King of Hollywood Chapter 310: Approaching
“Every Thanksgiving Day, I’m thinking about how to arrange it to get something new, which is not an easy thing, especially when there are more and more family members. However, in general, this Thanksgiving is very good for a few years, so I am quite qualified, right?" Just as Adrian was chattering, a sharp razor hit his throat.
"Shut up, Ed, if you talk again, I will swipe horizontally." Cate posted below him said severely.
Adrian immediately lost his voice, and raised his hands to show his agreement. Then, Cate kneeling in front of him shrank slightly, and carefully shaved off the white foam on his chin again.
"Very refreshing, your technique is still so good, Cate," shaved Adrian rubbed his chin in the mirror, "but... I don't think it's necessary to keep this old-fashioned shave anymore. Knife, of course, I don’t mean to change the electric, but the short handle may also be a good idea."
"Come on, Ed, you know I won’t really cut it off," said Cate, who was washing the razor next to him, teasingly said, "Although sometimes I do have such thoughts."
"Okay, then should I thank Princess Anna or Goddess Selena and Miss Crawford for their unkillable grace?" Adrian laughed and hugged Cate from behind, with a shaved chin on her back neck Rub on the rub.
Cate rolled his eyes and turned to pull his collar: "You know, Ed, with your action, I can sue you for sexual harassment."
"Oh?" Adrian opened his eyes wide, "Are you sure? You need to know..."
"But we are not married," Cate sneered, "In order to play good Josie, I not only read her experience repeatedly, but also learned about the relevant legal provisions of sexual harassment. In addition, now the definition of sexual harassment is the most The first ones are more detailed."
"Okay, okay." Adrian had to raise his hands again to cooperate. There is nothing to satisfy her little sense of superiority.
"Go on, if it's too long, they will think I'm stealing." Cate said he grinded his teeth and walked out immediately, but stopped a few steps later and turned back, reaching for Adrian's face Take a closer look.
"I think you can try to accumulate hu, maybe it will make you a little more sexy." she said.
Rubbing his chin. Adrian nodded: "Can be considered."
Getting downstairs, there is a lively scene in the living room. Lily takes Dava and Juliet to run around, and Eleanor follows behind without knowing what she is waving and giggling. Her 1 year old Mary sat on the ground with her mouth pouting and no one was happy. No one cares. Patricia and Aibo are crying, Evelyn sleeps soundly, even in this environment, Kelly was not there, and was probably taken away by her mother to breastfeed.
And the respective mothers. Better things like Sophie, Monica or Blanchett, just chat on the side. The little guys leave it to the babysitter and the maid to take care of them, and only need to catch them and say a few words. It’s worse like Jessica, Julia and Gwyneth, who have to spend time to coax their children . Not only that, but accidents happen from time to time, such as something being knocked down and something broken. A little guy wrestled, a little guy bumped into someone, etc. If there weren’t a lot of babysitters and the maid was there, the house would definitely be messed up.
Even so, it’s not easy to be relaxed. The children are coming, the mothers are not going to come, and Charlize, Sarah, Ivanka plus Yukie live here, so... In short, even whoever gets the first slice of turkey cut from Ed, it may lead to a silent confrontation, especially this year even the big-bellied Nicole and Naomi came.
This is the Thanksgiving Day of the Kewell family. It is noisy and noisy, and there is endless fighting, and it will be so again at Christmas. Sometimes it is really a bit of self-satisfaction, but Adrian has never wanted to cancel it. .
"I don't deny it, but this is family life, understand?" Adrian said by touching Lily's head who was already in bed and ready to sleep.
"But, you are not married to your mother, nor to your aunts." Lily made a grimace directly, "So the guys in school often take this joke with me."
"Oh?" Adrian raised an eyebrow, "Who is laughing at you?"
"Don't worry," Lily waved indifferently. "Since I punched a guy, this kind of speech has disappeared. Of course, I guarantee that even if the teacher knows it, it will only Stand by me."
"Okay, my daughter is worthy, but now, there is only one thing you have to do, that is to sleep!" I pinched a hand on my daughter's cheek, then put a quilt on her and closed the bed. The headlights kissed her forehead again as before and said good night before leaving the bedroom.
Yes, family life, that’s why Adrian takes the risk of holding a monthly gathering between mothers and pulling them down together on important festivals. However, even family life can't stop some things, and it can even be said to help.
"What you want is ready." After coming out of Lily's bedroom, Yu Jihui, who had been waiting outside, bowed.
"Very good," Adrian nodded. "When the little guys are asleep, I'll pass."
