Jessica Chastain, who was later affectionately known as "Sister Model Worker", was undoubtedly one of the best performers among "Generation Y" actresses in Renly's opinion.
In 2011, Jessica released a total of seven films throughout the year - including works shown in art theaters. Although some works were filmed before and were not released until this year, the serial bombing of seven works is still Staggeringly, this earned her the nickname "Sister Worker".
Jessica is not the kind of stunning beauty, with a natural advantage of white skin and red hair, but not the kind of amazing Nicole Kidman, her facial features are more tough, and her whole person's temperament is more unique, which is not suitable for most people. The traditional aesthetic of beauty. However, after watching her performance, you will really feel the pungent, sharp, tough yet delicate, restrained, and rich qualities, and the character image has been established in a few strokes.
Personally, Renly likes Jessica's performance in "Ms. Sloan" the most, capable, neat and vulnerable, tough, and truly on fire and at ease. In addition, the performances in works such as "Hunting Bin Laden", "Help" and "Scarlet Mountain" also left a deep impression.

Although Jessica was not recognized by the Oscars until Renly's rebirth, in Renly's view, she is definitely one of the top performers among the actors of her generation.
What many people don't know is that Jessica has been in the TV circle for a while, but she is only a small supporting role. In 2008, she moved to the big screen for the first time, and then she started her career as a sturdy actor. In just a few years There was a world out there. From this point of view, she can also be said to be a talented actor.
The Jessica in front of her has not yet reached the level of full aura in a few years, but her unique temperament, cold and tough, still makes her stand out easily.
Interestingly, she, like Renly, joined the discussion as an audience and as a fan, so Renly greeted him without politeness and went straight to the point.
"From a theoretical point of view, character determines fate; but from a practical point of view, no one situation can be perfectly replicated."
Renly's thoughts turned very quickly. "Another Earth" was originally his favorite science fiction movie, and he really felt it. The second time I watched it today, I was even more impressed.
"It's like right now, where you stand and where the pedestrians pass by, a little bit different, it's very likely to lead to changes in the feeling of space, changes in air flow, and seemingly similar situations may trigger different reactions for each person. Taking a step back, under special circumstances, we may often have two or three different choices, and the difference of one thought will lead to different decisions. The more people around and the more environmental factors, the fluctuations in the impact will be The larger it is, the higher the probability of biased selection."
Before Renly's words were finished, Jessica cut in directly and said quickly, "Then you are saying that in different parallel spaces, similar circumstances may lead to different results, this is the movie theme?"
"Yes, when the car accident happened in the movie, was it possible that there was a gust of wind? Is it possible that the streetlights stabbed the eyes? Could these small changes have brought about completely different results? The ending of this movie is very intriguing, I don’t think what it really discusses is parallel space, but our reflection on ourselves, our entanglement with our faults, and our memory of the past. I even think Asian Buddhism can be used to explain this sense of destiny in reincarnation.”
…
Immediately after Renly's words came out, everyone was in a frenzy, expressing their opinions one after another, and the majority of those who opposed it were very lively. Some people even blushed, had blue veins burst, and argued with reason. , as if this were not a movie but a life-and-death debate.
"So, do you think this movie is good or bad?" After going around in circles, Jessica threw the question to Renly again.
Renly shrugged and gave an alternative answer, "I personally like this movie a lot."
As a movie fan, he doesn't need to judge whether the movie is good or bad, but based on his own preferences, to judge whether he likes the movie or not, some movies everyone scoffs at, but he likes it very much, and vice versa, this is the way to watch The right way for a movie. Maybe "Another Earth" is a sleepy smack to many, but for Renly, he just loves it.
Jessica immediately understood the meaning of Renly's words, and nodded her head in affirmation, "I also like this movie. So do you have anything else to gain these days? Works worth recommending?"
"'Two Martha,' I think it's a very interesting movie."
Renly and Jessica were standing in the crowd, the icy cold wind was blowing at the entrance of the cinema, and the biting cold was desperately digging into their necks, but they didn't care and still talked happily.
