On December 16, the first Hainan Island International Film Festival "Master Carnival", sponsored by the Hainan Provincial Government and undertaken by Hainan Island International Film Festival Co., Ltd., welcomed a heavyweight film giant - Isabelle Hupel, known as the "Queen of French Literary and Art Films". Young directors such as Yang Yiheng, Sukino Xifei and Xu Lei also attended the forum and held a dialogue with Yu Peier. Huppel was born in Paris, France in 1953 and is now 65 years old. In the past 50 years, Huper has starred in more than 120 films, "In fact, I value quality more than quantity, and when choosing scripts, I believe in intuition, I don't care whether the director is a man or a woman, and I don't care if it's a newcomer or a big name." After making her screen debut in 1971, Huppel quickly became the top actress of her time. In Michael Haneke's Piano Teacher, Huper plays a sexually repressed piano teacher, "Michael Haneke is a very accurate person, and it will be easy to work with him because he is very rational and never sentimental." Huppel recalled that although there were large-scale and very emotional emotional scenes in "The Piano Teacher", she did not feel embarrassed in interpreting, "This is the credit of Michael Haneke, no one forced me to do any performance, everything was in the script, it was a matter of course." ”
In Paul Verhoeven's Her, Huppel plays a professional woman who is raped by a masked person at home, but gives up calling the police because of her dark past experiences. Huper believes that although there are also intense passion scenes, "She" is completely different from "The Piano Teacher": "This is actually a very shocking story, she could have chosen to call the police, but she decided to take revenge on herself, there is no warmth." 」 Huppel also laughed that although the ending of "Her" is that the male protagonist is "killed" by the female protagonist, no one will feel "guilty", "This is a game." Huper said. Huppel has been nominated for the César Award 16 times, is the most nominated actress for a César Award, and twice won the César Award for Best Actress. In 1978, she won the British Academy film and television arts award for Best Newcomer for The Weave Girl. In addition, she became a Cannes film queen twice for "Violet Nozier" and "The Piano Teacher", and won the Best Actress Award at the Venice Film Festival twice for "Woman Rhymes" and "Cold Festival". In this regard, Yu Peiyun was light-hearted: "The awards are just awards, they have not brought any impact on my life." ”
As a bridge between masters and young directors, "Master Carnival" not only carries the beautiful hope of "blue is better than blue", but also explores more opportunities and possibilities for young and talented filmmakers to cooperate. At the forum, Young Director Yang Yiheng from Malaysia unreservedly expressed his admiration for Pell, and Yu Pell also recalled her two collaborations with South Korean director Hong Sang-so, who believed that Asian directors could bring her a more oriental perspective.
Japanese female director Sugino's fan mentality was even more exposed, asking: "Aren't you afraid of those thrillers you made before?" Do you dare to watch it repeatedly? Huper laughed and said that film is art, in fact, it is also entertainment, "I am just fearless, this may be my talent." 」 As soon as this remark came out, it was immediately applauded by the whole hall.
Huppel's queenly demeanor is also reflected in her attitude towards her acting career. "Don't think of me as what a hard-working person, the script is usually read once and then stopped reading. I'm lazy! Yupel said that what she is best at is to feel the characters with her heart, "A lot of things are intuitive, not how much desk reading you do is necessarily helpful, let the character live in your blood is the most important." 」 In Pelle's eyes, any role she plays is different from herself, "The most wonderful thing is that you see me in the movie, you don't know which part is me and which part is not." 」 ”
The Hainan Island International Film Festival is one of the leading projects for Hainan to build a free trade pilot zone and a free trade port with Chinese characteristics. With Jackie Chan as the ambassador, this year's film festival brings together Isabelle Hupper, Juliet Binoche, Max Mikkelsen, Nuri Bige Ceylon, Emma Dumont, as well as Zhang Zhen, Zhu Yilong and many other heavyweight filmmakers at home and abroad. The film festival will take "year-round screening, island-wide screening, national cinema, and whole industry chain" as its goal to create a "never-ending international film festival".
