1719 Worry about gain and loss
The comprehensive review of 24 professional media scored 95 points. This is the reputation performance of the "Explosive Drummer" debut. It has easily become Sundance's number one hit this year, and officially announced the prelude of the 2014 masterpiece election. This year's remarkable masterpieces will be released one after another. Sundance is obviously the first platform. Lanli, who has just made history in the awards season and won the Oscar nomination for four consecutive years, once again seized the lead and became the leader.
Regardless of the debate on social networking platforms, it is certain that the praise and affirmation of professional media have begun to roll in a sensation.
Under tremendous pressure, Lanli once again dedicated her performance at the "Best Career" level and deservedly became the most attention focus of the movie "Explosive Drummer". Further, Lanli served as a film producer for the first time and handed over a brilliant report card, once again continuing Lanli's picky vision in the selection of works, which also made industry insiders look forward to the "Night Walker" being filmed and produced.
The symposium where Lan Li was a guest had just triggered a craze. It has not yet completely calmed down. The "explosive drummer" triggered another new trend. It has wings in the small Parker city and has become popular in a vast way. Discussions about this work can be heard everywhere in the cinema screening halls, coffee houses, or street benches.
"I personally like jk-Simmons' performance more and more powerful."
"I think JK's performance is more extroverted and released, which means it is easier to like, because his excellence can be felt directly by the eyes; but Lanli's performance is more worthy of savoring. The gaps left for the audience to slowly reminisce are actually hidden in the details of his performance. I think it is indeed better than 'gravity' and 'Drunk Folk'."
"What?'gravity' is an insurmountable peak, okay?"
"Impossible! The performance of the 'Drunk Village Folk Song' is even better, now..."
"Are you sure you know what you're talking about? How could the 'Drunk Folk' be better than 'gravity'?"
"Wait, wait. We are clearly discussing the 'burst drummer', why did it suddenly..."
Leaving the elevator and entering the hotel lobby, you can see several movie fans arguing with red faces beside the elevator door, each of them strikingly and expressing their views unswervingly. Because they were too intense and too devoted, the protagonist, who had not found the topic, stood by and listened with relish.
"Lanli! Lanli! Here! Lanli!"
Not far away, a cheerful and excited shout came over, interrupting Renli's thoughts, turning his head in the direction of the sound, and then seeing Damien Chazerre standing up and waving his hands vigorously, sitting at the same table next to him was JK Simmons.
Damien waved his arm hard, but did not see Renli moving his footsteps. While worried that his voice might disturb the silence of other customers, he was anxious to hope that Renli could come quickly. After weighing the pros and cons, he simply stood up and trotted towards Renli quickly.
This is not like Damien Chazerre at all.
Usually, Damien is a low-key and silent otaku. He is not good at speaking and socializing. He always tries his best to eliminate his presence in many people. If he is not careful, he may completely forget his existence. Don’t talk loudly, even taking the initiative to talk will not necessarily respond.
But today...
Damien left the cafe and walked towards Lanli quickly. She showed a sense of briskness and excitement, but it could be seen from the inconsistent physical movements that this was not the way he usually used to. "Lianli, hurry up, hurry up!" Damien lowered his voice, "The media commented!" The brisk expression between his eyebrows revealed a childish look.
In fact, Damien was only twenty-eight years old, only four years older than Renly.
Lan Li said with a light head, and didn't say much. She followed Damien's footsteps and walked towards the direction of the cafe. The fans who were discussing fiercely still did not discover the existence of Lan Li and Damien, and were completely immersed in their own world. Naturally, they missed the opportunity to have a face-to-face conversation with the main creators of the crew.
When he walked to the cafe, Lan Li could see Simmons's concentrating expression at a glance. He was holding a newspaper in his hand and was reading seriously. He was not browsing roughly, but reading word by word, revealing his nervousness and dedication to his eyebrows that were moving closer to the middle.
Although he saw Damien go to greet Renli just now, it was obvious that Simmons did not expect the two of them to come so quickly. After a half-beat slower, he raised his head, cleared his throat, and said hello in a calm manner. Then, while Renli ordered, he quickly lowered his head and scanned all the words he had just read. Then, folded the newspaper and placed it on the table, pretending that nothing had happened, and looked at Renli with a smile.
