卡特•布兰切特出席2017年戛纳电影节红毯(图片: 美联社) From ‘heelgate’ to the Palm Dog to the ‘Dad bod’ – it’s been a dizzying 12 days. Here are nine lessons from the film festival as it draws to a close. 从“高跟鞋门”到“金棕榈狗狗奖” 1. Cannes has a dirty underbelly 1.戛纳也有软肋 It was Somerset Maugham who said the French Riviera is “a sunny place for shady people” – and looking around at all the ‘models’ in the hotel lobbies and the men in dark sunglasses who seemed to know them, I knew what he meant. Behind the festival’s shiny facade, there is an unseemly side – and beneath the azure waters, a polluted mess. The French diver and environmentalist Laurent Lombard’s video of the Cannes seabed strewn with waste and debris went viral before the festival began. We were assured there was no danger to swimmers, and the mayor had it cleaned up according to the Daily Mail – but the Med had certainly lost some of its sparkle. 萨默塞特•毛姆 2. The ‘Dad bod’ is so hot right now 2.“老爹身材”受热捧 As the stars’ private jets swooped in, the internet was going mad for ‘the Dad bod’; the slightly flabby male physique was trending and there were plenty of examples on screen. Deborah Cole of AFP noted a “sweating, panting and shirtless” Gerard Depardieu in Valley of Love and a flash of Joaquin Phoenix’s “tubby tummy” in Woody Allen’s Irrational Man. When Colin Farrell strode the red carpet for the premiere of The Lobster, he looked his usual trim self – but in the film he is distinctly paunchy. To add some girth for the role of a lonely singleton in Yorgos Lanthimos’ absurdist black comedy, Farrell went on a massively calorific diet that included drinking melted ice cream, he told the Hollywood Reporter. Eating “two cheeseburgers, fries and Coca-Colas, and two slices of chocolate cake at 10am is not that fun,” he said. “And I love cheese¬burgers." |
