Chapter 339: This is a great movie!

The large screenings of the seats in the Shenlan Theater, and the vast and sad soundtrack, the big screen rolled up the cast of staff, and a burst of applause suddenly sounded. The audience who participated in the screening gave the praise to the "Mr. Hughes 2" crew, This is really a classic biographical movie! "Hughes: Secret Life", which was released in the Christmas file for 2 years, cost US $ 10,000 and finally received 160 million global box offices. It tells the first half of the legendary tycoon Howard's five and ten years; and "Citizen Hughes: Power, The production cost of "Money and Madness" rose to 100 million, and the story continues to Howard Hughes' mad life after he was away from public view in his old age. He locked himself in a dark room every day and cut his head and nails once a year. Drug addiction, cleanliness, and obsessive-compulsive disorder such as cocaine have reached morbidity ...
These are just small details. "Mr. Hughes 1" clarifies the formation of the twist of Hugh ... Hughes xìng lattice, and the pain in the heart; "Mr. Hughes 2" really ushered in the explosion, Christopher Nolan, Jonathan ... Lan adapted the biography by Michael Naosin to be dark and unique, and made a comprehensive discussion of the relationship between genius, power, money, and madness. The 126-minute video has Hughes ’crazy past, Kim ... Kerry's superb performance and director's profound views.
"Chris, it's very exciting." Just like the previous work, after the screening was over, "Mr. Hughes' robbery crew creators, guests and friends came to the nearby hotel to hold a gala dinner. The lively banquet hall cheered and laughed. Everyone or Joking around, or tasting the rich food and drinks on the table.
Unlike the recently popular idol director couple, Christopher Nolan and Emma ... Thomas' dress is very imposing, Nolan is still in a suit and grass, combing sideways, smiling and two years ago, four years ago There is no big difference; Emma Thomas is wearing a dark blue dress with low ng, still so talkative and enthusiastic, smiling and watching Wang Yangxu punch his husband: "Remember what I said? Do you have confidence, I have confidence. "
"Thank you." Nolan nodded his head. A few years ago, he talked about "The Fragment of Memory" at the Red Rock Theater in Park City and finalized "Mr. Hughes" as a guest. Although everyone has not been busy with each other, they have not been close. The words come from the heart, so "compliment" is not difficult at all, he smiled and said: "In the past few years, it has been really pleasant to cooperate with the flame movie." Emma Thomas also slammed the ng mouth, and thanked with laughter: "Yang, very much Thank you for your support. Sometimes we talk about this ... "
She looked at Nolan and continued to laugh: "I don't know how to express our gratitude. You know you are too generous."
The cost budget for "Mr. Hughes 2" was initially 10,000, and the result was finally fixed at 100 million, out of 10,000. One of the biggest features of the Hollywood production system is careful budgeting, which is also one of the reasons why the preparation time of a film is longer than that of the production. Each cost is subject to strict review and control. The motto of the producer is to save money and It ’s not squandering, the filmmakers do n’t care what they do to improve, otherwise every movie costs, what is the system? Know that Wan is enough to make another low-cost movie and 2-3 small-cost independent movies.
Therefore, Jinglou means to do the best within this 10,000. If there is a better one, it will eventually save 10,000 and the cost will become 10,000.
The producer who cannot control the budget is a failed producer, especially Christopher Nolan is not a privileged director, and Emma Thomas is not a privileged producer. However, when "Mr. Hughes 2" lost control and wanted to pursue another kind of excellence, the flame film agreed without saying anything. Maybe some, Wang Yang said "not enough!" Pride, flames will not make you blind, detailed accounts need to ensure that every money is spent on film production.
Considering the mediocre business performance of "Mr. Hughes 1" and "Hughes 2" can get this kind of treatment, Christopher ... Nolan's life is indeed very happy.
"When we get a sum of money, we have an obligation to earn back for the filmmaker; but Flame is not an ordinary filmmaker at all, I don't know how to say it, it's just too handsome." Emma Thomas said with a laugh, Nolan , Wang Yang and others could n’t help but smile, Emma smiled and looked at her husband:
Then we thought, the best thing we can do is to make the movie! For the trust of the flame movie, it ’s also for ourselves, if ever We will be nominated for the Golden Globe Awards in a few days, and we will be happy to die. "
Listening to others praise her husband so much, Jessica Qiao, who is holding his arms, really feels ecstatic, and also admire Emma a little ... Thomas, while being a good wife who has children in this life, is also Producer who manages everything for her husband is amazing! Jessica could not help but glanced at Wang Yang, his face with a smooth smile: "Trust me, these are really no big deal, I need to thank you for bringing these two films" Mr. Hughes "."
"Okay, don't say anything to thank you." Wang Yang took a glass of red wine from the tray of passersby and sipped it. , And asked with interest: "So is there any new work plan? We are interested in shooting" Green Hornet ", but you definitely don't want to direct, and it is not very suitable, comedy action film."
