Obviously, this is not the first time that lanli has been bathed in the aura of praise, nor will it be the last time that the "pop drummer" once again focuses all his eyes on lanli.

"Best of the year!"

Comments from the "Hollywood Reporter" did not hesitate to give the highest praise to lanli. Among the many wonderful performances, lanli was still chosen. Film critic Michael Phillips even wrote a long article on lanli's performance to show his love.

"Both the Methodists and the Expressionists are performing methods, and for every actor, skills are indispensable, because skills can help actors find the most correct and effective way to perform; But also, skills must be given up, because skills may limit the performance of actors as a framework. Naturally, how to find a balance between skill and spirituality has become the subject of every actor.

Among the "pop drummers", Langley Hall's performance stripped off the framework of all skills, as if returning to the state of a toddler, showing the most primitive and vigorous performance state. After being perfectly integrated with the characters, you can feel the smell of blood between every move, which is almost rough and simple, Throw out all the emotions in a way of throwing with all your strength and hit every audience hard.

At the same time, Langley hall cleverly hides the emotional level, the eyes of the characters and the aftertaste space in the performance point. A look, an action or a back figure - or even a blank space - can point to the end, but make the finishing point to drag the audience into the corner world, and truly appreciate the truth behind the bloody world, The afterrhyme of reflection is hidden behind the disgusting excitement, waiting for discovery.

Such a natural performance seems to be effortless. It really makes performance an art, and watching it becomes an enjoyment.

From the perspective of acting skills, the "pop drummer" is not the most complicated one in Langley Hall's career; But from the overall performance, the "pop drummer" has witnessed another transformation and progress of Langley hall, which really makes people feel his maturity in the performance level.

Is this the best part of Lanley Hall's career? Everyone has their own views and opinions. Personally, I am looking forward to the next work and the next role of lanli; So, is this the best of the year in 2014? No doubt

Michael Phillips's comments have really pushed Langley to an incredible peak. Both inside and outside of the words, Langley has been divided into another level of actors, which can be regarded as an old actor of the palace level. This has been separated from the praise of the ordinary level, and can be regarded as a supreme honor.

As the most authoritative and professional magazine in the industry, Hollywood Reporter's film reviews are definitely not groundless. It just proves that after the peak of two consecutive works last year, Hollywood's attitude towards lenley has changed substantially. They finally begin to ignore lenley's "Youth", It is to treat Lan Li as a "temple master" in a real sense.

There is no doubt that lanli has become the most popular candidate in this year's award season. To be exact, in the past few years, lanli's name has always been seen among the most popular candidates, just like Meryl Streep. As long as she plays, she will be competitive.

It's not news anymore.

More importantly, from the "Hollywood Reporter" to the "New York Times" and then to the "empire", all the professional authoritative media have unanimously pushed Lan Li to the top, and pushed Lan Li to the position of the leader in the battle for movie king with incomparable strength, becoming the most popular candidate so far in this year's award season.

But for Harvey Weinstein, it's not good news.

From Weinstein pictures' acquisition of film distribution rights in the first half of this year, we can see that Harvey's main goal this year is to lock in the leading role position - of course, the main goal is the best film and the best director, but Harvey's strategy is obviously tilted above the single award.

Obviously, after the double impact of "gravity" and "drunken folk", Harvey also realized the change of Hollywood wind direction

Now lanli's reputation has reached a new peak. If we can't stop lanli from becoming the second film king in time, then lanli's position as "master of the palace" will be really implemented. By then, lanli will be able to sit on a level with Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep and others, which also means that those ordinary slanders and slanders will be very popular, Lan Li's position can no longer be shaken; Those simple means and tricks can no longer hurt lanli's reputation.

This is definitely not what Harvey would like to see.

Harvey understands that he needs to stop lenley as soon as possible, either this year or next year, all of which will probably happen in the next two years - the most likely is this year, which can be seen from the selection of lenley's works. Next are "Jurassic world" and "Grand Theft Auto one". Next year's lenley's absence from the award season is a big probability event, And this year, there is a "cracker drummer" in Sundance... This is the simplest math problem.

