King of Hollywood

ps: I can't really hurt myself with procrastination, it's only been a few days since I got home... it seems impossible to explode... hey...

Once things have been decided, Adrian will do his best, and Sharon is a great place to start. While not many people were present, there were also a number of eminent persons, some journalists, and indoors their voices were louder and more infectious and persuasive.

So, he faked a distracted image from the start, just like Lars? Von Tyre, the brain-watering guy, was there, so he used his words to steer things in the direction he wanted, and let the other side carry the notoriety of the challenge. This arrogant and arrogant guy from Denmark has never been a threat. Adrian confirmed this when he last took Muhlando to the Cannes Film Festival. If you don't mind, this guy was just a package that European filmmakers needed, so he didn't know anything about it.

You know, Adrian's “sympathy for the Nazis” question was just asked out of memory. I didn't expect that guy to actually nod his head and say yes. It turns out that he is a person who is self-centered and never thinks about others, so that's all right. Since he wants to be his stepping stone, of course he should be satisfied.

The sermon seemed a little excessive. In the end, both Shame and Woo came out, but Adrian didn't pay attention to it. On the one hand, the louder the better, and on the other hand, how would Hollywood know he was on their side, and on the other hand, if he wasn't loud, how could he be the spokesperson? And then the crown together? Besides, the speech was well planned. If you want to win the debate, don't try to refute each other. There is no perfect theory in the world, as long as there is enough time. A loophole can always be identified and then attacked, so the purpose of the debate is simply to gain a neutral outlook.

So, after the founding of basic logic - such as Europe's history and former glory - it became a habit for European films to be arrogant and talk to themselves - how to infect their audience. It's very important to get them to empathize, to get them to acknowledge, simply to incite love.

So Adrian repeatedly said he wanted someone to compete with Hollywood. There's a little trick here. Though he did not say so explicitly, everyone knows that Hollywood, even with a strong competitor, remains strong and insurmountable under his leadership, as the achievements of the past decade or so have clearly demonstrated.

In short, he puts himself in a seemingly just position and then accuses European cinematographers of being selfish and cowardly, abandoning the future by immersing themselves in the past despite the fact that they are afraid to face technological developments. Even if it were known that he was suspected of bias, it would be difficult to argue in that situation. Not to mention later.

And Adrian deliberately differentiated, except for Tyre, who let this old man be there that night, mostly against Bertolucci? Another big compliment to some French filmmakers, and a special compliment to Luc? Besson had made a roll-call, and it would be very easy to accept his words as long as people accepted that deliberately created justice.

Of course, the support of the AC media behind it is one of the reasons why Adrian's voice can still be delivered quickly and unimpeded, even if the power in Europe is relatively weak, so why is there such a monster in Hollywood when the European film community is slow to reflect and the American film community is overwhelmed with support?

But after Adrian's airport speech. The European film industry finally reacted, either by reaching an agreement or simply not wanting Adrian to continue provoking them, and they began to make tough criticisms. For example, the miracle director showed a rude side, or "shame and armour”, but came to the Cannes Film Festival with his work, and returned very rudely without waiting for the festival to end, and some British media joined in.

Beyond that, Godard did not know whether his face could be erased or what, and stood up and said a few words, such as “too young” and “mixed with the Jews”, which were then drafted by the media. In short, Adrian, from head to toe, is not worthy of criticism anywhere, as if their previous blow to him had never existed.

Unfortunately, a little late, if Adrian's remarks had just been published in the media, they might have reached a large group of people. But to this day, even many Europeans who don't like miracle directors feel that their criticism is weak and irrational, and the Americans who started out on Adrian's side are naturally laughing.

Then the Cannes Film Festival hosts slapped them again, before they expelled Lars? Von Tyre - There is nothing to say about the Holocaust being politically correct in Europe, and this year marks the sixtieth anniversary of another victory in the Second World War, and he also said sympathy for the Nazis in front of a director who made a film on the subject of the Holocaust. If Cannes let himself go, he would certainly lose his reputation.

European cinematographers can't help it, even if people like Godard, who clearly hate Jews, haven't chewed on it, and the already prepared ac media quickly made it all known, so Tyre is totally screwed. It is simply impossible to be complacent about being expelled like another time and space, and footstones should generally be kicked far away if they are used.

