[US Entertainment] Hollywood reverses life

After the opening ceremony, Joey and Jason went to watch the opening movie together.

This is a French movie, starring Juliette Binoche. Before the opening, Jason talked about the movie with Joey with his usual cold face, "I heard that Juliette Binoche turned down a lot of blockbusters for this movie." .”

Joy looked at the introduction in the catalog at hand - "Night of Abandonment". She remembered that this work was not very brilliant. The opening film of the Berlin Film Festival and the quality of the films in each unit were indeed not as good as Cannes and Venice.

Under the current circumstances, if the work of a certain big director comes to the Berlin Film Festival, it can only mean that the film was rejected by Venice or Cannes, or that the film is limited by the contract and must be released before May, or But this movie has already been released. In order to keep it fresh, it can only come to the Berlin Film Festival. Joey's "West Coast" belongs to the latter.

Joy didn't intend to affect other people's viewing experience, she didn't comment on the movie she had watched in her previous life, "Juliere Binoche is also a French national treasure actress, there are too many excellent French actresses, even Far more than Germany, Italy, Spain."

Jason smiled very hard, just like his character, a little cold and a little reticent, "I think most people remember her because of "The English Patient."

Joey laughed at himself, "But I only remember the peerless appearance of Ralph Fiennes in "The English Patient"."

Jason glanced sideways at Joey, "So based on your aesthetics, do you like that kind of man?"

Joey tilted his head, "Indeed, a little bit."

Jason sighed helplessly, "It seems that I have no hope of appearing in your movie in my life."

Joey laughed loudly, "Jason, don't worry, I will definitely find a way to reserve a place for you in my movie!"

Then, "Night of Abandonment" began.

This is a movie that doesn't have a single line in the first 10 minutes...

Just when everyone was full of doubts, Juliette Binoche finally shouted the first line of the whole film, "Down with that lion!"

This line with a double meaning immediately caused a long burst of laughter and set off a small climax. (The lion alludes to the Venice Film Festival's top prize, the Lion Award.)

And then, there was no more... For two and a half hours after that, the audience never had any climax or climax.

Then, the movie ends.

Joey and Jason walked out of the cinema, but they were greeted by many reporters who had film festival licenses to enter the venue. They seemed to be particularly interested in Joey, and they swarmed around him, wanting to interview Joey.

"Director Grant, have you finished watching "Night of Abandonment"?"

Joey simply stayed aside and let the reporters interview him, "Yes, I've finished watching."

"Excuse me, what do you think of this film? This opening film. Are you glad that it is not your competitor? (According to the usual practice, the opening films of major film festivals will not participate in the competition unit) "

"Uh," Joey was thinking about how to answer diplomatically, "I think..."

She continued: "The first half hour of the movie was fine, but I don't understand how the last two hours have anything to do with the first half hour?"

This sentence triggered a series of laughter from Jason on the side. He glanced at Joey with a smile, "You are so straightforward."

After Joey finished dealing with the reporters, she planned to go to other screening halls. After all, the Berlin Film Festival showed so many films at once, many of which were premieres. She had never seen them before, but she was very interested in them.

Jason wanted to go with Joey, "Grant, if you don't mind, we can go together."

But Joy refused, because she thinks aesthetics is a very personal matter, especially the taste of movies. What she wants to watch may not be what Jason wants to watch. Wouldn't it be a waste of other people's time? She declined, "I The taste is very unique, and it may not be what you are interested in, so I think it’s better to forget it.”

Jason doesn't think so. Only by following the goddess can he improve his aesthetics, and only with the guidance of the goddess can he enter the epiphany of the movie.

He emphasized again, "No. I think my taste in watching movies really needs to be improved. Only by following you can I improve my taste, right?"

Joey turned around, leaving him with a faint smile, "It's up to you."

Jason went to the service desk for Joey and brought all the materials of each movie, and handed it to Joey, "Grant, take a look, which one do you plan to watch?"

Joy glanced over, but she had already made up her mind, "I'm going to watch the Turkish movie "The Bee."

Jason immediately found the location of the screening hall, "There, let's go, and please explain to me, why did you choose this movie?"

Joey chuckled, and she looked at Jason, "Are you really planning to find me as a teacher? Like you said, to improve your film aesthetics?"

