Chapter 110 Cancôn Film Festival (I)

Director Robert, chairman of the Cannes Film Festival jury, immediately became involved in the jury of the film festival.

He was not in a hurry to find the Chinese film Fang mentioned that made him curious, because after experiencing a few years of troughs, the Cannes Film Festival ushered in another good movie blast this year.

The veteran director not only made bold attempts and breakthroughs based on the original foundation, but many small countries that have never participated in the Cancheng Film Festival before have also sent refreshing excellent works to the judges this year.

The jury was divided into several groups, including those who were specifically responsible for reviewing foreign films, those who were specifically responsible for reviewing their own films, and even those who were focused on selecting unfamiliar but potential filmmakers from all participating films.

For a moment, the review committee, which was originally streamlined by members, was busy, and the videos that needed to be watched every day were almost swallowing up their time for meals or even sleeping.

Fortunately, you can see the results if you work like this.

During the first month of watching movies, each group has its own unique discovery

The main competition unit broke through the boundaries between the original country and the region. Senegal, Palestine and even Guatemala have eye-catching works.

The LGBT-themed film directed by a well-known female director in Cancôme also entered the nomination list after the first trial with an unstoppable momentum

Robert took the shortlists submitted by each group, and patiently searched for the familiar and unfamiliar name.

Finally, he saw the name he wanted to see in the list submitted by the last review team.

Lu Xinyuan, trembling lover Lver

Hu Yan's first round of public relations activities for Ling Chu to win the personal awards has ended. In order to consolidate the film's status and impression in the minds of the jury members before the festival starts, she decided to let "Trinking Lover" be previewed ten days before the Cancheng Film Festival, and strictly control its popularity, and only promote it among small-scale targeted audience groups to ensure that the film can maintain a relatively stable and high reputation at the start of the competition.

In this regard, Lintu has no right to object, only the obligation to cooperate

Ling Chu and Lu Xinyuan are completely unfamiliar names for almost all the local residents of Cancheng and filmmakers who have a say in the film festival.

Without a fan base and no weighty weather vane award as a way to open the way, the first preview of the trembling lover was so low-key that less than eighty preview tickets were sold in the early morning hours of the smallest hall of the well-known theater.

Its classification has been planned to be in the category of plot/thriller/crime/suspense. If you choose to buy such videos at this point in time, most of them are looking for tired people who are refreshing and stimulating in their minds.

If the plot of the movie is a little slow, there will definitely be continuous snoring sounds in the theater.

Robert, who had finished his busy work all day, also kept a low profile wearing sunglasses and masks, checked tickets in the dark and entered the screening hall of his trembling lover.

Less than half of the people were sitting down in the small hall that was enough to accommodate hundreds of people. He saw several familiar faces in it, including judges from other groups in the jury, as well as well-known film critics who focused on crime/suspense.

Although the attendance rate of this movie is not high, the value of the audience is very high

Robert took off his sunglasses with some amusement and let his body lie comfortably in the chair

Is it a good dream that can relieve fatigue or a 90-minute movie viewing journey that can boost your nerves depends on the strength of the director, creative team and actors

The next day, Robert, who had not been sleeping all night, pushed open the door to the temporary office of the Cannes Film Festival judges group with dark circles.

A freshly released "Yesterday Review" was printed and placed on his seat

This is a filmmaker media that is only active during the opening of the Cannes Film Festival.

It will make an appointment with influential filmmakers in Cancán every day to describe the movies they see today and express their feelings or comments. In order to speculate on which works will eventually win the championship or the highest-profile Cancán Film Festival this year, it is considered a popular guide to watching movies during the Cancán Film Festival.

Interestingly, different critics may have two completely opposite views on the same movie.

However, the publisher of "Yesterday Film Review" never shy away from this kind of disagreement, and even used it as a gimmick to vote on the online platform to gain higher attention

Robert couldn't hide his uneasy mood yesterday, and he opened the yesterday's film review on the table with some eagerness.

Sure enough, in the conspicuous location of the information printed on the screenshots and kept for archives, he saw the promotional photos of the movie taken by the Chinese boy named Ling Chu, as well as the short title of the film review.
