Chapter 1326

The starry red carpet finally opened.

Of course, even Cannes, the most popular of the three major film festivals in Europe, can't compete with the Golden Globes and Oscars. From the guest lineup to the live broadcast team, to the onlookers, Cannes has fallen behind by more than one level in all aspects.

But what's different is that on top of the closing ceremony of the three major European film festivals, this is the real "award ceremony". Every crew who steps onto the red carpet can be sure to win the award——

At the end of the last moment, the premiere, stay in Cannes, no awards of the crew team appeared on the red carpet, such a situation has also happened, anyway, all stay in Cannes, attend the closing ceremony, increase the exposure, increase the degree of discussion, and then attract the attention of the marketing team, this is not bad.

But it's still a minority.

Every time a production team appears, the media center begins to talk about what awards they may win and what impact they will have on the trend of Palme d'Or; But forecasting is not easy.

In previous years, the best actor, best actress, best screenwriter and other three personal awards, more or less can capture some clues; This year is an exception.

The queen of the film basically focuses on "the past" and "Adele's life". It depends on whether the latter can impact the Palme d'Or the screenwriter. The film king is a scuffle. There are opportunities for "drunken folk", "Nebraska", "destiny", "father like son" and "beautiful city". One award may completely disrupt the trend of other comprehensive awards.

When the "beautiful city" crew appeared on the red carpet, the whole media center gave a cry of surprise. Mark even slapped his forehead with exaggeration, making a grunt of annoyance, as if he had lost the whole world.

When the "Holly" crew also appeared on the big screen of the TV, the whole media center exploded, and everyone expressed their protest and dissatisfaction excitedly. They couldn't believe their eyes.

After extreme tension and anxiety, Emily calms down, breathes heavily, clenches her fist, and cheers for herself and the "drunken folk" crew. It's still not the end of the world——

If a total of eight cast teams attend the closing ceremony, it means that there is only a double yolk. At least, "drunken folk songs" are not fruitless, and now they are still qualified to hit the grand prize. She should not be too pessimistic, let alone too negative. She should believe in Steven Spielberg's aesthetic vision!

Wait, what if the "drunken folk" crew didn't win the prize?

All the speculation so far is based on an established fact: the cast of "drunken folk" stayed in Cannes because they were sure to win the prize.

But what if the crew's stay had nothing to do with the awards, just Langley and the Cohen brothers stayed to watch the movie?

Lanli mentioned before that he was full of expectations for the "beautiful city" and hoped to watch the work on the big screen; Mark also said that Langley enjoyed watching movies in Berlin last year and even actively participated in the audience's discussion.

God!

If the "drunken ballad" didn't have a trophy and was completely reduced to cannon fodder, Emily thought she might cry.

"Pa Pa Pa!"

There was a burst of applause in my ear, not the kind of enthusiastic applause, but just a polite salute. I patted my hands gently, then slowly raised my hands and continued to applaud above my head. In this way, I expressed my inner expectation and excitement, looked at the TV screen, and then——

It's a "drunken folk song"!

Emily immediately raised her hands and began to applaud enthusiastically. They showed up. They finally showed up! It's a good thing. It's definitely a good thing. At least we can look forward to it tonight.

It can be seen that lanli is very relaxed. It seems that it is not an important occasion to attend the award ceremony and closing ceremony, but just a small party; On the contrary, Justin and Kerry are even more nervous, vaguely expecting that the Cohen brothers can win the Palme d'Or again after 22 years.

In fact, the Cohen brothers have always been the favourites of Cannes Film Festival.

In 1991, "Barton Fink" won three awards: golden palm, best director and best actor. In 1996, "ice blood storm" and "absent person" in 2001 won the best director award twice. This year, "Barton Fink" has become a strong impactor of the highest award again, especially the chairman of the jury is Steven Spielberg, which is more and more worth looking forward to.

Joel - Cohen and Ethan - Cohen two people are light, from the look and action can see that they are enjoying a good time tonight.

But the best moment of the evening comes from "Adele's life.".

It's a French movie.

