Mickey looked at the surging crowd in front of him, his expectant gaze falling on him, and his skin could clearly feel the scorching temperature. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info He thought he would never be able to wait for this day any longer, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly that he could hardly believe it.

"Lance is a great director, I can guarantee that; But a great actor? I had been skeptical about it, and after this shoot, I thought I could shut up. Mickey's joke caused another burst of laughter, "Lance will have a lot of requirements for the performance, and at the same time will have a lot of ideas. Before filming began, Lance gave me the task of contemplating Muffle's entire life on my own. In fact, it's not that hard for me. This simple sentence has a deep meaning, which makes people can't help but think of Mickey's own actual situation, and the scene was a little silent for a while.

However, Mikey has already gone through this mental journey, and he can continue very calmly, "So, in fact, the preparation for the performance began before he officially joined the crew. Once we arrived, Lance and I had a detailed conversation – most of the time I was elaborating, but he also gave my opinion on the script and helped me get a closer look at the character. It was a very new experience for me, and I had already started to get into the role even though I hadn't started acting yet. ”

"Lance has a keen sense of the character and the story, and he can always easily awaken the deep resonance of the character in our hearts, and then we can perform it ourselves, in our own way." Mickey couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lance who was standing aside, "It's a very different experience, it seems simple, but in the actual experience, it is full of struggles, Lance can always find those memories that we will never remember again, this is not a pleasant experience." So, I hate him. I'm serious, I hate him. Mickey emphasised his point of view in all seriousness, "If I had the chance, I would refuse to work with him." ”

Lance accepted the "criticism" calmly, and even nodded his chin slightly, as if he was very satisfied with the evaluation, and the scene erupted in laughter, and Mickey added with a smile, "I think Mr. Tom Cruise should know this very well." The scene burst into laughter again, "Of course, Bruce and Jessica, as well as the other actors in the crew, will have no objections." ”

Mickey immediately handed the microphone to Bruce, "I thought that on an occasion like today, it is not allowed to speak ill of the director." Bruce's first words easily turned the scene into a sea of laughter.

Javier was a little surprised, and the surprise was not that Mickey, Bruce and others praised Lance, on occasions like the premiere, everyone will do their best to save face, even if the relationship is not good, they will whitewash the peace; What surprised him was that the praise of Mickey and Bruce and others was definitely substantial, from the so-called acting interest group of the "Kill with a Knife" crew, to Tom's admiration for Lance, and then to the affirmation of the "Sin City" crew, all of this shows that Lance's position in the hearts of actors is slowly rising.

In fact, the same goes for Mickey and Bruce, including Tom, who are not full of praise for Lance, on the contrary, they are quite critical of the tension within the crew and the training methods of Lance - such a performance in front of the media means a strong dissatisfaction in their hearts, and it is not a joke.

But they all chose to swallow their anger in the end, why? If Tom doesn't lose his temper easily for the sake of image, Mickey and Bruce are not personalities who break their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.

This shows that even if they were dissatisfied, Lance did suppress them with great strength, so that they had to take it orally even if they were not convinced. There's never a shortage of thorns in Hollywood, and Lance may be just one of them; But not all of these thorns have real talent, and those mediocre thorns will only be eliminated by the times and disappear from the public eye, such as Macaulay-Culkin; And a genius like Marlon Brando, who is arrogant and profligate, no matter how troublesome he is, people can't refuse him.

So, could Lance be the second Marlon? makes people hate him to the core, grit their teeth, but they have to fall in love with him. "Only by completely hating him can you avoid falling in love with him." The New York Times once said so about Marlon Brando.

Or, to be more precise, could Lance become a second Warren Beatty? Warren is also one of Hollywood's most famous thorns.

