I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Chapter 373: 372. Art? Is he worthy?

  Chapter 373 372. Art? Is he worthy?

  At the same time, I saw this trailer and Ms. Merritt Leslie in France.

She is a freelance writer and film critic. She was a drama critic in her early years, and later involved in films, TV dramas, stage plays, operas and other fields. As a French tradition, women are better than men. She is also a judge of the Palme d’Or one.

  Ms. Merritt is known for her harsh comments and vicious eyes. She once publicly dissed an actress who tried to switch from a movie to a Broadway stage performance, which led to her being attacked by the media and audiences, and she has since retired from the entertainment industry.

  Because of this, some people call her the "Queen of Cannes", meaning that as long as she speaks up, then basically a film will win a prize at the Palme d’Or.

  Ms. Merritt, as a film critic engaged in drama, is naturally at the upper reaches of the chain of contempt.

In this circle, filmmakers look down on those who make TV shows, and drama actors look down on those who make movies. It's normal, but most people stay in the line. Even if they really have any opinions in their minds, they won’t say it, but Ms. Merritt doesn’t. Similarly, what she hates most is that people who originally made popcorn movies and other cheap entertainment projects come to get involved in her favorite drama or art film field.

  Anyone who encounters a director who has a "conviction", her scores are very low without exception.

  Not only low scores, she also writes articles to spray, spray in front of the director and actors.

  So, when she heard that Lu Zie was about to participate in the Palme d’Or judging, her first reaction was that another arrogant fellow came.

  “These people don’t understand art at all. I’ve said it a long time ago. They think that their cliché films can fool the public to make money. They try to use one or two awards to pay themselves gold, ha ha, ridiculous.”

  Ms. Merritt sniffed.

In her opinion, many commercial film directors are not clear, thinking that if they can make a hit movie, they can make an artistic movie. In fact, Ms. Merritt believes that these people don’t understand art at all and what they do. , Is tarnishing art.

  And Lu Zie is one of them.

  This new and cutting-edge young director from the East achieved a good score at the fifth box office in the global film history by relying on a film, and also received good reviews from the public.

  Ms. Merritt never watched that movie. She never took the initiative to watch commercial movies. The better they sell, the higher the box office, the more she hates it.

  She believes that art should be noble, has nothing to do with money, and is pure.

Therefore, when the director of an award-winning art film passed away due to poverty and illness in the past, Ms. Merritt also published an article, highly praising the director, thinking that he did not associate with those businessmen and defended it with her life. Art.

  Some people think that Ms. Merritt’s idea is extreme and pathological, but this is exactly her personality.

After   Lu Zin’s trailer was released, Ms. Merritt had no plans to watch it, but everyone around her was actually boasting the trailer.

  For example, Ms. Merritt’s colleague and Michael Vivo, also a film festival reviewer, were full of praise for the artistic conception of this trailer.

   "Let me tell you, this movie alone can make everyone fall in love with this trailer. I haven't seen a work that can move my heartstrings with the screen alone for a long time!"

  Hearing these words, Ms. Merritt felt even more that Lu Yi could not be so arrogant.

  "You expected such a high value with a trailer alone. Has the recent film industry turned into such a bad state?"

   She muttered and clicked on the trailer.

  For an instant, Ms. Merritt felt a warm wind.

  She had been to an island country and saw the cherry blossoms falling all over the street, but at this moment, she saw a more splendid cherry blossom rain.

  Among them, a young girl is walking among the falling petals.

  Ms. Merritt felt a youthful vigor, a gentle and kind temperament when she saw her, just like anyone can be kind to her and be able to be friends with her.

  Along with the passage of time, although Merritt had never seen this girl before, she felt that if she could see her in reality, then they would definitely be able to talk about everything.

Unknowingly, this trailer has ended. Although it only presents the life of a young girl, it has given Ms. Merritt infinite expectations. She wants to see the follow-up experience of this young girl and wants to know more about her. I want to become a character in the movie and get in touch with her.

  Looking at the computer screen in a daze, Ms. Merritt forgot for a while that she was watching this film with a critical thought.

  ". This must be because the actress's acting skills are so good."

  Ms. Merritt said to herself.

  "This kind of short film, you can choose the scenery and find an actor with good acting skills. It's just good-looking."

  She thought about it for a while, and even more felt that Lu Zing’s operation of shooting good scenery and using beautiful actors to add stunts to her works is tainting art!

  Thinking of this, Ms. Merritt couldn't restrain her critical power a little.

  She immediately opened the document and began to write about the trailer and her thoughts on Lu Zie.

". Although Director Lu Kie is well-known in business, he doesn’t know much about art. He thinks that using beautiful actors, beautiful scenery and slow shots is art, but I want to say that he is tarnishing art, and he is trying to use that. A set of commercial methods to deceive the audience, but there are still people whose eyes are discerning. Regarding "No War in Spring", I think this is a vulgar romance, not to mention the Palme d’Or, it is not even nominated. I might get it!"

  ". He thought that the tactics he used in commercial films to please audiences with no aesthetics could also be used to deceive experienced judges. Unfortunately, he failed."

   "Art? Does he deserve it?"

  This is a review article updated on a personal website. After a few hours, the number of clicks exceeded 10,000.

  In China, this article was quickly reposted in a relatively large forum, and machine translation was also attached.

Many people who are not optimistic about Lu Nie treat it as the bible and use it to criticize Lu Nie's new movie. After all, some people only repeat what others say and have no subjective opinions of their own. Even more people, foreigners say nothing. Yes, if a foreigner criticizes domestic things, it must be that the country has not done a good job. Since nowadays foreign bigwigs say that Lu Zie can't do it, then Lu Zie definitely can't do it!

  Under such circumstances, the complete film master of Lu Zan’s "No War in Spring" was sent to distant Europe, in the hands of the Palme d’Or jury.

  Within a week, the jury will review the film one after another and make an evaluation.
