"Rachel, you starred in a Broadway play with Daniel Craig and his wife. Will there be a second season?"

"Ben, there are rumors that you and Mark-Bradshaw are registered to marry, is this true?"

"Leia, do you and your fiancé have any plans to walk into the wedding hall next?"

"John... I heard that on the first night you arrived in Cannes, you had a bad stomach and sat on the toilet all night. Is that true?"

Undoubtedly, the "Lobster" crew is one of the most high-profile crews at this year's Cannes Film Festival, with both fame and popularity. Even though a long press conference was held yesterday, on the red carpet of today's premiere, the reporter Their question-and-answer session was still protracted and reluctant.

The only problem might be with John C Reilly.

John's honest and honest face showed confusion, squinted his eyes slightly, blinked uncontrollably, and then turned to look at his colleagues and colleagues around him, the folds of his eyes were full of confusion, "Uh... why my The style of painting is different from others? I also want to be asked about the scandal, is no one curious, is my marriage with my wife stable? We seem to have encountered some mid-life crises recently.”

There was a hint of urgency to share in those honest words, and with that harmless face, it could not help revealing a little grievance.

The "Lobster" crew burst into laughter, Whishaw and Renly both stepped forward to give John a hug, and then John raised his voice solemnly, "You can ask me about the filming set, about anyone. , I'm more than happy to share, I mean it."

The urgency and anxiety of "desiring to be the center of attention" was vividly displayed, and John succeeded in making the atmosphere happy in his own way.

Even the reporters couldn't help cheering and applauding John.

Such a pleasant atmosphere continued all the way to the Lumiere Hall, the audience was full, and the bustling audience had already sat early, quietly waiting for the movie to unveil the mystery. It seems like it could break out at any moment.

"Finally! Finally showing up!" Not far away, Joel Cohen waved at Renly and greeted Renly without hesitation.

Renly also showed a smile, "Sorry, it's too popular." A joke made the people around laugh, nodded to Joel, and then looked at Ethan next to him, "Long time no see, Ethan."

The Coen brothers, the chairman of the jury at this year's Cannes Film Festival, this is the first time that Cannes has a dual-chair situation, but the Coen brothers are two people in one, the situation is relatively special, Cannes naturally has his reasons for such a decision, and it did not appear What an objection.

"Hey, Guillermo, it's an honor to meet you." Sitting on the left of the Coen brothers, closer to Renly, was Guillermo del Toro.

"God, why did I forget, please allow me to introduce to you, Gilmour, Renly; Renly, Gilmour." Joel cheerfully acted as a bridge to introduce Renly and Gilmour.

Gilmour was chubby like a panda, and his movements were a little inconvenient. Renly reached out and took Gilmour's right hand, which made him a little shy, "Sorry... I... Please forgive... God, I I'm so rude. I should have... I'm really sorry."

Gilmour tried to stand up, but because of the angle, his body looked back and got stuck in the chair awkwardly, which made him unable to stand up, his words became flustered, and he was always apologizing. His Spanish accent became more and more simple.

"Don't worry. The film festival may be inconvenient. After the film festival is over, we can chat slowly." Renly patted Gilmour on the shoulder thoughtfully and teased a little - Gilmour, like the Coen brothers, They are all members of the jury this year, and they still need to avoid suspicion during the film festival.

Gilmour giggled, and seemed to like the joke very much.

Renly looked at Joel again. "Actually, we've met before, in Berlin. But I think movies are really a very small circle."

Joel was not surprised, "I thought Alfonso and Alejandro should have introduced it, but I'm not sure."

The three Mexican heroes, Alfonso Cuaron, Alejandro Gonzalez Inaritu, all have a direct or indirect partnership with Renly, and the other is Gilmour in front of him - Del Toro, not directly related to Renly for the time being.

However, the three Mexican directors are always watching and helping each other, and it is not easy to work together to create a sky in Hollywood. The connection between them is very close, so it is only a matter of time to make a relationship with Renly.

"Shh. I think we should stop, or the reporters will start speculating that I'm trying to get votes." Renly ended the simple greeting with a joke.

Although friends meet, there are always endless topics to talk about, but considering that this is the Cannes Film Festival, there is still a slight difference between their positions. In order to avoid misunderstandings, it is better to keep a distance as much as possible. Just like when Steven Spielberg was president of the jury two years ago.

