1589 Reflect the heat wave
What is certain is that "Drunken Country Ballad" and "Gravity" are two completely different types of works. The latter can create box office miracles in North America, but the former is destined to fail to reach such heights. The craze at midnight and spot screenings Just proves this：
“"The Ballad of Drunken Country" sparked an upsurge of discussion among senior professional movie fans, and became the favorite of countless literary youths and folk lovers. The authoritative magazines "Village Voice" and "The New Yorker" located in Greenwich Village even included Screening night is considered a more grand end-of-year party than Halloween; however, this work may not win the love and support of the general audience in the broad market.
Despite this, the popularity of the screenings is still far beyond imagination. You don’t need to compare it with commercial works, you can still clearly feel this by just comparing it horizontally with artistic works! Just talking about the fact that tickets are sold out at midnight venues is the only one in 2013！
Just like the name "Songs of the Bad", "drunk folk songs" are becoming a feast for losers and artists to celebrate, indulge and sing themselves..
For screening works, word-of-mouth and feedback are undoubtedly the top priority, and "The Ballad of Drunken Country" is no exception. Everyone is curious and looking forward to: Is the praise from the Cannes Film Festival worthy of its name? How does it compare to "gravity"? And how does it compare to the Coen brothers' "No Country for Old Men"?？
With much anticipation, the media comprehensive review was released first！
Ninety-six points.

A five-point top work; at the same time, this is also the third work this year to receive such a high level of comprehensive media reviews.！
A wave of praise! An unquestionable wave of praise！
So far, the annual media review champion is still "Gravity" with a score of 99, and no one can shake it; while the second place is "12 Years a Slave" with a score of 96 Now, the third work has appeared. "The Ballad of Drunken Country" shines in an expected but surprising way, strongly announcing that the pattern of the awards season has changed again..
Everyone is looking forward to the outbreak of "Drunk Country Folk", and the good reviews in Cannes are definitely not just words; but when the media review actually completed the statistics, the exclamations and cheers were still endless..
“This is not a story about success, but a story about persistence. The Coen brothers raised their glasses and guitars to pay tribute to the hardships that lead to great art..”
“He is not a genius, and he is not perfect, but he is still walking on the road of artistic creation. He is lonely, but he is not. I pay tribute to the nameless losers who have achieved the pinnacle of art, and also pay tribute to those who are dreaming. Losers who never give up on the road. Finally, a tribute to the Coen brothers and Renly Hall.”
“This is a movie that belongs to Renly Hall. He is quietly on the stage, playing the guitar and singing softly, showing his fragility and scars, singing about his difficulties and sadness, carefully hiding it Facing his own loneliness and desolation, he was like an angel who had restrained his wings, walking alone in the dark and damp alleys. Renly Hall dedicated a character that transcended the character itself..”
“Sweet and bitter, humorous and sad. In addition, there is...Renly Hall.”
“This is undoubtedly the most poetic, beautiful, sad and touching film in 2013. The Coen brothers have once again accomplished such a feat; at the same time, this is undoubtedly the most delicate, profound, beautiful and bitter in 2013. Performance, Renly Hall once again created the peak of his career! best of the year！”
……
Full marks. Full marks. Still full marks..
After "Gravity", "Drunken Country Folk" once again ushered in an enthusiastic craze with perfect scores..
Now, people finally understand why on the stages of the Cannes and Venice International Film Festivals, film critics and reporters from all over the world were so excited and excited, giving them the highest praise? At the same time, people finally understood why after the Venice Film Festival, everyone was lamenting the absence of the film from the main competition and regretting that they were witnessing the moment of history.？
Because "The Ballad of Drunken Country" is a classic masterpiece that can be compared with "Gravity", and the type, style and attributes are all completely different, achieving the glory of the pinnacle in every aspect; and because Renly's role in the two works The performance can truly be called "the pinnacle", once again proving that EGOT's name is definitely not a result of luck, but its absolute strength is impressive.！
With the release of "The Ballad of Drunken Country", the discussion topic about "Which of Renly's performances in the two works is better?" has begun to arouse.
There are people who like "Drunk Country Ballads" and there are people who support "Gravity". It's really hard to choose..
Many senior film critics and reporters have also been asked about this topic. Bradley Adams, a reporter from the New York Times, posted a long article on his personal social network account and gave his answer..
