Chapter 696: The Legendary Movie Queen (6)
Although James was not convinced, he still stood up and went on stage, when the light came on.
He received the award and gave his acceptance speech, before he went back and sat down next to Ling Yan and said, “You must be the best actress, otherwise we will lose terribly.”
It would be very embarrassing if they only received an award that was not actually a Lugano Film Award
After the award was given, it was followed by the Best Director Award.
It was a French movie, a movie about the war in the Middle East.
Gu Weiwei had watched this movie before, and although she felt a bit regretful that she did not receive the award, she felt that the recipient of the award was well deserved.
That was because it was not easy to make such a movie, no matter how much preparation and filming was done. It was even harder to make it so well.
Also, this director was a famous director who opposed the war.
Now that the international situation was tense, the award given to him by the Lugano Film Festival was meaningful.
In the WeChat group, Fu Shiyi and the others were gloating.
Fu Shiyi: [Neither us or Dream of a Long Life 2 received the Best Director Award, so it doesn’t matter who gets it.]
Jolin: [I was watching the livestream and when the Fibisi Award was announced, James turned green. He must have not expected that it would be such a ‘surprise’ award.]
Fu Shiyi laughed and gloated happily.
[I have decided not to report the judging panel of the Lugano Film Festival.]
When James went to attend the Lugano Film Festival, he received an award that was not given out by the Lugano Film Festival. This award was too well presented.
Jolin: [As long as Ling Yan is not the best actress, we will still win.]
Compared to the Fibisi Award, the Best Actress Award was a bit more significant.
Fu Shiyi: [If it ends up being her, I will complain to the judges!]
If his sister-in-law did not get the Best Actress Award, why should that Ling Yan get it?
Seeing their conversation, Gu Weiwei was too lazy to comment.
After the Best Director Award was given, the Best Actor and Best Actress Award were revealed.
However, the host deliberately made a joke to stall for time and slowly invited the Best Actor from last year’s Lugano Film Festival to the stage, to reveal the Best Male and Female Lead.
Last year’s Movie King went on stage and made fun of the host, before he announced the Best Actor Award in front of everyone.
“This year’s Best Actor of the Lugano Film Festival is... Robert Durant!”
This year, Robert Durant starred in a film about biographies, it showcased the passing of time from childhood to old age and it was a movie that focused on the performance of the actors.
He deserved the award.
The crowd burst into applause and congratulated Robert Durant.
Robert Durant expressed his acceptance speech and thanked the audience.
After he got off the stage, the host said happily.
“Now it is time to reveal our most anticipated award, who is our most dazzling queen tonight?”
Ling Yan took a deep breath and nervously waited for the answer.
Now that everyone who could be her opponent was excluded, she was the only one left.
The host did not announce it directly but said, “Let’s invite Bach to reveal our Movie Queen tonight.”
