"Joel, how do you use the photographic light this time? With the story going on, the light seems to change a little, but it doesn't seem to change. Does this have any influence on the story's shaping? "
"Ethan, can you talk about the live performance of this movie? As we all know, most of the songs are performed live, so how do you capture the singing emotions of the actors? "
"Justin, in this original vocal creation, you are involved in the production. Can you talk about the feeling of cooperation? What I am most curious about is how the adaptation of "500 miles" was completed, and what kind of inspiration did it refer to? "
"It's said that the crew has plans to hold a concert to perform the original soundtrack of the film. Is that true?"
"Ethan or Joel, can any of you answer questions about sound editing and sound effects? In previous works, you are very good at using such detail effect to create atmosphere, but this time, because of a large number of live performances, you seem to try to avoid the sound effect taking away the light of the plot. Is that so? "
"Langley, not long ago you worked with Alfonso Caron, and then with the Cohen brothers. Can you talk about the differences between the two cooperation?"
What's more, why did 'drunken folk songs' choose the ring structure? Is the plot at the beginning and the end of the film exactly the same? Or a flashback? What is the reason for choosing such a skill? Besides, what's the point of that rhubarb cat named Ulysses? How do you think this will affect your performance, Langley? "
……
In the hustle and bustle, the upsurge of the whole news conference could not stop at all. The news conference, which was originally scheduled to end in 30 minutes, dragged on for 45 minutes. The reporters still reluctantly did not want to end the visit, but... The organizer finally ended the press conference compulsorily.
After watching the "drunken folk songs" crew leave the press conference hall one after another, the media reporters still stay in the same place, not in a hurry to leave.
Although they know that every minute counts, they must now rush to the next journey; But at this moment, they still hope to stay and exchange views with their peers, about the "drunken folk", about the press conference, and about the overall impression of the Cannes Film Festival.
In the surging crowd, Emily and mark also meet a group of like-minded friends, dancing to share their feelings and opinions.
"Zizi", there was a vibration in Emily's pocket. Subconsciously, she took out her mobile phone and glanced at it quickly. It was an email reminder. After clicking it, Emily's pupils still widened sharply, showing incredible ecstasy. The whole body began to get excited.
"God
After all, Emily couldn't hold back and exclaimed, "I've made an appointment for a round table interview with Langley!"
"What?"“ My God“ Envy“ True or false“ Emily, hurry up. My list of questions will be sent to you right away. Please ask lenley face to face for me! "“ Also, remember to take pictures! What kind of feeling is it like to have a close interview with Langley? God, I'm already excited! "
"Wait a minute, I also made an appointment for a round table interview!" After half a beat, mark confirmed his email and got the latest news. Then he jumped up and celebrated the happy event.
On top of the international film festivals, there are numerous media to interview, especially in the prosperous era of the three major European film festivals. Even small film groups with unknown origins are hot interviewees. As long as they can enter the main competition unit, it means that official interviews will continue.
For example, in Cannes Film Festival, there are more than 4000 media members. Even if only one tenth of the media can get interview opportunities, there are 400 interviews. Most of the crew stay in Cannes for about three to four days, which means that they need to complete 50 to 100 interviews every day on average. This is an impossible task.
Therefore, the film festival adjusted the interview plan accordingly.
One is round table interview. Just like round table conference, there are at least three and at most ten participants around the round table to interview the actors or directors individually. The whole interview process lasts from 30 minutes to 60 minutes, so as to improve the interview speed and performance as much as possible.
One is small talk interview, which is to complete a short random interview in the fragmented time between the film festival and the party. But this interview method is entirely based on luck. Some people may not find opportunities during the whole film festival, but others may gain a lot.
There is also a kind of individual interview, as the name suggests, which is one-on-one interview. But only a few top media can get such an interview, and the treatment and specifications are quite different.
Emily and mark just made an appointment for a round table interview.
Although they also hope to make an appointment for an exclusive interview, it's really too difficult for US media. Even round table interviews are extremely rare. There are countless other media that can't make an appointment for any interview opportunity at all and can only watch eagerly; They also need to be optimistic and comfort themselves that being able to attend the film festival is already the best gift.
"Ha ha, ha ha." After all, mark couldn't help laughing. After feeling the concern, he quickly explained, "young master, it's so interesting. In e-mail, the interview time was set at 3:30 p.m., because he needed to go to see a long-awaited work, a kind of "Omar" focusing on the unit. That's the original words in the email! "
"Poof", everyone can't help laughing. It's so cute to be so straightforward. What's more, it's more lovely to give up the interview opportunity in order to watch the film.
Emily chuckled, "that's right, and the email also said: If time is tight and you can't attend the interview, it's suggested that you can interview Joel and Ethan an hour in advance; In addition, you can make an appointment with Kerry and Justin. " I'm sure film lovers will understand that. By the way, is there anyone watching Omar's movie at the same time? "
"Ha ha", collective laughter, clapping and laughing, laughter can hardly stop.
"This is an email written by Langley himself?" There was a look of disbelief from someone nearby.
Mark shook his head. "No, no, this is an email written by Roy, the young master's manager. But a small part of it is quoted in quotation marks, which is obviously the original words of the young master. " While talking and laughing, Mark's mood finally brightened up. "Roy is also a very humorous guy. I can make complaints about Roy's expression in Tucao's young master.
"Looking at this email, I have a real feeling that lanli is really a young man, and also a young man who loves movies."
You say a word, I say a word, we all began to talk, sharing their understanding of the blue ceremony.
Meanwhile, Emily and mark exchange a sight. Finally, Emily asked, "how's it going? What are you going to do? "
"Well... I still want to see Omar. The young master is always full of curiosity about the film festival. The films he likes are bound to have merits. Although a kind of attention is not as good as the main competition, I think that if we watch this film in advance, whether it is the same scene or not, the next interview is bound to be very interesting. " Mark spoke his mind seriously.
"If it's the same scene, it's better. Maybe we can have on-site communication." Emily also added that without any hesitation, she nodded in agreement. "Well, let's get there now, or it might be too late."
One kind of attention to the screening arrangement is relatively intensive, and the overall attention is not too obvious.
What's more, the round table interview at 3:30 may miss the premiere of this evening's main competition unit. But... This is Cannes. It's running 24 hours a day, without stopping, if necessary.
So Emily and mark have to hurry.
After not staying too long in the news release center, the two men and their companions waved goodbye, and then, in the pouring rain, rushed toward the direction of a kind of attention projection hall.
There was another queue - during that time, there were paparazzi who came to take pictures. When lanli appeared, the scene was in chaos. Cannes was different from Berlin after all, and the audience who couldn't get into the cinema all focused on the stars.
"Omar" is the fourth feature film of Israeli director Hanny Abu Assad. In 2005, "paradise now" won the Oscar nomination for best foreign language film and was shortlisted in the main competition of Berlin Film Festival.
It was another run - after watching the film, it was a little later than expected, so they had to run all the way to avoid missing the next round table interview. The whole journey was very hasty, like a quick march.
It's a pity that this time they didn't get close to lenley.
Because from the beginning to the end of the viewing, lanli was always surrounded, and could only accommodate less than 80 people in the small viewing hall. He was completely trapped in a crowded situation. Not to mention lanli, even the on-site staff did not expect it.
In order to avoid missing the next play, Emily and mark can only give up the wonderful idea of walking with Langley, leave the film palace ahead of time, and quickly run in the direction of Cannes grand ballier hotel.
The only lucky thing is: the rain finally stopped, the sky slowly cleared up, finally there is no need to rain.