If "Adele's life" can reach the summit of Palme d'Or tonight, it will be the highest honor of the Third French Film Festival since the millennium. The previous two works are "children" in 2005 and "classroom storm" in 2008.

Compared with Berlin and Venice, Cannes has paid more attention to the world territory, but it has not forgotten the cultivation and support of local films. However, the overall effect is still not outstanding. Those French filmmakers who are active in the world are still members of the Mesozoic era, and the growth rate of the new generation has not kept up.

Incidentally, the director of Adele's life, Abdel kechiche, is 53 years old, but in fact, he is still an important representative of the new generation of filmmakers.

Abdel was born as an actor. He had been on the big screen as early as the 1980s and participated in many works, but his performance was always tepid and didn't really break out of the world; In 2000, when he was 40 years old, he directed his maiden work "Voltaire's mistake" and won two film critic awards at the Venice Film Festival.

After that, Abdel's career as a director was out of control.

"Dodge" in 2003 and "millet and mullet" in 2007 both swept the Caesar Award, the highest award in France, and both of them were the comprehensive coverage of best film, best director and best original script; Moreover, each work has been shortlisted in the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival. Although it failed to win the main awards, it has gained a lot of affirmation among the film critics.

"Adele's life" is just Abdel's fifth feature film.

Therefore, Abdel is still a "new generation".

If Abdel can reach the top of the Palme d'Or at tonight's award ceremony, it will undoubtedly have more long-term significance for French films.

In addition, lea Seydoux, one of the two heroines of Adele's life, is also an absolute focus of attention.

Since she started her acting career in 2008, Leiya has become a favorite of fashion. Unfortunately, she has never met the work that makes her shine, until now; However, the real reason for Leiya to become the focus is because of her family background. Like lanli, she is also from the upper class.

Leiya's grandfather is the chairman of EMI, an old French film company, while the chairman of goment is her uncle. In other words, she comes from the third generation of a movie family.

So, when the crew members appeared on the red carpet, the whole audience was boiling. The degree of attention is faintly superior to the "drunken folk songs", which has become the most popular tonight.

When the red carpet officially ended, a total of eight crew members arrived at the film palace.

"Adele's life", "drunken ballad", "past", "Nebraska", "destiny", "Holly", "beautiful city" and "father like son".

Tonight's seven awards are about to be born among them, including the annual Golden Palm.

……

The award ceremony began. Steven Spielberg led the jury members to the stage. They sat on the red sofa on the right side of the stage. Chairman Steven announced the results of each award. One or two judges acted as the awarding guests and presented the trophies to the winners.

There was no performance, no greeting, no salutation. Everything revolved around the awards. The whole award ceremony lasted from 45 minutes to an hour, simple and clear.

The first award was for best actress.

It's a bit unexpected, but strictly speaking, there is no order for the four awards, including best actress, best actor, best screenwriter and best director. The award order should be determined according to the intensity of competition, and there is no strict official process list.

In the end, the "past" French actress, bergenis becho, won! Following the "great artist" of the year before last, she once again presented a work that attracted wide attention. This work directed by Iranian director Asha fahati has lived up to the expectations of the public. It has continued the excellent reputation of the director's last work "a farewell" and has received a lot of praise at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

Then, the best screenwriter award, from China's "destiny" in the fierce fight to stand out.

This is not a big accident.

It's not a surprise, it's an accident. Because there are a lot of impact works in the screenwriting department; But from another point of view, "destiny" has won the award, while other competitive works may be upgraded and have the potential to impact the top three awards. This is a good thing for "Adele's life" and "drunken folk songs".

Then, the jury awarded the prize.

The three comprehensive awards in Cannes Film Festival are Palme d'Or, Grand Prix and Grand Prix, respectively, corresponding to the first, second and third place.

However, no one is willing to be second and third, although it is still an important affirmation.

Emily's heart began to contract. On the one hand, she was worried about the name of "drunken folk song"; On the other hand, after worrying about missing the jury award, "drunken folk songs" have nothing to gain, so what should we do?

Instead of creating suspense, Steven announced the answer, "like father, like son.".
