The beginning of every year is like this. The hustle and bustle of the awards season becomes the headlines of major entertainment newspapers and magazines. The handsome and well-dressed beauties dazzle people's attention. This year is no exception. Tom Sherak is in charge of American film arts. Entering its second year with the School of Science, it is still turbulent and lively.
The awards season in North America attracts the attention of the world every year, and the Berlin Film Festival, which also kicked off at the beginning of the year, is naturally relatively empty. However, the Berlin Film Festival's personality is that it never intends to compromise. No matter how serious the difficulties the film festival faces, they have no intention of changing the opening time of the film festival. This has caused the Berlin Film Festival, which opened in February, to frequently compete with Glee. The scheduling of the US and Oscars collided, resulting in only a handful of stars willing to come to Berlin in the bitter winter of early February.
However, this year's 61st Berlin Film Festival was abuzz with the arrival of "True Grit" and "Black Swan". "True Grit" is a new work launched by the Coen brothers, and the cast includes Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon, two powerful actors, as well as the blockbuster new-generation actress Hailee Steinfeld, which is also the highlight of this year's awards season; "Black Swan" naturally needs no introduction, Evan Bell, Natalie The collaboration of Portman and Meryl Streep, coupled with the stunning appearance of Mila Kunis, has long brought their influence from North America to Europe.
Both the Coen brothers and Evan Bell arrived in Berlin with a large number of actors, which made the Berlin Film Festival present a lively scene rarely seen in recent years, even enough to make Venice and Cannes look envious, especially I am even more envious of Venice, which I once strongly invited Evan Bell to go to. As for the Cannes Film Festival, which has not seen Evan Bell for three consecutive years, it has even stepped aside.
Two years ago, when Evan Bell came to Berlin with "There Will Be Blood", he not only won the Silver Bear Award for Best Director, completing his own mini-grand slam for Best Director, but he also witnessed the decline of the Berlin Film Festival. these past two years. It seems that the Berlin Film Festival still hasn¡¯t changed much, but Berlin¡¯s persistence has quietly gained more rewards. Berlin¡¯s persistence in artistry is gradually returning to above the level. At least in the past year, the film has received the most recognition from professionals. Festival is Berlin. So, although Berlin is still in a period of struggle, things are indeed moving in the right direction step by step.
When the 61st Berlin Film Festival comes to an end. Each award has found its owner, and this Berlin Film Festival has quietly created new history.
"Blood Redemption", a film directed by an American director and set in Albania, won the best screenplay award. The best actor and best actress were won by all the actors and actresses of the Iranian film "The Farewell", which also made "The Farewell" the winner. ¡± became the biggest winner at this year¡¯s Berlin Film Festival. Hungarian film master B¨¦la Tarr's "The Turin Horse" won the Jury Prize; German director Ulrich Kohler's "Nercoleptic" won the Silver Bear for Best Director.
At the most anticipated Golden Bear Award for Best Picture, "Black Swan" directed by Evan Bell successfully won the award. This is not only a further result for Evan Bell after winning the Silver Bear Award for Best Director two years ago, but "Black Swan" is also the most praised work at this year's film festival. "The Farewell" became the biggest contender for the Golden Bear Award, and in the end, "Black Swan" won the award as everyone expected.
"Black Swan" won the Golden Bear Award, which Evan Bell and his team did not expect before going to Berlin. After all, the Berlin Film Festival is well known for its enthusiasm for politics, and "Black Swan" is obviously not a political work; But in addition to its focus on politics, Berlin¡¯s pursuit of art is also second to none among the three major film festivals. ¡°Black Swan¡± is a dark art discussion film. It was unanimously loved by the film festival judges, which is a matter of course.
Evan Bell once again made history. So far, he has won the Golden Lion Award and the Silver Lion Award for Best Director in Venice, the Golden Bear Award and the Silver Bear Award for Best Director in Berlin, and at Cannes Evan Bell -Bale also won the Best Director Award. In addition, Evan Bell, the final award of the Toronto Film Festival, the People's Choice Award, has also been collected. It can be said that now Evan Bell only has the Palme d'Or in Cannes, and he has also become He is one of the directors most likely to hit the three major film festivals.
What¡¯s interesting is that it coincides with Evan Bell¡¯s trajectory at the Oscars. Evan Bell's performance as a director at the three major film festivals is also better than that of an actor. In terms of actors, Evan Bell currently only relies on "Brokeback Mountain" to win the Best Actor Award at the Venice Film Festival. He also won the Best Actor Award in Berlin and Cannes Even Evan Bell failed to achieve a breakthrough, and he is still further away from the Best Actor Grand Slam. This is also an interesting fact in the film industry.
