Chapter 868: high quality

New York, Brooklyn, the crew of "The Infinite Walker" is busy shooting.
The shooting in the morning was over. After lunch, Martin Scorsese sat in a high chair by the window of the restaurant, basking in the bright sunshine that is rare in New York in the afternoon, in a very good mood.
The filming went smoothly. Tom Cruise and Will Smith, who have been despised by their director circle, are not bad at acting.
Although it is a notch worse than the old guys Al Pacino and Robert De Niro at their peak, but compared to the average level of these two men in recent years, it is only high.
Since entering the new century, the two old friends have dared to pick up any bad movies and bad characters, and they have to pay close attention to making money and provide for the elderly. Their performance is not even as good as Tom Cruise and Will in this filming. Smith.
The shooting went smoothly, and Relativity Entertainment also came up with a future prize redemption plan. Martin was naturally in a good mood.
"Director." The assistant came over with a letter at this moment. "There is a letter for you."
Martin Scorsese took it. There was nothing on the envelope except his name, and he asked "Where did it come from?"
"A staff member of Shahai Entertainment asked me to transfer it to you." The assistant replied.
Martin Scorsese waved his hand, motioned him to understand, unhurriedly opened the envelope, and looked at it.
The letter was signed by George Clint, CEO of Sandsea Entertainment, and Ronan Anderson, owner of Relativity Entertainment.
Seeing this, Martin Scorsese took it seriously and read it seriously.
"It turns out to recommend the script." He understood the intention of the letter. "Relativistic entertainment, which has successively hit movies, is constantly looking for new projects."
Martin Scorsese thought about it. He has been busy with the filming of "Infinite Walker" recently. In fact, I haven't read a few scripts, but if I recommend it, it's a trivial matter.
After all, he only needs to say what interesting scripts he has seen recently, and don't care about other things.
Martin Scorsese asked for paper and pen, quickly finished a letter, called the assistant over, "Find an envelope, seal it, and give it to the production manager of Relativity Entertainment, and let him pass it to George Clint Or Ronan Anderson."
What he mentioned in the letter was a script he had seen from a producer in New York, who reportedly had contact with Hollywood stars including Leonardo and Brad Pitt.
Martin Scorsese is not interested in a purely commercial film script, but he thinks that the filming style of relativity entertainment may consider this script valuable.
Martin Scorsese didn't take this little thing to heart. After writing the letter of recommendation, he devoted himself to the shooting of "Infinite Walker".
In Los Angeles, California, Matthew Leonetti, who has served as the director of photography in both "Dawn of the Living Dead" and "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors", received an email.
This is an email from Relativity Entertainment, with the joint signatures of Ronan Anderson and George Clint.
Matthew Leonetti finished reading the email and thought about it.
Because of the shooting of the zombie movie "Dawn of the Living Dead," someone had previously approached him with a zombie movie script to help sell it.
But Matthew Leonetti was too busy some time ago and didn't pay much attention.
Now that I read the email, I can't help but think of it. It seems that the zombie movie script is also very interesting. Unlike "Dawn of the Living Dead", you can feel the joyful atmosphere in the script by just looking at the content of the script.
Matthew Leonetti thought about it carefully, and found a copy of the script in the file cabinet, and simply mailed it to Shahai Entertainment.
The income of the director of photography is not comparable to that of the director. If it can be adopted by Shahai Entertainment, it is also an additional bonus income.
Although not very well-known in the industry, Matthew Leonetti has been engaged in advertising and television film shooting for many years, and he has some vision.
He believes that Relativity Entertainment has recently sold zombie movies one after another, and may continue to choose this type of theme.
John Wilson is a screenwriter and producer from the United Kingdom. He came to Hollywood in the mid-1990s to work hard. His career has been tepid until he joined the "Prison Break" crew as an executive producer a few years ago. Life finally ushered in a turning point.
By the time "Prison Break 2" was preparing to shoot, he was already the production manager of the crew.
The two collaborations with Relativity Entertainment can be regarded as the take-off point of the screenwriter and producer's career, and John Wilson's career has taken a big step forward.
But a producer who has never been the first producer in charge of the crew has never been a qualified producer.
John Wilson hopes to have a production project that truly belongs to him, and he is actively looking for it after the production of "Prison Break 2".
Valuable projects in Hollywood are not easy to find.
There are a lot of new scripts for the newcomers, but John Wilson doesn't want to joke about his hard-working career.
