Chapter 67: The Toronto Film Festival

Scarlett Johansson is a little chubby. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Many people know this, in order to make her image in the movie capable, three weeks ago, Shen Lin asked her to lose more than ten kilograms, at least not to look bloated.

After all, Scarlett is a professional actor, and she has lost weight very successfully, although the sheer size of her chest is still obvious, her entire waist has indeed lost a lot of weight.

According to Shen Lin's request, she also cut her hair short.

The spacesuit is built by NASA itself, of course, it can't be compared with the real spacesuit, at least in terms of weight, it definitely needs to be cut - after all, the real spacesuit weighs about 7KG, and the Chinese spacesuit is heavier, reaching 15KG!

It is really difficult for the actors to perform in such heavy clothes, so the spacesuit specially created by NASA is only about 3KG, although it looks advanced, but in fact there are only two layers of down, which is not very warm.

You know, it's Iceland!

The Bruner Sendo Lagoon looks deep from a distance, but it is actually shallow, only a few tens of centimeters deep, and it can be used as a live action shooting on the water in the landing zone of the water planet in the movie.

For this shooting, Shen Lin specially asked the actors to take measures to keep warm, after all, the temperature is below zero in Iceland, and it is easy for the body to lose consciousness when it is completely soaked in water!

Despite all the emphasis, Scarlett Johansson almost couldn't feel her toes during the shoot and even developed hypothermia.

To be honest, Shen Lin was ruthless enough, even if he noticed the girl's abnormality, he didn't care about it, after all, all the staff, cars, and big objects were soaked in the ocean.

Because one person delayed the shooting, it really outweighed the loss, and Scarlett's low temperature state is very in line with the image of the characters in the play!

After the filming was completed, Shen Lin ordered several assistants to pack Scarlett and send her to California overnight.

To add, it's the hospitals in California.

Of course, as a director, Shen Lin must have comforted a few words, just verbally comforted, and his body did not make any action, as an Asian, Shen Lin's aesthetics are normal!

I don't understand why many people think that Scarlett Johansson is beautiful, with so short legs, and an obvious 5:5 figure, if it weren't for the lips and the big murderer, it would be estimated that it would be the level of Teacher Cang!

In fact, it is normal for Hollywood directors to have a relationship with actors, the most obvious example is when "Transformers 3" went to China for promotion, Rosie Huntington-Wheatley served director Michael Bay well on the plane, and many people witnessed it with their own eyes!

The big-mouthed sweetheart Julia Roberts slept all the way from assistant director to producer in order to star in "Pretty Woman"!

If Shen Lin wants to have a relationship with the widow sister that goes beyond normal, the widow sister should not refuse!

……

By the time the Icelandic scene is over, it's already early September!

Everything was back on track, the entire crew moved to California, and then, Shen Lin took Matthew to Toronto, Canada on the same day!

Because the 38th Toronto International Film Festival has opened.

Whether "Dallas Buyers Club" can be a hit depends on this film festival!

In the entire North American context, Matthew's popularity far exceeds that of Shen Lin, the director, so it is the right choice to call Matthew!

The Toronto International Film Festival's reputation is gradually becoming louder and more influential, with more than hundreds of films being screened and traded here every year, and many Hollywood blockbusters are invited to come to Taobao.

Compared with the big brother Venice Film Festival, the Toronto Film Festival is an out-and-out little brother, but now, the influence of the big brother is getting weaker and weaker, and there are many third countries that will participate in Venice as an honor, with the decline of its status, more people focus on the Toronto International Film Festival, which is backed by the North American market.

Venice still adheres to its own 'neo-realism' style, high and low!

But the world has changed, and it is really difficult for people to appreciate art films that are too high.

In addition, in recent years, the Toronto Film Festival seems to have become a previous stop for 'Rushing' films, "American Beauty", "Slumdog Millionaire", "Brokeback Mountain", "The King's Speech", "Escape from Tehran", almost every film that won the Oscar for Best Picture has shined at the Toronto Film Festival, which has led to more directors and producers being more willing to bring their films to the Toronto Film Festival!

Many people may ask, why don't the Oscars and most of the world's film festivals treat the comedy or sci-fi films that sell well at the box office, nonsense, you are a box office hit, and you still want to win awards, do you want to be ashamed?

The arrival of Shen Lin and his group was warmly welcomed by the organizers.

There are no absolute secrets in Hollywood, and Shen Lin's "Dallas Buyers Club", which took less than 20 days to shoot, has long been a secret.

Many people have heard who this movie will be the litmus test of this year's main Olympic movie.

has only heard of it and never seen it with his own eyes, and now Shen Lin appeared at the Toronto Film Festival with "Dallas Buyers Club".

There is no doubt that he is here for the biggest award - the People's Choice Award!

There is reason to expect this young director, who is not yet twenty-five years old.

The reason why the yet-to-be-released "Dallas Buyers Club" has such a big name is due to the publicity of the touchstone and Jared's strong fan base.

Many people know that Matthew and Jared lost dozens of pounds to complete the filming!

As the distributor of the film, Litmus Rock arranged a total of ten screenings for "Dallas Buyers Club" at the Toronto Film Festival, and from the first screening, the venue was full, even if Shen Lin and Matthew did not appear in the next few screenings, the attendance rate reached more than 95%!

On the first day of the Toronto Film Festival, "Dallas Buyers Club" was screened for a total of three times, and even the opening film "The Fifth Estate" was screened at the same time, and the reputation seemed to be very good, but the reputation of the media, professionals and audiences was completely suppressed.

Especially the mainstream media in North America seems to be disgusted by the too correct political nature of "12 Years a Slave", and they are as excited as chicken blood, scrambling to stand up and support this film.

Therefore, Lao Mei's media is really painful, he wants to scold you for flattery if he is politically correct, and he says that you are a traitor if he is politically incorrect!

"If "Dallas Buyers Club" had a different director, this story might have been made into a story of personal heroism, but in the hands of the young director Shen Lin, Weiye was subtracted, this is a documentary-like shooting technique, there is almost no dramatic blessing, the story and characters are the protagonists of the movie, this is a film without showmanship, excluding complicated shooting skills, and the soundtrack is basically only piano music. This kind of cold and restrained expression has the shocking effect of listening to thunder in a silent place! ”

- Los Angeles Times

"I think it's a blessing for Hollywood to be able to produce such a movie, because if you meet a vulgar director, the whole movie will definitely add a lot of drama, and the movie may become a different tone. Fortunately, this is a film from a thoughtful director, Shen Lin obviously suppressed his expression, did not overly sensationalize, and paved the rhythm of the real movie very gently. ”
