1373 The heart has its end
“You chose to believe him without hesitation. Why?？”
Bradley's question itself was not profound or difficult, but it cleverly captured the rhythm of the conversation and raised the most curious questions in the past period.：
Why Damien Chazelle?？
“I like this question." In fact, Renly didn't mind such speculation and questioning, because every one of his works has gone through this process, and those opposing voices are often the driving force for continued artistic creation, but, The way many reporters ask questions is full of condescension and aggression, and they jump to conclusions before getting the answers, which is unpleasant. Bradley's way of asking questions is not.
After Renly expressed his affirmation, he answered, "In the mature film industry, every link needs to be matched with the corresponding props and chess pieces, and then it can be told to run. This is a good thing. Those with experience and A well-established director or actor can always contribute more exciting works, but a mature industry will also welcome more different possibilities and open its arms towards the future..”
“You mean independent films? "Bradley cut to the chase..
“Yes and no." Renly said with a smile, "What I mean is to give more opportunities to those novel ideas and breakthrough ideas. Mainstream labels are hesitant to take risks, so now it is always independent films that try. If the mainstream The label is also willing to make bold attempts, and I definitely welcome it with both hands and feet..”
Then, Renly continued, "It's not complicated for me to choose Damien's work. He was able to find sponsors for this work and shot a short film. In the short film, you can capture his inspiration With sparks, this is very, very special. It is very rare for film creation. I still hope to try more different possibilities..”
“Does that mean you might be more involved in independent filmmaking in the future? The Coen brothers have said before that they hope you will participate in the Sundance Film Festival and support the independent film industry." Bradley keenly captured another hot topic..
Renly nodded gently to express his appreciation, "I am very willing to participate in it. This is an area of artistic creation other than performance. If given the opportunity, I would also be willing to participate in the production of the work. Even if I cannot provide ideas and creativity, At least it can provide some help with organization.”
Renly's tone was brisk whenever he mentioned topics he was interested in..
“Is that why you became the producer of 'Crack Drummer'?？”
“It can be said that such an excellent work has never been able to find investment and sponsorship. If you can help, I will be very happy to lend a hand..”
Renly gave the answer without any hesitation, and Bradley was slightly stunned..
Ever since Renly was confirmed as the producer of "Explosive Drummer", various speculations have emerged. Many people believe that this is a sign that Renly has entered the power class, and there will be more moves in the future; but now it sounds like Renly The intention and purpose of Li are extremely simple. Those so-called plans are completely random speculations by industry insiders and news media..
But after thinking about it, Bradley chuckled in relief and continued his interview, "Does that mean that in the future, you will invest more in the production of independent films, and commercial films will still not be the main choice.？”
“No, no, no. I have always been open to all options without setting any limitations or frameworks. I just hope that the script and characters will be more interesting..." Before Renly could finish his words, for the first time Bradley interrupted him and said first, "Really?"？”
Renly turned his head, not understanding Bradley's question, and motioned for him to explain further..
Bradley didn't pause, and then said, "The roles you have always played have always had some tragic overtones, and they seem to be more or less confined to the frame, as if in order to get rid of the constraints of appearance, You consciously cast more breakout roles, just like Leonardo DiCaprio ended up with 'Titanic,' but instead fell into another rut that many audiences are now waiting for, You can star in some works that are relatively... in line with your appearance.”
Renly was already ready to make fun of him, but after hearing these words, he immediately became interested, "What is a work that fits the appearance? Give me an example.？”
“Well, 'Gone with the Wind', 'Jade League', 'James Bond', 'Iron Man', 'Twilight'." Bradley said, but his eyes were always observing Renly's expression.
He thought that with the work he mentioned, the more obvious the popularity of fans would be, the more confused Renly would be. However, he did not expect that Renly would always maintain a light expression, which made Bradley feel slightly embarrassed. He raised his hands to express surrender, "Okay, okay, the last one is just random talk..”
Renly chuckled and waved his hands to show that he didn't mind, "I probably know what you mean. But my answer has not changed. I am willing to open up possibilities and try different possibilities. Comedy is always something I am very happy to try. A genre, romance or horror are also interesting choices.”
The answer was so simple and quick that Bradley showed disbelief in his eyes, and Renly chuckled more cheerfully, "Next question.”
