King of Hollywood Chapter 154: Lucas and Industrial Light and Magic


As before, the 50th Film Golden Globe Awards nomination list was announced on December 19th. Although most people expected that Bosworth Films would occupy the most limelight, wait for the list I was shocked when I came out. Basically, the three films produced by Bosworth Films occupy all the nominations except the comedy song and dance movie and special awards

Best movie, best director, best screenwriter, best actor and actress... Even "Scent of a Woman" and "Howard Manor" were also nominated for the best film, so that some people think that if he makes a comedy movie and Or foreign language films, will also get nominations. He naturally refers to the director and producer of the three films, known as the Adrian?Kewell directed by the Wizards

Such a statement must not be exaggerated, not to mention those films before him. The three works released this year alone are enough to make people's eyes spend. "Pulp Fiction", which got Golden Palm and received 100 million box office in North America; "Scent of a Woman", which allows Al Pacino to perform freely and reverse his impression of only cult-style movies; and makes the British speechless "Howard Manor".

Especially this last niche movie has actually won 30 million box office in North America, and it is currently advancing to 40 million. The media even exclaimed that even if it is obviously a loss-making movie, as long as it comes from his hand Quite a few, if these three films were produced by three non-directors in the same year, or by the same director in different years, it’s not a big deal, but now they are produced by the same director in the same year. Come out... Frankly speaking, this kind of thing has never happened in Hollywood again.

So it’s normal to get so many nominations for the Golden Globe Awards, and it’s normal to get such an evaluation. It’s just that people need time to digest this reality. After all, this is the first time someone has done this.” A reporter from the Los Angeles Times wrote: "Maybe, the Wizards director can change his name. How about the director Miracle?"

Of course, this kind of name is just a lot of teasing and ridicule. Although the Golden Globes have some weight, they are still not as good as the Oscars. However, the Golden Globe is also considered one of the Oscars’ weather vanes, so many people are wondering what will happen when the Oscar nomination list is released after more than a month.

Therefore, many reporters are chasing the figure of Adrian, wanting to hear his feelings about winning so many Golden Globe nominations, as well as his vision of Oscar. But Adrian always plays Tai Chi with them, either use empty words and clichés to cope, or simply say nothing. Because he has a lot of things to do, such as attending movie premieres.

"Hey, Sandy, how have you been recently, your look looks good."

"Wow, beautiful Ms. Pullman, you are getting more and more beautiful, which is really amazing."

"I’m so happy to see you, Mr. Drew, oh, don’t mention that golf, it’s so miserable."

Through the bustling crowd, Adrian came to the center of the front hall of the theater while greeting people they knew. The reason why there is such a big situation and so many guests is because the upcoming movie is the "Jurassic Park" that has invested more than 60 million and produced more than a year.

After seeing the samples, Universal, which paid a third of the funds and was responsible for distribution, immediately decided to hold a large-scale premiere for publicity, so now it is the situation.

"It’s a shame that you weren’t there at the time, Ed, they were breathless when the long-necked dragon first appeared, but they became stunned immediately after the appearance of the Tyrannosaurus Rex." The young man said with a frown, he has a circle of light-colored beard, his hair is fluffy but not messy, his eyebrows are thick and thick, his eyes are always squinted into a line, if he stays calm, it will be very majestic, but once he laughs, It's a little cute.

"You really shouldn't say this to me, George, I have begun to regret it." The Adrian's annoyed look, suddenly made the middle-aged man laugh.

This middle-aged man directed "Star Wars" and founded the famous industrial light and magic. The famous George Lucas Spielberg completed the shooting of "Jurassic Park" and will After the later work was basically planned, it was handed over to his friend Lucas, and then found Adrian to prepare "Schindler's List" and soon traveled to Poland.

Even now, it will be Christmas soon, he still stays in Krakow to shoot, so Lucas, who is responsible for most of the post-production, replaced him at the film premiere.

"It doesn't matter, it's going to premiere soon, you'll see it soon." Lucas haha ​​patted his shoulder with a smile.

