1719 Gains and losses
Twenty-four professional media comprehensive evaluation of 95 points, this is the "burst drummer" debuted word-of-mouth performance, easily became this year's Sundance number one hit, but also officially announced the 2014 masterpiece election quietly kicked off, this year's noteworthy masterpieces will be one after another, Sundance is obviously the first platform, and just in the awards season to make history in the award season to win the Oscar nomination for four consecutive years, once again seize the opportunity, become the leader.
Regardless of the debate on social networking platforms, what is certain is that the praise and affirmation of the professional media has begun to boil over.
Under tremendous pressure, Lan Li once again gave the "best of his career" level performance, and deservedly became the most high-profile focus of the film "Burst Drummer";
The symposium in which Lan Li was a guest had just sparked a craze, and before it had completely subsided, "Burst Drummer" had sparked another new trend, which had taken its wings on the tiny city of Parker and swept the scene, with discussions about the work being heard everywhere in cinema screening rooms, coffee houses, or street benches.
"Personally, I still like JK Simmons' performance more, it's more powerful. ”
"I think JK's performance is more outgoing and free, which means that it is easier to likable, because his brilliance can be directly felt by the eyes, but Lan Li's performance is more worthy of taste, and those blank spaces left for the audience to slowly reminisce are actually all hidden in the details of his performance, which I think is indeed better than 'Gravity' and 'Drunken Country Folk'. ”
"What? 'Gravity' is the pinnacle of unsurpassability, okay?"
"Impossible!" The performance of 'Drunken Country Ballads' is even better, now ......"
"Are you sure you know what you're talking about? How could 'Drunken Country Ballad' be better than 'Gravity'?"
"Wait, wait. We're talking about 'Burst Drummer', why did you suddenly ......"
Leaving the elevator and walking into the hotel lobby, next to the elevator door, you can see several fans arguing with red faces, one by one, they are fighting with reason every inch, and unswervingly express their opinions, because they are too intense and too engaged, so that the protagonist who didn't find the topic at all is standing next to him, listening attentively with relish.
"Lan Li! Lan Li! Here! Lan Li!"
Not far away, a cheerful and excited shout came, interrupting Lan Li's thoughts, turning his head in the direction of the sound, and then saw that in the café next to the hotel lobby, Damien Chazelle stood up and waved his hands vigorously, and JK Simmons was sitting at the same table next to him.
Damien waved his arm vigorously, but he didn't see Lan Li move, on the one hand, he was worried that his voice might disturb the silence of the other customers, and on the other hand, he was anxious to hope that Lan Li could come quickly, after weighing, he simply stood up and trotted towards Lan Li quickly.
It's not like Damien Chazelle at all.
Usually Damien is a low-key and silent otaku, not good at words or socializing, always trying his best to eliminate his sense of existence in crowded occasions, and if he is not careful, he may completely forget his existence, don't talk loudly, and even take the initiative to talk to him without necessarily responding.
But today......
Damien left the café and walked quickly towards Lan Li, his expression revealing a sense of lightness and excitement, but it could be seen from the uncoordinated body movements that this was not the way he was usually used to, "Lan Li, hurry up, hurry up!" Damien lowered his voice, "The media comment is out!" The light look between his eyebrows revealed a childish look.
In fact, Damien is only twenty-eight years old, only four years older than Lan Li.
Lan Li gently bowed his head to show that he understood, and didn't say anything, and followed Damien's footsteps and walked in the direction of the café, those fans who were discussing fiercely still didn't find out about the existence of Lan Li and Damien, and were completely immersed in their own world, so they naturally missed the opportunity to talk face-to-face with the main creator of the crew.
Footsteps came to the café, Lan Li could see Simmons' attentive expression at a glance, holding a newspaper in his hand, and reading it seriously, not roughly, but word by word, and tightly towards the eyebrows who were close to the middle to reveal his nervousness and devotion.
Although he had just seen Damien go to greet Lan Li, it was obvious that Simmons did not expect the two of them to come so quickly, half a beat slower, then raised his head, cleared his throat, pretended to be calm and said hello, and then took advantage of Lan Li's order to quickly lower his head and scan all the words he had just read to the end, then folded the newspaper, put it on the table, pretended that nothing had happened, and looked at Lan Li with a smile.
cares, but pretends not to care.
