Although Tom Cruise is still a few years from his peak, he is now a front-line actor in Hollywood. Throughout his achievements, although it has nothing to do with his own hard work, it is still relatively smooth for most people. In addition, the image of the youth idol has earned him a lot of popularity. It makes sense.

However, as a celebrity who is quite influential in the entertainment industry, he has not mastered this skill, which is a must-have quality for every star. There is no exception, otherwise the entertainment industry will be over. Already.

In fact, Cruise did a good job, maintaining a peaceful and modest appearance from beginning to end. However, although he has starred in a number of drama films and honed his acting skills in order to change his fixed image since the late 1980s, and was nominated for an Oscar for best actor in 9o, he did not bring his acting skills to life well. Come.

Otherwise, how could that pride be seen by Adrian? Take another look at the Willis couple who had dealt with Cruise. After he left, he shrugged and exchanged a disdainful look, and you can understand why so many people attacked when he was out of power.

Well, this is just one of the reasons, so you don't need to analyze it carefully. Prior to Cruise's departure, Adrian made an invitation as usual, and he had already obtained the right to adapt Anne Rice's novel, and was considering playing the role of "original crew". Of course, he has his own plan, a part-time producer may be able to, but if you want to, you have to find Neil Jordan.

Cruz still carried that disdain at first, and it was only perfunctory in the face of the invitation. Although Adrian was also vague, he just expressed the hope that he would have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, but he didn't take it seriously. Maybe it's obvious. But after Nicole Kidman whispered a few words, he became passionate again.

"If you need, you can call me or my agent at any time." Cruz said with a smile, sincere appearance swept away that pride before, after all, he was not a fool.

It can also be seen here that Nicole Kidman is better than him in this regard. Speaking of which, Nicole seems to be only 25 years old now, when it was young and beautiful. Although not much talked at the reception, those gray-blue eyes were quite charming.

Until returning to the hotel, Adrian was thinking about something.

Another day later, the most important moment of the Cannes Film Festival-the awards ceremony-came, stars, directors, producers and entertainment reporters from all over the world gathered outside the Lumiere Theatre and began The last carnival.

"Do you think I'll get the Golden Palm tonight, Monica?" Adrian asked with a smile, holding Monica's arm, walking all the way across the red carpet and entering the theater, sitting down in his place. .

"No." Monica replied a little indifferently. She was wearing a purple low-cut evening dress, showing a deep seductive gully, which was obviously extraordinarily sexy, but she was slightly biased when she sat down.

"Okay, okay, if it makes you feel more comfortable, then it doesn't matter if you can't get it." Adrian Haha laughed and stretched her arms around her waist from behind the seat, unlike the beginning of the film festival You need to cover your eyes for a few days.

Monica twisted her body symbolically and leaned against Adrian with a humming sound. Although the pain has been relieved a lot, after all, she didn't dare to sit for a long time and could only lie on her side. She wanted to completely eliminate the sequelae. It takes time.

Although the Cannes Film Festival is supported by the French government, there are still many shortcomings compared to the Oscars. The performance of the host can only be regarded as satisfactory. The judges are sitting on top of each other, and basically there are no performances such as singing and dancing. The whole ceremony was solemn and lively-the French pretense was obvious.

Because of this, even if there are more than a dozen awards to be awarded, and some awards have two places-such as golden cameras or jury awards. But it didn't take long to get to the most important part.

Although Adrian can't remember the entire list of winners-after all, he is not omnipotent and omnipotent. Only those who have seen it in the past can remember it, and the shallower the impression, the more difficult it is to find. After all, the Cannes Film Festival is not as well-known as Oscar. But he is still very clear about those important awards, but they are only one by one. The current 45th Cannes Film Festival has made a lot of changes, such as the best director award to Denmark ’s Bill Auguste. Knowing that in the original trajectory, his "Betrayal of Goodwill" got the golden palm

When he heard the name, Adrian held Monica's hand tightly. Basically, it's impossible for Bill August to get the best director, because Cannes is much better than Oscar on the principle of dividing the cake. Rarely does a movie win several awards. As for whether this principle is good or bad, it is difficult to assess.

"You'll get it, Ed." Monica said softly at the moment. The previous "No" was just a joke.

