Chapter 1094: collectively shut up

The fourth update today, please recommend, please subscribe!

"Gay Western", obviously, the media turned against Evan Bell again. He hoped that everyone would not view this film as a **** work, nor watch it as a Western movie, but the media chose to call it "Broken Back" "Mountain" has such a name, which is really annoying, and even more confusing.

In fact, although Evan Bell was helpless, he didn't argue with the media anymore, because even if he didn't speak, the media was embarrassed enough. What the media have to deal with is that they left Brokeback Mountain in their tracks, spit after spit on Evan Bell's decision, and now they have to lick it clean with disgust , and then cheekily and red-cheeked, posted their compliments on the media in which they worked.

Going back to August a year ago, Evan Bell, who led the whole summer frenzy in 2004, was kicked out that he was about to shoot the gay-themed work "Brokeback Mountain", so the media criticized him. One of Evan Bell's most loyal supporters, Chris Fairbank of "Film Review", concluded the matter with the sentence "This is the stupidest decision Evan Bell has ever made!" It also triggered a (fastest update) frenzy in the United States to complain about Evan Bell.

The Hollywood film industry is constantly improving, but the tolerance for homosexuality in this melting pot of movies has never changed - maybe a little bit, from zero tolerance to now zero point one? The unspoken rules of Hollywood are doomed. Gay movies are not in their early days. This is something that is not allowed to happen. No **** movie will be allowed to make a big splash, not even Evan Bell, who is in his prime.

Evan Bell's rise is very fast, like a rocket, but this is not uncommon in Hollywood, because stories of overnight fame abound, Evan Bell is really not a myth. Not even a fairy tale. What's even more surprising in Hollywood is that the speed of falling overnight is often ten times faster than the speed of fame. Maybe yesterday you can stand on the stage to receive the cheers and screams of countless people, but the next day you may become the target of thousands of people. The defamation incident that Evan Bell has experienced is nothing at all, although everyone is blaming Evan Bell. Put him in a desperate situation, but at least someone still pays attention to him. The real cruelty of Hollywood is that the spotlight is still on him the day before, and the building may be empty the next day. Even if he strips off and runs away on the street, no one pays attention. Ignoring and forgetting is the most terrifying thing.

so. Since Evan Bell can become popular like a rocket, he can also be ignored and forgotten overnight because of a **** movie. "Film Review", "Premiering", "News of the World"... The entire public opinion community is questioning Evan Bell's decision, and even the last positions "Entertainment Weekly" and "New York Times" dare not guarantee, I can only say something neutral. The whole of Hollywood is burying Evan Bell, and they use their pens to turn into dust, drowning Evan Bell little by little.

During the filming of "Brokeback Mountain", no one paid attention. No one paid attention, including William Wood. Viewers can see the news about "Crash" about "Mysterious Skin" and the news of Evan Bell's release of a new single. There's still news about awards season, but there's no news about Brokeback Mountain, and no one cares. It wasn't until the 62nd Venice Film Festival that "Brokeback Mountain" seemed to rise to the surface from the deep seabed, and appeared in front of everyone overnight with a dazzling appearance.

Golden Lion Award, Best Actor Award, this is an award from Venice, it's nothing; but the audience in Toronto stood up and clapped for 20 minutes? No one can ignore this, not even the arrogant American media. They finally began to realize that the power contained in "Brokeback Mountain" seemed to exceed everyone's imagination.

No one is willing to speak up, even the media who are best at "forgetting", best at "turning their faces and not recognizing people", and best at "feigning ignorance", are not willing to speak. The vows and convincing words from a year ago are still vivid in my mind. , now not only for them to speak. And to sing the praises of "Brokeback Mountain" was almost worse than killing them.

Therefore, the first media to report on "Brokeback Mountain" was actually the "News of the World", and the lace media of this non-professional entertainment newspaper actually grabbed ahead of everyone - in fact, there is no need to grab it at all, because except for Venice, Toronto and Europe Outside the media - to be precise, the American media is almost reluctant to speak. The price the News of the World was willing to talk about was that they didn't comment on the film itself, but instead focused on Evan Bell's hero saving beauty.

"News of the World" spent a lot of brushstrokes describing the heroic scenes of Evan Bell's heroic saving lives. For them, this is enough explosion point and attention point, enough for them to sell a few more newspapers. Under the rendering of the "News of the World", Evan Bell's heroic rescue of beauty at the premiere venue quickly spread on the Internet. This is not the first report of Evan Bell's heroic performance. There have been many times before and after, but netizens are still enjoying it. Because Evan Bell lives by their side like a civilian hero around them.

