From the Olivier Award to the Best Actor at Cannes, two trophies in a short period of time have definitely brought Renly back to the public eye again..

After "Transcendence", Renly once again gave a top performance without feeling the influence of any "curse" in any sense. There is no so-called "Little Golden Man Curse", no so-called "EGOT bottleneck", and no so-called "The shackles of age", step by step, we have been extremely solid and determined, and gradually we have our own place in the world's film industry..

Although "The Ballad of Drunkenness" has not yet been fully released, and although the reputation of "Gravity" is not yet known, a Cannes Best Actor trophy has basically set the tone. Regardless of the final box office revenue and award prospects of the work, Renly has truly Get rid of all the influence of the curse and officially establish the brand effect of "Renly-Hall".

Unbelievable??

This is true, but if you calm down and truly follow Renly along the way, you will give the answer deep in your heart: all of this will happen naturally..

Renly's era has just reached its climax.!

……

With the awarding of the Best Actor award, tonight's awards ceremony has officially entered the second half.

The best director was not the Coen brothers, nor Abdai Kesich, nor even Paolo Sorrentino. To everyone's surprise, it was Alexander Payne of "Nebraska". First real upset of the night.

It's not that "Nebraska" is not good, but all the praise for this work is focused on veteran actor Bruce Dern. In terms of Best Actor award predictions, he is the only one An actor who could stand up to Renly.

This afternoon, after the recall list was leaked, almost everyone believed that "Nebraska" would win the Best Actor title, while "The Balladeer" might compete with "Adele's Life" for the Palme d'Or. This is a the right balance.

Later, due to the unexpected disruption of "The Beautiful City", people began to speculate whether the best actor and the best actress might work together to create a double-yolk situation to prevent the two works that created the highest score in the history of the show from becoming cannon fodder..

But now, there is no double yolk between the best actor and best actress. Instead, Alexander Payne defeated many opponents and won his first heavyweight director trophy..

1992After directing his first film in 2016, Alexander made his debut in the third film "School" after polishing and settling in two films, winning awards and praise from the entire North American independent film industry. Today, this work remains one of the most important works in the independent field.

After that, Alexander was out of control. Three consecutive works, "About Schmidt", "Sideways", and "The Descendants", all received unanimous high praise, and two of them won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay; but compared to his directing skills, his screenwriting skills have received more recognition.

Now, Alexander Payne, together with Noah Baumbach, Wes Anderson, Charlie Kaufman, etc., is called the new generation of East Coast screenwriters who hope to inherit Woody Allen's mantle and become a director. Shine your talents in the two positions of screenwriter and screenwriter.

Today, Alexander was awarded the Best Director Award. This is definitely a surprise!

What’s even more surprising is the distribution of the seven awards. There are still two trophies, the Palme d’Or and the Grand Prix of the Jury, that have not been awarded, and there are three cast members whose names have not been called yet, including “The Life of Adele” and “Hurley.” ” and “ Beautiful city”.

In this case, the most likely scenario is that the Jury Prize will be tied with a double yolk, and another work will win the Palme d'Or..

The question is, who is the cannon fodder??

If "Adele's Life" and "Hurley" tied for the jury award, you can imagine the storm after the award ceremony on your knees; but even if "Hurley" and "The Beautiful City" tied for second place , this is still not a happy result, because these two works defeated "Drunk Country Ballads", which cannot be explained.!

No matter what, when "Nebraska" won the Best Director Award, the entire media center fell into despair, there was no sound at all, and some people even started to curse and turned away, that kind of anger, disappointment, The emotions of annoyance, frustration and irritability all surged up in one head.

Emily is no exception.

Compared with "Hurley" and "Beautiful City", "Drunken Country Ballad" is the one that should win the award. It is not an exaggeration to even compete for the Palme d'Or, but now... the world is falling apart..

Just now she was cheering and celebrating that Renly won the Best Actor at Cannes, and now she was furious because the jury dismissed the "drunken folk ballad" so perfunctorily. Emily suddenly lost interest, couldn't help but look away, and took out her hand. I took out my phone and started browsing. I didn't dare to watch the live broadcast on the big screen. I was so nervous that my stomach started to curl up..