Until some time ago, when he returned to the UK for vacation, he saw a comedy directed by director Paul Albert, and suddenly felt that it was more appropriate to change the content of this film to an American background.
So, an idea jumped out, maybe it could be adapted from this British drama into an American drama?
This idea is good, but copyright is a problem. John Wilson has no ability to buy the copyright, so he can only temporarily suppress the idea, and after purchasing the related TV series DVD, he returned to North America.
As soon as he arrived in Los Angeles, John Wilson received an email from Relativity Entertainment.
This is undoubtedly a good opportunity for him, the opportunity to directly send his ideas to the most powerful person in Relativity Entertainment.
With great expectations, John Wilson wrote a letter eloquently, packaged with the TV series DVD, and sent it to Relativity Entertainment.
Although he did not immediately see Ronan Anderson himself, the recipient of the email stated clearly that these letters of recommendation would definitely be sent to Ronan Anderson himself.
Since the launch of the "Blacklist Project", within a short period of one week, Relativity Entertainment has received more than 20 recommendations from many past collaborators, including such circles as Martin Scorsese and David Fincher. E-mails replies from famous people within.
These are all summarized in Ronan's desk.
Compared with the scripts delivered to Shahai Entertainment and spontaneous door-to-door sales, the scripts or projects recommended by these professionals are undoubtedly a hundred times more reliable.
Ronan temporarily gave up other work at hand and set aside a day to filter recommendations.
Being able to enter the eyes of professionals, making them feel interesting, and at least leaving an impression, the script and project will not be particularly bad.
In view of the relationship between his personal reputation and the type of shooting, Ronan first read David Fincher’s email.
In addition to the letter, David Fincher also mailed Ronan a script directly.
This is the script that David Fincher received this year, and it was sent to him by Samuel Hadida, the producer of the "Resident Evil" series.
After the success of the second part of "Resident Evil", due to issues such as the distribution of interests and creative ideas, Samuel Hadida and Paul Anderson and Milla Jovovich had irreconcilable contradictions, Ronan and the theory of relativity. Entertainment was on the side of Paul Anderson and Milla Jovovich, and Samuel Hadida dropped out of the series.
Samuel Hadida invited David Fincher to be the director, also in order to attract investment in new projects.
After all, David Fincher's reputation is quite useful in Hollywood.
But David Fincher is filming "girls" and the schedule is not suitable.
This script is adapted from the famous black dahlia tragedy in 1947.
To be more precise, it is based on the novel "The True Story of the Black Dahlia Avengers" written by James Airore in 1987.
The Black Dahlia tragedy that year caused a huge sensation in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles police launched the largest investigation and search in history for this case, but this murderer was like "Jack the Ripper" and disappeared from the world.
Ronan vaguely remembered that there was such a movie. The specific situation was basically forgotten. The only thing he remembered was that Scarlett Johansson and Hilary Swank played roles in it.
In an email from David Fincher, he said that he wanted to direct this film at one time, hoping to shoot a 3-hour black and white film...
This kind of thinking, let alone the inappropriate schedule of David Fincher, even if the schedule is appropriate, it is estimated that he will be rejected by the film company.
Ronan shook his head slightly. This is a novel adaptation project. Even the script is available. The copyright...
He sent an email to Connie on the company's internal system, asking Connie to check relevant information.
But a few minutes later, Connie’s reply arrived. "The True Story of the Black Dahlia Avengers" was sold as early as when the novel was just released. The company that bought the film rights back then was Universal Pictures.
It has been almost 20 years since Universal Pictures put the film adaptation on the agenda. Ronan didn't know what to say.
But such a situation is not uncommon in Hollywood.
The script recommended by David Fincher was naturally passed off. Universal Pictures has already started to operate this project. Of course, it will not transfer the copyright to other companies~EbookFREE.me~ Ronan also found a problem , Such a recommendation, there may be a situation, the script and project that can really impress people in the industry may have a home.
The project that has already found the next home has a higher quality rate.
The referrer just leaves a certain impression on the script or the project, and he doesn't care whether it is an individual or which company owns it.
Later, Ronan encountered this situation again.
The horror film script recommended by Gore Wibinski has been bought out by Warner Bros. The Insider recommended by Will Smith is a Universal Pictures project.
This situation cannot be avoided.
On the other hand, it precisely reflects the reliability of the recommendations of the "blacklist plan".
Ronan has seen more than a dozen projects that are meaningless to relativity entertainment, and his eyes are on Martin Scorsese's letters.
