Chapter 124 A character

You surprised me again, Ed, although you have surprised me many times.

After taking his eyes back from the crowd, Spielberg suddenly said with emotion.

Maybe it's because you, Stanley, and I, are essentially different in some aspects.Adrian shrugged, not reacting too much.

This is exactly what surprised me the most.

Spielberg shook his head and said, "I certainly know you are different from me and Stanley, Ed, but you can convince Stanley to take over his new work and even be completed soon." I know Stanley. He is slower than anyone else in making movies. He pursues perfection too much. Each movie will never be completed without a year or two. This is why his works are so few, but you...

He sat down and gestured without further ado, but looked at Adrian with a bright look, as if he wanted to listen to his explanation.

It's just persuasion. I will have to wait until the production is completed before I know. It may be very different from what Stanley wants to express. Maybe it's really a second-rate erotic movie as some media say. Who knows?

Adrian waved his hand exaggeratedly and did not directly answer Spielberg's question, and he did not directly ask anyway.

Don't think I'm a fool, Ed.

Spielberg laughed, I said I knew Stanley. If he hadn't seen something he recognized in you, he would never have agreed to let other directors take over his work, even if he might leave the world with regret, he would be more stubborn than you think.

Well…well, honestly, I read Fantasy Story before, but that was in college.

Adrian grabbed his head and smiled bitterly. The tabloid should have told you that I was a prodigal son at that time. This book was also read as an erotic novel at that time.After cheering up, as I went deeper to make the movie, many of my views gradually changed. With some of my own personalities, I felt completely different from the time I read this novel again, such as the inexplicable sense of crisis between husband and wife.

Hearing this, Spielberg suddenly said softly, and then showed a look of silence. Adrian also laughed. His playboy name is basically known to everyone, but people in the circle know more clearly than ordinary people, let alone Spielberg's two god girls have slept with him.

At that time, I had the idea of ​​making it into a movie, but I also knew that Stanley had already obtained the adaptation rights early, and Stanley's ideas were different, so I just thought about it until I heard Clarkson say that he had unfortunately suffered a stroke in bed and that he might not be able to complete the movie.

Adrian continued to say that at first I just wanted to try it out. After all, this was a good opportunity. Later, I had a clearer understanding of Stanley's life, and my interest became even more prosperous. However, it was no longer how to get the right to make the movie from Stanley, but how to make it into the movie Stanley wanted.

He paused here, and he glanced at Spielberg, and then spoke again after considering the following words: Maybe I wanted to prove myself, maybe I just wanted to pay tribute to Stanley. After all, he is a director with a unique style. For this reason, I locked myself in the room for five days before I conceived some content based on the script. Fortunately, these things were recognized by Stanley, and I finally got the director of "The Eye Opening Ring".

With a long sigh, Adrian smiled and patted Spielberg who was thinking about his words: OK, Steven, don't dig into these things. Sometimes I can't understand them myself. Those pictures seem to appear out of thin air in my mind. All I have to do is to connect them together intact. Maybe I have essential differences with you in some places, but essentially consistent in some places.So, let’s change the topic. Today is the premiere of your new work. I missed the visit and the preview. I must not miss this again.

OK, then let's go in now.

Spielberg, who originally wanted to say something, sighed and then smiled and reached out to make a gesture of invitation.

He couldn't help but sigh that Adrian respectfully asked him to screen "Jurassic Park" for a while in his office, but now it vaguely gives him a feeling of looking up.

Spielberg will find Carsonberg and Geffen to set up DreamWorks, and want to show some business skills. Although it is because he won the Oscar for Best Director with "Schindler's List", he fulfilled his wish and was also considered a success and fame, and he was not influenced by Adrian.

Unexpectedly, they just started to start after they ambitions to form a new company, and Adrian's AC Media has acquired ABC to become a large media group.

Well, maybe it can't be compared with him in business, but Spielberg still has his own voice in film production. However, Adrian quickly became the youngest best director at the Oscar. Now he can still win the recognition of Stanley Kubrick and produce an unfinished new movie for him. If Kubrick doesn't recognize it, the movie cannot be released. Spielberg has heard of it. What's more, the scripts of the movie premiered today are all from Adrian. Spielberg suddenly feels that he is old, so it's no wonder he asked so many questions just now.

