Chicago 1990

Chapter 760: Editing Room

Why are everyone fooled by the male lead?This is because the beautiful era of rapid development before the Vietnam War in the United States was like this. People naturally trust each other, there are many job opportunities, and the society is prosperous. Of course, there is no resistance to fraud.

People unconditionally respect and trust pilots and the professions of doctors and lawyers. It is not snobbery, but a common tradition in society at that time.

Pan Am and hospitals were unprepared against high-IQ fraud, and there were so many management loopholes like sieves. This is not stupid, or the same thing. At that time, the American people and companies didn’t have so many twists and thoughts, they would think of using it. Those loopholes make money.

In the original version of the way of expression, the male protagonist is more like a fish in the water. In addition to giving the audience the omnipotent and refreshing experience of the legendary liar, the simple atmosphere of the entire American society at that time is more nostalgic. This kind of nostalgia Popular with older American white men, the Oscar judges are naturally included.

"By the way, after going to the Da Vinci coloring table, the overall picture of the movie was highlighted. Now this version always feels gray."

Regardless of whether the original version is true to the restoration of that era, Song Ya knows that the kind of treatment is more pleasing to the audience and the Oscar judges. Perhaps the film critics will prefer Ridley Scott's version, but why does he want to compete with the box office and awards? Can't make it?So... let everything return to the successful routine of the original movie.

Apocalypse is still not pitted most of the time.

The editor looked at Linton again.

"What do you think?" Linton looked at Yeremov and the people from Bowei Pictures and discussed in a low voice.

Song Ya knows that he hasn't gained enough respect in a place like the editing room. If he didn't take half of the investment, he would ask the former famous mouth Johnny Carson to take Roy Disney around for a while. Most of the requirements will be violated or even ignored by the editors and Bowei Pictures.

"Well, we think we can."

Fortunately, Linton is currently a little bit brainless to trust himself, especially after watching the film, this is a good sign, "Anyway, let's continue." After Song Yamo waited silently for a few minutes, he ended the discussion and asked the editor assistant to turn the lights on. close.

Just as the editor made the mark to continue playing the material, the door of the room was pushed open, and Harvey Weinstein walked in with a blond stunner in his arm. His brother Bob Weinstein followed behind with a briefcase alone. .

What a high-profile guy, Song Ya recognizes two blonde actresses. One is Ashley Judd who has seen him many times, and the other seems to be Mira Sorvino?I heard that she just starred in the film Non-Strong Aphrodisiac directed by Woody Allen, which opened in April and Miramax was responsible for the release.Ashley Judd's face immediately became a bit ugly after seeing a lot of people in the editing room. The body he was hugging was slightly tilted to the outside, while Mira Sorvino stared at the editing room greedily with curious and excited big eyes. Everything inside.

When Song Ya saw the scene where he hugged left and right, he could only secretly rubbing his real name with envy.

"Harvey."

Hollywood still abides by many old traditions. For example, unless there is a previous contract stipulation, the editing room, especially the editing room after the scissors are handed over to the distribution company, generally shuts out the main creator and even the director of the movie, like Harvey. A guest actress and an irrelevant new actress came in directly. To be honest, it was a bit taboo, so Linton frowned immediately and shouted the other party's name to express his displeasure.

"It's okay, isn't APLUS also there?"

Harvey smiled and shook hands with Song Ya and others, "I have other things, just take a look and leave, Bob will stay here."

"Ok."

The cat-and-mouse game project Miramax also has investments. Linton can't help but save face, knowing exactly what he wants to see, and said to the editor: "Cut back to the flight attendant section."

The editing room was not big, and Harvey sat behind Song Ya in the dark with Xiangfeng, and whispered: "I heard Ridley took you beautifully, don't be unhappy." It should be comforting Ashley Judd.

"Hi, can I help you?"

Like the original version, Ashley Judd, who had robbed the role of Allen Pomp, had a frontal close-up at the beginning. She raised her eyebrows and asked her lines in a charming manner.

The male protagonist is the first time to pretend to be a passenger plane pilot. He will not even open the spare chair in the cockpit. Airlines will usually use the empty seat to carry the companions for free. It is the protagonist played by Leto to deal with the captain’s questions. While groping quietly, Ashley Judd, wearing a beautiful stewardess suit, came over, pressed his waist with both hands a little affectionately, and gently moved it, pulling out the chair from where he stood before.

"I'm sorry, did you drop this necklace?" After getting over the discomfort during takeoff, Leto began to use the old way to tease her.

"NO!" She denied loudly, but soon after the camera changed, she shouted YES on the bed.

After watching this intimate scene, the editor paused the movie and turned on the lights again. There was no scene behind her.

"Women like Leto's beautiful boys, right?" Harvey whispered to Ashley Judd, "but the young boys are not worth mentioning in the face of real power."

Ashley Judd did not respond.

"Are you satisfied?" Harvey asked again: "Isn't it cut too much?"

Ashley Judd hummed this time.

"That's good, the two-sided Monroe project you two took over..." Harvey got up with his arms around them, greeted the others in the house, and Shi Shiran left the house.

"Then let's go on." Linton was not surprised, "Bob, do I need to start from scratch?" He asked the brother Harvey who remained.

"Ok."

Bob Weinstein is a middle-aged man with glasses and a little stiff, except for being fat, his personality and his brother Harvey have almost nothing in common. "Then we start from the beginning?"

"no problem."

Except for Harvey Weinstein’s bottom line, that is, Ashley Judd and the bank teller who took the role of Charis will not be cut too much. Linton and Song Ya are not prepared to accommodate and only voted for millions of dollars. Weinstein Pictures, Bob's other requirements were destined to be ignored in the end, and the two took advantage of Yeremov's intent to accompany him to start reviewing the film, and found an excuse to walk out of the editing room to chat privately.

"Very good, I feel better after being changed like this by you."

Linton was full of confidence, "Then there is only one road ahead of us. It will be released before 1996, and then get the Golden Globes and Oscars to win."

The Golden Globe Awards are generally held in mid-January and are the Oscars in February or March. The award-winning films must be released in public in the first year.It's August now, plus the time for the post and soundtrack, the progress is already very tight.

"OK, this is what we planned earlier." Song Ya nodded in agreement.

"You don't care about the cost of the file and the announcement. I will talk to Bowei. All the people in the entire project must work together to make the award. In order to be in a hurry, the project may have a small overspend. "

Linton said: "There are also investor and original script creator Johnny Carson, the male protagonist Abagnell, and the male second prototype Joseph Shea to help run the publicity expenses may also need us to pay because they are all on the crew. After naming a position as a consultant, we still need some money to dispel the screenwriters who are starting to restlessly."

"How much is the overspending?" Song Ya asked.

"About three million, or half of Hollywood Pictures and A+ Pictures." Linton replied.

"no problem."

Song Ya was very satisfied with Linton's work. It was completely acceptable for such a complicated project to only overspend by 3 million, and he readily agreed.
