As a tourist destination and a holiday destination, the water city of Venice is lively and lively all year round, even in the cold winter, with warm sunshine, noisy crowds, lazy life, wonderful food, ancient Architecture, rich culture and friendly people, everything attracts people to come to this city, to secretly treasure the comfort and beauty of a ray of sunshine in the winter of the northern hemisphere. &1t;/p>

This is even more so during the Carnival in February and the Film Festival in September. &1t;/p>

This year is the special anniversary of the 70th anniversary of the Venice Film Festival. All the activities and ceremonies are different. Three days before the countdown to the opening ceremony, people from all over the world began to flock into Italy, like a rolling tide into this piece of floating in Asia. On a square inch of land on the edge of the Derian Sea. &1t;/p>

The film festival has not yet officially kicked off, and the bustling rumors and heated discussions have already started to boil ahead of time——&1t;/p>

About the power struggle within the organizing committee, about the determination of the chairman of the jury Bernardo Bertolucci to support Italian films, about the quality of the works in the main competition section, about the fork in the festival's seventieth anniversary Future exhibition plans...and so on. &1t;/p>

It is precisely because this is the special day of the 70th anniversary of Venice that the Italian mainstream media and film industry executives all believe that this is a memorable year. If local Italian films can stabilize the Golden Lion Award, then it will be good for the future of the film festival. For the local film industry exhibition, this is of positive significance. &1t;/p>

However, there were different voices within the organizing committee. Some people insisted that the film festival should be a film festival, and everything should focus on the film itself. Now it is no longer the film environment of the 1930s and 1940s. In order to support local films , you can learn from Berlin's practice, but the film festival still needs to win with quality. &1t;/p>

In other words, it's actually a debate about home-field advantage. &1t;/p>

It is often said that Italy is the China/country of Europe. This is not without reason. From culture to tradition, from customs to habits, there are many similarities between the two countries. As for the future exhibition planning of the Venice Film Festival, you can see it in detail. &1t;/p>

It is foreseeable that this year's main competition unit is bound to attract more attention; more importantly, in order to celebrate the 70th anniversary, the Venice Film Festival has spent a lot of thought and invited many big figures to come to the film festival to join us. Looking back now , but it is impossible to determine whether this is a good thing or a bad thing. If you are not careful, you may have an epic embarrassment. &1t;/p>

However, the big names who first arrived in Venice have no intention to pay attention to the competition for the main competition unit. After all, there are still a few days before the opening of the film festival, and the most popular figure in recent days is undoubtedly Renly Hall. &1t;/p>

Andre Hamilton, the head of Scotland's top whisky brand, and the youngest son of the hereditary aristocratic Duke of Hamilton's family, held a private party in the name of Renly Hall, inviting guests to his private residence , enjoy a beautiful night together, and warm up for the global screening of "Gravity". &1t;/p>

The private party became a hot topic in the European film industry. &1t;/p>

The reason is simple: there are only two hundred party invitations. &1t;/p>

Looking at the European film industry, there are definitely not many top figures who can stand at the top of the pyramid, but there are definitely more than 200 people; in addition, some of the invitations that night were given to real aristocrats in Europe and Asia.

It covers Sweden, Britain, France, Denmark, Arabia and many other countries that still retain the royal family and nobles. &1t;/p>

In other words, this itself is a small group of the most top and most distinguished groups, most of which are names that have been heard but never had the opportunity to meet; now, this party actually only has 200 places open, No one can be an exception, this is the real weak water three thousand only take a scoop. &1t;/p>

The competition became fiercer than Oscar night. &1t;/p>

Every elite person and every upper class is eager to receive an invitation letter, not only to expand contacts or open their eyes, but also to prove their social status and become the so-called top class. Not money, not glory, not fame, but honor. &1t;/p>

It was because of this that the name "Arthur Hall" spread for the first time among the upper classes of Europe, because he was the party planner, and he had a list of invitees in his hands. Many people have started to inquire about how the names on this list were chosen——&1t;/p>

Hand-picked by Renly and Andre? Or recommended by an acquaintance? Or is it a spontaneous recommendation? &1t;/p>

Also, what is the level of the invitees? First in line to the prince or princess? Chairman of the listed group? The head of the family? Or is it a level lower, to make sure the party doesn't become a dull social occasion, but retains the carnival vibe of a film festival? &1t;/p>

