787 grand entrance
The raging cold wind was howling by, and snowflakes were floating in the sky. My hands and feet were so cold that I lost consciousness, but the screams and shouts on the red carpet of the main venue were gradually disappearing. control.
Mark was jumping, roaring, and celebrating crazily. He was jumping up and down as if he was enjoying the madness of the carnival. Several strange spectators standing nearby were also infected and couldn't help but follow him. One of them was a boy of a similar age. shouted, "It's incredible how kind and considerate Renly is.！”
Renly had been here for at least fifteen minutes, signing autographs, taking photos, and hugging each other..
The red carpet was divided into two completely different parts. In the part close to the main venue, reporters craned their necks, looking eagerly. They picked up telephoto and wide-angle lenses, bored and anxiously pressing the shutter to record this classic scene. ; Far away from the main venue, in this part of the venue, the audience is enjoying the carnival. Even the cold winter night begins to quietly recede. The hot and boiling crowd outlines the most dazzling scenery since the Berlin Film Festival opened..
Mark leaned over and shouted loudly, "I'm not surprised at all! Last night, Renly cooperated with us to complete the end-of-semester project report! He is so great! I mean, he is the best!" Meiyu Between the eyes, deep in the eyes, and above the corners of the mouth, there is full of joy and cheerfulness.
“Are you serious? "The young man showed disbelief..
Mark didn't explain too much, he just raised his chin and gestured to Renly, who was taking pictures with the fans, "You can verify it with your own eyes..”
“Ahhhh! Renly, I love you! "A boy's earth-shattering roar exploded like thunder, which caused the surrounding noise to pause for a moment. Then he saw Renly cast an unexpected look, and then raised his voice and said, "Thank you." A response that immediately made everyone around him go crazy, and the shouting unexpectedly escalated to a higher level..
“Master! "This title suddenly flashed through Mark's mind. All American movie fans seemed to call Renly this way. He never understood the reason before, but after last night and tonight, he seemed to understand a little, so he shouted He blurted out, his smile couldn't help but bloom happily, he looked at his friends, then at the fellow travelers who had just spoken, and shouted again, "Master！”
Then, one after another, the shouts became overwhelming and deafening, "Master! Master! Master!"！”
Even the vehicles coming and going involuntarily slowed down, looking at the grand scene in front of them in astonishment, with puzzled eyes: This must be Berlin, not Cannes.？
The uncontrolled roads outside began to become impassable, vehicles slowed down, and crowds of people surged. There were also guests dining in restaurants, office workers jogging on the roadside, and people shopping and strolling. They all also cast curious glances. With their eyes, it seems that their daily life has paused for a short while at this moment..
The shouts, one wave after another, "Master!" The passionate call is becoming one of the footnotes of the 62nd Berlin Film Festival..
Renly had to turn around and leave, because the traffic on the street was falling into disaster, and the work of the traffic police began to become harder. It was just past seven o'clock, and the rush hour was still not over. Once the chaos started, it would only get worse. It was getting worse. So, Renly took two steps back, waved to the surrounding audience, and then turned and walked towards the press area at the far end..
Mark stared blankly at Renly's retreating figure..
“Suddenly, I became quiet, and quietly watched the tall and tall figure walking away. Among the high-rise buildings and the surging crowds, he looked so small, as if he was no bigger than a palm, at least for a while. If the strong wind blows, you will be swallowed up.
The next second, the silver flash exploded, like a huge wave, sweeping towards him, swallowing him up and drowning him in an instant, watching helplessly as the figure disappeared bit by bit..
However, it was only for a brief moment, and then the figure showed its outline again, the screams were still surging, the flashlights were still surging, everything revolved around that figure, that firm and majestic figure... all the time. Only now did the meaning of the title 'Master Renly' become clear..”
This is a clip of Mark’s thoughts that he left on his Facebook after the premiere that night, and recorded in detail the chance encounters and mistakes of the previous night, as well as the wonderful experience of the premiere night. Mark is not a website Hong, Facebook and a group of friends are only limited to real life. Not many people have seen this speech. It is just a souvenir. However, it is like a seed, slowly taking root and sprouting, and finally Grow into a big tree in the sky.
Leaving the second half of the red carpet and entering the first half of the red carpet, this was a scene that Renly was familiar with. Whether it was taking photos or interviews, everything was at his fingertips. There were even TV cameras at the scene, and the host stepped forward to talk to him. Renly conducted a brief interview.
