Chapter 526 Trivia About Movies

Since you want to keep it a secret, let's wait until the end to reveal the suspense.

Beckoning to the waiters, Ryan asked them to remove the plates and bring new coffee, and then changed the topic to short films, Nate, you have learned a lot about directing, whether it's books or on set. knowledge, but shooting a short film cannot be done by two people, you need a team.”

That's why I mentioned this to you.

The waiter brought the coffee, and after Natalie signaled Scarlett to add sugar for herself, she continued, I don't think any of this is a problem for you.

Since Attack of the Clones finished filming, she gradually gave up those previous ideas.

Are you very confident?

After adding milk and coffee, Ryan picked up the coffee cup, Where's the money?

I pay out of my own pocket.

After lightly kicking Scarlett who was about to speak under the table, Natalie said what she urgently needed, Ryan, I need an experienced photographer.

An assistant director is also needed.

Although it is only a ten-minute short film, Ryan, Darren Boseman and others have produced it, and it is definitely not an easy job. Nate, it is very hard work to be an actor and director at the same time.

This is the path I chose. Natalie's eyes were extremely firm.

Hey, you guys seem to have ignored me? Scarlett deliberately got off the table in fear, and after attracting the attention of Ryan and Natalie, she muttered, Two strange guys, one who is clearly a student One is clinical psychology, but wants to be a director; the other is obviously a top student at USC Film School, but has no interest in directing.

The best way to deal with a girl in the rebellious period is to ignore her. Ryan took out his mobile phone, dialed Harvey Weinstein's number, and explained the matter briefly. There is no problem with the immediate reply there, and he will take care of all chores. book net

If there is enough time for the production, Natalie can take the short film to participate in the Cannes Film Festival's exhibition. The big fat man did not forget to remind him before hanging up the phone.

I'll ask Nat to contact you. Ryan hung up the phone, then took a napkin, and stretched out his hand to Scarlett, Borrow your lip gloss, Scarlett.

Sent you off.

Scarlett opened the bag, found the lipstick, and put it directly in front of him. Ryan wrote down the contact information of Harvey Weinstein and pushed it to Natalie, Just contact Harvey directly. If If you want to go to Cannes or other film festivals, he can also arrange.

Let's talk about it after the production is over. Natalie knows that her starting point is so high that many people who want to be directors may be envious.

It's a pity that there is only one main character in the short film. Scarlett didn't accept the lipstick that Ryan handed over, and continued to mutter, Otherwise, let Ryan be the actor. Our short film will definitely become a sensation in the United States.

Honey, are you here to pay the 25 million dollars? Natalie couldn't help but glared at her, and Scarlett curled her lips, Then you should sell me.

More and more people are dining in restaurants. Ryan simply led them out, and when they came to the special elevator in the presidential suite, Scarlett suddenly made a proposal.

There's nothing to do when we go back, why don't we go to the movies.

Just finished speaking. She seemed to remember something, stuck out her tongue playfully, and gestured with her hands. She said embarrassingly, I forgot that you two reunited after a long absence.

After finishing speaking, she waved her hand and walked towards another elevator room, I'll go find Pari and Drew, they should be back after finishing the promotion.

The silent night sky is dotted with stars, and what is brighter than the full moon is the neon lights of the Big Apple. Manhattan is a veritable city that never sleeps.

Wearing thick cotton pajamas, Ryan and Natalie sat on wicker chairs in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, drinking hot tea after passion, while looking at the Statue of Liberty at the mouth of the Hudson River.

Manhattan is missing two of its tallest buildings.

After putting away the teacups for the two, Natalie pulled Ryan's arm and gently rested it on his shoulder, Everyone is not used to it, even now.

This will pass. Ryan didn't know what to say, so he stroked her long brown curly hair slowly, The most important thing is that no one among us was hurt.

For these words, Natalie naturally understands that even though so many changes have taken place in the past two years, Ryan treats his friends very well.

I heard that the academy might cancel the awards ceremony. Natalie snatched her curly hair back from Ryan's hands and brought up the Oscar issue. Is it true that the award ceremony will be announced directly instead?

Absolutely impossible. Ryan shook his head directly, The Academy will not compromise on its most influential link.

The September 11 attack also had an impact on the Oscars and its surrounding matters. Some time ago, there were speculations and suggestions that the awards ceremony would be postponed or canceled, but the newly appointed Academy President Pearson publicly stated, The Academy will never do this. , because this is equivalent to declaring to the outside world that terrorism has won'.