"You know, George, I have heard many people say that you are a very serious and unsmiling person, but when I saw it today, I learned that those rumors are not reliable," Adrian said.

"Actually, in a sense, these statements are also true. I am really strict at work, but usually it is too boring." Lucas shrugged and looked at him. Changed the topic: "Let me talk about you, Ed, how are you feeling recently? You are the most watched director in Hollywood now, what does the media say about you? Even..."

"Don’t mention this, George," Adrian smiled bitterly. "I am now thinking about what kind of theme to make in the next movie, so as to supplement the current overdraft."

"Are you going to worry about this too?" Lucas laughed and followed his thoughts with a look of interest. "Why, do you have any new ideas? You have to start making crazy new ones." Movie?"

"No, no, although there are new ideas, but at least I have to rest for a few months. I don’t plan to do anything like this year." Adrian shook his head and then led the topic elsewhere: " By the way, George, you really don’t plan to make a sequel to "Star Wars"? If you don’t consider the sequel, what about the prequel? You can’t disappoint us all the time."

The two kept talking on the subject, and Lucas seemed very happy with the traceless compliments of Adrian. After talking for about ten more minutes, he was ready to leave, but Lucas patted him on the shoulder again, saying without a foreword: "Thank you, Ed, you did very well."

Adrian was stunned, but after watching Lucas's sincere appearance, he reacted quickly, and humorously chuckled: "This is nothing, and what he did should be commendable. ."

"Don’t be so humble, Ed, Steven told me everything you did, no one can do better than you. He has been running for this movie, as an old friend, I am very I’m glad someone can help him fulfill his wish.” Lucas said seriously, “If it’s not the premiere, I’ll ask you to have a drink and thank you.”

"There will be a chance," Adrian said, remembering something. "Although I have been busy with my own affairs, I have always paid attention to Poland, and the staff there said that Steven’s mental state does not seem to be. Great."

"Yes," Lucas confirmed his statement, "When I talked to him on the phone, his voice sounded weak. It's not surprising, just think about going through the tragedy again through the camera. It will make people chill, but for Steven, it is an exhausting torment."

"I can imagine," Adrian nodded sympathetically, "So, after Christmas and New Year, we may be able to go to Poland to see him together."

Lucas felt his chin for a few seconds, then nodded: "This is a good proposal, I will consider it."

"So let's do that," Adrian made a gesture to leave, "I'll contact you later when I have time."

"Okay, just call me if you need it." Lucas waved his hand with a smile.

George Lucas. Adrian who walked into the crowd was nagging the name, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Is this the first benefit of investing in Schindler's List? Of course, in the future there will be a good relationship with industrial light and magic, and even after entering the 21st century, industrial light and magic is the largest special effects base in Hollywood. Although Lucas's directorial works are not many, he has built up a huge network of contacts, not to mention that he is also Jewish.

Gently shook his head, Adrian turned his attention around to find the figure of Cate. Because they didn't want to be caught by reporters and asked them, they entered the front hall of the theater through the side door. After they found Lucas and talked with Adrian, they felt that they couldn't get in the mouth and left Cate first.

"There are so many people~IndoMTL.com~ Looking at the bustling crowd in the front hall, Adrian sighed helplessly. In this case, it is not easy to find Cate, but he is still working hard Is looking for, because Monica is also coming to the premiere, and when talking to Lucas before, he clearly saw Cate and Monica walk together not far away.

Adrian is not worried about any conflict between them. Monica will attend the premiere of "Jurassic Park" precisely because he personally called to invite and implied in his speech not to refuse. Therefore, Adrian wants to know more about the conflict between informed Monica and uninformed Cate.

He is not worried at all, anyway, Cate will know sooner or later. Moreover, this is a small experiment.

Unfortunately, there are too many people in the lobby. Universal seems to be eager to bring in celebrities from all over Hollywood. There are several producers who are familiar with them all the way, not to mention those who have had some experience. The director and actor of Zhiyuan, just say hello and greet him, and he will dry his mouth.

"You guys really run, where did you go?" Adrian came to a column and stopped before and after looking around, shrugging funnyly. Then, a warm body crashed into his arms. ()
