Great Artist

At the premiere, the cheering crowd, the bombarded media, and the lively scenes are all making good luck for the movie and promoting it. But this all requires money. Richard Kelly has no money. The entire production cost of "Death Illusion" is equivalent to the premiere of "Pearl Harbor". So, the premiere of "Illusion of Death" was moved to the Sundance Film Festival, bringing all the indie fans together to kick off the film.

The Salt Lake City area has been snowing since last night, and this morning, it has turned into a heavy snowflake. It was not until noon that the snowflakes were smaller, but the snow was already two inches thick, and it was clear when you stepped on the snow. Heard a creaking sound.

There was no sedan and no red carpet. Just like the previous two days, Gu Luobei and Teddy Bell set off for Park City, and then walked towards the studio where "Death Illusion" premiered. The snowflakes on Park City's main street have been shoveled once, but the constant stream of snowflakes still makes the streets slippery. The heavy snow froze the fiery hearts of the fans, and the place where the sight touched was still filled with people, but no one would pay attention to Gu Luobei, as if he was just an ordinary person. This made Gu Luobei have no sense of reality, and he didn't feel that the movie he starred in was about to be released today.

At the entrance of the theater, Teddy Bell separated from Gu Luobei. He went to line up to enter the theater, while Gu Luobei had to perform the obligation of the premiere: to be interviewed by the media. After all, both Teddy Bell and Gu Luobei still have no self-consciousness. One has no manager's self-consciousness, and the other has no artist's self-consciousness. If it is normal, the manager should follow the artist and take care of everything. Then follow the artist into the backstage and handle affairs. But the two of them seemed to be just coming to the film festival. Everything was the same as yesterday and the day before yesterday. Teddy Bell went to line up to get in.

After watching Teddy Bell leave, Gu Luobei saw the long queue at the entrance of the cinema, and he couldn't help feeling much better. At least there were still a lot of viewers who were going to watch "Death Illusion" today. Pulling the neckline to block the cold wind, Gu Luobei walked towards the side of the theater.

Richard Kelly, Drew Barrymore, Gina Malone, Maggie Gyllenhaal and others have arrived. Gu Luobei couldn't help but quicken his pace, "It seems that I'm the only one who is late."

"It's okay, we just arrived." Richard Kelly turned back and smiled at Gu Luobei, then turned back and said, "I hope the work can satisfy everyone." I don't know if the "everyone" refers to the crew staff, or all the audience.

Drew Barrymore's eyes have been on Gu Luobei. He originally thought that the image of this man in his mind had faded after not seeing him for a few months, but after meeting here, he found that the charm of this man is like a mellow man. The wine is generally unforgettable for a long time.

"Then I'll go out first, Bell, you can go out after a while." Drew Barrymore's eyebrows moved slightly, she believed that the man in front of her must have received the message she sent. After she finished speaking, she walked forward and passed Gu Luobei. Although the two had no contact at all, the faint licorice aroma on Gu Luobei's body made Drew-Barrymore smile even deeper. some.

In principle, the protagonist or director usually goes out first, but the "Death Illusion" crew is a newcomer. Since there is Drew Barrymore, the appealing star, she goes out first to bring some atmosphere to the scene. Attention is also a good choice. The fact is also true. Most of the reporters who came to the scene today are for Drew Barrymore. The Charlie's Angel who swept the golden autumn schedule last year is now the focus of attention.

Hearing the cheers outside, Gu Luobei only had a sense of reality at this time. Is this about to be officially exposed to the spotlight? Whether it was Broadway or Yingyan Music Festival before, Gu Luobei had never had direct contact with reporters. Although he has been in this business on the Broadway stage for a long time, today can be regarded as the day when Gu Luobei officially entered the entertainment industry. Is it his debut? It shouldn't be counted, it's just an appearance.

Gu Luobei stood in the same place, and his thoughts were a little confused for a while. The memories of the previous life were mixed with the memories of this life. One was the days when he was studying at Harvard University, the other was the days when he lived with her; the other was Catherine. , Teddy's caring and kind face, sometimes it's the indifferent expression of his parents in his previous life; sometimes it's the splendor of Broadway, and sometimes it's the **** sky in a car accident... Suddenly, not too far away, the cheers broke through the cold wind. The obstacles broke into Gu Luobei's ears, and a burst of cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to the bottom of his heart, causing Gu Luobei to fight a cold war.

