There is no sense of expectation for "Cinema Paradiso" because this award has nothing to do with "Cinema Paradiso".
After all, there is no heroine in this movie.
Although there are female characters, their roles are simply not enough!
On the contrary, "Anne's Lake" started to get nervous.
After all, this movie has two heroines, and although "Cinema Paradiso" made an exception at the Venice Film Festival.
But in fact, it cannot really be considered an exception.
After all, the Special Jury Award is not a permanent award.
However, it is extremely rare for a Best Actor, Best Actor and a Golden Lion Award to appear in the same movie.
It can be said that there are very few in the history of Venice Film Festival!
For this reason, if you win this award, it can be said that you will almost withdraw from the competition for the Golden Lion Award.
In fact, the rule of one carrot and one pitfall has obviously changed at the Venice Film Festival after 2013.
However, since it is an unspoken rule, it will definitely not be announced with great fanfare.
But the award for Best Actor and Actor is indeed completely contradictory to the Golden Lion Award!
So, it’s no wonder that “Anne’s Lake” is worried.
In fact, at this time, a schism was also formed for "Anne's Lake".
For actors, whether a movie wins the Golden Lion Award is actually an honor that belongs to the director, and although it does not matter to the actors, most people will only report on the director winning the award, rather than the actor winning the award.
The Best Actor and Best Actor award is a performance award given to real actors.
Therefore, director Sofia Porter definitely does not hope to win this award, but the two leading ladies definitely hope to win this award.
"The winner of the Best Actress at the 77th Venice International Film Festival is..."
"Beth Catherine"
"And Anna Bea!"
"what?"
The guests at the scene were surprised not by the appearance of a best-known actress at this Venice Film Festival, but by the winner!
Yes, Beth Catherine and Anna Bea are the two heroines of "Anne of the Lake"!
The award of these two egg yolks can be said to complement each other and will not cause any controversy. Instead, it will become a good story. This is somewhat like learning from the Cannes Film Festival.
But everyone is surprised that since "Annie's Lake" won this award, it means that it will miss the final Golden Lion Award.
But "Cinema Paradiso" won two special awards.
Likewise, the probability of winning the Golden Lion is very slim.
In other words, it’s really shocking!
"Damn it, this Venice Film Festival is really awesome!"
"That's awesome, the two favorites are out!"
"You will die from the heat?"
"This method is very fancy!"
"Are there no exceptions?"
"I'm sorry, the last one who won the Best Actress and Golden Lion awards at the same time...emmm doesn't seem to be right?"
At the awards ceremony, Sofia Porter would definitely not be so happy.
But the two actresses who came to the stage to receive the award were shouting.
He delivered his acceptance speech excitedly.
In fact, to a certain extent, the weight of Best Actress and Best Actor is no worse than that of the Golden Lion Award.
Because the Golden Lion Award is awarded to movies, it is more of an honor for directors, while Best Actor and Best Actress are the honors of actors.
After all, actors are public figures in front of the stage!
Carrying the title of Best Actor and Best Actress is the greatest recognition and the highest honor for an actor.
Soon, the best actor award was also announced.
There is no such thing as "Cinema Paradiso".
Li Yi could only comfort Mark Casio. In fact, after receiving the special jury award, everyone knew that there was a high probability that the best actor and "Cinema Paradiso" would not be together.
As for the best director, that was really a surprise!
Maybe it was to appease Li Yi.
Li Yi does have this qualification, but Mark Casio does not have the qualifications to make an exception for the film festival!
However, in this way, the final winner of the Golden Lion Award has become the biggest suspense.
Because theoretically, both "Cinema Paradiso" and "Annie's Lake" are disqualified, so who will win the award?
In fact, at this moment, the crew who received the invitation letter have basically won the award.
It's just that the guests at the scene and the fans watching the live broadcast didn't know it.
Finally, Bertolt Manning stepped onto the podium!
The Golden Lion Award will be presented by Bertolt Manning!
When Bertolt Manning took the stage, domestic movie fans became excited.
"Damn it, Berto Manning came on stage to present the award in person. Doesn't that mean that "Cinema Paradiso" has a chance?"
"Isn't it hard to say? Is it normal for the chairman of the jury to award awards?"
"And "Cinema Paradiso" has already won two awards, so it can't be an exception, right?"
"It's hard to say, the Venice Film Festival also wants to increase its influence. If it makes an exception, it will definitely be very controversial, but the same influence will be overwhelming. The key is, doesn't "Cinema Paradiso" know a Golden Lion Award?"
In fact, the guests present were also confused at this moment.
Because this award really can be given to anyone.
After all, the unspoken rules have been broken a long time ago, so is it possible to continue to break them? There is a high probability that it is really possible!
Not only "Cinema Paradiso" but also "Annie of the Lake" still has hope.
As the saying goes, aren't rules meant to be broken?
Moreover, LGBT is making a big fuss all over the world, especially in Europe, which claims to be the birthplace of modern civilization. And the judges of the Venice Film Festival are naturally left-wing people, so they must encourage homosexuality!
Therefore, "Anne's Lake" is also the reason why it became a big hit at this film festival.
Otherwise, purely in terms of the quality of the movie, "Cinema Paradiso" can be said to beat the other in seconds.
From this point of view, "Annie's Lake" won the Golden Lion, and the film festival made an exception for it. It can also create a lot of gimmicks.
And it can also flaunt political correctness!
Therefore, the suspense about this final Golden Lion Award is really too great.
When Bertolt Manning announced the winners of the Golden Lion Award, the camera panned over the faces of Li Yi, Sophia Porter, and other directors who might win the award.
Li Yi is still relatively calm.
Comparatively speaking, for the Best Director Award, he is actually satisfied that the world cannot completely revolve around anyone.
"Cinema Paradiso" won two awards, what more bikes do you need?
Other directors were not so calm.
After all, this is the Golden Lion Award!
Even though the Venice Film Festival is among the three major film festivals in Europe, many people say it has declined due to various reasons.
But no one still underestimates the Venice Film Festival!
No matter how bad it is, it is also one of the highest artistic film awards in the world!
Even someone like Li Yi who is relatively indifferent to awards can't help but have some expectations at this moment!
