Nick James, as one of the most elite film critics in the world, is naturally worried about the status quo of film critics.

Now, PR practitioners have formed a huge army between filmmakers and film critics, blocking the productive and interesting exchanges between the two.

In the early years, film critics could casually meet filmmakers at film festivals, chat side by side in bars, and even hang out all day. Instead of asking pitifully for "interview time quotas" from PR firms that hold the power of life and death, as is the case today.

"At the heart of film culture is communication and debate, a continuous dialogue between the people who make the film and the people who comment on the film. We have to know everything about how a film is made, we have to know how the actors are What happened, what happened to the director. Only in this way can an excellent film review be written.”

Nick James sighed with emotion.

Tang En paused and said: "In the era of new media, there is more and more information, and the massive amount of information makes it difficult for people to have enough time to read a long article...or a book like in the past. For movie fans It doesn't matter whether the film review is good or not. You just need to tell them whether the film is good or not, and whether it is worth buying a ticket to see it, that's enough."

Nick James hesitated for a moment, before speaking.

He knew that with Dunn's current energy, if he made a move, he might be able to change the status quo of film critics. After all, IMDB, the largest movie database today, belongs to New Universal.

It's just that Dunn himself is a main force in the new media industry, how could he possibly help?

Under the changing situation of the big times, Nick James is powerless.

Seeing that this topic was a bit difficult to talk about, Kate Winslet said with a smile: "Dawn, speaking of it... You and Mr. James still have a lot of fate. He used to have a rock band and signed with Isle Records. It belongs to Universal Music."

Tang En's eyes lit up, "I didn't expect you to be a musician?"

Nick James waved his hand, "I'm a failed rock singer. I had a crazy experience in the 1970s and 1980s. I changed three bands in eight years. The first band was punk, then the New wave band. I was in the second band for two years and did a European tour with the members and it was an unforgettable memory. But Kate was wrong, we were just recording songs with the help of Island Records , they didn't choose to sign us."

Dunn can understand.

In those days, rock bands were everywhere.

Bands without market effects are difficult to be signed by record companies.

Tang En smiled and said, "I'm glad I didn't sign a contract at the beginning, otherwise wouldn't the world be missing a great film critic?"

Nick James shook his head, smiled self-deprecatingly, and said, "Sight and Sound magazine is actively responding to your feminist cry, and we have developed a great interest in female filmmakers. In the next few years, we will start Launch a series of stories about female filmmakers, such as "The Female Gaze: 100 Forgotten Films by Female Directors."

The nature of the dialogue between the two parties must not be casual exchanges in private. This kind of formal and semi-formal dialogue is actually equivalent to an interview, and it is likely to be published in the form of an article tomorrow.

Dunn is very clear about this, so he did not dare to be careless and said sternly: "Of course, New Universal has also been working hard to improve the status of female filmmakers. We have produced many films directed by women. In the future... Maybe we can see A Marvel movie made by a female director. In fact, a movie made by a woman director can also be famous in history, such as Shantan Ackerman's "Jeanne Dieman," which is fascinating."

Nick James said excitedly: "Yes, that movie is also my favorite! It's a pity that there are really too few similar works that have been discovered. The problem lies in the entire film industry. This system does not give women Allow enough space. This has led to many film review organizations, most of which are male judges. They are better at digging out the works of male directors. "Citizen Kane" is the biggest success. Now, it is time to give more opportunities to the works of female directors. ."

Tang En took a deep look at the other party, not knowing whether these words were sincere or in keeping with the trend of the times.

He really didn't believe that a man would sincerely promote feminism.

He himself is a typical representative.

He has been to many places over the years.

What makes him feel most comfortable...is not the motherland, not the warm Caribbean Sea, not Hawaii with romantic beaches, nor France with mellow wine.

It's Japan, it's Korea.

It's very simple, where men are superior to women, and the patriarchal culture is serious.

Especially in the entertainment industry, it is almost brainwashing, requiring female artists to cultivate the humiliation ability to accept sexism from a young age, to be obedient, to show women's gender signs all the time, and even to be more "beautiful" Some, the brokerage company will also specially show them adult videos, let them learn...

When Tang En went to that kind of social environment, he felt that he was an emperor who could do anything.

Don't be too cool.

In places like Britain and the United States... in fact, the ideas are not much different, but they are all sanctimonious and politically correct.

Tang En naturally also pretended to be a little more like, nodding in agreement: "It makes sense!"