Adrian didn't answer, just smiled and patted her hand. Next, there are two special jury prizes. Without the name of "Vulgar Novel", the possibility of getting a golden palm will be greatly increased. But this is not easy. If you compare it with the Oscar, the Golden Palm Awards are a combination of the best film and the best director. Generally speaking, if you can get a special jury award at the previous Cannes Film Festival, Participation will greatly increase the probability of obtaining golden palm. Of course, there are also many films that directly take Golden Palm, but the proportion is relatively small.

But as a person with a strong desire for control, Adrian did not like this situation that he could not grasp. It's just that it's interesting to try this occasionally. Anyway, Golden Palm is not a thing that must be obtained in the plan, so it can make him feel a bit of uncertainty.

"The special awards are: Italian film:" Thief "and Spanish film:" Magic Light "" With the announcement of the host, there was a warm applause. Adrian also took a long breath and waited for the last moment.

Probably the two award-winning directors also realized this, and their speeches were very short. After they went on, the host made a few more jokes, and then announced the awarding guests. Soon, in the sound of music, a tall and slender figure emerged from behind the rows of frame-like decorations. The long, young and beautiful face of the scroll is the best. Gray-blue eyes, not Nicole Kidman?

She was still dressed at the reception that day, with a thin-shouldered evening dress and black transparent stockings and flat shoes, but with a pair of black long gloves, which made her temperament even better.

As Nicole appeared on the stage, the host introduced it to everyone, but after a few words, he pulled the topic back to the Golden Palm Awards, and Nicole stood with a smile and said nothing. Compared with the Oscars, the guests at the Cannes Film Festival are vases. The only thing for men and women to come to the stage is to give the list to the host, and then watch the host name out, and wait for the winner to come on stage. He left after finishing his speech.

The Frenchman ... Adrian shook his head in his heart, and then focused on the host. This middle-aged man in a suit with his head about 40 years old had opened the long scroll that Nicole had handed over.

"Well, now I announce it," he said dryly, "at this film festival, the Golden Palm Award was won, American film:" Vulgar Fiction "

Adrian, who involuntarily clenched his fists, waved his hands with a small force. The expression of excitement and excitement rarely appeared on his face, and he had to admit that it was really exciting to do so once in a while.

The applause followed, and the surrounding area was particularly warm. The seats in the theater were divided by area, and the Americans sitting nearby were clapping their hands vigorously at the moment, jealous or not.

After shaking hands with Travolta, Jackson, Willis, Dennis and others, Adrian, who had adjusted his state, came onto the stage with applause and smiling.

"Thank you, Lermit, thank you, Nicole." He shook hands with the host and Nicole, respectively, and then took the trophy from the host, Lermitt, and a golden palm coconut stuck on the box. Square chamfer on transparent crystal.

"Thanks to the judges for putting this honor into my hands. This is really exciting and exciting. When I was making this movie, I never thought I would take up the Golden Palm trophy one day. Thanks for participating. Of the cast, thank you to all the cast members, to everyone who supported me, thank you, thank you very much, "Adrian said, holding up the trophy in his hand and shaking it.

Because this is France and the host is French from start to finish, Adrian's speech is also French. His French is not particularly good, and there is no problem in listening and speaking, but too fast will cause the words to be misleading, so Adrian spoke as slowly as possible when speaking, and the content was shorter and more popular. .

In this way, his French was both clear and frustrating. After the speech, he welcomed the warm applause of the French. Even the host and the French judges who were not far away clapped their hands, plus the United States People are also supporting the director of their country ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ The enthusiasm in the theater is much higher than just now.

Adrian owed a little, and was about to go down with the trophy, and Nicole was just going to follow it. The two almost collided, and suddenly made a few laughs.

"Sorry," Nicole said a little awkwardly.

"It doesn't matter." Adrian gestured very gentlely.

Perhaps because of the nervousness of this matter, Nicole suddenly fell to the ground when he stepped down the stairs, but Adrian who was behind him held her arm in time.

"Don't worry, it's okay." He whispered, and let go of Nicole's hand when he stood still, and the gentleman-like move greeted a lot of applause.

"Thank you." Nicole smiled at him, then walked to his seat without looking back.

Adrian didn't say anything, and he went straight back to his seat.
