On May 7, 1987, the 40th Cannes Film Festival opened on time, and "The Silence of the Lambs" will be the opening film of this Cannes Film Festival.

In a previous life, the film participated in the French César Awards, but only received one nomination.

Omaha Beach is full of casual kissing and even wilder intimacy.

"God gave the best piece of land to France, and later felt that it was unfair to other nations, and created the French on this land. Wang Jie teased.

Listening to Wang Jie's comments on the French, Jodie Foster also sighed: "To put it nicely, the French emphasize enjoying life, and to put it ugly, the French are too lazy, chaotic and careless." ”

Wang Jie took Jodie Foster and sat in an open-air café on the banks of the Seine, and after asking for two cups of coffee, Jodie Foster said in a low voice: "Although I don't like the French very much, I can't deny that the concepts of freedom, equality and fraternity have entered the soul of this country." ”

"Freedom, fraternity?" Wang Jie picked up the coffee cup, took a sip and said: "You know, Judy, the French enjoy the best leisure time in the world, but they are still not satisfied, and they are always on strike. Every September is the time to return to work after the holidays, and it is also the best time to organize a general strike, they have Christmas in winter, spring break in spring, paid vacation in summer, and strike in autumn. It's great all year round. ”

"This is Paris, William. Jodie Foster looked around at the few tables of guests around, "Beware of being heard by the French and throwing you into the Seine." ”

The two are like ordinary couples, joking with each other, in fact, the two are really a couple at this time, at the finale banquet after the shooting, Jodie Foster originally wanted to take the opportunity to pour Wang Jie a few more glasses, so that he could make some foreign appearances, but he didn't expect to be drunk, and that night with the strength of the wine Jodie Foster dragged Wang Jie to his room, needless to say, although Jodie Foster's appearance is medium to high, but for the sake of her is still the first time, plus this woman's luck is very high, Wang Jie also took the excuse to combine with her double cultivation, and then Jodie Foster, like other women, was physically and mentally tied to Wang Jie。

Zhu ...... Judy?" A brown-haired girl walked into the café, a little uncertain at first, but laughed happily as she walked over, "Judy, it's really you!

"Alice. The embarrassment on Jodie Foster's face flickered, and she quickly stood up and beckoned, "Alice, please take a seat." ”

After the other party sat down, Wang Jie glanced at her quietly, this was a woman of about twenty-five or sixteen years old, looking at Jodie Foster's gaze was very strange.

"Judy, is this your friend?" Alice looked at Wang Jie curiously, and immediately recognized who it was, "You are Director William!Hello, William, I'm Alice, I'm Judy's roommate in college, I've watched your "Ghost Love", it's amazing. ”

"Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you, Alice. ”

After saying hello, Wang Jie called the waiter and ordered a cup of coffee for the other party.

Wang Jie quietly looked at the two of them talking and laughing, from Jodie Foster's expression and words, he could see that these two people should have a very unusual relationship.

Wang Jie vaguely remembers that Jodie Foster's first rumored girlfriend seemed to be her college roommate, and the two seemed to be separated because of a trivial matter when they graduated.

"So, you're going back to New York tomorrow? Have you booked your ticket? Why don't we go together?" said Alice.

"This ......"

Jodie Foster pointed at Wang Jie, "I still have an event to participate in with William." ”

Alice said regretfully: "Then you must contact me when you go back, you must know that I still have the necklace you gave me." ”

"Of course, I'll get in touch with you. Jodie Foster said with an embarrassed smile.

Seeing Alice away, Jodie Foster saw Wang Jie's playful smile and said angrily: "Don't mention this matter in the future." ”

Founded in 1939, the Cannes Film Festival is one of the world's top international film festivals, after the original time and space entered the nineties, European films were greatly impacted by Hollywood films, and the market almost all fell.

In fact, even stupid people understand that movies will only die if they lose their business.

"William, I haven't seen you in a long time. ”

Walking into the hotel, as soon as he entered the room prepared by the organizer, Wang Jie ushered in Yves Montdown, the chairman of the Cannes jury.

"Yves, long time no see. Ryan said politely.

Yves Mondang had previously invited Sophie Marceau to participate in one of his independent films, but Sophie Marceau refused, and the two met in this matter.

"I've seen The Silence of the Lambs, it's brilliant and fits the theme of Cannes. Yves Mondang said.

"It's nice to get the compliment and hopefully a good result this time. Wang Jie said with a smile.

"The judges loved the film, and your artistic achievements will definitely be recognized. Yves Mondang said seriously.

The month of May is the most beautiful and busiest time of year in Cannes, the Cannes Film Festival will be held in the southeast of France, the small city of 70,000 people will become crowded, the local newspaper will publish full-page festival advertisements, the streets will also be posted with festival posters, and the festival's activities will be concentrated in the main venue, the 'Palais des Festivals'.

Located on the shores of the famous Cte d'Azur, the Palais des Festivals offers a view of the luxury yachts in the harbor, making the festival not only a great event for movie fans, but also a great place for some people to hunt for beauty.

At this time, a large number of reporters and fans gathered on both sides of the red carpet in front of the stairs of the Festival Palace, and the noisy voices could be heard from afar, and the stars and directors who came from all over the world to participate in the film festival were waving across the red carpet, taking photos in front of the steps, and entering the theater one after another.

