The bitter winter of Park City is embracing the busiest and most sensational moment in 30 years. Sundance, which has experienced ups and downs, seems to be facing the turning point of the times, just like the turbulent film industry, but is it rising or not? No one can predict a landslide.

The next day, the Sundance Film Festival ushered in the closing ceremony and awards ceremony, announcing that the 30th anniversary celebration officially came to an end.

When Lan Li's figure appeared on the red carpet of the closing ceremony, the scene immediately fell into a frenzy. The flashes of the audience were mixed with cheers and screams, pouring down like a gust of wind and rain. The politeness enveloped it on the ground, and even before Lan Li could gain a foothold, the reporters' questions swarmed from all directions.

"Lan Li, Lan Li! There are rumors in Hollywood in the past two days that you came to Sundance this year solely to attack the Oscar actor, Golden Man. Do you have any response to this?"

Such outspoken questions did not have the sharp sense of attack as imagined. Instead, there was the rush and noise of the vegetable market to go to the market, which made Lan Li chuckle happily, "Thank you?"

Thank you?

What's the answer?

"When I confirmed last time, the situation was different, but now it suddenly turned around. This should be a good thing. Does this mean that I can look forward to this year's awards ceremony?" Lan Li is still talking and smiling, smiling all over his face. The reporters couldn't help but laugh at the brisk and free words.

Inadvertently, Lan Li mentioned a very, very important thing: in this year's awards season, he has not been a hot spot, or even the target of attack. It wasn't before, now... I guess it still isn't. So, is the source of these rumors worthy of further savoring?

The counterattack was launched quietly. This is Lan Li's ability. Before the reporters chase the section, he will never appear embarrassed.

"However, as I said before, the nomination is already a very important affirmation. This is my honour." Then, Lanly re-entered the official social mode. "As for Sundance, I think such a rumor is Disrespect for Park City and Robert Redford, this is one of the best film festivals in North America and even the world. Movies are the protagonists here. Those Vanity Fair disturbances will stay in the spotlight for the time being, we I still hope to be able to talk about movies and dreams here. After all, there is really not much living space left for them now."

Lan Li's response was still Lan Li.

Sundance is still Sundance, and the questions from the reporters on the spot quickly returned to the right track, "Is it like yesterday's roundtable?"

This made Lan Li laugh happily, "Yes, just like yesterday. To be honest, I have participated in many film festivals, but yesterday was still one of the most wonderful moments."

When mentioning the movie, Lan Li’s words and expressions became brighter again, “I exchanged my thoughts with a group of friends who have the same hobbies, arguing with each other for a movie I like, and missed the movie for myself. It’s just the purest movie lovers to share the details enthusiastically. This is really too happy, isn’t it?"

Sincerity and enthusiasm gleamed in those light brown eyes, which made every audience excited.

Immediately afterwards, the question centered around Sundance. Compared with the ups and downs in Hollywood, the anecdote of Park City is obviously more attractive:

A symposium that created a miracle live webcast, the best "burst drummer" of his career again, a series of surprises of the Coen Brothers series of film screenings, a round table meeting that ignited the enthusiasm of movie fans... This year's Sundance does not need the decoration of the award season Rendering, the topic of its own is enough to bring all eyes together.

The entire red carpet scene is also permeated with a unique atmosphere of joy, and the corners and corners show the uniqueness of Park City.

"Ren Li, Sundance this year, you have gained a lot now, so, is there any regret? I mean, Robert originally invited Steven Soderberg, Quentin Tarantino and Woody -Allen, but unfortunately, none of them were able to show up in Park City. What are your thoughts on such small shortcomings?"

"Of course, this is a pity." Lan Li gently chinked his head in agreement, "In fact, when we were chatting and arguing with Wes and Noah yesterday, we also mentioned Woody's work. If he could present himself in person When we come to Park City, we have face-to-face discussions about scripts and editing, which is bound to be very interesting. But I think that for Woody and the others, there is too much talk about similar topics, and he may not be too interested. "

The relaxed tone once again made everyone at the scene chuckle.

