This year's Toronto International Film Festival starts on September 11 and is expected to last for 11 days, ending on September 21.
Different from the three major European film festivals, the Toronto International Film Festival is a typical non competition Film Festival with only exhibition. However, it may also be true that even if this year is the 22nd, the influence of the Toronto International Film Festival is still limited, even less than that of the Sundance Film Festival.
Today is the third day of the opening of the Toronto Film Festival. After the premiere of "Titanic" yesterday, the news of high praise has just burst on the world's major mainstream media, and Denise Entertainment's new world film industry will usher in the premiere of another important film.
The ghost record.
An important sign that danielis entertainment group no longer retains its spare power is that the three brands of danielis pictures, new world pictures and gaomen pictures no longer accommodate each other's schedules, but can arrange their own projects and even compete with each other.
A film festival in downtown Toronto, officially designated cinema.
It's Saturday afternoon.
Compared with yesterday's Titanic premiere in Venice, even if the new world film team also had high hopes, the premiere lineup of ghost is much smaller.
Fortunately, with the appeal of Danielle Reese entertainment, there are still many stars and media to support, so the red carpet link is still set up.
It's just a lot of simplification. The entry time is only half an hour, and there is not much deliberate distinction between the media area and the fan area.
It wasn't until six o'clock that several creators of ghost show appeared on the red carpet. In order to support the newcomers and lead the team in person, new world president Denny Morris aroused some enthusiasm from the media on both sides.
After some interaction, Denny Morris brought Lin Yibin, Amy Adams and others into the cinema, and other media reporters and fans with tickets outside the red carpet began to enter.
Two beautiful Slavic girls mixed in.
This is the sister of gelina banchikova and EVA banchikova.
Simon stayed here for one night at the opening of the film festival the day before yesterday. The banhikova sisters and the mother of the two girls, Natalia, were picked up ahead of time. Simon left in an emergency yesterday because gelina was coquettish and was allowed to play here for a week by the man.
There are not many places to play in Toronto. Since it happens that a film festival is being held, we have come to join in the fun.
Natalia doesn't like to join in the fun. She seldom even goes out, so she has only two sisters.
As for the tickets for the premiere of ghost, although no one wants to get them, there is no shortage of benefits for the women around Simon.
After entering the cinema, the two girls found a place to sit down, and the two Wai maids, one on the left and the other on the right, immediately sat down, so that some of the opposite sex who wanted to chat up with each other had to walk away.
Seeing the shriveled appearance of some men around, gelina couldn't help smiling.
The little Eva banhikova, who was still not very long, turned her lips slightly when she saw her elder sister. She thought of another thing and asked, "elder sister, you don't still have the card that the star scout just gave you, do you?"
Gelina looked around curiously, smelling speech slightly raised her chin and shook her head: "lost it."
EVA nodded with satisfaction.
"If only we could be stars, but Simon didn't seem to agree," she said
EVA slightly tilts her face and looks at her sister. If she can be a star with only one face, she certainly has no problem. Unfortunately, it certainly can't be with only one face. As for her sister, she is almost the same as her mother, except for her face.
Of course, with their man's power in Hollywood, if they really want to be stars, even if they only have faces, it's OK.
Obviously, men don't plan to.
Eva was even able to figure it out.
In this world, a lot of rich and powerful people like to be stars, and even in order to satisfy their vanity, they deliberately praise the women around them as stars. However, he is obviously not like this, or, more accurately, the man's standing position is too high, so he doesn't need any stars to decorate himself. As for those powerful people who get a sense of achievement by being stars, they put it in his place It's even more of a joke.
If that man wants to, he can bring out a lot of stars.
Since it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether the women around you are stars or not. Even, with some collection ideas, they will deliberately keep the women around you from appearing in public.
They have three mothers and three daughters. That's about it.
Since it is certain that a man is in this state of mind, EVA will not do anything that may annoy him, but also try to avoid the stupid sister around him.
In the dim light of the hall, EVA put her mind away and looked at the big screen.
After the opening of the new world film industry, the pictures go straight to the main topic, but compared with other films, the pictures on the big screen are obviously a little rough.EVA didn't feel anything, and galena couldn't help complaining: "what's this?"
EVA is too lazy to explain.
If the older sister had been a little more attentive, she would have known about the movie.
The first IREC movie.
Since it's a non professional hand-held digital camera, it's strange that the picture is not like this.
In the screening hall, even if we have known about it in advance, at first sight, some viewers can't help but complain similar to galena when they see pictures that are not even as good as the quality of TV series, which makes the front row feel a little nervous by the restless film creators around.
If they don't get the audience's approval, they will be busy for half a year.
As a director, Lin Yibin is better, because he has signed three film contracts with danilisi entertainment, and can feel the importance danilisi entertainment attaches to him.
As a new movie hero and heroine mood is not so relaxed. Even though they have already signed the agency, if the film doesn't even splash, they can only climb from the bottom step by step.
With this in mind, Amy Adams even subconsciously holds Jessica chastan's hand beside her.
The two girls of the same age have similar low-level background, similar rough life experience, and even similar appearance. They are not so brilliant. Therefore, in the process of film shooting, they naturally become a pair of good sisters. Originally, the two women had secretly talked about whether Simon westero would be interested in them when he chose them.
If the answer is yes, even if two people have been exposed together in the past two years, it's someone's preference, and they can't get it.
Unfortunately, until the last meeting at the opening party the day before yesterday, the high-ranking young tycoon did not say anything.
It also means that they can only climb on their own.
This film seems to be an experimental work. Compared with other Hollywood films, the cost of this film is very low. However, they understand that this is a very important threshold.
