[US Entertainment] Best Director

The screening of "Sagan" caused a sensation in France.

The influx of favorable comments and unsparing praise from major media magazines made "Sagan" quickly reach a high score of 9.8 on IMDB.

Jacques Rivette even commented on imdb with his own tuba.

"Julietta Binoche is amazing, but even more amazing than Juliet is the wonderful skill of the director."

As soon as this remark was made, it undoubtedly set off a huge wave in the French film industry.

Who is Jacques Rivette?

Maybe laymen don't know it, but insiders understand it very well.

One of the leading figures of the new wave, he is also known as "pioneering" at the same time as Godard, and is a "national treasure director" in France.

What does a movie that even Jacques Rivette can praise unceasingly look like?

People in the film industry who failed to get the invitation letter for the screening ceremony expressed their curiosity.

Immediately afterwards, the first-line French actors led by Melanie Rolland, Marion Cotillard, Romain Dulis, and Jean Gabon all posted their invitation letters on the public media, expressing their Love for Sagan.

For a while, whether or not he got the screening tickets for "Sagan" became a label of whether an actor's status in France was solid, and the topic level of "Sagan" quickly surpassed all other movies in the same period. Movie!In just one day, 600 million pre-booked tickets for the premiere were sold!

A literary film!The pre-sale of the premiere is 600 million copies a day!Simply unimaginable!

Luc Besson couldn't close his mouth when he smiled.

And IMDb's high score of 9.8 has also successfully attracted the attention of Hollywood.

Quentin Tarantino is having a private date with a group of Hollywood bigwigs in a restaurant in Los Angeles at this time.

Quentin Tarantino wears a pair of small sunglasses, not afraid of big things.

"Hey Frank, I heard your big hit was surpassed by a French film on IMDB?"

Frank Delubon, who once directed "The Shawshank Redemption", took a mouthful of tuna burger without being surprised, slowly wiped his mouth, and asked.

"Which one?"

"One called Sagan," Quentin said.

"Sagan? Sounds like a French name."

Frank Darabont took out his phone and Googled it.

He raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"The English girl who made Letters from Iwo Jima last year directed it?"

"you recognize?"

"do not know."

Frank closed the phone and raised his eyebrows.

"But I have seen her "Letter from Iwo Jima", which is full of American literature and art. I really didn't expect that she would go back to Europe to make a movie. I always thought she would take over Leo and Kate's "Road to Revolution."

"That British girl who made Letters from Iwo Jima made a French film?" Martin Scorsese was a little confused when he heard Frank's words just after entering the room.

He has an impression of the young British female director of "Letters from Iwo Jima". You must know that his previous "The Departed" won two Oscars for Best Director and Best Picture. With a companion film to Eastwood's "Flags of Our Fathers," he won Best Picture, which should belong to "The Departed."

For this reason, Martin Scorsese went to the theater to watch this film.

Undeniably excellent.

Mild and rich American literary style.

The lines in the mirror are full of spiritual energy overflowing.

And such an "American" director made a French film?

Has she mastered the sharp and avant-garde style of France?

"What's that new French movie called?" Martin Scorsese asked.

"Sagan," said Quentin.

Martin Scorsese took out his mobile phone and asked his agent to buy tickets for him, but was quickly informed that the theater did not have this movie at all.

"...isn't it showing?"

"No, there was a screening just now." Quentin blinked.

"......"

Martin Scorsese clicks on Google.

I was surprised to find that the IMDb score of this niche French biographical film is as high as 9.8 points. Even if it is only an internal screening score, the screening itself has an "insider" nature. All the invited and rated people are from the industry. How much the rating will drop in the later period depends on the super high reputation of film critics.

Remembering that there is Frank Darabont who has occupied the top spot of IMDb all the year round, Martin Scorsese glanced at him with interest.

Just picked up the tuna burger again and took a bite, and then found Frank Delaboni with strange eyes "..."

Suddenly there was a tongue smash in the air.

Of course, it's Quentin Tarantino, who's not afraid to mess up the little shades.

Frank Delaboni suddenly felt the need to save face for himself.

"It's just screening, how many people commented in total? The current rating of 9.8 doesn't mean anything."

Quentin raised his eyebrows, and continued speaking without fear of death.

"You got 9.8 on IMDb back then?"

Frank Delaboni “….”

No.

Because he didn't have a screen at all.

Quentin clicked again.

Frank felt it was time to teach this arrogant old boy a lesson.

"How is your new director's Grinding Chamber?"

"......"

What's the matter?

Down the street.

There was a sudden silence in the air.

After a long time, Eastwood, who had been eating melons for a long time, wiped his mouth.

"So, do you have an appointment for the premiere of 'Sagan'?"

"Is there a premiere location in Los Angeles?" Frank raised his eyebrows after a meal with Quentin, who was refreshed.

"No."

"Then talk about a chicken." Quentin said after recovering some vitality.

Of course, in the end Eastwood's premiere was not agreed upon.

Quentin Tarantino quietly bought a plane ticket and flew to Paris after finishing the secret meal of the bosses.

On the day of the premiere, Quentin came to the theater wearing a hat and small sunglasses.

Among the short-sleeved and short-sleeved audience, Quentin's sexy cashmere fur was particularly conspicuous and attracted everyone to watch.

But Quentin himself felt nothing about it.

I just feel that my charm is infinite, and someone secretly took a photo with me wrapped up tightly.

So Quentin, who was in a good mood, posed a noble and glamorous pose in front of everyone's mobile phone cameras.

The moment Eastwood, Frank and Martin Scorsese opened the theater door, they saw the famous Hollywood director Quentin Tarantino who was wearing a flamboyant cashmere hat and smirking at the camera.

"...He can't say it." It was Martin Scorsese with a black line on his face.

"No, he just said 'that's a dick,'" Frank concluded deadpan.

Eastwood, who eats melons, still didn't express his opinion, but just stared at the bright cashmere hat in the crowd silently.

Quentin Tarantino, who didn't realize that his whereabouts had been exposed, still enjoyed the crowd "looking up" happily.
