Chapter 1070: Focus

\"&

The audience at the Sundance Film Festival is indeed different. The questions they ask are always very professional. They will discuss the techniques and significance of Richard's use of long shots. They will discuss the acting methods of Hugo and Charlize during the filming. They will discuss Richard's control over the rhythm of plot advancement. They will discuss Hugo's role in comedy. Actors, gypsy girls, bards and other roles have profound meaning...

This doesn’t look like a premiere at all. Rather, it’s like a professional seminar. All the audience spoke enthusiastically. Almost the whole story of "before sunrise" was broken up for detailed analysis. This made Hugo and Richard The three leading actors of De and Charlize were completely involved in the discussion on the spot, so that the reporters on the spot were useless.

In fact, Nicholas knows that reporters have a lot of questions to ask. For example, Hugo refused to choose Sundance for the Golden Globe Awards. For example, the Sundance Film Festival stole the Golden Globes limelight. For example, Hugo was in Things that have reappeared in the public after four months. For example, the so-called "triangular relationship" between Hugo and Charlize and Cameron. For example, the list of Oscar nominations that will be announced for another year. For example, this time the glory Are you willing to attend the Grammys...

Every question is so maddening. It can create a huge whirlpool of public opinion. It can be every reporter who will return with a rewarding experience. But at this moment, none of the reporters raised these topics in dismay. It is not because the entire public opinion environment is now questioning that the news media has become the supremacy of interests. Even the freedom of speech has become a weapon for their pursuit of interests-you need to know the media They are the makers of public opinion. No matter how fierce the public opinion is, they can at least protect themselves. Make themselves invincible. So they don’t need to worry about this.

It’s because the atmosphere of the entire Sundance is so different. It’s different from the Golden Globes. It’s even different from Hollywood. That kind of crazy love for movies, obsessed with movies, and focus on the scope of movies. It makes Park City like an isolated paradise. . Let everyone involuntarily immerse themselves in this lively atmosphere.

This made the reporters a little at a loss and a little confused. This feeling is really long-lost. Just like what Hugo condemned not long ago. When they habitually search for hot spots, they completely forgot. The original intention of becoming an entertainment reporter: in addition to the so-called freedom of the press, in addition to the curiosity of behind-the-scenes stories. It also comes from their interest and hobby for movies and music.

The surging of this feeling made the reporters hesitate to speak but hesitated again and again. In the end, they could only become bystanders.

The Q&A session of the entire premiere was originally planned to be 30 minutes, but it ended up lasting for a full 75 minutes. Because the film "Before Sunrise" has countless details worth discussing. After leaving the technical link, there are two protagonists in the film. The topics discussed are also full of discussion. This is not only an argument between men and women. It is also an argument between people.

After finally waiting for the enthusiastic audience to gradually leave, Robert Redford appeared in front of Hugo. He had a clear smile on his face. He waited patiently for Hugo to shake hands and hug the last audience member. After that, I walked forward. "Today is a good start."

Hugo looked at Robert in front of him. He was a little stunned. He thought he had seen Brad 20 years later. "Uh. For what?" Robert only said "beginning", but didn't say what the beginning was.

"In the future you will continue to appear at the beginning of Sundance." Robert said with a smile. "I hope this is your first appearance in Sundance. It is also an important beginning of the future."

Hugo was a little surprised. Because Robert was obviously showing his favor. I hope he can become part of Sundance's future map. Looking at Robert’s smile, Hugo suddenly realized why he thought that Robert and Brad looked alike. Not only because of their appearance, but also because of Robert in front of him. He can see that 20 years later. Brad, who won the Oscar for Best Picture with "Twelve Years as a Slave", lacked the spirit of an actor, but gained the mellowness of the producer-more accurately, the calmness of a politician.

"So. Park City always welcomes me?" Hugo just shook his mind slightly, but said with a smile. He is also a pun. Not only is it the Sundance Film Festival, but also Robert's rejection and opposition to Hugo all the time.

It is naturally impossible for Robert, the old fox, to be circumvented by Hugo's words. He just replied. "Don't you like Park City?" This is a response to Hugo. Although Robert didn't say he and Yu Guo Bing relieved his suspicion. But he did take the initiative to extend an olive branch.

This kind of ambiguity in social situations is often specious. But now Robert is obviously more grateful for being able to appear at the Sundance Film Festival "Before Sunrise". So he is more proactive. "This movie is really a masterpiece. You Where did the whimsy come from."

