This film, which once achieved a miracle at the box office in the UK, although its style tends to be a comedy, through the absurd story of several unemployed workers trying to pursue the career of gigolos, it indirectly criticizes the social status quo of the British industrial decline that has led to a large number of public unemployment. There is no humanistic connotation in it. than any other film.
Therefore, it won't be awkward for "Six Heroes of Light Pig" to win the Palme d'Or.
It once broke the box office record in the UK. If there is a Palme d'Or blessing this time, the film will perform even better at the box office in other markets outside the UK.
Then there is "The Girl Who Moves the Soul".
Winona Ryder's version of "The Girl Who Moved Soul" had no other highlights except for Angelina Jolie's crazy performance.
This time, Simon changed the heroine from Winona Ryder to Mia Kirschner, who was born with a nervous atmosphere. Compared with the one-sidedness of the original Angelina Jolie, this time Mia Kirsch Na can be said to be tit-for-tat with Julie, successfully achieving a balance with Julie with a contradictory neuroticism that is both introverted and extroverted.
Coupled with Simon personally checking the film this time, the quality of the film has risen significantly compared to before.
Now that "Six Heroes of Light Pig" has set its sights on the Palme d'Or, "Soul-moving Girl" will of course not try to get involved in the three core awards, and the main goal is the actor award.
Regardless of which Mia or Jolie wins, it will be of great benefit to the film's release at the end of August.
In addition to these shortlisted films, there is also "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which Simon privately prefers.
cannes.
On the afternoon of Saturday, May 5, at the Cannes Film Palace on the waterfront of the small town, although no competition was declared, the premiere of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was still very lively.
Li Youhu, who was wearing a Gucci golden low-cut dress, got off the concierge car, looked at the huge "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" poster above the movie palace, and looked at the dense media and media on both sides of the red carpet outside the Debussy Hall. Movie fans, listening to the cheers in their ears, suddenly felt that the difficult filming last year was so hard that they almost didn't want to live, it was completely worth it.
When the director and the other two leading actors got out of the car one after another, Li Youhu stepped forward and stepped on the red carpet with everyone, and then stopped to take pictures under the direction of the accompanying assistant on the side of the red carpet. The dense flashlights made people dizzy .
After taking the photo, as soon as he left the red carpet and entered the movie palace, Li Youhu felt a feeling of looking forward to the next one immediately.
However, when entering the screening hall, as the premiere began, Li Youhu became nervous again.
Li Youhu can still understand that filmmakers rely on movies to speak.
What if the audience doesn't like the movie?
Therefore, during the next two hours, when most people in the auditorium focused their attention on the big screen, Li Youhu's attention frequently turned to the surroundings, repeatedly looking at the reactions of the surrounding audience pretendingly or unintentionally, She pricked up her ears and listened to the voices of people around her, even if the light was dim, even if she couldn't understand French at all.
When the subtitles finally started to rise, Li Youhu thought, no one booed him, it should be... not bad.
Ok.
This idea is really worthless.
When the lights came on and there was warm applause in the auditorium, Li Youhu was still a little unsure, was he being polite?
Until the short interactive session that follows.
Li Youhu, the director and several other main creators came to the stage together. Facing the enthusiastic questions from the media and the audience, Li Youhu listened to the instant translation of the maid beside him, and finally felt relieved.
All of these people are obviously very appreciative of this movie.
In this case, the film should do well at the box office in Europe and America.
It was already evening when the premiere ended.
There will be an official reception for Daenerys Entertainment later.
Li Youhu left the movie palace, and did not rush to the party hotel immediately, but went back to a mansion owned by someone in the west of the city with Mrs. Yu who accompanied her this time, mainly to change clothes and eat something , after all, the waiting reception is definitely not suitable for feasting.
After entering the door, he let the maid help him to take off the expensive dress. Li Youhu threw himself on the sofa in the living room with only his underwear on. Excited and tired, he stretched his body wantonly. The teacher sat down beside him and said with a smile, "Sister Yu, are you envious?"
Teacher Yu, who could only enter the movie theater as an ordinary audience just now, gave her a blank look, took a sip of the soda water handed over by the waitress, and said, "You should change your clothes quickly."