At the height of the entrance of the theater, a huge poster of "The Silence of the Lambs" was hung, and Wang Jie, Jodie Foster, Zeng Jiang and others finally appeared on the red carpet under the deliberate arrangement of the organizers.

Although there have been many stars before, there are very few who truly have world-class influence, so when Wang Jie and Jodie Foster walked on the red carpet hand in hand, the red carpet ceremony finally ushered in the long-awaited climax.

The fans on both sides shouted hoarsely, and the volume was more than twice as high as just now, and the camera in the reporter's hand did not stop, and the film that murdered in this short moment kept up with the sum used before.

In terms of box office and influence around the world, who can compare with Wang Jie with all the people who walked on the red carpet today?

Jodie Foster waved to both sides, and soon fell into the heavy circle of photojournalists, the red carpet here was far more open than at the Oscars, from the moment Wang Jie and Jodie Foster stepped on the red carpet, dozens of reporters followed closely behind, as if they did not want to let go of any of their expressions and movements.

Despite the glaring lights and the frantic shouting of reporters, Jodie Foster always smiles and shows her most charming side.

Walking to the bottom of the steps in front of the Festival Palace, the organizer's cooperative media had already prepared reporters and questions, and Wang Jie suddenly stuffed several microphones in front of him.

"It's a very beautiful city with amazing beaches and turquoise waters, and I think I'm about to love it. Wang Jie said easily and naturally.

"It's said that this was Mr. William's first step in a thriller film, what prompted you to make such a film?"

"The movie has a great story and a deep theme, and I don't think I need to say much about the fact that it's based on a novel that's in the top five bestsellers in North America, right?"

"Do you know French cinema, and what are some of the best French cinema you have seen?"

"I have worked with Sophie Marceau, she is a very good actor, as for the ...... of French films" Wang Jie couldn't help scratching his head a little, and he really couldn't think of it for a while, so he had to say, "A few days ago, I also watched an old movie called "First Kiss", a great film. ”

His answer was obviously somewhat unexpected, and the reporter who asked the question couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Leaving the interview area, the main creative staff of the entire crew stood in front of the steps and walked towards the interior of the theater after the routine group photo.

Just like a Hollywood-style premiere, in the front hall of the Festival Palace, a large number of insiders gathered, and when the crew came in, they immediately cast their attention to it, and when they saw Wang Jie, those filmmakers from all over the world were full of complicated eyes.

There is envy, jealousy, admiration, and of course, disdain.

However, everyone knows what kind of occasion this is, even if they are not used to Wang Jie's commercial style, they will not be stupid enough to jump out at this time to find trouble, otherwise, it will only be themselves who will be embarrassed.

Especially those directors in Europe, they often say disdain, and how many of them don't want their works to open the North American market and go to Hollywood?

The director is okay to say that he always has to be a little reserved, but actors from all over the world are different, Hollywood has a natural attraction to them, and Wang Jie is also a super boss in Hollywood......

Listening to the introduction of the organizer's entourage, Wang Jie maintained the necessary etiquette, shaking hands with the people around him almost mechanically, and politely greeting a few words, as for what the other party's name was, he was rarely able to remember.

The reason is very simple, Wang Jie or Hollywood doesn't need them, and they need Hollywood.

Soon, the people gathered in the front hall, under the guidance of the staff, walked towards the largest main screening hall, as the crew of the opening film, Wang Jie and Jodie Foster and others walked at the back, and when they entered, according to the custom, the audience stood up and gave warm applause.

Holding the hands stretched out in front of him, listening to the words of compliments, there is no doubt that Wang Jie has received super courtesy, and the achievements that Wang Jie has achieved over the years, even if he is far away from the North American continent, no one dares to underestimate him, a little guy who is only seventeen years old.

What he represents is huge wealth, countless honors, and the status of the top of Hollywood.

He shook hands with an actor he didn't know in front of him, Wang Jie sat down, and before the opening film screening, the organizer also had some brief ceremonies, mainly to introduce the members of the jury, as well as the main works of the competition, etc.

After a short wait, the lights in the theater were finally turned off, and after a short subtitle on the big screen, the film officially began.

The most thrilling scene in the film "The Silence of the Lambs" is the performance of Hannibal's actor Zeng Jiang, who is worthy of being an outstanding actor whose acting talent is amazing. When Clarice, a federal bureau agent played by Jodie Foster, goes to the psychiatric hospital for the second time to see Hannibal, Hannibal sits quietly behind the bars, staring blankly and deeply ahead. Suddenly, he stuck out his tongue and made a "hiss" sound, as if he was licking something delicious. The performance has no dialogue or almost no movement, but it has a strong effect that is chilling. In "The Silence of the Lambs", Zeng Jiang portrays Hannibal, an intelligent, quick-witted, schizophrenic ogre, with a mesmerizing performance of only 30 minutes. It's a challenging role, and it's beyond the reach of an average actor. The reason why Zeng Jiang can play Hannibal as an alternative character so successfully is entirely due to his artistic endowment and decades of film and television experience necessary for him to be a great actor.

As expected, when the movie ended, it received warm applause from all the moviegoers, and the film was loved by everyone.

At the awards ceremony of this Cannes Film Festival, "The Silence of the Lambs" won the Best Actor and Best Actress awards in one fell swoop, and Ren Dahua also won the temporary new Best Supporting Actor Award.
