Chapter 1064： Forever golden boy

\"&　　 What is Robert Redford’s influence in Hollywood?

Someone summed it up like this, he is the originator of the American-style blond beautiful man, he changed people's view of blond hair. especially. Stereotypes of things-make blond men become **** too. Synonymous with sense; he is the defender of American liberal moral values, his maturity, his wisdom, and his courage have influenced Hollywood for two decades; he relied on the Western movie "The Tiger and Leopard King (...and.the...) in 1969. It was a sensation, and he played "." 15 years later. He founded the "Sundance Film Festival (..., which has since changed the pattern of Hollywood.

It is no exaggeration to say that Brad Pitt's rise to the road is almost imitating Robert's road, he is even known as the second-generation heir to the American-style blond boy.

Robert spent his entire life without an Oscar winner's award. Although he won the nomination by "deception" as early as 1973, the most glorious moment of his life was relying on the movie "Ordinary People" to dominate the 1981 film. Fifty-third Oscar.

However, in Robert’s career, from the leading star in the seventies to the top producer in the eighties, to the defender of independent films after the nineties, his thirty-year acting career can definitely be said to be from all aspects. Affect the development of Hollywood.

Although for many people-especially those who came into contact with movies after the 21st century, Robert is not a familiar name, at least not as good as Steven Spielberg and Francis Ford Coppola. The name is familiar; but in the huge machine of Hollywood, Robert is a very important part. Just like Steven and David Geffen and others created DreamWorks, Robert almost relied on his own power to help Sundance. Held up. His influence is evident.

Robert spent almost his entire life running the Sundance Film Festival and wanted to promote independent films. Until 2014, before Hugo crossed the road, he was still in an independent film "All.is." Here dedicated a spectacular performance. Ironically, the so-called independent films are actually aimed at resisting the system of major Hollywood studios and their rigid genres. However, due to the lack of funds and the lack of production and distribution channels for the films, they have to accept the bottleneck of development. The attention from Hollywood makes Sundance a platform for delivering independent masterpieces to Hollywood.

This is really a contradictory situation.

On the one hand, we must boycott Hollywood, but on the other hand we cannot leave Hollywood.

But having said that, this is also a question that all film festivals, all awards ceremonies, and even all works of art must consider: how should the balance between art and commerce be mastered?

For the Eleventh Sundance Film Festival in 1995, they need the attention of Hollywood, they need a platform for independent films to be displayed, and they need a way for independent filmmakers to make ends meet while creating art. , The most important thing is that they need an opportunity for the world to truly understand the charm of independent films.

So Hugo came.

Don't say that Robert and Hugo have no personal grievances. Even if they do, Robert is definitely willing to fight for the Sundance Film Festival. Therefore, Robert appeared at the premiere of "Before Sunrise".

"Hey, boy." Robert gave Hugo a big hug, which made Hugo a little uncomfortable.

Although Hugo and Robert seem to have had a lot of confrontations before this, in fact, this is their first official meeting. In the past, when dealing with second-line and third-line actors like Hugo, Robert did not need to come forward; but later, Hugo rose too fast, but had no intersection with Robert.

"So, welcome to Sundance." Robert said with a microphone with a smile. He looked at the surging crowd in front of him. "This year's welcome ceremony is exceptionally grand." Robert said meaningfully, causing the scene again. There was a lot of noise, "I heard that this movie was written by you yourself? So, how would you introduce this movie?"

Hugo was a little surprised that Robert would come to interview himself in person, but he did not think too much. In fact, although the media has been hyping the competition between him and Brad recently, the memory of Robert has long been accompanied by Trey. The silence of the West disappeared, and Hugo was a relieved person.

"Uh... boring movie?" Hugo looked back at Charlize and Richard beside him, showing an apologetic smile, and she saw the two people's astonished expressions, which made the scene burst into laughter. , Even Robert was quite surprised, "Why?"

No one would call his movie "boring", even if the movie is really boring, the crew will go crazy and say the movie is wonderful.

Hugo himself chuckled slightly, "Because the movie...it is, uh, boring." Hugo thought about it, but still used the same vocabulary. Now Robert couldn't help laughing, Charlize and Both Richards wrote helplessly on their faces, "I believe that everyone walking into the cinema will have similar thoughts to me, but I think this is a movie worth savoring slowly. Maybe the movie is really boring, but In fact, we have repeatedly conceived many lines and scenes. Maybe you can find the voice in your own heart from those scenes that seem to be nothing special."

