Renly doesn't think it's his own credit, because in the last life, without his interference, Riz Ahmed still became the hero of "Sin Night Run" and was highly praised.
But Liz doesn't think so. Just like Max Mickelson, as American actors of Middle Eastern descent, their performance work always faces an invisible barrier, and they often need to pay ten times or even a hundred times. Only by working hard can you win a chance - and what's worse, there is still no chance after ten times the sweat.
The fact is, Ritz has been in the business for nearly ten years, and "Sin Night Run" is only his first starring work - what he really needs to thank is Sisyphus Pictures willing to take over the "Sin Night Run" project, which Special projects focused on minorities, where the male lead itself is set to be a minority, which allows actors like Ritz to get more opportunities, which is what Sisyphus Pictures is doing.
Since last year's Sundance Film Festival, Renly has gradually taken over more producer jobs, and has exerted more influence in the North American film market through Sisyphus Films; and now, those actions are gradually unveiled, Little by little, make people aware of Renly's true purpose.
For independent films, for minority actors, and for works with uncommon themes, the debut of Sisyphus Pictures is undoubtedly a crucial good news.
"Anti-God Evil God"
So Liz needed to say thank you, and look into Renly's eyes and express her sincere thanks.
"...I believe that talented actors always shine," Renly said with a smile.
Liz was a little reserved, because Renly's words were undoubtedly a compliment to him, but fortunately, the dark brown skin covered the hotness of his cheeks, "You mean, just like you?" Liz said with a sentence The reply pushes the praise back.
Renly laughed happily, "Ha, I've already shed enough light, it's like a beacon now, and if it continues to bloom, it will become a collective target of attack. So, my goal now is to light up more Light, distract yourself so you can catch your breath."
This interpretation is also… a different way.
Glancing at the messy scene after the prank, Liz finally relaxed, and the smile slowly overflowed from the depths of his eyes.
"Isn't our current target of attack?" Mendelsohn's voice broke in, interrupting the communication between Renly and Ritz. He faintly heard an ending, and then directly intervened in the topic, while embarrassed He wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth, while grumbling at Renly.
Renly spread his hands, "Convicted."
So readily admitting it, Mendelson didn't know what to do, staring at Renly angrily, "You should stop these childish games and learn how to respect the elderly. You know, I'm old enough to be Grandfather, I have no way to continue tossing."
"What if we toss Tony, Angus and the others together?" Renly asked casually.
Mendelssohn paused for a moment, muttering something indistinctly, then clenching his neck, "That's another story." But as soon as he finished speaking, he quietly approached Renly. One step, "How is it, do you have any special thoughts now?"
Ritz, who was standing beside him and witnessed everything, had a hard time holding back his laughter.
"What are you planning? Hey, it's you!" Wen-Jiang finally stopped and was cleaning himself up. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the three of Renly muttering something in the corner, and immediately sent out sensitively. His own voice, "Is Renly scheming another prank?"
"Oops, it was discovered by accident. No, we need to make a more careful plan." Renly answered, not only did not deny it in a hurry, but continued to speak along with the words, which immediately made Wen Li - Jiang and others were dumbfounded - what should they do now
If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't expose it...
Felicity noticed the momentary pause in the lounge, and laughed outright without holding back.
The atmosphere in the locker room was broken again. Wen-Jiang patted his head in annoyance and muttered in Chinese, "This is really evil, how can that guy see through everything?" He never thought that there was only one How did a young man half his age master this wisdom? Even if they were gathered together with middle-aged and old guys like them, they were not nervous at all, and they were even at ease. Before he knew it, he became one with the entire crew.
The bustling hustle and bustle continued for a while, and the staff went in and out of the lounge - everyone wondered what that cup of "Dead Sea water" coffee was like? But those who expect a taste similar to "sea salt coffee" are destined to be disappointed. Obviously, after too much sea salt is added, the coffee is no longer coffee, and the taste is broken in an unreasonable way. This is definitely a rare experience .
Those messes have been cleaned up, and the chaos has returned to normal. The actors are still sitting in the lounge to relax and wait, but it is obvious that the tacit understanding between each other has become much closer - the same victims. Special experiences that produce a common language.
