Chapter 872： Announcement of the Golden Lion

Today's second update, please recommend, please subscribe!

The award setting of the film festival has always been different. As long as it is a shortlisted film in the competition unit, it is eligible to compete for various awards. //The awards of the Venice Film Festival are relatively simple, the Golden Lion Award for Best Film, the Silver Lion Award for the Jury Award, the Silver Lion Award for the Best Director, the Best Actor and Actor Award, the Best Newcomer Award, and the Outstanding Technical Contribution Award. Being able to be shortlisted for the final competition unit is actually an affirmation of the film itself. "Mysterious Skin", as a dark horse, has actually become the focus of attention in the predictions of authoritative media, which makes Evan Bell a little flattered. .

In terms of film awards, Evan Bell's biggest achievement so far is the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his "adapted screenplay". Of course, this film was also shortlisted for the competition unit of the Berlin Film Festival, but unfortunately it ended up empty-handed; Then there's Pirates of the Caribbean, which won Evan Bell's first Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actor and an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor. Even the awards for actors are so limited, let alone directors? At present, Evan Bell, who has only filmed his second work, relaxed and came to the award ceremony of the Venice Film Festival with a very relaxed attitude.

This year's Venice Film Festival has been in chaos due to the drastic reforms. Even on the day the festival ended, problems continued. Therefore, at the awards ceremony, Marco Muller cancelled the red carpet for the first time, and directly Entering the awarding session, this also made the reporters and media complain, and they were obviously very dissatisfied with this arrangement.

Although there is no red carpet, the actors have to arrive at the scene after all, and then walk into the venue. Therefore, the scene after the actors got off the bus became the time for reporters to rush to shoot. "Mysterious Skin" is naturally the object of attention, mainly because this movie is the most popular work in the competition unit, and the cast of handsome guys and beauties is absolutely eye-catching.

Evan Bell, who appeared in a black t-shirt and a black casual suit, was still dazzling. The black t-shirt was pasted with black sequins with the appearance of an eye, which made the whole suit lit up, especially under the reflection of the flash. Bright. Evan Bell appeared with two young actors Zachary Gordon and Nathan Gamble, while Joseph Gordon-Levitt with Blake-Lively Ryan-Gosling Amanda Seyfried, and two handsome men Tom Hiddleston and Michael Fassbender walking side by side, this is definitely the most eye-catching scene at the final awards ceremony of the Venice Film Festival .

There was no red carpet, Evan Bell took the actors and did not pause much, greeted reporters all the way, and soon disappeared at the door of the Finnis Theater, making those reporters complain again that there was no Red carpet, because if there was a red carpet, how could Evan Bell go so fast, it's depressing. .

The Finnis Theater was much quieter, because there was no red carpet, no reporter interviews, and no cocktail party. After entering the theater, everyone was guided by the staff to find their seats and sit down. There was no social time between actors and directors, which made the awards ceremony a little dull. Fortunately, in the past eleven days, everyone has exchanged greetings many times at the premieres of various film festivals. Without this social occasion, it would not be too abrupt.

The "Mysterious Skin" crew sat next to the "World" crew, and Evan Bell and Jia Zhangke also chatted in a low voice. Evan Bell admires this Chinese director who has been working **** the road of high-end movies, especially when the domestic film industry has been going downhill, Jia Zhangke is still able to make movies conscientiously. people admire it.

If you think back to the 61st Venice Film Festival, the most impressive scene is the extraordinary lottery. This year's audience is three times larger than last year, which is one of the reasons for a series of confusion: The Organizing Committee did not expect such a rapid increase in the number of audiences, and was in a hurry.

However, compared to the liveliness of the entire film festival, the awards ceremony, which shoulders the important task of ending the film, is a bit deserted. Not only has the red carpet been cancelled, but a series of activities have also been cancelled. Even the awarding process is compact and concise, without too much tediousness. The performance segment did not deliberately delay the rhythm of the entire award ceremony. The simple style of everything makes the award presentation appear very fast. Often, the last award has just been awarded, and everyone's applause has just fallen, and the next award will be announced again.

The first award given out today was Best Newcomer, and finally the Italian homegrown film "Slow Work" took the award, with the two leading actors Marc Luis and Tommaso Lamengo taking the trophy together. In fact, this is a minor upset.

Among the rookie actors, the most popular are actually "Empty Room" actor Jae-hee, and "Mysterious Skin" Joseph Gordon-Levitt. More than 60% of the media believe that Joseph Gordon-Levitt will win this award, which is also the biggest award for the "Mysterious Skin" crew.