Renly nodded with a smile at Gilmour again, and then returned to his seat. Before he could sit still, someone behind him tapped him on the shoulder, which gave Renly a shock. He turned his head sharply, and saw Jake Gyllenhaal's smiling face.

"Jack!" Renly shook his head speechlessly. "You should know that my image is worth a thousand dollars, and I may have lost several million just now."

Jack smiled even more brilliantly, leaning forward slightly, his chin resting on the back of Renly's chair, "You know what? At the press conference before the unveiling ceremony, a reporter asked me, the last time I was at the Berlin Film Festival. When you were on the jury, you won the Silver Bear, so will I continue to bring you good luck this time."

Without Jack's further explanation, Renly realized: the Coen brothers are the chairman of the jury, Jack is one of the judges, and Gilmour, who is inextricably linked, has been exposed to the media many times before. Javier Dolan expressing great appreciation for Renly...

This year seems to be another year for Renly to play.

"Ha, I'll tell them, I'm aiming for the Palme d'Or this year." Renly didn't mind.

As he said, the film industry is a very small circle, and connections are very important, but not everything. Otherwise, the golden figures of Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg would not be fixed in the number "two" "On top of that, there's no way Harvey Weinstein will fail this awards season.

"Ah, you can still answer like this." Jack's eyes were rounded, his face full of annoyance, "I should have answered like this at the time." The lingering appearance made Renly laugh happily, but Jack was slightly Helpless, "I just replied that I will do my job as a judge dutifully. God, I now finally know why reporters always say my interviews are very boring, and I feel the same way myself."

"At least, that way the reporters won't bother you," Renly said with great seriousness.

Jack was stunned for a while, and replied seriously, "I can't tell whether you are joking or serious." Then he lowered his head heavily, bumped his forehead against his arm, and made a muffled sound. It was just a wailing, but it was not clear whether it was a depressed cry or a painful cry.

Renly patted Jack lightly on the shoulder, holding back a smile, "Gentleman, the movie is about to start. Please promise me you'll watch it carefully and won't get distracted, okay?"

After speaking, Renly also adjusted his sitting position and faced the big screen again, preparing for the release of the movie.

This is also the first time Renly has watched the complete work of "The Lobster" on the big screen. After Oggs revised the script and characters, what happened to the details and clues of the movie, and what effect did it have on the theme of the movie? It's all unknown, and Renly is looking forward to how the finished product will perform.

"I'll be more critical." Jack's voice came from behind, seriously emphasizing his professionalism, which made the corners of Renly's mouth rise.

The lights in the Lumiere Hall slowly dimmed, and the hustle and bustle of the hustle and bustle in the room was slowly precipitating as the lights dimmed. The excitement and excitement were hidden under the skin, and the blood began to roll little by little. stand up-

As Jack said, expectations have been broken.

After "Bumper" brought Renly the second Oscar statuette, the "Renly-Hall" signboard has become a natural label on a global scale, representing quality and capability, no need for publicity at all, looking forward to The value has reached a new high:

What was it that attracted Renly? Can Renly bring a breakthrough this time? Can Renly, who is considered a career high every time he performs, continue to surpass himself? Renly, who is already at the pinnacle of his career, when will he be able to bring a real masterpiece, just as "Titanic" was to James Cameron, or "Blood Will Come" to Like Daniel Day-Lewis

"Lobster", can it be done

High expectations also means a double-edged sword, and the pressure has reached an unprecedented peak.

At this time, the anticipation was rolling under the skin, and even the heart began to tremble slightly. No one could make an exception; the riotous pomp on the red carpet was just a microcosm, and more than 800 reporters arrived three hours early. The queuing on the spot is enough to say that there are too many.

Now, the movie is finally about to reveal the mystery, and the volcano erupts suddenly, and the entire Lumiere Hall is surging with the smell of magma-like sulfur.

"Renly Hall, I love you!"

In the silence, the abrupt voice broke the peace like this. It rang in the entire Lumiere hall for a long time. Everyone was stunned for a while, and then they laughed together. The tense atmosphere was slightly relieved. , and then, the movie begins.