Xavier thought it was a very interesting thing, because it had been a long, long time since there had been such a figure in Hollywood, and it seemed that in the 80s, the stardom with the personality and the maverick star disappeared. Even with grumpy guys like Sean Penn and Al Pacino, they are currying favor with the media and the audience, and the importance of the PR image is increasing little by little, especially after the development of the Internet, it seems that everyone has been given the opportunity to speak, and the road to success for public figures is becoming more and more difficult.

It was once said that it would be difficult to put stars like Marlon Brando, Warren Beatty, and James Dean into the twenty-first century, and even Angelina Jolie began to try to wash her name. So, what about Lancelot-Strello?

"Lance." After the question went around the actors, he actually returned to Lance again, as a director, Lance has won more attention than the actors, "In the process of watching the movie just now, in addition to the comic-style picture composition, I noticed that the use of color and lighting is also very special. This is not the first time you have used this method in your work, can you share with us the different ways you use color and light? What does this do to the performance of the film's theme? ”

This is a very professional question that goes beyond the scope of the film itself. Lance originally thought that the image style of "Sin City" was too prominent, and it was easy to dominate the crowd, causing people to shift their focus, which was the case in the previous life, because of the stylized expression, the story and core of "Sin City" itself were ignored and reduced to a simple and crude commercial film; But surprisingly, there was no such situation tonight, and the caricature that I thought would be the focus of discussion would become the focus of discussion, but none of the issues are related at the moment, and a similar technical problem finally appeared, and the result was still not directly related to the image.

Lance cast his gaze, and then he saw a familiar face, Kirk-Honeycutt, a professional film critic from Film Review magazine.

"Movie Review" is the highest-selling film magazine in the United States, with an average sales of up to 400,000 copies. "Variety" and "Hollywood Reporter" are the most authoritative professional magazines in Hollywood, but the influence of these two magazines is more limited to Hollywood, and the subscribers are almost all from industry practitioners, including agents, screenwriters, producers, managers, etc.; For the majority of audiences, "film criticism" is the representative of the profession, and "Rolling Stone" is similar to the music field.

After the release of "Murder with a Knife", Lance was interviewed by Kirk, which lasted less than thirty minutes, but the two men shared many professional opinions. After that, the "movie review" was also full of praise for the film.

"It's an interesting question, I'm not a professional, and I think it's obviously more appropriate to leave it to our cinematographers and gaffers. However, in order to avoid the premiere becoming a scene for technical discussions, I think it is better to answer the question in a layman's way. The words made the audience laugh again, and some people even shouted, "Explain in detail", Lance laughed dumbly, "It reminds me of the Sundance Film Festival, again." This was said in the direction of Joel Cohen.

"Psychologically, there is a connection between color and emotion, and the same is true for light. So, I want the lens language to be a little bit richer, and I want the audience to have their own ideas when they watch the film, rather than me telling the audience 'what is this'. "For example, if it's red, some people think it's bloody, while others think it's passionate, or violent, or warm, or unrestrained, or oppressive...... Therefore, when the movie screen presents different colors and lights, the experience brought to the audience is also different. That's what I hope to achieve, everyone has their own personal opinion after watching the movie. It could be a liking, or it could be a hate. I'm not quite sure if I've done it, but I'm trying. ”

As soon as Lance's words ended, there was another round of applause from the audience, which made Kirk look back at the noisy crowd behind him. This kind of image, which appears almost exclusively at film festivals, is really rare, and even unusual, for the premiere of a commercial film. But if you think about it, isn't that how he himself? After watching the movie, I didn't look back and forget, but wanted to have more communication with the director and the crew.

Thinking of this, Kirk withdrew his gaze and gave Lance another round of applause.

In fact, it wasn't just Kirk who had this idea, but the reporters and critics who attended tonight's premiere had a similar idea, and they could once again feel Lance's ambition - after "Killing with a Knife", Lance once again experimented with artistic expression in commercial films, and deepened the core of the story, trying to find a balance between business and art.

"Murder by the sword" succeeded, but what about "Sin City"? The sensation of the premiere is just a prologue, and the show has just appeared. (To be continued.) )