The Lumière Hall and the media center were filled with the sound of restlessness, anxiety and tension quietly spread, and Steven Spielberg stood up again.

Although she agreed not to watch it, Emily couldn't help but secretly glanced at the big screen, and then she saw Christian Mongiu coming out as the award guest, and her shoulders drooped low again.——

Cristian is a Romanian director from Eastern Europe. Does this mean that the chances of Amat-Escalante, the director of the Mexican film "Héli", winning the Grand Jury Prize are increasing? What about the other one with double yolk? French or Italian??

“The winner of the Jury Prize at the 66th Cannes Film Festival is……”

Before making a rational judgment, his ears still quietly stretched, and the game on the phone screen was still flashing, but his attention had completely left and he didn't pay attention at all..

“‘'Drunk Country Ballad', USA.”

What?

who?

Who won the Jury Prize??

Emily subconsciously raised her head and looked at the TV screen in disbelief. Then she saw the name "Drunk Country Folk" appeared on the screen. The entire media center fell into a brief state of shock and daze. Immediately, unimaginable cheers and screams erupted, and everyone in sight was jumping, hugging, and roaring..

“"Drunken Country Ballad"? It's actually "Drunken Country Ballad"”?

After Best Actor, "The Ballad of Drunken Country" actually won the second-place Jury Prize again? This is not a double yolk, but buy one and get one free, which clearly shows the love and support of the jury. They even asked Gilles Jacob for permission before finally making such a choice.!

best actor!

Jury Prize!

“"Drunken Country Folk" continued the unanimous praise and affirmation in the official program and won two important trophies at the awards ceremony, achieving a win-win situation! From actors to directors, everyone received recognition! Surprise! Unexpected surprise! A huge surprise ! This is definitely the most beautiful and touching moment tonight.!

Emily did not scream, but picked up her phone and quickly edited the message, trying to publish such a major surprise on the social network platform as soon as possible to share the joy and happiness with all the viewers, but her hands were controlling It was shaking constantly, and even my thumbs couldn't control the screen stably..

Before she realized it, tears had already fallen down. Emily bit her lower lip tightly to prevent herself from crying, but the hot tears continued to fall down, and the feeling of emotion surged through her chest. , completely unable to make a sound; and then he couldn't help but raise his head and laugh, his emotions of happiness and happiness were spreading wantonly, like thousands of butterflies fluttering their wings at the same time..

Crying and laughing like a madman.

I edited a short tweet more than a dozen times because my hands were shaking so much that I accidentally typed out garbled characters. I finally finished editing it, but I still couldn’t send it out. This made me sad. Emily also laughed happily, tried again several times with perseverance, and finally completed the update..

Then, Emily stood up and joined everyone in cheering and celebrating..

Tonight, everything is complete!

There is no tie for the double yolk. "The Ballad of the Lost City" alone won the Jury Prize, and Renly won the Best Actor alone. This is the best award. Although it missed the Palme d'Or, "The Ballad of the Lost Country" still received what it deserved. Definitely, a perfect ending at the Cannes Film Festival! That's enough.

Obviously, the Coen brothers did not expect such a situation. They walked onto the stage in surprise and astonishment, and even cast their eyes towards where Steven and the other judges were. After receiving confirmation, they showed bright faces. Smiling, they took over their trophy from Christian's hand and once again continued their strong performance at the Cannes Film Festival, stepping onto the award-winning stage for the fourth time..

Standing in front of the microphone, Joel took the initiative to give up his position to Ethan, who delivered the acceptance speech..

Ethan did not refuse, "Thank you everyone. Regarding this movie, everything we want to say has been left in the film. I believe that every audience can find their own answers. I think this work has been from In the preparation stage, I was anxious and worried that no one would like it; but when I came to Cannes, I was recognized and received countless supports. This is the biggest reward for movies and art..”

“Here, I need to formally thank Renly Hall. Thank you for his willingness to join this work. Even when he was extremely tired, he still gave a wonderful performance. Without Renly Hall, there would be no LeVine. -Davis, there would be no such work as you see now.”

“Until now, I still occasionally have the illusion that LeVine Davis really exists; or that he does exist. Maybe the folk wave has ended, but the wave of movies is still there. Ongoing. Missed the wave of the sixties, but luckily we live in the present, thank God!”
