The third update today, please recommend, please subscribe!

At the 61st Venice Film Festival, there were no outstanding works, but the gathering of good films made it very difficult for the judges to choose. Before the film festival was about to end, some authoritative media broke the news that in the selection of the Silver Lion Award for Best Director, the judges locked Mike Lee of "Vera Drake" and Aliadero of "Going to the Sea". Oman Rabah, Kim Ki-duk of "The Empty Room". These three candidates are all very good, which made the judges very embarrassed, and I heard that there was a dispute during the discussion.

In fact, these three films are also highly acclaimed films at this Venice Film Festival. They are all popular and well deserved. In addition to these three films, Evan Bell of "Mysterious Skin" and Vinm Wenders of "The Rich Land" also won some support, which shows that the competition for major awards at this year's Venice Film Festival is fierce.

At the Venice Film Festival, there is only one Golden Lion Award, which belongs to the best film; there are two Silver Lion Awards, which belong to the Grand Jury Award and the Best Director respectively. Therefore, the Silver Lion Award for the best director is the largest director at the Venice Film Festival. The cake is the same as the Best Director award at the Oscars. The fierce competition shows that the quality of the films exhibited at this Venice Film Festival is excellent, which is a good thing for Marco Muller.

Quentin Tarantino took to the stage, he will present this year's best director Silver Lion Award. The famous director who won a place in the film industry with "Pulp Fiction" and "Kill Bill", because he has half Italian blood, he is very concerned about Italian films, and he can often be seen at the Venice Film Festival. Today, he will appear on the stage as an award ceremony, which is obviously a manifestation of Marco Muller's support for domestic films. The performance of Italian films in Venice this year can indeed be regarded as one of the main themes.

Quentin Tarantino also knows that today's awards ceremony is fast-paced and everything is simple, so he did not intend to make a long speech when he stood on the stage, "I was chatting with Spielberg the day before yesterday and talked about this year's Venice Film Festival. We all think that the new generation of directors is coming."

This sentence resonated a lot among the audience. A group of directors such as Jin Ji-de and Jia Zhangke only started filming around the beginning of this century. They are indeed a new generation of directors, even Gianni Ami, the director of "Room Key". Leo, who made his film debut in 1991, should also be classified as a new generation of directors, not to mention Evan Bell, who only started filming last year. It can be seen that at this year's Venice Film Festival, the new generation of directors has indeed received a lot of attention.

"This is naturally a good thing for the film, the new generation of directors, the new generation of actors, innovative works... These are all things that we are very happy to see." Quentin Tarantino said with a smile, "So this year, I don't know who the Silver Lion Award for Best Director will end up in. Let's reveal the answer now."

Quentin Tarantino's remarks were indeed very brief, and he did not hesitate to lower his head and start opening the envelope. The winner's answer is sealed in that little envelope.

There is no shortlist for the film festival, and works that enter the competition unit are eligible to compete for all awards, so there are 20 contenders for the best director, and it can be said that the lineup is strong.

Evan Bell looked to his left, Joseph v Gordon-Levitt, Blake Lively and others lined up, although he could only see Ryan Gosling, but the faces of several people A little nervous. It can be seen that they are still quite nervous today. On the one hand, it is the recent word of mouth of "Mysterious Skin", which is not without competition in various awards, at least it will make people look forward to it; Attending such an important awards ceremony for the first time, including Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Ryan Gosling is so inevitably a little nervous.

Evan Bell withdrew his gaze and looked at Quentin Tarantino.

Since there is no waiting list, the big screen does not lock the candidates like the Oscars and Golden Globes, but there is a "Best Director" logo on the screen. Evan Bell couldn't remember the winners of this Venice Film Festival in his last life, so at this time he couldn't help but wonder who would win this award.

Quentin Tarantino took out the card and glanced at the answers on the card, the smile on the corner of his mouth was a little strange, seemed a little surprised, but also a little relieved, and then sighed, "The 61st Venice Film Festival, The winner for best director is..." Quentin Tarantino read while looking at the card, then paused and looked up at the audience. After this pause, the scene was completely silent. There was the creaking sound of the chair twisting in the hall. It was estimated that some people felt too nervous, and it was not very comfortable to sit. After adjusting the position, the voice of the chair was so clear that it could be heard clearly at the scene. The creaking sound made the silence of the scene more and more obvious.

