Mo Fei had an idea in his heart, gave Catherine Birog an extremely warm hug, and said very seriously: "Miss Catherine, it's really an honor to meet you, I have seen your director's "Ruthless", it's just amazing, especially the use of the actor Willem Dafoe, which fully meets the requirements of the film for the protagonist, this is the most important ability that a director needs to have, I think he will definitely become famous because of your guidance." ”

These words are not completely flattering nonsense, Willem Dafoe was indeed famous later, becoming one of Hollywood's gold medal supporting actors, "The English Patient", "Life and Death", "Spider-Man" have his wonderful performances. And after experiencing the complete cut of the lens cup of the first appearance in "The Gate of Heaven", this "Ruthless" also gave Willem Dafoe more confidence and courage, and Catherine Birog can be said to be one of the guides who brought him into the world of film.

Chinese pay attention to the right way to make friends, or to throw in love, and Westerners also have such habits. Originally, Catherine Birog was more interested in Mo Fei, and the little joke when she first met made her feel that Mo Fei was very right with her, and now that she was praised by Mo Fei, she was even more willing to make friends with Mo Fei.

Giggled and said, "Mr. Fei, you are too award-winning, how can that movie be as good as you say, if you can have half of what you say, I will be very successful." I've heard Gleason say that almost all of your company's film scripts are written by you, and every script is a perfect fit for the director you've assigned, and the main actors of the film are hand-picked by you, but every time it's a success. Mr. Mo, you're really amazing. This time, I also want to seriously appreciate the "Silence of the Lambs" directed by you yourself, a director with extraordinary talent in screenwriting and actor selection, what a wonderful movie will bring to everyone. I also hope that Mr. Mo, you can give more advice. ”

In his previous life, as the most professional film critic, he watched this film more than 20 times, and many of Hitchcock's films have also been seen many times, and he knows a lot about what the film wants to show, and even every shot is still fresh in his memory.

Now he is directing the film himself. After preparing for so long, the storyboard script alone drew hundreds of pages with reference to memory, and during the filming process, I kept comparing the previous life with my own film. He is confident that his performance can at least reach the level of Jonathan Demmi more than 70%, coupled with so much preparation made in advance, and the almost perfect performance of Koshie and Honami Suzuki, this "Silence of the Lambs" can almost have the fire of nearly 90% in the previous life.

There is also a five-year time gap between the nineties and the present. Five years can change the world a lot. Including aesthetics and technology, etc., it is completely earth-shaking changes. If you get a work that is close to nine points five years later, it is another film that wins with a plot, how can it be around nine and a half minutes, and it can still stand the test completely.

And this film is still edited by himself, and after the film came out, I watched it carefully twice, compared with the one in my previous life, except that Honami's performance was not very sophisticated. Even the evolutionary killer Wu Zhenyu has played extraordinarily, almost comparable to Jonathan Demmy's version.

But such words could not come out of his own mouth. That's a bit too immodest, and it will even make people think that he is a proud and frivolous person, and it is impossible for such a person to be recognized by others.

Mo Fei shrugged his shoulders and expressed his surprise at Catherine Birog's statement, and said: "I will definitely understand your words as a kind of comfort in disguise, I have never systematically studied art and directing, just a halfway director, this time because I really can't find a suitable director, so I have to go into battle in person, and professional directors are completely incomparable." ”

"Mo, you're too modest, that's not good." Sure enough, after Mo Fei finished speaking, Jackson began to express his opinion, saying: "Sometimes I really don't understand why you have two completely different manifestations in you." You can wear a classical Chinese formal dress to the Berlinale to receive an award, and you can also show enough confidence in your own films; But sometimes with a kind of extreme humility unique to Chinese, even unwilling to accept praise from others, so how do the two different personalities integrate into you alone.