...

"uncle!"

Kate Winslet is the pride of Britain. She is the Oscar winner, and at the reception, she introduced every British celebrity to Dunn one by one.

However, a crisp and sweet voice suddenly came from behind.

In British and American countries, "uncle" is not a common word. It is either used in conjunction with a surname, or it is directly addressed by the other person's first name. Only uncles of real relatives would call them that directly.

Kate Winslet was also stunned.

Looking back, he smiled.

Isn't this the eldest girl of the Collins family - Lily Collins.

"Cough, you call me that, it will make people misunderstood!"

Dunn is a little powerless to girls of this age.

Korean and Japanese girls are very good, obedient and obedient.

The girls in Europe and America...especially the second generation of stars, all of them are quirky and eccentric.

Lily Collins just covered her mouth and snickered, pretending to be at a loss, "Why not?"

Tang En said: "Then call it Uncle Walker!"

"That's too outrageous, let's call you uncle." After speaking, Lily Collins covered her cherry lips again and giggled.

Kate Winslet looked familiar to her. "Lily, don't make a fuss. Who did you come with? Mom?"

"No, it's my old man." Lily Collins shrugged and said with some disgust, "He ran into Mr. McCartney and was talking about music over there. Two old guys, music is outdated, I still like it. Uncle's songs, every song is very nice!"

Still called uncle?

All right.

Dunn is used to it.

He really didn't mean to kidnap underage girls.

Kate Winslet was angry and funny, "Lily, you're disrespecting the artist by saying that."

"I don't care." Lily Collins pouted, and then those big, enigmatic eyes looked at the two of them and asked, "Kate, are you dating my uncle?"

"Ah?" Kate Winslet froze slightly, then frowned, a little serious, "Lily, I'm married."

Lily Collins' big eyes seemed to be able to talk, and they shone brightly, "After the party...you two separated?"

Kate Winslet stopped talking, turned her head and glanced at Dunn.

Okay.

The star chasing girl has appeared!

It's pretty strict!

Dunn also had a headache, "Lily, your mother and I are very good friends..."

"Uncle, you can stay at my house tonight."

Lily Collins didn't wait for Dunn to finish speaking, then interrupted him directly and spoke quickly.

"what?"

Dunn thought he had heard it wrong.

Go to your home?

Even if your mom doesn't come back from Los Angeles, what about your dad?

Did you make a mistake!

"No, it's inconvenient. You're still underage, so it's not suitable to consider these issues now, and it's also good for your body..."

Before Tang En finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lily Collins again. She widened her eyes in shock and exclaimed, "Uncle, what are you talking about? Oh my god, there are many rooms in my house. I don't want you to live in a hotel with too many people. Oh my god, you don't think you want to sleep with me, do you? Oh my god I'm only 15 years old! Uncle, you don't think so And...that? God, you're so bad!"

Dunn was dumbfounded.

The last time I saw her, she also behaved politely, obviously having a good British education.

Unexpectedly, she came to her home court this time, and it was really natural.

It's more eccentric than little Taylor!

On the other side, Kate Winslet couldn't help but pursed her lips and laughed.

Sometimes the way to fight power is to be innocent.

uh... maybe virginity?

Kate Winslet knows Dunn too well.

Regardless of his sanctimonious appearance, he seems to be avoiding underage girls, acting like a gentleman. However, if he didn't have any ideas in his heart, how could he allow Lily Collins to be so rambunctious?

Flick your sleeves and leave, just ignore it.

Like little Taylor in America.

She has been spoiled for several years, and the final result...isn't she trying to get closer to the relationship between men and women?

Sure enough, what Tang En said next really confirmed some of her guesses.

"Forget it, there is a Liverpool game tomorrow, I will be there to watch the game, and the schedule over there is arranged." Dunn has made an appointment and will go to Highbury Stadium with Abu tomorrow to watch the game.

This is Dunn's first time to the stadium to watch Liverpool's game.

"Ball game? Can I go?" Lily Collins' eyes seemed to sparkle.

Dunn looked at her, "Can you watch football?"

Lily Collins said unconvinced: "How can there be an Englishman who doesn't understand football?"

Tang En didn't hesitate and blurted out: "Then let's go together, but you have to be obedient and not cause trouble."

Lily Collins gave a ladylike smile, winked her eyes, and said softly, "Don't worry, I won't embarrass you."
