Hollywood legendary director

On the evening of May 28, the 59th Cannes International Film Festival officially closed.

It was almost 7 o'clock in the afternoon, outside the movie palace, it was much deserted.

Most of the tourists, filmmakers, buyers and sellers have left this seaside town.

After all, there is no platform like Cannes, and staying there is no good.

Of course, Lehmann and the creators of "Old Nowhere" arrived on time to participate in the closing ceremony.

There is no cheer, no large number of reporters, only the red carpet is still paved.

Everyone passed quickly, with expectations, but ushered in a farce.

In other words, among the people, only Lehman had a little psychological preparation, but he was still stunned by the jury's sorrow.

The not-important Fabian Prize was awarded to "Climate" and "Paraguayan Tree Hammock".

The Golden Camera gave "Budapest Island"...

In short, the intention of dividing fruit is too obvious.

Think about it, Palme d’Or was awarded the title of "The Wind Blowing Wheat Wave" directed by Ken Rocky. Although it is controversial, it is actually very small. I wish.

Then, the film "Flandre", which also involves anti-war ideology, won the jury award. Is that a bit outrageous, but the film director Rachid Pochara is French, and it’s geopolitical plus politically correct. Just give it.

Immediately afterwards, the King of Sunglasses gave full play to the principle of "repaying the good fortune" and did not neglect another film predecessor, Pedro Almodovar. The best screenplay this time is also a matter of course, not bad, but the screenplay award Compared to Palme d’Or, it must be of a lower grade. In order to make up for the older generations, the six actresses of "Return" have all won Cannes filming;

And the queen gave six, can there be too few actor?

Ever since, the five male stars of "Glorious Years" won collectively, and they contrasted with the six major actresses.

Among other things, the awarding of such awards, specifically boasting of the performance level of European actors, is obviously impressive-this is called an innocence.

Of course, Lehman also participated in this transaction.

Therefore, the award jury award, second only to Palme d'Or, was accepted by "Old Nowhere". In addition, in return for Lehman's support, Firefly's Mexican director Alessandro won the best director with "Tonten Tower".

Looking at the entire award distribution, between Europe and Hollywood, sharp and political correctness, male power and feminist power, masters and newcomers, etc., the jury led by the King of Sunglasses found a balance, and no one was left behind.

Therefore, this year's Cannes Film Festival ended successfully in such a "multi-win" situation. It has to be said that the Sunglasses King has a good coordination ability. No wonder the film is well shot. Isn't such a happy ending?

Of course, many wins mean many wins, but the media and the masses are angered.

There are countless titles such as "five shadows and six queens" and "shadows", and a lot of artillery fire is concentrated in the awards section.

The organizing committee is also a headache-do you divide the cake? It was so ridiculous that 11 awards for actors were given at once. Isn't this standing and spraying?

After reading the distribution of the awards, public opinion was in an uproar, screaming injustice and shady voices one after another, and the newspapers also became popular and rhythmic.

The public has also gained insights. People who have seen double yolk eggs at the Film Festival have not seen 5 or 6 yolk eggs?

——Your chicken is really competitive.

Anyway, this Cannes Film Festival is a big scandal.

Due to the time difference, when the news reached the United States, it caused another commotion. American newspapers were also willing to read French jokes and took the initiative to report.

All of a sudden, public opinion in these areas was surprisingly unified, and they were all sprayed from various angles.

Questions continue.

In addition, there are a group of people who feel that the failure of "Old Nowhere" to win Palme d'Or is also a shady product.

But Lehman himself didn't care about this statement, but Liam used the storm to portray "Old Nowhere" into an image of a victim, and the popularity increased a lot.

Of course, if you are scolded, the organizing committee will not stand up and make any statement. Is it not common to be scolded at film festivals?

Are there fewer Oscars?

Big brother, don't laugh at second brother, it's just that this time I played in Cannes.

Pay attention to this, if you are too serious, you have already lost.

Therefore, on the day of the closing ceremony, Lehmann received the trophy. In addition to a special collection of favorability, he immediately turned his attention to "Old Nowhere" which is currently being screened.

After the first weekend, "Old Nowhere" is no longer a single-day champion in North America. It was screened for 5 days and ranked second with a total of 59.35 million.

"The Da Vinci Code", ranked third, also gradually ceased to be strong, only getting 57.12 million.

"Outside the Fence", the fourth on the list, received 46.28 million.

......

The 12th horror movie "See No Evil" has a total of 8.79 million weekly.

It is worth mentioning that the global box office of "The Da Vinci Code" has exceeded 350 million. If you remove the production budget and distribution expenses, you can definitely make a lot of money.As for the championship, it was airborne and won by "X-Men 3: The Last Stronghold", which recently joined the battlefield this weekend.

There is no need to question the gold-absorbing ability of the "X-Men" series. It only took three days and the screenings in advance to get 120 million US dollars in the box office and won the first place in the North American film market (May 22 to May 28).

This film is directed by Brett Ratner, who has directed "The Rush Hour". It tells the story of a pharmaceutical company's desire to develop drugs to treat genetic mutations, making the X-Men face a choice.

The addition of such a blockbuster immediately dictated the battle.

For Lehman, of course, I hope that the release schedule of "Old Nowhere" will be a little less stressful, but obviously, this is not under his control, and I can't help others make money.

No way, life has to go on, and the gain of $59.35 million in the first week is not low.

......

In such a hustle and bustle, the bosses of EMI, Gaomeng and Europa suddenly invited Lyman to gather.

Although it was very easy to say on the phone, chatting and so on, it was actually about the promotion of "Old Nowhere" in France.

You know that the talks were in a hurry that day. Liam only came up with a preliminary cooperation agreement. Many things need to be discussed in detail, not to mention that the release of "Untouchable" requires cooperation from several companies. To talk about.

After all, the preparations for "Untouchable" went well, and when Lehman made time, he could shoot.

In other words, if you want these local snakes to contribute, you have to talk about specific benefits. Their control in France is not the top one. If they don't cut their flesh and blood, what can others support?

After all, it's all benefits.

Those in the movie industry cannot do without this.

Since people first opened up the invitation, they were obviously very sincere-"Old Nowhere" and "Untouchable" are both good projects, at least they think so.

Lehman had a headache. If they really took it seriously, it was obviously impossible to cut a little meat. It was probably bleeding.

Alas, the producer is still too weak before the release, whether it is North America or France.

After all, no matter how good a movie is, there is no good schedule and no good cinema resources, and it is also subject to everywhere.

Seeing others take the least risk and take a lot of advantage, it is really unbalanced.

Channels are the king of the four characters, which tells how many industries are sad.

Lehman couldn't help thinking: It can only be tricked, otherwise what else?

The movie is not released?Not for sale?

"Anyway, I can't hide, I have to be slaughtered sooner or later."

After Lehman agreed, he comforted himself that being slaughtered at least has the value of being slaughtered. If there is no benefit, who will take care of you.

Take your time, one day, we can also go to the upper reaches to see the scenery.

Of course, before going to the appointment, Lehman had to meet and chat with the King of Sunglasses.

The so-called transaction, people recite the infamy and get benefits, so they have to deepen their friendship.

Besides, don’t underestimate the Sunglasses King’s network. This product is also popular in Hong Kong and the Mainland. He is also very influential in many mainstream film festivals. For Firefly, he is a good friend.

However, second only to the field of literature and art, the business sector, Ya is also a great hammer.

There are few movies made by Sunglasses King that can make money. His broken film company is also an empty shell, and if he empties his family, he may not have much money.

However, the King of Sunglasses does not lack investment in making movies. A lot of people give him money, provided that the project is reliable...