Then he thought about what looked at Yu Jihui, smiled and let her turn around in front of herself, and finally slap: "I changed my mind, Yu Jihui, relatively speaking, 2D animation is still somewhat Too misty, so I need you to play Xia in A, is it okay? Don’t tell me that there are no props, don’t think I don’t know if you have bought it.”
"So, is it Xia in love, or Xia in prison?" Yu Jihui smiled softly after she was surprised.
Adrian did not speak, just looked at her meaningfully, Yu Jihui waited a few minutes, and then bowed again: "I know, I will prepare for this."
She is always so intimate and discerning, so whenever the women fought in secret at the party, Adrian will live with her and play with some tricks. At this point, the women are also acquiesced. From the beginning, Ji Hui has always looked like a low eyebrow, never offended anyone; second, she is the only Asian here, Adrian stayed with her at least overnight Achieved superficial fairness.
Not to mention the things at home, so in 2005 it came to an end, without the competition of the media. The major movie companies were relieved and distributed to many box offices. Rao is so, even if the animation format of the opening and ending of the movie "Magic" released after Thanksgiving Day still achieved a good box office, Liv Tyler was once again praised or criticized by the critics as a vase.
"Just like that, Liv Tyler, continue to work, the princess career is very suitable for you." Some people ridiculed.
Other than that. There is also a new Disney film that is barely related to Adrian, which is adapted from the British writer Lewis' "The Legend of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe". The earliest aim of this series of novels was Robert Shea of the new line. Although the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy was not available, the new line was fully improved under the care of Adrian.
But that doesn’t satisfy Shay. Which company’s head doesn’t want to make more and more profitable movies? Especially seeing that Miramax, also a media subsidiary, grabbed huge profits on "Pirates of the Caribbean", Shay couldn't stand it any more. This time he didn't fancy the "Golden Compass", this time he was fancy "The Legend of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe".
However, this kind of thing usually greets the above, so Adrian came forward and pressed it down. Then recommended to Denis and made a small deal.
"It is undeniable that Lewis’ series of novels is very good. But it is not suitable for supporting movies-or completely adapted into movies. You are very visionary, Robert, "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" is a good choice As long as the movie reaches the usual level of Hollywood, the box office is not a problem. The real problem is that the next one is a little careless. If you deviate a little, the next movie will fail. This is my judgment. This series is between each other. The connection is relatively less." Adrian explained in the face of Shay, who was angry but not easy to attack.
Then he gave each other a sweet date: "Okay, Robert, I know your thoughts. I can give you a series. In the next year, the cost is not high, but the return will be amazing. If it works properly, Words."
Shay heard what he said, and nodded after struggling for a few minutes: "I will follow up."
Because of the attention of Adrian, a series of novels has been officially published in the second half of this year through its publishing company. If the situation is good, it is not a problem to start preparing for the film next year. It just happens that the new line needs a series of movies, and Adrian also intends to give them one. This is a series that is not high in investment but returns a lot.
However, there will be no pie in the sky. This dog-blooded series of movies wants a high box office. In addition to attracting a large number of young people who love fantasy, it also requires a lot of business operations. Therefore, Adrian must send representatives to follow up, in order to remind a few key points, by the way, to intervene in the internal affairs of the new line.
After all, although the media acquired the new line, Shay still has some shares in his hands, and because the original agreement has been sitting in the position, the new line always has a semi-independent taste. Therefore, even though Shay has always been honest and hardworking, the media has not given up the idea of controlling the new line, and this time is a good opportunity.
Xie Yi also understands this. Although he is reluctant, the media has always been well-formed and basically fair in terms of film resources. He has also seen the development in recent years, so he will say "I "I will follow up." As long as Adrian is not excessive, he will probably open his eyes and close his eyes.
It’s just passed in 2005. Although many filmmakers are happy that there is no media competition, they will soon be unable to laugh, because at the end of December, there are several movies for the impact of Okuska Performed a screening, such as Paul Haggis's "Tiantian Tower". This movie is very similar in technique and editing to "Crash", which he won the best movie last year, so that some film critics laughed at it, thinking that he had no innovative ability at all, but upgraded the scope of the story from Los Angeles to full. The world, but most people still give a good evaluation.
"Maybe when you watch it, Haggis will forcefully put these coincidences together, but there is no doubt that they are all helpless portrayals of human beings in trouble. The whole movie is both repressive and There is a flash point, and the Dennis Knight and Jennifer Aniston couples also presented the best performances ever. Haggis is worth another small gold man." Some people praised it.
