Chapter 1914： thunderous applause

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

This is the third time Evan Bell has landed in Venice. Just as people have always liked to call Venice the "Blessed Land" of Evan Bell, the audience once again sent Evan Bell to the throne of God with the warmest applause. When "Juno" announced the end with a comic-style humor in the joyful and brisk music, the audience stood up collectively with bright smiles on their faces, and then used all their strength to agitate their palms in the most direct way. Applause to convey his inner turbulence and boiling.

This is the most dazzling moment of the 65th Venice. The 600 spectators in the audience stood up collectively, and the thunderous applause lasted for a long time, even though Evan Bell led the crew to the forefront, again and again He signaled the audience to be quiet, but the applause still couldn't stop. This round of applause actually lasted for fifteen minutes, as if the emotions that could not be vented during this year's film festival were vented at this moment, and the applause swept through the scene like a tsunami, standing outside The people and reporters who don't know why have the illusion that the ground is shaking, but looking at the good weather outside, it is confirmed that it is not a tsunami, but all the audience inside the film palace expressed their tsunami-like applause to Egypt. Vin-Bell, admiration for "Juno".

I don't know that after more than a billion cells in the palm of the hand died, and after I don't know if the hands are still conscious, the audience gave up. Ten days of dullness was completely swept away at this moment. This is the film festival, this is called a masterpiece, and this is the power of the film.

Sunny, bright, playful, weird, sensitive, moving, warm... It is difficult to describe the feeling conveyed by a movie like "Juno". The only thing that can assure all audiences is that this is a masterpiece worthy of repeated viewing. that's enough.

Evan Bell, who stood at the front, had a bright and contented expression on his face. He liked this moment the most, not because he was addicted to applause, but because he liked the different expressions on the faces of the audience after watching his works.

Movies are such a carrier. The same movie can be tasted differently by different people, like it or dislike it, think deeply or disdain it, aftertaste or reject it, whether it is a positive emotion or a negative attitude, watching the audience because of their own works. And showing different feelings, this is a kind of enjoyment.

It's been a long time. After nearly four months of world travel, Evan Bell felt this familiar joy and happiness again, and his blood rushed again quickly, but it was different from the excitement of breathing free air and browsing the great rivers and mountains while traveling. A sense of achievement and satisfaction collided and stirred in my chest.

On the surface, it may seem that the film "Juno" is not as difficult as "Perfume" or "There Will Be Blood", but the opposite is true. "Juno" was not only Evan Bell's first attempt at an original script, but also allowed Evan Bell to experience the first bottleneck in the director's position. When sculpting this work, perhaps using the adjective cautiously It's not true, but Evan Bell is indeed crafted, and strives to integrate his rich ideas into the film completely and without trace.

In fact, the theme of "Juno" is doomed. It is very difficult for Evan Bell to integrate his own ideas without any trace like his previous works. To put it simply, what are the attitudes of the people around you when you are a teenage pregnancy, positive or negative; on the issue of abortion, the choice party or the life faction, the choice faction is the choice of the active party, and the life faction insists that no matter what the reason is, abortion is resolutely prohibited. ...These positional issues are bound to be presented during the shooting process, so the script itself has actually leaked Evan Bell's point of view.

But the point is that Evan Bell does not want the film to become a vehicle for preaching, and he tends to leave the space for thinking to the audience. So, you can imagine how serious the shooting challenge of "Juno" is.

Although the filming process of "Juno" was only a little over a month, it was a very difficult process. Now watching the response from the audience at the Venice Film Festival - and it was a positive response, and when Evan Bell returned to the limelight after a lapse of four months, Evan Bell was filled with unparalleled happiness. .

This is the happiness of being a musician and a filmmaker. The so-called popularity, the so-called box office sales, and the so-called awards are all just added value. Real happiness comes from the joy of creation, from the resonance of similar people, and from the transmission and sharing of ideas. Evan Bell is more than once grateful that he has a second chance, not only because he has another life, but also because he has the opportunity to see his dreams.