After the 61st Berlin Film Festival comes to an end. The "Black Swan" that won the Golden Bear Award??Questions are the focus, which is natural, but what caught many people off guard was that the Cannes Film Festival actually became the center of unexpected attention.
At first, people were just discussing the possibility of Evan Bell winning the Palme d'Or in Cannes. In fact, he hopes to become the third person to win the highest award, the Grand Slam, after Michelangelo Antonioni and Robert Altman. There are many directors, eighteen in all, and Evan Bell has just joined this ranks, becoming the nineteenth candidate eligible to win a Grand Slam.
But Evan Bell himself is too legendary. Since winning the Golden Lion Award for his "mysterious skin" in 2004, Evan Bell has created such a miracle in just six years. The frequency of masterpieces It's really amazing. Take a look at the current works directed by Evan Bell, "The Notebook", "Mysterious Skin", "Little Miss Sunshine", "Perfume", "Into the Wild", "There Will Be Blood", "Juno", "One Day" , "In the Cloud", "Inception" and "Black Swan", a total of eleven works, all of which are excellent works, with 100% positive reviews.
Therefore, people will definitely not be surprised if Evan Bell launches a new film again this year and then wins the Palme d'Or at Cannes. This also led to the heated discussion about when Evan Bell would win a Grand Slam after he won the Golden Bear. In this case, the Cannes Film Festival fell into the trap.
People unexpectedly discovered that Evan Bell has never appeared in Cannes since "Perfume" in 2006. In fact, Evan Bell does not have no chance. If we talk about 2007's "Into the Wild" and 2008's If "The Dark Knight" was relatively weak, last year's "Inception" was downright weird.
"Inception" first applied to the Cannes Film Festival, but was ultimately rejected by the Cannes Film Festival. Such rumors attracted the attention of many people. Although both Eleven Studios and the Cannes Film Festival later denied it, people still find it strange no matter what they think, because "Inception" was originally a work that needed to be released globally, hoping to open up the European market, and the release date has just been Okay, it matches the temperament of the Cannes Film Festival, but why don't both parties have such an idea? Is there any conflict between the November release and the Cannes Film Festival?
This moment triggered countless speculations, and people soon recalled the quarrel between Evan Bell and Gil Jacobs after the Cannes Film Festival in 2006. After that, Gil Jacobs was angry with Evan. Bell stopped pretending. This kind of speculation easily aroused the attention of media around the world. People are curious, has Evan Bell, who is in full swing, really been banned from the Cannes Film Festival? Or is it that Evan Bell, who has an unruly personality, was banned from the Cannes Film Festival because of conflicts with Jill Jacobs? No matter which point it is, it is exciting enough.
¡°It has to be said that the Cannes Film Festival is a mess. Originally February was not the season of Cannes at all, but people's attention swarmed in and surrounded Gil Jacobs. Countless voices around the world were questioning Gil Jacobs: Why not invite Evan Bell to Cannes? Film Festival.
Such an aggrieved situation left Gil Jacobs speechless. He would not be so stupid as to admit that the Cannes Film Festival had banned Evan Bell. This would be a huge harm to the reputation of the film festival, but at the same time Gil Jacobs believed that this was also an opportunity to fight back. Gil Jacobs shifted the responsibility to Evan Bell, "Of course we welcome all excellent films to Cannes, and we will choose them based on the style of Cannes." The participating films hope to present the best film feast to all audiences. But unfortunately, Evan has not selected any more films to come to Cannes since 'Perfume', which is also a huge regret for us."
On the one hand, Gil Jacobs is implying that even if Evan Bell selects a work, it must "conform to the Cannes style", otherwise it will be rejected like "Brokeback Mountain". This is what Gil Jacobs wants for himself. On the other hand, Gil Jacobs said that Evan Bell was unwilling to come to Cannes and had nothing to do with him.
In response to this, Evan Bell's response was, "Do I have to go to Cannes?" This sentence made the reporter choke directly, and even made Gil Jacobs' cheeks turn red after seeing the news.
"But, don't you want to win the Film Festival Grand Slam? You are just short of the Palme d'Or." The reporter asked eagerly.
Evan Bell was surrounded at the Los Angeles International Airport. He smiled and said, "Are the Grand Slams important?" He easily killed all the reporters, and Evan Bell did not pay attention to the Cannes Film Festival. His attitude caused an uproar.
But there is no doubt that Evan Bell, who has his own way, doesn't care what people think, and Gil Jacobs can't refute like a mad dog at this time, otherwise the image of the Cannes Film Festival will be ruined, so He can only pretend to be pregnantHe said he didn't care about all this at all, but his heart was already overturned by anger. What¡¯s even more frightening is that people are still asking intermittently: Is it true that Evan Bell won¡¯t come to Cannes?
