Reborn I am the second generation of stars

Chapter 931 Opening Ceremony
Cannes opening ceremony begins!
Naturally, the one who gave the speech was Luc Belle, the chairman of the jury!
Luc Belle said: "It is a great honor to be here today, to bring together film talents from all over the world, and we will showcase the art of film here..."

A lot of words have been said, which undoubtedly means that Cannes is now the center of art films in the world, and this is the highest palace of art films!
Of course he was not wrong, indeed!
If Hollywood is the business center of the world, then Cannes represents the pinnacle of art films!

And Cannes is also good at flexibility, unlike the Berlin Film Festival and Venice Film Festival next door, which have been shaken by the impact of commercial films!

Cannes is very smart to cooperate with Hollywood, and it is inclusive and good at cultivating descendants. Therefore, although it is still tied with the Berlin Film Festival and the Venice Film Festival, it has already surpassed them!
This is why there are still so many filmmakers still flocking to Cannes, because it does have a lot of influence!

There are so many good movies this year!
Japanese director Honda's new work "Fengyun" is simply not to the appetite of those judges. This is a black and white silent film, which has brought back many people's memories!

In addition, the male and female protagonists here are very straightforward. Generally, such crisp movies can attract the attention of the judges, because this is "sacrifice for art"!

This is why so many actresses are still famous in the end!
If they want to break through the limitations of their past, they must take it off, and they will not be recognized if they don't take it off!

In addition to Chen Xuanli, the Chinese director, Jia Ding Jiadao also came over!
Jia Ding, born on May 1970, 5 in Fenyang City, Xinjiang Province, is a director, screenwriter, and producer in Mainland China. He graduated from the Literature Department of Yanjing Film Academy.

Strictly speaking, he is not a direct descendant of Cannes!
In 1997, his debut feature film "Xiaosheng" won the Youth Forum Award at the 48th Berlin International Film Festival and the New Wave Award at the 3rd Busan International Film Festival.

In 2000, the feature film "Platform" he directed won the Asian Film Promotion Alliance Award at the 57th Venice International Film Festival.

In 2006, the feature film "Good Man" he directed won the Golden Lion Award at the 63rd Venice International Film Festival.

He had hardly been in contact with Cannes before!

If anything!
In 2007, he was awarded the title of "Young Global Leader" by the Davos Economic Forum.

In 2008, he was awarded the rank of officer of the French Order of Letters and Arts.

Perhaps it was also officially at that time that he got in touch with the French literary and art circles!
In any case, this is the first time Jardin has competed in Cannes, and his work has naturally attracted much attention!
His work is called "Old Man", and the heroine is, as expected, his wife!

This is still a realistic theme, and Jardin is indeed one of the few directors in China who still insists on realistic themes!
The narrative structure of "The Old Man" selects three time points in 1989, 2004, and 2015, and tells the story of the protagonists Zhang, Shen and others from getting together to finally parting because of feelings or for life.

The film focuses on the separation and separation of characters. In the film, "parting" scenes can be seen everywhere, whether it is a friend fighting for a lover, a husband and wife divorced because of emotional disharmony, or an elderly father who died suddenly due to illness, and his own flesh and blood went away. , the joys and sorrows of the little people are gradually magnified, which in turn resonates with the audience. "

Everyone can only walk with you for a while", this line printed on the promotional poster of the movie "The Old Man" condenses all the sudden reunions and partings in the film, and shows them to the audience. The emotions in the film are touching, Many movie viewers began to reflect on their relationship with their parents and family. "The closer people are, the easier it is to hurt each other, such as parents and lovers." Will be farther and farther away from the 'old friend'"; "Everyone must have a key to go home." In addition to focusing on the stories of the little people, the description of the living conditions at these three time points also implies the past, present, and future. comparison, imagination and thinking.

Looking at the whole story, it is not difficult to see the director's intentions. Although there are not too many disturbances in a heartfelt work, the details and characterization are just right.

The scene where Shen dances alone in the film is touching, and it echoes the beginning and end of the disco, expressing a feeling that the peach blossoms are still there, and things are different.

The performances of the actors in the film are as regular as the development of the plot. On the contrary, the mother-child relationship staged by Zhang and Dong as guest stars is quite impressive and amazing, while Jia Ding still continues to guest-star passers-by in his films.

From a gangster, a miner, an archaeologist to the coal mine boss in the previous film, the change in guest appearance is also a reflection of his own growth.

While the Chinese film market is booming as a whole, literary and artistic films are still gloomy and cold under the prosperity. The works are either popular or not popular; Broad markets are always weak.The successful breakout of "The Old Man" is due to the director's carelessness, which accurately captures the emotional changes of people's reunion and parting, and shows it in a literary and artistic way of expression, which is used as the selling point of the film and clearly expresses the selling point. Spread the word through word of mouth!

. . . . . . . . . .

Although Xu Qian couldn't stand watching this movie, it can be seen that the director put his heart into it!

And China needs this kind of movie, it cannot be blindly commercial, and of course it cannot be blindly literary!
Europe is the best example. Blind literature and art are defeated by Hollywood!
It should be based on business, supplemented by literature and art, this is the right way!
Jia Ding's movie can't stand it, but Chen Xuanli's "The King" made Xu Qian mesmerized!
As expected of a great director's movie, you can tell the quality as soon as you shoot it. No matter how bad a great director's movie is, it's not too bad!
The premiere of "The King" stunned foreigners. Not only the elegant martial arts figure, but also the realistic fighting scenes simulated by the computer, plus the lightness of the heroine in the play, made foreign audiences stunned. of.

Xu Qian also couldn't help sighing: "Master Chen's attainments in photography and screen are the pinnacle!"

Master Chen was born as a photographer. If he hadn't become a director later, he should be the number one photographer in China!

His accomplishments on the screen can be described as horror, and every move is simply picturesque. It can be said that every frame is a work of art, unique and memorable!
"This is the master!"

Xu Qian sighed!

A master is still a master when he is in decline, and his level is far from what the young people of today can compare to!
The mediocre works of masters are the pursuit of others in life!

What's more, this "King" is the work that Master Chen wants "The Return of the King", which represents his ambition, how could it not be wonderful!
But Xu Qian was also a little worried about Master Chen's work!
Because the relationship between Chen Xuanli and this year's Cannes jury chairman Luc Belle is very bad, it can even be described as poor, it is said that he was almost rejected by Cannes!

The relationship with the chairman of the jury is not good. It is conceivable that "The King" is struggling in Cannes, and it may be the end of nothing!

And at this time, "The Departed Walker" is also released!
