2288 Industry hot spots
Renly doesn't think this is his own credit, because in the previous life, without his intervention, Riz Ahmed still became the leading actor of "Night Runner" and was highly praised..
But Ritz doesn't think so. Just like Mads Mikkelsen, as American actors of Middle Eastern origin, their acting work always faces an invisible barrier, and they often have to pay ten times or even a hundred times. Only by working hard can we win the opportunity - what's worse is that after working ten times the sweat, we still don't have the chance..
The fact is that Ritz has been in the industry for nearly ten years, and "Night Run" is only his first starring role - what he really needs to thank is that Sisyphus Pictures is willing to take over the "Night Run" project, This special project focuses on minorities. The male protagonist himself is set as a minority. This allows actors like Ritz to get more opportunities. This is what Sisyphus Films is doing..
Since last year's Sundance Film Festival, Renly has gradually taken over more producer jobs and exerted more influence in the North American film market through Sisyphus Films; and now, those actions are gradually unveiled, Little by little, people become aware of Renly's true purpose..
For independent films, for ethnic minority actors, and for works with obscure themes, the debut of Sisyphus Films is undoubtedly crucial good news..
Therefore, Riz needs to express her gratitude, and look into Renly's eyes face to face, and convey her gratitude sincerely..
“……I believe that actors with outstanding abilities can always shine." Renly said with a smile..
Riz was slightly reserved, because Renly's words were undoubtedly a compliment to him. Fortunately, the dark brown skin covered the heat on his cheeks. "You mean, just like you?" Riz said in one sentence. The reply pushed the praise back.
Renly laughed happily, "Ha, I have bloomed enough light. Now I am like a beacon. If I continue to bloom, I will become a collective target. So, my goal now is to light up more Light, distract yourself, let yourself take a breather.”
This interpretation is also...a different approach.
Glancing at the messy scene after the prank before him, Riz finally relaxed, and a smile slowly overflowed from the depths of his eyes..
“Aren't we the target of your attack now? "Mendelsohn's voice broke in, interrupting the exchange between Renly and Riz. He faintly heard the ending, and then directly intervened in the topic, wiping the water stains from the corners of his mouth in a grim tone. Sendi complained to Renly..
Renly spread his hands, "Guilty found guilty..”
He admitted it so readily, but Mendelson didn't know what to do. He glared at Renly angrily, "You should stop these childish games and learn how to respect the elderly. You know, I am old enough to be My grandfather is here, I can't help myself anymore.”
“So what if we torment Tony, Angus and the others together? "Renly asked calmly..
Mendelson paused for a moment, muttered something vaguely, and then frowned, "That's another story." But as soon as he finished speaking, he quietly approached Renly. Step one, "How about it, do you have any special ideas now?"？”
Riz, who stood by and witnessed everything, had a hard time holding back his laughter..
“What are you planning? Hey, I'm talking about you! "Wen Jiang finally stopped and was cleaning himself up. From the corner of his eyes, he saw Renly and three people muttering something in the corner. He immediately raised his voice sensitively, "Is Renly secretly thinking about it again? What a prank？”
“Oops, I was discovered by accident. No, we need to make a more careful plan." It was Renly who answered. Not only did he not deny it in a hurry, but he also continued following the words, which immediately made Wen- Jiang and others were dumbfounded - what should they do now?？
If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have exposed it.……？
Felicity noticed the pause in the lounge and burst out laughing without holding back..
The atmosphere in the entire locker room was broken again. Wen Jiang touched his head with some annoyance and muttered in Chinese, "This is really evil. How come that guy can see through everything?" He never thought that a person with only How did a young man half his age master this wisdom? Even when he was gathered with middle-aged and old guys like them, he was not nervous at all and was even at ease. Unknowingly, he became one with the entire crew..
The bustling hustle and bustle lasted for a while, with staff coming in and out of the lounge - everyone was curious about what that cup of "Dead Sea water" coffee tasted like. But those who expect a taste similar to "sea salt coffee" are doomed to be disappointed. Obviously, after adding too much sea salt, the coffee is no longer coffee. It breaks the taste sensation in an unreasonable way. This is definitely a rare experience..
The messes have been cleaned up, and the chaos has returned to normal. The actors are still sitting in the lounge relaxing and waiting, but it is obvious that the tacit understanding between each other has become much closer - they are all victims. special experiences that gave rise to a common language.
