Chapter 201: Cannes, "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" (3/4)

Cannes in May is a pleasant and sunny day.

Filmmakers and film dealers from all over the world come together here, making it a world of cinema.

At the same time, fans are excited to come here for the pilgrimage.

Yuehua was led by Tang Ningyu this year, and the two films "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" and "The Piano of Steel" were selected for the main competition unit...

Zhang Junsheng didn't come, he may not come over until after the official opening, "Tangshan Earthquake" is still being filmed, even if there is no heroine, there are many other scenes that can be filmed!

……

Originally, Pinnacle helped "Inception" to do a global public screening in Cannes, but unfortunately, Nolan was reluctant to...

In addition, the opening film has been taken away by "Robin Hood", and the relationship between Summit and Universal has always been good, so he did not continue to entangle...

However, the summit still made a few buyers go to Cannes - buy a few erotic films, and then release DVDs directly...

Feature films that are very beautiful in the eyes of Europeans, such as "The History of Anna's Lust", "Nine Songs", "Dreaming of Paris", etc., are directly banned from public release in the United States!

But if these movies are priced right, the DVD rights alone are a lot of money!

By the way, "Fair Game" produced by Summit was also shortlisted for the main competition unit, which is a work co-starred by Naomi Watts and Sean Penn, directed by Doug Liman, and his representative works are "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" and "Spy Shadows"...

Since last year, in addition to horror movies and series, the summit has also begun to try action movies...

Wang Bo and Yan Bingyan came together, and they were together last time, but Wang Bo won the Cannes Best Actor with "Tiangu", but Yan Bingyan got nothing...

This time, everyone in Yuehua is full of confidence!

"Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart" is too well acted!

Yan Bingyan has a high probability of being sealed in one fell swoop...

The problem is that the chairman of the jury, Tim Burton, does not necessarily appreciate such a film ...

But Bo Ge is one of the judges!

That's right, Beau is one of the jury members of this year's Cannes Film Festival...

With this guy's eloquence and emotional intelligence, not to mention the best actress, even the best picture may not have no chance!

A group of luxury cars drove into the local hotel, and there were many European and American reporters and paparazzi waiting curiously raising their cameras and stretching their necks to see which big star came to Cannes.

And then a little surprised to find out... I don't know at all...

It's a little embarrassing...

But this is also normal, most European and American journalists have little to say about distant China, and at most say 'Avatar sold for $200 million over there...'

The paparazzi and the reporter took a perfunctory look, and they didn't even want to lift the camera, it was not newsworthy!

They care about Sean Penn and Naomi Watts in "Fair Game", Woody Allen and Anthony Hopkins in "Encounter with Strangers", and Michael Douglas and Shia LaBeouf in "Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps"...

After all, they're the big stars!

Not to mention Yan Bingyan, even if Zhang Jun is born, it is useless - the workers in front of the screen will always enjoy more opportunities to focus on the light than the workers behind the scenes!

It was useless for Akira Kurosawa to come back from the dead to Cannes...

……

Cannes is seen as an awards ceremony by outsiders, and the world's largest trade fair for film companies in the industry.

In May, studios from all over the world gather here to shop for the most eye-catching films.

"The Piano of Steel" and "Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" belong to literary films, which are not suitable for screening through Yuehua's channels - most of the films screened overseas by Yuehua in recent years are films with obvious commercial attributes, and most of the films that are too literary and artistic still sell the copyright directly!

"Ten Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart" will be released on May 13;

"Piano of Steel" was released on May 14, and it was all placed in the Lumière Hall.

In recent years, Yuehua has gradually become a frequent visitor to European film festivals, and Cannes is very interested in them!

Moreover, the screening effect of "Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart" and "The Piano of Steel" in the media field was very good, and Yan Bingyan received a lot of praise...

But Tang Ningyu was a little anxious - without Zhang Junsheng pressing the formation, he always felt a little unsteady!

I really don't blame Director Zhang, he... His plane was delayed.

……

What is "Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart" about?

The Chinese version of "The Life of the Disgusted Li Baoli"...

Li Baoli is an authentic Wu * Han person, oh, a Wu * Han city person.

At the beginning of the movie, she is the absolute heroine!

With rude scolding, she is capable, shrewd, and spicy, but she doesn't give people affection on her lips, and she is a petty citizen in her heart. She has a beautiful face, but she has no temperament to speak of, she has a zest for life, but she is also full of vicious and ruthless charlatans.

Diametrically opposed to her is the image of her husband Ma Xuewu, who is a small cadre of a state-owned enterprise, usually modest and obedient in front of his wife.

On the day of moving to a new house, Ma Xuewu suddenly filed for divorce...

Of course Li Baoli disagreed, in order to keep her husband, she waited for her husband who returned late every day, and even lowered her posture to take off her husband's shoes and socks.

Later, she found out that her husband had an affair and was a typist in the factory. One day, she followed her husband and lover to a hotel, and her overly stunned head made her unable to think of any good way, so she chose to call the police.

Ma Xuewu was arrested as a prostitute and dismissed from his post. Without leaving a word for his wife, he committed suicide by jumping into the river. Since then, her in-laws have regarded Li Baoli as an enemy, and her son has stopped talking to her.

In order to support her family and provide for her son to go to college, Li Baoli had to become a female flattener.

Ten years later, Baoli's baby son Xiaobao became the top student in the local college entrance examination.

She thought that her hard life was coming to an end, but she found that Xiaobao was going to cut off the mother-son relationship with her on the day of the college entrance examination results.

Her hard work over the years is nothing more than her father's debt repayment in the eyes of her son.

Li Baoli is the absolute protagonist of this story, and her words and deeds directly affect the final direction of the whole story.

She is great as a woman who works hard at the bottom of society and puts all her heart and soul into maintaining a family, but she is not qualified as a considerate and sensible wife, a competent and exemplary mother. Therefore, in the end, Li Baoli's life tragedy of being betrayed by her husband and spurned by her son is determined by her own character and behavior.

"Ten Thousand Arrows Through the Heart" is really cruel and terrifying, because it pokes at the pain of society: no matter how big the family tragedy is, it boils down to the self-inflicted behavior of individuals!

At the end of the movie, the son wants to sell the house, get a new one, and force his mother to move out.

Li Baoli was like Ma Xuewu, she didn't leave a word, she just picked up all her belongings and stayed in a cheap hotel where the flatteners settled.

She thinks that life is her own, whether it is full of children and grandchildren or a lonely family, she must go through it by herself.

A character like Li Baoli has a beastly struggle and tension, which ordinary actors can't accomplish at all!

For such a role, if an actress can encounter it once, it is a great fortune in life.

Yan Bingyan went to experience life from the second week after getting the script, and she was a flat shoulder for half a year...

At the end of the movie, the entire screening room burst into fifteen-minute applause...
