Evan Bell looked at David Finch sitting in front of him, with short hair close to his head, a neatly trimmed beard, and a pair of seemingly calm but deep eyes, which were almost exactly the same as the photos in the magazine, no Any edge, no sharpness, no publicity, just like a cup of warm boiled water, peaceful, but lacking some bright spots. This is the famous David Fincher. It is hard to imagine that he is the talented director with rich and splendid camera language.

Movies are actually the director’s imagery language, which largely reflects the director’s attitude toward stories, characters, and society. To use the simplest example, let Christopher Nolan shoot a comedy movie, and I'm afraid it will turn into a dark comedy with deep meaning; on the contrary, let the director of "Overnight Belly" and "Forty-year-old virgin" Jia Jia. De Apatow went to shoot a serious drama, and it is estimated that it will be a popcorn work with a strong spoof and entertainment.

The same principle applies to David Fincher. Beneath his gentle and calm appearance, there is also endless fun in the exploration of darkness and horror, that kind of bold, chaotic and violent style, even on the surface. He didn't come out, but he could still find clues in his deep eyes.

Imagine, behind the works such as "The Seven Deadly Sins", "Fight Club", "Thriller Room", and "Zodiac Killer", how could David Fincher, the director, be a mediocre person without edges and corners?

"Evan, 'Blood is coming' has been completed?" Brad Gray was on the right of Evan Bell, and the person directly opposite him was Teddy Bell. Although Evan Bell has never cooperated with Paramount Pictures, the relationship between the two sides is really good.

Brad Gray is currently the youngest CEO of the six major Hollywood studios. The precarious Paramount Pictures is far worse than Disney, so the pressure on Brad Gray's shoulders It's always been big. Luckily for Brad Gray than for Robert Eagle, there was less chaos within Paramount Pictures.

Hearing Brad Gray's voice, Evan Bell took his eyes away from David Fincher and said to Brad Gray with a smile, "Yes, I just finished and returned to New York. This is a very special time. Hard journey."

In fact, this time, the media's attention to "The Blood is Coming" is still a little loose. After all, the town of Marfa is really a remote place, and it is not easy to keep an eye on the trends there. So the news about "The Blood Is Coming" was a little bit behind, and when Evan Bell returned to New York, the news that the crew was done was just released.

Brad Gray was taken aback when he got the call from Evan Bell, and it wasn't just because Evan Bell was actually interested in Paramount Pictures, he didn't expect "The Blood Is Coming" "It's already been done. That's part of the reason. It wasn't confirmed until today when I saw the Bell Brothers at the Organic Street restaurant.

Organic Street Restaurant is located in the lower part of New York City. It is on Organic Street. It is also a restaurant that many entertainers like to come to eat. Coconut milk smoothies and steaks are very famous, and red wine is also a good choice. The location was chosen by Brad Gray, and it can be seen from here that he still attaches great importance to the meeting with Evan Bell today.

"There is always a reward after a hard journey, isn't it?" Brad Gray said with a smile, "What are your plans for this time? There are a lot of people looking forward to your new release."

"You know that my time arrangement is always a little loose, so I really don't have a plan for the future." Evan Bell joked to himself with a smile. To outsiders, Evan Bell's unprofessional work It is indeed very loose. As for whether Evan Bell is really loose, only Teddy Bell and others know. "But right now, I'm not so sure, and if it's possible, I wouldn't mind delaying the release of 'The Blood Will Come' a little bit."

Brad Gray and David Fincher both know that Evan Bell is quietly leading the conversation to The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Brad Gray glanced at David Fincher, as if asking what the director meant.

Although Brad Gray is the CEO of Paramount Pictures, once the project is finalized, it is the director and producer who have the final say. Brad Gray doesn't want to take everything into his own hands like Disney's "tyrant" Michael Inas, so Paramount Pictures isn't far from further chaos. So Brad Gray only exists as a middleman today, but the real decision-making power is not firmly in his hands, and since Katherine Kennedy did not come to the scene, we know that David Fincher is the boss with the decision-making power. .

