Facing the aggressiveness of the reporters, Renly only felt agitated for a while, and was about to bow his head to break through and leave, but when he heard the reporter's question, Renly was amused, and couldn't help but stop, the more he thought about it, the more interesting it became, "Excuse me, are you? Where did you hear it?" The expression full of interest, not only was not angry, but showed an expression of anticipation, and looked at the location of the reporter who asked the question.

It wouldn't be surprising if it was angry, or asking for guilt, but Renly didn't play the cards according to common sense, and the reporter who asked the question was stunned, but this was not a one-on-one ring match, but a three More than a dozen reporters fought against Renly alone, and the reporter next to him quickly answered with a loud voice, "'US Weekly'."

Renly suddenly realized that, as expected, the media still resorted to taking out of context, which they are best at, "I suggest that you ask questions after reading the entire article, and don't put the title of 'Uncrowned King' under the public's feet, after all, your newspapers It's not sold in supermarkets."

Supermarket tabloids, this is a proper noun, referring to newspapers that are given away for free in supermarkets. Housewives may use them to put food baskets, and then flip through them after dinner to look for discount coupons and the like. This kind of tabloid is a typical synonym for "unreliable gossip". It is not so much a news report as a ghost novel. Any gossip is directly disclosed without verification, which is incredible and amazing.

Renly's remarks just now clearly meant something. He smiled calmly, the gentleman was polite, but the sharpness of his words remained undiminished, stabbed at every reporter present.

"So you're denying that you said something similar?" Another reporter yelled, and the other reporters couldn't help rolling their eyes. Renly couldn't understand what Renly meant, and it wasn't his own thing to ask such a question. humiliation

Sure enough, Renly looked at the reporter who asked the question with a smile on his face, "I never said what I said just now. Is it because my accent is too vague that you can't understand it? Or is it that you haven't learned the language well enough to understand it?"

This time Cornell-McGregor finally realized what it means to swear without swearing, especially Renly's standard London accent, like a professor at Cambridge University, but the content of his words is both elegant and sharp. Connell was stunned for a moment. To make matters worse, the surrounding reporters all cast contemptuous glances, as if they can't wait to distance themselves from him, and that sense of shame burns from the soles of their feet.

"But you said in an interview that in '127 hours', the director is the biggest contributor!" One reporter fell, and another stood up, one after the other, asking questions without leaving any breath at all space.

"Indeed, that's what I think, is there a problem?" Renly refuted it without any hesitation. The reporters couldn't help but think about it - Renly's point of view is indeed correct, and so are the opinions of many film critics. , gave Danny Ball more praise.

However, it always feels a little strange that the same words are spoken by an actor, doesn't it? But reporters could not refute.

Cornell felt a sigh of relief in his chest, and asked again, "What about being buried alive? Do you think you're the biggest contributor?"

This topic shows the level, not only sharp, but also further intensifies the contradiction. The reporters looked at Renly excitedly, which made Cornell a little proud, especially seeing Renly pursing the corners of his mouth and thinking seriously, the sullenness in Cornell's heart was finally vented.

"Does this question of yours mean, everyone agrees, that 'Buried Alive' is a successful work?" Renly's answer made Cornell's leisurely joy stuck in his throat, and the other reporters We were also a little surprised. Thinking about it carefully, the use of the word "hero" itself refers to the biggest contributor to success, so Renly's rhetorical question is also logical, "Then, thank you, I am willing to accept such praise."

Admit it, Renly admitted it so frankly!

Cornell couldn't help but clenched his fist and became excited, so next, interviewing Rodrigo, the director of "Buried Alive", does that mean that Renly and Rodrigo are about to start fighting? However, Cornell immediately found that the colleagues around him were not excited, and the overheated brain calmed down a little, and then Cornell responded:

The opinions of major film critics have reached a consensus, and the biggest contributor to "Buried Alive" is indeed Renly; even Rodrigo was frank at the premiere that Renly is the greatest guarantee for the success of the work.

In other words, although Renly conceded the compliments, and seemed a little arrogant and unpleasant, there was nothing to criticize. Just like in sports, the frenzied celebration of the winner is annoying and no one can refute it, because that's the winner's right.

"King Kong Is Not Bad Dazhai Master"

Cornell felt tightness in his chest again. Looking at Renly, who was calm in front of him, an indescribable feeling of irritability struck his heart.

