The coffee shop was full of voices, and there were more than 20 people waiting in a bustling line next to the bar. They were talking loudly about how outstanding the "King’s Speech" was, and how wonderful Colin Firth’s performance was...
However, most people choose to take out. The Telluride Film Festival is so lively that no one wants to waste their time in a coffee shop sitting in a daze, wishing to be able to rotate between the cinemas 24 hours a day. Running back and forth. Therefore, there are still empty seats around the seats, which are not full.
"Latte, and a piece of black forest, thank you." The curly fat man returned the menu to the waiter, and then he saw Lan Li's piercing eyes, without special attention or scrutiny, calmly It was like a Wang Qingquan, but the bottomless ink color made people want to explore.
He grew up in Orange Town next to Los Angeles. It is a typical middle-class neighborhood. The residents are all elites such as lawyers, judges, doctors, fund managers, and government officials. Under the influence of his ears, he also sees more. The condescending pride and arrogance of the so-called social elites and elites is really offensive. This is also the reason why he escaped from Orange Town, got rid of all the shackles, and pursued his movie dream wholeheartedly.
The blue gift in front of him made him a little curious. He could feel the alienation hidden under the gentleman's demeanor in Lan Li, but he would not feel offended, not to mention the superior arrogance, this kind of gentle but tough, gentle but sharp temperament, It actually made people feel a little bit good.
So he showed a big smile and proactively stretched out his right hand, "Looking at my memory, I have forgotten to introduce myself until now, Drake-Doremus. Sorry. , Disrupted your movie-watching plan today."
Knowing that Fatty Curly is the director, after sending out an invitation to cooperate with Lan Li, Rooney left. She was going to see "127 Hours". The work her sister participated in has not yet had time to watch. In the end, only two people, Lan Li, came to the coffee house, found a place to sit down and talked.
"Ren Li-Hall." Lan Li took the other person's right hand and said calmly on the surface, "The charm of Telluride is that everything is related to the movie. It is also now." But there were a series of question marks in his mind. : Drake Doremus? Who?
Lan Li dare not say that he knows all the film works well. In the vast film history, there are more than thousands of films, and the unnamed works are like stars. However, after entering the millennium, Lan Li has seen the most and the most complete works. Almost all the works that are not well-known have been seen. However, Drake-Doremus is the director's name, he really has no impression.
what does that mean? Means that Drake is not worthy of friendship? His works are unknown? Maybe it's just an independent work that nobody cares about? Should he turn around and leave now?
No, Lan Li chose to sit still. As he said, this is Telluride. Even if Drake is an unknown person, it is a reward to be able to make a movie lover as a friend. What's more, Lan Li would not be arrogant to think that he knew all the movies after the 21st century, which would be too arrogant.
"I like your answer." Drake said with a smile. Lanly's ease of advance and retreat once again strengthened Drake's inner thoughts. "In fact, I am preparing for my third movie. The preparatory work of the film has been completed, and I can start shooting at any time, but the problem is: I have not found the actor I like."
Drake is telling the truth, he has been going around for the new actor for nearly three months, and still hasn't found a suitable candidate.
For a small-cost independent film, any link is difficult. The actors he likes may be too expensive, or they are not satisfied with the script; the actors he can find may not meet the expectations. The role setting and finding the right actor is like finding a needle in a haystack. No one knows when the treasure will be found.
Therefore, many independent directors have their own fixed casts. They may be familiar friends in life. More likely, after a cooperation, the two parties find that the cooperation is happy, so when the next filming is made, they will find each other again. .
Drake believes that Lan Li can't understand this anymore, because he has just finished shooting "Buried alive", which is also a small-cost independent work.
Sure enough, Lan Li chuckled lightly, "I hope you are not too demanding."
Drake also smiled, "I am indeed too demanding, and I have waited until now." Without changing his voice, he praised Lan Li. At this time two people’s coffee was delivered. Drake pushed the coffee cup forward, leaning forward slightly, "I don’t know if you have seen Richard Linklater's "Before Sunrise" 'And'before sunset'?"
"Of course." Lan Li thought of the joke he had made with Rooney last night and couldn't help but smile. "You plan to make a love movie like this too?"
