King of Hollywood
Chapter 35: Promotion of new movies
As the plot continued to develop, the audience finally saw the basic clues and framework. The actor Leonard not only lost his wife because of the rapist, but also suffered from short-term amnesia—the director purposely used a barmaid here. The spitting spit into the jug to make a note, did it arouse the laughter of the audience-the male protagonist in the rest of the disaster uses the photo to help himself remember, and began to tirelessly search for the **** who wanted to serve his wife revenge.
Only, the director told the story in parallel and backward. Although the structure is very novel, it may be unavoidable, and you may miss some clues if you don't pay attention. For example, the actor is obviously related to Teddy, who was shot by him in the beginning, and he is also weird when explaining his symptoms by telling the previous person who also had a transient amnesia and killed his wife. It's a pity that there are too many clues and entanglement, and the plot develops quickly, making it difficult for people to understand.
But because of this, this movie looks very attractive. If it is not in the cinema, someone may jump up and ask to replay a certain segment.
Finally, the movie came to the end, everything has been revealed, even if there are many clues left by the audience, they still understand the ending. Teddy was a police officer. He had helped Leonard find the criminal who raped his wife. Leonard had already avenged him for this, but he forgot. Teddy then used him to kill a drug dealer and swallow $ 200,000, and Leonard, who knew all this, no longer trusted him, and took a picture of him stating that he should not be fooled again. In the end, due to various factors, Leonard killed Teddy as the murderer of his wife, so there is an opening scene, but it is unknown whether Leonard will forget it.
As the subtitles were played, the lights turned on. However, there was no applause in the theater, only intermittent discussions. Although I have roughly understood what this story is, many places do not understand it once. For example, does the person who suffered from transient amnesia in Leonard ’s mouth really have someone or is it only he imagined? Was his wife killed by the **** or was he himself? The audience exchanged their views, forgetting that the movie was over.
"It looks like this movie failed, but there was no applause." Adrian sitting in the special seat behind him said with a sigh, "I have to say, Dan, you really let me down."
"Me?" Sitting at Lafferne Dennis somehow looked at Adrian.
"Yes, you are an actor, shouldn't you take some responsibility?" Adrian looked seriously.
"This ..." Dennis looked depressed, and then sighed, "Kate and Joe are also actors."
"That's different," Adrian waved, "you have the most drama."
Kate, who was sitting next to him, finally couldn't hold back, and chuckled out: "Well, Ed, stop playing tricks on Dan, haven't you heard their discussion? Maybe applause will ring immediately. "
As soon as the voice fell, the applause rang. At first there was only one person. Most of them joined in a few seconds later, just because there was a lot of applause when discussing the plot of the movie, but the applause was a little bit. Sparse.
怎么 样 "How's it?" Kate raised her chest with pride.
"Very good, very good." Adrian Haha smiled and kissed her pretty face.
Joe Pantoriano, who saw these in his eyes, patted Dennis on the shoulder and said in a serious tone: "Let's go, Dan, this is where they flirt."
A few of the crew members around him suddenly laughed lightly, Kate was a little embarrassed to stop his head from coughing.
"Okay, guys, it's almost there, we should leave." Seeing that the audience has started to go out in twos and threes, Adrian stood up and greeted everyone to go back, but he was only a few people as soon as he reached the aisle Stopped.
"Hello, Mr. Adrian, I'm John Bateson of the Los Angeles Evening News. May I ask you a few questions?" The first man with brown hair and a fair face said so.
"Mr. Adrian, I'm a reporter for the Eastern Republic. Can you talk about your movie?" The man behind Bateson stretched his hands over. He had a striking ear and was a Frenchman. Because he uses French.
There are still a few people in the back, who are introducing themselves in their native language or English with a strange accent. Adrian nodded as he narrowed his eyes and looked at La Verne behind him. La Verne shrugged slightly. .
Is it a tabloid? Okay, it doesn't matter. Adrian raised his hand with a smile: "Thank you for your support. If you have any questions, please ask, of course, please don't be too tricky. I think you definitely don't want me to say anything like that."
Although the Berlin Film Festival is mainly a political film, as one of the most influential film festivals in the world, there are still many outstanding films to come to participate, such as the one that took the best at the 64th Oscar at the same time Movie, Best Actor, Silent Lamb. And like Dennis, Anthony Hopkins and Judy Foster as the main actors also attended the Berlin Film Festival.
Although Adrian, the director and producer of "Big Smoke Guns", has received a lot of attention in the past few months, he is still a newcomer after all, and the value of the director's news is always in the eyes of reporters. Those big stars, so the well-known media went around those more well-known directors and big stars.