"However, this is life. We can always look forward to the next time." Lan Li said with a smile. "When I came to Park City for the first time, I did not expect that I would bring the work for the second time. Visiting Sundance, unfortunately, those familiar faces seem to have disappeared a lot, but more new faces have appeared. Obviously, there is an indescribable mysterious power that attracts movie lovers, regardless of the cold. Come here. Maybe next year or in the future, I can sit by the campfire with Woody and Quentin, arguing about my favorite movies."

The scenes portrayed in a few words made the reporters a little surprised.

"Len Li, do the disappearing familiar faces you just mentioned refer to Felicity Jones and Drake Doremus?"

After "Love Goes Crazy", the main creative staff have embarked on different life paths. Jennifer Lawrence became the second youngest Oscar queen in film history, and Lanly became the youngest EGOT in film history, and Felicity and De Lake is slightly different.

Felicity still works hard in the field of independent film. Last year, she and Drake collaborated in the second work "Inhalation". The leading actor is Guy-Pearce, who once starred in "Shards of Memory". Unfortunately, the work received mediocre response. In addition, she also starred in other works. Two independent films, but after all, they still failed to trigger a "crazy love" effect. The young actress's Hollywood journey is still going low-key.

It is worth mentioning that Felicity is rumored to have passed the audition and will soon be acting in "The Amazing Spider-Man 2".

Drake has gained a firm foothold in the independent film circle by virtue of "Love Is Crazy". From project investment to cast and cast, he has more choices. He first filmed a set of mini-series "Fantasy Heart Tour". ", and then filmed "Inhalation", but the word-of-mouth and feedback of the two works were far below expectations. The three years seemed a bit quiet, it seemed that it reached the peak early, and then it could only go downhill.

Despite this, Drake is still preparing for his new work, the investment is already in place, and now he is selecting actors. There are still many rumors in the industry.

Because Felicity and Drake have never left the independent film circle, so does Renly, and it is normal for reporters to have such associations.

In fact, Lan Li just said bluntly, but he did not expect the reporter to capture the details. He couldn't help but shook his head with a chuckle to express his denial, "No, no, what Felicity and Drake said, we occasionally still You can meet. Not long ago, I met Drake in Burbank. I know he is preparing for a new work. If the time is right, he will definitely come back to Park City again."

"The familiar faces I just mentioned refer to a group of movie fans." Lan Li did not cover up and revealed the answer directly, but the answer was completely beyond the reporter's expectation.

Lan Li simply further explained, "When I first came to Sundance, I met many lovely fans, many of whom accompanied me all the way, the first scene of "Drunk Country Folk Songs". Many fans have participated in it. In an instant, time passed really fast, I was growing, and they were also growing. If I remember correctly, now many of them have entered social life one after another. I regret to miss this year's Sundance."

The reporter's expression on the scene was a little strange. Someone couldn't help but raise their voice to ask ~www.novelhall.com~ You mean, do you miss your fans? "

Lan Li immediately reacted, smiled heartily, and said without mind, "I know, this sounds very official, as if I am deliberately trying to please the fans, trying to use this behavior to create a good image of me. , Haha. I also faintly feel that something is wrong now, but..."

After a slight pause, Lan Li continued to speak his true thoughts sincerely.

"On the day of the premiere of'Burst Drummer', I didn't see those familiar faces. It was inevitable that I was still a little bit lost. I still remember the names of many of them, Hope, Graham, William, Tessa... No All, but there are indeed some very impressive movie fan partners. We can be regarded as friends, at least I think so. But I think this is life. We all need to grow, and we need to learn to say goodbye. It’s just that we are welcoming a new face When I was in the hole, I still couldn't help but think of those old friends." Lan Li said briskly with a smile on his face.

Then he seemed to think of something, and he couldn't help but laughed out, "I read an article before, and it said that if we start to recall the past, this is the beginning of aging; so, does this mean that I have begun to become Hollywood veteran? Why do I find it a little weird. I regret bringing up this topic now."

The brisk self-joking has completed the transition in the quiet, without further extending the topic, but leaving those memories between each other, only those who have really experienced it can understand; the easy ridicule, let the reporters on the scene Unable to laugh collectively, the atmosphere of the closing ceremony became noisy again.

The misty sentimental lingering slowly at the fingertips, before it had time to settle down, disappeared amidst the bitterness of Park City and the excitement of the red carpet.
