King of Hollywood

ps: Procrastination ca n’t really hurt. It ’s only been a few days since I came home ... It seems impossible to explode ... hey ...

Once things are decided, Adrian will go all out, and Sharon is also a good place to pick things up. Although there were not many people present, there were also many well-known personalities, and some were journalists, and indoors, their voices could be louder and more contagious and persuasive.

So, at the beginning, he pretended to be absent-minded, just as Russ von Tiel, a guy with a brain in his head, was there, so he used his words to guide things in the direction he wanted, and let the other person Carrying a notoriety for picking things up. This arrogant and arrogant guy from Denmark has never been a threat. Adrian confirmed this after meeting with him last time when he took "Muhland Road" to the Cannes Film Festival. Say you're welcome. This guy is just a package introduced by European filmmakers, so there is no self-knowledge.

You know, Adrian ’s "sympathy for the Nazis" question was only asked casually because of his memory. I did n’t expect that guy actually nodded and agreed. It can be seen that he is self-centered and never considers others. People, so that preaching was right. Now that he wants to be his stepping stone, of course he should be satisfied.

The preaching seemed excessive, and in the end he was ashamed and acquainted, but Adrian didn't take it seriously. On the one hand, the bigger the trouble, the better. How can Hollywood know that he is on their side if he doesn't trouble, and how can he become a spokesman if he doesn't. Then take control and be crowned king together? Besides, this preaching is also carefully planned. If you want to win the debate, don't think about refuting each other. There is no perfect theory in the world, as long as there is enough time. You can always find loopholes and attack them, so the purpose of the debate is only to win over neutral people.

So, after establishing the basic logic—such as the history of Europe and its former glory, the habit of arrogance and self-talk in European cinema—how to infect the onlookers. It is very important to resonate with them and make them recognize, in short, sensational.

As a result, Adrian has repeatedly stated that he wants someone to compete with Hollywood. Here's another trick. Although he didn't say it explicitly, everyone knows that even with strong competitors, Hollywood is still strong and insurmountable under his leadership. The achievements of the past ten years have clearly proved this.

In short, he put himself in a seemingly fair position, and then accused European filmmakers of being selfish and cowardly, ignoring the overall situation and daring to face the development of technology, immersed in the past and gave up the future. Even if he was suspected of being partial, it would be difficult to argue in that situation. Not to mention later.

And Adrian also deliberately differentiated, except for Tyre, who mainly targeted Betolucci, who let the old man be there that night? He also praised some French filmmakers and gave a special name to Luc Besson. As long as people accept this intentionally created justice, it will be very easy to accept his speech.

of course. The support of the media is also one of the reasons. Even if the power in Europe is relatively weak, Adrian's voice can still be quickly and unhindered. Therefore, the European film circle has slow response and the American film circle has one-sided support. Why is there such a monster in Hollywood?

But after a speech at Adrian's airport. The European film industry finally reacted, or reached an agreement or just didn't want Adrian to continue provocative, they began to make tough criticism. For example, the director of Miracles fully showed the rudeness, or some "shyness and courage" still took his work to the Cannes Film Festival, and he was very rude before returning to the film festival, and some British media also joined among them.

In addition, Godal didn't know if it was because his face could not be wiped out, and he stood up and said a few words such as "Too young" and "Mixed with the Jews", and then was reported by the media. Make a fuss. All in all, Adrian has nothing to deserve criticism from head to toe, as if they had not touted him before.

It is a pity that if Adrian's remarks were just published in the media, they would be like this, and it might draw a large number of people. But now, even many Europeans who do n’t like the words of Miracle Director, they feel that their criticism is weak and unreasonable, and the Americans who stood on the side of Adrian from the beginning are naturally ridiculous. Already.

Then the organizers of the Cannes Film Festival gave them a slap in the face. Before that, they had expelled Russ von Tier-nothing to say. The Holocaust was politically correct in Europe, and it was World War II again this year. On the 60th anniversary of victory, he actually said sympathy for the Nazis in front of a director who had made a movie based on the Holocaust. If Cannes let it go, its reputation would have plummeted.

European filmmakers have no choice but to say nothing, even Godal, who clearly expresses aversion to Jews, and the well-prepared media quickly made it known to everyone, so Tyre thoroughly Ruined. If you want to be evicted like another time and space, you are proud of yourself. That is simply impossible. The stepping stones are generally used and should be kicked away.

