Chapter 161: The Palme d'Or
The influence of the three major European film festivals has gradually declined, but this is the top film festival in the world, and many people are a little out of shape when they receive awards.
But the stars from Hollywood are completely different, and European films are just a niche circle in their eyes.
Nicole Kidman smiled and accepted the trophy and made a gesture of please, allowing Natalie to speak first. In terms of age, she is older.
Natalie was not polite, she smiled happily, she couldn't see that the two were still competing in secret just now, put the trophy on the table, looked at the audience, and there was some momentum.
"The Cannes Film Festival is the banner of cinema and art, and it should not belong only to Europe, it should belong to all filmmakers around the world who love film and pursue art. It selects many excellent films from all over the world from a fair and artistic perspective, which is the pride of art and the pride of our filmmakers. ”
"It's an honor for me to have the opportunity to act, to have the opportunity to work with a director like Sam Mendes, to have the opportunity to play against a great actor like Nicole Kidman, oh my God, her performance is so good! ”
Natalie's slight pause caused a slight burst of laughter in the room.
They were intrigued by the live interaction of the celebrity couple.
"To be honest, I worked really hard to get this role, and in the end, I used a breakup as a threat to finally have the opportunity to act. Natalie touched the trophy on the stage and looked happy, "Now it seems that everything was worth it for all my hard work!"
"Haha!"
In the hall, there was finally a burst of laughter.
Dare to make such nonsensical jokes on such occasions, that is, the tricks that Americans can play, and they will always be funny on serious occasions.
Don in the audience also applauded warmly, looking at Natalie's eyes, full of appreciation.
She's really good, isn't she?
After waiting for a while, Natalie smiled slightly, "I want to thank the Cannes Film Festival for giving filmmakers all over the world a platform to show themselves, thank the jury for recognizing me, thank my family, fans and boyfriend for all the support I have given, without you, Natalie would not be where she is today, thank you!"
Natalie bowed slightly, picked up the trophy, and winked playfully at Nicole Kidman.
Nicole's speech is naturally more fluent, and in terms of experience in receiving awards, she is much richer than Natalie, at least she has appeared on the big stage of the Golden Globe Awards.
……
The Best Actress Award was awarded, and the presenters and winners left the stage one after another.
Subsequently, there are the three most eye-catching awards of this Cannes Film Festival - the Best Director Award, the Grand Jury Prize and the Palme d'Or!
This time Cannes is destined to be a paradise for Asian films.
After the Japanese film won the FIPRESCI Award in the main competition, and Tony Leung won the Best Actor Championship and won the Grand Jury Prize, Edward Young, a famous director from Bay Island, was proudly elected as the best director at the 53rd Academy Awards for his film!
In the subsequent Jury Prize, the Danish film won the first prize!
Behind the warm applause, this caused some surprise and speculation among many guests.
You know, before that, it was once the biggest favorite candidate for the Palme d'Or!
Although the 、、、、 are also well received, they are definitely the biggest hits in accordance with the aesthetic traditions of Cannes' past.
The Cannes Film Festival, organized by the French Film Institute, pays more attention to acute social problems, to have criticism, questioning and unsolvable contradictions, and to some "unsolvable" problems.
Some other movies, relatively speaking, are far less sharp and profound than the contradictions.
As is customary, neither the Palme d'Or nor the Grand Jury Prize will go to one party.
Now, it's out, so which movie won the Palme d'Or?
On the podium, the president of the jury of this year's film festival, the famous French director Luc Besson and the famous French movie star Sophie Marceau, came hand in hand.
Donn's attention was immediately taken away by the stunning Sophie Marceau.
She wore a red low-necked dress, revealing her plump breasts, her face was like a hibiscus, her body was like a willow, and her seductive eyes seemed to be more enchanting than peach blossoms. The skin as white as snow, under the dazzling lights, is like a beautiful jade carving.
The audience was silent and peaceful, and I don't know whether I was infected by the solemnity before the announcement of the Palme d'Or, or by the beauty of Sophie Marceau.
"Do you like this kind of old woman?" Natalie pinched Don angrily, the corners of her eyes curled.
Don coughed lightly, "It's only in his thirties, so it's not old, is it?"
His voice was low, for fear of being heard by Nicole. Natalie's words were obviously sarcastic.
"I'm about the same age as my mom anyway!"
"How can it be so exaggerated?" Don couldn't help but shudder, crying and laughing.
Natalie snorted, "Your aesthetic is weird anyway. ”
Tang En didn't continue to argue, thought for a while, and asked cautiously, "Honey, tonight...... Can I take a leave of absence?"
"Excuse me?" Natalie was stunned, and immediately reacted, gritting her silver teeth, "You really like her?"
Tang En said with a shy face, "Try it." ”
"Disgusting!"
"Do you agree?"
"What if I don't agree?" Natalie glanced at Don.
Tang En said: "If you don't agree, I will definitely continue to accompany you." In my heart, a hundred Sophie Marceau can't compare to you, and I don't want to make you angry. ”
"Angry?" Natalie pouted disdainfully, "An old woman in her thirties is not worth my anger." ”
"Then you just agreed?" Donn's eyes lit up instantly.
Natalie waved her hand a little impatiently, "It just so happens that I have a good rest, and during this time, I have been tormented by you." ”
Tang En was overjoyed and grabbed her little hand, "I know that my Nat is the most angry, and she has the bearing of the richest lady!"
"Boring!"
Natalie rolled her eyes.
……
Luc Besson looked solemn, he came to the speaker's seat, looked up at the microphone in front of him, broke it up, glanced at Sophie Marceau beside him, and then broke it down.
I really don't know if his series of actions were deliberately designed or improvised.
All in all, the impression on the current guests is very good!
Luc Besson calmly opened the envelope, greeted Sophie Marceau with a smile, and said solemnly: "The winner of the Palme d'Or, the final prize of this Cannes Film Festival, is ......."
Sophie Marceau stepped forward, glanced at the list, and then her eyes drifted to Donn's direction, blinked a few times quickly, and smiled beautifully: "!"
Boom, live fryer!