To Renly's surprise, not only "Another Earth", but Jessica has even seen "Double Martha", and she also likes it very much. Compared with "Another Earth", "Double-Faced Masha" puts forward higher requirements for actors, and the discussion topics between the two people also extend from the film itself to the performance.
In the past three days, Sundance has released fourteen movies, and it is not easy for two people to overlap their viewing lists; and both have similar views on movies. , which is even more of a low-probability event.
The expressions of the two of them were full of surprise and joy. The conversation continued, and the other audience members next to them also joined the discussion. The scene was very lively.
However, they are not the only small group at the entrance of the cinema. There are at least five or six groups of people around them, all expressing and exchanging opinions impassively.
Such a scene is even more lively than that of Telluride - after all, compared to the widely-based films of Telluride, the works that land in Sundance are often niche and even niche. If you want to find one. Like-minded partners are not that easy. So, once met, how could they not be excited
The hustle and bustle vibrated on the eardrums, making a humming noise. Cornell McGregor rubbed his ears and walked quickly through the crowd towards the cinema, if his message was correct. , Michael Shannon (Minon) is in it now.
In Sundance, where unknown independent filmmakers are popular, Michael can already be regarded as a first-class big name. Not only has he been active in Hollywood for 17 years and is known as a golden supporting role; He was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for his outstanding performance. His solid performance, excellent price-performance ratio, and affinity for independent films made Michael very popular at Sundance.
This time, Michael also has a work landing at Sundance, so Cornell hopes to interview him as soon as possible.
Time was running out, Cornell quickened his pace a little and moved forward in a hurry, but suddenly, he stopped in place, froze for a moment, carefully recalled the scene in his mind, and then began to rewind, He stepped back quickly, and eagerly searched among the crowd—
Not so difficult, he saw Renly at once. That superior height really stands out from the crowd. If you look for it deliberately, you will hardly miss it.
But the question is, why did Renly show up at Sundance? After the Golden Globes, there was no news that Renly would come to Sundance—of course, this is also because people's attention to Renly is still not comprehensive enough, there is no paparazzi to follow, and there is no ordinary people to "report" at any time. , Without the reporter's in-depth background investigation, Renly's whereabouts are indeed difficult to control.
All that aside, the first thought in Cornell's mind was: Renly's coming to Sundance was a personal act? Are there still works out? Or come to support a friend
As the focus of the hottest discussion in recent times, Cornell naturally won't easily miss Renly. More importantly, on the red carpet of the Golden Globe Awards last week, Cornell still suffered a small loss in the hands of Renly. Now that the opportunity has come back, he will naturally not miss it easily.
Then, Cornell saw Jessica standing next to Renly, and his eyes lit up!
Michael Shannon's Sundance work, called "Seeking Refuge", was co-authored with Jessica Chastain and directed by Jeff-Nichols. Therefore, Jessica, who was still unknown at this time, was recognized by Cornell at a glance. Does this mean that Renly is here to cheer on a friend? Or, going one step further, Renly and Jessica are dating
If so, that's a blast!
Jessica is thirty-three years old this year, twelve years older than Renly. Does this mean that, after Ashton-Kutcher and Demi-Moore, Is Hollywood going to have another pair of "sister and brother love" worth discussing
Before Cornell even got close, he had already made up the whole story. In comparison, Michael's interview seems insignificant, anyway, here at Sundance, there are bound to be countless people who will interview Michael, but Renly's news is absolutely not to be missed. Maybe he will get the exclusive!
While thinking, he stepped forward quickly, and Cornell's voice couldn't wait to ring out, "Renly, do you have time for an interview? I'm Cornell McGregor from 'Entertainment Weekly'."
He didn't wait for Renly to answer, and squeezed into the discussion group. Since everyone was standing loosely, he didn't spend too much effort, opened a path, and easily came to Renly. He quickly took out the recorder from his pocket, and continued to ask, "I didn't expect you to be in Park City, this is a surprise, I believe readers will be very happy to know. How are you doing, especially after the Ballon d'Or..."
"No time."
Cornell's words came to an abrupt end.