Therefore, even if Evan Bell will not star in the comic hero movie at all, the audience is still calling on the major film companies to make Evan Bell the real hero on the screen; People just understate it, but major media and websites are still tirelessly reporting at a large scale; even though this is the Toronto Film Festival, a carnival in which a movie is the protagonist, everyone still puts the focus in the wrong place.

All the American media collectively shut up, this scene is really too spectacular, most of the media may not know how to comment on "Brokeback Mountain", maybe because they don't want to admit their mistakes because of their face, or maybe they still have a quarrel with **** movies... The only two neutral media "New York Times" and "Entertainment Weekly" did not comment, but because Neil D'Arcy failed to watch the premiere of "Brokeback Mountain", it seems that he is also a little lack of confidence, he must Only after watching the movie can he speak; and William Wood doesn't know where to start. He has too many feelings for "Brokeback Mountain", and his job is only a reporter, not a film critic, which makes every word of his Tricky.

Under various circumstances, after the premiere of "Brokeback Mountain", the arrogant media actually lost their voices collectively, and no comment appeared. Faced with this situation, the famous British professional film magazine "Sight and Hearing" has given a proper name, called "Bell phenomenon".

The so-called Bell phenomenon is a spectacular scene in which Evan Bell uses his personality and method to make those indomitable media either slap themselves, become clowns, or shut up collectively.

In fact, the Bell phenomenon has happened many times before. For example, "Pirates of the Caribbean", which everyone is not optimistic about, has swept the box office. For example, the "Notebook of Love", which has been badly sung by countless people, has had a double harvest at the box office, and it has been scolded half to death. "Mysterious Skin" was well received after its release. Another example is the emergence of "Brokeback Mountain", which is also the most spectacular Bell phenomenon. Thousands of media outlets across the United States seem to have agreed that there will be no film reviews and no comments. This situation is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime situation, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to see again in the future, but it is a moment that is enough to be remembered by history.

In fact, even the American media themselves are very surprised. Everyone thinks that others will come forward, others will come forward, or at least some people will grab the news. After all, "Brokeback Mountain" has been popular in Venice and Toronto, and this news couldn't be hotter. , in order to make a living, someone will definitely be the first to break the news. Even if everyone does not post movie reviews because of their face, "Entertainment Weekly" and "The New York Times" will also publish them, as well as the "premier" that contradicts Evan Bell. Everyone's plan is to wait for other media to publish movie reviews. Firepower, and then send a movie review.

But everyone seems to be looking at each other, the most horrific coincidence in history, and there's been a lot of news about the Toronto premiere of "Brokeback Mountain" -- but not much, but the problem is a film review None, which makes the audience mistakenly believe that there are no film critics from the United States in Toronto at all, and the film critics have collectively disappeared and neglected their duties.

This kind of situation is indeed unprecedented, and it will almost only happen this time. But this time it happened, and it happened to everyone's mouths. After the premiere of "Brokeback Mountain" in Toronto, within six hours not a single comment from an American film critic appeared, which is really strange.

The most vivid explanation of the "Bell phenomenon" by "Sight and Hearing" is that the screenshot on the left is the news that major media cursed and complained about in August last year, while the screenshot on the right is blank. This strong contrast makes everyone All laughing - except the American media itself. The reason Sight & Sound is so unsympathetic to America on the other side of the Atlantic is not only because the British Isles don't care about homosexually sensitive subjects at all, they reported on "Brokeback Mountain" long after the Venice Film Festival, and it didn't last year either. "Falling down" on Evan Bell; and because of the dispute over the ownership of Evan Bell, a young man who shines in the world, the United Kingdom and the United States are also arguing. Whether Evan Bell belongs to the United Kingdom or the United States, the two parties have been quarreling, so this time we can see the embarrassment of the American media. Naturally, the British media did not hesitate to add fuel to the fire.

Silent, this is the voice of the American media, all sounds are silent, all sounds are still, silent, no sound, no sound, no sound of needles falling, no sound; a loud bang, this is Evan- Bell threw a huge slap in the face of the American media, which was earth-shattering.

This one, silent to sound, sparked a lot in the North American market in September.
