Another year at the Cannes Film Festival is over.
Her favorite movie failed to win the Palme d'Or, but she still won the second place. With a long sigh of relief, Emily showed a big smile again.
The whole media center is celebrating wantonly, if the result is perfect, no one can be picky, and the film that you like successfully reaches the Palme d'Or, the scene of high fives, clapping, and whistling cheers is really too lively. At the party scene, even Emily's mood brightened.
Mark took the initiative to come over and said loudly in the midst of the noise, "I'm a little regretful now, I should have watched another 'Drunken Country Ballad' yesterday, and if I want to watch it again, I have to wait until the movie is released. I don't know when."
"Haha, I watched it yesterday." Emily blinked and lifted her chin proudly, "and 'Adele's Life', re-read both works. I still prefer Levy Well. It seems to be farther away from us, but it is actually closer to the inner emotions; and Adele is the opposite, maybe because I have not experienced such a strong love."
"Simonna said the last sentence, right?" Mark immediately understood, and after receiving Emily's affirmative answer, he then pointed to himself, "because she said it to me too."
That's another movie blogger, and "Adele's Life" is her top choice for the Palme d'Or, and for this, there have been many arguments and discussions between them.
Mark and Emily both laughed.
"I heard that Renly's next work is going to Venice, and I'm already looking forward to it now." Mark then revealed a brand new message.
Immediately, the others next to him turned around and started chatting with each other, their eyes flickering with excitement that couldn't wait.
…
The 66th Cannes Film Festival officially came to an end. "Adele's Life" won the Palme d'Or, with unanimous praise and praise from the media. Two trophies for the best actor, the overall evaluation is still the second best work this year.
However, all the attention and focus can not be compared with Renly-Hall.
After Berlin, Renly once again conquered Cannes and has become the most representative new generation of actors on the entire European continent. From North America to Europe, the young actor has continued his strong performance perfectly, and It has received rave reviews among professionals and the film industry.
So, what's next
Renly is now at an unimaginable peak. No one can make more predictions about his career. Where will he end? Where is his future going? Venice? Tony Award? Golden Globes? A second Oscar? Then, after that
This is also the origin of the so-called "Little Golden Man's Curse". With Renly's existing achievements, it is almost impossible for him to make more breakthroughs in performance, so he will definitely need to open up more territory in terms of box office and business, but the probability of failure and the consequences of commercial films are often unbearable. Superstars such as George Clooney and Nicole Kidman have all experienced the same failure.
More importantly, Renly was not yet twenty-four.
If Renly wants to, he can have a career of fifteen years or more. This is an extremely long period of time. After reaching the peak too early, it is easy to get lost. Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, etc. became famous at a young age. Many of the great actors in the series have experienced a period of confusion and silence. After falling to the bottom, it is extremely difficult to get back to the top.
So, will Renly make the same mistake
However, no one can predict, and no one can help, this is a subject for Renly, and only time can give the answer.
But to take a step back, no one could have predicted the current situation when Renly started filming "The Pacific War". So, who can accurately predict Renly's future
Instead of worrying about what hasn't happened here, let's celebrate what's happening now:
Party time!
Leaving the Lumiere Hall, Renly couldn't move at all. The guests who came to congratulate him and the reporters who came to interview him surrounded him on three floors and three floors, even if he stepped forward despite all the difficulties and dangers. , they also followed closely, unable to get rid of it, unable to break through and leave, and ultimately had no choice but to be trapped in place.
Fortunately, Andy Rogers had been prepared and prepared for this long ago. Twelve guards were dispatched collectively, and with the help of the security staff of the main committee of Cannes, they "killed" one piece by piece. The bloody road, protecting Renly from the movie palace, was surrounded and chased by a surging crowd, and got into a low-key black coupe.
"Renly, may I ask..."
"… the next plan."
“…feelings…”
“… Cohen…”
"Performance… "
“… Spielberg…”
Fragmented voices of questioning still clapped outside the car window, incessantly in the ears, filling the entire carriage with a roar. The atmosphere was gone, and it was back in the world of Vanity Fair.
"How is it? How do you feel?" A polite question came from the driver in the driver's seat.
