After reviewing the manuscript again, after confirming that it was correct, Sean Levy uploaded the manuscript to the official website of "Empire" magazine as soon as possible.

As frontline film critics, they must race against time. Every minute is very precious. If he follows the usual schedule, he will now return to the hotel non-stop, wash and sleep, and recharge for tomorrow's work; but today , The work has been completed, but Sean is not at all sleepy.

Sitting in the seat, holding up a beer, the picture of "Drunk Country Folk Songs" reappeared in my mind involuntarily.

For Sean, "Drunk Country Folk Songs" is a perfect movie, with far-reaching lingering charm.

Not only because of the script or photography or performance, but because of the unique temperament that comes out after every detail is put together completely, poetic and moving, light and deep, beautiful and sad; but more commendable is the end of the movie The staying power and reflection afterwards was beyond imagination.

Now, the graceful and melodious folk melody seems to reverberate in my ears. Close your eyes and you can once again return to the Greenwich Village in the 1960s, the clean and misty streets, the poor but kind people, and those The losers who sang on their guitars between the bars, but they were happy.

Sean is a little curious. What are the opinions of other film critics in the Cannes Film Festival's official journal?

...

As the world's largest film trading market, the official publication system of the Cannes Film Festival is also intricate.

Some film works have been watched by the market before the official premiere, and the copyrights have all been sold out. This has also increased the expectations of reporters and film critics; while for some works, the opposite is true. After the premiere, reporters and The market will react further after the comments of film critics are released.

In addition, the official film review list can also be divided into many types, one is French media and European media led by "Cinema Manual", the other is mainstream media in the United Kingdom and the United States, and the other is Latin American media led by Mexico— -This list is also called Apichabang, and there is also a three-nation media in East Asia.

Each list has its own special reference significance.

Relevant marketers in South American markets such as Brazil or Argentina are naturally more willing to refer to their own "Apica List" when buying copyrights; when considering the Oscars for best foreign language film seed players, the British and American media lists are The correct reference object, the score of the "Cinema Manual" does not have much reference value.

It is precisely because of this that Chinese media are often prone to deviations when reporting on the Cannes Film Festival.

For example, they reported that a work was a big hit in Cannes and won a high score in the show, but when the final result came out, this work did not win, but another work with mediocre reputation. So everyone was full of question marks, "What's going on?" Immediately afterwards, they shouted "shadow", even a large area of ​​injustice.

The premise is that the three major European film festivals are all based on the jury system. The judges’ personal aesthetic taste is the key to determining the award. The score of the show is the opinion of the media. It does not mean that the high score of the show is the guarantee of the prize. At the Cannes Film Festival, there were quite a few cases where the highest score in the field ended up empty-handed.

But even if this point is left aside, the aesthetic tastes and scores of the magazines are different in different countries and regions. When reading news reports, you must recognize that this is the list of each region. The simplest and most intuitive example is "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which is serious in countless British and American media. This is the best Chinese martial arts film since the new century. But for Chinese audiences, this is a masterpiece, but not necessarily the best. The one.

Therefore, standing outside the wall and looking at flowers in the fog, if you want to see clearly, you must keep your eyes open, otherwise you will be an outsider after all.

However, among the many scores of the Cannes Film Festival, there is only one official one.

Every year, there are countless media reporters who come to Cannes. Every year, the film festival officials will select ten film critics to represent the different views of different regions and different media. Every year, the selection of the media will happen or Large or small changes ensure that more new ideas and changes can be brought to the newsletter.

In other words, the official journal emphasizes an average value.

This year, the French "Resolution/Release" and "Feature Film" magazines, the British "Video and Listening", "Daily Telegraph" and "Screen" magazines, the American "Los Angeles Times", and Russia's "Medusa" "Magazine, Germany's "Time", Japan's "Film Times" magazine, Thailand's "Bangkok Post" and so on, a total of ten media received invitations to form the official media scoring team.

Each media will send an authoritative professional film critic as a representative to score, the four stars are the highest, and the sporadic is the lowest. If you miss the premiere, you are allowed to miss the movie; every day, they must update their scores in time and ensure that they are second. In the morning, the official journal will be released in time.

However, this is only the field scoring group for the main competition unit, and a focus unit, director's biweekly unit, etc. are not included in the scope of comment scoring.

