In the history of world film,French movies are undoubtedly a wonderful pulse。Pioneer from the 1920s、Impressionism,Poetic realism from the 1930s,"New Wave Movement" in the 1950s and 1960s,French filmmakers with deep literature and drama have improved the artistic quality of the film in the exploration and development of the film。It can be said,French art films with full flavors have a charming temperament,"French aesthetics" leads the world movie trend all year round,Promoting and promoting the film will eventually become "Seventh Art"。
But now now,Under the influence of international political and social factors,"French Aesthetics" has gradually micro,"American Aesthetic" represented by Hollywood sweeps the global,Become the mainstream vane of the major theaters and film festivals。always clear、French film industry that disagrees with Hollywood,Cannes International Film Festival, including the Oscar film review standard,After all, I failed to escape this "aesthetic fusion"。

France and the United States' aesthetic and judgment standards for movies have been very different since the 20th century。For the French filmmakers and the Cannes International Film Festival they hosted,"Anti -Hollywood Aesthetics" is its long -term persistence。The 1950s and 1960s,A vigorous movie "New Wave Movement" swept France。This movement was launched by a group of independent young filmmakers,They oppose those of the Hollywood in the United States to be controlled by the public's interests、Formulating business films full of crickets,"High Concept" (High Concept),Opposition to "Producer Center System"。A large number of excellent "Author Movies" (that is, "Director Center System") appeared in France during this period),Make French movies Bet365 lotto review synonymous with art movies,It also laid the overall tone of French film aesthetics,Including attention to philosophy、Taking the underlying character as the object、Passing humanistic care、Not charming the public、Do not take for profit for the purpose,and promote the author's personality and other elements。
Early and medium -term at the Cannes International Film Festival,Selection and evaluation links all reflect these art commonality。For example,The director award of the 12th Cannes International Film Festival (1959) was awarded to the representative of the French New Inspur Film Francois Truffaut,1932-1984) "Four Hundred Strikes"。This movie starts from depicting an ordinary boy Anto Wan's daily life,Including him and parents、Friend、The teacher gets along,The traditional life of Paris residents over the past few hundred years with simple pictures。There is no deliberate plot turn in the whole film,Anto Wanshi and Stopping around,Sometimes a hurry to run,With a variety of life -oriented documentary methods, the real state of a 12 -year -old French boy in the middle of the 20th century。Obviously,This creative method that is separated from "routine" does not have commerciality,But this is exactly the pure pursued by the French film including the Cannes International Film Festival、Open、Anti -routization。That's it,A fledgling young director、A small cost black and white work,It has become an important representative work in the history of French art film development,It is also a banner of the "French aesthetic" movie。
With the establishment of the EU in the 1990s,and the continuous advancement of the European integrated cultural strategy,EURIMAGES began to participate in the creation of European art films with a lot of capital,Export European art movies to the world with a joint attitude,The impact of fighting the Hollywood film industry。The Cannes International Film Festival has also officially became an important platform for promoting European art films。In Bet365 app download more than half a century,,French film industry has always resisted Hollywood -style "American aesthetic",If you pay attention to sensory stimuli、Plot dog blood and high investment、High Propaganda, etc.,and oppose the Oscar jury will celebrate、Investment、Box office, etc. as the way of film judgment standards。
For a long time,Art Film has always been a guest at the Cannes International Film Festival,Light in the prevalence of "French aesthetics"。1999,"Beauty Rosetta", written and directed by Dardenne Brothers (Dardenne Brothers), premiered in the 52nd Cannes International Film Festival,Gold Palm Awards for the Lord's Competition Unit。This film focuses on a ordinary 18 -year -old girl Roseta,Tell the story of its dignity in a difficult environment。From the perspective of shooting style,The film uses a large number of tracking shots,Permiated with Rosea's heavy breathing sounds to express the character's dilemma and the cruel indifference of the social environment,and the audience can follow the rhythm of the camera and always surround her。other,"Taste of Cherry" (1997)、"Eternal Day" (1998) and other periods of the Golden Palm Awards won and shortlisted movies,All are full of philosophy、Poetic movies with slow rhythm,The light shining with humanistic care。
So,The Cannes International Film Festival and Oscar, which are mainly "American aesthetics", have been in the opposite of the world,The first film premiered by the former has only been recognized by Oscar。
French position and American standard choice
But,Under the promotion of the global wave,Due to the strong output of American culture,always arrogant、Elegant French film industry has also begun to only "American aesthetic" horse heads。A significant fact is that the film released by the Cannes International Film Festival is selected as the gradual increase in Oscar nominated,Only 2018-2022 (including four sessions) will have seven parts,Among them, "Parasite" (2019) also won the Golden Palm Award and Oscar Gold Award for the Cannes International bet365 Play online games Film Festival at the same time。All signs are reminding the audience: The Cannes International Film Festival has gradually moved closer to American standards in the selection and judgment of the film,Even going to convergence。French art movies are gradually micro。