As a result, Harvey also aimed at this year, starting from Sundance and extending all the way to the end of the year. One or two can be seen from Weinstein's production and distribution list.

Among them, there are only two works that lock the position of the heroine, "Princess of Morocco" starring Nicole Kidman and "big eyes" led by Amy Adams.

Harvey had high hopes for the former, but unfortunately, when his work landed in Cannes Film Festival in May, it was criticized and buried in an instant. It was difficult for him to make a difference in the award season. Then Harvey took the work to visit several other film festivals, and the reputation was in a slump. Finally, Harvey gave up the work, Instead of choosing cinema distribution, it plays directly on the TV channel and on the small screen.

The latter is Weinstein film's only outstanding achievement in the heroine position this year - it has not landed in any film festival yet, and how to release it in the future is still a question mark.

But there are four works that lock the position of the hero, and each one is highly anticipated.

French biographical film "Yves Saint Laurent", which was released in France at the beginning of the year, was highly praised. At the end of the year, it won eight nominations above the French Caesar Award. Pierre niney, the leading actor, is a hot choice for the film king.

The highly acclaimed "Saint Vincent" at the Toronto Film Festival is undoubtedly the black horse of this year's comedy. Bill Murray is one of the college's favorite comedians, and the nomination for the Golden Globe Award has been guaranteed.

"Imitation game" won the people's Choice Award in Toronto, which has made the work the first group in the best picture competition of the award season. The biography theme undoubtedly makes the Oscar prospect of this work more bright, and Benedict Cumberbatch is also popular, Undoubtedly, he is the most attractive and influential candidate in this year's award season.

"The theory of everything", which also premiered in Toronto, is Harvey's trump card. Weinstein film has set up the whole production team to build a luxury lineup around Eddie Redman. Harvey has high hopes for the best film, best director, best actress and other important parts of the work, and the best actor is the most important, Biography and disabled hero will undoubtedly be a heavy weapon in the award season.

From the current situation, the four works go hand in hand. All the four leading actors are in the first group in the competition for the best actor in the award season. On the whole, "imitation game" has more competitiveness in the best film, while "Eve Saint Laurent" and "theory of everything" have more opportunities in the best actor. But Weinstein pictures has no intention to give up for the time being, The four works work at the same time, waiting for time to advance and gradually find the best one to stand out.

Harvey is fully prepared, not only for the purpose of sniping lanli, but also for the purpose of winning the best actor Oscar this year. This is even seen by Harvey as the key turning point of Weinstein's development plan in the next five years!

Until "pop drummer" was shown, everything developed according to Harvey's plan, and everything was under control. Although Warner Bros. was pushing "Star Trek", as a commercial film, the overall competitiveness of this work was slightly inferior, and Harvey was still able to control the situation. Then, the variable appears.

Of course, Harvey must admit that he doesn't mean to underestimate Langley. He also knows that the appearance of "pop drummer" is bound to change the pattern of award season; But the reality still makes it hard for Harvey to control his emotions——

Lanli didn't even make any effort to publicize or conduct public relations. It was just the opening of the first screening. He had already easily led the battle for the film king, and lightly surpassed the three biographical films of "imitation game", "theory of all things" and "Yves Saint Laurent", So far, it has become the highest voice in the battle of movie king.

Even if he is psychologically prepared, it's hard to calm down: according to common sense, biographical movies are the heavyweight of the award season, which is the reason why Harvey has put all his energy on biographical movies. He has been familiar with them for a long time; But now, with a movie of "College band", Langley easily takes the lead?

What the hell is this?

Harvey was so angry! Obviously, "Hall effect" has become a superstition that can not be ignored in Hollywood, for which Harvey just wants to roll his eyes.

However, Harvey is no longer a rookie. Emotional fluctuation is one thing, and crisis management is another. How can Harvey, who has been through a lot of battles, panic because of such a small thing?
