Start acting today

Chapter 482 The whole world owes an apology

The applause lasted for a full minute and a half.

It is conceivable that all of you here are film and television practitioners, colleagues in another sense, who are willing to applaud for so long.

The 75th Cannes Film Festival!

The 94th Venice Film Festival!
The 79th Berlin Film Festival!

These three major European film festivals will be engraved in film history and become special existences in the rhythm of being held every year.

Surrounded by applause, Huang Baiyou stepped onto the stage. The applause gradually stopped until he held the trophy and stood in front of the podium.

"The director Jeanne Yvin once asked me a question," Huang Baiyou said, "Do I feel depressed when performing and think that a certain gentleman is more suitable for the role than myself?"

As soon as these words came out, many of the actors present had moved expressions. Even internationally famous actors such as Simon and Sam appeared at a loss.

More importantly, it was Standing Huang who said the "problem", which made people have to think quietly.

But we can also hear Huang Baiyou’s sincerity from it.

"It's too difficult to perfect a character. I have to use my best to complete it nine times out of ten." Huang Bai said, "If I really think about it quietly, I will definitely doubt myself whether Arthur would be more suitable to be replaced by someone else."

I suspect you are showing off, but there is no evidence, Simon and others thought in their hearts.

"I was silent for a long time and could not give the director an answer." Huang Baiyou said, "Because I have never thought about this problem. I have never thought that if I think that my acting skills are so good, there will definitely be no problem. I will be busy when I get the role. To perfect the character.”

"Including Grace, who plays Sophie, and Saji Chen, who plays Penny, the two ladies have also made corresponding complaints. Mr. Standing, do you owe them an apology?" Jeanne said.

"Sometimes you know?" Jeanne said, "Mr. Standing, your acting skills are so good that it is a burden to the crew. For example, the mental state of Arthur you performed seemed too problematic, so our crew had to hire a psychologist. Consultant."

Looking at the history of the film festival for decades, there are only a few films that are exceptions to this kind of venom. Of course, The Joker is not among them.

Why was she chuckling? They all thought that Jeanne was joking to compliment the actor's acting skills.

"Then I thought, actors' self-feeling is almost our pursuit of perfection. Since it is unavoidable, then we should turn doubt into the motivation to pursue perfection." Huang Baiyou said the core words of his acceptance speech, "I hope my The performance can be more perfect and can go further!”

Look at this, as the opening movie, I have all seen "Joker", who else is more suitable for Arthur? !

The audience chuckled.

Jeanne was still a little disappointed, but her emotions dissipated. The best actor and best director, "Joker" was also the big winner tonight.

How can I listen as carefully as I do now?

Unexpectedly, Jeanne continued, "The smiles of gentlemen and ladies are telling me that this incident seems to you to be just an April Fool's Day joke, but it is a pity that it really happened. During the filming, there were seven special guest actors signed by the crew. Give feedback to the assistant director and hope to invite a psychological counselor to intervene.”

"The winner of the Best Director at the 79th Berlin International Film Festival is director Jeanne Iven for "Joker". Congratulations to Ms. Iven." The award presenter announced the winner in a measured tone.

If you change someone else, the same effect will be completely opposite. For example, if it were Sam, Simon would think, "It's just good luck that I won the Best Actor Award. What are you talking about? Are you qualified to teach me how to act?"

It's simply going against the grain.

Nima, you are already like this and still want to go further?

"Thank you to my mother for your support, and thank you to the jury for awarding this award to me." Jeanne said, "Mr. Standing mentioned me in his acceptance speech just now, so let me also say something about Standing. thing……"

Huang Baiyou stepped down and continued with the awards ceremony.

"Joker" is the opening film, and it has not escaped the "opening ceremony curse". Often opening films have no chance of winning the grand prize, either Best Director or the Jury Prize.

The live camera moved everyone's attention to the seats of the clown crew. Huang Baiyou was startled, and then apologized to Saji Chen and Grace next to him.

If the actors in the same crew are uncomfortable because of their own acting skills, then it is indeed their own problem.

