Chapter 1063 1063 Different Support

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The sky above Park City reverberates with a uniform rhythm. This small town located in the valley is surrounded by mountains. The loud and shocking rhythm echoes leisurely in the valley, stirring up waves of echoes. It was as if there were thousands of spectators in the distance responding, making the whole town seem to be wearing red dancing shoes and began to dance to the rhythm of the beat, and the excited tap dance steps resounded all over the world.

This is a Sundance Film Festival destined to go down in history. Not only because of Hugo's appearance, not only because reporters first paid attention to this little-known film festival, not only because this self-entertaining family reunion made its debut on the American stage, but also because when Joseph and Satsuma When Ra led more than 600 audience members to beat the rhythm of "bang bang bang", the whole North American continent heard the blood-boiling sound.

Hugo was shocked, and Charlize was also shocked. They didn't expect that Joseph and Samora, who had disappeared for more than half an hour, came up with such a solution with the organizer, which not only brought out the enthusiasm of the fans to the fullest. , but also made the scene a well-ordered sea of ​​joy.

"Bang bang bang", this is the rhythm of glory to death. During the tour, the young volcanoes used to express their support for the band. There was no cheering or shouting, just a uniform rhythm can create an unparalleled powerful momentum. Even at the launch of the new album "Bathing in the Morning Light", this shocking beat directly gave birth to the song "Young. Volcanoes", which gave the fans of glory to death an official unified name for the first time. .

But today, Hugo has once again witnessed such a strong voice of support on a film occasion, and it is also a holy place for independent films.

In fact, how similar is independent film and indie rock: full of personality, unique in the niche, not accommodated by the mainstream, ignored and excluded by people, a wide variety but weak competitiveness, always wandering on the edge, difficult to survive... But, glory To the death, he led indie rock to create another world, and Hugo made the world turn its attention to independent films.

Therefore, it is so appropriate and perfect to use the "young volcano" to describe the indie rock fans to describe the avid fans of independent movies.

At this moment, the scene is like a volcano, and countless young flames are beating forever, igniting all the oxygen in the air, making the scene a sea of ​​flames, and the whole valley has become an active volcano. !

Hugo was stunned for a while, but then a smile was quietly drawn on the corner of his mouth. Yes, once fans lose control, the situation can become terrible; on the other hand, the reason why they lose control is because the fever is constantly erupting in their bodies, and their support methods may be wrong, but they cannot be erased their enthusiasm. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to safety, but it is not necessary to be a soldier.

Because the group of fans, for artists, is the cutest person in the world. Their enthusiasm, their madness, and their support are the driving force for artists to keep moving forward, and the surging volcanic eruption is the driving force for artists to keep working hard. It is also a bridge for artists to return to society.

The power of role models is not only the influence of the artist's every move as an idol, but also the powerful influence reflected on the supporters after the artist sets an example.

Hugo relies on his influence to make people pay attention to the horror of the witch trial, and relies on his influence to make people aware of the harm of media interests. Perhaps, Hugo can now rely on his influence to let people know that fans Safety and self-control are not only the fans' own awareness, but also the artist's responsibility.

So, Hugo straightened up again and turned to look at Charlize who was standing beside him. At this time, Charlize was so shocked that he was speechless.

Hearing it is one thing, and feeling it on the spot is another. Even on TV and on the scene are completely different. Although Charlize once saw the shock at the launch of the new album "Bathing in the Morning Light" on the TV screen, when she experienced it personally today, the overwhelming rhythm wave concentrated on her almost instantly, like a continuous tide. , resounding like thunder, shaking like a volcano.

"Bang bang bang", the neat and shocking rhythm is matched with enthusiastic and crazy expressions, all the audience seems to have turned into red magma, surging in Charlize's eyes, the magma that almost rushed to the face even It can make her feel the burning sensation on her skin!

Hugo patted Charlize on the shoulder, and then she took Hugo's arm in a daze, and the two walked forward. The distance of fifty yards seemed so close and yet so far, and I couldn't feel the footsteps at all, but in a blink of an eye, I was already in the middle of the erupting volcano. It detonated, the violent impact suddenly stopped breathing, and then when the fresh air was felt again, it was already a wave of hot steam.

