In fact, there are already two films that will definitely win awards, one is a gangster.

The director of this film is Spike Lee, the standard-bearer of black films, and it is about the comedy of a black police officer who accidentally goes undercover to the 3 Klux Klan, and his attitude is resolutely satirical and critical of the current political ecology of the United States, which is very much in line with Cate Blanchett's appetite!

There is also a very mediocre work of the Daughter of the Sun, full of feminist slogans of Kurdish female fighters against fundamentalist terrorists with the label of Western imagination!

Chinese art films have fallen into a bottleneck in the past two or three years, and a more significant indicator is that it is still difficult to pick out suitable films to be shortlisted for Cannes when Cannes wants to win over the Chinese film market.

On the 70th anniversary of Cannes last year, Fan Bingbing was invited to be a judge, but he couldn't pick a suitable film, and Li Ruijun was selected at the last moment to pass through the future.

But judging from the final response, this should be a relatively reluctant choice, or it is very likely to choose a Chinese film.

A general feeling is that with the rapid development of the Chinese film market, from the perspective of the commercial market, Cannes needs to attract the entire Chinese film industry, and there are more and more Chinese buyers coming to Cannes;

But on the other hand, compared with the 90s and the beginning of the new century, the current Chinese art films have fallen into a relative creative trough.

The fifth generation has completely withdrawn from the stage of history, and the sixth generation now only Lou Huohua and Jia Zhangke still maintain relatively high-quality artistic creation, the downturn of Hong Kong films has been a day or two, and the wave of Taiwan's new films has long passed, and a new generation of directors has not emerged.

As a result, on the top stage of Cannes, the once wave of Chinese-language films has begun to give way to South American and Southeast Asian films.

Of course, Cannes is very concerned about the Chinese market, the world's second largest film market, not virtual!

Then Xiaobai's work was sent.

Ordinary fans in Europe may not know Bai Xiaofei's name, the Cannes Organizing Committee is not an ordinary person, people have long made your bottom clear, they think that Bai Xiaofei is already the leader of the younger generation in the Chinese film industry!

If you can cultivate it into a descendant, hehe, you know...

Therefore, the screening room arranged for them is the largest screening room in the entire Cannes Palais du Cinema in the Lumière Hall!

……

When the crew arrived in Cannes, the first thing they did was definitely publicity.

After receiving the invitation to participate in the exhibition, the publicity department of the studio has begun to prepare, and has also made a batch of albums and brochure designs, and finally Xiaobai selected one, printed it, and sent it before the crew arrived in Cannes.

On top of that, of course, posters and the like!

Cannes has a strong business atmosphere, and you can see a bunch of movie posters everywhere!

The Festival de Cannes is simple and complex, and it is said to be simple because of the same program every year;

Every year in mid-April, the Organizing Committee of the Cannes Film Festival holds a press conference in Paris to announce the list of films shortlisted for the main competition of that year.

Cannes in May will welcome filmmakers, stars, film companies, journalists, film critics and countless film fans from all over the world, each of whom will gather in this small town in the south of France under the name of "cinema" to play their part in the crazy machine of the "film festival".

It's complicated because behind Cannes, like Hollywood and the Oscars, is full of all sorts of factors behind the table.

On the surface, however, the Cannes Film Festival is as glamorous and lively.

The film circle is not only an art circle, but also a closed "interpersonal circle" that is difficult for outsiders to break into.

There is a so-called "lineage" in Cannes, and even, the three major European film festivals have a lineage.

Different from the concept of "climbing relationships through the back door" or even "unspoken rules" in the minds of Chinese, the formation of Cannes "lineage" is more derived from the tradition and phenomenon of "circles" in Western society.

The French are passionate about and strictly adhere to the rules of the circle, not only in the film industry, but also in the fashion, business and even all walks of life.

"It's not that a family doesn't enter a house", but when you enter the "house", you must abide by the "family rules" and, if necessary, unite with the outside world.

