More than Eden Hudson, presumably countless media are looking forward to the encounter between Evan Bell and Penelope Cruz. Although the media does not know what happened between the two people, but the handsome and beautiful Gratitude and grievance are always expected. The confrontation at the Grammy Awards last year made the media sensitively smell the anomaly, although Penelope Cruz and Matthew McConaughey, Tom Kerr Ruth's love triangle has diverted attention, but isn't the media best at selectively forgetting and turning over old accounts? Now, Evan Bell and Penelope Cruz are on the same stage in Cannes again. Will there be any news about the actor who is full of personality? Worth looking forward to
However, the media have not waited for Penelope Cruz to make his debut. At the press conference, they got absolutely the best news from Evan Bell.
Because of No-Bell's "first" world tour's press conference in Hong Kong, South Korean reporters stole the limelight from local reporters and got the first right to ask questions. Pressed the reporter of "Xingyue Daily" sitting next to him and grabbed the first opportunity to ask questions. Therefore, at this press conference, reporters from all sides were wondering if there would be another accident today. French reporters also wanted to come. To avoid this from happening, prepare early
The press conference of as many as 300 reporters at the scene gathered reporters from all over the world. The first right to ask questions fell to the official media of the Cannes Film Festival. Bell has a little warm-up time, "Evan, do you have any interesting works for the films exhibited at this Cannes Film Festival?"
Such a question really has no technical content. Any artist who wants to have a good relationship with the media and the official Cannes Film Festival only needs to talk about "return", mention "Babel Tower", or talk about oneself I like the works, and even my own works can easily give a satisfactory answer to this question
But obviously, Evan Bell does not need warm-up time, he shook his head with a smile, "This year's Cannes Film Festival, there is no work that interests me at present."
This sentence shocked the audience
Evan Bell's meaning couldn't be more obvious. This is definitely a shocking answer to the over 300 reporters at the scene. Finally, a reporter asked, "You mean, even your own works are not. Don't like it anymore?"
Evan Bell couldn't help but smile a little, "I said 'so far', after my works are released, I naturally like them, but I think Cannes audiences have the right to dislike any work, including me. s work"
The scene of the press conference was stunned. Compared with the gossip about the encounter between Penelope Cruz and Evan Bell, the meaning expressed by Evan Bell now is much more shocking. Evan Bell is this. Against the entire Cannes Film Festival, this is against all the big-name directors
In fact, what Evan Bell said is not out of the ordinary. Everyone has their own aesthetic point of view, and it is impossible for everyone to like the same work. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Evan Bell's words themselves, just such words Put it on an artist with absolute influence like Evan Bell and put it on the star-studded Cannes Film Festival, and the uproar caused by it shocked everyone.
Last year, Emile Kusturica, president of the jury at the Cannes Film Festival, said from the bottom of his heart, "Whichever entry is, honestly, I'm disappointed that we picked winners out of so many average entries. , I think many works are not as good as expected." And last year's Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival was awarded to the Belgian Danes brothers, who won their second Palme d'Or with "Children" and became the only Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival. Some five "Double Palme d'Or" winners and after the film festival, some media boldly commented "The Palme d'Or was awarded to the Darney brothers, it's a bit of a waste."
As the chairman of the jury at the Cannes Film Festival, Emile Kusturica is one of five directors who have won the Palme d'Or twice, and he publicly expressed his disappointment and regret for the participating films, which is undoubtedly directly on the face of the Cannes Film Festival. A slap in the face made many people focus on the Venice Film Festival, which is a mature and artistic professional. For the Cannes Film Festival, it was like a bolt from the blue. In this time period last year, Emile Coos Turica's remarks sparked heated debates in France and even the entire European continent. The "child" who won the Palme d'Or and the "dodging" of the jury's award also became the focus of controversy, triggering countless discussions
Therefore, this year, whether it is the chairman of the Cannes Film Festival Gilles-Jacob, or the chairman of the jury, Wang Jia. Wei, they all tried their best to restore the reputation of the Cannes Film Festival. Works such as "Lady Queen" and "Pan's Labyrinth" have been well received after their release, especially the two works "Return" and "Babel", the former being praised as Pedro Almodóvar's most outstanding works in recent years , has the hope of representing Spain in the competition for the best foreign language film Oscar; the latter has become the strongest contender for the Palme d'Or, and some people even boldly predicted that there would be a place in the Oscar's best picture waiting list.
