1682 Unrivaled
“I can't wait any longer. It's really cold outside..”
Without thinking carefully at all, he hurriedly said a word, and Joel opened the door and entered the cafe in a hurry. As expected, it was Joel's usual style. Ethan, who was still standing in the same place, had long been used to it, and he could only feel helpless at this time. He shook his head and followed closely into the cafe..
jingling jingling.
The wind chimes at the door rang softly, and the cold air and snowflakes stirred up a small whirlwind. The sound of the wind chimes stirred up a biting coldness. Then, as the door was closed again, the outside was blocked, and the heating in the room was blocked. Suddenly, a mist of water appeared on the lenses of Joel and Ethan, and the whole world fell into a lemon-yellow haze..
Joel skillfully took off his glasses and wiped the lenses with the corner of his shirt, and his vision became clear again; while Ethan walked to the buffet next to him, found a tissue, carefully wiped the lenses clean, and looked around , and then took steps towards the location of Joel and Renly..
“So, has it been made public now? "Joel stood proudly next to the coffee table, with his hands folded in front of him. He looked like a bodyguard in black. However, the cheerful expression on his face and the slovenly hair on his head, but He didn’t seem so professional, “Today’s young people are indeed different..”
Faced with Joel's teasing and joking, Renly and Rooney were not shy and reserved. They raised their heads to meet the gaze in a graceful manner, without the expected embarrassment or embarrassment..
Rooney put on a serious study expression, "I thought you and Frances were used to this kind of lifestyle..”
Frances McDormand, the wife of Joel Coen, became a couple because of the Coen brothers' debut film "Blood Labyrinth". They got married in 1984. This relationship lasted for nearly twenty years and lasted for a long time. New; later, the Coen brothers tailor-made "Fargo" for Francis, which also helped the latter win the Oscar for Best Actress. In 2017, Francis won the Oscar for Best Actress with "Three Billboards" "Won the second Best Actress Award for her superb performance.
Joel and Francis usually keep a low profile, but when they occasionally appear in public, they will not be coy, but will appear in front of everyone. They will not deliberately show affection, nor will they deliberately dodge the camera. Naturally The unpretentious attitude is a breath of fresh air in Hollywood..
Joel's eyes suddenly lit up, "Comparing me and Francis? The relationship between you has developed to this point.？”
She originally thought that Rooney would be embarrassed, but unexpectedly, Rooney showed a shallow smile and said, "If not, what we just did would be inappropriate, right?"？”
Joel didn't panic and nodded seriously, "I don't think it's appropriate either. In public places, you still have to consider other single people. You didn't consider the thoughts of other viewers at all..”
At this time, Ethan had already walked over. Renly and Ethan exchanged a look and said hello. Then Renly said to Joel, "I thought there were no paparazzi in Park City; now it seems, I'm still too young. I still have a lot to learn in Hollywood..”
The subtext is that Joel is equal to the paparazzi？
With a simple sentence, Qiao suddenly stopped. He raised his right hand and pointed it at the empty space with depression and helplessness, "You actually treat me as a paparazzi. It's really heartless. We are worried about you, okay? If you are Others take photos and upload them to social networking platforms, and for a while, the disturbing news is enough to give you a headache..”
“It's just you, not us." Ethan added insult to injury beside him, "Renly and Rooney are both smart people and act appropriately, so why worry about them? I think you are indeed very paparazzi sometimes.”
Seeing Joel's dumbfounded look, the three of them chuckled softly..
Joel shook his head repeatedly to express his protest, but did not continue to dwell on such an issue. His eyes quickly moved back and forth between Renly and Rooney for a moment, and then he sat down next to Renly..
Joel, who usually seems to be a big talker, still shows his carefulness in certain details. This style can also be found in his works - obviously, he has always been sloppy and casual, and is not suitable for sitting down. Beside a lady; Ethan, an elegant gentleman, is a better choice.
Ethan immediately cast a questioning look at Rooney, gestured politely, and after getting Rooney's permission, he sat down next to her..
“How's it going, is everything okay in Park City? "Because of the teasing just now, they skipped the greetings. Only now did Ethan have the opportunity to express his concern, "I also mentioned to Robert before that maybe we shouldn't be too pressing this year. You need more time to rest and adjust. , anyway, Sundance is always here. If you miss this year, there will be next year. We know that you care about independent films, and this is enough..”