But then, four days after Adrian left Cannes, at the awards ceremony, the judges handed Golden Palm to "The Pianist" in his absence!

This one is really harsh. European filmmakers are still criticizing Adrian, while Cannes, one of the three major film festivals, has awarded Golden Palm to his work. Although the jury issued a statement that they did not agree with every word that the miracle director said, they would not be angry with "The Pianist". This is a great movie, and they are right. "The Pianist" is indeed It is a top-notch work. That award is not a big deal. The work and the author should be separated.

But many people still feel hot on their faces, and some film critics even complain privately. If you really want to give it, the best director or jury award will do. Why do you have to give Golden Palm?

"It's simple, they're starting to commercialize it, too." Adrian saw it clearly.

Entering the new century, the pressure on the Cannes Film Festival is getting heavier, and Hollywood continues to erode the European film market. And local films have not improved, and they have come up with such retrogressive things as the gma95 declaration-from this point, Adrian's criticism is correct-if they don't want to find new ways to change, they will be eliminated sooner or later. Things.

Anyway, the political direction is marked by the Berlin Film Festival, and the small-cost independent films are the Venice Film Festival. Then Cannes is more commercialized, and it is also appropriate to maintain its leading position in Europe. Therefore, it is not a big deal to have a good relationship with the media. Besides, Adrian has revealed his good feelings for French movies everywhere, so he has become one of the few directors who won the Golden Palm twice.

To be honest, Adrian was also surprised, and he initially expected only the best director or jury award. After all, Golden Palm represents the highest honor of Cannes, and few people can get it twice, not to mention he also criticized European cinema in Cannes, and declared that European cinema is dead.

Who knows that in the end they got the golden palm, and the Gaul chicken was like a gray farm animal.

"Anyway, this is a huge honour, winning the Golden Palm twice ... Surely someone feels bad, which brings you closer to your goal, doesn't it?" Claude laughed ridiculously.

"Indeed." Adrian shrugged. "But I won't change the next itinerary. The French winks are not very useful."

"So I'm going to wipe your **** again?" Crowder raised an eyebrow.

"I'm sure there won't be such a stupid person," Adrian waved, but added a sentence after a pause: "Of course, it's hard to say if there is a guy with a hot head."

No one is impeccable, even if Adrian's achievements can overwhelm European filmmakers. The trilogy of "The Matrix" and the trilogy of "The Lord of the Rings", just taking one out is enough for a director to benefit for life. But there is one area that can be attacked, that is, private life, and nothing else. It was a riot in Cannes and Nicole back to the hotel just arm in arm-if not, he might not be determined to implement his plan at the salon.

So when the Europeans have nothing to say, it is difficult to say that they will not find a way to turn things around in this regard. Of course, Adrian has revealed through various channels long ago. It is okay to write some reports. This is the rule of the game, but it ’s too much to affect his goals or involve himself. Boy, leave him alone.

Over the years, entertainment reporters have basically defaulted on this line, including a large number of paparazzi including the Sun. But this time he was so powerful that he offended most of the filmmakers in Europe. Maybe an unintentional or indulgent guy would come out to catch these noises, so Claude's reminder is still necessary. .

"Then I'll leave it to you, Crow. I'm going to make my final blow right now," Adrian said, then got up and said Ivanka left the office.

Even at this point, the conflict between the two sides of the Atlantic in filmmaking has been successfully created, but the whole thing is still not over, and there is still a small tail. Even if Cannes gave him the Golden Palm, he couldn't stop it. The long-term plan would be realized. Adrian would not let anyone stand in the way, so Claude was so half-warning and half-joking.

So what exactly is it?

"Welcome everyone to watch the latest edition of the" Allen Show ". My name is Alan DeGeneres. Today we have invited a heavyweight guest. As for how many, look at the latest newspapers to know "Alan DeGeneres in front of the camera said easily," Welcome our marvel director, Adrian Cowell ,! "

Adrian, dressed casually in the music, dressed up casually and walked up from the backstage.

"Hi Ellen, it's nice to meet you." He greeted DeGeneres happily.

"Me too, Ed. I'm glad you can come to my show." The other person smiled and gestured please.

"Now you won't be stingy again, I have never been on your show." Adrian joked after sitting down.