Early in the morning, under the urging of the alarm clock, Emily got up in a daze, but the brain was still in a trance vacuum state. Even after brushing her teeth and washing her face, she still did not improve much. A small cup of espresso After the coffee entered the stomach, he was slightly awake.

However, I was so excited last night, standing in the tavern chatting with other colleagues and forgetting the time, adding up, she only slept for more than four hours, and now she feels that she can fall asleep standing up , Just like a little pony.

"God! Lanly-Hall burst! Lanly-Hall burst!"

There was an exuberant scream in her ear. In an instant, Emily hit a sharp spirit, walked forward quickly, and asked vigorously, "Is it Levine Davis?"

"Yes, yes! God! I really love movies!" The other party didn't care that Emily was a completely strange passer-by, so she couldn't wait to share it, and delivered the official newsletter with the fragrance of ink in her hand. come.

The movie journal is a quadrant list. The vertical axis is the name of the movie, arranged in order of the time of release; the horizontal axis is the name of the magazine and the film critics, arranged randomly after disrupting the order.

Before the official opening of the film festival, the form has been printed out, leaving a space waiting to be filled, so every day you only need to scan the bottom row of star ratings to see the specific ratings of the latest movies.

Emily leaned forward, took the official show, and quickly came to the bottom row, took a simple glance, and then couldn't help but start screaming, "Blast! Blast! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh , Burst! Lanly-Hall burst!" Shouting and shouting, both feet began to stamp on the spot with excitement, and the joy that blew out could not be suppressed at all.

The three little strangers who were discussing enthusiastically just now all laughed happily.

"As I said, this movie will definitely explode in Cannes. The French media absolutely love it."

"I was originally worried that the United States would not like it too much, but now it seems that the'Los Angeles Times' is still stable. I don't know what the prospects for Oscars will be next year.

"The thing that surprised me most was Germany. The Times gave a full score of four stars. God, I thought they didn’t understand folk songs or poetry. Don’t tell me that philosophy is part of poetry, and don’t talk to me. What about history? The tastes of Berlin and Cannes are different."

"What's the matter with the Russian and Thai media? Only they are holding back!"

The chattering discussion is endless. Before you know it, the number of people participating in the discussion is increasing. All of Emily’s troubles are swept away, and she greets the little friends who have just met, "Don’t care about these details. , We will know by looking at the detailed comments. To be honest, I have always worried that the British media will not like it..."

"Impossible!" The three people shouted in unison. The uniform voice was too loud, and Emily was taken aback. The four couldn't help but stare at each other, slightly stunned, and then collectively laughed.

One of the thin and tall boys said, "The British media is so crazy about Lan Li now, okay? Yesterday, when I was watching the premiere, I sat with a few British film critics, and they were already shaking with excitement. Hand it~www.novelhall.com~ People who don’t know, think they are alcohol poisoned."

Emily opened the newsletter amidst the spit, and quickly began to read it, and there was a urging sound in her ear, "Read it out, read it out directly, we haven't had time to read it in detail just now."

Emily did not hesitate, and read it aloud. "The Coen brothers consciously cut the focus of the narrative and focused all the lens on Levine Davis. They are undoubtedly gentle and gentle towards this character. Gentleman, invite every audience to follow in his footsteps in Greenwich Village in the 1960s, and then start to wonder: Why can this man be such a **** and never repent?"

"God!"

Before Emily finished reading, everyone began to roll their eyes collectively, and a look of hatred for iron and steel began to curse.

"Does he understand?" "He doesn't understand at all, okay?" "If Levine is a bastard, what about Ray-Charles?" "Such a comment is so stupid that it appeared in the magazine. on?"

"Wait, wait, it's not over yet." Emily raised her voice repeatedly, preventing everyone from complaining, and continued reading, "But the problem is that you still can't look away from the man. Because you will find in him the fragility and pain you have. Although I don't want to admit it, Renly Hall did it again."

A smile gradually bloomed at the corner of her mouth, and Emily read aloud, “This is the comment of Mr. Anton-Dolin from Russia’s Medusa magazine, and he gave it three stars.”

By the way, the score of the "Drunk Country Folk Songs" is 3.6.
