"After the premiere yesterday, I chatted with the editor in chief of the French film scene. He said that this is lansmus' most popular and his best film. I didn't agree with it. As a result, we had a heated argument. Obviously, I prefer lance moss in the dog tooth period

"I agree with that: it's the most acceptable. Because lance moss has repeatedly explained the rules of the whole anti utopian world structure, which is really easy for the audience to accept. "

……

"The response of North American journalists is generally positive. I met a Canadian journalist who said that the humorous effect is full of surprises and is very hopeful to win the prize."

"Well, me too," the reporter of variety show even said. The first part is a bit of Luis Bunuel, which is excellent; The second part is like Francois Truffaut's 451 degree Fahrenheit, but a little bit unstable

"What? Isn't that exaggerating? Bunuel and Trevor are out? That's ridiculous! In my opinion, it is estimated that the impression of Langley is still high. Obviously, the media are willing to be more positive. "

"It can be said that, but I think the role of Langley makes those people more demanding."

……

"I've talked to at least five French journalists, and their views are very similar. They like the first part, but the second part is a little tired. The ending still depends on Langley, which should be the mainstream view in France. "

"The editor in chief of independent telegraph gave a high score of 'a -', which is the biggest surprise of Cannes so far this year. I'm even beginning to wonder if there's a consensus in the American independent film community. "

"Oh? You mean, do you think they're partial to lenley? "

"No, I don't mean that. Don't twist my point. I mean, it's laudable, but 'a -'? Is that exaggeration? "

"... that's what I mean."

"Well, that's what it means. I just think that 'B +' may be good, but 'a -' seems too much. "

"Do you think the Cohen brothers will like it?"

……

Chatter, chatter.

The reporters who were waiting in the villa hall were not able to resist their excitement and curiosity. They began to exchange their opinions during their stay in Cannes. They were praised and criticized, positive and negative, and all kinds of views were surging. From the side, we can feel the unparalleled popularity of "lobster".

From yesterday to today, the "lobster" debate has not been able to find a clear context. On the contrary, it has become more and more intense with the advance of time. It seems that everyone is thinking more and more complicated, and the indescribable vague emotions have spread all the way, so far there is no unity.

Even the media reporters and editors of major professional magazines are watching and discussing with each other, just like trying the water temperature, observing the wind direction of "lobster".

Now, all eyes are on the magazine of Cannes Film Festival, curious about what the ten most representative authoritative media think of the work; Furthermore, what's the future of this work in Cannes this year? Will it continue the strong performance of lenley?

Unconsciously, the focus of the line of sight are gathered over.

However, is lanli as stable as Mount Tai? Both Bradley and Gavin strongly doubt that oggs and other members of the cast can be so calm: it's definitely not so easy to stand on the cusp of the controversy, and the ubiquitous sight and voice is pressure; It has nothing to do with good reviews and bad reviews. It's just a sense of oppression brought by the focus of attention, which can create urgency and anxiety.

"That's a good thing."

That's the answer? Is that too simple?

As if aware of Bradley's and Gavin's surprise, Langley chuckled and had to continue to explain:

"I think that should be the purpose of Eugene. You know, throw out a topic, complete the interpretation in his way, and leave the rest to the audience to think about. The more heated the discussion is, the more it shows that the goal of Eugene has been achieved. If all the praise is one-sided, it will be dull. " Langley shrugged. "I guess it's the best compliment to the movie."

Having said that, just like their own children, every director, actor or screenwriter always hopes that his works can be affirmed.

"Lan Li, don't you ever worry about the comments on your works?" Gavin curiously inquired - two years of blank, some things seem to have begun to blur, and the problems that had not been clarified at the beginning, now come to mind again.

"Is this the beginning of the interview? Or chatting outside Lan Li did not answer, but raised his eyebrow and asked curiously.

Gavin was slightly stunned, and Bradley followed, "what's the difference?"

"No, there's no difference, it's just that I need to wear a mask." Blue Li joked to himself, which made Bradley laugh. Gavin relaxed himself.

Langley's lighthearted humor makes Gavin find the familiar rhythm again. His nervous mood eases down unconsciously and seems to return to the familiar time.

