Chapter 672： National is not necessarily global
The Cannes Film Festival has two major traditions. One is the passionate and unrestrained French productions, like palm trees on the Mediterranean Sea and bikinis on golden beaches; the other is the maverick with mixed praise and criticism. Some people accused the art of commercial hype to cover up the art Shine, some people summarized as the jumpy aesthetic haunting the jury members with different styles every year.
If the 77-year-old Oscar is an elderly man, then the fifty-eight-year-old Cannes is definitely a housewife of menopause. It is harder to find out her temperament than to reach the sky.
Those media that can accurately predict the Oscars have repeatedly failed at the previous Cannes Film Festival. The best director, best screenwriter, actor, and actress are often very rare to be cast, and often deliberate calculations are unavoidable. The four are empty, not to mention the Palme d'Or and the Jury Prize.
In previous Cannes Film Festivals, there have been countless films that have been unanimously favored but unacceptable.
However, this year is different. Ryan’s eyes on watching movies have always been in line with the vast majority of audiences. The result is that the attribution of several heavyweight awards appears to be calm, almost completely in line with the outside world’s predictions. the same.
Ang Lee once again won the Palme d’Or with "Brokeback Mountain", and the jury award fell on the head of "Green Red". Tom Lee Jones, also from Hollywood, not only won the crown of best actor, Also took away the best screenwriter.
There is no doubt that Hollywood movies have become the biggest winners.
After the noisy awards ceremony, Ryan took the members of the jury and the winners to the last press conference of the Cannes Film Festival.
Although almost all French media predicted in advance that "Brokeback Mountain" would win Palme d'Or, when Lee Ang picked up the award again, the French who had always liked to say sour words inevitably complained.
As always, their problems are full of "Hollywood films are too commercial". The selection results will hinder the development of potential experimental and pioneering films. "Hollywood films are empty and will definitely decline." etc. Sour words.
Most of these questions were thrown at Ang Lee, and Ang Lee’s answers also proved why he could gain a foothold in Hollywood, instead of where he came from and went back after a brief glorious period like the others. .
"For a long period of time in the future, the current pattern of movies dominated by Hollywood and other multi-polarized films will not change. Unlike some people say, Hollywood films will get tired of watching them. It will." Lee Ang has spared no effort in maintaining Hollywood movies. "Hollywood's market share will only grow in the next ten years. It is impossible to completely repel Hollywood movies."
Journalists in continental Europe disdain such answers, but reporters from China gave Li An a lot of face and asked timely, "Mr. Li, why can your film be easily accepted by the American market and audience?"
Oscars and the North American film market are the most popular topics among film practitioners and entertainment media on the other side of the Pacific.
"I have visited the seven major film companies in the United States, and I always ask a question wherever I go, why can American films be able to reach any corner of the world?"
Although he is a standard banana man, Ang Lee’s answer is very sincere, “I got almost the same answer. They said that they actually didn’t think about the issue of having American characteristics when shooting the film. In other words, they did not recognize the'nationality'. This is the world’s view."
"And what about us?" He showed a somewhat helpless smile. "Many people have been emphasizing that films should have national characteristics. This is a conceptual difference, but it is a phenomenon worthy of our study. It's not about us. Not for national characteristics, but not for national characteristics and national characteristics. Movies made in that way are like experimental films, and no matter how much attention they are, they can only be niche movies."
As the chairman of the jury, Ryan made a final summary in the face of many interviewed media.
"The average level of the participating films this year is relatively high. Most of the films are both artistic and popular. The major award-winning films "Brokeback Mountain", "Green Red", "Broken Flower" and "The Three Times of Escada" "Funeral" and so on are like this, in the end I had to make a choice."
Then, he talked about the judges team, "Although the nine judges are mostly from different countries and have different cultural backgrounds, our judging team has always adhered to the principles of art and fairness."
"I have participated in several Cannes Film Festivals. Looking back now, the Cannes Film Festival is a good window to bring your style and culture to the world."
Ryan is not stingy with his elegant and graceful side, "This time serving as the chairman of the jury is a very pleasant experience! It will always remain in my memory."