David Fincher has not spoken today except for the first introduction session. He just looks like he is listening to the conversation between Evan Bell and Brad Gray. Now that he has brought the topic, he seems to also There is no plan to discuss, "Then your fans are going to be disappointed, but they have been looking forward to your new work." David Fincher also politely detoured the topic softly.

Evan Bell didn't mind David Fincher's avoidance at all, he said with a smile, "The production of any work is not so easy, is it? In order not to disappoint the fans, I think I still don't rush to push the works out. Otherwise, they will definitely leave me much faster than the speed of gathering."

In fact, in the entertainment industry, the so-called fans are very simple. If you go high and step down, don't look at the success of Evan Bell's previous works, but if the new work fails, it is estimated that the scolding will not be too small. If all the works have failed, then comments like "box office poison" and "genius fall" will all come to the fore.

So, when Evan Bell said these words, he unexpectedly made David Fincher laugh. His experience with these words is not shallow. Not long ago, "Zodiac Killer" launched by David Fincher was released on the same schedule as "Perfume", but different from the treatment of "Perfume", the comments of "Zodiac Killer" were mostly criticized, while Film critics are even more critical of David Fincher.

David Fincher's directorial career peaked very early, "Alien 3" made him famous, and the subsequent "Seven Deadly Sins", "Mind Game", "Fight Club" were well received. 2001's "Tremble Space" received mixed reviews, but in general it was mostly criticized, while last year's "Zodiac Killer" fell into a trough. Many media can't wait to say that all of David Fincher's talents have been squandered, not to mention that it has been six years since the last work of "Zodiac Killer". any highlights.

Evan Bell's words just stopped in David Fincher's ears, naturally he found it very interesting, he rarely showed a faint smile, "You have this idea at such a young age, it almost makes people think you are It's my age."

Brad Gray chuckled, "Don't look at Evan as young, he is a typical representative of youth and maturity."

Evan Bell answered, "Then should I be happy or depressed? Young and old? No matter how I listen to this sentence, I don't think it's worthy of my happiness."

This time the whole table atmosphere became lively, even David Fincher chuckled softly.

After the meal started, Evan Bell did not rush to bring up the topic of "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", not that he was scared after being blocked by David Fincher, but Evan Bell felt it was unnecessary. in a hurry. In fact, Brad Gray and David Fincher both know what's going on with this meeting today, so no matter what the outcome is, it will be mentioned sooner or later. Why should Evan Bell be in such a hurry?

It was not until the dessert came up that Evan Bell mentioned it again. He asked David Finch directly, "I saw in the newspaper that day, David, you are preparing a new work, this time you The action is much faster than expected." David Fincher almost disappeared after filming "Thriller Space" in 2001, and it was only after six years that "Zodiac Killer" was launched, so Evan Bell only There will be this.

David Fincher lost his previous indifference, and his words became more relaxed, "A good script is uncommon~www.readwn.com~ If you don't grasp it well, if you miss it and regret it, it will be too late." Wei Finch did not continue to talk about this topic, but changed the topic, "Don't you feel this way recently? The last work has just been completed, and this next work is already ready to enter the crew. already."

The news about Evan Bell joining "Batman Prequel: The Dark Knight" is also buzzing recently. This is Warner Bros.'s publicity strategy, and the publicity curtain was opened early. As Evan Bell's first comic book hero movie, although Evan Bell is unlikely to play the role of Batman, it still caused widespread media attention.

David Fincher actually changed the subject again. Evan Bell can already speculate that David Fincher does not agree with today's meeting. Beneath David Fincher's gentle appearance, his rebelliousness was quietly revealing his savagery. Hollywood has never been short of thorns, and David Fincher can be one of them.

However, Evan Bell is not easy to be fooled. After eating two soft nails in a row, Evan Bell decided to open the topic directly. Anyway, it is a question of outcome. Either refuse or agree, it is as simple as that.

When the waiter took away the dessert plates and there were only red wine glasses on the table, Evan Bell raised the topic for the third time and said directly, "So, David, some of your new works belong to my place?"