"No hurry," Li Youhu sat up, crossed his legs on the sofa, and said, "Let's go after dinner, I'm really hungry."
Teacher Yu was noncommittal.
Li Youhu, who was almost bypassed, turned back and asked, "Sister Yu, why don't you become a star with me? What can you do in that performing arts school?"
After filming "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" last year, Li Youhu took advantage of the opportunity to sign under the banner of Jinshu, and then participated in a story unit of "Private Interviews with Kangxi Microservices", and was about to start filming "Love Call Transfer" in China. "I got a role in ", although, the money earned from participating in these film and television projects is not as much as the living expenses that the man gave her, but overall it is quite fulfilling.
Li Youhu also understands that he is just one of many lovers he can't count, and after all, he has to rely on himself.
As for Mr. Yu, when he was pressed into bed by someone, he took advantage of the trend to gain an additional identity. Then, after teaching Li Youhu's acting course, when the booth at Jinshu gradually spread out, he got another kind of identity from the man. A job as the director of Jinshu Performing Arts School, which will open in Suzhou soon.
Not the principal.
The main reason is that Teacher Yu himself does not want to stand in front of the stage.
So after Simon followed the corporatization model of Western private schools, Teacher Yu became the shareholder and chairman of Jinshu Performing Arts School, responsible for the school's preparations.Before going abroad, he worked as a homeroom teacher for a short time in Beijing Film Academy. In addition, even Mr. Yu himself knew that this was just acting on behalf of him and in front of his name. Many people assisted in the official preparations, so he agreed.
Hearing what Li Youhu said at this time, Teacher Yu somewhat resented: "He asked me to do it, can I not do it?"
"Tsk tsk, then break up with him," Li Youhu said in an encouraging tone, "This way you don't have to do anything."
Teacher Yu was momentarily at a loss for words.
She used to think that she was a very independent woman, but now, looking at the mansion around her, the meticulous waiter team, and the luxurious private jet she took when she came to France, she was really... a bit reluctant.In any case, although he didn't have much contact with him, that man was not annoying at all.
Seeing Teacher Yu like this, Li Youhu laughed immediately, and simply fell back on the sofa, wriggling his slender body and continuing to laugh.
Teacher Yu, whose face was blushing unknowingly, became angry from embarrassment. He rushed forward and started to tickle her: "You like to laugh, don't you? I'll let you laugh all the time."
"Hahaha, ah, itchy, haha, Sister Yu, I was wrong, I know you are not willing to break up with Simon, I shouldn't persuade you, ah, haha, really wrong, really wrong, please forgive me."
After playing around, Li Youhu temporarily put on a set of casual clothes sent by the waitress. Hearing that the dinner is ready, he walked to the dining room with Mr. Yu, and said: "A few days ago, he seems to have gone to China."
Teacher Yu suddenly widened her eyes slightly, thinking that the girl next to her was still teasing herself, but seeing her serious expression, she said in disbelief, "How do you know?"
"At the Guofeng Art Troupe, Sancha told me that he has been in Suzhou for the past few days. If we had known, we would not have rushed to France."
Li Youhu said, feeling more and more regretful.
A few days ago, she finished filming "Kangxi Weifu Private Interview", and the next "Love Call Transfer" will not start shooting until the end of the month. Since there is such a gap, she simply rushed to Cannes in advance and planned to play for a while. Teacher Yu also Same, the two have been here in France for more than a week.
I didn't expect to miss it just with the man.
Teacher Yu was also a little regretful, a certain idea couldn't help appearing in his mind, but, out of reserve, he didn't blurt it out.
Li Youhu was not so reserved. When he came to the restaurant, he just sat down and said to Teacher Yu who was sitting opposite: "Shall we go to North America together in a few days?"
Teacher Yu felt guilty: "What are you going to do?"
Li Youhu also became distressed again.
Teacher Yu's question, to be precise, should be 'how to do it'.
They can't come to the door directly. Thinking about the scene, it would be strange if they didn't get beaten out.As for taking the initiative to contact him to seek a meeting, this kind of thing, Li Youhu has hinted more than once in private emails in the past six months, but unfortunately there is no result.Moreover, not only her, but also those girls who are still in the Guofeng Art Troupe, Zhu Momo and their models, and even some other women she knows are basically the same.
