Japanese big things

Although the New Year has only passed not long ago, the festive atmosphere has dissipated very quickly. The short-term joyful mood did not stay in my heart for too long, and all kinds of sorrows in life took over my heart in an instant, making every passerby pass by.

The color is in a hurry.

The bustling crowds are all over the streets and alleys of the city, and the noisy noises fill every corner, like all-pervasive clouds and mist. In addition to highlighting the prosperity of the city, it also inevitably arouses a lot of boredom among people.

A speeding car came from a distance. As the speed of the car continued to decrease, when the wheels stopped turning, the car stopped steadily at the entrance of the Film Palace.

"Good morning, Mr. Cosley."

As the car door opened, Dieter Kosley stepped out of the car. Before he could stand still, a voice of greeting came over and rang in his ears.

"Good morning."

Dieter Kosli smiled kindly and nodded at the other party, which was regarded as a response to the other party's greeting.

"Mr. Cosley, you are finally here."

The other party was a staff member of the Berlin Film Festival and a subordinate of Dieter Kosli. When he saw Dieter Kosli's appearance, he felt as if he had found a savior in a crisis, and his tone of voice was slightly excited: "

The judges are almost quarreling, just like the vendors in the vegetable market, no one is willing to give in."

"What? Is it that exaggerated?"

Suddenly hearing this, Dieter Cosley subconsciously thought that the other party was exaggerating the facts. After all, the invited judges were all well-known people with identity and status. No matter how fierce the argument was, there would still be a dispute.

Should you be cautious about meeting?

"Mr. Cosley, if you don't believe it, why don't you go and have a look inside the conference room yourself."

Seeing that Dieter Kosli's eyes were full of suspicion, the other party didn't bother to defend himself, and insisted on letting Dieter Kosli witness the facts himself.

Taking steps to catch up with the other party, Dieter Kosli walked into the Film Palace. Although he was very suspicious of the other party's words, the other party's silent rebuttal made Dieter Kosli couldn't help but think more.

As he walked, Dieter Kosli couldn't help but recall the names of the judges. Each character was like a ghost, floating back and forth in his mind, and flashing by like a revolving lantern.

Those judges are indeed well-known people with identity and status, but apart from the dazzling halo that surrounds them, in fact, they also have common joys, sorrows and joys like many ordinary people.

Once they get into some kind of controversy and their emotions get a little higher and no one is willing to give in, then it seems that they have just the right reason to quarrel.

Thinking about it this way, Dieter Cosley was able to understand the other party's thoughts again. His previous suspicion of the other party's thoughts was mainly due to his trust in the judges. To put it bluntly, he was blinded by those dazzling auras.
"I think the shortlist of competition units should include "Nard and Westminster: A Separation", "Ultimatum" and "Reward", "Narcolepsy"."

"Yes, the list should also include "Strange World", "Innocent Saturday", and "Our Despair"."

""Who Else But Us" and "The Future" should also be shortlisted."

"If "Screaming to the Sky" and "Bloody Forgiveness" are not shortlisted for the competition, I will never agree."

""Nader and Simin: A Farewell" and "A Long Day" are the best. You can't be biased or selfish."

""One Long Day" is definitely the best film at this Berlin Film Festival."

As soon as I walked to the door of the conference room, there was still a short distance away, and the sounds of quarrels in the conference room came out one after another. The words were relatively intense, and the tone was full of gunpowder, giving people the feeling that they were about to fight.<

/p>

Dieter Cosley frowned subconsciously. Although he had not yet entered the conference room, the arguments coming from inside were obviously the judges fighting each other for the shortlist of the competition unit.

After being screened by the film selection experts of the Berlin Film Festival, the films that can be retained have all been unanimously recognized, and their film quality is relatively guaranteed. Maybe not every aspect is excellent, but there are definitely some that stand out.

Advantages.

He reached out and pushed open the door of the conference room. With a dull creaking sound, the door of the conference room was successfully opened. In an instant, the sound of fierce quarrels in the conference room stopped suddenly, and everyone was like

It was like my throat was being strangled, and I couldn't make a sound.

All eyes were turned to the door of the conference room, their stunned gazes full of curiosity, and everyone was muttering in their hearts: Who is coming now?

