MTL - Best Actor-v3 Chapter 66 nice start
As the three most famous Mexican directors in Hollywood, like the British gang, the Australian gang and the Canadian gang, they come together to support each other, so Guillermo del Toro is preparing for "Pan God" Alfonso Cuaron was hired as the producer for Labyrinth, and Inarido tentatively mentioned it to Sean after knowing their predicament.
At that time, Sean had not yet faced the lawsuit and was preparing for "Tower of Babel". After hearing about the situation, although he did not have much impression of the movie "Pan's Labyrinth", But knowing the name of Mexico's Sanjie, otherwise he would not have thought about winning Inarido.
There are very few Mexican directors who have achieved their level.
So, after Sean clearly promised not to interfere with the shooting, and everything would be in charge of Toro, the other party accepted his investment - of course, the distribution rights are all in Samsara Pictures. Then after several months of filming in Madrid and several months of post-production in Los Angeles, it was finally in time for this year's Cannes Film Festival.
After chatting a few more words, Sean left first and greeted Galen and the others into the theater. Many movies are used to shooting, and the value is not as high as imagined. Maintain a good relationship, invest a few money from time to time, as long as you can make it back, even if the profit is small, it doesn't matter, until Sean finds that there is a higher value, and he can think of it, he directed a movie directed by them.
He went straight to his own seat in the first few rows, Emma was already sitting there, and was chatting perfunctorily with a man sitting next to her.
Sean frowned slightly, and then walked over calmly: "How many times have I told you, Emma, although I have the right position and angle of view, but It's my place too!"
Emma was stunned for two seconds, and immediately stood up: "Sorry, I sat down when I saw the seat, and didn't pay attention to who it was."
As she spoke, she stood up and moved away, Sean sat down, and without waiting for the man next to him to speak, he opened his mouth and said: "What about the schedule? How many parties are there tonight? What else? Someone to meet? What about the production company?"
"The schedule has not changed for the time being, but there may be some changes after the movie ends. There is only one party. Do you want to attend a few more? As for the people you want to meet, including the production company, Nothing has changed... Oh, by the way, Harvey wants you to call him back after the movie." Emma said quickly.
"Fine, I see." Sean nodded with satisfaction, "Remember what I said? You're a great assistant, Emma—and anything else Did you notice?"
"Well, let me think about it..." Emma looked thoughtful.
The man next to him tried to say something several times, but every time he was interrupted by Sean's rapid speech, and he never looked at him, as if he didn't exist . Over time, the man also saw it, smiled bitterly, and then walked away a little gloomy.
"Finally gone, what a nasty fly." Although Emma has been answering Sean's questions, she has always paid attention to the guy, and she was relieved after seeing him get out.
Then she bumped Sean with her elbow: "Thanks."
"Don't be so polite, you are my assistant, it's only natural for a boss to solve some minor troubles for his assistant." Sean laughed, but Emma turned it over a little unappreciatively Roll your eyes.
"By the way, who is that guy?" Sean immediately changed the subject.
"A producer of a film company, I don't know if it's French or Italian, or any other country, anyway, English is terrible," Emma shrugged, "He asked me if I was interested in being an actor , and said a lot of flowers that I am very suitable for being an actor, like a fly buzzing constantly in my ear."
"Don't you want to be an actor?" Sean asked with interest.
Emma squinted her eyes and looked at him when she heard the words, then suddenly turned her head and called to Galen, who was two positions away from her, "Hey, Galen, how about we change positions? "
"No problem." Galen stood up without thinking, so that Sean didn't even have a chance to speak.
But another person stood up immediately: "Why don't you change with me."
"Okay." Emma didn't mind either, and immediately got up and switched places with Frederick.
"You guys colluded, right?" Sean exclaimed in dissatisfaction.
Unfortunately, they were all joking but didn't answer, but Frederick grabbed his arm: "Hey, Sean, can we talk?"
"What script do you want to recommend to me? Or arrange for a show?" The mood is not very good, and the tone is still not very good.
"No no no, of course not, it's not that I don't know that you are still in the "Deadly Magic" crew, and you are going to rest in the second half of the year," the agent waved his hand somewhat exaggeratedly, " Of course, after the release of Babel, you still have to make time to be on the show."