Overnight, Arthur became hot. &1t;/p>

According to rumors, in the black market, an invitation letter has been hyped to 100,000 euros. But the rumors are just rumors, because everyone who receives an invitation letter doesn't care about 100,000 euros at all, and there is absolutely no sign of any invitation letter in the market. &1t;/p>

In the end, 200 people are 200 people. Andre Hamilton did what he said and did not open up more possibilities because of the hype of the topic. As for whether the guests who received the invitation were present, Andre didn't care at all. &1t;/p>

That night, a large number of news media were densely gathered at the private pier at the entrance of Duke Hamilton's private residence. They were all on the sea surface and could not hide their tracks at all, so they simply stood at the door openly, filmed blatantly, and counted each and every one of them. A guest present. &1t;/p>

Unexpectedly but reasonable, most of the guests' faces are relatively unfamiliar, and only a few senior entertainment reporters can tell some rules-because these are the big guys who are really hidden behind the scenes, He rarely makes public appearances, but he has real top-level resources in his hands. &1t;/p>

What is certain is that each name is full of weight, low-key and luxurious. This is the real aristocratic party. &1t;/p>

It is worth mentioning that all the invited London nobles attended the party. &1t;/p>

For outsiders, they don't understand the ins and outs of it at all, and naturally they can't understand the significance of today's invitation; but for insiders, they clearly know what this invitation letter means. In other words, what exactly does this party mean. &1t;/p>

Although the name of the invitation is Andre Hamilton, not Renly Hall; although the invitation is for young nobles between the ages of 20 and 35, not the person in power who is now in charge of the house; although the number of invitations is controlled at Fifteen copies only, and for a formal party, it can only be said to be sprinkled with water. &1t;/p>

But it was clear to every London aristocrat who did not attend that this was the first time Renly-Hall had formally invited the aristocracy as an actor, not "the youngest son of the Halls"; , this is the first time Arthur Hall has officially hosted a private party as a person, building a bridge between the aristocracy and the film. Then, the meaning is naturally extraordinary. &1t;/p>

The attitude of London's upper class was evident when all fifteen invited guests arrived in Venice, attended the party that night, and enjoyed a fantastic evening. &1t;/p>

The British upper class on the other side of the English Channel has begun to speculate, does this mean that Renly will officially return to London's social circle? &1t;/p>

However, their guesses were all wrong -- at least not 100% correct. The reason why Renly invited the London nobles, on the one hand, was Andre's idea. He hoped to improve the quality of the party, and it was undoubtedly the easiest to use his personal connections; on the other hand, it was Renly's idea, for Arthur. &1t;/p>

Renly never brought it up, but Arthur knew it. &1t;/p>

Renly didn't give any affirmation on his lips, but behind his back he was doing his best to support him, just like he supported Edith at the beginning, and now it was Arthur's turn. &1t;/p>

This is not an important move for Renly, even if he stands up for Arthur means tit-for-tat with Elf, he doesn't care about Elf's emotions at all; but for Arthur But it is vital support. &1t;/p>

Everyone says that there is no kinship among nobles. Arthur used to think so too, but now he has changed his mind. &1t;/p>

Behind a party, there is still a war without gunpowder, not as intense as before, but it still exists. &1t;/p>

Maybe no one cares about Renly's role as an actor anymore, but compared to professions like bankers, lawyers, and gallery owners, acting still doesn't seem to be a profession worthy of special mention, not to mention aristocrats, just Even many tyrants or ordinary people don't care much. &1t;/p>

Renly was destined to be an outlier. &1t;/p>

However, there is another group of aliens gathered around Renly now, Andre, Matthew, Eaton, Edith... and Arthur. &1t;/p>

After the private party ended, almost no one could know the content and details of the party. The top bigwigs were not willing to be interviewed at all, even Alfonso Cuaron, Scarlett Johansson, Judy, who attended the party. -Dan Qi and others also laughed without answering, and closed their mouths firmly. &1t;/p>

Immediately afterwards, you sang and I came on stage at another party. This time the protagonist was still "Gravity", but the organizer became Warner Bros. &1t;/p>

The night before the official opening of the Venice Film Festival, Warner Bros. held a warm-up party for "Gravity". The party planner was still Arthur Hall, but the invitees were much more approachable and came to Venice. Many celebrities attending the festival have received invitations, and even many top journalists are also invited. &1t;/p>

This is a simple pre-screening party, but it has become different because of Arthur Hall's planning. &1t;/p>
