On the eve of the Golden Horse Awards, Zhang Yicheng and Yang Guang and Yan Yuanyuan, who had taken a break from the crew, flew to the Golden Horse Awards. Zhang Yicheng valued this award very much, even more than the Academy Awards.
Speaking of which, Zhang Yicheng doesn't think it's too valuable, but the Academy Awards itself is an award for Hong Kong people to play house games behind closed doors. It doesn't really matter whether they get it or not.
But the Golden Horse Award is different. Before there were really any powerful film awards in the mainland, the Golden Horse Award was one of the most important awards that Zhang Yicheng would compete for in the future. Of course, if one day he could compete for an Oscar or something like that,
That would be even better
This time, Tianlan Entertainment can be considered a big success. After the Golden Bell Awards, it is the Golden Horse Awards’ turn again. Countless media are exclaiming, Zhang Yicheng is simply amazing. He is so powerful. The Golden Bell Awards,
Let him run wild at the Golden Horse Awards
Zhang Yicheng is relatively confident about this competition. The Golden Horse Awards favor literary and artistic films, and focus on encouraging film creations with strong artistic characteristics. This has led some film workers to criticize the Golden Horse Awards for being artistic and abstract, and not encouraging inspiring films.
The development of commercial films in Taiwan does not help
Before the Golden Horse Awards ceremony, the famous director Tsai Ming-liang publicly announced that he would boycott participation from now on, expressing his dissatisfaction with the Golden Horse Awards executive committee and judges.
Although "Thirty-day Love" is definitely a commercial film, and it is an unprecedentedly successful commercial film, in essence, as originally promoted, it is a healing film, which can also be said to be related to literature and art.
As mentioned above, if you have to classify it as a literary film, it is not impossible. The only problem is that the box office of this literary film is so successful that many successful people are reluctant to classify it as a literary film.
possible
But I didn't expect that he was even shortlisted, so Zhang Yicheng is still a little confident. The Golden Horse Awards have changed somewhat, at least it's not the same as before.
The Golden Horse Awards and the Academy Awards are completely two extremes. The Academy Awards, which were born out of a commercial atmosphere, are the home base of commercial films, while the Golden Horse Awards are completely different. The Golden Horse Awards are full of literary and artistic styles.
I don’t know if it’s a common problem among those who engage in literature and art. Basically, those who engage in literature and art will have the feeling that you don’t understand us. We are engaged in the most noble art in the world. That kind of arrogant look leaves others speechless.
People who are engaged in literature and art will feel that if their works are popular, it is a reflection of their own strength. If they are not popular, it is because you guys are ignorant!
This has always been the case for those who make literary and artistic films. This is different from those who make commercial films, because the standard for commercial films is very simple. If the box office is enough, then it will be successful. But literary and artistic films are different, because everyone has a different understanding of art.
Some people think this is art, and some people think this is nonsense.
So although the Golden Horse Award is the grand prize in the film industry, it still has this artistic youth style. However, in recent years, it has gradually begun to change, focusing more on commercial films.
Because the Academy Awards allowed the Golden Horse Awards to see an opportunity. The Academy Awards have begun to weaken with the weakening of Hong Kong films in recent years. This allowed him to see the opportunity for the Golden Horse Awards to surpass the Academy Awards. Although compared to Hong Kong
Movies, Taiwanese movies have never risen at all, but compared to the closure of the Hong Kong Film Awards, they are undoubtedly much more generous. They have simply given up on the plan to base themselves on Taiwanese local movies. That is unreliable. This
The collective recovery of Hong Kong movies still feels unreliable
From the perspective of movies that attract all over the world, the overall quality of the Golden Horse Awards is higher than that of the Academy Awards, and this trend will gradually increase.
And in this context, it is not too strange that the highly successful and somewhat literary "Love Is Not Blind" was shortlisted.
The awards nominated for "Thirty Days of Love" this time include Best Original Screenplay Award, Audience Choice Award for Best Picture, Best Feature Film Award, Best Director Award, Best Actor Award, Best Actress Award, and Best Newcomer Award.
Eight awards including actor, best costume design, best original film music, etc., became the big winner in terms of nominations
Judging from the competition and box office win-win of the same period at this time last year, "The War" and "Assembly Number" both use war as a means of telling stories and portraying the background of human nature. The pattern of abnormal Chinese blockbusters has emerged, and Chen Kexin's directorial ability
, the overall grasp of "Tou Ming Zhuan", Liu Heng's script, and Zhang Hanyu's acting skills are all undoubtedly winner-takes-all. Indeed, such a result is just a pre-announced decision, and there are not many surprises when looking back at "Tou Mingzhuan" again.
The three films "Famous", "Assembly" and "Cape No. 7" are all clearly about human nature, including complex choices in troubled times, tracing the true historical truth in peaceful times, and ordinary people's pursuits in secular life. In short
, only by correcting names can harmony be possible
Generally speaking, those with a bit of literary and artistic flair are more favored by the Golden Horse Awards. This can be seen from several films shortlisted this year, including "The No. 1", "Assembly", "Cape 7"
"No." are all like this
And "Cape No. 7" has caused a "Cape" whirlwind across Taiwan, which makes people see an unprecedented hope for Taiwanese movies.
So Zhang Yicheng feels that although the Golden Horse Awards may be biased towards "Cape No. 7", there will still be room for competition by then. Although the Golden Horse Awards are said to be open, that is when Taiwanese films are really not good enough to vomit blood.
As long as Taiwanese films are more powerful, the Golden Horse Awards should not be like this. On the contrary, compared to the Taiwan Golden Horse Awards, the many awards in the mainland are very generous. They allow films from Hong Kong and Taiwan to come. In a general sense, they are considered
It is a Chinese film, so it is allowed to participate
This is the difference between different places. In the Mainland, most people agree that Hong Kong and Taiwan are included in the big concept of China. In Hong Kong, with the growth of the younger generation, it has been 11 years since the return, and it has gradually returned to China.
There is the concept of China, but in Taiwan, there is basically no such concept. It is like how a mainlander can accept that the mainland is a part of the Republic of China?
Although the results are similar, they are essentially different. Mainland awards welcome films from all China, while the Golden Horse Awards welcome Chinese-language films, as long as they speak Chinese. Singapore also speaks Chinese, and accepting mainland films is not because they feel that they are Chinese.
It’s just because the mainland also speaks Chinese, that’s all