Under the attention of everyone, Dieter Kosli stepped into the conference room. Like a grand dance, as the protagonist who made a grand appearance at the end, he attracted everyone's attention and instantly became a

caught the spotlight.

"Gentlemen and ladies, what issue requires everyone to argue so fiercely?"

Stopping, the corners of Dieter Kosli's mouth slightly raised, drawing a clear arc. He smiled gently at everyone present in the conference room, and said: "Everyone, sit down calmly, let's take our time.

Let’s discuss it together.”

Seeing that the person speaking was Dieter Kosli, everyone present nodded in unison, agreeing with his proposal. If it had been anyone else, they might not have bought it, but after all, Dieter Kosli was the Berlin Film Festival's selection.

Director, you must give face.

The judges who were originally standing returned to their seats one after another, and calmly picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip, as if the previous fierce argument did not exist and was just everyone's illusion.

"That's right."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

Nodding with satisfaction, Dieter Kosli moved to sit on an empty chair nearby. Although he is the film selection director of the Berlin Film Festival, he must also show corresponding respect to these invited judges.

.

To put it bluntly, these invited judges are to strengthen the momentum of the Berlin Film Festival. They all use each other's strength to set off each other. Each of the judges is an industry veteran who cannot be underestimated. To offend them rashly is to criticize the Berlin Film Festival.

The knot is also a big harm.

For example, the president of the jury is Isabella Rossellini, an Italian and American actress, writer and model. Her mother is the Hollywood superstar Ingrid Bergman, and her father

It's Italian Roberto Rossellini. Well, he is definitely a super veteran in the industry.

Another example is the other members of the jury: Aamir Khan is a representative of the Indian film industry, Nina Hoss is a senior actress from Germany, and Jane Camping is also a representative of the New Zealand film industry. Others such as Jafar Pa

Nasi, Guy Martin, and Sandy Powell are also well-known industry figures.

"Mr. Cosley, I think the shortlist for the competition section needs to be carefully considered."

In the quiet atmosphere, a voice suddenly sounded, instantly attracting everyone's attention. Dieter Cosley also looked over subconsciously. The person who spoke was Aamir Khan, who was not tall but had an air of dignity.

A feeling of coercion.

“I don’t know if you have noticed, but there are very few contestants from Asia among the shortlisted candidates for this film festival.”

After glancing around at the crowd and seeing everyone's thinking expressions, Aamir Khan continued: "Should everyone pay corresponding attention to it?"

Aamir Khan sat down directly after speaking, but everyone present was still immersed in his words. As he said, among the films selected by this Berlin Film Festival, there were unusually few contestants from Asia.

.

In addition to Korean director Lee Yoon-ki's "Love, Not Love", there are only "A Long Day" by Japanese director Masahiro Nakamura and "Departure" by Iranian director Asghar Farhadi. In total, the shortlist of candidates for the competition section is

Only these three films are from Asia.

Especially for the films from the Chinese-speaking region, not a single one was shortlisted this time, which can be said to be the result of a total annihilation. For the Berlin Film Festival, the Chinese-speaking region has always been a relatively important area, so this situation is not suitable.

What I want to see.

"This is indeed an issue worthy of attention. We should give Asian films more opportunities."

The person who took over the topic and spoke was Jafar Panahi. He is Iranian. Geographically speaking, Iran also belongs to the Asian region. Therefore, he is naturally more concerned about this issue.

What's more, the film "Nader and Simin: A Separation" directed by his compatriot Asghar Farhadi has also been shortlisted for the competition this time. It is good to be shortlisted, but if you want to stand out, you first need to interview

That’s right, there are many opponents from Europe and the United States.

If possible, Jafar Panahi wants these judges to give more attention to Asian films. Only in this way can "Nader and Simin: A Separation" directed by his compatriot Asghar Farhadi have

Opportunity.

After India's Aamir Khan and Iran's Jaffa Panahi spoke one after another, no one else answered for a while. The entire conference room couldn't help but fell into a brief silence, and the atmosphere couldn't help but become a little solemn for a while.
"You are right, films from the Eastern world should be taken seriously."

In the end, it was Isabella Rossellini who served as the chairman of the jury who made the final decision. Although the opinions of other judges need to be respected, as the chairman of the jury, Isabella Rossellini has the

The final decision is made.