“Personally, I agree with The Hollywood Reporter's Michael Phillips. 'Gravity' is the best show of the year, and 'The Balladeer' is the show you can't let go of..
From multiple perspectives including technical aspects, ideological aftertaste, character stories and plot enhancement, Renly gave a performance worthy of being recorded in the annals of history in "Gravity". His performances in many scenes can be repeated over and over again. Slowly pondering, the shock and baptism will gradually deepen layer by layer. This skill is unrivaled in this year's big screen performances..
But I will still choose 'Drunk Country Ballads'’.
Half a year has passed since the Cannes Film Festival, but now I can still remember the eyes of LeVeon Davis again. He told a story of abandonment and persistence, which is about art and dreams. It’s also about life. Chew it carefully, and those emotions will still leave a slight bitterness on the tip of your tongue, lingering and lifelike..
That's the weight of an era.
Thank you Renly Hall. I am still willing to give him a standing ovation in the theater.”
“The shock of "Gravity", the aftertaste of "Drunk Country Folk", two wonderful works, and two unforgettable characters. After EGOT, Renly continued his efforts and truly dedicated his career to masterpieces, which are worthy of being recorded in history. 's masterpiece. When he first achieved EGOT, Renly once said this: Time will eventually remember his works, and now he has left his own special imprint on the long history of history, in the form of his works..
In terms of comprehensive media reviews, "The Ballad of Drunken Country" has achieved results that are not inferior to "Gravity", and Rotten Tomatoes has also received a wave of positive reviews..
Ninety-five percent freshness! Mass media rating 8.8！
The data is clear at a glance, and it can be clearly noticed that the reviews of the mass media are not as enthusiastic and crazy as the professional media. The freshness of Rotten Tomatoes still achieved incredible praise, but the score is inferior. In the full score system, Regrettably, it was not able to reach nine points. Faced with the media review of ninety-six points, it is indeed a big difference..
This also means that "The Ballad of Drunken Country" is indeed a literary and artistic work that is more petty-bourgeois, more niche, more professional and more unique. The overall preferences of the mass media and professional media remain the same, but there are obvious differences in the degree of preference. Such ratings also will be further reflected in the film market.
Despite this, "The Ballad of Hometown" has received unquestionable positive reviews, and has slightly set a new career high for the Coen Brothers on Rotten Tomatoes - the previous score for "No Country for Old Men" was 93 percent. For freshness, the popular media rated it at 8.7 points. Now both data have improved slightly..
IMDB, which reflects the attitudes of senior movie fans, shows a slightly different picture. The current rating of "No Country for Old Men" is fixed at 8.1, but because there are not enough people to rate it, it has not been able to enter the list of 250 masterpieces; There is a clear difference between the positive and negative reviews of "The Ballad of Drunken Country". It currently stands at 7.8 points, which is obviously not as good as "No Country for Old Men".”.
For senior movie fans, those who like it can't put it down. From music to performance, from story to era, everything is fascinating and can't help but indulge in it. People who don't like it have a mediocre reputation, and their attitudes and opinions are surprising. remained consistent, “I can feel that this is an excellent work, but it cannot impress me..”
“"No Country for Old Men" tells a black crime western story, which reflects the absurdity and sadness of reality, and can be appreciated without being emotionally involved; while "The Ballad of Drunken Country" is a relatively private dream story, which can only be appreciated by those who have truly experienced the ups and downs. Only the souls of , sadness and bitterness can empathize with it. Once they are unable to immerse themselves in it, the appeal and shock will be greatly weakened..
This can be considered to be the difference between professional media and mass media; it can also be considered to be the difference in the attitudes of IMDB viewers..
Of course, such analysis is a relatively objective comparison and measurement, but if we just focus on the work "Drunken Country Ballad", then from media reviews to Rotten Tomatoes to IMDB, this work has undoubtedly received a lot of praise. Especially those who have truly understood the story of LeVeon Davis and are unable to extricate themselves..
After its official debut in New York screenings, "The Ballad of Drunkenness" soared to the sky, winning unanimous praise for its outstanding strength and solid quality. It is not inferior to "Gravity", which once again proved that Cannes From the perspective of the film festival, the high expectations for more than half a year have not been disappointed after all.！
Against the background of the hot attention, excellent word-of-mouth spread with an explosive response, escorting "Drunk Country Folk".