Lanli did not pause, and then replied, "care and worry, that's for sure. After all, this is my work. After careful selection and serious investment, I am looking forward to your feedback. It's not so much about bad reviews as about all reviews. "

"It's been the same until now."

"If someone criticizes my work, I will still think about how to refute it, even if I know the other person is right; Similarly, if someone praises me, I will also think about which parts are real and can continue to carry forward or improve. And so on. "

"It's more a process of self-examination than a debate, because every work is a brand new beginning and challenge. In the process of trying, I will inevitably face many uncertain factors. I may not be able to succeed every time, and I may encounter ups and downs. I need to calm down and look at the work."

Although he is talking about a serious topic, blue Li always keeps a smile on his face, which makes Bradley take the initiative to intervene. "He is stubborn and doesn't admit defeat. Knowing that the other party is right, he seems to want to fight for a breath. But when I come back to myself, I will review myself in silence. Is that right? "

"Yes, that's it." "I cherish every opportunity to exchange feedback. I still remember the first time I attended the Sundance Film Festival, when a news comment could determine the mood of the whole day, and the ups and downs were like a roller coaster. "

"Not at all." Gavin shook his head in surprise.

Lan Li's eyes were full of smiles. "If you can see it, then my housekeeper should ask me to practice basic etiquette again."

Bradley and Gavin are speechless.

"So how do you deal with these mindsets?" Gavin then asked.

"Calm down. Restraint. Introverted. Without any skills, I'll do what you do. I'm not the perfect Mr. Clark Kent. " Lan Li said lightly, "however, with the growth of experience and age, I have gradually realized that many times the negative comments on the Internet are unreasonable and have no context to speak of. If I don't like it, I can overthrow all the efforts of the whole crew with a word of" garbage. "

"Of course, they have the right to express their emotions; Similarly; I also have the right to ignore their existence. " Lanli is still the familiar lanli, "now, I will still pay attention to those media comments, but will not affect my mood because of them. Believe me, I can make my life easier without these negative effects. "

Gavin chuckled. "So, you can still read professional media reviews?"

"Nathan and Roy can read." However, to be honest, the stereotyped reviews are losing their charm. Some people think that film reviews are also a form of art. I think it's worth discussing; And the existence of social networks has given rise to a side branch of art forms. "

Gavin and Bradley looked at each other. At last Bradley asked, "what do you mean?"

"Ha ha, it's obvious that I don't have enough sleep, I don't have enough focus and I have some jumps. You can't keep up with me. I'm sorry for my mistake. " "I mean, film review is also an art form, so we should allow its diversity. It includes negative comments and comments that don't make any sense. "

express volumes!

But... Wait, how did their first question start?

"Have you read today's magazine, Langley?" Gavin finally got back to the point of the question.

"Not yet. Nathan hasn't told me the result. What? You read interesting reviews? " Blue Li's eyes also brightened up.

For a small detail, the focus of lanli's attention is not "good comments" or "bad comments", but "interesting comments". There is no presupposition and no expectation, so naturally there is no worry. This inadvertently revealed mood and attitude is exactly the best performance of lanli's remarks just now.

Gavin pulled a magazine out of his backpack. "Would you like to read it live?"

"Ha ha." Langley took over the magazine from Gavin. "Why does it feel like a variety show ten years ago? It's old-fashioned."

Bradley was also surprised that Gavin had brought the magazine directly. It seemed that he had been ready for a long time. He hoped that lanli could read the magazine on the spot.

"What's the subject of my interview?" Bradley protested strongly.

Gavin looked round at Bradley, very nervous.

Lan Li is able to smile, "what's the theme of your interview?"

"How do you feel about this comedy performance? What did you get? Do you want to continue to play comedy in the future? After winning the second Oscar at the beginning of this year, your acting career has reached a new peak. How do you feel? Is it different from the first time? What's next? What else is the goal? Are you looking forward to another breakthrough? Rumor has it that you've been negotiating a return to the west end, and that you've been working with Paul Walker on a comedy film, which is right? Do you have any special feelings about your acting career? "