"Renly, then, who do you think is the better performance between yourself and James?" Another reporter immediately asked, the same question was teased at James's place, and then the Renly in front of him was teased. How will it be? The reporters watching the show were all nervous at this moment. Whether this bloody drama can continue depends on this moment.

Renly shrugged and said lightly, "I think everyone should choose James, so I think it would be too hypocritical for me to continue to choose James. Isn't it?"

So that means... Renly chose him too? Just like James.

Confident yet humble, sharp yet gentle, aggressive yet calm, the firmness and drive that comes from the heart make people look at him and make them irrefutable.

The topic is here, and it seems pointless to continue. This time, Renly moved forward again, and the encirclement of the reporters was obviously loosened, and they did not press further. In the end, Renly succeeded in breaking through. The reporters were like the tail of a comet, reluctantly following behind Renly, He continued to press the shutter to capture the moment, but more and more people were left behind. The whole tail was dragged to the door of the hotel in a mighty manner, followed by Renly's departure, and then was completely cut off.

Cornell scratched his head vigorously, feeling agitated for a while, this Renly... I really don't like it.

Neither James nor Renly was at the mercy of the reporters and managed to defuse the edge and quickly eased things up, but that didn't mean the reporters would just let it go. First, James and Renly faced the same "comparison" problem, and they both chose themselves, which also means that the confrontation has not been resolved; second, "127 Hours" and "Buried Alive" are the same type of movies , it is indeed easy to be placed together for comparison, and whether it can continue into the awards season is still unknown, but there is no doubt at the Toronto Film Festival.

As a result, the reporters continued to fan the flames, "James Franco vs. Renly Hall, who is the first acting actor of the Y generation?"

Corresponding to the Chinese/Chinese division of generations into the post-70s and post-80s, American sociologists used World War II as the standard line to divide people into several different generations. The Quiet Generation"; followed by the "Baby Boomers," who pursued freedom of thought and /**** were the creators of America's economic boom in the latter part of the last century.

The cynical "Generation X" is a group of "individualists" who are regarded as lazy, lacking in responsibility and aggressive; , There are also specific classifications for those born between 1977 and 1990. This generation, also known as the "me generation," is self-centered, has broader cultural values, desires to be recognized through hard work, and enjoys work without letting it control their lives.

At present, the active central figures in Hollywood are mainly "baby boomers", Will - Smith (Will-Smith), Tom - Cruise, Brad - Pitt, George - Clooney, Sean - Penn and so on; "Generation X" is slowly rising, Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Ethan-Hawke and more.

However, after entering the 21st century, "Generation Y" is accelerating the pace of seizing power, Natalie Portman, Keira-Knightley (Keira-Knightley), Scarlett-Johansson, Heath- It's the same with Heath-Legder, Jake-Gyllenhaal, Orlando-Bloom and a string of "Harry Potter" stars.

Among the actors of the Y generation, Heath Ledger, who died young, is undoubtedly the most high-profile. He gave a hall-level performance at a young age, but unfortunately he fell like a meteor. Now Natalie- Portman and Jake Gyllenhaal can be regarded as the acting leaders of this generation of actors, but they are still weak and cannot be compared with Generation X and Baby Boomers.

Three years ago, "Transformers" brought Shia-LaBeouf out, and many people thought he could be the next Tom Hanks. Unfortunately, everyone was disappointed.

Now, James and Renly, two potential acting representatives of Generation Y, have emerged in one breath. The media immediately fry the pot, like boiling water, bubbling straight, and things have gradually separated from the simple actors. Duel, work duel, but also the rapid rise of the strength of the new generation.

Then, after the premiere of "Black Swan" in Toronto, Natalie's stunning performance once again set off a wave of media discussion. The strong performance of "Generation Y" acting representatives has undoubtedly become the focus of heated discussions among the media.

Accident, another accident, just when everyone thought that the "tear" between Renly and James would become the next focus, a brand new topic became the new favorite of the major media. Riding the wind and standing on the cusp again, the development trajectory of this independent film in Toronto this year is really staggering.

At the same time, the official organizing committee of the Toronto Film Festival announced that "Buried Alive" will be added for the second time, this time, it will be added six times in one go! There are three shows a day to meet the viewing needs of the vast audience.
