Chapter 121 Cannes Film Festival Finalist!
The atmosphere of the crew of "Titanic" is very harmonious, even full of laughter.
When James Cameron was filming "Titanic" in his previous life, he used "high pressure" to rule the entire crew.
Whether it is the staff, or the ensemble, even Xiao Lizi and Fat Wen have complained about James Cameron many times later.
He's been dubbed "the tyrant on the set," and it's hell to make a movie with him.
This rigor has also created the world's No. 1 box office for a long time in the previous life "Titanic".
Chu Xuan is the exact opposite. He is better at using his charisma to make actors and staff willing to cooperate with his director.
At the same time, the salary he gave was high enough, the atmosphere on the set was good enough, and everyone was happy to help Chu Xuan make this movie well.
What's more, the two leading actors, Chu Xuan and Elizabeth Olsen, have already formed a considerable tacit understanding.
With just one look, Ao Mei can quickly understand the meaning of Chu Xuan.
Since the start of the film for half a month, the filming progress of "Titanic" has been 15% faster than planned, which fully demonstrates the positive effect of couples acting in romantic films.
Of course, couples also make some mistakes.
For example, at the beginning of the film, on the deck of the big ship, when Jack meets Ruth for the first time.
Jack was sketching on the side of the boat, talking to some friends.
In order to avoid "693" to avoid the depressed atmosphere, Ruth came to the deck.
The moment Jack saw her, he forgot the whole world.
"Can you make money by drawing... hey, man? Oh, I get it, pull it off, that kind of girl isn't for people like us.
Jack ignored his companions, still staring at Ruth.
At this moment, Ruth inadvertently glanced in Jack's direction...
"Cut!""
James Cameron reluctantly stopped and looked at Chu Xuan.
"What's wrong?
Chu Xuan came to the camera and saw the footage just now.
When Ao Mei looked at Chu Xuan, she was obviously full of affection.
Although she was depressed and reminded herself repeatedly that she was filming, the moment she saw Chu Xuan, Aomei's eyes were always full of heat.
"Indeed, sister Ao, come here."
When Aomei encountered NG, she stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.
"Look at this passage, Ruth doesn't know Jack at all at this time, and her eyes should be indifferent. You're better, it feels like reunion after a long absence."
"I can't control it, when I see you..."
"Okay, okay." Chu Xuan quickly stopped her, so as not to show affection on the set.
"You have another one, this time I won't show up, just take your shots.
"Cut!""
James Cameron had no choice but to shout, but he was only an assistant director, and he had to see what Chu Xuan meant.
"Where are you looking, look at the camera."
"Sorry, I will be in place next time. 35 Aomei quickly adjusted her state.
Before filming "Border Slayer" and "Mad Max", her eyes could be ruthless.
As a result, it still cannot enter the state.
Fortunately, the third time she finally passed.
"Break 15 minutes!
After shooting a set of scenes, Chu Xuan called for a break, and Ao Mei hurried over.
"Baby, are you angry?
"No, I'm angry!"
"Ah... I will definitely be able to adjust my state in the future, but I haven't filmed with you for a long time, so I'm so excited. 35
"Just kidding, your performance is very good.
"Humph! Bullying me again!"
Ao Mei was lying in Chu Xuan's arms and acted like a spoiled child.
Not far away, a gaze looked straight at this place.
"Miss Kendrick, is the schedule okay for tomorrow? Hello? Are you listening?
"Sorry, just thought of other things... this schedule is fine.
After work, Anna Kendrick is a little lost.
Since that night, she has often fallen into a daze.
His eyes also turned to Chu Xuan's direction from time to time.
But on the set, Chu Xuan always had Elizabeth Olsen by his side.
Anna could only watch them silently, unable to do anything.
"Forget it, when the filming is over, just resign.""
Anna Kendrick smiled wryly, and finally made a decision.
As time went on, the Titanic news also attracted a lot of attention online.
The "Oscar Boxing Incident" brought a new wave of traffic to Chu Xuan, and fans continued to watch Chu Xuan's previous classic films, thus becoming his fans.
Even in Northern Ireland, where people are few and pure, there are many movie fans who come to the crew to get Chu Xuan's autograph and group photo.
The stills of "Titanic" were also continuously released through the film's official Twitter, triggering extensive discussions among netizens.
"As expected of a real CP, both of them have light in their eyes.
"I'm so envious. I think they were pretending to be couples on Twitter, but they turned out to be real couples."
"I was a fan of them from "Ghost Records", I thought they were two passers-by at the time, but I didn't expect the two to become Hollywood superstars.
"However, I feel that Chu Xuan and Anne Hathaway are more CP.
"Here! Get out!"
"Actually, Chu Xuan and Taylor have a strong sense of CP."
While ordinary netizens are knocking cp, the media are also paying attention to the film itself.