Care, but pretend not to care.
Simmons has been in Hollywood for nearly twenty years. In order to maintain his acting dream, he has performed all kinds of strange roles in small theaters across North America, and has also tried countless strange jobs to barely make ends meet, just to enable himself to play small roles in different movies. "Twenty years" is already very difficult to say it out, let alone experience it personally.
"The Breaking Drummer" is Simmons's first ever work in the spotlight, and his performance has truly shined.
After the premiere last night, Simmons finally enjoyed the taste of the bitterness and sweetness in the audience; but after a night of precipitation, Simmons was inevitably worried about gains and losses, worried that the comments of the professional media were far lower than expected, so he had to continue to comfort himself, "Don't look forward to it too much."
Today, media comments were finally released. On the one hand, Simmons couldn't help but feel curiosity and expectations; on the other hand, Simmons was worried about revealing his uneasiness and uneasiness, especially in front of two young men, Renly and Damien. This contradictory mood made Simmons a little anxious.
Fortunately, Damien's excitement snatched away all eyes, which allowed Simmons to find a brief sense of security.
"Have you read the comment?" Damien's eyes widened, his face full of expectations. Before the waiter turned around and left, he could not wait to ask.
Lan Li laughed silently and shook her head gently, "I'm waiting for you."
Lanli still remembers that when "Love Mad" came to Sundance, his mood was always tense and excited, swaying between uneasiness and excitement. The feeling of expectation cannot be described in words; but gradually, as the experience has become rich, the mood has become calmer. It is not that he doesn't care, but that he can view media comments with a more calm and stable attitude. Even now, Lanli is still curious about the direction and focus of media comments.
"'New York Times', full mark!" Damien's eyes shone with excitement.
Sundance is the top stage that Damien dreams of. When filming the "Explosive Drummer", Damien said that his only idea was to catch up with Sundance in January this year, hoping to be reviewed by the audience here and show his talents.
Now that his dream has finally come true, Damien is naturally excited.
"The performance of Simmons and Hall makes watching this work a torment but also a pleasure." Damien opened the newspaper, lowered her voice, read the New York Times film review word by word, and then shook her head gently, revealing a hint of pride, "This is what I hope to achieve."
Damien was never prepared to make "Explosion Drummer" a work that everyone likes. The torment of stomach burning and even physical discomfort is the effect Damien pursues. From the character setting of Fletcher and Andrew to the breakthrough shot of polishing skills, he was always looking for the torment and torture texture, and finally presented it through the camera.
Now that the New York Times has captured this delicate texture, Damien is naturally very proud.
Lanley raised her eyebrows gently and cast her eyes at Simmons, "It seems that our work has not been in vain."
Simmons tried to say something, but found that his throat was so dry that he didn't make a sound for the first time. He coughed twice before he spoke, "You should read today's media comments. All the media are praising you, and your performance has won unanimous praise."
"Are you sure? I thought all the focus would be on you." It was not polite, but Lan Li's eyes revealed sincerity, he was serious.
Whether in the previous life or this life, Lanley always believed that the explosive point of "explosion drummer" was maintained on Simmons. The explosive and shocking performance was vividly reflected in the role of Fletcher, which could indeed bring an unparalleled viewing experience. At the same time, this is also one of the most appreciated performance types in the Oscars season. Simmons reached the peak of his career with this role.
Simmons could sense the sincerity in Lan Li's eyes. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then his expression became a little awkward. He wanted to make some polite words, but after thinking about it, the words that came to his mouth changed. "You just made me feel ashamed. I was just jealous because the media was generally praising you, and I couldn't help but look for my name in every corner of the comment."
Lan Li was not modest, but just spread her hands, "The impact of the star aura is not only bad, but also a little good." His calm look made Simmons chuckled, and then he continued to tease, "I promise that in the future publicity period, I will shift the focus to you. Please be sure to be prepared."
Chapter completed!
