China's stylish film "Black Coal, Thin Ice" by Diao Yinan about a washed up ex-cop investigating a series of grisly murders won the Berlin film festival's Golden Bear top prize on Saturday.
"It's really hard to believe that this dream has come true which didn't come true for such a long time," Diao said as he accepted the trophy, fighting back tears. The picture is set in the late 1990s in northern China and its murder mystery plot is told through enigmatic flashbacks.
The movie also won the best actor award Saturday for Liao Fan's role as a former policeman turned detective investigating a series of killings.
"Yesterday was Valentine's Day and also the beginning of spring in China and the whole of Berlin was in love. Yesterday was also my 40th birthday," Liao said. "I think this was the most wonderful present you could give me."
Wes Anderson's historical caper "The Grand Budapest Hotel,'' offering a nostalgic look back at a Europe lost to war claimed the jury grand prize, which comes with a runner-up Silver Bear.
The picture starring Ralph Fiennes had opened the Berlinale on February 6. Texas filmmaker Richard Linklater, whose innovative coming-of-age drama "Boyhood" was 12 years in the making and a critical and audience hit at the festival, won best director.
"I accept it on behalf of the more than 400 people who worked on my movie," said Linklater, clutching the trophy.
"This says best director but I want to think of it as best ensemble."
Haru Kuroki took home the best actress gong for her role as a discreet housemaid in the Japanese production "The Little House" from veteran director Yoji Yamada, a film about a covert love affair set in wartime Tokyo.
The awards were decided by an eight-person jury headed by American director and producer James Schamus ("Brokeback Mountain") after a festival lasting 11 days in which some 400 films were screened, 23 of them in the competition
category.
"Black Coal, Thin Ice" divided audiences in Berlin but won critical praise. It is Diao's third feature film.
【新闻快讯】
《白日焰火》！廖凡！第64届柏林电影节于当地时间2月15日晚落下帷幕，中国电影《白日焰火》成为最大赢家，拿下最佳影片金熊奖及最佳男演员奖，这是第五部获得金熊奖的中国电影，也是中国演员第一次获得柏林影帝。
娄烨导演的《推拿》则获得最佳艺术贡献奖(摄影)。影后由日本女演员黑木华获得，开幕片《布达佩斯大饭店》获评审团大奖。此前场刊评分最高、媒体口碑最好的《少年时代》获最佳导演，一对德国兄妹联手编剧、执导的作品《耶稣受难像》获最佳编剧奖。
中国导演刁亦男的作品《白日焰火》拿下金熊奖可谓是本届电影节的最大惊喜。导演刁亦男上台领奖时表示“难以置信。看来这个梦是一直醒不了了。”《白日焰火》讲述了一个犯罪爱情故事，剧情层层剥茧、一波三折，廖凡饰演的警察和桂纶镁饰演的干洗店女工在虚情假意的碰撞中擦出火花，可以说是一个故事商业、手法文艺的作品。
《白日焰火》是继李安的《喜宴》与谢飞的《香魂女》、张艺谋的《红高粱》、王全安的《图雅的婚事》后，第五部擒下金熊的中国影片。导演刁亦男曾活跃于先锋戏剧及影视剧剧本创作，前作《制服》和《夜车》都是小成本独立电影，他的名字对于大多数人来说都比较陌生。 刁亦男导演称《白日焰火》原本是一个不折不扣的文艺片，经过8年的酝酿，终于找到了商业与艺术结合的最佳形式。他也希望中国电影能越来越开放和包容，让导演能拿得到资金，同时也能自由创作。
而在《白日焰火》中饰演潦倒警察的廖凡，凭借对角色的准确把握拿下最佳男演员奖，廖凡得知获奖后十分激动，他说：“我离开北京到这里来之前，我和我妈说，如果我拿不到这个奖我就不回来了。昨天是元宵节，也是情人节，还是我40岁的生日，我想这是给我最好的生日礼物。”他在台上也感谢了电影中的搭档桂纶镁，称她“让寒冷的冬天变得温暖”。
第二篇：《白日焰火》夺柏林电影节金熊奖 廖凡加冕影帝
《白日焰火》的男主角廖凡也凭借此片的成功，获得柏林电影节影帝殊荣。
新科影帝廖凡表示，昨天是自己的40岁生日，这个奖项是最好的生日礼物。而导演刁亦男则认为，这份荣誉属于大家，属于电影，属于一切。
金熊奖是柏林国际电影节的最高荣誉，与金狮奖、金棕榈奖并称为电影节三大最高荣誉象征。这个奖项从19xx年开始颁发。主要授予最佳故事片、纪录片、科教片、美术片等。
本届柏林国际电影节于2月6日至16日举行，共有23部电影入围主竞赛单元，包括《白日焰火》、《无人区》、《推拿》等20部作品参与竞争金熊奖。
《白日焰火》是一部犯罪爱情影片，讲述了一起由离奇碎尸案引发的桂纶镁、廖凡、王学兵三人的爱情救赎故事。