“Chu Xuan’s new film Titanic is in the process of being filmed, and it can be seen that this is a true romance and a new territory for Chu Xuan. 35
"He won the Best Picture, Best Director and many other awards for "The Godfather" in the Oscars just past. Unfortunately, he is now shooting a youth romance film, which is a bit out of the best director's style.
In response to the New York Times opinion piece, the Los Santos Times retorted:
"Recently, some media and netizens said that Chu Xuan's new film "Titanic" was not of enough style and was a vulgar youth love commercial film. This kind of remarks obviously entered a misunderstanding."
"Throughout the history of film, there are not a few wonderful and great romantic films. "Roman Holiday", "Blue Bridge", "Casablanca"... These are all classic love films that are enough to be recorded in film history.
"Love is the greatest invention of human beings, and it is people's beautiful yearning.
"It is true that most of the 20-year-old romance films are youth romantic comedies that cater to the business, full of vulgar jokes, and fast-food emotions. But there is no denying Chu Xuan's level of writing and directing.
"At first, the whole world questioned his musical films, the whole world questioned his gangster films, and the whole world questioned his sci-fi films. Later, everyone knew what Chu Xuan brought us!""
"La La Land, The Godfather, Interstellar!"
"What else is more convincing than these three films? We have reason to believe that Chu's new film is worth looking forward to."
In the past, the media questioned Chu Xuan one-sidedly, but now there is no need for him to do anything, and the media have already started to refute each other.
It can be seen from this that Chu Xuan's continuous success has made the world recognize his talent and believe it. …
At present, on the Internet, some movie fans have begun to discuss "Titanic", and even did pre-rehearsal work in advance to learn more about the history of the original Titanic.
The more they learned, the more fans wondered, how exactly did Chu Xuan film the most famous shipwreck in history?
How did he perfectly integrate the elements of love into it?
It is hard for everyone to imagine, and can only hope that the filming of this film will be completed as soon as possible.
While the film was still filming, fans around the world began to look forward to Chu Xuan's new film.
During the filming of "Titanic", a profound discussion was taking place in Cannes, France, not far from Northern Ireland.
At the headquarters of the French Film Institute, Pierre Lesqueres, director of the Cannes Film Festival, and Thierry Fumau, the artistic director, are organizing an important discussion.
Today's meeting has only one purpose, which is to select the shortlist for this year's Cannes Film Festival, including the main competition unit and a kind of attention, non-competition, short films and other units.
Cannes is one of the most well-known film festivals in the world, and it is also one of the most fair film awards in the world.
Countless filmmakers have worked hard for many years to make a film for the election. It is also not an easy task to select a convincing shortlist among the many films in many countries.
After several days of watching the film, the participating judges already came to their own conclusions.
"...Next we'll determine the Asian part."
"The results of the day island works are as follows: 'The Thief's Family', 'Night and Night'.""
"There is only one film in the West Eight Kingdoms: "Burning."
"Dragon Kingdom has two: "The Children of Jianghu" and "Mulan".
"Do you have any questions?"
At this time, a judge raised his hand and said:
"Judging from the action scenes and the rhythm of the film, "Mulan" is obviously a commercial blockbuster, which is not consistent with the tonality of our film festival?
Yet Thierry Fumau, artistic director of the Cannes Film Festival, asked rhetorically:
"I don't remember, the association has a rule that it must be a literary film, right? And where is the boundary between a literary film and a commercial film? What is the standard for distinguishing?"
"I...but, our tradition..."
"Nothing wrong with 3.5. In the past, there was indeed an unwritten habit. The films shortlisted in the main competition were all literary films, but can you deny that "Mulan" is bad?"
"cannot."
"Isn't this the end, are there any other questions... Since there is none, the list of breakouts for the main competition unit of this year's film festival is set like this."
A day later, news of the Cannes Film Festival quickly spread around the world.
"Recently, the 71st Cannes Film Festival announced the list of shortlisted films in the main competition unit, which caused some controversy."
"The films nominated by our country include "The Four Heavenly Kings of Di Renjie", "Children of Jianghu", "355 Agent", "The Last Night of Earth", and the new film "Mulan" starring Zhao Jinmai and directed by Wen Ziren.
"Among them, "Di Renjie" and "355" films with obvious commercial elements were not selected.
""The Last Night of Earth" was selected as a kind of attention unit. Jia Kechang's "Children of Jianghu" was shortlisted for the main competition unit."
"It is quite controversial that "Mulan" has successfully entered the main competition unit by virtue of the attributes of a commercial film! I have to say, this is a progress of the Dragon Kingdom film!"
"It is reported that the film's investor is Infinite Pictures. The screenwriter and producer are both the director of the Dragon nationality who has just won the Oscars, Chu Xuan!"
