1317 humorous
“Hey, this is Cannes, I'm not the star, you are.”
Renly's simple words successfully won a response from the press conference hall. Applause, laughter and whistles rang out one after another..
For most of the emerging self-media who have followed suit and come to join in the fun, they seem to understand but not fully understand the humor in Renly's words. The laughter in the entire hall makes them feel particularly lonely. Only a handful of well-established professional bloggers can join the French and laugh out loud.
In Cannes, in France, the director is always the protagonist, and the phrase "film is the director's art" is vividly reflected in this land. When people mention a movie, the director is the absolute core; even if it is No matter how big-name or top-notch actors are, they are all accessories to the director's works..
For example, "Drunk Country Ballads"”.
People will say, "That Coen Brothers movie was great" instead of "That Renly Hall movie was great”.
The same situation continued in Berlin and Venice, so that Toronto, Telluride, Sundance, etc. slowly inherited a similar tradition, but they still carried out more evolution and expansion, even if it is mentioned "That Renly Hall", that's no problem either.
But this is Cannes.
Therefore, Renly is not the protagonist, the Coen brothers are. Only those who are truly familiar with the three major European film festivals can understand.
Joel and Renly turned to look at Ethan.
Ethan didn't decline, "I think it's a very interesting question. In fact, after wrapping the filming of 'True Grit,' Joel and I were ready to take some time off. In more than two years, we both I couldn't find more precise inspiration until last year's Grammy Awards..”
Ethan raised his hand to signal Joel, "As Joel just said, we were really moved by Renly's performance. I don't know if you have listened to the song called 'Beast', and that 'Don Quixote' album, through the performance, you can feel the soul power hidden behind the songs, telling stories about dreams and life..”
“The reason why I find this question interesting is that it is a story with not many possibilities. Imagine now in 2011..." Ethan turned to Renly to confirm the release date of "Don Quixote", "How many people are willing to sit down and make a really good album that no one listens to, telling a story about a loser with unrealistic dreams? How many people are willing to calm down and listen to this album?？”
“Movies, too.”
The entire press conference hall fell into complete silence, and everyone's eyes were focused on Ethan..
Ethan adjusted his glasses frames and continued, "Joel and I are undoubtedly very lucky. Now we can find support if we want to shoot any subject. Even if it is a boring story with not many possibilities, there are people who are willing to believe in us. .But for those struggling independent filmmakers, it is simply unimaginable..”
“Among them, there are many talented and young and energetic creators, but now they are tightly suppressed by the impatience, urgency and roughness of the entire industry. It is very likely that they will eventually have to give up their favorite career. At the Grammys During the performance, Renly sang:——
’So grass/your dream, how dare you forget our scars, I will become a beast for you, if you pay enough money, everything will not count, few dreams can be remembered.’”
Ethan read the lyrics in vernacular, looked at Renly again, and said with a smile, "Are the lyrics correct?？”
Renly nodded in recognition with a smile..
Ethan also chuckled, "So, Joel and I created this story. We know that this is a very, very unpopular story. We hope to present the beauty and touchingness of the 1960s, and at the same time, we also hope to present the The difficulties and anguish of dreamers. This is a story that belongs to both dreamers and artists..”
“In Cannes, the audience liked this movie. I think this is not our fault, but Renly's. He made everyone listen to the melody of "Don Quixote" and also made everyone listen to Llewyn David. Si's voice." At the end of the topic, Ethan once again gave Renly his praise, sincerely.
Renly, who once again became the center of attention, spread his hands and said, "I guess it's my turn again?" The slightly raised tail tone revealed a playful teasing, which successfully made everyone's mouths curl up with slight smiles. radian.
“I always think that this is not my credit. I just told the story of a lone traveler on the road of dreams." Renly took the topic easily, "I once had the same idea as you. I think, no People miss artistic creation, and no one cares about chasing dreams. I am just a loner..”
“But obviously, I was wrong." Renly said with a smile, "The voice of 'Don Quixote' was heard, and the voice of LeVeon Davis was also heard. So, believe me, when I learn that you When I like this work, I believe that the ones who are really happy are not the members of our crew, but the dreamers who are still struggling in the darkness..”
