At a top-level event like the Toronto Film Festival, a huge number of works are screened here every year, some choose to have world premieres here, some have North American premieres, and some have already completed screenings at other film festivals in the United States and come to Toronto to further expand their influence, naturally, not every film can be "treated equally".

In addition to the main venue, there are more than a dozen screening venues in different parts of the city, so that film lovers can choose the right cinema to watch their favorite movies according to their geographical location.

After all, the film festival lasts for a total of 11 days, and after deducting the opening and closing ceremonies, there are only nine days, and only one film a day can hold a high-profile grand premiere at the main venue, so "Buried Alive" was arranged at the branch venue in Toronto's entertainment district to officially meet the audience.

The branch venue is a small venue, only able to accommodate 600 spectators, and the gates, passages, scales, etc. will also shrink correspondingly, I don't know if this is the reason, at this time, there are a lot of people crowded at the entrance of the venue, as if the entire red carpet is blocked, the scene looks quite large, if it is not for the sun at four o'clock in the afternoon is still bright and quiet, and even there will be an illusion that this is the grand premiere scene of the main venue.

About 20 or 30 reporters gathered in the narrow media interview area, crowding and pushing each other one after another, and the shutter sounded in unison, while at least 100 fans of the festival came and stood on both sides of the protective railing of the red carpet, shouting and screaming excitedly, pushing the atmosphere to a high and high tide, making people really feel that this was the premiere of a movie.

Rodrigo subconsciously wiped the sweat that came out of the back of his neck, the battle in front of him was obviously far beyond imagination, the situation he was worried about did not appear, but he had to worry about another thing - in the face of so many media, how could he not have stage fright, the sweat seemed to have soaked his shirt, and he pulled his right hand out from the back of his neck, and then he saw that his palm was full of sweat, and then he reacted: how is he going to wipe his hands?

Fortunately, Andy, who was sitting opposite, handed over a tissue, which made Rodrigo quickly take it, wipe off the wet and sticky sweat in his palm, and thank him again and again.

Lan Li took a serious look at the grand occasion of the red carpet, and then saw the elegant and calm figure in a flash of lights, wearing a dark silver sequined deep V top, with a black blazer and suit pants, stepping on a pair of red pointed-toe high heels, dark brown long hair tied into a ponytail, neatly revealing the whole face, with a hint of casualness in fashion, and a hint of leisure in formality, it easily became the focus of the audience.

It's Natalie Portman.

The boister and boister of the red carpet was immediately explained, as one of the most high-profile actresses at this year's Toronto Film Festival, Natalie was definitely the center of attention wherever she went, and this afternoon was even more radiant and smiling, and it was clear that she was in a good mood.

At this time, she had all the recording equipment in her hands, talking and laughing with the reporters, and the atmosphere was so lively, as if she was the protagonist of this premiere, just a debut, she occupied the center of the stage noisily, and also occupied the active position in this calculation.

Turning his head, Lan Li's eyes met Andy's, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent, and then, Lan Li didn't hesitate, let alone any timidity, patted Rodrigo's shoulder, and gestured with his eyes, "Open the door." ”

Rodrigo came to his senses, quickly opened the car door, and walked down quickly.

The red carpet was boiling like a sunflower, looking towards the luminous object in the center at the end, so that almost no one noticed that another guest arrived at the premiere, which was really embarrassing.

Gavin Hunter was the first to notice Lan Li's appearance, and to be precise, he had been waiting for Lan Li to arrive on the scene. After a long wait, he finally waited for the premiere of "Buried Alive", and he couldn't wait to interview Lan Li's views and opinions, and couldn't wait to learn more about the movie "Buried Alive" -

To be honest, there are really not many media like Gavin at the scene today who really come for the movie, either the official media of the Toronto Film Festival, or the gossip media who pay attention to the recent strong newcomer Lan Li, everyone comes to watch the excitement, and most of the media are not first-line ace reporters.

So, Gavin locked on his target person for the first time, strode to the forefront of the interview area, and shouted loudly, "Lan Li!" The irrepressible joy surged up, spurting out, and even couldn't help but raise his right hand, swayed it vigorously, and took the initiative to say hello.