First, Paul Walker's accident, then the long filming of "Interstellar", coupled with the negative public opinion that aroused during this year's awards season, Renly has always been at the forefront of the storm, exhausted physically and mentally. Under such circumstances, no matter what, Whether it was Robert Redford or the Coen brothers, neither of them put further pressure on Renly, but were prepared for Renly's absence..
You don’t need too many greetings, you can feel the deep concern in the conversation.
“I'm fine, and everything is fine in Park City." Renly answered simply and clearly, "Even the snowstorm here is fine." Sensing the doubtful looks in Ethan and Joel's eyes, Renly added, " Because of the snowstorm, the paparazzi had no chance to come here. Only professional media reporters made a special trip here. This is a good thing..”
Joel laughed happily, and even couldn't help but move his hands. Then he realized that this was a coffee shop, and he had to turn around and apologize to the other customers around him..
Looking back, Joel rubbed his cheeks to calm down his bright smile, "Where's Christopher? I know his work habits. The most annoying thing is to have his rhythm interrupted by accident, whether it's filming or performing. It's very annoying. I've heard before that he even banned the use of mobile phones on the set. Now in Hollywood, he is probably the only director who doesn't have a mobile phone. Even Robert has changed to a smart phone..”
“Ha, it seems that the whole of Hollywood has a grudge against Chris, not just the movie company." Renly laughed heartily, because without a mobile phone, Christopher's contact and communication became very difficult. If Christopher lived in a remote town or even As a "natural human being" in the deep mountains and old forests, there is no problem; but Christopher is a top director in Hollywood, which can easily cause all kinds of inconveniences..
“But... don't worry. The crew has officially finished filming, and Chris can now concentrate on post-production, so there are no complaints or complaints..”
“The post-production filming of "Interstellar" went much smoother than expected. Renly's outstanding performance became the backbone of the entire crew. In less than three weeks, all filming was completed. Originally, the scene was the heaviest and the most difficult. stage, but the shooting process is the smoothest and fastest.
As Renly said, the entire production team of "Interstellar" is now involved in intensive post-production.
Originally, Warner Bros. hoped that this work could catch up with this year's summer schedule, but now it seems that the schedule is no longer suitable. After internal discussions and adjustments, if nothing unexpected happens, "Interstellar" will be released on the Thanksgiving schedule. Looking forward to it. In order to set off a box office storm during the holiday season, especially "Gravity", everyone at Warner Bros. also has great expectations..
“Huh, this is good news." Joel wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead playfully, "Does this mean that you can stay here longer at Sundance this year?？”
“This is my plan." Renly nodded in affirmation. If he can contribute to independent film and artistic creation, Renly will naturally be willing to do so; not to mention, this can also assist Renly's grand plan. He There is no reason to refuse.
Joel immediately started gearing up, rocking his body back and forth to express his excitement and expectations..
A smile also appeared on Ethan's face, "There are still three days until the premiere of 'Blast Drummer', and now the entire Park City can't wait to start discussing this work. Robert also told reporters yesterday that in Sundance It seems that we have never seen such a scene in the history of Sri Lanka. The number of moviegoers this year has reached a record high, which is really enviable..”
Now in the entire North American market, in terms of popularity and popularity, Renly is the well-deserved top deal, even Marvel's bright stars are slightly inferior; and the Sundance Film Festival, as a holy place for independent films, is even more so..
Without too much publicity and exaggeration, just to use the name "Renly-Hall", Sundance officials stated that Renly will not only attend with his new work "Explosion Drummer", but also participate in the works of the Coen brothers. Retrospective exhibition, personally host one of the screenings for one day, and have close communication with the audience.
That's enough.
So far, the Sundance Film Festival has just started for three days, and the number of moviegoers during the same period has already reached a record high, and it is nearly 30% higher. This is a gratifying situation for any film festival..
Renly was not modest, but spread his hands and said calmly, "This is the purpose of your special invitation to me, isn't it?？”
“Haha, yes, yes, we have no way to refute." Joel nodded in agreement..
Renly's confidence and pride have always been like this, with an upright calmness, not showing off or arrogance, but a deep foundation bursting from the inside out, without any aggression, but uprightly sticking to his position - - He will not be modest about the praise that belongs to him; he will not ask for the glory that does not belong to him..
People who like it like it very much, and people who hate it hate it even more..
Joel belongs to the former.
