When it comes to the Shana Film Festival, the first impression that comes to the minds of ordinary audiences is bound to be business, but the first impression that comes to the minds of professional film critics is unpredictable, because almost no one can make predictions about the Shana Film Festival. When you repeatedly think your predictions are successful, the closing ceremony and awards ceremony can always easily overturn your opinion and bring you a "surprise".
After Evan Bell broke through everyone's glasses and won the Best Director Award, another work "Flanders" that was more controversial than "Perfume" won the Jury Award, which really scared everyone. It was broken; and at the gate of the Palme d'Or, the British work "The Wind Blows the Rice Waves", which almost no one noticed, failed everyone's predictions and successfully won the Palme d'Or at the 59th Shana Film Festival. .
Among the last few important awards, the unpopular ones are more exaggerated than the others. Under this situation, Evan Bell's award is now "smooth", because everyone is surprised by the "return". Being ignored, it was even more shocked that the "Babel Tower" returned empty-handed.
Before the awards ceremony, the "Babel Tower", which had an absolute advantage in the media support rate of 28 percentage points, did not win even a single award, and could only sit awkwardly in the audience as a spectator, which also continued Shana. According to the tradition of the film festival, the media support rate is not equal to the Palme d’Or, or even an award; and the “returning” actress and screenwriter department, who received 23% of the media’s support rate, was awarded to Pedro Almodo. Watts gave an explanation, but the regret of missing the final three important awards is still embarrassing.
In fact, in the media support department, "Perfume" won the best director by only 4 percentage points, and "Flandler" won the jury award only 2.5 percentage points. As for the Golden Coffin winner's "Wind" "Blowing Rice Waves" was a measly 1.6 percent. The "loser" of the media approval rate became the winner of the awards ceremony, and Shana's true character finally exerted its original power.
However, after the 59th Shana Film Festival came to an end, when people looked at the list of winners, they could not criticize too much. The jury headed by Wong Kar Wai played a good Tai Chi. Everyone who sees it has a share. This method of dividing the cake is more than one step higher than the Golden Globe Awards and the Oscars.
"The Wind Blows the Rice Waves" directed by Ken Loach won the Palme d'Or, and in the past few decades, this year-old top director has had several close contacts with the Shana Film Festival, but every time it falls short, Despite the consolation of two Jury Prizes and a Best Screenplay Award, this year's Palme d'Or is well deserved for the acclaimed film veteran. "The Wind Blows the Rice Waves" also caused endless controversy after its release. This film describes the conflict between the British government and Ireland in the 1920s, and Ken Lodge, as a British, can tell it in a completely neutral position. This story also reveals that although the strong humanistic concern has sparked a huge controversy over "suspected treason", the excellence of the work is undeniable.
"Flanders" comes from French director Bruno Dumont. This film is also based on the theme of anti-war, but it is explained from a thrilling love affair. When it was released, it caused a fierce debate in the media. The reputation between the good and the bad makes people not optimistic about the prospect of winning the award.
But in the end, the jury award was awarded to "Flanders" on the one hand, which reflected the jury's recognition of the anti-war theme, on the other hand, it also appeased the French local media to make people speechless.
The astonishing "return" of the word-of-mouth brought Pedro Almodóvar two awards for Best Actress and Best Screenplay, which can be regarded as an appreciation for the veteran. At the same time, it also reflects the focus on feminist films at this film festival. The five male actors of the French film "Glorious Years" won the title of best actor, which complemented each other with the queen, and at the same time once again proved the overall performance level of European actors.
From these perspectives, although each award is a shock, there are traces to follow, at least people can't criticize it too much. It can only be said that the selection of the jury members was unexpected. Behind the European film industry, the Shana Film Festival is well known for its closeness to Hollywood, so it is impossible for the jury to forget Hollywood. As a result, the award for best director fell to Evan Bell's head.
Strictly speaking, after the dust of other awards has settled, the best director award is actually the competition between Evan Bell and Alessandro Gonzalez Inaritu, which can also be said to be "perfume" and The competition between the "Babel Towers".
