Saving the world is not as good as chasing stars [US Entertainment]

Months have passed since the Oscars ceremony, but the turmoil caused by it is obviously not so easy to calm down.

The academy itself is already in a state of distress. In Europe, the three major international film festivals with higher artistic quality but less influence than the Oscars have come down one after another, which has made the academy council feel miserable——

The establishment of the Gay Palm Awards and the Queer Lion Awards, which specifically honor LGBT films, is enough to compare with the conservativeness of the Oscars.

But the Cannes Film Festival still seems to be dissatisfied with the compensation for its Rose de France. After the sixth Cannes International Film Festival ended successfully, on June 6, the French Ministry of Industry and Commerce, the organizer of the Cannes Film Festival, officially announced——

French actress Adjani will be invited to serve as the chairman of the jury for the seventh Cannes International Film Festival.

And this day is also her 25th birthday.

There is no doubt that Adjani is the youngest chairman of the jury since the three major European international film festivals have been held.

At the end of June of this year, the entire film world is discussing the crazy decision of the Cannes Film Festival——

——The only 25-year-old chairman of the jury of the three major European international film festivals?

--Jesus Christ!It's just that she lost an Oscar. Could it be that the French want to hold all the honors in front of her?

——The French have always been the most defensive, and Adjani is regarded as a god by the entire French media circles. Not to mention the youngest Cannes jury chairman, the Caesars Film Festival can't wait to award her the Superstar Award now.

——As a national idol and a peerless beauty recognized by the French, what misunderstanding do you have about Adjani's influence in France?

In early July, the jury members of the Seventh Cannes Film Festival were officially announced——

Chairman: Marguerite Adjani French producer and actor

Jury: Quentin Tarantino American director

Nanni Moretti Italian director

Director Mike Lee

Jeff Nathanson American screenwriter

Director Tsui Hark, Hong Kong, China

Gong Li Chinese actor

Ralph Fiennes British actor

As soon as the list came out, many people couldn't help worrying about whether Adjani could control the jury.

Not to mention the international director Quentin Tarantino, the other two Nanni Moretti and Mike Lee, who are notoriously skilled, especially in recent years, they overestimated themselves.

It is already foreseeable that when the official awards start next year, these two European directors will never obey Adjani, and their attitudes are either polite or not.

Adjani is the youngest chairman of the Cannes Film Festival in history. It is not easy to avoid being used, deceived, and extorting real power.

At the Seventh Cannes Film Festival, whether the chairman of the jury, Adjani, was defeated by the superfluous real power, or whether the strong and vigorous dominates everything can only be announced in the spring of next year. At this time, on July 2003, 7, Marguerite starred in The fantasy adventure masterpiece "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl" was released as scheduled.

After being slammed by the media for a long time, the first Disney film rated as PG-13 film was released and swept the world at a miraculous speed. Fans all over the world began to be crazy about Captain Jack.

Who would have thought that this adventure commercial movie, which was considered by the media all over the world to be old-fashioned and only for children who yearn for pirates, would go crazy in North America and earn nearly 8000 million at the box office!

It was not favored in the early stage, because Disney Pictures, which was ridiculed by all walks of life because of its high investment of 15 billion US dollars, was so overjoyed that it could not wait to start shooting a sequel immediately.

Before the release, the media and film critics who sarcastically sarcastically changed their tone completely——

"The film is suitable for all ages, family-style light-hearted humor mixed with a little nervous and scary, the best summer movie recommendation." - "USA Today"

"The Orchid Hand pirate captain and dark-haired aristocratic beauty will leave you wanting to leave the theater." - The Hollywood Reporter

"A terrific gangster movie, extraordinary, funny and spectacular." - BBC

"Johnny Depp and Margaret Adjani are the best reasons to see this movie." - The Washington Post

"If you're tired of summer movies, then "Pirates of the Caribbean" will definitely make you revel in Verbinski's pure cinematic art." - "Dallas Morning News Review"

"This film is a paradise for stunt fans, and the pirate series is about to take the world by storm." - "Houston Chronicle Review"

""Pirates of the Caribbean" is like the sea version of "Raiders of the Lost Ark". Johnny Depp becomes a pirate captain to conquer the world fans, and Adjani is the brightest jewel in the crown." - "Premier Magazine"

Not only has the reputation been good, but the box office has been soaring all the way. At the beginning of September, it reached 405 billion North American box office and 458 billion overseas box office, and the global box office exceeded 2003 million.

Disney Pictures was overjoyed, and randomly decided to rush to create a sequel script, and it is expected to spend half a billion dollars to shoot 2 and 3.

With the release of "Pirates of the Caribbean" at the global box office, Margaret's high-income dividend contract was once again pushed into the headlines by the media——

The 1000 million basic box office plus 20% box office dividends will bring Margo an income of 260 million US dollars.

God!That's even just box office dividends and doesn't include home video DVD revenue at all.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" is obviously an old-fashioned movie that was not favored by anyone before it was released and was ridiculed by all walks of life. Why did it turn up again, "small soldiers make great achievements", and even brought a terrifying 5000 million to the participating actress [-] million high income?

But at this moment, it is clear that no one is satirizing the "stupidly high" salary paid by Disney Pictures to Adjani. The total box office figures of the starring films in her hand have already shown that her magic power of attracting money is beyond doubt.

Major studios have handed out starring contracts one after another. It is obvious that all Hollywood scripts are now placed in front of her, and she is free to choose.

