tearjerker director

Chapter 581 The scenery here is different
The Venice International Film Festival, although its influence is getting weaker and weaker because of its adherence to the niche, literary style, but for Huaguo.

Always one of the top three film festivals in Europe!

In terms of influence, in fact, it's just not as lively as the Cannes Film Festival, and it's basically the same as the Cannes Film Festival.

And this year, so many Chinese films have been shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice International Film Festival, so many Chinese film fans have chosen Venice as a tourist and vacation destination early on in this season.

The Venice International Film Festival, as in previous years, is still held on Lido Island.

Lido Island is the second largest island after the main island of Venice. It is a veritable rich area, with commercial streets, entertainment venues, tourist facilities and so on.

Even if the Venice Film Festival is not as influential as before, let alone Cannes, at this time of year, you can still see crowds of reporters, editors, fashion bloggers, movie fans and tourists.

Li Yi actually came quite early. Of course, he had never been to Venice, and the movie had already finished anyway, so he brought Xu Nannan here ahead of time.

I have to say that the scenery of Lido Island is really different from other places.

As we all know, the Venetian Film Festival is held on Lido Island, but many people do not know that this slender island is an internationally recognized health resort, and this island is the first choice for many retired people!

When Li Yi and Xu Nannan came here, the most intuitive and deepest impression was that there were so many old men and old ladies here.In the streets, in the restaurants, on the bus, on the beach... You can always see old people who are staggering, but they can make you abandon the adjectives "old and slow" in an instant, and turn to them. Fashionable, clean and tidy attire!
Most of the old men here wear leather shoes and leather shoes or casual suits with a casual hat or beach shorts and sunglasses. Old ladies wear a skirt with a small bag and a cane, or a casual and elegant dress with sandals or a bikini. God is full.No matter what kind of outfit you wear, you can see the word "careful". This is something very new to Li Yi and Xu Nannan.

However, as the film festival approached, Li Yi and Xu Nannan could only temporarily stop their interest in playing.

Although Li Yi has no special obsession about winning the award or not, since he has come here, he naturally hopes to win the award.

What's more, it's the movie "Paradise Cinema"!
As the opening film, "Paradise Cinema" has naturally attracted much attention, and it is also one of Venice's official key promotion films.

However, compared with Cannes and Hollywood, the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival does look a bit bleak.

The festival officially opens.The home court is at the Film Palace, and the jury must be the first to make an appearance!
Then there are celebrities from all over the world, half of them are businessmen and half of them are artisans. The red carpet is naturally indispensable, but the red carpet is only more than 30 meters long, which still makes people feel a little LOW.

But this does not prevent female stars from all over the world from competing for beauty.

At nine o'clock, in the main hall of the movie palace, "Paradise Cinema" will be screened soon.

As the opening film, there are naturally many people who pay attention.

In addition to guests and media related personnel, there are also a large number of audiences.

Amid applause, the main creators sat in the front row of the crew.

The movie is about to start!
In the cinema hall, three domestic directors who were shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival this year came.

In fact, it can be said that Li Yi and the group of domestic literary film directors are not compatible.

But in the past two years, Li Yi has directly entered the literary and artistic film circle, and even more exaggeratedly won awards, the box office also made them feel jealous.

And this year, for Feng Jiaqi, Li Tianyi or Wang Xiao, they are all very depressed.

Of course, even so, they are all Chinese filmmakers after all, so it's reasonable for them to come to support, and at the same time, there is another point, that is, this is the opening film.

However, they are also extremely curious about Li Yi's film, which is favored by Italian directors like Berto Manning.

In fact, not only them, but also many of Li Yi's competitors at this year's Venice Film Festival were also present.

For them, they have known the news of "Paradise Cinema" for a long time, and they all know that this is their biggest competitor for this year's award.

Similarly, there are a lot of media from home and abroad, not to mention the domestic media reporters, there are a lot of them this year, let’s just talk about the foreign media, there are also a lot of them, after all, Li Yi is really good in the international arena now Not Nobody.

After all, he has also won the awards and the box office of the movie. It is difficult for people to ignore him.

Then there's the fans.

Many movie fans came from China, including Liu Fei and Chen Jingning. After all, those who can come to the Venice Film Festival are not rich or expensive, but at least they are wealthy. During the film festival, the prices and expenses are really not ordinary people. can afford it.

In fact, many domestic movie fans are no strangers to this movie. After all, Li Yi has been on the headlines so many times!
But as to what kind of story this movie tells, I'm confused.

The introduction of "Paradise Cinema" is simple and outrageous, which is similar to what Li Yi said in an interview before: it tells the story of a little boy who grew up in a village in the small town of Cefalu in Sicily, Italy. Stories about growth, first love, movies, friendship, and dreams!
Why didn't you say it!

Those present who knew about the movie were actually quite curious about the movie.

Because Berto Manning's evaluation of this movie was too high, and the movie hadn't even been made yet.

There are even rumors that the reason why Berto Manning became the chairman of the jury of the Venice Film Festival this year is to promote this movie. Of course, this statement is a bit nonsense, but "Paradise Cinema" is indeed excavated by Berto Manning. There is no doubt that it came out to the Venice Film Festival!
The lights on the ceiling were turned off one after another, the originally noisy auditorium became quiet instantly, and the big screen was lit up.

"Directed by Li Yi!"

There are three subtitles in Chinese, Italian and English.

For domestic movie fans, this is full of feelings!

As for the directors from China, they all couldn't help curling their lips. This shit, he still doesn't stop when he's abroad, and he still pretends to be like this.

Of course, it is more sour. After all, such a prefix is ​​really not something that ordinary directors dare to use in every movie.

As domestic directors, they have a deeper understanding of what the six characters of director Li Yi's works mean.

However, this is always a film festival for literary and artistic films, and they want to see, Li Yi, if they can also enjoy literary and artistic films!
