Chapter 251
The first movie comes from France.
"Although this director is a newcomer," Zhou Yiyang explained to them, "his teacher is a very famous film master, so his chances of winning an award are not small. He was born orthodox."
Tang Yue on the side had something wrong with her expression. She glanced at Zhou Yiyang, couldn't help but pursed her lips and said:
"Brother Yang,
Isn’t this award-winning movie worthy of being watched? Why does it have anything to do with the director’s background?”
"If it were a movie of the same level, maybe this off-screen factor would be an advantage." Zhou Yiyang smiled: "But this movie is a purely artistic film. If you feel sleepy after watching it, just tell me.
You can fast forward."
"Shouldn't it be necessary?" Lin Xuan'er replied immediately. From her point of view, since it was a popular movie that was shortlisted,
There are definitely merits.
Zhou Yiyang didn't speak anymore, but pressed the play button in front of them.
Half an hour passed, and Zhou Yiyang subconsciously looked back at the performance of the people around him.
However, the result was almost exactly as he imagined.
Except for Su Yin who was still insisting, everyone else was already in a drowsy state.
After Luo Chen noticed Zhou Yiyang looking at him, he almost immediately slapped himself with his hand to wake him up.
Ling Hu yawned, as if he was about to fall asleep on the sofa in the next second.
At this moment, Wang Xingrui had an idea in her mind. Maybe she should record a song instead of sitting here watching a movie that she didn't understand at all.
"Brother Yang," Tang Yue felt that if they continued watching like this, all of them would fall asleep directly, so she said, "What is this movie about?"
"Love," Zhou Yiyang smiled, "but it uses a non-linear narrative method, so it looks very confusing."
"Love?" Lin Xuan'er wanted to give herself a slap in the face. As expected, not everyone can handle literary films. At least she can't do it at all. "Brother Yang, how about we go forward quickly!"
Zhou Yiyang hummed and would only pause when the heroine was performing.
"Her crying scene is great!" Tang Yue said seriously, although she didn't understand why the protagonist cried.
"I think,
The little moves she designed for herself during the crying scene are very good." Su Yin said: "But when she performs, she always gives me a feeling of being too unrestrained and her emotions are too intense."
Zhou Yiyang smiled, then looked at Su Yin with great satisfaction, and then said:
"You can think of this, it's great. Yes, this actress has a background in opera before, so she always has a strong stage play style when she acts in movies. This is also her biggest disadvantage."
"If this year's judges prefer life-oriented performances, then she probably won't even be nominated."
What they were going to watch next was a comedy. To be honest, when Wang Xingrui learned that it was a comedy, she was very surprised:
"Brother Yang, it turns out that comedies can still be shortlisted for film festivals?"
"Of course." Zhou Yiyang said with a smile: "I have never heard of any film festival that has written regulations that do not allow comedy films to participate in the selection."
"But comedies are generally difficult to be shortlisted, right?" Lin Xuan'er said softly: "After all, the judges definitely prefer more in-depth performances."
"If you are referring to the best film, it is indeed possible. But the award for selecting actors is different." Zhou Yiyang said seriously: "I think the actress will be the next one.
He is Su Yin’s biggest rival.”
This is an American comedy film, but it is a British-American co-production, and the heroine is also from England.
"Isn't this Christine? She is so famous!" After Su Yin saw the actress's face, she said
He called out the other party's name immediately.
After all, the other party is indeed an actress who has been famous for a long time, and she already won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress three years ago.
"I also know this person." Ling Hu said, "I have watched her movies on the movie channel before."
"Um,
Christine should be the most internationally renowned among these actresses this year, and has won many honors. It can be said that if she is the Best Actress at Cannes this year, there will be the least opposition from the media."
After Zhou Yiyang finished speaking, he suddenly changed the topic and said with a smile: "But this is the Cannes Film Festival, not a messy awards ceremony. Upsets are the norm."
"However, her attempt to make a comedy film this time is also a breakthrough in itself, so the chance of winning an award is not small."
After Zhou Yiyang finished speaking, he played the movie again.
This is a comedy with a very easy-to-understand plot. It tells the story of an urban white-collar worker who was fired by his boss due to work mistakes. Later, the urban white-collar worker lost hope in life and became a mannequin in a clothing store.
story.
It can be said that this imaginative beginning made people who were about to fall asleep because of the last movie suddenly feel energetic.
The next development of the story is still the same as that of a comedy movie. One day, the young president of the company entered the clothing store. When he saw the model standing alone in the corner, he felt that it looked familiar.
When he got close to the mannequin, there was a sudden earthquake, so the CEO had no choice but to bump into the dummy and kiss her.
The dummy was resurrected, and the urban white-collar worker ran away.
What follows is a cliche story about a CEO chasing his wife and a low-class woman successfully marrying into a wealthy family.
But this kind of plot looks really exciting. The four girls all screamed when they saw the proposal scene at the end.
"Kristine's performance is so good!" Su Yin likes this kind of life-oriented performance. "She completely brings to life an urban white-collar worker who comes from the bottom and is obsessed with work. And she is chased by the CEO.
In the end, the whole change in mentality was also well explained.”
"But..." Su Yin shook her head: "Do you think the plot is too simple? Although the performance has nothing to do with the script, I think the judges will still consider this."
Zhou Yiyang hummed: "Look, almost every actress has their strengths and weaknesses. So do you think you have a good chance of winning the award now?"
Su Yin was silent for a while, seeming to be really thinking about this matter.
"I think there should still be hope." Su Yin laughed: "At least I don't think I'm worse than them."
Zhou Yiyang hummed, of course he did this today to build up Su Yin's confidence.