The Cannes Film Festival is a high-end mansion door, and the role of the artistic director is roughly equivalent to that of a gatekeeper and housekeeper, so naturally not everyone is qualified to walk through this door. In the context of multiculturalism, the generation of an international family of concubines is a more mysterious thing, which is different from the "relationship" in the eyes of Chinese, of course, relying on intimate history, but its formation is not obtained by misdeeds or pure monetary transactions, at least need to meet the high expectations of Cannes symbols in terms of artistic style, ideological expression, creative perspective, identity background and other aspects.

If it once takes a fancy to you, spring will come.

At the very least, once a year, the directors of the lineage may get the attention of the world's flash, and their film posters may be printed with the icon of the Cannes Film Festival, a killer feature of film marketing that will help them stand out in the film market.

The names of Cannes directors are almost universally known in the fan film industry, such as the Darnay brothers, Ken Lodge, Mike Lee, Lars von Trier, Almodóvar, Naomi Kawase, Ceylon, etc...

A few more words of genius boy Dolan, the so-called luck must not be a pie smashed from the sky out of thin air, since the age of 19 and Cannes relationship, Dolan has been riding the Cannes Express all the way to achieve advanced growth.

At the age of 25, he won the Special Jury Prize alongside Godard, a mythical veteran of the film industry, and cried red eyes at the awards ceremony, and encouraged film teenagers all over the world not to give up their dreams easily, and finally hugged the chairman of the jury, Campayne, like a mother and son.

How many red-eyed young artists can only sigh: What is the reason for this?

Talent and unique thinking vision are of course the first priority, and luck is also essential to have the opportunity to be photographed.

But genius teenagers are not a few in the world, Dolan's luck is not only full of talent and the opportunity to be seen, but also thanks to the fact that he is full of various elements that are eagerly needed by Cannes: born and raised in French-speaking Quebec, can speak English and French bilingually, has an acting family background, debuted as an actor at the age of 4, and accumulated a certain amount of fame and reputation in the local area in his teens, good looks and temperament, homosexuality, introverted and not exaggerated, and all this is simply born for Cannes.

Other genius teenagers, it is better to accept their fate obediently.

In short, the Cannes Film Festival deeply embodies humanistic characteristics in terms of logic, selection criteria, and concept shaping, and in the end, the film is the director's film, and the director becomes a director with the mark of Cannes, and the film that has won the Palme d'Or is forbidden to participate in any other international film festival, and the films shortlisted for the official selection must be marked with the words "Official Selection" of the Cannes Film Festival on their various promotional materials!

The author's idea of pre-creation is actually admirable, after all, art is also full of charm because of the individual.

Therefore, if Truman's world wins the award, it is likely that it will only be because Cannes needs Bai Xiaofei!

Every year, the Chinese media asks countless times: "Will any Chinese-language films be shortlisted for Cannes this year?" Or ask, "Why are our films getting farther and farther away from Cannes and Venice?" ”

Or, or ask yourself from a different angle, "What kind of Chinese-language films do you need in Cannes?" Or, "Why do Chinese films have to go to Cannes?" ”

When there is a shortage of seats for Chinese films on the Cannes stage, perhaps we should reflect not only on the issue of the film industry, but also on the question of whether Chinese film directors can stick to their creations with their personal style and perspective in the entire creative environment, without being kidnapped by reality. And, of course, there is the question of whether or not you want to be kidnapped by Cannes.

The reality is like this, even Bai Xiaofei wants to go to Cannes to gild, you can imagine what other directors think!

……

What is the most important thing as a director?

Of course the movie is popular!

A box office hit!

The rest of the awards and the like, those are all subsidiary values, Truman's world, from the perspective of the movie itself, the possibility of a big hit is not very large, but after all, it is Bai Xiaofei's work, it is still easy to get a box office of 5 or 600 million, if you can use the Cannes platform to sell the movie to Europe and North America, it will be even better!

As for the Cannes Film Festival, you still have to come, but if you can win the award after you come, there is no pressure at all, and the purpose of coming is actually very simple: people always have dreams, what if they come true?

Hollywood's globalization proves that commercial cinema is king.

As for films like Truman's world, if you have the creativity to shoot it in the future, forget it if you don't have an idea...
