What is the essential difference between European films and American films? To make money, not to make money? Art, not art? The real difference lies in the foundation, the foundation of the precipitation of ideas such as history, culture, philosophy, and art.

For example, the lines in French films are more or less philosophical; for example, the operation of the camera in Italian films is always rooted in the style of realism; for example, German films have an impact on political/political, social, and historical issues. The sensibility and perceptiveness can permeate different types of films. Even the pure entertainment-oriented popcorn movie is no exception. The writing of the lines, the setting of the characters, and the direction of the story, these frameworks can more or less feel different backgrounds.

Europe has gone through a long history of precipitation and turmoil, and these ideological changes, deeply rooted, clearly differentiate their artistic creations from those of the United States. These so-called "inheritances" are lackluster in American assembly-line movies.

Therefore, European films always exclude Hollywood productions. Even if the Cannes Film Festival has become Hollywood's outpost in Europe due to commercial considerations, Cannes film critics are always harsh and critical of Hollywood. American filmmakers need countless efforts to gain a firm foothold in Europe, and even gain recognition.

Andy Rodgers arrived in Berlin early because of this consideration. For actors from art films, the recognition and support of the European market is extremely important; it will then become an important bargaining chip for art actors to go to the next level after they return to Hollywood and open a new chapter in their careers.

The most typical is Sean Penn. This bad boy actor, although he started in Hollywood, but the American film circle has never been very interested in him. Instead, the three major European film festivals have kindly opened the door. In ten years, he has won Berlin, Cannes, The best actor of the three major Venice Film Festivals, he only gained a firm foothold in Hollywood after completing the Grand Slam, and has twice won the Oscar.

Now, in an extraordinary way, Renly has managed to win the favor of European journalists, at least a positive first impression, which is too rare and too unexpected. Next, let's watch the movie "Transcendence".

"Renly, may I ask you, if you have the chance, would you like to go to China to promote the movie?" The reporter from China, before everyone came back to their senses, asked again, subconsciously, he still chose question in Chinese. At the Berlin Film Festival, interviewing Hollywood stars in Chinese was a wonderful feeling.

Renly also found it amazing. He passed through the previous life and this life. He sat on the stage, the soul hidden under the skin was still Chinese, and then he answered a Chinese question in English. In a trance, Renly recalled the lyric from "Cleopatra" again:

"The only gift God gave me was a life and a divorce, but I read the script and the costumes were just right, so I would play my part well."

The smile on the corners of his mouth rose involuntarily, "Yes, I am very happy." Renly nodded and gave a positive answer, "Actually, I have been looking forward to going to China, it is a magical land. I thought I had a chance this summer, but unfortunately I missed it and I can only wait for the next time."

Without waiting for the voice to fall, "Crash", the reporters at the scene raised their right hands again in an instant, interviewing this young actor is really an interesting thing, like searching for treasures, going down little by little Dig, there are always surprises. Bustlingly, the conversation revolved around Renly again.

Before I knew it, the press conference, which was originally planned to end in 45 minutes, lasted for an hour, and there was still no sign of it ending. The host who was standing beside reminded it twice before and after with his witty answers and lively atmosphere. Their enthusiasm could not fade away. Looking at the watch again, the host said helplessly, "Last question! After this question is over, the press conference will end!" piled up.

In a forest of arms at the scene, Tony made a choice. It was a young female reporter, who seemed to be under 30 years old. She asked a general question, but it was enough to satisfy the reporters on the scene, "I It's Stephanie from The Times. I would like to ask the creators what is the most impressive part of the film, and I hope every member of the crew can answer."

Cunning questions, but the reporters at the scene all whistled to express their approval; the host standing by the side was very helpless, he could only shake his head, and had to say loudly, "We have limited time, we can only listen to Tony and I'm very sorry for Renly's answer."

In the wailing of disappointment at the scene, Tony replied with an old urchin-like smile on his face, "Mad, Renly is a lunatic." Tony said nonchalantly, the crew members had already He laughed cheerfully, while the reporters in the audience were full of question marks.