However, he quickly adjusted. Although Adrian was young, there was only one person like him at present, so it didn't matter if he really looked up to him in the future. Spielberg was still a good businessman when he put down the guide. DreamWorks's shareholding was also a member of AC Media. Adrian always respected him very much, so why bother to care about these things?

Adrian was also quite clear about Spielberg's thoughts, so he tried his best to make up such a long paragraph.

Just now he realized that he had done something a little bit too much. Since he took over the movie, familiar directors or producers have been amazed by his behavior. Many people know Kubrick's style in filmmaking. What would people think if he had produced a movie that was almost similar to Kubrick's style in such a short time?

Even if he is a miracle director, even if he has created many miracles, even if people always subconsciously find explanations for things that cannot be explained, but...

You should know that Adrian's purpose in taking over is not just Nicole Kidman, but also wants to take this opportunity to add some more glory to his aura. If he adds too much, it will be dazzling and he will not be able to add it to this level in the future.

To be moderate and to know how to choose, Adrian was able to get to where he is today. In addition to the advantages of luck and rebirth, he always stays calm and controls his desires and does things as hard as possible. It is also one of the reasons.

Of course, these are things that may happen, which means that they may not happen, but there is no harm in being cautious.

So instead of letting people make random guesses, it is better to take the initiative to explain and guide the topic. As long as a well-known person in the circle accepts his explanation and speaks for him, even if there is a problem, it will be much smaller, and Spielberg is a good goal.

Well, now is not the time to talk about this, and it is not something that can be done once or twice, so after finding his place, Adrian was joking with others while waiting for the beginning of the movie. Tonight's main show is also the premiere of "Save Private Ryan".

Needless to say, the opening ten minutes are still very violent, bloody and real. Although the intense scenes at Omaha Beach are not 100% replicated, they are more cruel than any other war movie.

DreamWorks put a lot of effort into this premiere and communicated with the theater in particular. The sound effects were extremely outstanding, making people feel as if they were on the scene. There was even a lady screaming when the Flameser was hit and exploded.

Spielberg's control over the rhythm was indeed first-class. After the intense scenes, it did not allow people to relax. The rows of female typists and randomly read out heavy narrations continued to capture the hearts of the audience.

He also knew exactly how to cater to mainstream American values, such as Ryan's mother received three death notices at the same time, as well as the subsequent debate about whether to rescue the youngest child, and climaxed when Eisenhower took out Lincoln's letter.

Needless to say, Captain Miller, played by Tom Hanks, led eight people to start the journey of rescue. Various things emerged one after another in the middle, and the cruelty and coincidence of the war, and the paradox of saving one by one were all reflected.

When they finally found the youngest Ryan, the other party refused to leave, saying that they received the order to guard the bridge, which showed the man's responsibility here.

This is an uphill battle, perhaps not as intense as the previous battle scenes, but it is no less cruel than the beginning landing battle.

Especially when the German soldiers pierced the dagger into the body of a member of the eight-man team little by little during the fight, Adrian heard the long-lost scream again.

The movie finally ended, the eight-man team was wiped out, and Ryan finally survived, and then lived as Captain Miller told him to marry and have children.

Steven Spielberg is worthy of being the first-class director to praise American mainstream values ​​so well and at the same time to counter the war by showing cruel war scenes. Even Adrian couldn't help but have a regretful idea.

However, he adjusted quickly. There are some good movies, but he left a lot of good things for himself, so this did not prevent him from praising him in the rest room later: Very outstanding. Although I knew this would be an excellent movie, it still exceeded my expectations. If I were to direct it, there would definitely be no such effect.

If someone else said this, I would definitely agree, but you... Spielberg shrugged, his half-joking look seemed a bit meaningful.

I'm serious, Steven.

Adrian shook his head, for example, after landing in the battle, Captain Miller held the kettle with his trembling hands and drank water. I had conceived this picture while writing the first draft.In my thoughts, I should first show my trembling hands closing the kettle from top to bottom, and then his somewhat out-of-focused eyes, but your conception is obviously better.

He said this sincerely, because it was originally made by Spielberg. He was quite impressed by this shot in his previous life. It naturally emerged from his mind when he was writing the first draft. However, although this version is still produced by Spielberg, it has undergone considerable changes. He chose to cut in from the side and then switched it quickly and slowly when Captain Miller looked up and drank water. This made this shot even more like a survivor.

This changes and becomes more outstanding shots take several more places throughout the movie, so Adrian sighs so much.

And Tommy's outstanding acting skills.