Although Jason looked obsessed and reticent, he was quite humorous, "Of course, look at the broken films I made in the past, which one can be called tasteful? When will it be available in your Just rubbing it in the movie can improve the quality."

Joey laughed again, she thought this person was really humorous, "Desperate Express or something, although it doesn't match the style, but it has an accent..."

Jason smiled with a cool look on his face, but said nothing.

After watching "The Bee", Joey and Jason watched a few other films, but her own screening hall, that is, the screening hall of "West Coast", was relatively sparsely populated, but this was what Joey expected .

Jason comforted Joey a few words, "Your movie has been released on a large scale before, and everyone who comes here must have seen it, so there must not be too many people entering your exhibition hall."

"It's okay, I can understand."

After that, Joey said goodbye to Jason, and the two went to their respective hotels separately.

In the hotel, Joey took a shower and started to check the odds and odds of his movie and other movies online.It is still too early to score the show book, and it should not come out yet, but the odds must have come out.

Among the three major European film festivals, there is an important weathervane, or two, that is, the program rating and the betting, betting, and rate.

The program score is a comprehensive score for the films participating in the competition unit by media professionals, filmmakers and film critics from all walks of life who come to participate in the film festival.

The forecast direction of the program catalog score, that is, the high-scoring movies in the program catalog, was not much different from the final selection results of the film festival in the past.

However, in recent years, since the three major film festivals have become more and more biased towards the private tastes of a few judges, there have been more incidents of works with high scores in the show magazines not winning awards, and works with low scores in the show magazines.

After all, the three major film festivals are the personal carnival of the seven judges, and have nothing to do with the masses...

However, as the ratings of the show book are often upset, gambling, lottery odds, and rates are becoming more and more trendy.

Gambling, lottery odds, and odds are a form of gambling and lottery conducted by the general public, which is the same as gambling, ball odds, and odds, but replaced by movies.

In recent years, the coincidence degree of odds, odds and the final prize is very high.

Joey clicked on the odds and rates page, and saw that the odds and rates of those entries had been released, although this is a constantly changing value, and the lower the odds and rates, the greater the possibility of winning.

But at present, "West Coast" is not the work with the lowest odds.

The work with the lowest odds is the Turkish work "Bee", which won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival in the previous life.

Joey's "West Coast" was a close second.

Joey didn't think much about it. After all, this is not the final result, but "The Bee" is indeed a very strong competitor. Although it is also very controversial, which work will not be controversial?

Even "West Coast" is controversial.

After watching the odds and rates, Joy went to bed. In the next few days, she watched a lot of exhibited works.And the score of the show book will be released soon.

The score of the program this time surprised everyone, because the favorite "West Coast" did not lead too much in the score, it was a grade lower than "Honey", but the highest score was neither "West Coast" nor "Honey", but another European master Polanski's "Shadow Writer".

"West Coast" not only scored lower than them, but also a lot lower... a very mediocre score.

Here are the showbook ratings given by filmmakers from around the world.

Joy was also surprised when she saw the result, and even felt nervous, but then she figured it out, maybe because "West Coast" has already been released on a large scale, for filmmakers, the most important thing for a movie is freshness .

Most of the other films premiered at the Berlin Film Festival. The critics have never seen them, so they are naturally fresh, and the works that can enter the competition are not ordinary works, they are all excellent, so there are other excellent and As a fresh work, "West Coast" is naturally easy to be forgotten.

This shocking result to many film media was immediately published in various media.

"The score of "West Coast" is only ranked fifth, and the odds and odds are also 4 times lower than the highest "Bee."

""West Coast" not only can't beat Polanski's "Shadow Writer", but can't even beat "Bee" by an unknown Turkish director?"

"The show magazine's rating of "West Coast" is biased. Is this another kind of liking the new and disliking the old?"

"It's unbelievable, "West Coast" is better than "Shadow Writer" no matter how you look at it, but "Shadow Writer" actually got the first rating in the magazine. Is Berlin going to be upset again this year?"

But the schedule and odds and odds are not the final result, everything depends on how the judges choose.

The author has something to say: Every time I beat Jason into Guo Da...and then change it back...laugh CRY