"Oh. Of course not. I'll just talk about you now and give me a more generous contract." DeGeneres quipped.

"Hell, why are you always like this? I'm talking about this on Jon's show and this on your show." Adrian complained, causing a sudden laugh.

"Okay. So let's change the subject. Recently, you really got a lot of attention. At first, everyone was surprised that you made a movie about the Second World War, and then you went in and out with Nicole Kidman. Then the Europeans suddenly turned from love to hate for you. 138 Reading Net is incredible, "DeGeneres went straight to the subject," What made you say that? Impulsive? "

"I was really impulsive at the time. I didn't want to talk too much. I didn't agree with them, but I was not good at arguing with them. So I was always a little absent. The accumulated words were all spoken out. I don't think there is anything wrong with these words. I may seem a little excited at the scene, but everything said is what I have observed and summarized over the years. "Adrian Speaking while making gestures to strengthen his tone.

"But European directors don't think so, they think, as a famous film art ..." Dejanelles was interrupted by Adrian before he finished.

"No no no, Allen, wrong, art has nothing to do with me," he said with a grin, but seriously. "The famous science fiction writer Robert Heinlein has a saying that he wrote his novels just to make a little money and a little wine. So is I. I'm just telling stories. People hate moving stories that make people sad and happy, and make some money by the way. "

"Ha, this is the first time I've heard that," Allen exaggerated. "But you do make and direct many very artistic films, don't you?"

"The pearls are there no matter what I do. I just walked over and picked them up to show you," Adrian shrugged indifferently. "As for how to interpret it, it's the audience's own business."

"Why would you want to separate art from film so strongly?" DeGeneres asked the point.

"No, no, no, I didn't want to separate them," Adrian said, shaking his head. "I just think that people now use the word art ... it seems too cheap."

"Too ... cheesy?" DeGeneres blinked, and the audience whispered inexplicably.

"Can you tell me what art should look like in your eyes?" She said immediately.

"Of course, but we have to put it behind. We need to go around a big circle," Adrian laughed. "All current art forms, such as architecture, painting, novels, theater, song and dance, and even movies, An attribute is never art, and the first attribute is always entertainment! Only when these things meet the most basic entertainment requirements of people, can it be sublimated into art, not to say that latte wire has made several shapes and thrown them into the corner. , Wait for them to become dusty, they will become art! "

"Look at the current European films. What else do they have? As I said in Cannes, what else is there besides women's, fragmented clips, and the director's self-talk? Not even the most basic functions, I'm curious what made them eligible to put the crown of art on their heads. "

"Are you opposed to women's nakedness in the movie?" Dejanelles asked suddenly, with a curious look. "In the movies you make, there are basically no such shots except" Open Your Eyes ". ,. "

"Whether you need to expose your body is a matter for directors and actors. It is also their freedom. The key is what effect they want, whether it is to truly show the beauty of the female body, or just to tease the emotions of the audience." Adrian Open hands very frankly.

"Oh?" DeGeneres raised an eyebrow, and a surprised voice came from the audience.

"There are a lot of photos in this world that show the beauty of women's bodies, especially black and white photos. The beauty that is conveyed is really moving. The key is that they are static and peaceful, allowing people to fully observe the details." Adrian continued, "And in movies, the images are always dynamic, so no matter how you shoot ~ www.readwn.com ~, it will have a provocative taste, and you ca n’t watch it again and again. Then, when these When the lens appeared on the big screen, was people's attention focused on the beauty of the female body? Or was it the pair ... huh? "

He didn't say that word, but everyone knew what it was, and DeGeneres sneered immediately, followed by a cluttered or ambiguous or awkward laugh in the audience.

"This description of you is really ..." DeGeneres, who has always been famous for the hot topic, couldn't help but spit out his tongue. This talk show was live, and this topic was thrown out, so basically with the Europeans There will be no reconciliation for a long time.

"It's very difficult to show this in front of the camera," Adrian continued calmly. "I really want to do this, but I still can't find a suitable opportunity. As for" Opening Eyes ", that's not me Therefore, I prefer to deal with it a little bit, and deal with it a little bit, rather than show it hastily, because art does not allow profanity! "

"Is this art fundamentalism?" Asked DeGeneres jokingly.

"Of course not," Adrian shrugged. "I just want to emphasize the nobility and preciousness of art, just like I emphasized that I'm just telling a story."