The corner of Renly's mouth rose slightly, "I still prefer Berlin."
Sitting in the back seat, Ren Li looked through the rearview mirror and could see a pair of young and energetic eyes. He was wearing a dark blue tunic suit and a matching door boy hat. Glancing at the rear-view mirror, he quietly looked at the passenger who had just gotten into the car through the light refraction.
"Curtis?" Renly's voice rose slightly.
"Yes, Master Renly, do you remember me?" Curtis-Martin, who was sitting in the driver's seat, showed a look of joy, and shifted his sitting position a little, bursting out from the inside out. The excitement cannot be suppressed at all.
Renly laughed dumbly, "Is your uncle okay?"
Curtis-Martin's uncle is Richard-Martin, the current driver of the Hall family. Generally speaking, the main members of the family of the hereditary nobles are hereditary, which guarantees the entire long history; but because in modern society, the power of nobles is gradually weakening, and fewer and fewer people are willing to continue to take job duties in the family. This bond is being broken.
Curtis is a typical example.
Curtis was very young, and if Renly remembered correctly, he should have just turned twenty this year. As a child, Renly and Curtis met several times, but Richard's brother, Curtis's father, did not want his children to go down this road, and later moved to York with Curtis, and later Just cut off contact.
I didn't expect that it would be such an occasion to meet again.
"He's very good." Curtis said briskly, "but he didn't know that I came to Cannes. It was Master Arthur who asked me if I was interested in this job, and I nodded and agreed immediately."
The words were a little messy, but the information was faintly revealed. Renly's ears caught it in an instant.
"God, it's really crazy here, isn't it? I'm sorry, I've never left England, I think, you're used to it? It's all incredible..."
Chatteringly, Curtis excitedly recounted what he had seen in the past three days, and the expression between his eyebrows rose.
Renly didn't respond, but he didn't stop. He turned his head to look out the window and the night scene of the azure coast flew by quickly, and his mood slowly settled down. After about twenty minutes, the car had left the city center of Cannes and finally entered the suburbs. In one of the manor houses, after passing the carved iron gate, and driving in the garden for about five minutes, it stopped at the gate of the main house.
"Master Ren Li, congratulations!"
Curtis was still beaming, sticking his head out of the driver's seat, congratulating Renly, and then he released the footbrake contentedly and slowly walked away from sight.
Under the guidance of the housekeeper, Renly met the target on the garden balcony in the backyard. Arthur Hall, Edith Hall, and Andre Hamilton.
"This is your brand new location?" Renly cast his gaze at Arthur, sat comfortably in an empty chair, and whispered to the butler, "Soda, and a glass of whiskey."
Arthur looked at Renly. "Why are you asking that?"
"Because of Curtis," Renly said simply. "You finally made up your mind?"
Arthur finally decided to form his own team, step by step to get rid of the shackles of the surname "Hall", use his talents, truly become independent, and create a career in the upper class. Not just organising banquets and parties for the aristocracy, but also opening doors to business for everyone.
Of course, Arthur is different from Edith and Renly.
He will not completely cut off the influence of "Hall", and the business will still be aimed at the nobles, as well as the Hall family; but, it was always just a name hanging there before, without formally forming his own business, and more It's like wearing the name of "Hall", doing some things as an amateur, and now finally officially opening a company.
As for why Renly found out, the reasons are very simple: first, Arthur really came to Cannes; second, Arthur changed the driver, no longer the one appointed by George, but the direct line he dug up himself. , Curtis also said that Richard did not know he became Arthur's driver, which remains a secret.
If it is just based on the first two points, then Renly is just a simple guess, because there are many reasons for Curtis to appear here; but this manor, and Andre, further confirms Renly idea.
That's why Renly asked this question.
"How did you see that?" Arthur showed a frightened expression.
But without waiting for Renly to answer, Andre stretched out his right hand and said jokingly, "I told you, he can definitely guess it. I'm willing to accept the bet!"
Burning text
Edith also rolled her eyes and shook her head gently, "To be honest, did Curtis leak the details to you in advance? I knew that he admired you very much since he was a child!"
