She dominates the entertainment industry with her disaster system

The shooting rhythm of Selina in this scene was very tight, without too long foreshadowing. When the plot progressed to the part where Betty was carrying a suitcase and walking towards the plane alone, Greta could not help but press the pause button and sat up straight with excitement: with little change in color tone, makeup and style, the actor's subtle changes in facial expressions were able to show the heroine's completely different states and moods, allowing the audience to see at a glance what emotion this scene wanted to express - before this, Greta had never seen a young girl with such great acting skills, and she was an Asian, which is particularly rare in Hollywood.

In fact, this is already the second scene in the film that was shot in one take, and Selina obviously did not make any edits to the entire scene. This scene was entirely a brilliant segment that she performed with her own personal strength!

How did this girl do it? Who is she? Is she really the new Hollywood star that Kevin Cowan wants to promote?

Greta just felt that all this was completely beyond her expectations - it was incredible!

She scrolled back and forth to watch this segment several times. As time passed, Greta gradually regained her composure. She took a deep breath and pressed the button to continue playing again. "No wonder Selena called her her miracle girl on Instagram..."

To be honest, after watching the later part of the movie, Greta no longer had much expectations for the plot of the movie itself - in her opinion, the love story of mutual redemption and final BE was a bit old-fashioned. In comparison, the fantastic and magnificent romantic adventure of the hero and heroine in the first half was more worth watching.

To some extent, she only needs a cursory glance to guess Selina's intentions, techniques, and metaphors in the film.

In this final period of time, Greta prefers to focus 70% of her attention on Nicole, this oriental beauty who surprises her again and again. Not only is her appearance outstanding, but her changes in mentality and performance advancement are also charming and full of charm.

Even Simon Pride, who had originally performed quite well, was overshadowed by her.

It was not until the camera froze on the last scene where Grenouille exploded due to reading the letter that Greta felt the outstanding performance of the male lead in the film. "It is said that he is a new actor who is even younger than Nicole? What a pity. His performance is excellent, but not as good as the female lead. The advantages of the character setting are not fully utilized. The feeling of a gloomy and morbid beautiful boy is well portrayed..."

As the ending music sounded, subtitles began to scroll on the large TV screen. Greta continued to lean back in her chair, letting her thoughts immerse in her own inner world.

Regardless of whether Simon's character setting is good or bad, this is a movie that definitely belongs to the heroine Betty, and also to Nicole. In addition to her surprising plasticity, her performance is more delicate and layered than that of Laura, who Greta has worked with. If she were an authentic American, I'm afraid she would have a bright future in Hollywood...

Greta thought: "If I can work with her, what kind of subject matter can make us the best partners?"

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became - "Paris at Night" is a perfect cultural film, but it is not the most pleasing competition film this year. Although she has not discussed it with other jury members, Greta is sure that the Palme d'Or, the Jury Grand Prix and Best Director awards will definitely have nothing to do with this film.

As for the Best Actress and Best Actor awards, these two awards are also very uncertain.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see Nicole's ambition for an award at the Cannes Film Festival. Based on her understanding of this girl, Greta is certain that she will not give up on the European market just because of this failure. Instead, she may become more courageous as she faces more setbacks.

Maybe they can work together. Although they have never worked with Asian actors, Greta thinks it is not impossible to be brave and give it a try...

After a long time, Greta slowly came back to her senses and cut off her thoughts that were drifting aimlessly further and further away.

Unlike Mia Selina who has never left the French film industry, Greta recently released a light comedy fantasy adventure film. The film deconstructs and satirizes the patriarchal society in a conservative way. It is a bold attempt in the film industry system. The result is very good, with global box office and reputation. Not only did it win eight nominations at the Oscars, Golden Globes and other award ceremonies, but it also created a lot of momentum for Greta, a rare female director in Hollywood.

It can be said that Greta is now one of the famous directors in Hollywood who has her own traffic and attention. The reason why Cannes invited her to serve as the jury president was also considering this point, and by the way, taking advantage of her fresh popularity.

Under such circumstances that attract so much attention from the outside world, Greta has to be extremely cautious about her next work. Not only must she carefully choose the subject matter, but she must also be careful in casting.

Even if she wanted to work with this girl, now was not the time.

But——after a long silence, Greta suddenly smiled.

As a director, she believes that others, like her, are well aware of the amazing plasticity and superb acting skills Nicole has shown in this film. After "Paris at Night" is released worldwide, there will be more and more directors who want to work with her. By that time, even more powerful directors than her may favor her.

"If I remember correctly, Old Martin always seemed to love exploring the unknown side of actors, and he had the patience to cultivate new talents... I just don't know what he thinks of Asians..." Greta thought silently.

The "Old Martin" she was thinking of was Martin Kubrick, who was hailed as a new generation of Hollywood commercial film director and studied under one of the "Four Masters of New Hollywood".

Unlike the three major European film festivals that love art films, Hollywood, as the most developed center of the world's film industry, has always adhered to the principle of profit first. Art films can certainly win awards, but in the final analysis, only commercial blockbusters can bring in hundreds of millions or even billions of dollars in box office revenue.

It is the nature of businessmen to pursue profit. Since a long time ago, Hollywood's principle of profit first has blocked many European directors from wanting to develop in the United States - directors who do not have the talent to make commercial films basically find it difficult to integrate into the Hollywood circle.

Although the Cannes Film Festival is very famous, in the final analysis, the three major international film festivals are just projects for international filmmakers to entertain themselves. Whether it is the Palme d'Or or the Palme d'Silver, Hollywood does not really buy into it.

To be honest, the value of these awards may not be as high as a Golden Globe nomination.
