On January 19, the 11th Sundance Film Festival kicked off; On January 21, the 52nd Golden Globe Awards kicked off.

At any point in the previous decade, this is a set of numbers without any comparison, and almost 99% of the media in the United States will focus on the Golden Globes, even if someone is willing to give Robert Redford face and report on Sundance, the length and strength of the report are absolutely incomparable to the Golden Globes, and Sundance can be said to be drowned in the wave of the Golden Globes.

This year, however, has taken a very different turn. When Hugo turned down the Golden Globe in favor of Sundance, almost everyone thought it was a slap in the face that Hugo threw in the face of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, Hugo rejected the star-studded Golden Globe, refused the best chance to win the Best Actor award, refused the much-anticipated feast, and chose a freak carnival in a remote valley, which can almost be said to be an insult, an insult to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, an insult to the mainstream of Hollywood as a whole.

The Chicago Tribune gloated, "Do you follow Sundance or the Golden Globes?" I think I'll choose to focus on Hugo. This black humorous ridicule makes people laugh, just the choice of an actor like Hugo actually created such a turbulent wave, which is indeed an unexpected situation.

This is not only the second year in a row that Hugo has refused the Golden Globe Award, but also the second year in a row that he has refused to attend as the favorite to win the award.

But the Golden Globes can't speak ill of them, because they're a star-studded feast - naturally no negative press will be allowed to spoil the excitement, and Hugo also apologized sincerely through Guò Rick, and used the "before sunrise" propaganda as a shield, so that the Golden Globes can only be swallowed in the stomach with broken teeth.

More than 40 reporters rushed to Park City in one go, which is certainly not comparable to the nearly 200 Golden Globe Awards, but for the Sundance Film Festival, which originally had less than 30 reporters to interview, it was simply ...... Carnival in the true sense of the word.

This was the case on the streets of Park City at this time, and every true independent film lover could hardly contain their excitement when they heard that the strange faces that had appeared in the town in the past two days were actually journalists, and that they were also reporters who had come to cover the festival with a friendly attitude, and they could hardly suppress their excitement and cheered and shouted, and this lively atmosphere instantly dispelled the cold of Park City.

Nicholas had just settled into the Sundance Film Festival and already fell in love with the land, not because of how warm and friendly the people were, but because of their genuine passion for film. Perhaps, if the film wants to survive, the supremacy of interests is a necessary choice; But if the film wants to continue life and vitality, the passion for art and the persistence of dreams can never be missing.

Standing on the land of Hollywood, Nicholas has become accustomed to the intrigue and hypocrisy behind the supremacy of interests; But standing on the land of Park City, Nicholas once again saw the purest and most simple movie dream, and this feeling was really really long gone.

Nicholas couldn't help but start to take a brisk step like everyone else around him, just like Dorothy and her friends heading towards the country of Oz, and the flying mood hung on the corners of his mouth to outline a touch of joy and comfort.

Suddenly, the marching procession stopped, not because they had reached their destination, but because they encountered an even larger procession, with at least a hundred people gathered in front of them, almost completely blocking the streets of the town, completely cutting off the passage to and fro. The townspeople on both sides of the street were not in a hurry, they all stood in front of their houses or on the balconies on the second floor, excitedly watching the lively scene in front of them, and whistled and shouted twice from time to time, as if they had seen a noisy scene of bullfighting in the street.

"What's wrong?" Nicholas inquired curiously, in fact, such a scene is often seen at the three major European film festivals, when a popular and widely admired master appears, all the admirers will flock to the road, blocking the entire road. But at the Sundance Film Festival, Nicholas wasn't so sure: Is there such a prestigious authority on independent cinema now?

Could it be Robert Redford?

"Normal." Kayla said in a cheerful tone, trying to gauge the crowd to see if anyone she knew, and casually explained, "You know, maybe Tom DiSiro (Tom. dicillo）。 ”

"Who?" Nicholas prides himself on knowing Hollywood very well, but when he hears the name, his head is full of question marks.

'Tom DiCillo?' Kermera Rhapsody (living. in。 oblivion)'s director? Kayla raised her voice with a "you're an idiot" expression, which made Nicholas feel a little embarrassed, and his eyes couldn't help but wander. Kayla spread her hands depressedly, "I'm a fool, and I don't want to know who I'm talking to. It was a self-deprecating remark, but it made Nicholas's cheeks feel a little hot.