So,"Follow" or "No follow",This is a problem。
2020,Oscar organizer American Film Arts and Sciences announced that the Oscar awards ceremony starts from 96th,Candidates for all the best films must meet the new requirements of "diversified",That is the main support of the nominated film、behind -the -scenes staff、Production company and distribution company、Four parts of the publicity and marketing units need to reach the minority group in which they stipulates、Number of small groups and women groups。,First, the proportion of female directors has risen sharply,93rd、94 Oscar Best Director Award winners are all female directors,Director Zhao Ting, director of "No Type"、"Dog Power" director Jane Campion,They are also the second in the history of Oscar in the past century、Three female director who won this award。
In recent years of evaluation awards,The Cannes International Film Festival is also very concerned about "American Standards",Even careful、Following also trend。For example,American media have repeatedly criticized the Cannes International Film Festival "Scarcity of Women's Works Women's Works Woning in Golden Palm Awards",Also blame its "discriminatory female director"。To avoid being criticized,The organizer of the Cannes International Film Festival has significantly increased the female director's movie in the main competition unit in recent years。It is undeniable,With the rise of the concept of "feminist movie",More and more female directors have emerged in major film festivals,Use their unique delicate、Intuition and flexibility,Added a different female image to the screen,Expressing rich social issues。But,Some shortlisted films have to be said to be deliberate。For example,The 75th Cannes International Film Festival Gold Camera Bet365 lotto review Award nominated film "Female Rights response" (2022) interviews and records dozens of cities for street participants for feminist propaganda activities,Compared with other documentary,The theme of the film is clear but the content is thin,Single expression method,It is considered a rough work of "form is greater than content"。
After the Details of the Oscar "Mandatory Diversification" were introduced,The 76th Cannes International Film Festival in 2023 also became a big stage for female director movies,Female directors who are shortlisted for the competition unit are as many as six digits,Cain the latest record。Not only the opening film "Earl Dubali" is a work directed by a female director,and the most noticeable Golden Palm Awards also awarded to French female director Justine Triet's "Analysis of Fall"。But,Under the blessing of elements such as criminal suspense and marriage conflict,This film is more like a female work with a type of coat。
Miscellaneous Miscellaneous
Early Cannes International Film Festival and even the French film industry to show the principles and features of "Art Film",Adhere to the promotion of "French aesthetics" to fight against American business movies。In recent years,From the perspective of the movie films of the Unit of the Cannes International Film Festival,The French are no longer obsessed with art films and "European flavors"。
"Earl Earl Dubali" (opening film of the 76th Cannes International Film Festival) was directed by French female director Maiwenn Le Besco and played the role of the protagonist Dubali,Hollywood first -line actor Johnny Depp, who has been nominated by Oscar three times, plays the actor。The film describes the ladder of young girl Jenny climbing to the ladder of the noble society,The story of becoming the darling of King Louis Fifteen Dad。It is adapted from a historical story that is unknown from France -Louis 15,It is the longest time in the history of French history,However, it is full of controversy due to corruption and sinking wine。In the grand bet365 Play online games historical subject、Drama Structure of Three Crossing Matters、The blessing of elements such as the front -line Hollywood star,This film is undoubtedly a "high -concept movie" with a commercial attraction。other,"Flower Moon Killer" directed by Martin Scorsese、Hollywood Adventure Action Giant System "Treasure Wind Soldiers 5" and other films are also "American aesthetic" works launched at this Cannes International Film Festival。You can see,The Cannes International Film Festival has high attention to such "commercial value" and "heat" films only increased without decrease。
Now,"French Aesthetic" and "American Aesthetic" seem to be no longer a pure "art" and "business" opposition,Instead, it has evolved into "art films that integrate commercial elements" and "commercial movies that integrate artistic"。"Water Form Story" (2017)、"Tragic World" (2020)、"Athena" (2022) and other French films have found a balance in "art" and "business"。They are often compact rhythm,Mature lens and scene scheduling,script creation and space aesthetic design, all have a high level of commercial standards,Compared to the Hollywood blockbus。But at the artistic level,It can also reflect the philosophical thoughts that are unbearable in commercial films,and to society、Deep reflection of human nature。It is undeniable,Future,The Cannes International Film Festival and Oscar may be when more films take into account "artistic" and "commerciality",Gradually move towards integration。
France and EU changes in political and international relations,Not only affects economic activities,It is also manifested in cultural activities。Even the "French aesthetic" once led the world,Under the embarrassment of the international situation and commercial resources,French filmmakers have to consider factors other than "art"。Looking at it overall,Selection of the Cannes International Film Festival gradually tends to "mainstream",Even becoming a selection venue for predicting the bet365 Play online games Oscar award,Fans are called Oscar's "springboard"。If this is true,For the French film industry,Perhaps it is an unprecedented disaster。Perhaps,France really needs a new "new wave movement"。