Just now he asked Kim Il-Kerry, who was also at the dinner, what he meant by "Green Hornet". The comedy king said he and his agent still need to consider it because it is a bold comedy idea. Wang Yang knows that Kim Il-Kerry is looking forward to the recognition of his acting career when he is looking forward to the mainstream awards. If "Mr. Hughes 2" can provide an Oscar nomination for the best male actor, to complete his dream for many years, he may readily agree to flame The movie starred in "Green Hornet".
"Comedy? That really doesn't work for me." Nolan shook his head slightly and refused without thinking. He didn't think he had too many humorous cells. Guanma Yi Thomas smiled and took the lead to say: "He and Jonathan do have a new plan about adapting Christopher-Priest's novel" Fatal Magic "..." She was about to introduce the novel, Wang Young said that knowing "Fatal Magic", it is not surprising that the 61-year-old Englishman Christopher Priest is a famous science fiction novelist. One of his representative works, "Fatal Magic" is the winner of the 96th World Award.
This saves Emma ... Thomas has a lot of time, she said: "We are preparing to find investment for this project, contact Christopher Priest to obtain the adaptation copyright, and then make a film with a production cost of about 10,000."
Christopher ... Prest's "Fatal Magic" was inspired by the historical facts of Cheng Liansu and Zhu Liankui, and also in London in the early Victorian period in the 19th century, the Chinese Cricket illusion was very exaggerated in order to enhance his charm and exoticism. American William Ellsworth ... Robinson kept braids of Qing people and wore Qing Dynasty costumes to impersonate Chinese people. At that time, Europeans did not know what the people of Chinese people looked like. Cheng Liansu never spoke again and hired a " "Translate" to play, and finally became the magic star of the time.
However, this does not lie to Zhu Liankui, a Chinese chalk country magician who shocked the global magic world. It was he who made illusions popular in the United States, Europe, and London, and it also led to the emergence of "Cheng Liansu." After touching it in London ... After a media farce of "True and False Chinese", Zhu Liankui wrote a war to Cheng Liansu: "If Cheng Liansu can change 10 of my 20 tricks, or I can't help it. Change him to anything! I will lose to him a thousand British list of tricks. "It's just that Cheng Liansu, who was guilty, didn't fight.
Cheng Liansu's masterpiece is "The Gun Hits the Living". The audience went to the stage to check and put the bullet into the gun, then shot at him, and he took the bullet and put it on the plate. In fact, of course, the gun has been used for hands and feet. The gunpowder will detonate in a fake barrel below the real barrel, and the bullet will not leave the gun. What if it does? That was a deadly magic. When performing again in 1918, Cheng Liansu was shot by a bullet and shouted the first sentence and the last sentence in English: "Oh my God! Something happened, come down !!"
Maybe it was a murder, maybe it was an accident, and Cheng Liansu died like that.
"Fatal Magic" tells the story of Robert Angel, Alfred-Den, two talented young magicians who have changed from brothers to enemies of life and death, and lead to a tragic story of murder. Wang Yang has watched this film in the future film library in his mind, which is full of Nolan brothers suspense style narrative structure, this structure sometimes affects the core people's exploration poetry, but also makes the film unique. .
"Flame movie!" It is even more neat than "Mr. Hughes". Wang Yang did not hesitate to let the Nolan couple stunned so much. It was quite unexpected. What plan would be met by this? He says""? Wang Yang smiled enthusiastically: "The story of" Fatal Magic "is very interesting, and I like magic very much, and there will be several tricks."
His jokes made Guan Ma ... Thomas whispered, Nolan asked: "Really?" Wang Yang shrugged: "Isn't I called Magic Yang?" He laughed: "That's it! We contacted Christopher Priest got the adaptation right first. "
The Nolan couple is naturally very happy about this, and it seems that they will continue to work happily with Flame Movies for two more years.
"Do you really understand magic? I mean the magic of magic." After another chat, Wang Yang and his wife walked over to the long dining table and saw him nod and say yes, Jessica smiled and asked, "Crap." Why have n’t you seen you change?
Wang Yang looked at him strangely, pressing his voice with his hands gesturing:
I am not changing every day? There is something in me that is only so big, but in my With the help of an assistant, it will become so big again; it can also change a certain place on your body from a plain to a high mountain, and then a cute child comes out! What a wonderful magic. "
The banquet hall was full of people, people around, Jessica looked at him with a stunned face, cheeks like blushes and shame, she seemed to remember something magical, she rolled her eyes hun: "You idiot . "
"Fatal Magic" is still an unknown, and "Mr. Hughes 2" is almost finalized. The two days after the full release of the December issue, the two freshness of rotten tomatoes are obscure, the audience likes to jump, it continues The momentum of the audition field has won unanimous praise from the film critics. Not long ago, the flame movie that was scolded for "The Chainsaw Frightened hún 2" immediately turned a beautiful turnaround battle. David Anson of "News Weekly" praised It said: "This is a great epic about the life of American giant Hughes." ...
December 12th-12th this weekend will soon become a past night. The box office rankings will not be confirmed until the day of the 13th and many people have been woken up in the early morning hours. This year ’s Golden Globe nomination announcement was not broadcast live. The organizer The complete nomination list was just announced to the media.
