If you want Angela to choose ten unique films from the movies that the world has seen before. "Chumen's World" will definitely be among them. This ironic film is like "The Legend of Forrest Gump". Every time I watch it again, I will feel it. For the first time you may only care about gold. Carey's comedy talent. The second time, he wondered if the people around him were acting. But a few more times you will notice that it contains sharp mockery of the film industry and filmmakers! And a relentless attack on the "media almighty" view! The writer of this movie is this Andrew. Mr. Nicol. In fact, if it wasn't for his failure to convince the producer. Maybe he will still be the director of "The World of Chumen"!
And more interesting. Andrew has a solid foothold in Hollywood with his strength. The first movie to be a producer, director, and screenwriter was "Virtual Idol"!
Although a little surprised. But Angela is no longer a newcomer to the entertainment industry. Still holding an unshakable smile: "Can you talk about your idea. Mr Andrew?"
"Of course." The other nodded. Then he talked: "In my opinion. This Victor in the novel. Director Taransky is a real artist. He has a crazy pursuit of directing a perfect movie. It is exactly this that led to him Unemployed-Hollywood doesn't need perfect movies. They only need benefits-so when the perfect virtual number one appeared in front of him. He used her without hesitation. And he got deeper and deeper! The factor should also be completely retained. But it can be deployed in the film company. For example, let his wife be the manager of the film department ... "
Andrew talked. Angela listened carefully. Although the novel version of "Virtual Idol" is not her completely original work. But still add a lot of things to it. Take, for example, the problem with the film company that Andrew just mentioned. In the original movie. The department manager is the ex-wife of director Victor. But the girl's cold face in order to reflect the interests of the film company. Abandon this slightly warm party.
but. The biggest change is the ending. The ending of the movie version is after the director became a prisoner. Her daughter killed the virus that infected Dummy One. Get this dummy back again. So that his father was acquitted. But Angela completely "killed" the director in the novel. Not only did the court sentence him to life in prison. And everyone spurned him. Including his wife and daughter. Because he killed the national idol!
This is the difference between fiction and film. In most movies. No matter how desperate the content is. At the end, the audience always sees a hint of sunlight. Even cult films. Movies that really go from dark to end have never been in the mainstream. Anyway. 80% of the audience went to the cinema to watch a movie instead of venting it.
But novels are different. This is particularly evident in "I Am a Legend". The ending of the film is very sunny, both in the public and the director's cuts. But most people don't know it in the adapted novel. The heroine committed suicide in the end! So Angela changed the ending. Although the story of "virtual idol" is quite blunt. If let some reasonable parties watch. Will definitely be sprayed for nothing. But in the sense of the story itself. The more absurd the more critical! Well. There is nothing better than people who don't believe their idols are virtual characters. What makes it more ironic that the director Victor who created all of this is betrayed and left behind? So the girl wanted to hear Andrew's thoughts. How does he deal with the ending.
But obviously. Andrew doesn't think this kind of ending is suitable for film. Not only that. He also made some of the sharper bridges in the novel more concealed. It's almost the same as the original. This surprised Angela slightly. But immediately relieved. Her vaguely written Andrew's work after "The World of Chumen" is "Virtual Idol". There have been comments that his work is humorous and witty. But compared to "The World of Chumen." The intensity of criticism has been weakened a lot. Think of this as normal. Anyway, he still lives in the movie world, doesn't he?
And now. Although Angela forgot how the other party became famous. But obviously not now. Nor would it be because of "The World of Chumen." So it is necessary to hide your edge!
"Thank you for your comment. Mr Andrew." Angela applauded gently. "I don't think I have any opinion on that. Mr. Sparrow will talk to you in detail about the specifics.
"Thank you. Miss Angela." Andrew seemed relieved. Seeing that he was very concerned about whether he could get it.
In the mind of the girl. Andrew's idea was basically fine. It was nothing to him. but--
"But. I have a small condition." Angela spoke sharply. "I want to be on any publicity. There won't be my name."
"If ... okay. Can you tell me why?" Andrew frowned slightly. He is a smart man. Otherwise in another spacetime. The satirical effect of "Virtual Idol" is no worse than that of "The World of Chumen". The reason why he came home to buy the right to adapt the novel after knowing that Angela was the author. Do n’t you just want to borrow the girl ’s fame to open yourself up? But if Angela doesn't allow propaganda and sales in her name. So how much does it make sense to do it yourself? Although I really like this story.