It is true that Adrian was watched in a special screening room shortly after the completion of the Hagis version of "Tongtian Tower". Although the cut shots have little to do with the original, as in "Cup Wine Life", Haggis shows the story with his own methods. The mastery of the plot is also more complete than that of "Crash", and the expression of the theme is not lost to the original version.
It is worth mentioning that although the plot in Japan has been modified, Ji Hui can play quite well, especially because the deaf can’t keep up with the rhythm when dancing, and finally let another woman hook him up easily After the snatch, the loss and resentment with a tendency to self-destruct was passed to the audience quite strongly.
Unfortunately this is the United States. The critics' attention is on the Dennis and Aniston couples. They also performed very well. Compared with "The Smiths", this kind of feeling is particularly obvious, so Yu Jihui was ignored. But it does not matter, anyway, the purpose of Adrian has been achieved, what's next...
Haggis could have been the last topic in 5 years. If it wasn’t for another movie, it’s true, directed by Adrian. Natalie is the absolute protagonist of "Out of Control".
The publicity of this movie is not high, and the trailer was released after the middle of December. At this time everyone was busy preparing for Christmas, and "Tongtian Tower" had large posters posted everywhere two months ago. Rao is so, still attracted a lot of attention for the first time, who let the director and producer of the film be the famous miracle director? At this time, the aura brought by "The Pianist" and the criticism of European filmmakers continues to shine, not to mention the starring Natalie Portman.
"This is an indescribable, atypical work of the director of Marvel. It is not uncommon for Adrian to be entirely a female protagonist. In "The Devil's Head" after Jean Gwyneth sealed it, he I’ve tried it-frankly, I always think this is one of the worst works of Director Miracle. But it’s the first time that a single heroine is used in the thriller suspense type. No surprise, Adrian continues his The precise grasp of the plot and the shots, except for a slight delay in the first ten minutes and thirty to forty minutes, the whole is basically compact, there are not too many gorgeous shots, the suspense is revealed at the last moment, it makes people sigh.
Natalie’s performance was also unexpectedly exciting. Here, she couldn’t see the passion and enthusiasm as Joan Carter. She was just a poor girl who was hurt and sinking into her chaotic inner world. She is so devoted that she almost blends in with her role and deserves everyone's applause. Perhaps, she can achieve even higher achievements. "
——"New York Wa Times" Richard? Hansen
Good reviews are indispensable. Despite being a semi-original script, Adrian has accumulated countless experiences after all, and has been conceived for a long time, so it maintains an average overall level. And Natalie is almost her portrayal because of most of the characteristics of this character, plus the Adrian's training in the shooting, which has played a 150% level. It is strange that there is no praise.
However, although the critics I’ve seen have given positive comments, the focus of more people is on the other hand. It’s not the guys who yelled, “You can guess the ending when you see the beginning”, their The eyes are on the heroine.
"Unsurprisingly, Adrian will always launch another movie at the end of the year, and at least one actress will have a wonderful show in it."
"Natalie's performance is indeed very exciting, Adrian once again let her exert her extraordinary strength."
"This is the third time Natalie Portman has cooperated with Adrian, and it is also a minority among Miracle Girls."
Funny, teasing, envy, jealousy, gritted teeth, etc., directed by Miracle Director, the wonderful performance of the heroine, and the record of the past few years, enough to illustrate what idea Adrian is playing~IndoMTL.com~ This is ridiculous! Who does he think he is? Does he really think that the film school listens to him alone? ! Many people think in their hearts either in anger or hatred or jealousy.
But when I think about it, when I get to the reality, I can't help but feel a little downcast. There have been similar things more than once or twice, and every time he looks like he can't succeed, but every time he laughs to the end. If nothing else, look at the theme of the "Pianist" he launched in Cannes this year, this year is the anniversary of the victory of World War II, and how he has shaped his image afterwards, maybe the chance is less than 100%, but this is the case What is the difference between lower and 100%?
However, Adrian does not have much pride in this. He already has enough confidence in the result of "The Pianist", but for another item, there is still work to be done.
But he is not in a hurry, anyway, "Out of Control" has not been officially released yet, so after explaining the matter, he spent the New Year leisurely and took his daughters to New York to visit his uncle as usual. Of course, reprimands are also indispensable, and the daughters seem to like to see their father reprimanded, and the uncle seems to be aware of this. After the first comment about the official matter, he began to take accent and tone, and this time, led by Lily A bunch of little guys came around and smiled at Daddy's coping.
Always maintain his aunt, and say nothing at this time, even teasing with a smile: "This is nothing, Ed, you know, your uncle loves you."
"Yes, I know." At this time, Adrian could only work hard to squeeze out a smile.
