MTL - Once Upon a Time In Hollywood-Chapter 4 It seems... the car overturned?
Chapter 4 seems to be... overturned?
Because Roland just had the mentality of going through the motions and playing casually, he just wanted to prove to the Olsen couple how normal Roland, who had changed his soul, was; With any hope, he didn't ask this enthusiastic couple about anything related to it.
TV show or movie?
How old was the character he was auditioning for?
What type of role is he auditioning for?
He didn't know the basic elements that he needed to know before the audition.
And he didn't think to ask.
The Olsen sisters are indeed the youngest daughters of the American people, but their popularity will not be fully realized.
No matter how guilty the Olsen couples are, those tall crews are unlikely to throw an olive branch to Roland who "knows nothing" because of the existence of the Olsen sisters.
What's more, it was the couple's original intention to pull Roland, who had fallen into autism, from the shadow of losing his parents.
So, in Roland's view, finding a crew at random and distracting the original owner with two insignificant characters may be the key to the couple's ability to quickly find the role quota.
Of course, there is another possibility.
That is the crew that the Olsen couple found, which is the "Full House" where the Olsen sisters are now.
After all, communicating with your own people is the most time-saving and labor-saving way.
However-
When the car drove into Universal Studios, Roland, who wanted to get out of the car with the big team, was stopped by David.
"Roland, what are you doing getting out of the car?"
Roland was stunned when he asked this question.
You ask me why I got out of the car?
Didn't you call me out to audition?
"Uncle David? I don't need to get out of the car?" At this moment, Roland was a little confused. He pointed to the large army that was fading away, and asked suspiciously: "But James and the others have already followed..."
According to the laws of America, children under the age of twelve must be supervised at all times to avoid the danger caused by the child's ignorance. Children under the age of twelve cannot be left alone at home. After a warm-hearted neighbor reports, not only the child will be taken away by the welfare agency, but even the parents will be prosecuted by the police.
Because Ashley and Mary were filming today, it was impossible for Garnettie to stay at home to look after James, and Roland accepted David's invitation, so James and Elizabeth, who were unrelated, were dragged out together.
"James used to be normal."
"Because he followed Ganetti today."
"And you are different!"
"You follow me today."
"Our goal is not the current Universal Studios."
What?
Roland felt that he might have heard wrong.
Target is not in Universal Studios?
Where is that?
Roland was a little strange.
In his memory, the reason why the Olsen sisters stepped into the showbiz has nothing to do with their parents.
Because of their good family background, the Olsen couple did not need to drive their children out to earn money.
The reason why they were selected by the crew, then filmed, and finally became famous was entirely because Garnett happened to meet someone in the circle when he took the Olsen sisters to a friend's house to play. At that time, the crew of "Full House" A girl under the age of one was needed, so the Olsen sisters were chosen by accident under the recommendation of insiders.
Filming was an accident, and becoming famous was also an accident.
What's more, if the Olsen couple were really short of money, it would be impossible to sign a contract with the crew in the name of their sister Ashley.
That's right, because they were afraid that the children would get tired, the Olsen sisters always came in rotation when they were filming.
Whenever a little tired, Garnetty will switch to another one.
Many people may think that this is squeezing children.
But in fact, two people are filming, but they get paid by one person.
As for the situation where two people appear on camera at the same time?
That won't appear until after the Olsen couple divorces.
In this mixed situation of Buddhism, this couple actually found another crew because of themselves?
This situation surprised Roland.
However, this also gave him a good understanding of the relationship between the Olsen couple and the old Roland couple.
‘It seems that if they want to ask for professional knowledge, they have a 90% chance and will help themselves. '
Of course, although he expressed doubts about the Olsen couple's supernatural powers, Roland still didn't ask about the specific content.
Get in the car, fasten your seat belt, and hand everything over to David.
And when he swayed with the car, he witnessed David drive the car to Burbank and park it on Fox's set.
It was only then that he discovered that things might have exceeded his expectations.
Fox’s studio is huge, and the reception hall where people come and go is full of people.
The hurried crowd passed him by, and no one paid special attention to Roland.
Although he is just a child, children are too common here.
Especially now, there are dozens of families in the huge reception hall.
Looking at the little guys who were similar to his own age, Roland even had the illusion of returning to school.
'Here? Is it a set? '
Taking advantage of the gap between David and the staff to communicate and check the registration information, Roland looked around.
The gathering of people's heads directly reminded him of the scene when he went to the scenic spot to line up during the holidays in his previous life.
After a short count, including himself, there were fifty children in total.
And this number made him feel what it means to have a headache.