In this case, Evan Bell's words naturally had a bombastic reverberation, and everyone thought of Emile Kusturica's criticism of the Cannes Film Festival last year and Evan Bell, who was in The influence of the international film industry is no less than that of Emile Kusturica. He has a surprising appeal in the United States. Therefore, the scene of the press conference was messed up.
"Evan, why, don't you have any special ideas for the movie 'Return'?" A Spanish reporter couldn't wait to stand up, he should be too anxious, and he blurted out in Spanish
Evan Bell understood the question and said with a smile, "Almodóvar is a great director, but 'Return' is not my favorite among his works."
"What about 'Babel', it's a very good work that has been well received by all the media and 'Pan's Labyrinth', which is also a rare masterpiece in recent years." It's a little difficult for Wen Bell, he doesn't hear it very clearly, but he still understands names such as "Tower of Babel" and "Pan's Labyrinth".
Evan Bell spread his hands helplessly, "I don't like it"
"What right do you have to make these comments, you're just a 20-year-old kid, you've only made a few movies, it's just a pile of rubbish, you don't deserve to comment on these great works" a reporter lost his mind Speaking with a crackle, the security guards of the Organizing Committee of the Cannes Film Festival quickly pulled the reporter out. Judging from his accent, it should be a local French reporter, and his English contained countless headaches. tongue
Evan Bell didn't care about such accusations at all, and still said calmly, "First, I'm twenty-three years old." As soon as the words came out, the somewhat tense atmosphere at the scene suddenly stopped. Everyone was a little stunned, and then Evan Bell said, "That's the truth, you have the right to dislike my work, you can even say that my work is garbage, so I also have the right to express my preferences, don't you?"
This rebuttal made the commotion on the scene seem to have stagnated. Evan Bell's words made sense; and Evan Bell was somewhat different from last year's Emile Kusturica. Emile Kusturica was Speaking as the chairman of the jury, his denial of the film represented the denial of the entire jury to the quality of a Cannes Film Festival, while Evan Bell, a director, an actor, and an audience, did not maintain The "reputation" of the Cannes Film Festival Therefore, the French reporters, Spanish reporters, and Mexican reporters on the scene were a little stuck.
At this time, another reporter stood up and asked, "Evan, this time the work 'perfume' you brought has attracted a lot of attention, can you talk about your work?" know it's a british journalist
Evan Bell's expression still didn't seem to have changed much, but the topic turned to his own work, "I don't think this is a work that everyone will like." The atmosphere at the scene gradually loosened up. Later, another American reporter stood up to help, and the atmosphere of the news conference was heated up.
But just as the press conference was about to end, another reporter stood up and asked a question, "Evan, what do you think of Richard Kelly's work 'Southern Legend' this time?" Evan -Bell guesses He should be a reporter for "The Sun", or a reporter bought by "The Sun" or "News of the World"
Richard Kelly is also famous now. "Legends of the South" has invited "Dwayne Johnson" Dwayne Johnson and Sarah Michelle Gellar to star, the former turned from wrestling and filmed "The Mummy Returns". ", "The Scorpion King" and other works; the latter relies on "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", "Scream", "The American version of The Grudge" and other works enjoy a good popularity. It can be seen that Richard Kelly Although he is still persistent in the field of high-end films, major production companies are also impressed by him. This time he was shortlisted for the competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival is also a kind of affirmation for him.
Evan Bell, however, had long expected this problem, and said with a smile, "I will invite Richard to the premiere of 'Perfume'; of course, if he wants me to go into the cinema and see 'Southern' "Legend", I will not refuse, I can only pray that 'Legend of the South' is no more difficult to understand than 'Death Illusion'"
Such a curvilinear answer contains countless subtexts, and Evan Bell's remarks at the press conference are bound to arouse infinite discussions.