Because Denise entertainment attaches great importance to this project, and even it is rumored that Simon westero himself provided the idea.
As long as they can succeed, they will become famous.
Fortunately, the commotion in the screening hall did not ferment too much and soon calmed down.
On the big screen, with the dialogue between the hero and heroine, the general background of the story is displayed in front of the audience.
This is a young couple who just lived together. Because they found that there was a supernatural event in the apartment, the boy bought an IREC digital camera and made some modifications to record the supernatural event in the apartment for a long time.
From the transformation of IREC digital camera, we can see that the film is serious in details.
Of course, it is also to prevent some people from using this detail in the future, accusing that the IREC used by the crew is not the official IREC system publicized.
As for the real situation, in the boy's words, he asked his friends to help with the modification. The "friend" here is actually a professional engineer of tincobail. However, if anyone can pick out this "thorn" in the future, Denise entertainment will also recognize it.
Simon's detailed arrangement is mainly to avoid the mistake of "the witch Blair".
The original time and space of "the witch Blair" is completely the success of using fraudulent propaganda. If the film distribution company is not a small fledgling company, but a big seven company, it is difficult to say whether anyone will jump out to claim compensation. The westerners are prone to use the practice of lawyers. This kind of thing can be done completely.
Moreover, even if the former "the witch Blair" was not entangled by the lawsuit, it was still destroyed after it set up the type of fake documentary.
Because if you don't consider the deceptive publicity of the film, "the witch Blair" is really bad.
In contrast, "ghost record" is a really outstanding pseudo documentary film. In order to establish the type of pseudo documentary directly through this project, Simon pays great attention to all aspects of details.
In the projection hall.
The film also lived up to Simon's expectations.
After the initial commotion, the audience quickly enters the plot with the interaction between the male and female protagonists.
Compared with the original rough cut version of 130 minutes, the final film, according to Simon's requirements, is exactly 100 minutes, in which the prefix of the story is 20 minutes, which is 10 minutes shorter than the rough cut version, which is exactly the same as yesterday's "Titanic" prelude.
20 minutes is a good prelude.
It can not only fully explain the background of the story, but also get to the point before the audience loses patience.
On the big screen, it's the ghost road that starts from the 21st minute.
The first night, of course, did not happen too strange things, but just the sense of urgency brought by the still pictures from a special angle, has already raised the mood of the audience.
Then, the story goes on.From the initial door automatic switch, to the heroine began to sleepwalk, and then to the hero and heroine spread the obvious powder is confused by unknown things, the mood of the audience is constantly hanging high.
Until the end.
After the hero found his girlfriend sleepwalking again, he chased her out, but did not appear again. Only the strange looking heroine appeared again in the camera as if she had drifted into the bedroom, holding a bloody knife in her hand. The strangely shaped heroine wanders in the bedroom for a short time, finally looks at the camera, and then pounces on her whole face.
Click -
in the sound of breaking, the movie stops abruptly.
"Ah
In the screening hall, the audience who had been repressed for more than an hour, with the heroine's last action, someone finally screamed out.
Sitting in the best view position in the center of the hall, gelina banhikova held her sister tightly and patted her chest: "it's frightening, it's frightening, well, there are subtitles, um The police found Micah's body the next day, but Katie is still missing. Well, what do you mean, it can't be true? "
EVA wanted to give her sister a white eye.
However, the final subtitle of the film, even if it is not the finishing touch, has indeed played a role of icing on the cake. It can be regarded as a kind of relaxation after the audience's curiosity is raised, and it is also a kind of complement to the film. After all, the main film ends at the most frightening moment. Although it is frightening for a moment, it inevitably gives people a sense of endless.
Since it's a fake documentary, with the hero dead and the heroine missing, we can't shoot some follow-up films from a third perspective. Therefore, it's just right to add a subtitle.
After the subtitles were added, the cast began to appear on the big screen.
Not long.
So it's over soon.
When the light came on, there was a short silence in the projection hall, and soon there was a warm applause.
Today, the people who are able to come to watch the film, whether they are media reporters, film critics or ordinary audiences, are basically old birds who often stay in the film circle. Even though the film is a little rough at first, we can basically judge the quality of the film.
All in all, no one can deny that this is a very brilliant experimental film.
Once again, Denny Morris personally took several creators to the stage to start the media interaction.
The first reporter who got the chance to ask questions asked a question worth saying: "excuse me, Mr. Lin, how did you come up with the idea of using IREC to make such a movie?"
Although he has already made several films, Lin Yibin is still in a new state of mind. He is nervous in his heart. When he hears this question, he doesn't know how to answer it.
This is an idea provided by a Hollywood tycoon himself, including shooting with IREC.
However, after the film was finished, the other party didn't have any signature in the project and told him not to mention himself. Lin Yibin didn't know how to answer for a while.
In fact, if you want to deal with reporters, you can come at will.
However, when it comes to a certain tycoon, Lin Yibin instinctively dare not be so casual.
It's a good thing there's Denny Morris on the stage.
The president of New World Pictures certainly understands his own boss's thoughts. Simon is now pursuing invisible human status in an all-round way and reducing his public exposure to the greatest extent. Not only this project, but also the amazing theme song Titanic premiered in Venice yesterday, his own boss has given up his signature and won't let anyone mention it.
Seeing Lin Yibin getting stuck, Denny Morris naturally took over the question and skillfully began to say: "since the birth of IREC, many filmmakers have been making similar attempts in the past two years. Danylis entertainment has always encouraged innovation, and the idea of ghost is so excellent that we can't miss it."