The "bang bang bang" applause was like a wave of a hundred-story building, rising high above his head, as if the next second would smash his head and cover his face, and then smash himself into countless pieces and melt. in this turbulent magma.

Hugo looked at Joseph and Samora, who were already revelling. The helpless smile at the corners of his mouth was clearly transmitted to the eyes of the two. Then he saw Samora whistling excitedly, and Joseph's tense face was bright. He laughed, obviously both of them were satisfied with Hugo's reaction.

Hugo and Charlize didn't stop, just paused slightly, and continued to walk through the magma. Actually Hugo and Charlize were not dressed up today because it was the Sundance Film Festival and because there was no official red carpet, Hugo wore a navy blue T-shirt, denim blue plaid shirt, washed blue patch jeans and navy A blue motorcycle jacket and jacket; Charlize chose a pearl white sweater, navy blue jeans and a sky blue rivet leather jacket, and stepped on a pair of big red pointed-toe mid-heeled high-heeled shoes.

The two looked nothing like young men going to a rock party, not entertainers at a movie premiere. But it is precisely this kind of dress that is seamlessly connected with the strong and crazy atmosphere of the scene. Such a down-to-earth ordinary dress makes everyone on the scene become one.

As Hugo and Charlize moved forward, the crowd behind them gradually closed, as if the sea merged where Moses passed after crossing the sea. When the two walked to the back panel of the cinema door, all the more than 600 people gathered into a vast ocean, and the echoes of the "bang bang bang" made the whole valley sound loud and shocking, I am afraid that not far away Salt Lake City can feel the overwhelming enthusiasm here.

At this moment, even the reporters couldn't bear it any longer, they put down their cameras and started to join in this grand carnival. This is the real appeal of Hugo, beyond the fear of chaos three days ago, beyond the hustle and bustle of the Golden Globe Awards, beyond the value of ordinary entertainers to audiences, and even beyond the pundits and news media to ordinary people. Influence, the powerful influence that can generate infinite wavelengths with just a single gesture has become the decisive factor for the 11th Sundance Film Festival to go down in history. driving force.

"Before Sunrise" has very few main creators. Alex didn't show up because he was still busy filming "Happy Family". Producer David Geffen didn't make an appearance and stayed behind the scenes. In addition, the screenwriter and the actor are the same person, so Hugo, Charlize and Richard Linklater came to the scene, that's all.

But just these three people are enough. When the appeal of "bang bang bang" finally came to an end, the screams and shouts of the scene were completely released, and Robert Redford was in such a sensational scene down to the scene.

As the founder of the Sundance Film Festival, Robert often attends the premieres of some films to express his support and encouragement. Today, it is not surprising that he arrived at the scene in person. In fact, in the eyes of many people, Robert and Hugo have had a holiday, because Robert has always been close to Brad Pitt, which has been the case since "Big River Love", and Brad also benefited from Robert's work in The extensive network of people in the circle has benefited a lot.

People say that Brad is very similar to Robert when he was young, and it even looks like a mold. His handsome appearance and outstanding tough guy temperament are worthy of the title of "Golden Boy", so Robert has always had a close relationship with Brad. add. Because of Brad and Hugo's rivalry, Robert naturally didn't like Hugo.

But when it comes to the Sundance Film Festival, Robert's most important brainchild, things are different. Leaving aside what Hugo and Pulp Fiction mean to indie films—because Pulp Fiction didn't make its fortune at Sundance anyway, but Hugo was willing to bring Before Sunrise to Park City , and brought the focus of the media, and even stole a lot of the Golden Globes, which is very important for Robert.

This also means that Robert's original intention to let the public feel the charm of independent films has taken the most important step.

So it was to be expected that Robert came to the "Before Sunrise" premiere for Sundance's dream.

No, Robert didn't just come to cheer, he even took over the job of the host and started a brief interview with the main creators at the premiere. It was much beyond the reporters' expectations.

Could it be that Robert was going to drop Brad in favor of Hugo, who had a bigger push for indie films?