Due to the size of the venue, the red carpet is only less than fifteen meters long, and the width of the two sides is only about two meters, everything is magnified by two or three times, and the close distance seems to be suddenly magnified in the line of sight, there is a sense of oppression, which also makes the boiling and turbulent scene exaggerated.

In the crowd, Lan Li saw Gavin with an excited face at a glance, helpless and funny, Rodrigo standing next to him didn't know why, and asked Lan Li in a low voice, "Is that your fan?"

"No, that's a fanatical stalker. Lan Li made a joke, but he didn't want Rodrigo to take it seriously, and looked at Gavin with a look of horror, which made Lan Li laugh brightly.

Bradley Adams of the New York Times also immediately noticed Lan Li's arrival, and unlike other reporters, he was really curious about Lan Li's next career trajectory, and he had a strange and absurd premonition that "Buried Alive" would be a very good and important work. This made him abandon Natalie in front of him without hesitation, turned around and aimed at Lan Li not far away, and pressed the shutter.

Daisy Lucas of "Vanity Fair" seemed calm and calm, picked up the camera familiarly, pointed at Lan Li who walked out of the car, and there was almost no room to stop, and quickly recorded Lan Li's every move with the camera. Although "buried alive" was not on the list of important interviews at the Toronto Film Festival in "Vanity Fair", Daisy did not hesitate to use her personal time to attend the premiere.

Hearing Gavin's impulsive and crazy voice, Bradley and Daisy were both a little stunned - they thought it was the cry of a crazy fan, but when they turned their heads, they found that the fans didn't make any special movements, and it was their colleagues who really shouted out of control, and this gap was really an inexplicable sense of joy.

At this moment, a heroic voice shouted, "Hey, handsome guy, hey, it's you, look at it." ”

At this time, more than 90% of fans are cheering and shouting at Natalie, thanks to the appearance of the "Star Wars Prequel" series, Natalie has really gained a group of avid fans, even in Toronto. After Natalie arrived at the branch venue just now, the number of fans at the scene doubled, and it was predictable that there were still fans rushing over frantically at this time.

But the voice rang out suddenly, not only out of place, but also out of place - without the madness of the fans, nor the enthusiasm of the fans, more like the teasing/banter of a street pick-up. There have been enough surprises at the premiere of "Buried Alive" today, first Natalie, then avid journalists, and now with an inexplicable girl, what's the matter?

Bradley, Daisy, and Gavin all looked over, not only that, but the other reporters also felt the surprise behind them one after another, and turned their heads one after another, and the heat of the scene fell silent for a while, and the focus of attention seemed to be tilting little by little.

The roars at the scene are not exaggerated - it looks lively, but there is a gap in the personnel base itself, and the difference can be felt from the shouts. Lan Li effortlessly heard the girl's shout, looked up, and then saw a tall blonde girl.

She is wearing a black T-shirt with a light blue denim jacket, her youthful and energetic temperament is infiltrated with a hint of sassy taste, her blonde hair is tied up high, and the overall style seems to be somewhat similar to Natalie's outfit today, but compared to Natalie's powerful momentum, she is much more approachable, with some girl-next-door playfulness.

Lan Li was stunned, then showed a look of surprise, changed direction, and walked straight over, "You are ......" Lan Li recalled seriously for a moment, "Chanelle-Laurent!"

The blonde girl's smile bloomed completely, "Hey, you actually remember my name, and you didn't make a mistake in pronunciation." This is really a huge surprise!" Chanel raised his hand and gave Lan Li a light on the shoulder, "How is it, do you like my surprise?" I kept my promise and came to watch the movie in person, you better not disappoint me, otherwise I will definitely count the money on your head. ”

"Haha, no problem. Lan Li laughed heartily, and then he saw Rodrigo beside him-he was a little confused, and subconsciously followed Lan Li's steps, "Director, don't you remember her?" Rodrigo looked dazed, "She's the girl who mistakenly thought you kidnapped me when we auditioned, and then came up to help, and we had a brief conversation, didn't we?"

Rodrigo's eyes widened, and then he reacted, but he was still a little stunned, "Wow, you have such a good memory." Obviously, his memory was a little blurry.

Lan Li spread out his hands and made a helpless gesture, "I'm just fulfilling the obligations of a gentleman." Of course, I will never admit that the real reason is because I have started to have idol baggage. ”

The witty and humorous words immediately made Chanel clap his hands and laugh.