Quentin Tarantino did not deliberately exaggerate suspense and mobilize the atmosphere like the Oscars. After a slight pause, he lowered his eyelids again, looked at the card in his hand, and said congratulations, 'Mysterious Skin'. ,, Evan Bell! "

What? ! With a "bang", Evan Bell's brain was like a nuclear bomb exploded, and all thoughts and thoughts were blown up with a bang. He just sat there, with an idiotic expression on his face, his mouth was slightly open, his eyes were round, and he was so stunned that he didn't respond. Evan Bell, a famous, unrestrained, unrestrained and full of personality, has always been calm at the awards ceremony, and he never thought that he would have such a gaffe day.

Evan Bell did not know what happened. He heard his name spit out of Quentin Tarantino's mouth, and then his brain crashed completely, like a computer crashed. He tried to react a little, but the blank brain didn't give any instructions, and he seemed to be pinned to the seat, motionless, and even the movement of a finger became impossible.

Is this a joke? Quentin Tarantino An innocuous joke. Or is it his own hallucination? The hallucination that appears after one's own gains and losses are out of balance again? Obviously, "Mysterious Skin" has never won an award in the past life, obviously this Best Director Silver Lion Award does not belong to Evan Bell... Not to mention, this is Evan Bell's second film, the second It's just... So, "Are you kidding me?" Evan Bell spat out these words stupidly in his dry throat.

"Evan, Evan..." Joseph v Gordon-Levitt hugged Evan Bell, shook him hard, and Ryan Gosling pounced, Blake Lively held With Evan Bell's right hand, it was pressed in the middle to become a sandwich. The entire "Mysterious Skin" crew was boiling, they seemed to be at a carnival, singing and celebrating, they were cheering and shouting.

Evan Bell's blank brain seemed to be floating in space, and was pulled back little by little by the loud shouting, his vision became clearer and his head gradually became clearer, and he finally understood what was going on. . At this time, Evan Bell was like a marionette, and was picked up by Joseph Gordon Levitra, while Blake Lively held him, and Ryan Gosling rushed up behind him, with Zach next to him. Ray Gordon and Nathan Gamble came over, Evan Bell was tightly hugged, and neither did Tom Hiddleston or Michael Fassbender behind. Living in stretched hands, Ba on Evan Bell's shoulders.

Evan Bell's T-shirt and suit were completely torn into a ball of sauerkraut. He walked to the stage through the red carpet. He only felt as if he was walking on the clouds. Possibilities are average.

It wasn't that Evan Bell was too worried about gains and losses, but that the surprise came too quickly, like a meteor from the sky, directly hitting his body, making him unable to react, and was firmly suppressed.

Evan Bell, 21 years old this year, "Mysterious Skin" is only the second work he directed. It is such a qualification that the Venice Film Festival awarded him the Silver Lion Award for Best Director. This can definitely be said to be an unprecedented first encounter. Throughout Evan Bell's film history, as an actor, he only won a series of Best Supporting Actor Awards such as the Golden Globe Award and Oscar, and the heavier Best Actor Award is only an American actor. The union gave him an affirmation, but now, in the position of director with less seniority, the Venice Film Festival, one of the three major international film festivals, took the lead in awarding Evan Bell. This is an uproar for the whole world.

At the beginning Evan Bell took over the script adaptation of "Mysterious Skin" under the persuasion of Michelle Hathaway, and then decided to take charge of the director himself, although due to some accidents , "Love Notebook" took the lead in filming, but this did not cause any negative impact, but laid the foundation for Evan Bell to stand on his own and direct "Mysterious Skin".

The "mysterious skin", which only invested 300,000 US dollars, from the script to the casting, to the director, soundtrack, and editing, was all handled by Evan Bell. Being able to make this movie is a very satisfying thing for Evan Bell, because through the story of Neil and Brian, he has brought the pain of his own growth, and everyone who grew up when they were young. Pain is expressed.

Evan Bell knew that "mysterious skin" was destined to be difficult to arouse wide-ranging recognition because of the subject matter, so it was a great affirmation for Evan Bell that the film could enter the competition unit of the Venice Film Festival.

But now, as a dark horse, "Mysterious Skin" has successfully cut a **** path among the masters and won the Silver Lion Award for Best Director for Evan Bell. Compared with the actor's identity, Evan Bell The talent in the director position seems to be experiencing a fairy tale of instant fame.
