Chapter 876 The troops are divided into two groups
There are generally two ways to participate in the Cannes Film Festival.
A kind of residential hotel, staying briefly for one or two nights and then leaving in a hurry. This is often the case for guests who rely on brand sponsorship to get the opportunity to attend.
One is to rent a villa, where the entire crew lives together, ensuring that they come in and out together, and work together to complete promotional tasks during Cannes.
Of course, nothing is absolute——
Some brand sponsors may choose to rent villas, and some crew members may also live in hotels.
Anson is a special case.
Originally, Dior had booked a room for Anson in the most luxurious and top-notch hotel in Cannes. The Cinema Palace was right outside the door. Not only was the transportation convenient, but it also attracted much attention. He lived under the spotlight of the Cannes Film Festival every minute.
However, Anson had different ideas.
Anson is planning to stay in Cannes for two weeks. In addition to the screening of "Elephant", he will also be completely integrated into the carnival atmosphere of the film festival. He will not come to stay briefly to attend the premiere and then leave in a hurry. .
Therefore, Anson declined Dior's kindness, Edgar rented the villa, and Noah arrived in Cannes two days in advance to take care of everything for Anson and welcome Anson and his friends.
The villa is hidden in a lush green, fresh and tender, and a small corner of the ivory white building is looming.
The two-story building has eight rooms, not only a spacious and bright hall, but also a dining room and study room filled with retro furniture.
Open the balcony window, open your arms and embrace the boundless blue. The ocean and sky extend all the way to the horizon in your field of vision.
Looking at the end of the world, I can't help but start to imagine what the round earth looks like. Is it really possible to go all the way around the earth and return to the starting point?
However, Anson didn't have time to stare at the blue in a daze.
Put down your luggage, take a short rest, and then Noah takes Anson away——
Towards the center of the town.
This time at the Cannes Film Festival, Anson's look is divided into two parts:
Melvin is responsible for all the private clothes. He has selected them all in advance, and Noah Bring it to Cannes and leave it to Anson to mix and match.
The red carpet clothing will be handed over to Dior. Anson will fulfill his promise. It doesn't matter if he misses the Oscar. Now back at Dior's home court, Eddie Slimane will be fully responsible for Anson's appearance in Cannes.
While in Paris, Anson had already met with Eddie Slimane, tried on clothes, made selections, and finally decided on a few looks.
However, here is a detail -
This year, Eddie's design is completely close-fitting, although it has been very close-fitting in the past two years; but this year it goes further, it can even be said to be tight-fitting, showing off perfectly Thin, pale temperament, similar to vampire effect.
The key point is that the clothes are tight, but the upper body of the model should not look tight. This also means that every detail and every inch of fabric is crucial.
Therefore, the last fitting was completed in Paris, but that was already three weeks ago; after arriving in Cannes, Anson needed to do another fitting.
Even if there is a slight error, Eddie needs to make adjustments quickly.
Now, Anson is heading to the hotel to meet Eddie for a fitting, ensuring that Eddie still has time to adjust before the premiere of "Elephant".
The Croisette runs from east to west along the beach. This is the most central and busiest avenue in the town of Cannes. If you get lost, you only need to find this straight and spacious street, which means you have found your direction.
Hotels, movie palaces, restaurants, bars... In addition, major luxury brands have opened flagship stores here, waiting for tourists to visit.
It is no exaggeration to say that this is the essence of Cannes.
Of course, everyone is eager to live on the Croisette and stand under the spotlight. Cannes is a small city, and hotel accommodation is extremely tight. Hotels on the Croisette often need to be booked six months or more in advance, otherwise It may be squeezed out of the center of focus.
Among the many hotels, the three top luxury hotels on the Esplanade have become the crown jewels. Everyone is eager to stay here. Even if there is no action, they can become the center of attention when they come in and out.
Among them, the Majestic Barrière Hotel in Cannes is the official partner hotel of the film festival. It is only about 100 meters away from the Film Palace. You can board the red carpet when you go out. It has also become the designated hotel of the jury. , most of the big-name guests in the main competition unit also stayed here. Among them, Dior is the largest official sponsor of the Cannes Film Festival. They have an entire floor in the Majestic Barriere Hotel in Cannes——
Not temporary.
All furniture, design, decoration, etc. are all from Dior's own official designs. Dior's special guests also all live here, with a unique style.
The residence Dior arranged for Anson is here.
Noah parked the vehicle steadily at the door of the hotel and looked at Anson with a slight hesitation.
"Are you sure you don't need my company? Edgar asked me to stay close to you. This is the only important thing."
Anson looked at Noah seriously, "Believe me, you have a more important task, okay? I need to understand the schedule of the entire film festival, as well as the screening arrangements of different units in different venues."
"Noah, do you know how busy it is to attend a film festival?"
Noah blinked and shook his head.
Ansen is used to it.
"Very well, it's okay not to know. So you should follow my instructions."
"Or do you want me to go to the Movie Palace and ask for the film schedule myself?"
"Oh, this is also a good idea. I heard that there are many treasures in the gift shop. Maybe I should go there and search for them myself. "
After the words came out, Noah shook his head again and again, like a rattle, "No, no, no, I'll go, just leave these trivial matters to me."
Anson was satisfied. Nodding, "Then, I will wait for your news. Remember, this is the only important thing today."
Get out of the car, close the door, and watch Noah's car drive away— —
Edgar was still too nervous, and Miles and the others were half-assed.
In Anson's view, the United States is the United States and Europe is Europe. These are two different things; and the atmosphere at the Cannes Film Festival is also different. No one will notice his existence, even if he is the current Spider-Man.
Of course, he is also looking forward to applause and cheers.
But more than himself, he looked forward to the applause and cheers for the "elephant".
At film festivals, appreciation of works is the real value.
Therefore, there is no need to be prepared.
As soon as he turned around, Anson saw the doorman standing at the door waiting to greet the guests.
The other party was obviously taken aback. Because he didn’t see the luggage or the accompanying people, and because he lacked the most important indicator for judging starlight and level, he didn’t react immediately and missed the picture completely. face.
Anson, however, nodded calmly and walked straight into the hotel lobby, checked the direction, and walked towards the elevator.
The doorman: Wait, what’s going on?
Before the doorman could react, Anson had successfully entered the elevator.
However!
Just when the elevator door was about to close, a hand stretched out and grabbed the elevator door, preventing it from closing, and squeezed in panting.