The 58th Cannes Film Festival came to an end. Regardless of how the media would comment later, Ryan got the most desired result. After attending the official Cannes celebration dinner, he left France.
Although another Hollywood film won the Palme d’Or, the focus of the North American entertainment media is not on this. Five days before the end of the Cannes Film Festival, that is, when "Smiths" is about to land on the North American theaters on May 17, The shocking gossip almost took away all the attention.
One of the most famous couples in the United States, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s marriage has lit a red light.
If it is another reason that triggers the emotional crisis, the whole North America will not be uproarious. The problem with the marriage of the two people is precisely the third party intervening, and the third party is also famous-Angelina? Julie!
The media quoted many people familiar with the matter. Before the final post-production of this film was completed, Jennifer Aniston personally captured Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in bed, and the two parties were having a big fight. After the fight, the American sweetheart moved out of her mansion, and Pete has come to the brink of divorce.
Brad Pitt did not choose to redeem this marriage. Instead, he had a double relationship with Angelina Jolie, and even participated in the interview at the premiere of "Smiths" without concealing his appreciation of each other.
Even if the heroine of the film, Jennifer Aniston, was absent from the premiere, it still attracted media coverage. The final publicity effect of this film can be imagined.
Such a movie with no surprises from structure to plot to fighting has become another box office winner after "X-Men 3: Last Stand" in the summer file.
Originally Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s husband and wife file appeared in the film as a husband and wife, which is attractive enough, plus this shocking gossip, it can be said that Disney’s already hot publicity has been added. Heavy weights.
As a result, amidst the hustle and bustle, "Smiths" earned 63.42 million US dollars at the box office in North America in the first week. As a traditional action movie, this is a very good result.
History is always surprisingly similar. Originally, there was no scene in the previous life that happened in the filming. Ryan thought things would go in a different direction, but after a period of delay, everything that should have happened happened again, from the closeness of Pete and Julie. In terms of the relationship, when the two were caught by Aniston, they probably had been together for a long time.
"Every relationship has whirlpools and waves, sometimes difficult, sometimes quiet, and sometimes full of fun. The hardest moment is often when you want to pursue a perfect state, but that is ridiculous and unrealistic... People Naturally, they signed a divorce agreement. They didn't know that they had missed the opportunity to accommodate each other, admit their mistakes, and re-prove love. That would be the best."
"Unfortunately, this is not his view of marriage. Our views are completely different. If the views are not at all consistent, we cannot force a relationship to continue. What I hope is the most loyal relationship deep in the soul, but he has the right to choose another one. This kind of form, so he chose to break up."
On May 23, the Monday when Ryan returned to North America, "Smiths" had just taken the top spot in the North American box office chart. Jennifer Aniston issued a divorce statement, which completely pushed this shocking gossip to the climax. , This will be the divorce case that Hollywood has the most fame, money, and profit after entering the new century.
As a beneficiary of this divorce case, "Smiths" took only one weekend and one full week, and the North American box office exceeded 100 million U.S. dollars. For Disney, which invested 130 million U.S. dollars in the film, Almost saw the hope of recovering costs through the box office.
Of course Ryan is still very sober, it is impossible for this film to recover its cost at the box office, and the subsequent full copyright operation is the key to profitability.
The hottest summer file battle has entered a white-hot stage. A week after the "Smiths" was released, "Fantastic Four" made its grand debut. Although this film is not as strong as its Marvel companions, it was also grabbed in the first week. With a North American box office of $56.06 million, the "Smiths" was removed from the championship.
Because this series no longer belongs to Twentieth Century Fox, it was sold to Paramount Pictures by Ryan. The four actors are all different from the previous life. The only thing in common is that the films are basically successful. For superhero movies, Actors are not the most critical factor for success.
Among the films released in May, "Smiths" and "X-Men 3: Last Stand" were the biggest winners, especially the latter. Before the arrival in June, the North American box office reached a cumulative total of 238 million US dollars, but the film The latter's box office declined very fast, and the final North American box office will certainly be difficult to exceed the 300 million US dollar mark.
After the beginning of June, several commercial blockbusters with a production cost of more than 100 million will be put into fierce box office competition, and the first to land will be Sophia Coppola who completed all post-production "The Hunger Games" in mid-May. r1152()