But to everyone's surprise, Margaret Adjani paid $300 million out of her own pocket for the copyright of the "Brokeback Mountain" movie script.

——Another same-sex movie? !

"Brokeback Mountain", adapted from the short story of the same name by Pulitzer Prize winner Anne Proulx, has been turned around several times, and many producers have refused to accept this low-cost romance film.

And Focus Pictures, which belongs to Universal Films under the name of Margot, will officially take over the film. Ang Lee, who is in the ranks of Hollywood A-level directors, will serve as the director of the film.

GoodMachine Films, the predecessor of Focus Features, started out with the first film "Pushing Hands" directed by Ang Lee. So far, it has arranged all Ang Lee's films, with a long history.

"Brokeback Mountain" will be produced by Adjani, but she has no plans to play any of the roles, and the whole of Hollywood can't help but speculate——

Margo is ready to fight Oscar again?

What's even more surprising is that the script she was interested in was not just the same-sex theme "Brokeback Mountain", which was an award-winning blockbuster——

Produced by Focus Features, Adjani serves as producer, and the films to be shot in the near future also include a little-known film written by Eric Brace and J. McKay Gruber. The first independently directed The Butterfly Effect.

Since 1996, the film has been rewriting and perfecting the script for 7 years. While Adjani is the producer, she will also play the leading role of the heroine Evans Teribo, a painful woman who always backfires. time traveler.

A same-sex theme?A sci-fi thriller?These are all deadly traps that must not be stepped on in order to win prizes.

The former "Brokeback Mountain" has at least the blessing of Hollywood A-level director Ang Lee, and the little-known Eric Brace and J. McKay Gruber in "The Butterfly Effect" are completely just horror movies. It's just a small screenplay of Death Comes.

If it was in the past, those in the Hollywood industry who were best at riding ups and downs would probably have started to sing bad news again, thinking that this is Adjani's "stupidest decision", and it will even lead to the end of her acting career.

But now that Oscar and the Weinstein brothers have been in bad luck one after another, and Oscar's "Fingering Love" is vaguely about to win the three highest awards in Europe, there are really few people jumping out to speak out.

——After all, the number of slaps in the face is so many that people want to cry without tears.

At this time, Margot was sitting in the extended limousine heading to the 60th Venice International Film Festival Awards Ceremony. Three bodyguards and assistants sat around her, watching the French beauty concentrate on reading psychology books.

In order to star in "The Butterfly Effect", Margaret has recently begun to study psychology, psychiatry and chaos theory extensively to ensure that she can play the role of time traveler Evans Teribo more smoothly.

The big-breasted sweetheart couldn't help reminding, "Reading in the car can easily cause symptoms such as dizziness and discomfort. There are still a few months before the launch of "Butterfly Effect". You don't need to push yourself so harshly."

"It doesn't mean that the script has been rewritten for seven years. The director should have memorized all the complicated settings by heart, and you don't need to spend such a long time understanding it, so that the film will present a more perfect effect." Uncle Wolf's tone is the same as usual , Those who didn't know thought that he was about to get angry violently, but in fact, Logan was just a girl in front of caring about his integrity.

Of the two big-breasted people, one was earnest and the other was blunt, so Margo had no choice but to obediently put down the book.

Venice in September is still sweltering. The addicted Grande Ward served Margaret with a glass of pomegranate-flavored sparkling champagne as a personal assistant, while the sweet-mouthed Bucky smiled and stuffed a cherry.

Margot looked at the blue-eyed, baby-faced ex-Winter Soldier with a bad masculinity, "You don't like plums recently, have you changed to cherries?"

Bucky choked, and before he could answer, the stretched limousine had already arrived at the red carpet of the awards ceremony.

Three thousand registered journalists were dressed in formal attire and gathered around the red carpet, and the arrival of Adjani immediately set off an unrivaled frenzy.

The champagne-gold silk floor-length gown perfectly outlined Margo's curvy figure, her black hair was like seaweed, and her exquisite facial features were so amazing that everyone couldn't bear to take their eyes off her face.

Photographers press the shutter one after another, expecting to witness this moment become a historical moment forever——

My God, this is Adjani's first trip to the Venice Film Festival. After she has won Oscar, Cannes, Berlin, Caesar, and Golden Globes, can she go to the film festival again today? One city, won the Venice actress, and became the first actor in history to achieve a grand slam?

Margo walked through the red carpet and entered the Venice Convention and Exhibition Center, preparing to take the elevator with four bodyguards and assistants, and went to the lounge for an interview temporarily.

Standing in the elevator, she watched the sides gradually close and was about to climb up when the elevator door suddenly opened again.

Then, several tall and strong white men walked in.

The leading man is exceptionally handsome, wearing a beautiful and straight military uniform, with a resolute and handsome appearance with a very German temperament.

And the tall and strong gentlemen behind him seemed to be looking forward to him, and at the same time had a terrifying and violent aura.

Margaret failed to perceive the danger, but the others in the elevator obviously did not—

The bodyguard team headed by the big-breasted sweetheart, and the Hydra star-chaser team headed by the well-dressed Baron Strucker, are in a tense atmosphere and are on the verge of breaking out.

Captain America blocked Margot behind him, watching the crowd, with a calm voice——

"Before we get started, does anyone want to get out?"

(Before we do, anyone want to get out?)

Loveless Crossbones Brock Rumlow: MMP, I had a hard time getting an invitation to the awards ceremony.