“This year overall has been a bit...I don't know, boring. I didn't really enjoy it. Did you watch 'Birdman'?？”
“No, I haven't watched it yet. I've only watched the film 'Boyhood' so far. I like it very much. I don't even have time to watch Renly's work..”
“You're going to love 'Birdman', in which Michael Keaton is basically talking about himself: an actor whose career has been lackluster since becoming famous as Batman is looking forward to rediscovering his second career on the stage. The entire movie is Very interesting, especially the shot at the beginning.”
“Really? Do you think 'Birdman' can win an award? I thought 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' was more popular. At least three of my director friends mentioned this work of Wes Anderson. The light-weight comedy expression can be regarded as his current masterpiece..”
“Who knows? According to the habits of previous years, 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' may not even reach the decisive stage.”
“The Golden Globe Awards may be a weather vane. I wonder if the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has heard of it. You also know theirs. It is more like a yes-man than a weather vane. There is nothing professional about the awards. It is just a matter of public relations during the awards season. Stage summary.”
“Shouldn't Renly be asked about this? Hey Renly, are you really not going to the Golden Globes?？”
Chatting among actors is also inevitable. The topic of award season can always become a glimpse into the industry. It may also become a topic for them when chatting after dinner. Just like now, even if they are not interested in trophies, the trend of awards season is also It will affect their subsequent work - not to mention, firstly, this is a hot topic in the entire industry, and secondly, they are indeed interested in the trophy..
But as we talked, the topic came to Renly again..
Renly, who was discussing Wia skills with Felicity, suddenly heard Mendelson's voice and was interrupted. Turning his head, he could see Mendelson deliberately making a face, like an old naughty boy. This made Renly Renly laughed dumbly, "Aren't you going to attack Felicity? She's going to be sad." Felicity also won a nomination, but also missed the Golden Globe Awards..
“No, no, no, I'm fine, I'm very fine. Go on, please don't pay attention to me, just pretend I don't exist." Felicity quickly clarified, showing that she couldn't wait to fight with Renly. The look of clearing boundaries.
Everyone laughed.
Renly spread his hands and faced everyone's gaze, "No, I'm not going to attend the Golden Globe Awards. There are more interesting things going on now, and this is not a difficult choice..”
“But, don’t you expect to win the prize? Wen Jiang asked curiously. Before Renly could answer, he turned to look at his colleagues, "Don't you think so?" Renly's performance this year is very strong. The Golden Globe trophy should be awarded to him, what do you think?？”
“Ahem. The person involved is here, please pay attention to your words and deeds." Renly coughed twice on purpose, pretending to be very concerned, and asked everyone to confirm Wen Jiang's question..
Such a small gesture instantly resolved the embarrassment and made everyone chuckle..
Renly took advantage of the situation and said, "I know I'm very good. Thank you." He looked at Wen Jiang and expressed his gratitude without any humility. This also caused laughter again, "But I don't think so." This year belongs to me. I am not being modest, but I am stating an objective fact. Otherwise, why do you think I was absent from the Golden Globe Awards? Because I don’t want to sit in the spotlight and be humiliated in person. My arrogance is absolutely not the case. allow this to happen.”
These half-truths and half-false words are obviously self-deprecating, which makes people laugh. If combined with the actual situation of the Golden Globe Awards, the satirical effect can be doubled, and the laughter will become even more unstoppable..
“I don’t think so.” Felicity was the first to shake her head in denial, “I don’t think so.……”
But without continuing, Renly cast a meaningful look, "Madam, I think you need to be careful with your choices..”
Renly's competitors include Eddie Redmayne from "The Theory of Everything". It would not be appropriate if Felicity chose Renly.……
Felicity knew that Renly was deliberately making fun of her, and she felt helpless and rolled her eyes at Renly; but the other actors felt that Renly's "joke" was very accurate, and their low laughter turned into roars of laughter. , one by one they also started to complain, "Felicity, it's better to be careful", "Be careful that there are other ears here", "Some people will not be happy with your choice" - gradually, the target of the complaint seemed to be facing Harvey Weinstein moved.
It can be seen that Felicity’s manager Allison is definitely not the only one who feels Harvey’s dominance and strength..