After all, having Joseph Gordon-Levitt competing for best actor is a bit insufficient, and the competition for the Golden Lion for best picture is even more intense, so best new has become the one with the greatest chance of success for "Mystery Skin" Department, but unfortunately in the end, "slow work" won the upset, making the scene fall below the glasses on the ground.

After the awards were announced, Evan Bell also made fun of Joseph Gordon-Levitt next to him, but unfortunately he didn't buy it at all, just smiled and said, "Seeing how calm you are, you don't have much expectations, I am alone. What do you think about each other there." Obviously he didn't have much expectations for this award.

In fact, when he first arrived in Venice, Evan Bell's mentality was a little fluctuating, but then he adjusted it. Even though the media has been touting "mysterious skin" these days, Evan Bell is very calm.

In fact, in Evan Bell's last lifetime memory, "Mysterious Skin" has won a lot of praise, but in terms of awards, it has not caused a sensation in the world. Evan Bell vaguely remembers that he won the Best Director and Best Actor at the Seattle International Film Festival, as well as the Best Director nomination for the American ** Film Award, and won the Norwegian, Spanish, Dutch and other international film festivals. Nominated for Best Picture and Best Director, but failed to win. As for the Venice Film Festival that I am currently participating in, "Mysterious Skin" seems to have only participated in the exhibition in the past life, and has not been shortlisted in the competition unit, not to mention the following world-renowned award ceremonies such as the Golden Globe Awards and the Oscars.

Now, "Mysterious Skin" can achieve a breakthrough that has never been seen in his previous life, and has entered the competition unit of the Venice Film Festival and won rave reviews. This is the greatest affirmation for Evan Bell. As for whether to win the award or not, it is usually The heart is the most important.

The Outstanding Technical Contribution Award subsequently awarded went to "Howl's Moving Castle". Hayao Miyazaki, a famous Japanese animation master, deserves it. However, Hayao Miyazaki did not appear in Venice, and the representative of Studio Ghibli accepted the award on his behalf. Best Actor went to Javier Bardem of "Out of the Sea", and Best Actress was awarded to "Vera Drake" actress Imelda Staunton.

Although "Slow Work" exploded for a while, whether it was "Howl's Moving Castle", or "Going to the Sea" and "Vera-Drake" winning the actor awards, the media had already predicted In the end, these films are all big hits. It can be said that after the Venice Film Festival has carried out reforms in various aspects, the return to awards still follows the trajectory of previous years. Marco Müller doesn't seem to want to change the entire Venice Film Festival for the time being, otherwise it will be another Cannes Film Festival.

When Manuel de Olivia took the stage to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award, the audience stood up for a standing ovation, a kind of heartfelt respect that made the ninety-six-year-old look very excited.

Looking at Manuel de Olivia on the stage, Evan Bell thought seriously for the first time that art is indeed the great spiritual heritage of mankind. Generally speaking, the eight arts of human beings include literature, music, dance, sculpture, painting, architecture, drama, and film, and these eight arts, no matter which one they are, can become valuable spiritual heritage. It's like a "Citizen Kane" from 1941, which is still the most important work in film history. Similarly, Manuel de Olivia, who stood on the stage to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award, whose work can also be called art, has left its own track in the history of cinema.

If one day, one's own work can also be called "art", what kind of feeling will it be? Evan Bell couldn't help but be a little distracted, sighing at the greatness of art in his mind, and thinking about it at the same time. After discovering his own thoughts, Evan Bell smiled self-deprecatingly. Art is not formed by self-promotion, nor is it formed by the media's boundless tout It is more formed by the precipitation of time, the scrutiny of professionals, and the recognition of the public. Therefore, it is really funny that he stands here alone and thinks about it.

"What are you laughing at?" Joseph v Gordon-Levitt saw the strange smile on the corner of Evan Bell's mouth, which seemed mocking, helpless, and relieved.

Evan Bell shook his head with a smile, "I laugh at myself thinking too much and being too greedy." Although Evan Bell has been out for almost four years now, it can only be regarded as just starting, not to mention compared with Manuel de Olivia who has made movies all his life, even with those who became famous in the eighth The four major directors of the 1900s, as well as those famous actors who won unanimous praise for their acting skills, are all far away from each other.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt thought that Evan Bell had expectations for the Silver Lion Award for Best Director and the Silver Lion Award for the Jury Award, so he also laughed, "Evan, we also hope to win Award, it is normal to have a little hope, it shows that we are very confident in our work, doesn’t it?”

Evan Bell glanced at Joseph Gordon-Levitt with the same smile, without denying it.
