1318 The Return Movie
"Collaborating with Leonardo can be said to be a dream come true. Just like every girl, Leonardo was once my dream lover. When I learned that I could cooperate together, I couldn't believe it and nodded and agreed impatiently." Carrey had a slight smile on his face, but the simple words revealed a girl's excitement, which made people smile.
"But because of this, it's always difficult for me to concentrate and invest in the performance and filming process. I told Leo that it's all because of him being too handsome." Carrey's teasing made all the reporters laugh softly, "So, the final product presented by the movie, I'm not sure if it's my best performance, or whether my performance affected the completeness of the work. I was a little uneasy, but I tried my best. I hope the audience can enjoy it. Even if it's not for me, everyone can quietly appreciate Leo."
"Oh, that's definitely a beautiful scenery." Justin interrupted again, and the chuckle turned into a loud laugh.
Carrey's eyes were full of smiles, "And the cooperation with Lan Li was a very special experience. Before joining the crew, I actually had some doubts about myself. If the actor's work is not in place and then affects the director's work, then will I still become an excellent actor? So, I really have some hesitation."
"After I really started to play, I found..." Carrey turned his head and looked at Lan Li, with a mysterious smile on his face, solicitingly asked, "Can I say it? The details behind the scenes of the filming?"
Lan Li shrugged gently, "As long as I don't treat the staff hard, I can talk about everything."
The audience burst into hilariousness.
Carrey also chuckled, widened his eyes and said quickly, "Look, this is the Lanli you didn't see." Then he continued, "During the filming process, Lanli's attitude towards the character and the script is completely different. Sometimes, he would even think about a dialogue or a page of the script for a long time. Levien Davis is not a character, he is a real person."
"So, every rivalry with Renli is a unique experience. We keep slowing down the rhythm of the performance and quietly blending into the whole story. This is really a very unique experience." Carrey concluded.
It is vaguely possible to taste the difference in Kerry's words.
But for Renli, he always believed that such comparisons were meaningless. Every actor and every collaboration was unique, and horizontal comparisons were unfair and unnecessary.
"Simply put, Justin is not an excellent actor." Lanley's voice came out of the microphone, interpreting the deep meaning of Carrey's words to a deeper and more... off-track meaning.
"Hey!" Justin's complaint responded just right, and then the audience laughed again, and the focus of the topic was still diverted.
Then, the questions on the scene became extremely lively, about the Coen brothers, about Justin and Garnett, about Carrey, and of course about Renly. After a round trip, the question still returned to Renly again.
"Congratulations." The reporter who stood up, and the opening remark was like this. He realized his old tunes were repeated, so he further explained, "I mean, congratulations to the film's premiere at Cannes; and, congratulations on winning his first Oliver Trophy."
Everyone suddenly realized.
In fact, this is also one of the focus of Cannes this year. Everyone is eager to try and ask. Now a reporter has finally broken this layer of window paper.
"You are an excellent actor; but in the past few years, your luck in winning awards has always seemed to be good, from TV to movies, to music, and now drama, you are only one step away from egot. So, do you have any ideas about egot? In addition, the performance of 'Drunk Folk' is undoubtedly amazing, so do you have any expectations for this Cannes Film Festival award competition?"
This is the truth.
Objectively speaking, Lanli's luck in winning the award is indeed good. From the beginning of the "Pacific War" to the staged summary of the previous work "detachment", almost every work can win the favor and attention of the award, which also makes Lanli the fastest rising actor in the new generation. None of them.
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Lan Li's mouth.
Perhaps, this is the advantage of being a reborn person?
However, as for Ren Li personally, he is more willing to attribute his experience and precipitation for his two lives.
In everyone's eyes, he is a young man under the age of twenty-four; but in fact, he is about to turn fifty-six. Generally speaking, the peak of the artistic creation of an actor is often between the ages of thirty-five and forty-five. If this comparison is made, Renli's artistic creativity is not too early.
But then again, as a reborn person himself, this is the best proof of excellent luck, isn't it?
