Become a dramatist from today

On the evening of February 25th, the long-awaited closing ceremony for actors, directors, and producers was also the awards ceremony!

The red carpet of the closing ceremony was not as lively as the opening ceremony, because the invited guests were all members of the crew, and the celebrities invited by the brand and the people who attended the red carpet were not allowed to participate.

The ceremony was still held at the Cinema Palace. Although there were fewer people, the number of reporters and attention was only greater. Among other things, it was evident from the fact that Gunther was the host of the ceremony.

This host is well-known in Germany and even in German-speaking circles. He is well-known for hosting programs such as "IQ Test" and "Millionaire".

Gunther first talked about his mentality as a live host, "I have to arrive on time. This is my job. The whole world knows that we Germans are punctual just like the subway..."

The choice of words and sentences is interesting, and at least the atmosphere to start the show is good.

Immediately after announcing the start of the awards ceremony, this process is similar to that of other film festivals. If you want to find a difference, it is that Berlin has more awards than Cannes.

The former's official main unit + secondary unit + off-site unit has more than 60 awards, and because of the Berlin Film Festival's concept of "seeking novelty and youth", there are some changes every year.

The awards for this unit will start first, and not all unit awards are eligible to be on the podium. Many off-site units have no cards.

For example, the Berlin Morgan Post Readers’ Jury Award and the ARTEKino International Award.

The awards from first to last are Best Documentary, GWFF Award, Short Film Competition Unit, New Generation Children Unit, New Generation Youth Unit, Adventure Unit, etc. Huang Baiyou was a little overwhelmed.

To explain a little bit, the two units of children and youth do not mean that the director is a child or youth, but that the main purpose of the film is to explore the hearts of these two groups of people.

Just like "Sweet Like", the best film at this year's Children's Crystal Bear Awards, it tells the story of a fifteen-year-old aborigine.

"There are so many awards, I'm almost numb to the word award." Huang Baiyou felt a little stiff. He didn't know when the camera would catch it, so he still had to pay attention to his image.

Don't think Huang is tight, he is quite loose. Some actors' bodies are stiffer than rocks.

"It's also market demand. [Be applauded first, then sold, and the sales will come after the awards]. If a new director wants to get more investment and win more box office, winning the award at a well-known film festival for his first film is the right way. The big one is Fifth Avenue, only in this way can new talents participate in the global film distribution system," said the producer of Joker.

"You have to be famous first... it's not easy to be a director." Huang Baiyou nodded.

Jeanne said, “This also means there are more stages, and talented creators will definitely emerge.”

As one of the most famous female directors in the world, Jeanne's vision is very different from that of ordinary people.

"Although the Cannes Film Festival is one of the three largest in Europe and the stingiest in terms of awards, it is gradually increasing. People need recognition, and directors also need recognition to attract investment." Jeanne said.

Several people did not delve further into this topic. Back to the topic, in addition to the unit awards, there are Teddy Bear Awards and Compass Perspective, Panorama Audience Awards, etc. These are not included in the unit.

In short, a long hour passed before the awards ceremony progressed to the main competition unit! Huang Baiyou also exercised her muscles and bones. Fortunately, Wu Xiaoxiao didn't follow her, otherwise she would definitely not be able to bear it due to her active temperament.

"It's coming." Huang Baiyou cheered up, as did everyone present, including the reporters in the film palace. The winners of the sub-category can say "the future is yours", but there is no enthusiasm now.

The Golden Bear Award for Best Film, the Jury Prize, the Best Director Award, the Best Protagonist Award, the Best Screenplay Award, the Best Supporting Actor Award, and the Outstanding Artistic Contribution Award, a total of seven and eight awards.

Except for the Golden Bear Award in the main competition unit, all other awards are Silver Bear Awards. This has been popularized before. The above order is the order of media and public attention.

There are also exceptions. For example, this year's Best Protagonist Award was ranked highest.

One version of the Berlin Film Festival that is ahead of Venice and Cannes is that starting in 2021, the Best Actor and Best Actress will be cancelled. Only the Best Actor will be selected, and two will be selected in each session.

The Best Screenplay Award was won by Huang Baiyou's "Cake in Prison", and the Best Supporting Actor Award was won by the actors of "The Priest" and "Anna" respectively. One of the winners was an old actor in his fifties, and the other She is a young Swedish girl of sixteen years old.

"Anna" plays the daughter of the heroine Anna, which is full of talent. In addition, the three major European film festivals often have such good talents. Not to mention the Best Supporting Actress of Seventeen, nine-year-old actresses are all normal.

"Like Wen Yubing, God chases actors who feed them." Huang Baiyou recalled the content of "Anna". This girl is indeed very natural, and she is not natural in her true nature.

The Best Protagonist Award was announced. The first winner is Anna's Yilan, also known as "Xiao Dao" and "Dao Sister" on the Chinese Internet. It's not clear why she has this nickname.

"Anna", which she starred in, is completely uncontroversial in this year's film.

"Thank you to the jury for awarding me this award, which has allowed me to prove something." Yilan said, "At least professionally, I have won."

"Finally, thank you to those who support me." Yilan finished her brief speech and left the stage holding the trophy.

Some naughty reporters in the venue, I won’t name them, because many of them pointed their cameras at Sam in the audience. Yes, it was his ex-husband, and the two were feuding.

It was also nominated for the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor, but Elayne won without any suspense, and Sam lost without any suspense, so she said it was no problem for her to win.

Hey, there’s something to talk about tomorrow’s news! The reporter was thinking to himself, while Sam still had a polite smile on his face, but his heart was almost unbearable.

Then the awards were presented, and the second Best Actor Award - Standing Huang, was also uncontroversial.

"Standing Huang, although he is very young, his eyes can always see through the script and society, and he will always pursue details that ordinary people cannot pay attention to. Arthur in "Joker" is crazy, humble, desperate, twisted, evil, Horrible. Thank you Standing Huang for giving us a wonderful performance." The awarding guest was a veteran German actor who won the Laura Award twice in the 1990s.

The Laura Award is Germany's highest film award, and the naming method of this award is completely different from other film awards. If you are interested, you can check it out.

After the veteran actor finished telling the jury's evaluation according to the hand card, the audience burst into applause and welcomed Huang Baiyou to the stage to receive the award.

"Whoosh-"

Winner of Best Actor at the three major European film festivals, Cannes, Venice and Berlin, a Grand Slam!

Huang Baiyou became the second person in history.