"What are you trying to say?" Sean asked with a sigh.
"I mean," Frederick chuckled, "have you considered releasing a single or two?"
Sean was stunned, then narrowed his eyes: "What do you mean, or the music studio?"
"Both," the agent shrugged, but didn't hide it, "You know, 'BlurredLines' has a very good number of downloads and the MV is quite popular, so why don't you release two more songs? What about singles? I'm not asking you to make music your main business, but you have developed in one more area, and it's still a good development, and it will help you build your reputation, isn't it?"
Sean raised his eyebrows, Frederick, as the only one who knew his secret, naturally knew something about his ultimate goal, although he kept it in his heart and didn't fully say it .
But before he could continue to speak, the auditorium went dark. As the guests and the audience sat down, the movie was about to start showing. In that case, let's talk about it later, anyway, it's time.
The opening picture is very simple, extremely simple, with no superfluous effect at all. The yellowish and grayish picture fully shows the environment of a poor Moroccan family.
And then it all started, the father took a shotgun given by a friend and gave it to his two teenage sons to use to prevent the wolves from eating the sheep while grazing. But the two teenagers were somewhat restless and liked to shoot everywhere with guns. One said that the gun's range was too short to hit wolves, while the other thought the gun was very reliable.
The two couldn't argue, and tried to fix things a few times, and then saw a large bus approaching on the desolate road, so one of the end guns was aimed and fired.
The gun went off, but the bus didn't stop, so the one who shot shrugged to his brother, meaning, look, missed. Then, the bus stopped, the two brothers froze for a few seconds, exchanged glances, and hurriedly started to run away.
This is the first paragraph, then the second paragraph, in the American and Mexican story, Inari uses one more clever cut to move the camera while the brothers run away On the little boy who is running in the American home, the audience's attention is simply drawn from the northern end of Africa to the southern end of North America.
And the following short story is that the Mexican nanny of an American family receives a call from the owner, they have an accident and can't go home on time, so she needs to continue to take care of the two children . But the nanny wanted to go back to Mexico to attend her nephew's wedding, and she had to go, so she got into trouble. After several times of asking for help to no avail, she was overwhelmed, and she simply took her two children to Mexico and waited for the wedding. Send them back.
The second paragraph ends here, the third paragraph returns to Monaco, and Sean and Kate officially appear. To be honest, after seeing his appearance on the screen, Sean was stunned for at least a few seconds. After all, although he had played an older character, he had a beard and eye bags like in the movie. There are wrinkles everywhere, but it is the first time that he is very old, so after his appearance, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw it himself.
Then, Sean quickly glanced around, some people were paying attention, some people were whispering, some people were absent-minded. He couldn't help sighing in his heart. It was so easy to see the image on the big screen that even he was stunned. When filming, he also felt that he had a good grasp of the role. Now that the movie is released, he naturally hopes to hear some praise. And sure, I didn't expect a lot of them to be seen.
Fortunately, after a few minutes, the situation improved. With a bang, a crack appeared in the window of the bus, and Kate, who was resting on it, also trembled. .
Sean, who noticed something was wrong, immediately hugged her to check, and her shoulders were bleeding, and there was an obvious hole on the collarbone, which was combined with the first paragraph before, two A child's bullet just hit the American woman in the car.
The story thus entered a climax, and the audience's attention was naturally attracted to the past, wanting to know what would happen next, and it happened that Sean played well in this section, bringing a middle-aged The man's confusion of Zhang Huang was interpreted very realistically. Although no one around made an exaggerated reaction such as surprise, many people who were inattentive before were looking at the screen.
Unfortunately, the picture changed at this time, and it changed to the Japanese side. Rinko Kikuchi, who played the deaf-mute woman, was playing volleyball. As far as Sean could see, several people frowned, obviously I don't really like this way of expressing a sudden change in the story line. But there are also some who have become more serious and seem to have been attracted, and it is not entirely repulsive to see this expression.
However, Sean felt that if Inarido's editing order could be adjusted a little, maybe there would be fewer people who didn't like it.