I have seen the film "The Silence of the Lambs" during the test screening, and it is indeed a good film, and it is definitely a great director who can make films that are not thriller, suspenseful, and crime-like, and there are only a handful of people who can do this. Let me give you a suggestion, if you want to win an award for this film, you must take out the kind of confidence you had when you were a director, let everyone see your confidence in this film, and use your attitude to influence those judges, otherwise with your current attitude, you will definitely not be able to win the award. ”

Could it be that he was completely confused by Jackson's words, he didn't want to admit it, it was to avoid others saying that he was proud, didn't Jackson say it later. But why did Jackson involve the topic of winning the award, could it be that there was any rumor revealed at the test screening, what kind of award would it be, and the only one called the Oscar in the United States is the Oscar.

The "Silence of the Lambs" in the previous life did win the Oscar, Hannibal, the serial murderer with the highest IQ in film history, helped the film win five awards, including the four most important ones, does it mean that his version of "The Silence of the Lambs" also has hope of winning the Oscar?

Catherine Birog didn't expect this film to have such an evaluation, before she only thought that Mo Fei was a great producer, with quite a great talent in screenwriting and other aspects, and she must have some means to be a director, but now when she heard Jackson say this, she who is familiar with Hollywood and the American film industry immediately thought of the same content as Mo Fei.

After a brief shock, Catherine Birog also congratulated Mo Fei at the first time, saying: "Oh, it's amazing, I must congratulate you in advance." Gleason has a good appreciation for cinema, and some of the people he contacts are very vocal about it, and if one of those people says something, then it is likely to become a reality, at least in the case of the film. And whether you can win the award, in addition to the quality of the film itself, there must be some other conditions as a booster, and Mr. Mo, your attitude is the most important point. ”

It's not that I didn't think that "The Silence of the Lambs" would be on the Oscars, but I just thought about it at the time, it was not so easy to really get the Oscars, but now I got a message from Jackson that seemed very likely, and my heart had already rolled into a piece.

But Jackson's words can only be said here, don't say the rest he doesn't know yet, even if he knows, he may not be able to say it, although Oscar's affairs are somewhat transparent, but even if it is transparent, it must be counted as a secret, he can't be the one who breaks the glass cover, at least not until he really participates in Oscar, and how difficult it is to get involved.

Who knows that his film may have a chance to compete for the Oscar, and he will no longer be so relaxed, Mo Fei's performance will be completely normal, if he continues to talk and laugh as freely as he did just now, and behave lightly, it will make people think that there is something wrong with him.

Jackson also understood Mo Fei's mood now, raised his wrist and looked at his watch, and said: "Everyone, we are going to watch the premiere of "The Silence of the Lambs" together today, and now there is still about half an hour to squander for us, why don't we just have a cup of coffee, this time can only do this." ”

"I really wish time could pass a little faster, and I've asked Gleason more than once in person or on the phone in the past few days to get a little bit of the plot of the movie, but he didn't say a word about anything, and now that I know that this film is so good, I can't wait to be in the cinema right now." Catherine Birog has never participated in the Oscars, but she also understands Mo Fei's mood at this time, and her words to herself will be just as uncalm, when someone says something light, it will make Mo Fei's mood less tense, and the most suitable person for this role is naturally her as Mo Fei's peer.

A few people drank a cup of coffee unhurriedly, Mo Fei's state also eased up, the Oscar and the Golden Horse Awards, the Hong Kong Film Awards are not much different, but the Oscars are more affirmatively significant, after experiencing the Academy Awards and the Golden Horse Awards, there should not be much problem in the face of the Oscars, there are so many good films in your hands, why care so much about the first time, there will be opportunities in the future.

The café was close to the movie theater, and the four of them walked to it, and Jackson took out the invitation ticket that had already been prepared, took a seat and waited for the movie to begin.

Soon, the lights in the cinema dimmed and the film began to play.

The film has two clues, the bright line is how the female policeman played by Honami Suzuki hunts down the psychopathic murderer, and the dark line is the plot of the escape from prison of a psychiatrist who was strictly imprisoned for killing people and eating his body organs.

At the beginning of the story, Honami was still an intern and was sent to talk to Koshie Jiang to do the so-called "psychological investigation" of the boss, this paragraph is indeed a bit of a "silent lamb" flavor, talking to a person who is much older than himself, and he is also a "psychopath" person, which is definitely difficult for a strong man, in fact, it is better to say that it is an indirect contest between Honami's boss and Hannibal.
