1502 Momentum like a rainbow
“Us Weekly, 100 points, "Hall, Hall, Hall. Alfonso Cuaron has given a flawless film, and Renly Hall has once again given a flawless performance. In In the endless space, he is experiencing a grand adventure in which his life collapses, but no one can hear his roars and screams. The layers of emotional catharsis allow people to truly see the peak of the performance..”
“USA Today," 100 percent, "Alfonso Cuarón has done an incredible job creating a cinematic film that's hard to beat, but... all praise must go to Renly Hall. .This young actor uses his delicate and profound, rich and full eyes to give soul to the character and life to the story. Every scene he appears in is amazing. If there are still people who are curious about why he can achieve EGOT, then this is Answer.”
“"Washington Post", 100%, "When the movie was over, every audience member couldn't help but stand up and applaud. This belongs to Alfonso Cuarón, and even more to Renly Hall!" After "The Ballad of Drunken Country", Renly Hall once again gave a soul-stirring performance with clear layers and profound core. His performance is the type that "allows the audience to be completely integrated into the story and unable to extricate themselves". At the end of the movie , Hall's performance is enough to go down in history！”
“Vanity Fair”, 100%, “Homage! All applause and all respect goes to Renly Hall! He succeeded, once again, in accomplishing the impossible, while once again proving that he is one of the best and finest actors of our generation. An incredible performance.！”
In the interview after the premiere, Renly repeatedly emphasized that he hopes everyone can focus on the director, because this is a work that belongs to the director, Alfonso Cuarón’s directorial mark and lens language Given "Gravity" epoch-making significance, every aspect of the other crew can only be regarded as a tool in the hands of the director, including Renly himself.
But Alfonso immediately praised Renly, giving all the credit to the young actor, and even bluntly believed that Renly was one of the greatest actors of our time. At that time, people just took it for granted. It is a routine routine for directors and actors to praise each other and admire each other; now, mainstream comprehensive media have also expressed their approval..
From "The Ballad of Drunkenness" to EGOT and then to "Gravity", this is indeed Renly's year. His comprehensive performance breakthrough has successfully made Renly a hall-level figure..
After EGOT achieved a Grand Slam, there was actually quite a bit of criticism from people outside the industry..
This is a conservation law of nature. When praise reaches its extreme, it will inevitably lead to disgust and resistance, especially when Renly is still so young. Whether it is envy, jealousy, disdain or Qingliu, it cannot be said. What is denied is that people are still more or less bored.
When I see Renly’s news frequently in major media, and all of them are praised, I can’t help but want to ignore or skip it, and even go further and start making malicious speculations, complaints and dissatisfaction. “It’s like Renly Hall is the only actor left in the world”.
Not to mention the general audience, even Renly himself gradually began to feel numb and bored. In the first half of the year, Renly suddenly fell into a period of stagnation, losing enthusiasm and motivation for the performance; in the second half of the year, after Renly made a breakthrough, But I don’t want to be exposed too much in front of the media. Most of the time, I still hope that all eyes can stick to the work..
But...a work is a work, and excellence is excellence. This is indisputable and irresistible..
Just like a competitive sports arena, Usain Bolt dominated the world in his peak period. He won one championship after another. He was invincible. Those jealous and challenging eyes were everywhere. No matter whether people like it or support it, he can win the championship. This is absolute strength. So, the controversy gradually begins to disappear - or it still exists, but no one cares..
The same is true for Renly now.
The brilliance of the EGOT Grand Slam has indeed made people feel tired, but "Drunken Country Folk" in Cannes and "Gravity" in Venice are still undeniable absolute masterpieces, and can even be said to be classics. The depth and breadth of it once again proves Renly's absolute status as the first actor of the new generation, and he is second to none even in the entire Hollywood..
Not convinced? hold back.
“After "Gravity" premiered in Venice, despite the lack of statistics from the official program, you can clearly feel the change in the wind direction when you are in the water city.——
There were overwhelming praises for Alfonso Cuaron, and even more positive words for Renly Hall. Many people expressed their regret that "Gravity" was not able to participate in the main competition unit. , otherwise, the most favorable contender for the Golden Lion Award would have been born. What is even more regrettable is that Renly missed the Best Actor Award..
