King of Hollywood Chapter 144: Better than expected
Chapter 144 is better than expected
"I have to admit that this is something that is unsure but unavoidable. From the beginning to the end, I don’t think Adrian can produce Kubrick-style works. The idea is different, the experience is different, the accumulated time is different, there is an essential difference. The great thing about Kubrick is that he can always point to the darkest part of people and society in the movie. This is almost No one can reach it, but today it was broken by a young director."-"Washington Post"
"Obviously, common sense does not work on Adrian, and it is not certain that "Eyes Wide Shut" from his hand is what Kubrick wants, but it is also not sure that "Eyes Wide Shut" from his hand is not Kubrick. What I want is so similar but slightly different, it makes people unable to make a real judgment, and Miracle Director deserves to be a Miracle Director."-"Zhongyi"
Two days later, those comments were finally released, but either they were ambiguous as above, or they focused on analyzing the plot as below without mentioning the dispute.
"Overall, this is still a movie about the marital crisis. The director is very keen on capturing the feeling of mistrust between husband and husband. The husband just solved a possible scandal for the employer, and His wife was suspicious because she saw him entangled with a pair of nv models before, and was almost seduce by an old man.
Although his wife controlled her impulse because of reason, the seeds of doubt have been planted, but as the director guided step by step, the husband and wife finally had a conflict. The husband could not contain his suspicion, and his rich associations and sudden emotions made him impulsive, and then joined the underground party organized by a wealthy class under the instigation of his old classmates and put himself in danger. local.
After getting away easily, the husband began to trace the truth again. It seems that this has almost nothing to do with the first half of the story, but the director used several shots to suggest that it was because of the previous crisis of trust that he was eager for the truth. As if it were clear that his wife had really been cheated. Finally, under the previous employer's showdown, the husband finally realized how dangerous he was, and realized the importance of the family, and finally returned to his wife and wept bitterly. It seems to be a happy ending, but the wife's last line in the mall tells the audience vividly that some things will never end, giving people endless associations.
Whether it’s a clever composition, a contrasting face, or a soundtrack from a bystander, it’s all about what the whole story wants to express, and the party in the middle seems to be ridiculous, but if you watch it carefully There is no emotion at all. Some are just a bit of weirdness. The director used this method to interpret the theme that has always been: the alienation of people in the material society. This is a thought-provoking work”——The famous film critic Morris Sheden
Most people do not deny that the meaning of this movie is too precise to define. Most people also admit that at least this movie continues one of Kubrick’s themes, that is Morris Sheden's sentence "alienation of people from the material society". Whether it is "Dr. Love" or "1 Space Roaming", "The Shining" or "Full Full Metal Jacket", such a theme is very obvious.
But some people still sing the opposite tone. For example, that Marissa? Maggie nv warrior: "Adrian produced a sensational work. Although he learned the style of Kubrick in the situation, he was not sure about the inner things. This is especially true of that absurd party, whether it is the wife played by Nicole Kidman or the nv played by Vanessa Shaw and others, they are extremely weak, and the only resistance is also because of the husband’s insincere confession. The smoke disappeared easily, he didn't seem to realize what the original novel wanted to express, and he didn't really consider Kubrick's thoughts, but just smeared at his own will after doing superficial work."
This is obviously a performance that can’t afford to lose. It’s not that there is a counter-singing. For example, film critic Aiden Karon severely criticized the film for being too ua whistle and focusing on form. The slow rhythm is not interesting at all. But the problem is that this film critic and Kubrick never match each other. As early as in the years, they criticized "The Shining" and "All Full Metal Jacket" as useless works. It is normal to write such comments.
But this Maggie nv had previously claimed to be Kubrick’s shadow, but when most people think it’s Kubrick’s style that needs to be figured out, he writes such a comment, then It can only be said that she refused to admit defeat for the sake of face. Such people are everywhere, even if the evidence has been obtained, they can be pretended not to be seen, not to mention the situation where there are countless places to say.
Kubrick’s die-hard shadow mí still spares no effort to attack Adrian. This is a common problem for fans. Once they hold their idol on the altar in their hearts, they will never be allowed to be touched by others, even if If there is a mistake, it is also good to refute and to argue. Although Adrian also has a lot of diehards, because there are too many subjects involved, and the style has never been unified, the so-called slightly loose, it is difficult to be their opponent.