Regarding the topic of work selection, there have been too many discussions over and over again. Renly needs to repeat it with the official answer every time. There is no point in saying more now. When he encounters the right work, what should happen will happen. Got it.
Bradley was still a little unwilling to give up, "Last year you won the title of the sexiest man in the world. Are you sure you are not going to star in some works that are more in line with your image?"？”
“I always believe that the charm of an actor is hidden in the role. Brad Pitt's most impressive role is in 'Fight Club', not 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith'." Renly did not answer directly, but with a Simple and intuitive examples were used to make analogies, and Brad was even mentioned by his real name..
Brad Pitt, who was far away in Hollywood, was shot inexplicably.
Bradley couldn't help but laugh. He could tell that Renly didn't want to dwell on this issue anymore, so he changed the subject..
“Which EGOT is the most unforgettable?？”
“Always hope to be next.”
“I thought your answer wouldn't be so cliche and boring.”
“I thought your question wouldn't be so corny and boring.”
Bradley was speechless, and in the end he could only shake his head helplessly, "You know I'm not Jay Leno, right? I still need to ask official questions, otherwise my manuscript will be very difficult..”
“Grammy." Renly stopped talking and gave the answer simply. Then he saw Bradley's astonishment on his face. Renly continued to explain, "It's because I didn't expect it that I was impressed. .Honestly, to this day, I still can’t believe that I won a Grammy. It’s all so incredible..”
Bradley understood immediately, because Renly has always defined himself as an actor, never a singer. Emmy Awards, Oscars and Tony Awards are all awards for actors. Even if they are unexpected, they will still be their professional fields after all. , but not the Grammys. "So, if you have the chance, would you like to win another award?"？”
Renly did not speak immediately, but gave a meaningful look. This is indeed a good question. Although it is cliché, it points to the true desire of the heart. The question is whether the answerer is willing to be honest..
Renly would like, "Grammy.”
“Why? ” Bradley blurted out in surprise, he thought it was an Oscar or even a Tony Award.
Renly shrugged and didn't answer. Because that was Heather Cross's dream..
Bradley didn't know why, but he had some vague ideas. He shut his mouth wisely, "So what's next? What other awards do you hope to win? I mean, you haven't won it yet. , or, based on the current situation, winning the award for the second time.”
“......Oscar." After saying that, Renly couldn't help but laugh. He spread his hands and complained to himself, "Look, I still care. There is no way to be completely detached..”
Bradley was even more curious, "I thought it would be Venice.".”
Because Renly is still short of a Venice Best Actor to achieve the global Best Actor Grand Slam. This will be another history, and it is also a feat that countless actors have been pursuing throughout their lives. Compared with EGOT, Best Actor and Best Actor The post-Grand Slam is more practical and possible for actors. Every successful actor will more or less expect to win the Best Actor Grand Slam..
The most representative actor currently active on the big screen is Sean Penn. In three years from 1996 to 1998, he completed the Best Actor Grand Slam at the three major European film festivals, and subsequently won the Best Actor Award in 2003 and 2008. He won two Oscars this year, completing his global Best Actor Grand Slam..
But compared to Julianne Moore, Sean’s Grand Slam still lacks a British Academy Award..
The so-called Grand Slam refers to seven trophies from the three major European film festivals, Oscars and Golden Globes, British Academy Awards, and Screen Actors Guild Awards. Julianne is the only actress in the world to have completed a Grand Slam. Such The feat was accomplished in 2014 with "Still Alice" and truly made history..
By the way, Daniel Day-Lewis has won the Oscar three times, which is unprecedented, but he has not won anything at the three major European film festivals. The British actor is obviously not actively striving to complete his Grand Slam feat. In 2017, he filmed "Phantom of the Clothes" "After that, Daniel announced his retirement. No one can know whether this is temporary or permanent, but there is no doubt that this actor's greatness no longer needs to be proven by awards..
As Renly said, trophies are just embellishments and additions, and the work itself will always be famous in history. This is true of Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick, and Charlie Chaplin..
When faced with Bradley's question, Renly did not choose the awards he lacked - the Venice, Golden Globe, and Screen Actors Guild Awards were all temporarily unavailable. Instead, he chose the Oscar, which he had made history for. It really surprised Bradley.
