"Eric, Firefly didn't have another movie this year that didn't find a distributor?" Talking about a few other things, Robert Shay unwittingly shifted the topic to the Firefly movie.
Eric looked around, 《Scent of a Woman》 finally filmed this month, has entered the post-production stage, he just saw Al Pacino, because at the time he was chatting with Robert Shay, Al just nodded to him from the distance under.
But at a glance, although many people greeted him with his eyes, he did n’t see Al and others for a while, so he quickly turned his eyes back to Robert and said: "Yes, but 《Scent of a Woman》 is an Olympic art film of a movie. If you can win the award, this movie Box Office will definitely be good. If you ca n’t get it, it ’s difficult to say. Although I have watched Mao Shu, the performance of Al is very amazing, but After all, there are still a lot of games in Oscar, and it is not that the film is excellent and you will definitely get the award. "
Robert Shay knows that Eric does not trust his public relations network: "Eric, I admit that in terms of network, I am definitely not as good as Six Great Film Studios, but it does not mean that the other party can win the award. The six majors rely on this advantage at most. Brush a few nominations on Oscar to improve the sales of Box Office and subsequent videos. Just like last year, you should have watched 《Working Girl》. Although the movie won a series of nominations, in the end, it won nothing. This is the result of Fox's PR The awards must still be based on strength. Although public relations is essential, it does not mean that public relations is everything. Eric, you think about it again. If 《Scent of a Woman》 is handed over to a large company for distribution, they must have other films to operate , So I wo n’t focus all of my energy on this movie, but I can devote all my resources to this movie. ”
Eric is in short hesitation.
Robert Shay knows that Eric has been loosened and quickly said: "Eric, don't you find it? This year is a typical Oscar year."
"Huh?" Eric showed a puzzled expression, he vaguely remembered such a saying. But it's just a kind of half-knowledge.
Robert Shay explained patiently: "You think about it, there was 《Rain Man》 of Dustin Hoffman last year. There is 《The Accused》 of Jodie Foster, and there are a series of Oscar hot films such as" Unexpected Traveler "," Mississippi is Burning ", 《Dangerous Liaisons》, last one This year's Golden Globe Award plot category Heroine even produced the "three yellow eggs", and there were three people who won the best Heroine at the same time. That was the standard Oscar year. But this year is different. Now the year has passed After two thirds, I did n’t even see the shadow of a Oscar hot movie. You might say that those videos will definitely be placed at the end of the year, but I still have some concerns in this regard. There are no well-known big Director or well-known Actor new works will be released. So I ’m sure this year will be Oscar. As long as you said, Mr. Al Pacino in 《Scent of a Woman》 is very amazing. Then, plus he has already won With several nominations for Oscar Best Actor, the final result will be easy to imagine. "
Eric is in deep thought. He did not care that Robert Shay directly ignored the possible actions of 《Pretty Woman》 and 《Running Out of Time》 on Oscar. He knows that at his younger age, he is still very conservative. The film school will certainly not award any awards to him. It is already a good result to be able to brush a few nominations.
What he is thinking about is the Oscar small year that Robert Shay said. With the Robert Shay story, Eric also remembers more previous life about the Oscar size year. In my memory, 《Scent of a Woman》 seems to have only won the award for best actor. The best film nominee has been lost to Eric. I do n’t know. But this year, if it's really a Oscar year. 《Scent of a Woman》 will definitely have the possibility to impact the best film of Oscar.
"Eric?" Robert Shay waited for a while, but no response from Eric, could not help reminding.
Eric heard his name suddenly withdrew his thoughts, and accidentally shook his wrist, almost splashing red wine: "Oh, sorry, Robert, I am a little distracted."
Robert Shay asked: "What do you think?"
"Huh?" After Eric was talked about by Robert for a long time, there was no response for a while.
"About the release of 《Scent of a Woman》?" Robert Shay seemed to remind patiently.
Eric has some troubles. If this year is Oscar, it is a safer way to hand over 《Scent of a Woman》 to the seven major operations.
Before Weinstein Brothers has been trained as a Oscar gold medal pusher, Big Film Studio still has an absolute advantage in the public relations of this award, but at the same time, he also knows that, as Robert Shay said, any of the Big Seven will not fully operate 《Scent of a Woman》 Unless he gives up most of the benefits, isn't the prize for the benefit?
