Chapter 242: Negotiated


Tim Burton, another ghost director in Hollywood. Born in Burbank, he was close to several major studios in Hollywood, so he was deeply influenced by movies in his childhood. Later, he was admitted to the California Academy of the Arts, and received a Disney scholarship during the semester. He eventually became a Disney animator, so his films are very outstanding in the use of color.
However, because of his autistic childhood and a series of reasons, Burton's films have always been known for being dark and black. No matter what kind of subject matter is in his hands, he cannot leave the frame. But it is interesting that no matter how dark and dark the story is, it will always be warm and warm at the end, which allows him to always achieve a balance between mainstream and non-mainstream, so he can be mainstream while retaining his personality. Partial approval.
Adrian found him this time, wanting him to direct a movie, which is "Broken Head Valley" for Liv Taylor. He looked around in his own mind, and it was easy to find such a movie suitable for Liv. After all, although there are many movies in mind, there is no search engine that matches them.
There is no better a white horse, classically dressed, and pure than Liv. But there is a very serious problem here. The film "Broken Head Valley" is a film by Tim Burton in 1999. His personal style is too strong. It would be difficult to shoot it if someone changed the responsibility. The effect comes.
So after thinking about it, you have to find Burton. The style shown in "Scissor Hand Edward" fully qualified him to direct this film. Only in this way, another question is before us. If Burton is to direct, then the actor will not be a second person other than Johnny Depp. Although the basic relationship between the two is not yet obvious, but Adrian, who has memories of previous lives, is clear.
Well, he doesn't mind Depp playing the leading role, anyway, this is his role, just make sure Liv's leading role. The problem is that Depp didn't catch a cold on him. As for the reason ...
If you insist that Dennis is the protagonist in "Two Great Smoke Guns", then including "Shard of Memory", he has played the lead role in two films directed by Adrian. Coupled with supporting roles in "Redemption of Shawshank" and "Vulgar Fiction", it is not a problem for the media to call him an Adrian actor.
It is a pity that this title will not last for a long time. Although Adrian does not mind keeping Dennis in his possession, there are too many and too many films to be produced in his planning, and many characters have already been settled earlier. Not every fit. But this is nothing, Adrian has prepared a good partner for him, and can start to run in soon, and before that, the title of director's actor of Miracle Director will continue for some time.
Well, the topic goes back to the beginning. Since it is called the actor, it is self-evident how close it is to the director. Depp is now also called the actor of Burton. Okay, now one is snatched, oh, it should be dating with your ex-girlfriend, and very young and has achieved good results. Recently, a guy who has hit the limelight in a romantic love movie. Close director , Came to want to invite you to play a role, will you give him a good look?
Of course, people ’s reactions are not always the same, but although Depp is thirty years old, even older than Adrian, he is far worse than Adrian in terms of mentality, so he was not cold from the beginning. hot.
"The whole tone is set according to your style. Of course, I am not entirely sure that these are in line with your point of view."
"No, no, these are very creative and I think it's fine."
"Or you can look at the scene graphs in these chapters and ask if you have any questions."
"The setup of the headless knight may be even more weird, but I have to think about it. Your screenwriters have done a good job. I don't know how to choose."
In the box, Adrian and Burton just like you and I talked, Charlize and Depp have been completely marginalized. Oh no, Charlize is still sorting out the data for Adrian, ready to hand it to him, Depp is sitting beside him completely boring, yawning almost made a few times, the marijuana was taken out again Put it back several times.
But he did not show impatience, always sitting quietly waiting, because Burton was still discussing. This is also Adrian's strategy. As long as Burton is settled, it will not be too difficult to convince Depp, after all, he has no direct conflict with him.
"So, what do you think, Tim?" After a long discussion, Adrian stopped and asked, while looking at Depp next to him, "I can give you enough rights, Tim Um, and I think Johnny will definitely be a great actor as long as the film is directed by you. "
"Frankly, this proposal made me feel good." Burton sighed, thinking with his hands together for a few minutes, then looked at Johnny Depp next to him.