However, these people soon split up. After watching the "Eyes Wide Shut" several times, a small part of the real movie specializing in Kubrick movies, although very reluctant, they began to look squarely, but more Many people like Kubrick to highlight their own taste. Once this unique feeling is broken, they will be very angry and dissatisfied. Kubrick’s movies were originally niche and able to produce their own voice. In addition to the rise of the Internet, they rely on the cohesion of Kubrick’s favorite movies. No matter what the reasons for this preference are, they can now be divided. , There is no more weight in what you say.
In short, in early March of 1997, the media debated the most, not for the prediction of the 69th Oscar, but for various debates about "Eyes Wide Shut". As the film was released in Europe, European critics and directors praised the film itself. They like the tone themselves. Of course, it is still debated whether Adrian is produced in accordance with the Kubrick style.
The combination of these factors made the slightly lower movie box office actually go a lot higher on a certain weekend. The very happy Warner saw that the heat was enough to let Clarkson watch Kubrick’s reaction to the movie. It was also thrown out, and the media that got the news immediately aroused more discussion after asking Kubrick's nv Er Anya.
What does it mean to shake your head first? Then what does it mean that you can't move because of a stroke, but you can erect your thumbs? Is Kubrick dissatisfied and satisfied? Still satisfied but sorry? What are you regretting? Many critics racked their brains to find out, and various invitations for visits were sent to Adrian again and again. Those who have turned into opposition for the past seem to have been slapped hard. Even if there are still a few clamoring, they have been left behind by the public.
The miracle director once again created a miracle, which is the topic most talked about by ordinary people during this time. It's just that those questions will never be answered. In mid-March, Stanley Kubrick had a sudden brain hemorrhage in his dream and then left the world. The people in the circle expressed their regrets whether they liked it or not. At the same time, it also coated the Adrian with a layer of mysterious aura.
"Anya said he walked peacefully and seemed to be very happy with the wish. I have to say that you are awesome, Ed, I can’t see you anymore, and it’s impossible to do it for me. It's so good." Spielberg felt so much about Adrian at a reception, and asked if he would take over the production of "".
Of course, Adrian rejected this proposal: "Since Stanley originally proposed that he make you a director, you should not let go of this responsibility, Steven, I think you are fully capable of making this movie. As for me I can only say good luck. After all, Stanley had already conceived "Eyes Wide Shut" before. I just expressed his ideas."
The movie "" still allows Spielberg to make it. With "Eyes Wide Shut" is enough, the purpose of taking over was basically completely achieved, even better than expected. What is there now? Can't he make a movie? A miracle director can create miracles if he thinks about it, right?
On the other hand, at the beginning of the release of "Eyes Wide Shut", the tabloid gossip about Nicole Kidman has not been broken. For a while, Cruz said that she began the Cold War because of her bold dissatisfaction in the movie. For a while, she said that she was dating the actor in the movie who was acting with her—who made her look incredibly engaged in those few shots.
Although Nicole and Cruz are intimate in public from time to time, they have been taken with pictures that seem a bit divorced. For a time, the rumor that the two are in a stalemate and may be divorced is even more clamoring. As for the object of the gossip, no one inquired about his whereabouts. At first, in the movie, there was basically no complete front. Secondly, the film company claimed that because there were only a few shots, it found a male model to stare. Any information.
Everyone knows that this is bullshit. As a person in the entertainment industry, how can it be possible to take the opportunity to hype without taking this opportunity. But the fact is that it is so interesting, no one can find the trace of this actor, even Tom? Cruz's inquiries about turning people around did not get an answer.
"Just let him be an eternal puzzle." Adrian said in an interview.
He ended up on a talk show. Of course, choosing a TV station, as a boss, of course, must support his company. This makes several other TV stations very frustrated. Can the boss of the parent company not cause all kinds of sensation like Adrian?
Adrian talked happily throughout the interview and did not evade many topics. Although participating is his own boss, he did not give more discounts. The talk show host Jon was vigorously dug up last year. Stuart asked almost one by one, seemingly wishing to ask all the questions accumulated during this time.
"I actually don't particularly like Stanley's movies. After all, our views are different in many places-although I have never been in contact with him before."
"It's hard to describe that feeling, as if you stretched out your hand inadvertently, but grabbed a wire that is only a few microns in diameter floating in the air."
"I understand their feelings, the martial king, the Holy King, the sacred king, the night kills the **** seal, the throne, and the strongest abandonment of the young king. Shaozhou Zhou royal family martial Qiankun will kill God God Seal Throne at night and beg the Ao Shijiutian the strongest abandon Shao Da Zhou royal gods will kill God God Seal the Throne at the night begging Ao Shijiu Chongtian the strongest to abandon the Shaozhou Zhou royal family, the beginning I also don’t believe that I can really finish this work, but I never think about it after I start working, but I try to simulate Stanley’s way of thinking as much as possible. I just said that although I and Stanley has many differences, but I respect him very much."