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

That was a tough one, with European films still criticizing Adrian, and Cannes, one of the three biggest film festivals over there, awarding him gold palms. Although the jury issued a statement that they disagreed with every word the miracle director said, it did not upset Pianist, a great movie cloud, and they were right. The Pianist was indeed the top piece, the award was no big deal, and the work and authors should be separated.

But many people still feel * * spicy on their faces, and some film critics even complain privately. If you really want to give it, just the best director or jury prize, why must you give it to Golden Palm?

“It's simple, they're also beginning to commercialize.” Adrian sees clearly.

As we enter the new century, the pressure on the Cannes Film Festival grows, coupled with Hollywood's constant erosion of the European film market. And the local films didn't do any good, and they came up with this regressive thing called the dogma95 declaration - and Adrian's criticism is absolutely right from this point on - and if they don't want to find a way to make new changes, it's only a matter of time before they're eliminated.

Anyway, the political wind is marked by the Berlin Film Festival, with the Venetian Film Festival as a small cost independent film. Then it is appropriate to commercialize Cannes and maintain the position of leader sheep in Europe. So it's no big deal to have a good relationship with the AC media. Besides, Adrian's everywhere shows a fondness for French films, so he became one of the few directors to get gold palms twice.

To be honest, Adrian was also surprised that he had initially anticipated only the best director or jury prize. After all, Golden Palm represents the highest honor in Cannes, and there are very few people who can get it twice, not to mention the fact that he still criticizes European films in Cannes, openly claiming that European films are dead.

Who knows, finally getting gold palm, Gaul chickens like gray animals, the more they get whipped and bounced?

“Anyway, this is a huge honor, getting gold palms twice... someone must feel bad, which brings you closer to your goal, right?” Claude laughed and tweaked.

“Sure.” Adrian shrugged, "But I'm not going to change the next itinerary, and the French 'eyes don't do much good. ”

“So I'm gonna wipe your ass again?” Claude picked the eyebrows.

“I'm sure there won't be such a fool.” Adrian waved, but paused and added: “Of course, it's hard to say if there's a guy with a brain fever. ”

No one is impeccable, and even Adrian's success can silence European cinematographers. Hacker Empire trilogy, Ring King trilogy, any one of them will be enough for a director to benefit for life. But there's also an attackable place, private life, not to mention anything else. Just Cannes and Nicole went back to the hotel with their arms in the air - otherwise he wouldn't necessarily be determined to implement his plan on the salon.

So when Europeans have nothing to say, it's hard to say that they're not going to find a way to get the situation back. Adrian, of course, revealed it through various channels a long time ago, and you have to write some rubbing stories, which is a rule of the game, but you have to overdo it, affect his goals, or get involved with his own children, so leave him alone.

Over the years, entertainment journalists have basically acquiesced to this line, including the Sun. But this time he made such a big scene that he offended most of the filmmakers in Europe, and maybe an unintentional or indulgent guy would come out and catch them, so Claude's warning was still necessary.

“Then it's up to you, Claude, and I'm going to take the final blow as far as I'm concerned.” Adrian said so, then got up and greeted Ivanka out of the office.

Even at this point, it succeeded in creating a rivalry in filmmaking on both sides of the Atlantic, but the whole thing is not over, and there is a small tail. Even if Cannes gave him the gold palm, it wouldn't stop him. Adrian wouldn't let anyone get to him for a long time. That's why Claude was so half-warned and half-joking.

So what is it?

“Welcome to the latest issue of The Allen Show. I'm Allen? De Janeilles, today we have a heavyweight guest, and as for how much weight, look at the most recent paper and you'll see," Alan in front of the camera? De Janius said his opening remarks, “Welcome to our miracle director, Adrian? Cowell! ”

In the music, not officially dressed, Adrian came up from the background dressed casually.

“Hi, Alan, nice to see you.” He was happy to say hello to De Janilus.

“Me too, Ed. Glad you could make it to my show.” The other party made a gesture with a smile.

“Now that you're not nagging, I've never been on your show.” Sit down and Adrian plays funny.

“Oh, of course not. I'm just gonna nag you right now about what gives me a richer contract.” De Janeilles said in a tone.