In the question-and-answer session of the audience, the issue of abortion is naturally the biggest hot spot. In Europe, the sensitivity of abortion is not inferior to that in the United States, and the intensity is definitely comparable. Therefore, it is similar to "Evan, you film such a scene. The movie is to express support for the 'life faction' and firmly oppose abortion, right?" There are endless questions.

Evan Bell couldn't help laughing helplessly. In fact, from the story line of the movie, Juno chose to give birth to a child and chose a good mother for the child. This really seems to be singing an ode to the life faction. . But it's not the case, "No, no, I never express my views clearly in the film, I just filmed a story, I hope you can find your own answers from this story, whether it is life or choice. , in fact, you can find your own point of view in 'Juno'."

Evan Bell has always hoped that the audience can reflect on his own works, because he firmly believes that what others give is opinions, and thinking is what he is doing. Movies are not a propaganda carrier for beliefs, nor are they a way of scientific education. Movies are just a refraction of the director's consciousness. As for the impact and thinking that this refraction surface projects into the hearts of every audience, it is the audience's own business. .

Because there are so many related problems, even if Evan Bell explained it, including Ellen Page and others, they have repeatedly said that they are "choices", but the problems are still endless. Evan Bell had to interrupt the audience's concentrated bombardment of Jennifer Garner, took the microphone and said, "I think everyone has misunderstood. This film is actually using Juno's pregnancy to illustrate a problem of choice. "

"What I want to say is that life will encounter countless junctures of choice, and we are often afraid to look forward and backward, which makes each choice extremely difficult, even whether to eat pizza or pasta for dinner today. It seems that the problems of life are like major events in life." Evan Bell's humor made the audience laugh, "Through Juno, I'm just expounding on a question of choice. The choice of life is important, but the more important thing is to make a choice. After that, we use it to take on the future we choose. Pregnancy is like this, and so is other things in life. So I don't think there is any need for everyone to be so obsessed with abortion, because it is not the main body of the story. Let everyone put it Keep your own choices in your heart, ask all other questions, the actors will not accept questions for this part of the question."

In fact, Evan Bell did not intend to say this idea, because in his opinion, this part is also one of the contents of the audience's reflection. But the audience was so persistent that Evan Bell almost forgot that 'Italy is a country that is extremely sensitive to abortion, and Mike Lee's "Vera-Drake" caused an uproar in Venice two years ago. . Therefore, as a last resort, in order to protect the almost unstoppable actor, Evan Bell took the initiative to change the topic.

The film "Juno" is not a story of pregnancy, let alone an abortion, but a story of choice. In fact, this movie is similar to "Mysterious Skin". Evan Bell just wants to tell a story of growth, but "Mysterious Skin" locks in the pains of growth, while "Juno" locks in growth. of confusion.

Of course, "Mysterious Skin" is a story that makes people cry, and "Juno" is a story that makes people laugh and warm. This is also the difference.

However, from a side view, after the audience applauded, the discussion of the movie was so enthusiastic This also shows that a light comedy like "Juno" has triggered far more reflection than expected. Much more.

The audience meeting after the screening of "Juno" lasted for a full hour. If the organizing committee reiterated for the third time that the press meeting was too late, it is estimated that the audience would still be reluctant to disperse.

What Evan Bell and others are going to attend is not the press conference of "Juno" - the film conference was held before the premiere, but a simple press conference before the closing ceremony of the Venice Film Festival, which is still in progress. Actors, directors and other people from Venice will all attend, which can be regarded as a small reception.

The news that the "Juno" crew was late because the audience was too enthusiastic has long been spread at the press conference, although everyone had long expected that "Juno" should not be underestimated. After all, Evan Bell's golden sign is not Fake name, but because of the subject matter of the film, the reporters are still a little conservative, and even think that Evan Bell Jianglang's point of view has a lot of support, but now? The audience in Venice proved to everyone with the most practical actions: Evan Bell produced, it will never disappoint.

In addition to the audience in Venice, the media who were fortunate to participate in the premiere of "Juno" are undoubtedly world-renowned top professional media, and they also wrote a film review for "Juno" for the first time, and praised it with a praise Opened the prelude to the review of Evan Bell's first work after winning the director's grand slam.
