It's a time for Langley.
Not only the audience, not only the actors and friends, but also the director Rodrigo Cortez stood up, raised his hands high, clapped hard, and his eyes twinkled with excitement and joy!
No one knows better than Rodriguez how much lenley has paid and experienced for the film“ The whole work of "buried alive" is lanli's one-man play. He presents this wonderful work with one person's strength. Even Rodriguez, as a director and editor, has seen the whole work countless times, but at this moment, when he sees the full version again on the big screen, the shock is still not weakened. On the contrary, his excitement is more and more turbulent, giving all the applause, all the contributions and all the salutes to Lan Li.
The surging emotion surged like a tide, as if lanli was the center of the vortex. All praise, all madness and all respect were boiling and rolling around lanli. The mixed emotion reverberated and shocked in his chest, so that there was a moment's blank in his brain.
Looking up, Langley saw the bright smile on Ryan Gosling's face, shaking his head and clapping his hands, shouting, "madman, you are a madman, madman!" As he spoke, he began to laugh.
Lamy, who was standing beside him, raised his thumbs to lanli and exclaimed. Then he whistled directly, leading James and other people around him to follow him; But even so, Lamy was still in the mood. Then he saw Lamy patting Ryan on the shoulder, and the two of them got close and bit their ears. A bright smile immediately appeared on Ryan's face.
Before Lan Li could react, he saw Lamy raise his hands high, beating his hands and jumping with the rhythm. He began to shout, "Lan Li! Lanli! Blue
Next to Ryan also joined the ranks of Lamy, two people just like kangaroos, a jump, face full of smile even more dazzling than the sun, shouting one after another, "blue! Blue Soon, those friends of lanli understood it, and they also learned from it. They jumped up and cried out, "lanli!"
For the audience in the screening hall, more than 90% of the people may not know who "lanli" is, or even have never heard of the name, but in the fanatical atmosphere, everyone imitated it one after another, jumping, shouting, jubilating, celebrating, showing the madness and enthusiasm of the film festival incisively and vividly.
Chanel was startled by Tessa. Tessa shook her head wildly and her long hair was flying in the air. It didn't look like a film festival, but like a music festival. Music Festival? The thought flashed through my mind, and then Chanel began to jump, "blue! Blue When the first cry came out, it seemed to break the dimensional wall, that kind of happiness, that kind of wonderful, let her want to scream.
And so she did, "lenley!"
The whole screening Hall presents an incredible scene. The audience are jumping and shouting. The neat and uniform scene is really spectacular. The reporters' eyes twinkle with amazement. They turn to look at the boiling crowd behind them. Although the Toronto Film Festival has always been famous for its hospitality, it is rare to see such a scene in ten years.
Gavin also wants to scream, he also wants to jump, he also wants to join the ranks of the carnival, but the reporter's professional instinct makes him have to calm down and quickly use the camera to record the grand scene, but the boiling blood makes him follow the rhythm of everyone, start shaking his feet, and can't stop.
Lanli looks at Lamy and Ryan, with a smile, but with a trace of helplessness. These two people are typical of making noise blindly. He can't help but stand up and walk to the open space in front of the seat under the attention of the public, as if walking to the Broadway Dance stage. After the performance, he accepts the applause of the whole audience and expresses his thanks in the way of curtain call.
Some strange, and some familiar.
Lan Li stood in the center, bathed in the light, in front of a black, face seems to be blurred into a piece, only a boiling sea. Lanli seriously looked at the ocean of applause, cheering and cheering, and enjoyed his time openly. At this moment, he let himself wander.
The applause lasted more than ten minutes. It seemed that there was no end to it. It couldn't stop. Then, Randy invited Rodriguez to accept the baptism of applause, which made the whole scene full of crying and howling, and the audience tried their best to express their love for the film. This, obviously, was not expected by reporters.
Of course, this is also the essence of the festival - to provide a platform for those film lovers to find more works of art, independent works and niche works. In addition to the commercial films released in the major theaters, the festival will enrich the diversity and diversity of the film market. Therefore, an independent work that no one pays attention to has won the full house in the film festival, which is exactly the most wonderful place of the film festival.