"Yes, nor is it." Drake sold a key, his eyes flashed with pride, "I want to tell a story where two people, from meeting and acquaintance to falling in love, are like two flames of mad love. They fell in love with each other, desperate, moths fighting to the fire, so that they lost their minds. But at the moment of passionate love, they were forced to live in two places due to force majeure. The hot love poured a bucket of cold water and faced a different place. The test of love, then, where will this relationship end up?"
Drake's narration awakened Lanly's memory. He remembered a movie that told such a story-"Love Is Crazy".
This movie tells the story of two college students Anna and Jacob falling in love, as if they were crazy, they were so obsessed with them that Anna ignored her visa problem-she was an international student from the UK, and her visa expired after graduation , But she did not leave the United States within the deadline. Later, because of a friend's wedding, she had to go back to the UK. When she came back again, she suddenly discovered that she was refused entry by the customs, and this love began to withstand severe tests.
This is one of Lan Li's favorite love movies.
For many people, this film is about the pain and torture of a long-distance relationship, but Lan Li has a different view. He believes that "Love is crazy" really tells the original face of love, the most real face-from the moment of meeting, the hormonal chemical reaction is like a volcanic eruption, shaking the earth and falling in love; the madness and indulge in love. , Destroyed all reason, everything is so crazy, like a tornado meeting; then, they encountered ups and downs, encountered difficulties, encountered struggles, the temperature of love began to gradually drop, so love began to become a part of life , Spent little by little in the daily trivial matters, no longer find the original appearance.
As Drake said just now, "Love is crazy" is actually a bit like a trilogy of "before sunrise", "before sunset", and "before midnight", showing the complete original appearance of love, from fermentation to death From brewing to dissipating, it is true and cruel, beautiful and heartbroken; but "Love Is Crazy" is different from Richard Linklater's trilogy, it explores the essence of love-passion in the end The collision, or the long stay together?
In daily life, it is impossible for love to maintain a boiling point of one hundred degrees all the time. It will always encounter peaks and valleys, but at critical moments, the object of one’s dearly love is not around, happy and sad, happy and sad, Neither joy nor frustration can be shared together, so is love still necessary? Especially when two people who love each other are forced to separate two places, and the shackles of time and space make the two people always miss each other, then will each other gradually fade out of each other's lives? At this moment, how should love go on?
Drake did not give the answer directly in the film, leaving an open ending, where every audience will have their own ideas. This is why Lan Li likes this movie so much.
Optimists will think that they have overcome all difficulties and dangers and finally come together; pessimists will think that the passing of time will change the two people after all, and they will never go back to the past.
Lan Li is the latter.
The movie "Crazy Love" is very niche, because it is too real and cruel, almost unbearable; at the same time, it is too delicate and beautiful. Everyone who really loves can be in the movie. Find your own shadow. Therefore, the film's box office performance is unsatisfactory, and the publicity effect is mediocre. However, the film has been unanimously recognized by the critics, and it has successfully won the Sundance Film Festival’s Jury Award~www.novelhall.com~. Unfortunately, the promotion and distribution in the award season was not strong enough. When the two works of "Artist" and "Midnight Paris" fought fiercely, they finally failed to achieve any gains during the awards season, not even bubbling. This is really too rare-you know, before "Love is crazy", the winner of the Sundance Jury Award has been nominated for Oscar for three consecutive years, and it has been nominated for Best Picture for two consecutive years.
Even so, it still does not affect Lan Li's affection for "Love Is Crazy".
However, Lanly didn’t know that the director of "Crazy Love" was Drake Doremus—or to be more precise, he had checked Drake’s information, but it was a pity that Drake later Several works are hard to be compared with "Love Is Crazy", including the 2015 "Equal Ethnic Group", the quality is not satisfactory, so Lan Li gradually forgot the director, so that when he heard the name just now, there was no response.
The reason why "Love Is Crazy" is so good is that it is adapted from the director's own story-the true story of him and his wife. Every detail and every emotion in the movie is so empathetic. In the movie, Anna and Jacob finally came together, hugging each other with scars; in real life, Drake and his wife divorced in 2008.