‘Could it be——I made a wrong prediction? '
Recalling the coquettish analysis he had just conducted before answering, Roland felt that something was wrong.
What kind of crew is using so many children? Is this a choir, or a kindergarten?
If so many children were not needed, what kind of role should it be to attract so many parents' competition?
In his previous life, when he switched careers to be an executive producer, he also cooperated with the casting director in recruitment.
At the beginning, it was pretty good if an insignificant background role could attract more than a dozen people. Even if this is Los Angeles, the place with the most developed entertainment industry in the world, so many children competing for a role is too terrifying Bar?
After waiting for a while, when David came over with the completed form, Roland finally couldn't help it.
"Uncle David... why are there so many people here?"
Although Roland was far less natural than when he greeted each other in the morning, and his tone was a bit more reserved, David, not only did not have any doubts, but was also very happy. In his opinion, this is the normal behavior of children.
In places other than schools and Disneyland, I have seen many children of my own age. If you don’t ask questions in doubt, but calm down instead, then you seem a bit too old.
What David wants is naturally not the maturity that Roland pretended to be strong. He just hopes that the children of his friends can grow up healthily.
"Roland, don't be nervous."
"They are here to audition, just like you."
"This is just a part of it. According to Fox's recruitment data, there are two hundred people auditioning."
same as me?
Are you auditioning?
The total number of people reached two hundred?
Hearing these words, the corner of Roland's mouth twitched.
Oh, mygod!
what is happening?
What fairy role did this couple find for me?
Roland, who used to think that he had no doubts about his strategy, was a little bit overwhelmed now.
He felt that if he didn't ask any questions, something big might happen later.
He raised his head and looked at the familiar face.
Roland finally asked what was on his mind.
"Uncle David, can you tell me what kind of role you and Aunt Ganetti have found for me?"
The suddenly serious words attracted David's attention, he looked around, his eyes lowered slightly with emotion, seeing the doubts flashing across his immature face, he smiled and patted Roland on the shoulder .
"Roland, you haven't asked about this before, I thought you were really not interested in acting at all."
"What kind of role did Ganetti find you?"
"I don't actually know..."
"When I asked Ganetti to inquire about the crew last month, she happened to know that a crew needed to recruit children as young as ten years old. Moreover, the crew also specifically stated that to apply for children, they must have no acting experience."
"You are ten years old, and you don't have any acting experience, so I asked Aunt Ganetti to sign you up."
What?
Don't have any acting experience?
What kind of ghost condition is this?
If the audition location is not on Fox's set, he will even suspect that this is a scam.
Hollywood liars can make a TV series.
There are countless dream chasers here, and they are fat sheep in the eyes of liars.
Many scammers, taking advantage of everyone's psychology of wanting to be famous, fabricate a project to attract those who want to be famous to sign up, and after charging a certain fee, they will disappear from the world.
Don't think that in the movie "Chicago", Roxy's encounter will only exist in the 1920s.
As long as someone wants to become famous, the leeks in this industry will never be cut off.
Roland only felt the blood vessels on his forehead twitch a few times. Although the room was only over 20 degrees, he still felt very hot.
"Then - can I know who the director is? Or, is there any famous person in this crew?"
In his previous life, Roland commented on nearly a thousand movies, regardless of whether they were popular or popular, as long as he had a certain reputation, he could recall them. After all, this is not his interest, this is his job!
Although David didn't understand why Roland suddenly became so interested in this audition.
But since Roland wanted to know, he didn't hide it.
His goal is to get Roland out of the shadow of his parents' death.
Now that Roland wants to know other things, it's too late for him to be happy, so why hide it?
"Director?"
"This—you won't recognize it if I say it."
"Chris Columbus."
"Do you know him?"
"He has been working as a screenwriter before, and he has only made one or two movies. Moreover, you probably haven't seen any of his movies."
"Besides him, there are famous people."
"John Hughes."
"The producer of this film."
"However, you should not know."
What are you talking about?
When David announced the two names lightly, Roland doubted his ears and misheard.
Looked blankly at David, his mouth was as big as an angel baby.
Chris Columbus?
How could he not know this director!
And John Hughes?
This guy's name is even bigger!
Note: ①In the movie "Chicago", the heroine Roxy was deceived by a relative who claimed to be the producer. ②It doesn’t matter which territory it is, regardless of the stage of entertainment’s initial development, being discovered by talent scouts is just a dream. The entertainment industry is actually very closed. ③When the Olsen sisters were filming "Full House", the crew did only sign with Ashley. There are two reasons. The first is that the crew only needs one girl. check.