Some people are happy and some are worried. As a weather vane, the Golden Globe Award will reveal the pattern of the entire award season. Propaganda, gaining praise, etc. are just waiting for this moment to bloom, or withering. In terms of TV awards, the popular drama " "Prison Break" and "The Big Bang Theory" have not been nominated. Many fans of the drama have to scold a few words to cheer the black guys up and cheer; but in the movie awards, they can't find much reason to be happy, although These nominations do not belong to him but belong to the flame film, but also belong to his vision ... "Mr. Hughes 2" was shortlisted for the best film in the plot category, the best actor in the plot category (Kim ... Kerry), and the best director (Christopher) Nolan), best screenwriter (Jonathan-Nolan) four awards; "Crash" nominated the best film in the plot category, best supporting actor (Matt ... Qiulong), best director (dark horse) Five awards: Paul Rongles, Best Screenwriter (Paul ... Haggis) Best Original Song ("In-the-deep").
what happened! ? Many filmmakers who check the list for the first time have to ask, the flame movie has gone 7 nominations at once! The biggest awards in the best drama series "Mr. Hughes 2", "Crash", "Stealing Hearts" (Colombia), "Looking for Dream Island" (Miramax), "Rwanda Hotel" (United States 6 Lionsgate) "Dollar Baby" (Warner Bros.), six nominated Flame films accounted for two of the five best directors and two of the five best screenwriters.
There is no doubt a big victory! The first time there was no magical Yang, but there were so many nominations! Is it necessary for Flame Film to start a full-scale offense in the field of awards outside the box office? Is it something good to be taken by it?
"Damn it!" Many people who participated in the Toronto International Film Festival in the past will scold, "Crash" is a treasure? Actually loved by those judges? I know! I know! Will the movie that Fantastic Young sees be worse? But it was useful to know. At that time, no one thought that "Crash" was a bad movie. However, who dared to fight for the crazy "black hole", and went from the normal market price of 10,000 to the 10,000 buyout fee, God knows Will the nerves that never play cards according to common sense reach ten thousand?
Despite Ghost Record 3, Jon ... Phil Timer still felt a bit regretful, and beat Miracle Young if the price increased to 10,000 ... The Weinstein brothers said angrily "Get away from Disney!" Can't stand these sulking anymore! But having said that, they dare not bid 10,000 ... because looking left and right, the commercial ability of "Crash" is not worth the price, and the result will be known next week.
"Oh! Wow ... seven nominations." In the dimly lit bedroom, Wang Yang, who had just slept for a while, was woken up by his mobile phone. After listening to the report by Mark I. Srant, he looked at Jesse lying in his arms. Card, the blushing mí paste looks very hooky. Tonight, she turned into a more magical magic. She was already exhausted, and he asked again: "Natalie Yitman, Jane ... Kez Is there a nomination for Melik? "Jessica suddenly awoke a lot when she heard the name, bigger than the seven nominations. She blinked distractedly and heard him smile and say," That's great "... I know they are nominated.
Natalie ... Terman received the fourth Golden Globe nomination, Best Supporting Actress ("Steal Heart"); Jane-Kezmelik won the third best original with "Looking for Dream Island" The soundtrack nomination, it is worth mentioning that, following the "Mystery River", the big director Clint ... Eastwood also was shortlisted for the best original soundtrack and the best director with "Million Dollar Baby". ; Meryl-Streep couldn't stop the performance with the "spy network míhún" handwriting, I don't know how many times he was nominated for best supporting actress.
Films such as "The Spring of the Cow Cattle", "Ambush in the Ten Sides", and "Motor's Diary" were shortlisted for the best foreign language film. The hugely controversial "Crucifixion" is no surprise.
"Ok, hard work, bye!" Wang Yang pressed the phone to end the call, dropped his cell phone, shook his fist, and smiled at her: "Did you know?" Why are there no nominations for "Prison Break" and "Big Bang"? She nodded: "I have heard all of them." Clear her mind ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Wang Yang shook her head and shook her cheek: "Smile! Smile!" He dialed a number on his mobile phone with his right hand, so happy It ’s polite to wake up the nominee at the moment, and when he hears Nolan ’s "Hello" ... he laughs: "Hi, Chris! Congratulations!" ...
"Hi, Jonathan, congratulations!", "Hi, Kim, congratulations!", "Hi, Paul, congratulations!" ... Listening to his laughter, Jessica, who was pinching him, couldn't help but laugh By the way, I thought with anticipation in my heart, "Firefly" will let him accept other people's congratulations? She sat up, pulled over a white lace tulle nightdress and put it on, and went to pour a glass of warm water on her throat.
"Hi, Natalie, congratulations! Beautiful blow!" After hearing Wang Yang's energetic laugh, Natalie, who was lying on the netg, rolled and laughed: "Yes, congratulations! You only twice , I've been there four times. "Wang Yang smiled there:" Don't be so arrogant, lower the key! "Natalie's voice lengthened:" Ok-but this is the truth. "Wang Yang smiled:" No matter How to congratulate you! Bye, I continue to congratulate others. "
Wang Yang took the drink from Jessica. And said "Thank you, I dialed another number:" Hi, Jane, congratulations! "...