"Wonderful ideas? Are you sure you are talking about my movie?" Hugo's words suddenly made Robert chuckle. "Before sunrise" is precisely because there are no whimsical ideas. So start from the simplest and most basic The starting point. constitutes this movie.

"But the audience likes it. Don't they?" Robert didn't feel embarrassed at all. He still said freely. "I like it too. A hundred minutes of dialogue, but not at all boring. This is a very magical thing. thing."

"I don't expect to get the same evaluation when the movie is released." Hugo is very sensible. "Before Sunrise" is too literary, too petty, and too individual. It is destined to be a movie that is hard to get popular with the public. Although in Sundance, almost everyone is saying that the 100 minutes of this movie is not boring at all. But when it is really judged by the public, it will never be able to create the glory like "Sleepless in Seattle". "So. I was able to get so much love and support in Sundance. Richard and Charlize and I were surprised. Of course I am also very happy."

Robert was quite surprised by Hugo's response. He looked at Hugo seriously for the first time. Brad was four years older than Hugo. But Brad couldn't feel Hugo's wisdom and calmness. . Hugo has a charming temperament that makes people intoxicated. This temperament is often a gift that can only be condensed after the precipitation of the years or the ups and downs of life. But the elder Brad can't match it. Young Hugo.

Robert couldn't help being a little more curious about Hugo. But Robert's pause was an instant. His sight caught a few reporters standing not far away. He chuckled slightly. "Then we will wait for the movie. Let’s discuss it again when it is released in the United States. As for now, I think I'll give the time to the reporters. Otherwise, they will be dissatisfied with Sundance."

After speaking, Robert turned around and left calmly. Hugo put his eyes on the back of Robert's departure. This is the first time he has come into contact with the founder of the Sundance Film Festival. But he can feel that he is similar to Steven Pielberg and David Finn. The aura of Hugo. Suddenly, in Hugo's mind, there was a picture of Robert's unyielding struggle with the storm in "All Is Lost" released in 13 years.

Nicholas stood by. He was not in a hurry. He did not interrupt Hugo’s contemplation. He just watched quietly. He waited for Hugo to return to his senses. He turned his head. Then he said hello with a smile. Success. Congratulations."

Hugo smiled and shook his head. "No. I wouldn't describe it like that. You know. This is just the premiere. Don't say it hasn't been released yet. Even the critics' opinions have not been released yet. And you. Know. What exactly will you say. It's still unknown."

Nicholas immediately felt the deep meaning of Hugo's words. He immediately raised his hand to express his surrender. "At least I like this movie very much. And. I came to Park City this time. Really professional."

"Professional?" Hugo frowned slightly. He looked at Nicholas suspiciously. He didn't understand why Nicholas would use this term.

"You know. Apart from the movie itself. There are too many focal points and topics worth discussing. But..." Nicholas dragged the trailing sound. But seeing Hugo didn't mean to speak actively. He didn't mind. He continued. "But now. I have focused all my attention on the movie."

"I thought it was because of the Los Angeles Times; it was a serious newspaper." Hugo's words made Nicholas speechless for a while. In the end, he could only laugh helplessly.

Nicholas looked at several fellow reporters around him. Usually they meet Hugo. It is normal to swarm and bombard. It is impossible to be reticent. Not to mention the limited number of reporters coming to Park City this time. This also means that everyone’s interview opportunities and time have been greatly increased. In order to promote the film. Hugo must cooperate with the interview. This is also an important reason why they abandon the Golden Globe Award~www.readwn.com~ But now, reporters are one of them. They looked at each other. Obviously there were full stomach questions, but they couldn't ask any of them. Of course. Part of the reason is because when the reporters chose Park City. It means that they are not completely repulsive of independent films. At least in their hearts. They are also very curious that Hugo is standing at the Sundance Film Festival. What sparks will collide when on stage.

Now. "Before sunrise" gave an answer. The Sundance audience gave a more detailed and vivid answer. This answer silenced the reporters.

Nicholas actually first wanted to ask about Hugo missed the best actor in a drama at the Golden Globes. But the words came to his lips. Finally he swallowed. "So. For'before sunrise;, for Sundance Film Festival. What should I pay attention to?"

Hugo was stunned. He directly asked, "Are you asking me about the focus of your report?" Nicholas shrugged non-committal. Hugo looked at the five reporters standing next to him. Everyone It looked like he wanted to talk but stopped. But no one retorted. The smile on Hugo's mouth was a little more playful.

There was a moment of silence. Hugo said, "Movies. Just movies." ).
