Unexpectedly, the Cannes red carpet, which originally belonged to the entertainment industry, directly sublimated its value this time because of the performance of an actress.

She is the "Big Devil", Australian actress Cate Blanchett.

And this time she wore a dress in Cannes, which was praised by foreign media as "justice under the skirt".

At the Cannes Film Festival, Cate Blanchett appeared on the red carpet of the premiere of the film "Soaring" in the main competition unit.

Unlike other actresses, her dress actually hides a mystery.

The gown has a contrasting color scheme with a slim fit, black at the front and pink at the back, with a high slit design, and the pink is more like white under the glow of the media lights.

At first glance, the gift itself does not seem to be any different.

But when she stood still to take pictures, Blanchett lifted the hem of her skirt slightly, revealing the green lining of the skirt.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that green, white and black are the colors of the Palestinian flag.

And the biggest ingenuity of this dress is that the whole set of gifts does not have a bright red color, the designer may have thought a long time ago that the dress would be displayed on the red carpet, so the "red carpet" became the source of the color of "red" on the Palestinian flag.

Blanchett's gesture of gently lifting the hem of her skirt was obviously designed, and the whole outfit and her personal identity seemed to be on the red carpet in Cannes, in solidarity with the Palestinian state under war.

When the world's big-name stars are silent, only the "big devil" dares to take a stand against the world's flashing lights.

This operation has attracted a lot of fans for Blanchett, and it has also made all the audiences in the world see the gap between superstars and ordinary stars.

The British newspaper The Guardian said that against the red carpet, Blanchett seemed to be saluting the Palestinian flag.

Although Blanchett did not express her opinion on the matter in the aftermath, her actions themselves have proved her greatness.

What is embarrassing is that among the more than 1,500 official photos of the entire Cannes red carpet, not a single image is of Blanchett lifting the hem of her skirt.

The hypocrisy of Europe and the nobility of Blanchett form the most ironic intertextuality at this moment.

We all know that taking a stand on all sensitive issues is a very risky business.

Especially in foreign countries where the public opinion field is quite extreme and sharp, a few inappropriate remarks, or a few inadvertent behaviors, may be infinitely used, thus affecting the actor's career.

For example, JK Rowling's previous discussion of so-called transgender people is a typical example. In just a few words, almost all the actors of "Harry Potter" have completed the cut with JK Rowling.

But the more this is the case, the more it proves that Blanchett is a star like no other, a humanitarian with great love, responsibility, and a sense of justice, and she dares to show solidarity in public, which is of great significance.

In fact, those who know Blanchett may know that such a rigid thing may only be done by Blanchett, because in her bones, she has this noble personality of asking for the lives of the people and the weak.

Blanchett was born in Australia, and her father was a former U.S. Navy, which somewhat injected justice genes into her character.

In the 90s, she graduated from the Australian National School of Drama and did not make a name for herself until 1997 with "Oscar & Lucinda" and entered the entertainment industry.

In this movie, Blanchett played her acting skills perfectly, which gave her the opportunity to become famous later, because the director of "Elizabeth" Shekar. Kapoor, who loves her role in the film.

So the following year, Blanchett became the heroine of the historical biopic "Elizabeth" Elizabeth I.

Maybe it's because of Kate's own temperament, or maybe because she was born with a queen's aura, she showed Elizabeth from a little white rabbit to a powerful queen, and won the Golden Globe Award.

Director Carl was full of praise for her performance: "The first time I saw Kate, I saw in her face the talent of being a great actor.

The queen of Hollywood + the big devil was born.

Since then, Blanchett's acting career has been like a hanging, frequently appearing in big-budget commercial series and playing important roles.

We are familiar with Galadriel, the elven queen of the magical epic "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy, the legendary Hollywood actress Katharine Hepburn in "The Aviator", and the unruly teacher in "Babel" and "Notes on Scandal".

These roles make Blanchett infinitely close to the Oscar, just waiting for that kick.

This is her transition from queen to big devil, and it is also a key node for Blanchett to really open up the second line of acting as a governor.

In 2007, she played a man, folk superstar Bob Dylan, in "I'm Not There."

The film won Blanchett the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress.

After that, her name resounded all over Hollywood.

When the statement was in full swing, Blanchett chose to stay away from Hollywood and ran a theater in Australia with her husband.

After returning to the screen, she finally relied on "Blue Jasmine" to get the little golden man that she owed her for a long time.

As his fame grew, Blanchett's focus gradually began to extend from the film and television industry to other aspects.

Blanchett was not a rule-runner, and when she was a fame in her early years, she traveled to many poor countries at her own expense, which deeply shocked her and made her determined to start a voice for refugee rights.