"Very well, if this is your strategy, I must admit that you succeeded. You succeeded in attracting my attention. I am a little curious about this movie." Robert said with a smile.

Hugo spread his hands and expressed helplessness. In fact, objectively speaking, "before sunrise" is indeed boring in the eyes of many people. This is a very special movie. People who like it especially like it, and people who hate it dismiss it. But in fact, this is a film that needs to be calmed down and tasted. It is not only the interaction between the lines and the protagonist, but Richard’s shots also have profound meaning, just like the slowly flowing Seine. It was plain and even the same, but under the shimmering river, there was never a repetitive part.

"So, Richard, do you agree with Hugo?" Robert is not a reporter. He will not keep all his eyes on Hugo, so he immediately handed the microphone to Richard.

Richard didn't expect the topic to be thrown to himself so soon, he was actually stunned, "Uh..." and then pursed his lips, suddenly realized that if he wanted to find a suitable vocabulary to describe his movie, he There is only one answer, "I think it's really boring."

"Oh..." There was a wailing voice at the scene, where someone promoted their movie like this, as if they were saying, "Hey, you guys don't come in to watch the movie, or you will regret it." This is really unusual.

Richard realized this after finishing talking, scratched his head in annoyance, and then saw Hugo projecting the "I'm just talking" eyes, which made Richard laugh awkwardly, standing in the middle. Charlize rolled his eyes helplessly.

Robert caught Charlize's eyes at once, and then passed the microphone to her, "Then do you have any different comments? Young lady?"

"I think in order to be consistent, my answer is ‘boring’ the most appropriate, right?" Charlize’s witty answer caused immediate applause at the scene, which made Charlize a little uncomfortable. Last time she attended the premiere of "Schindler's List", she was not the protagonist, but today she is. Charlize knew that she had to start getting used to this feeling—to be honest, it didn't feel bad. "Actually I think what Hugo meant is that this movie is like a glass of warm water."

"Warm water?" Robert asked curiously.

Hugo looked at Charlize with a smile, and Charlize could understand what he meant. "In fact, many people don't like warm water, because they don't think it tastes good, they would choose orange juice and Coke, but they are absolutely unwilling to choose warm water, because warm water...too boring." After Charlize finished speaking, he glanced at Hugo. She immediately saw Hugo’s smile. She glared at Hugo helplessly, and immediately went on to say, “But in fact, if you taste this glass of water carefully, you can feel the sweetness, it’s warm water. The original taste, as long as you are willing to calm down and feel it, you will experience different things."

"So you mean the movie is a piece of warm water?" Robert came to the conclusion directly.

In fact, Charlize's explanation is very clever and correct. But it sounds weird to be said by Robert, because in the film review, a movie "Wen Boishui" is a derogatory term. Of course, "boring" is even more so.

Charlize was so stunned, she really didn't know how to answer. At this time Hugo took the conversation, "You know, in fact, every audience will have different feelings. Maybe I want everyone to feel the aftertaste of warm water, but everyone tastes like soft drinks or whiskey. I also Can't say'no', can't you?"

Hugo's secret exchange concept not only relieved Charlize, but also made the scene laugh ~ www.novelhall.com~ warm water and whiskey, the difference is really big.

Robert also laughed blankly, "Then let us wait and see."

The current Sundance Film Festival premiere is very simple, there is no reporter questioning session, no gossip session, just a simple question and answer interview, and then take pictures, and then wait for everyone to enter. Because the movie is always the most important part.

When everyone began to file in, Robert gave Hugo a hug again. This time without microphone amplification, he officially said to Hugo, "Welcome to Sundance." Although this sentence was just now He has already said it, but this time the meaning is obviously different.

Hugo looked at the smile on Robert’s face. He could feel Robert’s dedication to the Sundance Film Festival. That enthusiasm was also the most admirable part. So Hugo smiled and said, "I hope my movie It's not here to smash the scene." Robert couldn't help but smile at this sentence.

Compared to Brad, Hugo's maturity and ease, humor and casualness left a deep impression on Robert. (To be continued, provided by 8296929 (Diandian Hanzhi). If you like this work, you are welcome to read it and vote for the work. Your support is the biggest motivation for me to continue to create!).