"Enough right?" Depp was silent for a few seconds before watching Adrian asking,
"Yes, all rights except the final editing rights." Adrian nodded earnestly, then before Depp raised his eyebrows and wanted to keep asking. Be the first to continue and say: "This is a commercial movie, the investment may be around 50 million, so making money is the primary purpose. Although I appreciate Tim, I do not think he can own the final cut of such a commercial movie right."
Depp frowned, and didn't seem to like Adrian speaking in this tone, but didn't refute anything. He has also been in this circle for almost ten years. Although he still has a somewhat frivolous and unruly style, he also knows the importance of the matter, so he gave Burton a look and recovered his former coldness. Not hot.
"It looks like there are no more problems." Burton laughed, knowing Depp, he knew what that look meant, "Next time we can formally negotiate."
"Okay, then I'll leave. Look at the time. It's my own Halloween." Adrian stood up with a smile, and with Charlize, he was about to go out, and at the same time exchanged with Burton. Wiping eyes.
Yes, everything was arranged by the two together. Adrian contacted Burton a few weeks ago and then talked again by inviting him to the celebration party of "Four Weddings and a Funeral" Some time.
Next, the two started a discussion on the phone. Adrian had already quoted the price early, and Liv had not been concealed.
"I guarantee that she is suitable for this role, and I think my vision is still assured. In fact, this script was originally conceived for her, and after discussing with the screenwriters, I unconsciously moved closer to your style, so In the end they simply combined the two, "Adrian said to Burton.
Burton is much more realistic and calm than Depp, plus he has read Liv's materials from Adrian, and is also very interested in the script, many of which are very appetizing to him-needless to say, Adrian wrote down the idea that originally belonged to him-and also had the other party's promised studio rights, so after thinking about it, he agreed.
But then Burton hit a soft nail when he knocked on Depp sideways. Of course, Burton did not explicitly say that Adrian had a new movie he wanted to direct, but just asked Depp in a joking tone. The director of miracles seemed to want He was invited to take part in the role, but Depp announced that he would not accept even if Adrian paid him 15 million.
Burton naturally didn't go on. He knew better than Depp, Winona and Dennis that he was a bystander at the time, and he comforted Depp many times. After much deliberation, finally, Depp Halloween had the opportunity to host a party in his own club, and invited Adrian to come face to face and discuss it. If there are any problems or contradictions, I can directly talk about it. This is the fastest solution.
As for the results, it goes without saying.
"You are very fond of her, and it took so much effort." After leaving the club, Charlize suddenly said this.
"I have the same heart for you, Charlie." Adrian replied with a smile, although Charlize didn't say the name, he knew exactly what she was talking about. Basically, 90% of things now go through Charlize's hands. She knows many things about him. It can be said that Adrian has been frank with her on the other hand.
Charlize snorted slightly and closed his mouth again, but his face turned red after hearing Adrian's chuckle. Even she heard what she said, how could Adrian not hear it.
"Well, let's go." Adrian sat in the car and started the engine.
To be honest ~ EbookFREE.me ~ If he can, he would like to push the movie "Broken Head Valley" a few years later. You know, he just chose this film. In addition to the heroine's image very well, she can also attract Burton and relax relations with Depp-I have to say that Adrian is somewhat despised on this. Pu, isn't she just a woman? If you don't want to be reconciled, take it back. Since you broke up and you want to anger others, it's not happy at all. What kind of man is this?
Although he thought so, Adrian wouldn't show a half point. After all, they didn't directly conflict, and Depp still had the value of pulling in. As long as this value was controlled by Adrian, he was too lazy to care about them.
This is the difference between the two. Depp is generally a prodigal son, so he can sometimes be careless; and Adrian is more often a businessman, and maximizing benefits is his first choice, so he wo n’t Easily reveal your heart.
Burton's value should not be underestimated, and Adrian also appreciates his director who has a strong own style and allows mainstream society to accept his own work, so that the director knows how to tell a story. It's just that this movie was originally a turnaround of Burton after several failures, and also a work that thoroughly established his status in Hollywood. If you drag it backwards, it will be taken out after he has suffered multiple failures. The effect will be Bigger.
However, the problem is ...
