"Is that why you created 'The Beast' in the first place?"

This was Joel's question. In those words that couldn't wait, there were hidden enthusiasm and excitement, and it was surging, which reminded Renly of the first time the two met in Berlin.

Joel was always like that, impulsive, restless, urgent. On the negative side, it's a lack of control; on the positive side, it's pure simplicity.

People always like to use the first impression to define a stranger; however, many times, the first impression is too one-sided. The problem is that most people have no patience to continue to explore other possibilities behind the first impression.

Facing Joel's wistful gaze, Renly nodded in confirmation.

"On the road of chasing oneself, people see the glory and glory after success, but do not see the loneliness and loneliness before success. On that lonely place with no way out, there are too many helpless trapped. Their souls, they persevered, fought, and struggled, using their own flesh and blood to create beauty and crown. It was never about ballads or movies, but about themselves.”

"I mean, 'Don Quixote' was a success, and the Coen brothers were a success, so people started paying attention, it's a ballad album, it's an independent film, why choose ballad? What? But, what about failure? What if we fail?"

Then no one cares, whether it's folk songs or independent films, it doesn't matter anymore.

Not only Joel and Ethan, but even Renly himself showed a slight surprise - he and the Coen brothers didn't even count as a nod acquaintance, suddenly discussing such a profound topic, the rhythm of the conversation I feel a little strange, and I always feel that the progress is not quite right.

This is normal if the context of the conversation is in Europe. Even two strangers who don't know each other at all may express their opinions constantly, insist on their own opinions, conduct in-depth games and exchanges, even blushing because of a political, philosophical or artistic topic. This is a kind of culture 's atmosphere.

But, this is America.

The point wasn't Renly's gushing, but the Coen brothers' immediate reaction.

After a short period of astonishment, Joel's eyes lit up slightly, and became brighter and brighter, as if he could see the soul through those eyes, gradually becoming alive, full of vitality, and that moment of blooming. The brilliance instantly made Joel Cohen's ordinary appearance different.

Good-looking skins are the same, and interesting souls are one in a thousand. Especially in the art world. The soul living in the skin is full of talents, and can always burst out a unique temperament, which makes people ignore the external image and simply and deeply fascinated by it.

Tony Kaye, George Slender, Alfonso Cuaron, and now the Coen brothers, all have different personalities and temperaments, but all share similar traits.

"It's him," Joel said without warning, patted his thigh decisively, and then shook Ethan's shoulder vigorously, "Ethan, I'm telling you, it's him. He's the inspiration! You see. Now? He's the inspiration!"

Joel was shaking so hard that Ethan's glasses nearly fell off.

Ethan had to hold on to the frame and gave Renly an apologetic smile, "Sorry, he's always too excited."

"Excited, of course I'm excited. We found it!" Joel was still immersed in his own thoughts, unable to extricate himself, and then he saw Renly's unexplained expression, and immediately moved forward excitedly. At one point, the whole person fell directly to the ground.

But he didn't care about himself at all, grabbed Renly's knee, and his voice began to tremble uncontrollably with excitement, "We are thinking of a folk singer movie, in you, we found inspiration, in With 'Don Quixote', we found inspiration. God! We found it! Really found it!"

A movie invitation is actually a movie invitation.

Unexpected, but within reason.

Said it was an accident, it was because the first meeting of Renly and the Coen brothers in Berlin was not pleasant, when the Coen brothers contacted Andy, Renly's first guess was the Sundance Film Festival, through the bridge of independent films, put down The personal impressions of the two sides reunited in Park City to contribute to the advancement of the industry.

It's common sense, that's because after going through ups and downs and ups and downs, Renly's absolute strength has been recognized countless times, especially after the box office success of "Edge of Tomorrow", there will be more and more people who take the initiative to extend the olive branch. , studios, producers, directors, screenwriters, etc., will gradually become the norm.

After Joel revealed the real purpose, Renly and Andy quickly exchanged glances, showing a look of understanding.

The suspense was finally revealed, the doubts and guesses dissipated, and the tense and jerky atmosphere eased.

The corners of Andy's mouth rose slightly, and he closed his jaw invisibly in appreciation; Roy and Nathan also both relaxed. After the truth surfaced, they were just a little surprised, and then the two of them revealed Naturally calm, he doesn't seem too excited about the Coen brothers' initiative.