After that, Blanchett not only cared about the movie and his own one-third of an acre, but also campaigned for refugees, calling for world peace and stopping the war.

In 2016, Blanchett finally received official recognition when she was appointed UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador.

From his appointment in 2016 to the present day, Blanchett has traveled to countless refugee camps, meeting with refugees who have experienced the trauma of war, plague and regional disputes, learning about their pasts and devoting himself to serving them.

In the past eight years, in addition to making films, Blanchett has devoted most of his energy to his work as a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador.

Long before the Cannes skirt was showcased, Blanchett had more than once spoken out in solidarity with the refugees in Gaza.

Speaking to the European Parliament on November 8, 2023, Blanchett called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Israel, noting that the new Palestinian-Israeli conflict has already claimed thousands of innocent lives.

One of them is quite famous, and has been circulated more than a million times on the Internet:

"I'm not from Israel or Palestine, I'm not a politician, I'm not even an expert, but I'm an eyewitness."

In his statement, Blanchett strongly condemned the human toll of war, violence and, above all, the humanitarian crimes committed by Israel in Gaza.

After the speech, the entire European Parliament burst into applause.

Of course, Blanchett's concern for refugees is not just lip service.

At the beginning of this year, Blanchett used his influence to issue a joint letter with 55 movie stars calling for a "ceasefire", bringing a glimmer of peace to the turbulent situation in the world today.

These movie stars are all big names in Hollywood, including Ismael Fernandez, Julianne Moore, etc.

In the interview, Blanchett also mentioned that as an artist, it is our responsibility to use our voices to convey love and peace and change the world.

Blanchett said so, and did so, unlike many hypocritical stars, her every move was actually carefully considered, including the impact on her career during sensitive periods.

And on the red carpet, this detail of lifting the skirt has actually been carefully designed.

There is also a little-known story.

At the end of 1987, a Jewish truck broke into the "Gaberian refugee camp" in Gaza and deliberately crushed four Palestinians to death. Palestinians in Gaza, furious, threw stones at Jerusalem and began a years-long confrontation with the Israeli authorities.

In the aftermath, Israel banned the appearance of Palestinian flags in public, and anyone who carried them would be arrested.

Out of desperation, Palestinian women can only embroider the colors of the flag on their skirts in order to regain their Palestinian identity - "skirt justice" comes from this, and Blanchett in Cannes just used his own actions to remind people that there is still this history.

When she wears a black, green and white dress and lifts a corner of the skirt, she may have completed spiritual support and intertextuality with the Palestinian women who wore skirts to protest under pressure.

The spirit of a Hollywood superstar who is not short of fame and fortune can do this is impressive.

As one of the American-Palestinian Institute put it: Palestinian women use their bodies to express their will, and this dress reminds me of that expression.

Blanchett's behavior caused a huge sensation at home and abroad.

Foreign netizens said bluntly: love all those who stand up for justice.

We should never forget those who are on the right side of history, those who never stop campaigning for injustice.

Chinese netizens also did not hesitate to praise words:

At this moment, she is a hero, radiant.

The light on her body at this moment illuminates the way to a peaceful world.

As for the Palestinian-Israeli issue, in addition to Blanchett, there are still many humanitarians who speak out in public for Palestine.

French actress Leila Bekti has recorded a video to support children in Gaza.

It is worth mentioning that she wore a watermelon pin, which is considered one of the symbols of the Palestinian resistance because it has the same color as the Palestinian flag.

At the moment when the creator of the Indian film "Everything We Imagine is Light" appeared on the red carpet, we were also attracted by a watermelon bag.

This is also the Indian actress's silent solidarity with Palestine.

The top American actresses Beyoncé and Kim Kardashian have publicly called for a ceasefire on social media several times, and the famous American movie star Angelina Jolie, the French legend Cantona, Benzema, the NBA superstar Irving, and the mainland actress Jing Tian have all practiced and used their own actions or voices to support Palestine.

Maintaining sympathy for the weak is the consensus of all human cultures and the consensus of all human development.

Forgiveness, benevolence and love have always been part of the Chinese culture, and this concept is also the core of the main theme of world peace and development.

We can see the tragedy in Gaza, and of course, we can see stars like Blanchett who really shine with humanity.

The world is not black and white, there must always be someone who shouts for the weak and speaks for the bullied.

These things have happened to us before, so when we see them now, we feel the same way.

I hope that there will be more and more stars like Blanchett, end the war as soon as possible, and return to peace as soon as possible.

Finally, perhaps we should also be fortunate to be born in China, how happy.