The 35th Toronto Film Festival has entered its fifth day since its opening. The most popular work so far is undoubtedly "blue Valentine's Day", which has received super high treatment of standing up and clapping for 10 minutes from the audience. The subsequent film critics have not spared their praise. It is generally believed that this work has a good chance to make a big show in this year's award season.
However, the Toronto Film Festival does not focus on awards. The highest awards every year are elected by the audience. People choose awards. Therefore, compared with film critics, the audience's pursuit is the most direct and effective. For example, at this moment, "buried alive" is enjoying more applause than "blue Valentine's Day".
Although the "buried alive" screening hall can only accommodate 300 people, far less than the "blue Valentine's Day" premiered in the main venue; Although the quality of "buried alive" journalists is more like fulfilling their duties, far less than the enthusiasm of "blue Valentine's Day"; However, the applause for more than ten minutes really conveyed people's love for "burying alive".
After the applause finally stopped, lanli's first sentence was, "all the cells on your palms should be dead. Go back and remember to have a good rest. Don't take part in the premieres of other films. "
Pun, not only joked about the applause just now, but also joked about the "city robber" - today, almost everyone's focus is on the latter, so that "buried alive" is ignored. Such humorous words immediately attracted a lot of laughter, even the reporters could not help laughing.
During the question session, Gavin even couldn't wait for lanli to call the roll. The first one couldn't help standing up. Such an impatient action made everyone laugh. Today's reporters were not prepared enough, and their enthusiasm for asking questions could not be compared with the popularity of "blue Valentine's Day", so Gavin stood up alone.
Gavin didn't care at all. He took the microphone from the staff. "Director, the first question is for you. I want to ask you, why did you choose Langley hall as the hero? This is a complete one-man movie. It's very bold to choose a newcomer who doesn't have any big screen experience. And what do you think of his performance? "
Unexpectedly, Gavin didn't ask Langley a question, but left it to Rodriguez.
Rodriguez was a little surprised, but after hearing the question, he calmed down. "To tell you the truth, Langley is not my first choice. As you said, before this movie, I didn't know lenley at all, and I didn't hear of an actor named lenley hall. He took the initiative to audition, he convinced me with his performance, more accurately, he shocked me with his performance. I knew for the first time that acting can be so powerful. "
At this point, Rodriguez turned his head to look at Lan Li, who was standing next to him. Lan Li nodded with a smile and seemed to enjoy the praise very much. When he found Rodriguez's sight, Lan Li also turned his head, raised his right hand and motioned to Rodriguez to "continue", as if he had not heard enough. It's like a little boy getting full marks on a school test and hearing his parents showing off to others, holding his chest high, proud and satisfied.
There was a lot of laughter.
Rodriguez could not help but smile. "As you have just seen, there is only one actor in the whole film. Of course, there are other actors outside the picture who have contributed their voices. We must thank them for their efforts. But it is undeniable that the performance of Langley is the soul of the whole work. I'm not sure what you think, But my idea is... "Rodriguez didn't say anything more, but directly gave applause. The whistle and scream immediately rang out, accompanied by another burst of applause.
Nothing is more direct and effective than this reaction.
Bradley couldn't wait to stand up, hoping to get a second chance to ask questions. But he didn't expect that he had already grabbed it fast enough, and there were still some people standing up at the same time. Bradley looked back and found that there were more than one, Daisy Lucas of vanity fair, Cornell McGregor of entertainment weekly, and "Seattle Post" Eli - Wallach and others all stood up, including Bradley, including a full six people!
"Don't worry. I'm standing here. I should have a lot of time today. I think everyone has the opportunity to ask questions. In order to avoid the backwardness, let's take our time. " Lanli's ridicule made everyone laugh again. "Daisy, let's ask the second question first. It's absolutely not because Daisy is the only woman among the six that I chose
Daisy shrugged. "I don't mind, as long as the opportunity is mine." That magnanimous and banter's appearance, has not had time to calm the laughter resounds again.