Wanting the Oscars to cancel the award ceremony is definitely not something that anti-war activists or some other people can call for.

Just like a brand like Harry Potter, the Oscar Awards Ceremony with a long history has long formed a complete industrial chain, which is related to the interests of a series of people or groups, and it can be canceled wherever it is said to be cancelled.

Besides, how important is the awards ceremony to Hollywood stars?

Even though Hollywood is a place where leftists are concentrated, these stars are smart people. It's one thing to say it, but another thing to do it.

Still, the Oscars could be the most heavily guarded ever.

Based on security considerations, the Academy announced early on that it will increase the reservation restrictions on the seats on the red carpet stand before the awards ceremony. Applicants will be randomly selected and will also be subject to background checks.

Speaking of Oscar, Ryan couldn't help but think of the script he gave Natalie, and asked her a few words.

Natalie sat up straight, smoothed her long curly hair disturbed by Ryan, frowned and said, Ryan, I like that script very much, and I also like the heroine very much. bring what...

She hesitated a little, but said firmly, I want to direct this movie. I know I don't have the ability yet, so I want to wait a few years until I become more mature.

All right.

Holding Natalie's face in his hands, Ryan kissed her forehead forcefully, Then I suggest you do more research on relevant background information.

At the same time, he sighed softly, and asked someone to go to the Screenwriters Association to file for the record when he returned... Well, he also had to publicize the script.

I've already bought some books on this topic. Natalie kissed Ryan back, pulled him up, and walked towards the bedroom together, It's getting late, we should go to bed.

The next morning, Scarlett took Ryan and Natalie to the theater. Of course, the movie she watched was not Princess Diaries starring her, but Charlie's Angels 2, a super production of Flower Films. Yesterday she It was Paris Hilton and Drew Barrymore who came to New York to promote the film.

Demi Moore is getting old. This was the first sentence Scarlett said after she walked out of the theater box. The box office appeal is not as good as before.

Except for The Love of Ghosts, her subsequent films have not been successful at the box office.

Walking into the underground parking lot, Ryan drove the Chevrolet off-road, waited for the two girls to get into the car, and sat in the driver's seat, This movie may make her turn over.

Ryan started the car, left the theater chain, and drove towards a clubhouse of the Hilton family in Long Island. Scarlett and Charlie's three angels made an appointment yesterday to ride horses together.

With the release of Charlie's Angels 2, the three angels naturally became popular again, attracting screams from countless people wherever they went.

This movie landed in North America after the New Year, with a box office of close to 60 million US dollars in the first week, successfully pulling Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone off the top of the box office charts.

However, the staying power of the movie is a bit weaker. It has been released for almost three weeks now, and the box office in North America is worth over 100 million.

Although it is unrealistic to recover costs through the box office, it is not difficult to achieve profitability with various peripherals relying on the huge industrial chain of the publisher Disney.

That's it for this series.

After meeting the three at the racetrack, Ryan and Natalie took a ride together, and while walking slowly, they talked with Drew next to him about the movie, Drew, concentrate all your manpower and material resources On to The Hours.

I know. Drew also wants to play a role in it, and understands the goal of this movie, The preparations are going well, um...

She looked at Natalie, who was leaning in Ryan's arms, and rolled her eyes unobtrusively, We can start the machine when the actors are in place.

Ryan gestured to her to wipe her throat, and Drew deliberately shrugged, flicked the reins, and ran out at a faster speed.

Give me the rein. Natalie snatched the rein from Ryan's hand, turned her head suddenly, and raised her eyebrows, Honey, this horse is under my control, if you don't want to fall, please hold me tight.

Hey, Nat... Ryan quickly moved back, giving way to the stirrups, don't be too fast.

Hmm~

Natalie nodded, and after Ryan hugged her waist, she sped up the horse slightly, I joined the riding club at Harvard, don't worry.

The happy time is always short. When Natalie was about to start school, Ryan personally sent her to Cambridge City. The two hid in that villa. After three full days of lingering, one of them entered Harvard University. campus, and another flew back to Los Angeles.

As the clock ticked and another awards season loomed, the academy held an Oscar nominees lunch on time in the face of threats of terrorism and calls from anti-war activists to cancel the ceremony. To be continued. . ()