“Please, even losers like LeVine never give up, you should have more hope." After some very meaningful words, Renly changed the subject, and then became relaxed and excited, a little The joke made everyone burst out laughing..
Then a reporter stood up, but his English was obviously not very good. He awkwardly described his problem, but his thick accent made everyone present confused..
Renly took the initiative to extend a friendly hand, "You can use French." The other person's accent sounded like he was from southern France..
Ethan looked at Justin inexplicably, and then Justin leaned over and said, "Renly can speak multiple languages fluently, and he showed it before in Berlin..”
“I never knew you were paying so much attention to me secretly." Renly's voice came over calmly, and then Justin showed an exaggerated expression of astonishment, which made everyone in the scene burst into laughter..
The reporter finally became comfortable. After waiting for the laughter to subside, he asked in French, "Renly, what was the most difficult part when filming this work? Compared with singing and acting, which part is better?" More difficult? Finally, we are very curious, do you have any plans for the next album?？”
“Haha." Renly laughed happily and answered in standard French, "I can answer the last one first: No. Sorry, I am not a competent singer. However, the soundtrack of 'The Ballad of Drunken Country' has been completed. I'm not sure about the recording..." Renly paused, turned to look at Joel and Ethan, and switched to English, "When will our original soundtrack be released?？”
“Sales were officially opened on the day of the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival, but I heard that the sales didn't seem to be very good." Joel said seriously..
“I'm not surprised." Renly also nodded solemnly in response. Amidst the chuckles, he turned to look at the reporter who asked the question, "I think if you are interested, you can watch this movie again. 's soundtrack.”
The entire press conference hall immediately began to buzz with excitement. Emily and Mark's first reaction was to exchange looks with each other, and then they discovered that the excitement in their eyes was so similar..
In fact, last night, countless media reporters were complaining that they now miss the music of "Drunken Country Ballads" so much, but they can't go back to the movie to listen to it immediately..
Unexpectedly, the original soundtrack has been released in advance, silently！
Renly did not notice the excitement of the reporters, and then answered the question, "In the process of filming the work, the most difficult thing is actually the acting. The melody and lyrics of every piece of music have their origins. In a sense, It is part of Llewyn, so during the performance, I need to enter the current situation and be fully involved. From singing to acting, this is an all-round test.”
“Please be sure not to believe Renly." Justin interrupted without warning, and then seeing the stunned expressions of reporters in the audience, he pointed at Renly, "He was showing modesty just now, right?？”
Because Renly's subsequent answers were all in French, Justin could only guess..
“I mean, Renly is just a natural singer, and in the process of performing, he gave Llewyn a completely different soul. No, no, no, don't look at me, this is not my understanding, this is Kerry's To be honest, I don’t know anything about acting.” Justin is a live treasure, full of ridicule between laughing and cursing..
All eyes turned to Kerry. She also had a look of helplessness on her face, "Didn't I agree that I would take a day off today?" That complaining tone instantly made everyone burst into laughter..
“Interested viewers can pay attention to a song in the movie, 'Waving Goodbye.'" Carrey also opened up the conversation, "On the first day we entered the crew, we were discussing the characters, as well as related melodies and tracks, Blue Li used this song as a demonstration to show the layered changes brought about by LeVine's changes in mood. Joel and Ethan also expressed their approval, so this song became a highlight throughout the entire movie..”
As Justin and Kerry both spoke, the questions that followed became more diverse..
The next question is about Carey Mulligan.
Kerry also deliberately complained, "Hey, it's all you guys, look what you got me into." The teasing tone caused laughter again, and then she replied, "I must admit, Len Leonardo and Renly are two completely different actors, with many differences in their collaboration methods, acting methods, etc..”
The question just now is one of the most noteworthy focuses of this year’s Cannes Film Festival.：
Carrey, who also starred in two works of "The Great Gatsby" and "The Balladeer", has collaborated with two actors, Leonardo and Renly. So, how does it feel?？