"Thank God?" Lanli's ending sound rose gently and answered in a playful way, owing his luck to God. This sentence is fine.
"For more than personally, I still hope that everyone can return to the work itself more. We have many more to discuss about the 'Drunk Folk Song'. This is obviously an excellent work. As for the award selection work, it should be handed over to the jury to complete it. I don't want to reveal too much thirst/hope here, and then scare the judges and affect their work."
The second half of the sentence was obviously a joke. In a quiet manner, Lan Li changed the topic in a tremendous way, and made the media reporters on the scene chuckle again.
But the reporters were not able to be dismissed so easily.
"Lanli, I'll ask, it's been nearly four months since you last took on a movie. Do you have any plans for your next job?"
Lanli could clearly feel Joel sitting next to him rolling his eyes, not hiding his dissatisfaction at all, which made Lanli smile, "During Cannes, I would not consider other works.'Drunk Folk Song' is the most important task. If you have no problem with the movie itself, then I think today's press conference may end early."
A simple word suddenly made the entire hall and venue extremely noisy, and everyone expressed their urgent protest.
The last chance to ask questions unexpectedly fell into Emily's hands, and she was a little nervous.
"Hey, Lanley." Emily's throat tightened slightly, clearing her throat. "I have a question about the movie. For me, this is a movie about farewell. Levien has been saying goodbye, saying goodbye to love, saying goodbye to family, saying goodbye to friendship, and even saying goodbye to folk songs. What do you think about this?"
Lan Li said with a light head to the head of her head, but her first reaction was to turn her head to look at Joel and Ethan and ask them if they were willing to answer the questions, but Joel waved his hands repeatedly, "This is your question." The look that was avoidable really made people laugh.
Lanley did not refuse, "In a sense, I agree with you. When Joel and Ethan conceived the film, they tried to present the story of an era. The most important significance is not what you have achieved, but that you are a part of this folk wave. So, when we look back on history, you are an integral part of history."
"But life is a long farewell, farewell to childhood, farewell to youth, farewell to life, farewell to dreams, and at the end, farewell to the world. On this road, we need to constantly accept encounters, knowing each other, accompanying each other, and the separation that follows. This is not an easy thing, but it is something that cannot be avoided."
Everyone at the press conference could truly feel that when talking about the movie, Lan Li was different after all. His shining eyes burst into a bright figure.
"So, Levien has been learning to say goodbye, but many people cannot learn it in their entire lives. For us, whether we are willing to accept it or not, the era of folk songs has become the past. Then one day in the future, the current era will inevitably become the past. But, what should we miss the present?"
The meaningful words did not express their positions or emotions in a nagging manner, but left a question mark waiting for the reporters to answer.
Before Emily sat down, she asked reflexively, "So what will you miss?"
Lanley did not answer immediately, but pondered for a moment, "I will miss the two brothers Joel and Ethan, George Sland, Stanley Charlson, Heather Cross..."
"I will miss those people who still hold dreams and silence the art, famous and unknown, and make efforts in their own position. I will thank them for their still being there; of course, I will miss the audience and listeners who are willing to pay attention to these people, and thank them for their willingness to slow down."
Lanli's magnetic voice slowly flowed through the microphone, and the entire hall slowly became silent.
In a trance, it seemed as if you could hear the dripping raindrops outside, blocking the noise and noise of the world outside. A small paradise was built around the small town of Cannes. Just like Atlantis, people were still enjoying the happiness and joy brought by the movie.
This heavy rain came at the wrong time, but it was just right.
Carrie hesitated slightly. She seemed not to interrupt the wonderful atmosphere at this moment, but after feeling the gaze of Justin and Joel, she could only breathe a sigh of relief and said to the microphone, "Look, this is the Renli you are not familiar with. He can be very humorous or very boring. Please don't be fooled by his appearance."
The jokes were like a ray of sunshine falling on the snow on the top of the mountain, and the smile on the corner of his mouth slowly rose up.