Before the Venice Film Festival, people were eagerly discussing whether Renly could complete the Grand Slam of Best Actor at the three major European film festivals.？
If possible, he is obviously the youngest actor to achieve such an achievement in film history, and he should also be the actor who completed it in the shortest time in film history - in just two years, on the road to making history, Renly is indeed unparalleled, Smiling proudly with ease.
“After the premiere of "Gravity" ended, a mainstream opinion spread in the streets of Venice: as long as this film participates in the main competition, then the Best Actor Award will be awarded to Renly. , which also means that history is likely to be born in this way.
Unfortunately, there is no if.
Warner Bros.’s insistence and persistence on commercial film strategies is simply outrageous, especially after Kevin Tsujihara took over, the company’s top management is still in chaos and turmoil. There is almost no room for business and discussion, and everything has become simple. To put it bluntly, their promotional plan snuffed out the grand vision of the Venice Film Festival and the possibility of Renly making history..
Although it is only a possibility, maybe "Gravity" enters the main competition and cannot win an award for Renly, but it still makes many filmmakers feel resentful..
On the contrary, Warner Bros. is still complacent. Because of the excellent reputation of "Gravity", we can already look forward to Toronto and New York. After the three film festivals are over, the film will take advantage of the trend to be widely released in North America. , the wishful thinking of promoting the release in this way is really a slap in the face..
Regrets are regrets, production rights and distribution rights are the same thing, and obstacles in cooperation with top companies are always inevitable. "Gravity" is destined to miss the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival, so all media Focus on the awards season that has officially kicked off——
There is no doubt that "Gravity" easily ranks among the first group, and many media now believe that the film won the best picture, best director, best actor, best supporting actress and many other technical awards. All have incomparable and huge advantages, and now they have become the biggest hits of the year..
Not only that, "The Ballad of Drunkenness" has also quietly entered the first group, and the Coen brothers are still very competitive in major awards such as Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Adapted Screenplay. Sony Classic’s academic public relations capabilities are even better than those of Warner Bros., which is also an important bargaining chip.
Now, Renly, who has starred in two works, "The Balladeer" and "Gravity", has naturally become the top seed candidate for Best Actor. Such popularity far exceeds last year's "Transcendence" and the year before that "Love". crazy”.
In the year before last, Renly starred in two highly acclaimed works, "Crazy Love" and "Fighting Cancer". His popularity continued to rise during the awards season, and he finally won the victory in an upset manner; and this year's two movies The works, level and specifications, feedback and comments all easily surpassed the two works from the year before last. Does this mean that Renly will copy the same upward path again?？
Before you know it, the craze of awards season has arrived.
After Rooney Mara left, the "Gravity" crew stayed in Venice for two days, accepted interviews from major mainstream media, and completed the first phase of publicity tasks before leaving..
In fact, Renly still hopes to vacation in Venice for a while. This time, Matthew, Andre, Eaton and other friends also came to Water City. The beautiful memories of those young days came to mind again, which made people happy; but Work is work after all, and Renly had to leave for Toronto to start the next round of promotions..
As for vacation, I can only wait for the next time.
Matthew and others were not in a hurry to leave. Since they had arrived in Venice, they simply took a short vacation to enjoy the late summer sunshine of the Adriatic Sea. In a daze, they seemed to have returned to Venice again. In those carefree years before, I enjoyed the leisure and comfort of rich children, and displayed the vitality and vitality of youth wantonly..
Those are days that will never come back.
At the same time, on the other side of the Atlantic, Toronto has already ushered in the splendor and vastness of autumn early. The maple leaves all over the sky are dyed with different colors, and the whole world has become colorful and magnificent. This is a unique beauty belonging to Canada. The magical journey from summer to autumn makes you slow down..
The warm and hospitable Canadians at Toronto Pearson International Airport welcomed Renly's return with the highest treatment, and more importantly, welcomed the debut of "Gravity", returning to this part of the city after three years. Land, "Renly-Hall" is no longer what it used to be, and the surging crowds have already foreshadowed in advance that the next publicity will be a wonderful journey..