"This year has been a bit... I don't know, boring. I didn't like it too much. Did you watch 'Birdman'?"
"No, I haven't watched it yet. I've only watched one 'Boyhood', and I like it very much. I don't even have time to watch that work by Renly."
"You're going to love 'Birdman,' Michael Keaton is basically ranting about himself: an actor whose career has been lackluster because of Batman's fame, but is looking forward to rediscovering his second career on stage. FULL MOVIE It's all very interesting, especially the one-shot at the beginning."
"Really? Do you think 'Birdman' can win? I thought 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' was more popular. At least three of my director friends have mentioned Wes Anderson's work, and it's light weight His comedic expression is now his masterpiece."
"Who knows? According to past habits, the 'Grand Budapest Hotel' may not even reach the decisive stage."
"The Golden Globes may be a bellwether. I wonder if the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has heard any rumors. You know theirs. It's not so much a bellwether as a response. There is nothing professional about the awards, it's all about PR during the awards season. A stage summary."
"Shouldn't that ask Renly? Hey, Renly, are you really not going to the Ballon d'Or?"
Gossip between actors is also unavoidable. The topic of awards season can always become a side of the industry to spy on, and it may also become a topic for them when they chat after a meal, just like now, even if they are not interested in trophies, the trend of awards season will not change. It will affect their follow-up work - what's more, on the one hand, this is the hot spot of the entire industry, and on the other hand, they are indeed interested in trophies.
But as they talked, the topic came to Renly again.
Renly, who was discussing Wia's skills with Felicity, suddenly heard Mendelsohn's voice and was interrupted. When he turned his head, he could see that Mendelsohn made a deliberately grimace, like an old urchin, which made him Renly laughed dumbly, "Aren't you going to attack Felicity? She's going to be sad." Felicity also won the nomination, but also missed the Golden Globes.
"No, no, I'm fine, I'm very fine. You guys continue, please don't care about me, just treat it like I don't exist." Felicity quickly clarified, revealing that she couldn't wait to meet Renly The look that draws the line.
The crowd laughed.
Renly spread his hands and met everyone's gaze, "No, I'm not going to participate in the Golden Globes. There are more interesting things going on right now, and it's not a difficult choice."
"But, don't you expect yourself to win the award?" Wen-Jiang asked curiously, before Renly could answer, he turned to look at his colleagues, "Don't you think? This year Renly The performance is very strong, the Ballon d'Or should give him the trophy, what do you think?"
"Cough cough. The person involved is at the scene, pay attention to his words and deeds." Ren Li coughed twice, pretending to be very concerned, and asked everyone to affirm Wen-Jiang's problem.
Such a small action instantly resolved the embarrassment and made everyone laugh softly.
Renly also took advantage of the situation and said, "I know I'm very good. Thank you." The following thanks were said to Wen-Jiang, and he expressed his gratitude without any humility, which also caused laughter again, "But I don't think This year is mine. I'm not being humble, I'm stating an objective fact, otherwise why do you think I missed the Ballon d'Or? Because I don't want to sit in the spotlight and be the center of attention and be humiliated in person. My arrogance is absolutely not Allow this to happen."
These half-truths are obviously self-deprecating, which is really hilarious; if you look at the actual situation of the Golden Globes, the irony effect can be doubled, and the laughter can't stop.
"I don't think so." Felicity was the first to shake her head in denial, "I think..."
But before continuing, Renly cast a meaningful look, "Lady, I think you need to be careful about your choices."
Renly's competitors include "The Theory of Everything" Eddie Redmayne. If Felicity chooses Renly, it would be inappropriate...
Felicity knew that Renly was deliberately making fun of herself, and she was helpless, and rolled her eyes at Renly; but the other actors felt that Renly's "joke" was very accurate, and the low laughter turned into a cacophony. , One by one, they also started complaining, "Felicity, it's better to be careful", "Be careful that there are other ears here", "Some people won't be happy with your choice" - Gradually, the object of complaining seems to be moving towards Harvey Weinstein moved.
It can be seen that Harvey's domineering and strong, definitely not only Felicity's agent Alison himself felt the same.