The smiles on the scene were gone because this incident was actually true. When interviewing the staff of the Joker crew about this kind of thing, you can ask whether it is true or not. There is no need to lie. Everyone present knew this and felt that it was outrageous!
It’s outrageous that Nima Bi gave birth to two sets of twins, and it’s outrageous to have one more!
But what happened to Standing was somewhat reasonable...

Solomon couldn't help but say, "Then if Mr. Standing is given a terrifying villain, wouldn't it be world-leading?"

"Isn't this the case with the Dark Knight and the Joker?" Someone next to him answered.

"He is proud of the world... The gold content of the role of Arthur the Clown is already proud of the world." Someone else added.

Jeanne left the stage, and the host Gunther returned to the stage to join in the show.

The atmosphere in the venue was very tense, as if the weight of the air had been superimposed several times.

Don't tell me, the award ceremony is quite reasonably designed. Below is the Outstanding Artistic Contribution Award, which is actually directly equivalent to the Best Photography Award. Most of the time, it is awarded to photographers.

This year's Outstanding Artistic Contribution Award was awarded to an Australian photographer whose film "Arrival" tells the story of the arrival of more than a dozen alien spacecraft, and countries around the world trying their best to communicate with aliens.

The story is so-so, but the shooting style actually has the style of an ink painting. When Huang Baiyou saw it before, he was a little curious and thought it was a Chinese photographer. He really never thought he was an Australian.

"It feels boring. For the first time, I'm not looking forward to the Golden Bear Award. It's like I've entered sage mode and I can't get excited when I meet the goddess again."

"Peter? Or Solomon, or George?"

""Joker" has withdrawn from the competition, who will the Golden Bear go home with?" and so on whispered.

All the major crew members are quite restless.

There are only three awards left: the Lifetime Honor Award, the Jury Prize and the Golden Bear. It is unknown which actor the Lifetime Achievement Award will be awarded to this year.

The actors awarded this award can be divided into two categories. One category is older world-class actors. For them, this honor is just the icing on the cake.

The other type is to provide help in times of need. There are many young actors who are not well-known, but they made contributions to the film industry when they were young. After receiving this honor, their net worth will rise a lot in their later years.

Solomon, Peter, and George looked calm, but who could actually be calm in front of the three major European powers?
"The scene today is too big, so let's not waste time and just look at the work that won the jury award today -"

The presenter is an internationally renowned producer who is in his 60s and 70s. He said it was faster, but in reality he was still trying to keep people entertained, which is in line with his public influence. The older he gets, the more childish he becomes.

He deliberately watched and watched, delayed for about half a minute, and announced, "The winner of the Jury Prize at the 79th Berlin International Film Festival is director Georges Bokut for his work "The Empty Room in the Labyrinth." We congratulate Director Paku.”

Well, Solomon and Peter breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately became nervous. So who is the final winner, "Prison Cake" or "Persian"?
The group drama in the first one was very good, but the subject matter of the second one is dominant!

There is a saying that second place is the biggest loser. George is quite happy. Winning second place is better than getting nothing at all.

Here comes the final result.

"The film uses psychedelic and suspenseful techniques to tell a group portrait story that is like friendship and like love. The whole film is suspenseful, but it also shines with the brilliance of humanity. "Prison Cake" is a sumptuous meal. Let us Congratulations to Director Solomon," after the naughty old producer finished reading, applause also broke out.

But this result is something that many people did not expect. "Persian" is a movie about World War II and a concentration camp. This kind of theme is the most popular at the Berlin Film Festival. The result is that there is no harvest, which is so strange!

To be honest, Solomon was a little surprised. He stood up...

"This year's Berlin Film Festival has withstood the pressure." Huang Baiyou lamented.

Incredibly, the Berlin Film Festival ended successfully.

Newspapers, news agencies, Internet portals, and social software. The most mentioned thing is that Huang Baiyou will become a Grand Slam Best Actor at the three major European film festivals!

"Repeated role? Standing Huang shattered doubts, and Arthur the clown became a classic in film history!" - "Bild"

"After entering the 21st century, there has never been an actor who has been nominated three times and won the Best Actor three times." - "Le Monde"

"Everyone owes Huang Baiyou an apology tonight!" - "Southern Metropolis Daily"
