- How do you evaluate Forrest Gump's acting skills?

This year, Forrest Gump has been shortlisted for the Oscar for the second consecutive year, as a yellow race, this is undoubtedly quite rare, according to statistics, even white people are shortlisted for the best actor for two consecutive years is extremely rare.

Is his acting really that good? Or is it because of his rare skin color that he has an extra layer of sympathy in people's selections?

Another factor that has to be mentioned is the rapid development of the Chinese market, which is almost predictable to surpass Japan as the world's second largest box office market this year.

In this way, Forrest Gump has two layers of halo on his body, one is one of the few yellow skins in Hollywood, and the other is the fast-growing Chinese film market.

Only by removing these factors from him can we really get in touch with the essence, that is, what is the acting skills of an actor?

Now my computer hard drive is full of all Forrest Gump's works, including his "Mei Lanfang" and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" in China, and the other "Life of Pi", which will be scheduled for the second half of this year, is not included.

As Forrest Gump's first debut work, his performance in "Mei Lanfang" amazed me, this Chinese movie seems to have laid the tone of Forrest Gump's performance, that is, whether he is young or old, he can show that appropriate temperament, to use an inappropriate metaphor, he is like water in this film, indifferently, there is a torrent surging.

This metaphor can be extended to "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog", in this work he is only a supporting role, but it still fits the setting very well, you must know that this character is an elderly professor, and he can show the corresponding character temperament in the corresponding environment, which is very extraordinary.

The acting skills shown in these two films alone are enough for him to be comfortable in commercial films like "2012" and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", of course, the Chinese kung fu in "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" still has a surprising element - the final box office results of commercial films, these two films have also done very well.

When it comes to commercial films, it is inevitable to mention the topic of box office. Forrest Gump has consistently done a good job in this regard, and small productions like "Crazy Stupid Love" have also performed well at the box office - note, Forrest Gump seems to be especially good at making big moves in small-budget movies.

Two important works in his career, "Beautiful Mistake" and "Untouchable" are not big productions, the former won him a Cannes Best Actor, and the latter won $700 million, proving his confidence to support the box office alone, and these two films were also successfully shortlisted for the Oscars.

I would like to remind readers that a very interesting point is that Forrest Gump's works shortlisted for the Oscars are all produced by foreign companies, which is also quite rare.

If "Life of Pi", which will be released worldwide in the second half of this year, and "Life of Pi", which is co-produced by international director Ang Lee and him, can successfully enter next year's Oscars again, then Forrest Gump will be a phenomenal figure, comparable to Leonardo.

Even, if he misses three times in a row, it should be said that he can surpass him.

Yes, as I meant in my joke, I still don't think Forrest Gump can win an Oscar, but even if he can't win an Oscar, he is still a good actor.

And now that the best actor from the Far East looks set to challenge for the role of Warner superhero, I'm excited to see what he can do under Nolan.

"This is the sailor you're looking for?"

Gan Jing took his eyes off the screen and looked at Andy, who was silently staring at the ant-like pedestrian downstairs.

After receiving the news, Huaxia Special Effects Company had to prepare some things, and in the past two days, Andy took the lead in coping with it, and media momentum has always been an important part of dealing with challenges.

"I guess it's a response. Andy said leisurely, "You must know that as a rare yellow skin, the American Internet has always discussed you a lot, but recently there have been a lot of doubts about your acting skills, which is a big problem." ”

"Is this what you do?" Gan Jing flipped through the post praising himself, and found that there were indeed many criticisms underneath.

"Competition is everywhere, and your skin color exacerbates that competition. Andy walked over and sat down, crossed his hands on his lap, and smiled, "You rejected the CAA's solicitation, so face this." If you're white, that's fine, but if a Chinese American suddenly squeezes in, you're going to have to face the CAA. ”

"It's a very tacit behavior, and I suspect that they may not even have communicated with each other and have invariably put pressure through various channels. Andy smiled and said, "You're under the pressure of a CAA that could be a full body. There is only so much meat, why give it to a Chinese American? Superheroes have always been the top priority. ”

Gan Jing nodded silently, in fact, as mentioned in this post, the films he has been shortlisted for the Oscars for two consecutive years are all made outside the United States, which can be regarded as a different way.

"Discrimination in Hollywood is far worse than you might think. Andy was still smiling and talking, "This CAA's tacit understanding is just another verification." ”

Gan Jing still nodded, but suddenly felt wrong: "Then why do you keep smiling?"

Andy put away a smile: "As a man who is about to get married and become a father, I am in a good mood." ”

“……”

After a while, Gan Jing suddenly asked, "You said that if I release fake news and intend to join CAA, will that break the pressure of this tacit understanding?"

Andy didn't think much about it: "Fake news doesn't work, the CAA will confirm the contract as soon as possible." If you really want to join, then it is really possible. However, as a signed artist cultivated by Warner, you don't have to think about "Batman 3". ”

Speaking of which, even if many of Warner's top executives hesitate about the role, if Forrest Gump jumps to CAA, it will undoubtedly close the door to the role, and it is estimated that there will be no audition.

"Isn't it okay to have an ambiguous period with CAA?" asked Gan Jing reluctantly.

Andy looked at Forrest Gump with a strange gaze and wondered, "You don't really want to go over there, do you?"

Gan Jing said "uh", there seems to have been a similar thing in China, so he suddenly had such an idea.

"If Huaxia special effects are really like what you say, its special effects production will definitely not be able to compete with you. Andy thought for a moment and reminded, "Oscar in two days, you have to keep your demeanor, I'm afraid there will be some pressure on that occasion." ”

Gan Jing nodded thoughtfully.