As a veteran journalist, Nicholas's face is comparable to the city wall, not to mention that Kayla is not directly aimed at him, even if he points at his nose and scolds, he will not change his face, but at this moment, Nicholas deeply feels the shame: the shame of not knowing anything about independent films. Standing on the land of Parker City, Nicholas's blood also seemed to begin to boil gradually.

"Yesterday's release of 'Rhapsody of Cavella' won a standing ovation from the audience, and it's about what happens during the filming of an independent film, and I think it's a great thing for any filmmaker! Wonderful! ”

Kayla said in a few words, but finally felt that her language was too pale, and had to pause and savor it, which made Nicholas feel like an outsider. For the first time, Nicholas developed a strong interest in independent cinema, not because of the attention that Hugo had drawn, but because of the admiration and dedication that Kayla developed for such a work whose name had never been heard at all, which gave Nicholas countless curiosity.

"That's right, Tom and Jim Jarmusch. jarmusch) is a good friend! He served as the 'Long Vacation Stretcher' (Perma. vacation)' and 'Paradise Stranger (Strahan. paradise)'s photographer! Kayla finally thought of this key point and said excitedly.

"Hah!" Nicholas immediately understood, and when he mentioned Jim Jarmusch, the whole idea was immediately clear, this is one of the most famous independent directors in the United States, and he has repeatedly won international film festivals. In fact, Jim also came out of Sundance in the first place, he participated in the first Sundance Film Festival, and won the Special Jury Prize for the work "Stranger in Paradise".

Unexpectedly, Tom Disiro was actually the photographer of "Stranger to Paradise". No wonder it is said that there is a dragon and a crouching tiger in the field of independent films!

But before Nicholas could react, his attention was interrupted by the screams around him, and this familiar scene immediately made Nicholas's mind automatically appear on the red carpet of the Golden Globe Awards ceremony. Nicholas relied on the reporter's instinct to raise his head immediately, and then saw that the scale of more than 100 onlookers in front of him had almost doubled, and at this time, half of the street was filled with people, and everyone was screaming and shouting passionately frantically, this scene made Nicholas have an illusion: Is this the Hollywood Hilton Hotel?

This time, the Golden Globe Awards ceremony was held at the Hilton Hotel.

But Nicholas looked around, it was still snow-capped Park City, with simple streets and simple buildings revealing a strong atmosphere of depression, but when he looked back, the surging crowd was not much worse than the Golden Globe red carpet. "Kayla!" Nicholas turned his head to look for the little girl and ask what was going on, but he couldn't find Kayla, and there was only a constant stream of people around.

Nicholas stood on tiptoe and searched around, but unfortunately he still didn't see Kayla's figure, the crowd at the scene was getting more and more, and it was not so easy to find a specific object, hesitated for a while, and in desperation, Nicholas could only run forward quickly. As a journalist, it's a must-have skill to find opportunities to catch news in the midst of crowds.

Nicholas kept squeezing forward from the crowd, but instead of squeezing towards the center, he drilled into the area next to the crowd that was not so dense, and after finding the door of the house next to it, he climbed to the stump of a tree with almost only branches left, and looked down condescendingly, and immediately saw the scene in the field at this time.

In the center, three people gathered together, and the reason why they are said to be three people is because these three people are tightly pressed against each other's backs, standing in place and unable to move at all, even if the crowd around them is turbulent, they can still clearly see the figures of these three people, as if they are a huge rock in the turbulence - but the waves around them are constantly lapping, as if the rock can be broken at any time.

With these three people as the center, they circled around and circled, and in Nicholas's eyes, there were at least two hundred people on the scene, completely blocking the street, and there was no way to move at all. At this time, the scene has become a scene where people inside can't get out, and there are people piling up outside, and the order of the scene has completely lost control.

"Hugo! Hugo ...... I love you", "Oh God, God, God! Hugo, woo woo woo ......", "Hugo, marry me, Hugo!" "Ahh......hh Lancaster! Ah......h

At this time, it was Hugo who was trapped in the center and could not move, only Hugo-
