After entering the cinema, the title of the movie had already started, and the entire auditorium was dark. Renly bent down, came to the back row, and found a vacant seat and sat down.
"The Magician" is a very special cartoon. Under the circumstance that the lines of the script are becoming more and more boring, this cartoon boldly returns to the origin of the film. There are almost no lines throughout, and the language art of the lens is used completely. Come to describe a story about dreams, about loneliness, about growth, the faint sadness and poetry are like a stream flowing in a rainy night, moving silently.
But in today's film market, such truly sincere and thoughtful works have not received a response from the market, and are becoming more and more marginalized. Just like today, "The Magician" was screened at the Toronto Film Festival. Even though this is a film festival with a strong commercial atmosphere, the communication between film lovers is also an important part, but the attendance rate of the film is only about two-thirds— If it was in an ordinary movie theater, then such a result would be a hit among the hot, but in a film festival full of people, it would seem a bit lonely.
"Sorry." Another audience member walked in, bent over and walked into the auditorium. Renly moved his feet to the side, but the other party accidentally stepped on Renly's toes, so he said in a low voice. Apologizing, and then he sat down next to Renly, but before he could sit still, his pouted ass accidentally sat on the armrest again—pressing Renly's right hand, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
Renly raised his head and glanced at the daredevil in front of him. In the dim light, the long thin face was iconic, with a neatly trimmed beard and a large, well-combed back, and the name blurted out... Ryan Reynolds Here!
Ryan actually showing up in the "Magician" screening room is a jaw-dropping situation. In fact, Ryan is a Canadian. Every year when the Toronto Film Festival is the home ground, he will arrive at the scene to join in. At the unveiling ceremony yesterday, he also made a special trip to cheer for the "Hockey Musical"; but the problem is, "Magic" is such a A work full of artistic style, it really doesn't look like Ryan's liking.
It seems that it was Renly's preconceived notions that were prejudiced against Ryan.
Immediately afterwards, a very important thing flashed in my mind-"Buried Alive", so, will Ryan appear in the premiere of "Buried Alive"? Renly was a little excited and a little nervous, because the original performer in the previous life was likely to sit in the audience and review his performance, which was a strange feeling.
That subtle sense of competition, which only Renly knew, made people feel a little excited. However, Renly did not worry about competition at all, let alone the judgment of his opponents. Only by constantly challenging stronger opponents can he become stronger. What's more, during the audition process, he beat Ryan to win the role by virtue of his strength. So, he was calm.
"Hey." If there is no contact, then forget it. Since the two are sitting next door and there is still a little physical contact, it is better to say hello. So, Renly showed a smile and took the initiative to speak, expressing friendliness.
Ryan was stunned for a while, as if he didn't expect such a situation, he only had time to look at Renly's face at this time, but his reaction was a bit slow, paused for about two seconds, and then twitched the corner of his mouth awkwardly, "Hey. "There was another two-second blank, "Sorry for the mistake just now."
Renly was not new to Ryan's dullness - he was just a nobody, and if it wasn't for being "buried alive", it would be normal for Ryan not to remember him. Of course, there is also a possibility that Ryan has completely forgotten about the "buried alive" thing. He came to Toronto purely to support his hometown. All the above ideas are Renly's self-love, so Ryan didn't recognize Lanly at all. present.
"It's okay." Renly nodded politely in response, then turned around and focused on the big screen again. "The Magician" is a good work, you need to calm down and enjoy it slowly.
The time to watch the movie just flew by quickly, and before you knew it, the movie was finished, the subtitles started to scroll up slowly, the lights in the auditorium slowly turned on, and Renly stood up straight, sending a warm welcome to the movie. applause.
Even if it's not the first time to watch it, it's still as touching as ever. A juggler like a magician has been eliminated by the times, but the protagonist of the story is full of enthusiasm and tirelessly gives performances in various performance venues, standing alone and lonely. With the last sincerity and enthusiasm in his heart. Not just jugglers, but also the older generation of artisans, and countless dream chasers, isn't that the case
Renly moved his hands vigorously, such a movie could always move him without any obstacle, and his inner moving never weakened.
Under the leadership of Renly, the audience also stood up one after another, sending applause. The applause is getting more and more enthusiastic, but people find that the cinema is not full. Such a warm and meaningful excellent film still encountered a snub at the Toronto Film Festival, how ironic, how sad, that kind of faint loneliness makes applause It became more noisy, and the thunderous reverberation reverberated in the auditorium for a long time.