The two directors have a lot in common. Evan Bell, a young talent from overseas and rising in Hollywood, was born in England, while Alejandro Gonzalez-Inarito was born in Mexico; Both are very good at sublimating the theme and awakening human nature through the cooperation of details and stories. Evan Bell is good at returning to the basics, quietly integrating his own insights into the film, triggering unforgettable reflections: Alejandro-Gonzalo Reis-Inaritu is good at intertwining parallel stories, and points out the theme after completing the summary of the tributary relationship of the characters.
There are also many similarities between "Perfume" and "Babel". The huge star lineup includes the three best actor-level actors of Eiffel Bell, Dustin Hoffman and Alan Rickman, while the latter has Brahma De-Pitt, Cate-Blanchet, Gael-Garcia-Bernal; solid and wonderful script The former successfully completed the wonderful adaptation of the original work, and the latter continued the director's profound interweaving of parallel stories foundation.
So, the competition between the two is very fierce. "Babel Tower" received unanimous praise, leading the media support rate list, while "Perfume" detonated infinite controversy. But after careful study, Evan Bell's directing skills have once again made a breakthrough, making everyone's eyes shine, whether it is the structure of the picture, the advancement of the story, the outline of the characters, the use of actors, or the sublimation of the theme, The excavation of reflection can be called wonderful, and the fact that the film "Perfume" can cause controversy itself makes people see the profound heritage of the work, because the whole story is worthy of in-depth discussion, even analysis and research.
Of course, subjective off-site factors must also be taken into account. Evan Bell was born in the United Kingdom. Compared with Mexico, which is far away in South America, France naturally prefers European friends. Evan Bell’s own Chinese heritage also won the judges. The inclination of the chairman of the association, Wong Kar-wai, not to mention the delicate shots and rich colors in the "perfume" are the highlights of Wong Kar-wai's incomparable heart. Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Evan Bell finally won the Best Director Award in the contest with Alejandro Gonzalez Inaritu.
It can be seen from this that even though the Shana Film Festival is unpopular, its commercial essence cannot be erased. It takes care of all aspects and ensures that everyone is happy. The art of dividing the cake must be deeper in Shana. of attainments. In any case, the controversy will continue after the 59th Shana Film Festival ends, but the dust has settled on the awards.
"Perfume" is known as one of Evan and Bell's most outstanding works at present, and its related hot topics are endless, just a sentence "Stanley-Kubrick thinks it is impossible to adapt the work, in Evan Bell There is an amazing vitality under the camera..." is enough to attract everyone's attention. Before that, everyone thought that "Perfume" was an impossible work to adapt. Now Evan Bell's "Perfume" has not only been released, but also won explosive heat, and even won the Shana movie. The best director award at the festival is enough to show that this film is worth looking forward to.
More importantly, "Perfume" is different from Evan-Bell's previous three works. Although it is still an independent production, the investment scale, cast, and topic effect have all reached a new height. According to the line of commercial films, the original work is adapted, but the effect of this work on commercial topics easily surpasses that of Evan Bell's three previous directorial works. Therefore, people have reason to look forward to the box office of this literary film.
As a result, the Shana Film Festival has not yet ended, and audiences in the United States have already begun to look forward to the full release of the film. However, to the "disappointment" of the audience, Eleven Studio announced that "Perfume" will be released at the end of September after participating in the Toronto Film Festival, which means that everyone has to It took nearly four months to see Evan Bell's work on the big screen.
But what is gratifying is that although there is still a long time before the release of "Perfume", Evan Bell's "The Queen Wearing Prada" and the long-awaited "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" are all about to be released. , This is the first time after a year, Evan Bell once again joined the battle of the summer file, and there is also "Pirates of the Caribbean 2, this high-profile giant crocodile, coupled with the sensitive relationship between Eleven Studios and Disney, What kind of achievements Captain Jack can create this summer is more and more worth looking forward to. Therefore, in the summer vacation of Z years, the audience has another work worth looking forward to. This is a summer that will never be lonely.
The Shana Film Festival came to a close on May 28. The end of one film festival only means that the past year has come to an end, and it also means that the excitement of next year has begun again.
The 59th Shana Film Festival has only ended in two days. When Evan Bell appeared in Nice on the 30th to continue his world tour, the news of the Shana Film Festival became lively again, and it was still the same. It is related to Evan Bell, and it is far more shocking than the unpopularity of the Best Director Award.
