1216 Chapter 1227

It is rumored that the film palace of the Venice International Film Festival will be abandoned in three years. To commemorate this theater, 61 statues of golden lions were erected in front of the film palace at this year's film festival.

The 61 golden lions represent the 1932 highest awards awarded by the film festival since 61. On the base of each golden lion, the name and year of the director who won the golden lion award are marked, including Zhang Yimou "A Lawsuit by Qiu Ju" and "No One Can Be Less", and "Parasite" by Jiang Wen.

Whenever night comes, these golden lions, which are calm during the day, seem to come alive in the colorful and changing lighting effects, making the ancient movie palace look fashionable and dynamic.

time flies.

Soon came September 9th, the day when the closing ceremony of the 10nd Venice International Film Festival was held.

At seven o'clock in the evening, like the opening ceremony, the Venice International Film Festival held a very grand red carpet show.

However, compared with the red carpet show at the opening ceremony, the number of celebrity artists who came to the closing ceremony was much less, especially Tom Cruise, Nicolas Cage, Angelina Jolie, Cameron... Hollywood superstars represented by Diaz and others did not see anyone at the closing ceremony.

However, although the overall starlight was somewhat dim, the media reporters from China were all in high spirits. Sun Hao had just walked down the red carpet, and these people collectively stopped him.

"Director, tell us in advance, what award did the movie "The Piano" win?"

"I want to know too! You don't know, when I received the call from the organizing committee, I fooled around for a long time, but the girl at the front desk of the organizing committee just didn't say anything, and made me so depressed that I wanted to jump into the river!" Sun Hao hurriedly Smiling and waving.

"Ha ha…"

The reporters burst into laughter. The little girl at the front desk of the organizing committee must not be Sun Hao's fan.

"Director, which award do you think our film is most likely to win?"

"Hmm..., I think Best Actor, Best Actress, "The Piano of the Piano" must be a bit difficult.

Because David Strathairn in "Good Night, Good Luck" and Giovanna Mezzogiorno in "The Beast Within" are too strong, I feel that Teacher Xu Jinglei and I can't do them.

As for the others, it should be possible!
If we talk about hope, I hope "The Piano of the Piano" can win the Golden Lion! "Sun Hao, who usually doesn't speak big words, made a very rare one here.

"Director, the awards will be presented soon, how do you feel now?" At this time, another reporter spoke.

Sun Hao tilted his head, pointed to the smile on his face, and said, "Look, I'm almost laughing from ear to ear. The only word I feel right now is ~ great!"

After chatting with the reporters for a while, Sun Hao disappeared at the gate of the movie palace with Zhang Meng, Xu Jinglei, Zhou Tao and other crew members.

……

The movie palace is already full of people, and the screening hall with nearly 2000 people is about to be full now.

After Sun Hao, Zhou Tao, Xu Jinglei and others entered the screening hall, under the guidance of the staff, they found their seats and sat down, waiting for the award ceremony to begin.

Different from the Oscars and Golden Globes, the awards ceremonies of the three major film festivals are relatively simple. It is not a grand party, there is no song and dance performance, and there is no exciting award process. It is more like a simple commendation meeting.

Soon, the lights in the hall became dim, and the lights below the screen and above the stage flickered, and the originally chaotic scene fell silent for a moment, and everyone turned their eyes to the stage.

"Gentlemen and ladies, hello everyone! Thank you for coming to the 62nd Venice Film Festival Awards Ceremony. Tonight, at least seven people will change their destiny..."

In the eyes of everyone's anticipation, the host stepped onto the stage to kick off the awards ceremony.

After the simple opening remarks, the host of the film festival, Mark Muller, took the stage to give a speech, and then officially entered the awarding process.

First of all, the award-winning films of the Horizon unit will be awarded.The Horizon unit is similar to a focus unit of the Cannes Film Festival. Films with good quality but not enough to be shortlisted for the main competition unit will often enter this unit, focusing on new directors and encouraging innovation.

The horizon unit is also divided into awards such as best film, best director, and best actor.

However, not only has Sun Hao not seen the award-winning film, he has never even heard of it. They are all unknown films.

The next one was the Lifetime Achievement Award, and there were two winners, one was the Japanese director Hayao Miyazaki, and the other was the native Italian actress Stephania Sandrelli.

Hayao Miyazaki, a Japanese national treasure, animator, animation producer, cartoonist, animation director, and animation screenwriter, his masterpiece "Spirited Away" was immediately popular throughout Asia when it came out.

Therefore, when Hayao Miyazaki stepped onto the stage, there was no one sitting in the entire hall, and the audience stood up, paying tribute to this master who loves movies to the core with applause!
When I heard Hayao Miyazaki say, I will continue to shoot and create, and I hope that on the day I die, I can stand behind the camera...

When Sun Hao heard the words, his heart trembled. The old man is already 65 years old, and he still maintains a strong desire to create. He shoots an animated film every year. This is the true love of movies.

Immediately afterwards, the award ceremony entered the highlight, and began to award the awards of the main competition unit.In addition to the highest award, the Golden Lion Award, the main competition unit also includes the Jury Award, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Director, Best Artistic Achievement Award, and Best New Actor Award, a total of seven awards.

Dante Ferretti, the chairman of the jury of the main competition unit, stepped onto the stage and gave a brief speech. After that, the other eight judges also stepped onto the stage and sat down on the right side of the stage specially prepared for the nine judges.

The main competition unit is first awarded the Mastroianni Award, which is the Best New Actor Award, named after the greatest Italian actor Mastroianni.The nature is the same as the best newcomer of the Golden Rooster Award and Golden Horse Award, and it is a rather small award.

"Well... Director, do you think I can win this award?"

Zhou Tao, who came to such an important film gathering for the first time, felt extremely disturbed, because she was among the nominees for the Mastroianni Award.

"do not know."

Sun Hao shook his head.

"Director, it's boring." Zhou Tao curled his lips, and then lowered his voice to the lowest level.

"Director, these days, I have been paying attention to the news of the local entertainment media in Italy. Whether it is a professional film and television magazine or some gossip newspapers, they all praised our movie "The Piano" as a flower.

He also said that we cannot ignore Sun Hao's acting skills just because of his achievements in the directing industry. "

While the two were chatting, suddenly, the award presenter Scarlett Johansson on the stage began to announce the result after giving the award speech: "The best new actor award is "The Piano", Zhou Tao!"