However, unlike the Golden Globes or Toronto, the content of the interview revolved entirely around the film festival. We asked Renly about the movies he had watched in the past two days, about the works that Renly was most looking forward to at this year's film festival, and about Renly's expectations for the film festival. Thoughts on "Detachment" and the Berlin Film Festival……
During the interview, there was a small commotion at the scene. Another official car arrived at the scene. Everyone couldn't help but cast their eyes. It was not an actor or star, but a silver-haired man wearing a Harry Potter suit. A little old man with round glasses, a silver-gray shirt paired with a grass-green woolen vest, and finally a dark brown suit jacket, with a calm and unique German "fashion" taste.
When the little old man appeared, the audience occasionally whistled. The scene was a little funny, and several audience members could even be seen booing. However, the reporters were extremely excited, and the flashlights poured down like a waterfall, drowning them in an instant. red carpet.
Under the attention of everyone, the little old man walked straight towards Renly, extended his right hand in a friendly manner, then put his left hand on Renly's shoulder, and laughed happily, "Hoho, you are better than I thought." Higher, it seems my heels today are not high enough." A cold and humorous joke that made people smile..
“We are not standing on the basketball court now, so I think you are safe." Renly's response was humorous yet generous, and successfully made the host standing aside and the little old man in front of him laugh." Did Mr. Chairman make a special trip to support us tonight? Or am I being too sentimental?？”
This little old man is the chairman of the Berlin Film Festival, Dieter-Kosslick. Since taking over the chairmanship in 2001, Dieter has been committed to maintaining Berlin's artistic and political pursuits while also Looking for a place in the international film market. This is not an easy task, but Dieter always sticks to his strategy.
Within an acceptable range, Dieter opened his arms to Hollywood. However, unlike Cannes, Berlin still welcomed movies such as "Detachment", "Dead Man Walking", "Howl" and "The Messenger". Despite this, Berlin , the commercial atmosphere of Hollywood still poured in uncontrollably, which won him many supporters, but also attracted many opponents..
However, no one can deny Dieter’s influence in the German film industry, especially with the strong official support from the government. Even within Europe, Dieter is an important industry insider..
Nowadays, Dieter rarely attends the premiere of a certain movie. Instead, he is more close to the people and joins the daily movie screenings, watching movies and sharing opinions with ordinary audiences. Tonight’s appearance is really a unexpected surprise.
“Tony Kaye is an old friend of mine for many years. I have always hoped that he could come to Berlin. Fifteen years later, he finally came. As the owner, I naturally cannot neglect him." Dieter said with a smile, without any trace of indifference. Because the person standing in front of him was Renly, he deliberately said some flattering words, "How is it? Was Tony an easy guy to get along with on set?？”
“I'm trying my best." Renly's expression was cryptic and restrained, with a helpless expression on his face and a completely German style of humor, which once again made Dieter and a small group of reporters around him laugh..
Dieter came because of Tony and also came for Renly. Among the new generation of actors, it is really rare for an actor to have audience appeal while maintaining artistic pursuits. This is crucial to the Berlin Film Festival. , Dieter attended tonight to examine Renly, and also to examine "transcendence", and looked forward to supporting a European actor who was born in the Berlin Film Festival but has Hollywood attributes in the future..
After a simple meeting, Dieter expressed great satisfaction. He patted Renly on the shoulder again, "I will go to the front to say hello to my old friends. After the movie is over, we will chat slowly." Dieter did not agree. Stay longer. The content that can be inspected on the red carpet is really limited. He has already noticed the enthusiasm of the audience, and this is enough..
Dieter said meaningfully, "You should stay here for a while, maybe there will be a surprise later." After saying that, Dieter nodded and continued to move forward..
It didn't take long for Renly to understand what Dieter meant.：
Asghar- Farhadi, director of "A Farewell"; Francois-Ozon, director of "Eight Beautiful Pictures" and "Granny" ;Charlotte-Gainsbourg, "anti-Christian", "melancholic" actress.
More importantly, they are all members of the jury for this year’s main competition unit, and each of them is a film practitioner with a strong mass base and industry reputation in Europe..
Jury members can attend the premiere of each film, but it is entirely up to them to decide whether to attend. The important thing is that they will watch every film. For those jury members who are not used to exposure, they will not be able to attend all premieres. This is also allowed. But today, they appeared at the premiere of "Transcendence".
Especially François Ozon, the best representative of French Mesozoic directors. His presence is undoubtedly an important highlight of the evening..
However, this was not the end. The screams at the scene suddenly exploded like thunder, even comparable to Renly's appearance. Looking back, you can see that Jake Gyllenhaal has appeared..