The girl laughed at this moment: "I think you misunderstood. Andrew. I mean it very simply. If a film company buys the script. And it is made into a movie. I cannot have my name when advertising-the original You can write a pen name. "
The other side breathed a sigh of relief. Also clear. Angela already knew his mind. Could not help but a little awkward. He coughed, "I think I'm fine. But the movie company ..."
"It doesn't matter. If they call, I'll explain to them." The girl answered quickly. The box office of "Virtual Idol" vaguely remembered in her memory does not seem to be good. She didn't want to be questioned. Even though she was not involved in the adaptation. But I am afraid that the world ’s chaotic media will inevitably continue to speculate. This is annoying; if only the movie company knew. Even if the box office fails. It will only lead to the idea that "It is a pity that it was not adapted by Angela himself." For girls. This will not only help to promote your rights. You can also buy Andrew's favor. No, not to mention that this mind is playing very well.
"So that's it. I'll be lost first." The girl stood up. Nodded to Andrew. Then go outside. At this time, Spello, who was supposed to take over the negotiations, suddenly called her: "Please wait. Angela."
"What's wrong?" The girl turned back.
Sparrow walked over quickly. Then I lowered my voice slightly: "There is an important invitation. I think I should tell you now. That way you will have more time to consider."
"So important to say now? Does Time Magazine want me to be on the cover?" Angela asked jokingly.
Sparrow didn't laugh. Instead, he said very seriously: "Mr. Perlman will perform his first tour of the nation at the Kodak Theater on April 26. He hopes you will be his guest!"
"Izak. Perlman ?! You mean Izak. Mr. Perlman ?! I heard you right. Jack!" Angela was slightly surprised. You know that her intersection with this famous violinist was only limited to the days when the "Schindler's List" was shot in Poland. Although they had a good chat at that time. But wasn't she close enough to invite her as a guest performer?
"That's true. Mr. Perlman's assistant called me in the morning. I also asked him to prove it." Spiro passed a note. "This is Mr. Perlman's phone number. He said you can call if you have questions."
The girl took the note with the phone number. She hasn't been able to turn her head yet. Although she knew that her instrument played well. Even today's daily practice never breaks. Many people praise her. Said she had the level of a prospective master. But she never thought so. Now the violin master Isaac. Perlman actually invited her to be a guest at his first concert. This can not help but feel flattered.
Until returning to the garden. She was still a little dizzy. This was really sudden. Angela couldn't help but want to ask herself: Can you?
At this time. A shrieking cry came from the side into the ear. Turn around and look. Clark and Isabel were walking crookedly on the grass under the leadership of the maid. Although both of them are about to turn 2 years old. But the small arms and calves are not enough for them to fully support their bodies. But I will say a few words.
Probably felt the eyes of my sister. The two little guys turned their heads by accident. Then shouted happily. Struggling to go to her side.
"Hey. You two. Think of me like that?" Angela put the question aside for the time being. Smiled and walked over. First hug my sister. He kissed on the pink face. The little guy waved straight for joy. Open your mouth and say something you don't understand. Clark next to him was unhappy. He thought his sister was partial. Immediately as soon as his face collapsed, he would cry out.
"Hey hey. Crow. I didn't say no to you!" The girl hurried. Quickly squat down. Embrace my brother. Then just like usual. With the help of a maid. Hold the two little ones one by one. Then sit down on the chair under the parasol. Let them rest on their bodies.
Only in this way can the brother and sister feel fair. No longer noisy. But then they started to toss on their sister very well. Like grabbing sister's hair by hand. Or wipe saliva on your sister's clothes or face. It would be better if there was dripping into the sister's neckline.
Angela also made trouble for them. After all they are their brother and sister. She was a single child in previous lives. It is impossible to have a brother or sister.
"It would be nice if you were in New York now." The girl played with the two little guys on her body. He sighed and said. "Maybe I can rely on you to make up with Natalie."
The little ones didn't understand. Glittering eyes looked at her. Just shouting. Can occasionally say a word. For example, Isabel called: "Fiddle!"
"Have you learned the word? That's not bad for my education." Angela said with a smile. Suddenly my heart moved. A few seconds later she kissed her sister fiercely: "Awesome. Isa. I love you!"
My brother is about to protest. Angela took another sip from his face immediately. Then gave the two little guys to the maid. Follow the tempestuous looking house. The word Isabel reminded her. She's going to call Perlman now. If you can determine a few things. Maybe she can save Natalie's heart! 2k novel reading network