The Coen brothers are not only leaders in the American independent film field, but also a force to be reckoned with on the world film scene. Among all Renly's current works, the Coen Brothers are undoubtedly the biggest and the best.

director--

Tony Kaye and Paul Greengrass aren't top-notch; Steven Spielberg is just a producer on "War in the Pacific," not a director.

Nonetheless, after a magical and glorious year, the collaboration of big-name directors should be said to be a matter of course, as did Alfonso Cuaron, as did the Coen brothers.

However, Renly could not agree.

In fact, personally, Renly really liked the Coen brothers' style.

"Frozen", "Three Kings Escape from Prison", "The Murder of Green Toes", "No Country for Old Men", etc., these are all outstanding works, satirizing social reality in black humor, and the cold and biting cruelty is hidden in the clouds and water. In the shots and pictures, the easy-going and easy-going temperament carries a kind of banter and ridicule, which always endows the work with a unique temperament.

Objectively speaking, the Coen brothers are directors with a very distinctive style imprint, but they are not directors who are good at tuning/teaching actors.

Among their works, more relied on the self-interpretation and performance of the actors, Francis McDormand of "Frozen", Javier Bardem of "No Country for Old Men", and Jeff Burden of "The Earth and Thunder" Regis and so on. The performance style of the co-actors will largely affect the completion of the work.

But for actors, this is undoubtedly an opportunity to challenge themselves, to challenge their ability to understand the script, deepen the connotation, explore the director, interpret the role, and control the performance. Within the framework of the Coen brothers' style, interpretation and interpretation of their own content, such a collaborative process is bound to be very interesting.

Renly was more than happy to work with the Coen brothers if possible, even eager to try; but unfortunately, Renly's schedule was full.

The West End and Broadway tours of "Les Miserables" will not end in the short term, and it will be in October at the earliest; after that, the filming of "Gravity", the filming cycle cannot be estimated for the time being, but there will definitely be no gaps during the year. And the schedule arrangement is temporarily unable to see the end.

So, even if he was reluctant, even if he was helpless, Renly had to refuse.

However, Joel didn't leave any gaps for interjection at all. After opening the chat box, he couldn't stop at all and continued to talk, "Unintentionally, I saw a Grammy performance, oh, no, it should be The video of your acceptance speech, the one you gave after you won Album of the Year, brought back memories in my head, those memories of the 1960s."

As he talked, Joel began to dance with his hands and feet, his expressions were rich, his eyes were bright, and his excitement could not be restrained.

"It was a time when folk singers were surging, when countless great songs were born, they were not only musical achievements, but also witnesses of history and society, those about society, about politics/politics, about culture, about life. Fragments, all hidden in the lyrics, literally many of the singers were poets and really changed the cultural makeup of American society as a whole."

The words are like a beating melody, colliding between the lips and teeth, stirring up surging emotions, and the frenzy can be deeply felt between the lines.

Not only Joel, but Ethan, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but arouse his emotions and joined the ranks of those who spoke, "Under that background, the whole society is in turmoil, countless people, I mean literally countless people. , are eager to be part of this craze, and it seems that as long as he can sing, he wants to be a folk singer."

"It doesn't matter who you are, the most important thing is that you are a part of this wave of folk songs." This seemingly mundane sentence hides too many deep meanings. When Ethan said these words, there was also an amazing enthusiasm and madness in the depths of his eyes, which defined his existence as an art creator.

Joel took over the topic seamlessly, waving his clenched fists uncontrollably, "Now, in you, in that award speech, we once again glimpsed the glory and glory of those years. Brilliant, we hope to make a film about folk music that tells the story of an entire generation of musicians, but also the story of an entire era of waves."

"Honestly, it's unimaginable that in the 21st century, there are still people who are still clinging to a piece of pure land in their hearts; what's even more commendable is that you are only twenty-two years old, God, this is really incredible. So , Joel said, why don't we make a work about this young man? I nodded in agreement."

In the end, Ethan looked at Renly with burning eyes, and his tone was full of eagerness and excitement, "We made a work based on you as a prototype."