Spielberg laughed. He was at the peak at that time, so he had that effect. When we repeated the shooting the next day, we could never achieve that situation again.

This, however, looks like you will have another masterpiece, Tommy.Adrian turned his head and said to Hanks.

Thank you, it is an honor to be able to cooperate with you.Hanks was as modest as ever.

Hey Steven, is Tommy flattering?Adrian asked deliberately, raised his eyebrows.

Generally speaking, we never deny our contributions, so... it should be counted.Spielberg said with a smile.

OK, it's popular, then... Hanks showed a helpless look. Are you honored to work with me, two directors?

Adrian and Spielberg looked at each other, and then the three of them burst into laughter.

After talking for several minutes, seeing that the number of guests in the lounge began to decrease, the reporters around probably had already begun to decrease as the movie ended, so Adrian said goodbye and left, but he was not going back.

Hi, Ruifan, Joaquin, how are you doing recently?He came straight to the Phoenix brothers.

Hi Ed, I'm so happy to see you.Revan shook hands with Adrian with a smile, and he always felt grateful for him.

I have to say that in today's movie, you all performed very well, although they didn't appear for a long time.Adrian photographed both of them.

Joaquin Phoenix plays the doctor in the eight-man team, the first to be killed, while Ruifan plays the object of rescue and does not come out until the end.

However, although there is little playing time, it has all eye-catching performances.

Thanks, thanks to your recommendation.Ruifan shrugged.

Come on, Ruifan, I'm not blind, the media's comments on you are almost back to the past.Adrian said with a smile and shook his head.

Although the slow pace of "The Story of Fire" has been criticized a lot, and the showdown between the two actors has attracted the attention of most people, Ruifan still has many highlights in it.

Later, he starred in a low-cost movie, this time he played an honest young man who was seduced to commit crimes in ignorance, and then struggled desperately to break out of the trap, which was a bit different from his previous slightly unrestrained screen image.

Although the movie does not have much box office, its reputation is pretty good, especially Ruifan's performance has made many film critics praise it, and the negative news caused by drug abuse and hospitalization has been almost wiped out.

Frankly speaking, you brothers are both excellent, and it goes without saying that you and Joaquin are going to be released soon. If it weren't for the fact that you two are his brothers, maybe I would have arranged for the release before "Save Private Ryan".

Adrian said jokingly.

As one of the prime periods of two movies every year, how could Adrian not arrange a movie that makes money?

"The Sixth Sense" has been waiting for a long time.As the youngest child in the Phoenix family, Silver has inherited a lot of acting skills, and her performances in it are definitely no worse than Haley Joe Osmon.

We thank you very much, Ed, really.Joaquin said seriously.

Thank you for Silver, too.Ruifan smiled and shook his head for his younger brother, then said so.

If I really want to thank me, I might as well have a good talk with Silver. He is very talented in acting, but his greatest interest is singing.Well, there are indeed many people who make movies and record records. You two may occasionally make guest appearances in Keanu's band, right?But if the two develop at the same time, the final result may be that both are mediocre.

Adrian said, "For me personally, I really hope he can go further in performance, but it depends on his own choice. It doesn't matter if he really wants to develop together. Maybe he can achieve surprising achievements in both aspects in the future.

I'll talk to him, Ed.After exchanging glances with Joaquin, Ruifan nodded and agreed.

Very good.Adrian patted his hands lightly, then looked at Ruifan with a smile, then, let's talk about your affairs, Ruifan.

I?Ruifan looked at him in confusion, is there anything else?

A character.Adrian's smile remains unchanged. A good character, I don't think there is a more suitable character than you, so I hope you can agree.

As he said that, he spread his hands to Joaquin again: Sorry, Joaquin, there is no main character in this movie who died and did not meet.

Well...it doesn't matter... Joaquin immediately laughed.

This joke comes from Spielberg. He once complained to Adrian that although Rivian and Joaquin did not look very similar, they could still see the shadow of their brothers when they stood together, so Spielberg had a headache about how to arrange them.

This was originally a story of saving the youngest child of Ryan's family. It was obviously inappropriate to let the two brothers go to the battlefield together and then die, so after thinking about it, Joaquin was finally arranged to kill Joaquin in front to solve this problem.

Can I know what kind of character it is?Ruifan inserted it in.

Very simple, an upright policeman.Adrian replied with a smile, an upright 50s Los Angeles policeman.