"They are very good, whether it’s Nicole or Tom, it’s perfect for Stanley to invite them to play this couple, they all do their best to perform their roles
“Yes, there is a lot of pressure. After all, such scenes have never been filmed in Hollywood’s film history. As for ratings, it’s a paa thing. Since they all think it’s okay, what’s the problem?”
After the program was broadcast, the ratings inevitably increased by a few percentage points, and the public was more curious about Adrian. A young director who didn’t particularly like Kubrick, but because he respected him, he resolutely took over the guide tube after his stroke was paralyzed. He actually helped him to complete his wish and let him leave the world without regret. Sounds like Magical, isn't it?
So in the eyes of ordinary people, Adrian began to look great, but opponents also found a good excuse. They claimed that since Adrian didn’t like Kubrick so much, how could he make a movie of his style? Kubrick would have agreed to be blinded at first, and the subsequent reaction was probably ironic.
Look, where have they all been, but unfortunately not many people care about their remarks after the argument lasting for half a month, these things have not been more compelling about the discussion of film ratings.
Since the "New York Times" questioned the rating of "Eyes Wide Shut", more and more conservatives have joined it, and they all think it is very inappropriate to rate this movie as "r".
"The definition of "r-level" is that the film contains human content, and there are more scenes of violent and drug use and swear words; while the definition of -17 is that there are clear scenes, a large number of drug or violent scenes and swear words. In any case, "Eyes Wide Shut" is more in line with the latter rather than the former, and it can be said that paa has failed in this respect." A conservative group spokesman said publicly.
But the person in charge of paa immediately gave a rebuttal: "According to Article 17 of Article 14, the judges have the right to rate the film based on their own opinions, and the entire rating process is evaluated by five professionals and will be carried out Two reviews, so such accusations are unjustified."
The same a-feng you have come and gone is not hilarious, but it’s useless even if more people accuse it of improper rating. After all, the rating has been set and released in major theaters. Even if Paa finally admits that the rating is not correct, it won't help. Besides, Paa will not allow irrelevant personnel to point fingers at themselves.
"This is the benefit of having the right to speak in paa." Adrian said to Claude this way.
"Anyway, you have planned it, aren't you?" Claude replied.
"Yeah, I have planned it, as long as you support it." Adrian nodded.
"Relax, if everything goes well, you won't wait too long." Claude smiled confidently.
Okay, not to mention this, anyway, it will be months away. But now, the media is still controversial about "Eyes Wide Shut", even the original version has not had such a big battle? I can be proud again.
However, as the end of the month approaches, Oscar is gradually getting closer, and various predictions have begun to occupy various pages, plus Adrian has also rarely been on several shows, so the heat is finally declining, at least For him, he can put jīng force more in other aspects, such as --
"Uh-ha" Drew screamed and jumped up a high kick uǐ, still learning Bruce? Lee used his thumbs to nose, but it was so cute.
Cameron next to him also followed such a kick, but prepared to put his feet down and try to straighten as much as possible, tilting his body almost in line with another uǐ. It's just that this gesture didn't last too long, it was only a few seconds later, and it stumbled and almost fell, but Adrian hugged her for the first time.
"Although I know you are training very well, don't be so brave." He said sarcastically.
"Cami just wants you to taste her ulu said with a smile.
"I have tasted it already." Adrian said teasingly, indeed it has been tasted already. Two nv people put a uǐ on him. Although this position is a bit hard, it also stings~IndoMTL.com~ Since flying with them, Drew and Cameron have basically moved forward and backward, which is also very good. Even if it is a three-person trip every time, Adrian can still easily meet them, and he can play more freely. .
The Kelly Hu face next to her has changed slightly. How can she not hear the meaning, but she is obviously a man. During this time, she got along with Drew and Cameron. , So even if you hear something, you will pretend not to know, but you will inevitably glance at Adrian.
These movements can't escape Adrian's eyes, but he didn't care much. The Kelly Hu's uǐ skill has also been tried, and the taste is also very good.
"Okay, let's start shooting," noticed the director's gesture in the distance, Adrian made a gesture at this time, "Now let me see how you use the results of training in the shooting."
This is one of the reasons why he ou Kong went to the studio of "Perak Baby" to observe them. Yuan Zhenyang, who was in charge of training them, affirmed their hard work, and Adrian wanted to see the actual shooting effect because of his episode. The new film directed by the director, "The Matrix", has been turned on. fa.
