——How to evaluate Forrest Gump's acting skills?

This year Forrest Gump has been shortlisted for the Best Actor Oscar for the second consecutive year. As a person of yellow race, this is undoubtedly quite rare. According to statistics, it is extremely rare even for a white person to be nominated for Best Actor for two consecutive years.

Is his acting really that good?Or is it because of his rare skin color that he has an extra layer of sympathy points in people's selection?

Another factor that has to be mentioned is the rapid development of the Chinese market. It is almost foreseeable that the Chinese market will surpass Japan this year to become the world's second largest box office market.

From this point of view, Forrest Gump has two halos on his body, one is the yellow skin that is rare in Hollywood, and the other is the fast-growing Chinese film market.

Only by removing these factors from him can we really get in touch with the essence, that is, what is his acting skills as an actor?

Now my computer hard drive is full of all Forrest Gump's works, including "Mei Lanfang" and "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate" he performed in China, and another "Youth Pi" which will be finalized in the second half of this year "Fantasy Drifting" is not included.

As Forrest Gump's first debut work, I was amazed by his performance in "Mei Lanfang". This Chinese movie seems to have established the tone of Forrest Gump's performance, that is, whether he is young or old, he can Showing that appropriate temperament, to use an inappropriate metaphor, he is like water in this film, under the indifference, there is a torrent of its own.

This kind of metaphor can be extended to "The Story of Hachiko the Faithful Dog". In this work, he is only a supporting role, but he still behaves very well in line with the setting. You must know that this role is an elderly professor, and he can play in the corresponding environment. It shows the corresponding temperament of the characters in the movie, and this kind of skill is very extraordinary.

The acting skills shown in these two films alone are enough for him to do well in commercial films such as "2012" and "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate". Of course, the Chinese Kung Fu in "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate" still has surprises. Composition - the final box office results of commercial films, these two films are also done very well.

When it comes to commercial films, it is inevitable to mention the topic of box office.Forrest Gump has consistently done well in this regard, and small productions like "Crazy Stupid Love" have also performed well at the box office-note that for small-budget movies, Forrest Gump seems to be particularly good at making big moves.

The two important works in his career, "Beautiful Mistakes" and "Untouchable" are not considered big productions. The former won him a Cannes best actor, while the latter raked in 7 million US dollars, which verified that he alone supported the box office. At the same time, these two films were also successfully nominated for Oscars.

I would like to remind readers and friends that a very interesting point is that Forrest Gump's Oscar nominated works are all produced by foreign companies, which is also quite rare.

If "Life of Pi", co-produced by international director Ang Lee and him, which will be released worldwide in the second half of this year, can once again successfully enter the Oscars next year, then Forrest Gump will be a phenomenal figure, comparable to Leonardo.

Even, three times in a row and three misses, it should be said that he can surpass him.

Yes, as I mean in a joke, I still don't think Forrest Gump can win an Oscar, but even if he can't win an Oscar, he is still a good actor.

And now this best actor from the Far East seems to be about to challenge Warner Bros. for the role of a superhero. I'm looking forward to what kind of brilliance he can shine under Director Nolan.

"This is the sailor you're looking for?"

Gan Jing turned his eyes away from the screen and glanced at Andy who was silently staring at the ant-like pedestrians downstairs.

After receiving the news, Huaxia Special Effects Company had to prepare a little bit, and Andy took the lead in responding in the past two days. Media campaigns have always been an important part of coping with challenges.

"It should be considered a response." Andy said leisurely, "You have to know that as a rare yellow-skinned person, you have always been discussed a lot on the American Internet, but recently there have been a lot of questions about your acting skills. , which is a big problem.”

"Did you do it like this?" Gan Jing flipped through the post that praised him, and found that there were indeed many criticisms below.

"Competition is everywhere, and your skin color intensifies this competition." Andy came over and sat down, crossed his hands on his lap, and smiled, "You rejected CAA's offer, then face this. If you are a It’s okay for white people, but a Chinese American suddenly squeezed in, so we have to face the unanimous CAA.”

"This is a very tacit behavior. I guess they may not even have communicated much, so they applied pressure through various channels." Andy said with a smile, "You may be facing a complete CAA pressure. There is only so much meat, why give it to a Chinese? Superheroes have always been the top priority."

Gan Jing nodded silently. In fact, as mentioned in this post, his films that were shortlisted for Oscars for two consecutive years were all made outside the United States, which can be regarded as a different approach.

"Discrimination in Hollywood is far more serious than you can imagine." Andy was still talking with a smile, "This tacit move by CAA is just another verification."

Gan Jing still nodded, but suddenly felt wrong: "Then why are you smiling all the time?"

Andy held back a three-point smile: "As a man who is about to get married and is about to become a father, I'm in a good mood."

"..."

After a while, Gan Jing suddenly asked: "You said that if I release false news and intend to join CAA, will that break the pressure of this tacit understanding?"

Andy didn't think much about it: "Fake news is not good, CAA will confirm the contract as soon as possible. If you really want to join, then it is really possible. But as a signed artist trained by Warner, you don't have to think about "Batman 3" .”

After all, even though many high-level executives at Warner are hesitant to belong to the role, if A-Gump jumps to CAA, it will undoubtedly close the door to the role, and it is estimated that there will be no auditions.

"Isn't it okay to have an affair with CAA?" Gan Jing asked unwillingly.

Andy looked at A-Gump with a strange look, and asked in doubt: "You don't really want to go there, do you? The big-name resources compete fiercely. If you're not sure, how could they be so stupid?"

Gan Jing let out an "uh", it seems that there have been similar things in China, so he suddenly had such an idea.

"If China's special effects are really as you said, it is indeed a good weight. The special effects production under CAA can't compete with you." Andy thought for a while and reminded, "Oscar in two days, you have to maintain your demeanor , I’m afraid that some pressure will surface on that occasion.”

Gan Jing nodded thoughtfully.