“Damn, why do you guys always say that on Jon's show, and on your show you say that.” Adrian complained, suddenly causing a laugh.

“Okay. So let's change the subject, you've been really, really popular lately, and at first everybody was surprised that you made a movie about the Holocaust, and then you and Nicole? Kidman came in and out of the hotel, and then suddenly the Europeans hated you from love. Incredibly," De Janeilles went straight to the subject, “what made you say that? A momentary impulse? ”

“I did have some impulse at the time, and I didn't want to talk too much about it. I didn't approve of their stuff, but I didn't want to argue with them. So I've been a little distracted. But then I thought it was really necessary to articulate my attitude clearly, so I simply said all the accumulated words, I don't think there was anything wrong with those words, I might seem a little excited at the scene, but everything I said was a summary of what I had observed over the years.” Adrian spoke while making gestures to strengthen his tone.

“But European directors don't think so, they think that you, as a famous film art…" De Janiles was interrupted by Adrian before he finished.

“No, no, no, no, Alan, no, the art thing has nothing to do with me.” He laughed and said very seriously. “The famous science fiction novelist Robert? Heinlein had a saying that he wrote his novel just to make a little money and drink a little wine. So am I. I'm just telling stories, telling stories that are lovely, hateful, sad, joyful, and making some money. ”

“Ha, this is the first time I've heard of it," Alan revealed an exaggerated divinity. “But you did make and direct a lot of very artistic films, didn't you? ”

“Whatever happened to me, the pearls were there, and I just walked over and picked them up and showed them to you," Adrian shrugged. “As for how to interpret it, it's the audience's own business. ”

“Why would you want to so strongly separate art from film?” De Genius asked the key points.

“No, no, no, no, I didn't want to separate it," Adrian shook his head, "I just think that people now see the word art… too cheap. ”

“Too... cheap?” De Janeilles blinked, and the audience shouted indissolubly low.

“Can you tell me what art should look like to you?” Then she said.

“Sure, but we have to put it in the back, we need to go around a big circle," Adrian laughed, "all current art forms, architecture, painting, novels, theatre, song and dance, at birth, the first attribute is never art, the first attribute is always entertainment! Only when these things meet people's most basic entertainment requirements will it be possible to elevate into art, not just to make a few shapes of wire and throw them into the corner, and wait for some dust on them, they become art! ”

“Look at European films now. What else do they have? As I said in Cannes, apart from women's * *, fragmented clips, directors talking to themselves, what else? Not even the most elementary functions were done, and I was curious as to what would qualify them to wear this crown of art over their heads. ”

“Are you very opposed to women showing their bodies naked in movies?” De Janeilles suddenly asks, with a curious look on his face, "there's basically no such shot in the movie except the Big Eye Ring. ”

“Whether they need to expose their bodies is a matter for directors and actors, but also for their freedom, the key is what effect they want, whether it really shows the beauty of a woman's body or just to provoke the emotions of the audience.” Adrian opens his hand very frankly.

“Oh?” De Janeilles picked the eyebrows, and there was a surprise in the audience.

“There are lots of beautiful pictures of women's bodies in the world, especially black and white, and the beauty that is conveyed is really moving, and the key is that they are static, peaceful, and allow people to see the details fully," Adrian continues, "and in movies, the images are always dynamic, so no matter how they are shot, they bring a teasing smell, and you can't watch them over and over again. So, when these lenses appear on the big screen, is the focus on the beauty of the female body? Or is it that pair... hmm? ”

He didn't say the word, but everyone knew what it was, and De Janeilles laughed instantly, and the audience followed with a loud or ambiguous or awkward murmur.

“This description is really...” De Janeilles, who has always been known for his spicy topic, also couldn't help vomiting his tongue. This talk show is live, this topic is thrown out, so there is basically no possibility of reconciliation with the European group for a long time.

“It's very difficult to show this in front of the camera," Adrian continued with pride, "I'd love to do this, but I never found the right opportunity, and as for" The Open Eyes Ring, "it's not my work. So I'd rather deal with it a little blurry, deal with it half cover-up a little bit, than show it off frankly, because art is not allowed to be blasphemous! ”

“Is this art fundamentalism?” De Janeilles plays with the forehead and asks.