Although this is not the premiere of "The Magician", no film and crew members are present, although this is just a normal movie screening, and the audience can leave the venue by themselves after the movie is over; but no one left the venue early. , a collective standing ovation. The applause lasted for more than seven minutes. In this simplest and most simple way, they expressed their love for the movie and expressed their support for the crew.
"I'm sorry, what I did just now was really rude." There was an apologetic voice coming from the side. This was the third apology - Canadian.
Renly couldn't help but smile and turned his head. He was about to make a joke, but after seeing the other's face, he was stunned—even with his good upbringing and calm composure, he couldn't hide his surprise for a while.
Under the light, the face became clear, and even the melancholy between the eyebrows was very clear, and the person in front of him was obviously not Ryan Reynolds, but Ryan-Gosling - the Ryan Gosling, who made a name for "The Notebook" and proved his acting skills with works such as "Half Nelson" and "Desperate Driving".
To be honest, although both of them are called "Ryan", their temperament and style are far from each other. Ryan's whole person is more sparse, with a hint of cream in his facial features, while Ryan is more gloomy, and his facial features seem to be small. Half a size, not even a typical handsome guy in the traditional sense.
Still, Renly was mistaken.
Ryan caught the anomaly in Renly's expression, "This movie is really exciting, isn't it?" The words gradually quieted down, then paused for a moment, chuckled lightly, and asked directly, "What's wrong, what's wrong? ?"
Renly laughed dumbly, a little embarrassed in his smile, and shook his head, but after hesitating for a moment, he scratched his head and said sincerely, "Sorry, I recognized the wrong person just now."
Ryan was stunned for a while, and then he laughed directly, "It's okay, it's okay. You must have recognized me as Ryan Reynolds, right?" Ryan smiled happily, "A lot of people are wrong. Many people shouted at me on the street: I really like your 'fake marriage', and I can only shrug and answer: Thank you."
Hearing Ryan's relaxed tone, Renly still felt a little embarrassed, "Sorry, this is such a rude behavior." If it wasn't for Ryan, he might not have taken the initiative to say hello in the first place.
"If you don't take the initiative to admit it, then I can't guess it." Ryan said sincerely, this is a fact, and if Renly covered up the past with polite words in social situations, he would naturally have no way of knowing it. Renly's sincerity was more valuable. Seeing the smile on Renly's face, Ryan opened his arms, "Please, please don't tell me, you're Canadian." Renly's accent is obviously British, which means that Renly should not Continue to apologize.
Renly laughed relaxedly, "In front of a Canadian who apologized three times, I would not dare to admit it, otherwise it will be revealed very soon." Renly joked back immediately, causing Ryan to laugh. Seeing that Ryan stepped forward and was about to give himself a hug, Renly reached out to stop Ryan and took a half step back, "I have to tell you, I'm British."
British people don't like hugs, and they don't like them in any situation, especially between strangers. Even the hugs and greetings between acquaintances are only the hugs of the upper body, and the lower body will be separated to express etiquette.
Ryan lowered his eyebrows and the corners of his mouth in disappointment, with a hurt expression on his face, but taking advantage of Renly's uncontrollable laughter, he stepped forward and gave Renly a big hug, "But this is Canada, do as the locals do. Ryan also patted Renly on the back hard, which made Renly both helpless and funny.
Ryan just hugged, and soon let go of his arms, although it was a joke, but it was not too much.
"However, you and Ryan are nothing like you, so why do so many people admit they're wrong?" Renly asked curiously, "I know it's a bit rude..."
"No, not at all." Ryan shook his head with a smile, "First of all, we are all Canadians, you know, in the eyes of Americans, all Canadians are the same;" Renly nodded earnestly, giving Certainly, it made Ryan smile even brighter, "Secondly, we are both named Ryan, not to mention, we do look a bit like from a certain point of view."
Renly spread his hands and said calmly, "I don't think I have a position to refute." Ryan laughed outright again, and then Renly changed the subject, "Do you like this movie too?"
At this time, the audience still did not completely leave, only a small number of people left one after another, and more people couldn't help but start to communicate and discuss. Although many audiences at the Toronto Film Festival came to join in the fun, there was no shortage of experienced film lovers, and there were obviously a lot of "Magician" audiences.
"Yes." Ryan nodded seriously, "You know, there are really fewer and fewer companies that are willing to spend so much time and concentration on making a movie. I'm so glad that I watched this movie. "