Gu Luobei stomped on the stiff feet and stepped on the cold and hard ground, only then did he have a solid feeling: this is not a dream, this is reality. He was born again, and he has spent eighteen years in this world. In this life, he has been unrestrained and free to do whatever he wants, and has come all the way to the present, and today, he will stand in front of the media flash and create a world that only belongs to him! This made Gu Luobei suddenly enlightened.

Perhaps, in the past 18 years, he has not really integrated into this world. However, starting today, everything will be different.

If Teddy Bell stood here, he would have found that there was a deep and deep haze in Gu Luobei's eyes, so deep that people could hardly find the existence of this haze. The two brothers grew up together, Teddy -Bell just found some clues. But now, that unfathomable haze has dissipated a little bit, even if it's just a little bit, it makes Gu Luobei's melancholy more relaxed.

At this time, Richard Kelly saw Gu Luobei showing a smile. This smile is still the same as before. It's ruffian, with some unruly, seductive and sexy, but it's more incomprehensible. things that make the smile brighter. Richard Kelly pondered for a while, but couldn't find a reasonable explanation. He just felt that he thought too much and blamed everything on Gu Luobei's invisible and intangible aura.

"Bell, it's your turn." Richard Kelly's voice called Gu Luobei out of his mind.

Gu Luobei breathed a long sigh of relief and jumped in place, letting the frozen feet loosen. Subconsciously, his left hand touched the ring finger of his right hand, and rubbed the base of the finger, It's like there's something there that can be rotated. But soon, Gu Luobei let go of his hand again, smiled at Richard Kelly and others, turned around and walked out.

This is a very ordinary movie theater, located in the middle of the main street of Park City. During the Sundance Film Festival, all participating films will have their premieres at this movie theater. But the so-called premiere is actually not grand. Just in the aisle at the entrance of the cinema, there was a red carpet more than 20 meters long. To the right of the red carpet was a huge background board with the sign of "2001 Sundance Film Festival" on it. About five meters to the left of the red carpet, about twenty reporters gathered, holding professional cameras in their hands, ready to take photos that could be published.

There are not many fans around the red carpet. Movies that attract attention at the film festival can gather hundreds of fans, but the appeal of movies that do not attract much attention will be lower. At this time, there were less than 100 spectators gathered around the red carpet. Most of them were just here to watch the fun. The main reason is that "Death Illusion" has not received much attention, and fans who have paid attention have already queued up to watch the movie, so there are only two or three kittens in the place where the premiere goes through the motions.

But fortunately, Drew-Barrymore still has some appeal, and her appearance at least made the atmosphere lively a lot. Even the spectators who lined up to enter the venue from a distance also cheered in cooperation, and the momentum was not too embarrassing.

William Wood is 28 years old this year and has worked for "Entertainment Weekly" for five years, but is still a junior reporter. Although the qualifications are enough, there is always a lack of an opportunity for him to develop upwards, so he has been struggling at the forefront. The interview task at the Sundance Film Festival~www.readwn.com~ is a chore: there are no big names, they are all independent filmmakers; there is no breaking news, they are all real movies. However, yesterday's outstanding performances by "The Believer" and Ryan Gosling still made William Wood quite happy, and it can be regarded as an unexpected gain from coming to Salt Lake City this time.

William Wood, who is about to premiere today's "Death Illusion," has heard a bit of it before, especially since Drew Barrymore's investment has gained a lot of attention. The same is true. Today, when Drew Barrymore played, he did get a lot of cheers from the scene.

After Drew Barrymore, it should be the time when the protagonist Evan Bell or the director Richard Kelly appeared. Many of the 20 reporters on the scene deserted. Unlike the appearance of big-name stars, everyone paid great attention. , I just hope to take more photos of better quality. Now all the newcomers who appear on the show are unknown newcomers. They will also stand in front of the background board for everyone to take pictures, so everyone is not so concerned, and many people even start chatting.

William Wood was also deserting, but he was wiping the lens. Today, the snowflakes kept falling, the lens became blurred, and water stains were left. The quality of the photos taken is definitely not much better. Although he was wiping the lens in his hand, William Wood's eyes did not leave the red carpet in front of him, looking forward to the appearance of Evan Bell.

Although Evan Bell is just a newcomer with no reputation, from the poster of "Death Illusion", even in Hollywood where handsome men and beauties gather, Evan Bell still has impressive capital. It's just that I don't know how real people are.

At this moment, the protagonist appeared!

The first update of the new year, hehe, the Seven Cats are greeting everyone! Then by the way, beg for collections and recommendations, ha.