Alas, it doesn't matter, there is always better than nothing. A few months ago, in Venice, even after the "Big Smoke Gun" was well received, no reporter came to visit him-although taking Kate to play around is also one of the reasons.
Adrian's cooperative attitude has won the favor of many people. The first question was the French reporter: "I want to know, what is the purpose of your editing, Mr. Adrian?"
“Of course it ’s storytelling. The editing methods that are surprising or surprising or confusing are actually for good storytelling.” Adrian answered with a smile, but inevitably scolded an idiot in his heart, although it is good to have attention Things, but if people are stupid, there is no way, tabloid is really just tabloid.
"This is an amazing movie, can I know who killed Leonard's wife?" This time it was John Bateson of the Los Angeles Evening News.
Another ... Adrian shrugged: "I'm sorry, I can't say this directly, I can only say that all the clues are in the movie. If you still have questions or there is something wrong, you might as well watch it again in the theater. "
Other tabloid reporters, like them, always ask questions around the plot, which makes Adrian depressed. But think about it right, the tabloids are chasing the lace news that can be very eye-catching. They will come to visit him. Except for the chance, the suspense of the movie is too attractive. From this point ... it's not bad.
Because they were chatting and walking outside, a group of people quickly came outside the theater, and Adrian immediately gave Ravenn a look. Mr. Lafferne nodded knowingly, and suddenly exclaimed, "Everyone, if you are not satisfied, ask Mr. Dennis Knight, who is the first protagonist in the whole movie."
The reporters were embarrassed and immediately surrounded Dennis. Sure enough, in the eyes of reporters, especially tabloid entertainment reporters, the value of actors is still much greater than that of directors. Dennis was obviously flattered. Although there were only 7 or 8 reporters around and all were tabloid reporters, when did he get such treatment? Even after appearing in a movie that has a good reputation at the box office. But he calmed down and coped with a smile, and saw that he liked the scene.
Seeing that the attention of the reporters was attracted to Dennis, Adrian dragged Kate quietly away. I believe that with Dennis's ability and Lavern and Pantoriano to mention, there will be no problem.
"Really, I want to stay there and wait for them to ask me a few questions?" After walking across two streets and seeing that the reporters couldn't find them, Kate complained suddenly, but watched it crescent. Her eyes and a playful expression knew what she was thinking.
好 "Well, then, star, Miss Kate Beckinsale, how do you feel about the role you played this time?" Adrian asked with a smile.
嗯 "Hmm ..." Kate tilted her head and thought for a moment, her face suddenly collapsed, "I feel ... not so good."
"Why?" Adrian was a little surprised.
"Think about it. My first character is a guy who smokes marijuana all day and **** consciously, without a single line of words; and my second character is full of swear words and a drug dealer who has been killed. Boyfriend ... No one is normal, "Kate said with a sigh." Especially the makeup in "Memory Fragments" ... It's too ugly. I dare not see it on the screen. It's strange. I definitely didn't think it was ugly on the set ... "
Adrian couldn't help but laughed: "Okay ~ www.readwn.com ~ I'll wait for you, I'll see if there are any romantic comedies you can star in. They are **** and beautifully dressed. Fascinated by it. "
Kate just wanted to say something good, but saw Adrian's ridiculous look and swallowed it back.
"What ... isn't that right?" Kate asked with some nags.
"No, it's nothing." Adrian sighed. "Frankly, you performed well in Fragment of Memory, better than Dan, second only to Joe."
This is really the truth, although Denis did a good job, makeup and acting basically met Adrian's requirements, but because of being too young, he did not do well in some small details. The average audience may not notice it, but Adrian, who has seen countless times while editing, is well aware of this. Fortunately, there are wonderful enough stories to make up for this.
Although Kate is also young, even a little too young, once she is not the same as Dennis, the camera runs through the film; second, the younger she is, the more aura, the more malleable, plus a person who is familiar with movies Adrian, who can no longer be familiar with, slightly modified the script and instructed it from the side, and specially asked the makeup artist to hide her beauty by hiding her ugly disguise than the original, so she played very well.
(I watched "Girls" yesterday, full screen CG, the translation of "Sweet Doudou" and "Big money" is also thundering. But aside from this, this story is actually very sad, but most of them are sad. People's attention has been focused on CG. But here also shows how important the storytelling method is to the director. Schneider is still a lot worse than Nolan. This film could have been comparable to "Dream of a Dream". Pity.)
