People from several companies gathered in the lounge to discuss the preparation of Jurassic Park. "Captain Hook" has basically been produced and is just waiting for release. Spielberg also took a break and got confirmation from his old friend Lucas. It is not technically difficult to make realistic CG dinosaurs with a computer. In addition, the appearance of "T-1000" shocked many people, so "Jurassic Park" was put on the agenda.
It is now that the leaders of all parties have to participate in the premiere of "Shawshank's Redemption", and simply talk at the premiere without appointment time-of course, Adrian's commitment is also the driving force of Spielberg one.
Although Adrian was invited to the lounge to participate in the discussion, more often he played the role of listener. Because of the previous agreement, Spielberg was both director and producer, so he had almost everything to do with the crew. As a screenwriter, Adrian only needs to answer his questions at any time.
"I don't agree with you, Steven. I admit that if you replace the match with Velociraptor at the end according to your idea, it will give you a very strong sense of tension and excitement, but you ignore the Tyrannosaurus Rex. The body shape gives people a sense of oppression and shock. Think about it, the tyrannosaurus that chased the protagonists has been extremely hard but was instantly killed by the tyrannosaurus rex, this huge contrast has no less impact on the audience than the tyrannosaurus rex Is n’t it?
Adrian responded when Spielberg offered to modify the play at the end. Although all the power was given to him, it did not mean that he had to obey him. Who better than Adrian knows how to make this movie to make money?
Spielberg accepted the idea after considering it for a while, then turned around and talked to his assistant about the protagonist's candidate. It sounded like it was going to invite Harrison Ford and Juliet Binos to act as the main characters.
Adrian shook his head and intervened in a few words: "I can recommend a few candidates about the main characters. Sam Neal and Laura Dunn can play Grant and Sadler, respectively. Jeff Goblen plays Malcolm, and Sir Richard Attenborough can play Hammond. "
Spielberg's idea is good but unrealistic, even if there is no future memory, Adrian knows this. "Jurassic Park" is a group show from beginning to end. There is no special protagonist. How can Harrison Ford, already a front-line star in Hollywood, pick up? Even if he has a good relationship with Spielberg. As for Juliet Binos, how many commercials has this French actress performed?
"Sir Richard Attenborough?" Spielberg was a little surprised.
"I know, he has never acted in a movie, but there will be a first time in everything, isn't it?" Adrian waved and said, "Well, I'm just making suggestions, how to consider that is you Things. "
Spielberg nodded and said that he would consider his opinions, and then discussed with the person in charge of Universal. More than an hour passed quickly, the movie was about to end and the main things were basically settled, and everyone in the lounge immediately ended the discussion and got up and left. But Adrian was stopped by Spielberg when he left.
"Conservatively estimates that it may take 4 months or more to prepare in the early stage. You know, we cannot replace all the lenses with computer CG, the necessary models are still to be produced. And we need to find a few paleontologists for guidance. , We want to shoot them as animals instead of monsters. Therefore, I am afraid that the official start will not go until March next year. "Spielberg said to him.
"It's okay. It's up to you. I have enough patience." Adrian waved and he knew what the other person really wanted to say. "You rest assured, Steven, I promised you- Or so, even if the box office lost money, I still took out 20 million investment in "Schindler's List", what do you think? "
Spielberg froze immediately. The reason why he said these words to Adrian, in addition to implying that he takes a lot of time to be patient with the production of this film, but also wanted to remind you of the good things that were said, after all It's just an oral agreement. Unexpectedly, he was surprised to get such an answer.
"That's it." Adrian waited for him to talk, patted his arm with a smile and went out.
"Schindler's List" must be won anyway, although there have been many movies about the Holocaust after World War II, whether it is "The Diary of Anne" in the 1970s or "Life of Beauty" , Does not have the advantage of "Schindler's List", that is to have entertainment attributes! With this, it means that it can spread more widely!
But no matter what, there is still a while, wait for Spielberg to finish "Jurassic Park" before talking. Adrian was thinking about walking to the front hall, and now there was one more important thing to do. The film is about to end soon, and naturally the press conference is next. Those guys are not so easy to get rid of.
This is indeed the case. Although Robbins and Freeman as the starring characters attracted attention, the reporters aimed the gun at Adrian after a few questions.
"Mr. Adrian, remember that you said before that this is a perfect movie. Although I think the movie is really brilliant, and even everyone applauded for Andy looking up at the sky in the rain, but I still feel that there is no lack of perfection. Distance ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Do you still insist on this statement? "A reporter asked.
"First of all, I want to correct one point. My wording is: near perfection. This and perfection are two concepts, and I think everyone should know that there is no perfect thing in this world-of course, this does not prevent us from pursuing Perfect. Secondly, if you carefully analyze those relatively light reports, you will find that the approximate perfection in my mouth refers to the process that has been suppressed and then unleashed freely. The gentleman just made perfect. Having said that, he also applauded for Andy's escape, didn't he? "Adrian said casually.
Because the phrase "approximately perfect" has been misinterpreted, this period has not been accused of being too arrogant. Although some small and medium-sized newspapers are making noises in order to win the attention of the eyes, Adrian still dares not care, and self-bragged depends on the situation.
"I noticed that the word 'institutionalization' appeared in the film several times, and the most important supporting role, Brooks, committed suicide because of institutionalization. Excuse me, Mr. Adrian, do you want to use this as a metaphor?" Another The reporter asked.
"I just want to say that everyone suffers more or less in their lives and it is difficult to accept change after a long stay in an environment. At this time we should all break free from the constraints and fly freely like birds." Adrian simply replied, "The longing for freedom is the core of the whole movie."
Although he continued to answer each other's questions, Adrian's mind was involuntarily turned to something else. He hadn't watched the movie before, and he didn't know what the audience's reaction would be.
(I was criticized for having too many early layouts, depressed, and one more at night, please recommend for collection !!!)