Tony turned a blind eye, and expressed his views seriously, "During the performance, during the filming, Renly was a complete lunatic, he always pushed himself to the extreme, and sometimes, I was able to It's a wonderful process to get creative inspiration from his performances, and it's the first time in my directing career over the years."

Renly couldn't help but smile and chuckled, "The answer to this question ends here. Tony said what I wanted to say, and I can't say it now, Tony is also a lunatic. Otherwise, tomorrow at the Berlin Film Festival 's official magazine is about to say, this is a movie of two lunatics, I

Think, it's not very good for the box office. "

The witty and humorous tone made laughter burst out again, and the reporters couldn't help but laugh.

After a short pause, Renly continued, "Actually, the part that impressed me the most about the whole movie was the original intention of Carl and Tony. They focused their attention on a special group, hoping to reflect some of the status quo. , I also want to explore some issues. In my opinion, this is very rare, and it has become the soul of the whole film. For me, this gives me the strength to perform, and it also makes this collaboration process become Extraordinarily special."

There was no gags, no joking or cursing, but a sincere statement. The reporters at the scene fell into silence and looked at Renly attentively and earnestly.

Renly glanced at the press conference and said with a smile, "It's finally a bit of a Berlin Film Festival feeling now." Somber, profound, and composed.

Such ridicule wandered around in the reporters' minds. Applause, whistles and laughter sounded at the same time, and the entire press conference came to an end in such an atmosphere.

The main creators of the crew left the scene in a row, while the reporters still stayed where they were, exchanging opinions and sharing their views.

"This is really a special actor. In my impression, it seems that I haven't seen such a type of actor for many years. It is humorous, energetic, and at the same time gentlemanly, with both heritage and wisdom."

"Isabelle-huppert?"

"No, Huppert is more low-key. Hall still has the energy of a young man. He is willing to star in a movie like 'Fast and Furious 5', which is different."

...

"He actually knows Italian? It's conceivable that he will be the darling of the audience at the Venice Film Festival."

"Yes, last year's 'Love Crazy' did not attend the Venice Film Festival, and now it seems that it is really embarrassing. He should be more suitable for Venice than Cannes."

"The most incredible thing is that he actually knows Chinese? That's a language that God can't learn! I'm even more curious about his performance in the Asian market, you know, Tom Cruise, Johnny Depp, Those actors have huge followings in Asia; young people like Renly Hall have really limited influence."

"No no, did you forget? Leonardo DiCaprio! I mean Leonardo DiCaprio in 1997!"

"Ha ha!"

...

The bustling conversation, brisk and joyful, comfortable and hot, could clearly feel that the reporters at the Berlin Film Festival left a deep impression on Renly. Renly's performance in Europe for the first time was really eye-catching, and the short press conference was not enough to give people a deep understanding of the actor; but luckily, beyond the film festival, they still had plenty of time, Learn about Renly's work, learn about Renly's preferences, and learn about Renly's real stuff.

At the same time, Renly and his party left the press conference. Today is only the first day of their arrival at the Berlin Film Festival. The premiere of "Transcendence" is scheduled for tomorrow; but this does not mean that today will be easy. It was a series of official activities, including interviews with official magazines, interviews with official cooperative media, shooting of publicity photos, recording of official videos, etc. It was packed all day, but it was still not possible to complete it. It is estimated to be busy until late at night.

Renly was chatting with Tony with his head down, talking about the interesting news of the press conference just now, when there was a clutter of footsteps behind him, and eager calls could be heard in the distance, "Wait, wait. Renly! "

Subconsciously, Renly and his party stopped, but before they had time to turn around, five or six staff members in black suits greeted them and blocked the pace of the approaching people. They were professional and polite. Said, "The press conference has ended, and the next interview will be carried out according to the appointment time."

"No, I'm not trying to interview." Through the crowd, Renly could see the figure of the person coming, carrying a camera and a briefcase, looking like a reporter, "I just want a Renly autograph. Not for work, just a personal request, okay? Please!"

"Renly?" Tony said in confusion, signaling for Renly to leave. Rolling around in Hollywood for so many years, he has long been used to such scenes, and they can't take care of everyone.

Renly hesitated for a moment, and finally said loudly, "No problem, it's my honor."
