Venice International Film Festival Is Strong In Chinese Style &Nbsp; Three Chinese Films Are Finalists.

In Italy

Opening ceremony

The most spectacular appearance is the opening film "March 15th" director and starring George Clooney.

The Hollywood leader came on a motorboat and set off the highest fans' cheers this morning in Shuicheng.

He laughed at the news with reporters in the media group.

George Clooney: I like Venice and films.

Interviewer: do you want the international audience to understand you well?

George Clooney: I hope that even the American audience will not be able to understand.

There are many Chinese faces here.

Before the Venice film festival began, the Chinese media were surprised to find that three of the films were selected for the competition. They were Xu Anhua's peach sister, Wei Desheng's "Seth gram barley" and Johnny To's "killing gold".

Then who can win the golden lion?

Zhang Jialu, a reporter on CCTV film channel in Venice, told reporters in an interview with Gao Xiaoxiao and Yang Yang, the three reporters are all strength teams, all of whom have the possibility of winning the prize.

Zhang Jialu: there are about 23 to 24 films in Venice Film Festival every year. Most of the films are European and American movies.

This year, we accounted for three seats, namely, "Seth - barley", "kill the gold" and "peach sister".

Peach sister is the last work of director Xu Anhua before retiring.

Mark, chairman of the Venice Film Festival, saw the sample of peach sister in China before, and was moved to tears at that time.

If the chairman can give such affirmation, the jury should give some appreciation.

"Wei Desheng" is the director of "the game", which has been prepared for eight years, and it is believed that its production should be excellent.

The gold medal is directed by Johnny To.

He participated in the Venice Film Festival in 2009 as a jury and gave the Golden Lion award to Darren Allen.

This year, their positions have been changed. We are very confident that the chairman of the jury will give this award back to director Johnny To.

Compared to Oscar and Cannes Film Festival, the proportion of Chinese elements appearing in Venice Film Festival is still relatively large.

There are not only competing films, but also Chinese judges and others in other units.

Why does Venice like to blow the Chinese wind?

Zhang Jialu analysis, this is because there is a Chinese film chairman Marco Muller in Venice.

Zhang Jialu: This is the last time that Mr. Mark Muller has been chairman of the Venice Film Festival.

He has a strong Chinese complex, because he used to live in China in his early years.

And he has been promoting Chinese filmmakers and supporting the development of Chinese films.

I think he may throw the hydrangea balls to Chinese movies in his last term.

In addition, the theme of this competition is more consistent with the Venice Film Festival's consistent style. The commercial films are not particularly heavy. This may be the reason why Venice Film Festival favors Chinese films this year.

The meandering Water Lane, the flowing waves, the water city Venice is full of unique charm, even the film festival held here is no exception.

According to Zhang Jialu, there is a mysterious unit in the Venice Film Festival, which will finally reveal the surprise unit.

Zhang Jialu: the Venice Film Festival is different from other film festivals. Every time it releases 22 to 23 movies, then a movie is called a surprise movie.

When all reporters entered the projection room, they did not know which work the work was.

There have been surprises before becoming Golden Lion awards.
