Chapter 524: The Great Heat

"Lack of expressiveness is a common problem for most directors in China, but Jiang Wen's problem is that he is too expressive. I don't know why he used this technique to make a struggling movie, those few scenes parodying "Rashomon" are just terrible! I hope to see a Jiang Wen who goes further than "The Devil is Coming", rather than using those fancy tricks to disguise the pale Jiang Wen of the narrative. ”

- The Guardian

"Half a good movie + a group of good actors! The first half seems to be exaggerated, and the director may be trying to show off his camera skills, but unfortunately it only makes people feel cumbersome. The second half is extremely exciting, it is the most fulfilling viewing enjoyment of this film festival, and the actors in it are very good, and it is one of the best actors group drama this year. Especially Chu, he can completely remove the word 'one'. ”

- "Variety"

Jiang Wen tried to include the separation of China's rural society from urban society, the conflict of collective interests brought about by national change, and the impact and persistence of personal values. Obviously, he did not succeed completely, and several places that should be clearly portrayed were filmed in a chaotic manner, and even a word. Of course, Chu saved the film with his performance, and he was more infectious and in control than in "The Blind Well", especially the long shot of 5 minutes and 42 seconds at the end, which was simply exciting and shivering - which is why I sincerely recommend "Murdere" to you. ”

- "The Screen"

The next day, both Cannes magazines and the mainstream media commented on Murdere.

The views are more consistent, thinking that the film is okay, but Jiang Wen is definitely substandard. The domestic media is more direct, feeling that Lao Jiang has been held back for five years, and when he woke up, he found that the Qing Dynasty had died, and he was a little confused.

It's not that this film is bad, but his subjective consciousness is too strong, when the director wants to tell a story seriously. It must be subordinated to the film as a whole, and the so-called personality style can only be used as an aid, or as a flash of inspiration.

For example, the little girl in red in "Schindler's List", such as the scene where Ma Dajun's head was beheaded in "The Devil is Coming", are all typical examples.

And Lao Jiang's mistake is a mistake, he stuffed his author's emotions into the movie and played "One Step Away" in advance.

European and American audiences like to play style directors, but first you have to reach the level of the founding school, there is Bergman, there is Fellini. There's Truffaut, there's Two Smoking Guns, there's Lola Run, there's Rhapsody in the Black Shop, and that's a new structural model.

As for Jiang Wen's brain, it is still a little worse, how to control his excessive desire to express himself, which is also a limiting factor for whether he can become a master.

In the end, Murdere received a media rating of 2.5. tied for sixth place with "Glory Years" and "Cleopatra". At the top of the list is "The Return", with a score of 3.4, the only work that has passed 3.

However, contrary to the evaluation of the movie, the mainland heavenly group led by Chu Qing. But it was unanimously praised. Foreigners are very surprised, it is rare to see such a bullish group of actors in a Chinese movie, which has more or less increased face.

Feng Xiaogang, Lou Ye. Zhang Ziyi and others congratulated him one after another, and made another masterpiece. Of course. In such a delicate atmosphere, it is inevitable that some thoughts will arise, like a trembling spirit, but it is inconvenient to express them.

……

The people at the scene maintained restraint, didn't care about the in China, and didn't use the company to build momentum at all, and the manuscripts sent back by those reporters properly ignited the enthusiasm of the fans.

"The boss won't win the actor * emperor this time, I'll eat live broadcast!" Netizen fat super.

"Do I watch the boss win the prize, or do I watch you eat? Oops, what a contradiction! "Netizen Nine Sisters.

"This question is simple, the landlord eats first, if the boss doesn't win the prize, you spit it out again, and no one loses!" Netizens stranded.

"Huangkou Xiaoer, don't be crooked! It is said that the old man pinched his fingers, three days later it is the zodiac auspicious, this seat will be on the stage to be a god, the Chinese Chu, majestic and strategic, can be described as the actor * emperor! "Netizen ring.

"The Chinese upstairs is taught by the physiology teacher, right? What kind of god is the actor? Netizen Xiao Jin.

"Same question, by the way, what kind of breed is the physiology teacher, I have never seen it." Netizens jumped.

"Physiology teacher, it's a good thing to touch your head and feet to help you check your body!" Netizen Little Sun.

They turned the sky upside down, and the print media was not idle, anyway, they didn't spend money, and readers liked to read it. The disciplined ones are quite cautious, using conservative descriptions such as "maybe" and "opportunity". If you don't have a discipline, you don't care about it, and the words are chiseled, it seems that Chu Qing has already made up his mind.

And Sister Wang saw that the momentum was a little too big, so she quickly contacted the media to press it down, so as not to lose face when she got it. The discussion has eased, omitting the gratuitous noise, but leaning on professionally.

A large number of inexplicable people popped up and began to analyze the tastes of the judges, the quality of the competing works, the selection habits of Cannes, etc., flickering and decent. Among them, the article of film critic Bi Chenggong has attracted the most attention:

According to Wang Jiawei's taste, it seems that European works are easy to get high evaluations, but the sullen sunglasses Lao Wang will also give unexpected results.

