King of Hollywood

Chapter 150—The Calm Before Coming

Up to now, the touted American media has risen from 80% to 90%. As for the reason, it has been analyzed before, so it goes without saying. www.YZum sees the novel and comes to Yeyou ~ But it is worth mentioning that Lafferne seized this opportunity well and let the Fox in charge of distribution quickly contact more theaters, so it appeared less than three weeks ago. Get 30 million box office situation.

Basically, the cost is just made back, and except in the United Kingdom, it has not yet been released elsewhere.Perhaps "Smelling a Woman" cannot be as profitable as the "Vulgar Novel" just off the line-before the Thanksgiving The online "Vulgar Fiction" has taken away 110 million US dollars of box office in North America alone.Although it is still being released overseas, the momentum will not be lost to North America.The popularity brought by Adrian makes this movie Captured more profit-profitability is definitely okay, so people must keep a heavy note of Adrian in their hearts.

Although there are other reasons for such a movie to recover costs in less than three weeks, Lafferne's vision and decisive approach are still very worthy of recognition. Even though I have been feeling so many times, Adrian who got the news couldn't help feeling that it was really lucky to be able to find such a talent.

Compared with the unanimous film reviews, the opinions of the fans can be much more varied. Pacino's fans undoubtedly like it very much, and many people repeatedly watch it in the cinema. Adrian's fans are half like and half dislike. Those who like it think that the film tells a good story, moving and motivating; people who don't like think that Adrian has lost his most proud style. Began to compromise with the mainstream. However, with the exception of some more extreme guys-such as obsessed with "Vulgar Fiction" to wait for the characters to live in every move-most people do not hate at least.

Adrian has heard of all this, because the movie was applauded unanimously, the media had to revolve around him, and what happened in the past was really news in comparison with the current situation, so he wondered whether it would be difficult to respond. m read the novel and go to Yeyou ~ But Adrian has never made a positive response, just spoke two words casually through the spokesman, such as "Thank you for your support", "Al's outstanding performance is the key".

So Al Pacino, who was originally a target for entertainment reporters because of the release of "Smell the Woman", was treated more "enthusiastically" by his words. A few days before Thanksgiving When you go out, you will be blinded by countless flashes. Even so, Pacino praised Adrian in his words.

"He is an excellent director, he is always good at mobilizing the atmosphere, and I am happy to cooperate with him, as the" Hollywood Report "said, this is my best role in the past two years," Passino said.

The same thing, Pacino talked about at the beginning of the year, but unfortunately no one thought about it at that time. Now if anyone thinks about it, it will be full of taste. It's a pity that journalists will not feel this way. All they want is news.

However, after Thanksgiving, such reporters are less than half, and the media that has always praised "Smell the Woman" has begun to return to peace, a strange and strange peace, as if a storm is coming ... ...

"Thank you for your hospitality, Godfather, this is a pleasant evening." Standing in front of the villa, Adrian took his girlfriend to say goodbye to his godfather's family.

"I'm glad you can come and spend this wonderful holiday with us, kid," Benedict Haha smiled and hugged his godson. "It would be great if it happened every year."

"This is a good proposal," Adrian said, looking at Claude next to his godfather, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "But I have a better one. Crow's new villa is in Beverly. On the mountain, it's not very far from me, so we can come back together for important festivals every year. "

Claude suddenly showed unexpected eyes, but before he had time to speak, Benedict opened his mouth with a smile: "Of course, neither Bess nor I will object. Do you think, Crow?"

"No problem, Dad, as long as-" Claude gave Adrian a concealed glance, and made a neck pinch gesture under his hand. "Ed remember to call me. Www.YZum read the novel and go to Yeyou ~ "

"I don't think Ed will forget," Beth stepped in at this moment, then smiled and looked at Kate who was holding Adrian. "Of course, remember to bring Kate too, so we will be happier."

"Would you like to come together, Kate?" Adrian then looked at his girlfriend.

"It's a great honor," Kate replied immediately, although with a stubborn smile on her face, she was in a state of absentmind for just a few minutes just now, so her smile seemed a little tense.

Adrian squeezed her hand and said goodbye to the godfather: "Then, let's go back."

"Let your father's driver take you home. You drank a lot before," Crowder said at this time.