Simmons has been in Hollywood for nearly two decades, and in order to maintain his acting dreams, he has performed all kinds of quirky roles in small theaters across North America, while also trying countless different bizarre jobs to make ends meet, just to make ends meet in different films. "Twenty years" is already very difficult to say, let alone experience it personally.
"Popping Drummer" was Simmons' first-ever production in the spotlight, and his performance was truly radiant.
After last night's premiere, in the applause and popularity of the audience, Simmons finally enjoyed the bittersweet taste, but after a night of precipitation, Simmons inevitably suffered from gains and losses, worried that the comments of the professional media were far lower than expected, so he had to continue to comfort himself, "Don't expect too much".
On the one hand, Simmons couldn't hold back his curiosity and expectations, and on the other hand, Simmons was worried about revealing his uneasiness and apprehension, especially in front of the two young people, Lan Li and Damien. This ambivalence made Simmons a little agitated.
Thankfully, Damion's leap stole all attention, allowing Simmons to find a brief sense of security.
"Did you read the comments?" Damien's eyes widened with anticipation written on his face, and before the waiter could turn away, he couldn't wait to ask.
Lan Li smiled dumbly and shook his head slightly, "I'm waiting for you." ”
Lan Li still remembers that when he first boarded Sundance with "Love Crazy", his mood was always oscillating between nervousness and excitement, apprehension and excitement, and the sense of anticipation was indescribable, but gradually, as he became more experienced, his mood became calmer - not that he didn't care, but that he was able to look at the media comments with a calmer and more stable mind, and even now, Lan Li is still curious about the direction and focus of the media comments.
"'New York Times,' full marks!" Damien's eyes lit up with excitement.
Sundance is the top stage of Damien's dreams, and when he first filmed "Burst Drummer", Damien said that his only thought was to catch Sundance in January this year, and to be able to be audited by a wide audience here and show his talent.
Now that his dream has finally come true, Damien is naturally excited.
"Simmons and Hall's performances made watching this work a pain but also a pleasure. Damien opened the newspaper, lowered his voice, read the New York Times review word by word, and then shook his head slightly, revealing a hint of pride, "That's what I'm hoping to achieve." ”
Damien was never ready to shoot "The Burst Drummer" into a work that everyone loved, the kind of heartburn and even physical discomfort, this is the effect that Damien is looking for, from the character setting of Fletcher and Andrew, to the breakthrough camera capture of polishing skills, he has always been looking for the texture of that torment and torture, and finally presented through the lens.
Now that the New York Times has captured this delicate texture, Damien is naturally very proud.
Lan Li's eyebrows raised slightly, and he cast a look at Simmons, "It seems that our work has not been in vain. ”
Simmons tried to say something, but found that his throat was so dry that he didn't make a sound for the first time, coughed twice, and then said, "You should read today's media commentary, all the media are praising you, and your performance has won unanimous praise." ”
"Are you sure? I thought all the attention was going to be on you. "It's not polite, Lan Li's eyes reveal sincerity, he is serious.
Whether it is in the previous life or in this life, Lan Li has always believed that the breaking point of "Burst Drummer" is maintained in Simmons, and the explosive and shocking performance has been heartily embodied in the character of Fletcher, which can indeed bring an unparalleled movie-watching experience, and at the same time, this is also one of the most admired performance genres of the Oscar season, with which Simmons reached the peak of his career.
Simmons could sense the sincerity in Lan Li's eyes, he couldn't help but be stunned slightly, and then his expression became a little awkward, he originally wanted to be polite, but after thinking about it, the words that came to his mouth changed, "You just make me embarrassed, I was jealous just now because the media is generally praising you, and I can't help but look for my name in the corners of every comment." ”
Lan Li was not modest, he just spread his hands, "The impact of the star halo, in addition to the disadvantages, is still a little beneficial. Simmons chuckled at the look of calmness, and then teased, "I promise I'll shift the focus to you in the coming publicity period." Be sure to be prepared. ”