I think it's far from his style, but the dark horse work "Fast Food Country", which is secretly consistent, is obviously the Palme d'Or. Although the starting point of the prediction is based on my own subjective expectations, I would like to believe that Lyncolet, who almost never misses.

Once "Fast Food Empire" is on the throne, the chances of the Grand Jury Prize and Best Director going to the master increase accordingly, Ken? Lodge and Almodóvar are both expected to win. My personal opinion is that Ken Loach won the Best Director Award, and Almodóvar won the Grand Jury Prize.

As for the actor and actress, to be honest, there are no actors who are too outstanding. Personally leaning towards Kate? Blanchett and Penelope Cruz won the crown, and the male lead was more complicated. Macchimeer, Bigceylon, Buaguia, and even Brad Pitt all had a chance to win, but of course, all of that was completely disrupted after Murdere came along.

Out of support for the truth and my compatriots, I still think Chu Qing's performance is a little bit higher than theirs.

To sum up, my prediction results are quantified as follows:

Palme d'Or:

Fast Food Nation, five stars. "The Return", five stars. "Tower of Babel", four and a half stars.

Actress candidates:

Cate Blanchett, five stars. Penelope Cruz, four-and-a-half stars. Tony Karan, four stars.

Actors:

Chu Qing, five stars. Micchimeier, five stars. Bigceylon, four and a half stars. Buagia, four stars. ”

After sex, before going to bed.

After tossing for two hours, Fan Xiaoye was still as energetic as a little leopard. There was no way, as soon as she remembered the scene of the audience cheering for her husband at the end of the premiere, she couldn't help but feel hot all over her body.

At this time, she was pillowing Chu Qing's arm, and her little hand was gently circled on that solid chest.

In fact, she didn't know how to draw a circle for Mao, but many heroines of novels were keen on this action, so she tried it.

"Brother, are you asleep?"

Fan Xiaoye paddled for a while, feeling very bored, so he shook it down, feeling the weight of two and a half catties, very down-to-earth.

"Hmm."

Chu Qing closed his eyes and snorted through his nose.

The commercial promotion of his daughter-in-law has been over, and he has been idle recently, but he is just the opposite, and as the voices of fans and the media are getting higher and higher, the number of activities inviting him to attend has skyrocketed instantly.

Most of them are European and American filmmakers and filmmakers, and occasionally there are two luxury brands holding cocktail parties, which are nothing more than a set of relationships. Some can not go, some have to go, and they are tired to death for a day.

And when the girl saw him lying on his stomach, she couldn't help shaking the things in her hand and said, "Don't sleep, talk to me." ”

"Don't make a fuss, I'm sleepy!"

Chu Qing turned over to herself, leaving her a back.

"Oops!"

She chirped over, and as soon as her legs straddled, she completely wrapped around him, and asked, "Do you think you can win the award this time?" ”

"I don't know."

"Guess what!"

"I can't guess for sure."

"No, you have to say it!"

The girl was like going over a mountain, arching to the other side with great difficulty, and asked face to face.

"What can I do if I don't take it? Sister, will you let me sleep? "He's a little impatient.

“……”

Fan Xiaoye climbed back angrily, staring at the ceiling in a daze, and after half a sound, he didn't know what he thought, and laughed again.

I played by myself for a long time, but I couldn't resist the sleepiness and hung on my husband to sleep.

……

The film festival closed on the 28th, and on the first day, the Un Certain Regard unit took the lead in awarding awards. Wang Chao lived up to Fang Li's cultivation and won the Best Film Award with "Summer in Jiangcheng".

And Lou Ye didn't receive the invitation letter from the organizer, so he had to take Guo Xiaodong and Hao Lei back to China, and he didn't tell Chu Qing that Xu was in a complicated mood.

Also returning is the crew of "Night Banquet", it is said that the film is very successful, Chu Qing doesn't like to deal with Huayi's gang now, and he doesn't know whether it's true or false, it's all water.

The film festival is coming to an end, the noise is gradually stopping, and the group is coming and going, and the town is a lot empty. All he had to do was done, and all that was left was to wait quietly for the results.

Xu is because of the influence of the media environment, everyone says that you are popular, you are popular, and I can't help but have some fantasies, when I was in Berlin, there were not so many people to help.

You can pay attention to this kind of thing, but don't take it seriously. Fortunately, he is not the kind of guy who is almost paranoid about the award, if he doesn't get it, he will be disappointed for a while.

In the last two days of Cannes, Chu Qing thought that he would spend it like this, but on the evening of the 27th, someone suddenly came to the door. It was a middle-aged American woman named Tina, who claimed to be an employee of Saltmill Films.

The woman spoke very directly, and wanted to find him to play the lead role in a play called "DarkMatter". (To be continued......)