Eric I was about to agree, but Al Pacino Finally, I do n’t know where to get out, and come towards myself, Eric I remembered that right Al The promise of this movie is to let Al Pacino Created by getting the best actor. Then, if you obey Robert Shay Of recommendations due to Firefly If the new line is issued after the merger, then there must be a certain risk in the public relations of awards. Although the possibility is extremely small, in case of the butterfly effect, Al Again with Oscar What if the best actor passes by? By the time Al It ’s hard to guarantee that because of this Firefly Create a gap, Eric I still value and Al Pacino Of the cooperative relationship, also in the 1990s Al During the peak period of performing arts, maintain a good cooperative relationship with the other party, regardless of Box Office Or awards Firefly Can be more beneficial.
In this case, it is better to push the decision to Al. Although the possibility of the other party being finally agreed by Robert is high, but in the event of a very small probability event, Al is not very good. May spread the gas on Firefly.
"Robert, I personally agree on this matter," Eric said, not waiting for Robert to show a happy look, Eric said: "However, 《Scent of a Woman》 was made by me to invite Al to participate in 《Pretty Woman》 Decided that although Al has gained more now because of 《Pretty Woman》, I ca n’t ignore the original promise, so if you want to leave the distribution rights of 《Scent of a Woman》, you need to be able to persuade Al, Oh you see, he came . "
Eric put the stemware in the tray of a waiter and walked towards Al Pacino: "Al, long time no see."
Al Pacino embraced Eric enthusiastically: "I haven't seen you in a long time, Eric, you look a lot more mature and handsome, and more fascinating the little girls. Don't forget to give us these outdated old men a little bit of life. "
"Haha, can't you find a beauty by your means," Eric said a few words to Al before introducing it; "Al, this is Robert Shay, Robert, this is Al."
"Actually, you don't need to introduce, we still know," Al said so, still shaking hands with Robert Shay: "Hello, Robert, I believe it is a very correct choice to cooperate with Eric."
Robert Shay smiled slightly: "I hope so."
"So, we just happened to talk about 《Scent of a Woman》, you guys talk, I'll go to the bathroom first." Eric pointed to the corridor not far away, although Al Pacino wanted to talk more with Eric, but look at each other's Pointing in the direction, nodded.
Eric greeted the guests at random, slowly walked to the entrance of the banquet hall, walked through the crowd, and just stepped into the corridor, a red petite body hit him and slammed backwards, Eric quickly reached out to hold the girl and hugged her in her arms.
"It's you, your name is ... um, Gab ..." Eric recognized the face at a glance, but thought about it, but didn't think of the other party's name in the first place. Although the memory of previous life is copied magically because of crossing, this body does not have the ability to remember.
"Gabriel. Anwar."
The girl replied softly. She originally found that she was hugging Eric, but she was still a little bit happy, but when she saw that the other party did n’t recognize herself, and she was upset, she put her small hand on Eric ’s chest and forgot to let the other party let herself go. .
Eric only remembered this. It was the girl who came to Los Angeles from United Kingdom to audition when she first met 《Running Out of Time》, and it was also the Heroine of the amazing tango dance in 《Scent of a Woman》.
A middle-aged man turned his head from the banquet hall into the corridor with his head down, and looked strangely at the pair of men and women hugging together. When Eric heard the movement and turned his head, the man recognized the identity of Eric at a glance, smiled, and shrank back. Eric recognized that it was a staff member of Firefly. Although the reaction of the other party seemed to be too extreme, it is also conceivable that Boss and the woman were found to be "intimate", and that woman was obviously not a genuine girlfriend of Boss. Wearing small shoes must be avoided.
"Just now, I'm so sorry, I ran into you, Miss Anwar," Eric was interrupted by this, and quickly released the petite girl from her arms, and subconsciously lifted the hair that fell on her forehead for the girl.
"No, it doesn't matter," the girl shook her head, and with the movement of the Eric's finger on the forehead, there was a hint of blush on her cheeks.
However, Gabriel soon found out angrily that the incomprehensible man said sorry and walked away.
Stomped gently, the girl had to take the initiative to shout: "Hey!" (to be continued)