"No, I know," Adrian waved. "Just drive a little slower, don't worry."

The car quickly came to the street and drove towards Beverly Hills at night. As he said just now, the speed remains very good, neither too fast nor slow like a snail crawling.

"Do you have any thoughts, Kate?" Adrien asked, glancing at the girl next to him, enjoying the cool breeze blowing from the car window.

"It's nothing." Kate, who came back, smiled apologetically. "Just in a daze?"

"Really?" Adrian asked. "Isn't it because the godfather and Beth made a bad impression on you?"

"How come, they're all very nice people," Kate said with a hint of coyness, "It's only me who left a bad impression, and I was absent-minded several times throughout the night."

Having said that, she suddenly sighed and looked forward to stop speaking.

"I know, in fact, this time, your mind is not absent once or twice, so I ask you this way." Adrian slowed down and turned his head, "Kate, can you tell me what happened? You know, I've always been your best listener, and I'm willing to do anything for you. "

Kate watched him open his mouth and didn't say anything, and Adrian immediately gave her an understanding smile: "It doesn't matter, everyone has something they don't want to say, but if you want to say it, I hope Be your first listener. "

After she smiled and nodded, silence was restored in the carriage, and after dozens of minutes, the two returned to Adrian's villa. As soon as I got out of the car, a cool breeze blew over. Kate in a thin shoulder dress couldn't help rubbing her arms. Adrian next to him took off his jacket and put it on her.

"Thank you." Kate smiled and asked after a second of hesitation: "Yes, Ed, some time ago ... when I called London, you didn't seem to be there."

"Yes, I secretly returned to Los Angeles in those days." Adrian answered straight away without thinking.

"Secretly back to Los Angeles?" Kate opened her eyes, "Why? Why ... didn't you tell me?"

"Oh dear, you know, I was very closely watched by reporters during that time," Adrian explained, "and the work in London is not over, if it is not for Los Angeles, it is very important to deal with, I'm afraid I won't be back until "Smell the Woman" is released. Only Crow and Laffer know that I was in Los Angeles those days. "

"But ... but ..." Kate hesitated not knowing what to say.

"Well, if you're angry about this, can I apologize?" Adrian put his arms around Kate's shoulder, grabbed her hand and looked at her eyes sincerely.

"No, I'm just ..." Kate took his hand, and there was a feeling of warmth on his face before he finished speaking, and Adrian came over to give her a kiss. He followed the hand on his shoulder to the waist, and led her around the vestibule.

Kate wrapped around his neck subconsciously, narrowed his neck and narrowed his eyes as he was brought up. He stopped punching him with a punch: "Ed"

"Are you happy now?" Adrian looked at her with a smile.

"I'd like to know, if you accidentally threw me out just now, and you just happened to have a reporter outside to shoot this scene, what would the newspaper headline for tomorrow be?" Kate said glaringly at him.

"First of all, I will never throw you out," Adrian shook his head and smiled. "Second, there are no reporters outside the villa."

"No? So sure?" Kate looked at the gate in disbelief. "A few days ago, you said that the reporters who surrounded you on the street were like a foul."

"Of course I'm sure they have been quiet for the past few days, waiting for the last moment to come," Adrian also looked at the door with a smile, "You didn't notice that the media have begun these days Are you talking about something else? "

"Looks like ..." Kate tilted her head for a moment, then looked at Adrian, "Why is this?"

"Because, the movie you played in the supporting role is about to be released ~ www.readwn.com ~ Adrian still said in a twist.

"You mean" Howard Manor "? Kate blinked and finally reacted, she was not a fool, and she was in the crew when she was criticized by the British media for shooting" Howard Manor ". One thing couldn't be more clear.

"So, someone is worried about you making a joke, and someone wants to see your joke for a long time." She looked at Adrian narrowly and narrowed her eyes.

"Unfortunately many people are destined to be disappointed. I don't do things that I am not sure about," Adrian shrugged and looked free and easy. "You know, Kate, your performance is excellent. At least in my opinion, second only to Emma? Thompson and Anthony Hopkins. "

"Listening to you, I suddenly wanted to see this movie right away." Kate said with a gaze.

"Soon, let's talk about it in the advanced room." Adrian smiled and hugged her waist and walked into the room again.
