongue is mixed. To be honest, he had imagined and looked forward to it, and it would be hypocritical to say no, but when this moment really happened, the emotion, the excitement, the turbulence, it was still difficult to express in words, and all the images in his imagination could not be captured even one thousandth of the excitement.
The cute little bear, which is the symbol of Berlin, raises its two paws cutely, as if to be in power and in welcome. The silver arc flowed under the light, a little rough, but also more real. It was so heavy, far heavier than expected, that it seemed that even the hands could not support its weight.
That's it. This is the actor trophy of Lanli's first international top film festival, and this is also the first heavyweight actor trophy in Lanli's career. Following the unexpected surprise at last year's Sundance Film Festival, this year's Blue Rite went one step further and received the recognition of the Berlinale, which for many actors may not be able to reach in their lifetime. However, Lan Li reached it at the age of twenty-two.
A thousand words, but after all, they can't accurately describe Lan Li's mood at this moment. Any word seems too pale.
Gently rubbed it, gently checked it again, the weight fell heavily and heavily on my heart, and the smile on the corner of my mouth completely got rid of the shackles and bloomed wantonly and brightly.
"Please forgive my faux pas, if I could, I would stand here and stare at it for a long time, and then just walk away. I think this is the most fitting acceptance speech for Berlin. Lan Li finally came back to his senses and teased himself into the microphone, and the light breeze and the little humor that came at his fingertips successfully raised the corners of people's mouths.
"So, here I am. Phew, this part of the road is closer than I thought, but it is also a little harder. After saying that, Lan Li chuckled himself, "closer" is actually alluding to his youth, and "more difficult" seems to imply that he is talented and should have come out earlier. It's ridicule and banter, especially Lan Li's clever tone, which is even more humorous.
Lan Li then said, "It is undoubtedly a challenge to shoot the film 'Detachment'. There is one of the scenes, we shot 71 times, and believe me, it is definitely not a wonderful memory, but it is an irreplaceable important memory, polished little by little, to make me believe that I can be a good actor. ”
"However, after this shoot, I thought that the next time Tony asked for a collaboration, I should think about it. As soon as the conversation changed, Lan Li teased again, and many people at the scene chuckled, and then Tony raised his voice and replied, "You too, little madman." At this point, everyone burst into laughter.
Lan Li himself couldn't help laughing, and replied with a "thank you", and the laughter at the scene became more and more joyful, and he couldn't stop it.
