Chapter 279 Insider Information
Art films are of high quality and are not popular among the general public. They are regarded as the highest level by the three major European film festivals. But in fact, there are many directors in Europe who want to make art films to win awards and commercial films to make money.
Even the Cannes Film Festival, which traditionally rejects commercial films and prefers to pursue the artistry of art films, is not so pure at times.
Take Greta for example. She has only co-directed one art film, and the rest of her films are all commercial films. However, she still sat on the position of chairman of the Cannes jury this year with her strong box office appeal and her own popularity.
Therefore, Greta has always regarded commercial films and art films as two parallel but non-intersecting lines, and has never distinguished between high and low.
In her opinion, as a rare Asian face in Hollywood, Nicole could gain popularity by playing supporting roles in commercial films directed by big directors. She could also make a name for herself in Hollywood and become familiar to many directors, which would allow her to get more opportunities in the future.
Coincidentally, Greta's view coincides with Yang Xi's plan.
"You can find time to watch Martin Kubrick's recently released film, The Game Hunter." As the sky gradually darkened, Yang Qian and Su Lingxi sat side by side in the limousine heading to the Cannes red carpet, talking in low voices from time to time. "It's a science fiction action film with an exciting plot. Kubrick's artistic imagination is still as good as ever. And the most important thing is - you should have heard that he made a new generation British actress famous with this film."
"Are you talking about Olivia Emerson?" As the limousine drove into the security area near the red carpet, the various excited voices around them obviously increased a lot. Su Lingxi said casually, "I've seen it. Game Hunter is very well made. Emerson's performance in the film is also very good. Major institutions are now predicting whether the final global box office of this film will fall above 5 million US dollars."
"Maybe. Although the leading actors are not well-known, the name Martin Kubrick is like a golden sign in the eyes of movie fans. At least they will be nominated for the Best Visual Effects Award at this year's Oscars." Yang Qian shrugged. "It's a pity that we don't have the channels to connect with a big director like Kubrick for the time being. Otherwise, his films would actually be our best choice."
Hearing this, Zhang Wenya and Zhu Hanqiu nodded in agreement.
Su Lingxi smiled and didn't respond, but she knew in her heart what Yang Qian meant.
Martin Kubrick has a high status and rich experience in Hollywood. He has always focused on commercial films and has a high reputation around the world. For Chinese people, his films represent the most classic blockbuster genres in Hollywood. He is not only good at science fiction and action films, but also dabbles in war films and biographical films. He has directed many classics in film history.
Of course, his global influence is only one of his advantages. What is even more attractive is that Martin Kubrick often likes to discover newcomers to act in his movies. Regardless of nationality or skin color, as long as they meet his requirements, they have the possibility of getting a role.
For example, in this "Game Hunter", in addition to Olivia Emerson, Kubrick also deliberately added two Asian characters to the protagonist group, played by Japanese singer Mori Sakigawa and Chinese-American Jack Zhao.
This kind of combination of people of different nationalities and skin colors is not uncommon in Hollywood. After all, on the surface, they always like to advocate equality for all, but they say one thing and do another when it comes to actual actions.
There are many directors who like to use Asian characters to discredit Asian countries in their movies.
There are very few directors like Martin Kubrick who not only boldly give foreign actors performance opportunities but also are willing to give character arcs.
What's more, he is a famous commercial director in Hollywood. Even the A-list stars signed by CAA, no matter how high their status is in their daily life, would be happy to star in Kubrick's movies if they were given the opportunity.
In this case, as an Asian actor, being able to work with Martin Kubrick is definitely a one-in-a-million opportunity.
"Are you sad because you can't work with Kubrick?" Yan Xi's joking question interrupted her thoughts.
Su Lingxi smiled suddenly and said jokingly, "I don't think it's necessary. Some unexpected turn of events might happen tonight."
"Really? But..." Zhang Wenya glanced at the two of them carefully, "Didn't Selina say that our chances of winning the award..."
Seeing her cautiousness, Su Lingxi laughed, "It's true that the chances of 'A Dream in Paris' winning an award at Cannes are slim, but that doesn't mean we won't have a chance to talk to Martin Kubrick later."
"Did Kevin tell you something?"
"It's not him, but I took advantage of his reputation to bully others." Su Lingxi cleared her throat. "After the premiere a few days ago, Greta Mirren revealed some information to me. It was inside information about the casting of Martin Kubrick's next film."
"Greta Mirren?"
"Ah? The president of the jury at Cannes this year?"
"When did this happen?" Yang Xi asked excitedly and surprised, "The premiere of 'Paris at Night'? But I don't remember Greta coming to our premiere that day."
Selina's fame in France is already there, and with the added bonus of Su Lingxi, the Berlin Film Queen, the premiere of "Paris at Night" attracted many media and film critics, as well as some movie fans who often come to the European Film Festival to watch films.
The overall scene was very lively, and the film screening often aroused sighs or excited discussions from the audience. Especially at the end, a short but unforgettable love was destroyed, which earned the tears of the audience.
But no matter how many audience members and film critics there are in the screening room, Yang Qian doesn't think she will fail to recognize Greta Mirren - what's more, there are European media waiting in the screening room who are always paying attention to the judges' every move. If Mirren wants to come and leave quietly, it will be extremely difficult.
"She didn't attend the premiere. She came backstage to see me directly after the premiere." Su Lingxi was in a good mood and raised her voice. "Maybe my performance touched her? In short, she revealed some information to me. This should be considered a 'little secret' between her and me."
