Hollywood starts with a broker
#65 - Guaranteed R rating
Because Quentin Tarantino no longer works at the video store, but has stayed at Dawn Pictures, having participated in the filming of "Phone Booth", and is now joining the "Boyz n the Hood" project!
In the evening, at a nightclub on Sunset Boulevard in East Hollywood, Quentin Tarantino is embracing two flamboyantly dressed and sexy women.
Aaron sat on the sofa and curled his lip. When the other party walked over, he couldn't help but complain: "Who is more important to you, God or prostitutes?"
Quentin Tarantino laughed twice, "They are my source of inspiration!"
The tens of thousands of dollars earned from selling the "True Romance" script were almost all spent on call girls.
"Alright, CAA will take your 'Natural Born Killers' script to a few producers or directors to take a look at;"
"In my opinion, there's no big problem. This script has a lot of merit!"
Aaron said, taking a sip of wine, "Do you have any new ideas?"
Quentin Tarantino nodded, "I do have some, but they are not complete yet. I still need time to perfect them, but for now, the focus is still on the 'Boyz n the Hood' project;"
"After accumulating enough experience, I want to direct a movie myself."
Immediately, Quentin Tarantino stared straight at Aaron Anderson, "You said you would support me in directing a movie, you can't go back on your word!"
"Don't worry, Dawn Pictures will support you."
"Roar," suddenly, the atmosphere in the nightclub directly surged, and there was a burst of shouts.
"Which star is here again?" Aaron had a bland expression. It was so noisy, there must be a celebrity entering the store.
Quentin Tarantino listened and looked in the direction of the sound, a very tall black figure, "It seems to be Ervin Johnson of the Lakers!"
"Magic" Johnson?
Aaron also stood up, but in his heart, he was thinking about running away quickly. Isn't this guy about to test positive for AIDS?
"He's also a regular at nightclubs. The Lakers were eliminated from the playoffs earlier this year. I've also run into him at other nightclubs before!"
Quentin Tarantino also explained in a low voice.
Last season, the Lakers lost to the Pistons in the Eastern Conference in the Finals, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar retired;
This year, the Lakers lost to the Suns in the second round of the playoffs and went home, and the result was that the Pistons won the NBA championship for two consecutive years.
Aaron shook his head, he didn't care about these things anyway, "Alright, I'll leave first, you also have to restrain yourself a bit;"
"'Boyz n the Hood' is about to start filming, you should spend more time on the movie!"
Quentin Tarantino's demand for call girls is really fierce enough.
When leaving the nightclub, Aaron also deliberately glanced at Ervin Johnson's location. He heard that this guy had slept with more than 2,000 women, and he didn't know if it was true?
As the preparation for "Boyz n the Hood" progressed, director John Singleton, and actors Cuba Gooding Jr., Ice Cube, Morris Chestnut, and Laurence Fishburne joined the crew!
In a neighborhood in South Central Los Angeles, John Singleton and Aaron stood on a second-floor balcony, pointing to several nearby streets, "These neighborhoods have seen a lot of gang fights in the past few decades;"
"The Bloods and Crips, black gangs, have the most intense and brutal struggles, involving drug manufacturing, drug trafficking, gambling, robbery, and murder, etc.;"
"Black people born in these places have grown up in this environment since they were young, and violence is innate!"
Aaron took a puff of his cigarette, "So, besides expressing the chaotic reality of the black community in the script, the most important thing is that you want to guide the growth of black teenagers."
"That's right, broken families, racial discrimination, community crime, and teenage parents are all important reasons for the chaos in the black community."
As one of the few highly intelligent black people, John Singleton knows the problems that black people face in their growth, especially in this country with severe racial discrimination.
"In the script, are you sure you don't want to add some bad behavior from white police officers?"
The white police officers in John Singleton's play are polite and professional, while the black police officers are hostile and show self-loathing!
John Singleton shook his head, "Many black people who have achieved success now show disgust for their own skin;"
"They all hope to live in white communities and live according to the white way of life. Their attitude towards other black people is even worse!"
Aaron could understand it. It's like Michael Jackson now. Because of his skin, he is resisted by many black people, who say he betrayed his race.
"However, there can't be too many violent scenes in 'Boyz n the Hood', otherwise, the movie won't get an R rating!"
Aaron is not doing it for any responsibility, but just to make money.
Nothing wrong, one first, one issue, one content, one at a time!
"Maybe you don't know, recently there was a German-American co-production 'Henry \u0026 June', which was adapted from the novel of the same name by female writer Anaïs Nin. There are some very explicit erotic scenes and homosexual scenes in it, which were rated X by the MPAA;"
"However, after the film company appealed, the MPAA considered the artistic value of 'Henry \u0026 June' and the difference from purely sensational erotic films;"
"So the MPAA made an exception and modified the original criteria of the film rating system, adding an NC – 17 rating, not suitable for viewing by those 17 and under;"
"This 'Henry \u0026 June', which is about to be released, has become the first NC – 17 rated work in the United States."
Aaron said, looking at John Singleton, "You should understand what I mean, 'Boyz n the Hood' cannot become the second NC – 17 rated film;"
"However, the MPAA's tolerance for violence is higher than for eroticism, so you don't have to be too timid. Just make sure 'Boyz n the Hood' can get an R rating!"
John Singleton nodded seriously, "Although my 'Boyz n the Hood' is a realistic gangster film;"
"But I mainly want to improve the youth growth problems in the black community through movies, and I won't beautify or praise violence;"
"I also hope that the movie can enter more theaters and be appreciated by more people, arousing everyone's care for the growth of teenagers in the black community!"
"That's good," Aaron was relieved. This kind of movie needs intention to have box office success.
"Also, you don't have to worry about other things. I have already discussed the film's distribution with Sony Columbia. If there are no accidents, Columbia will arrange for 'Boyz n the Hood' to be released in March next year!"
"March, no problem, the filming of 'Boyz n the Hood' only takes about two months. I will spend another two months editing the film, and the subsequent sound effects and soundtrack can be done at the same time."
There are black hip-hop singers everywhere here, will there be a lack of soundtracks?
