Hollywood Hunter

On the big screen, the powerful arrow that burst out from the hard bow happened to startle an old man who had just driven to see him off.

This is Will Professor of Psychology.

Unlike the abrupt turn of the original version, because there are already a lot of details on the ground, the audience realized that compared with other colleagues, Will obviously has a certain special relationship with John.A few more agile viewers have even speculated about this connection.

Knowing the topics that everyone is discussing, Will seems to be somewhat depressed, and Will started to analyze John's eternal life delusions from a psychological perspective.

When he found that he could not refute John's theory, an accident broke out and even took out a revolver.

This became another turning point in the movie.

Everyone comforted and appeased, and then learned that Will's wife died suddenly. The man who had just lost his love was already on the verge of collapse. It became more and more unjust to learn that John could enjoy endless life.

John also showed unusual concerns about Will in this episode.

Eventually, Will eased his emotions, felt John's intention to end the topic, and took the initiative to mention it, hoping he could continue this seemingly beautiful and fantasy story.

John agreed to continue to respond skillfully to the various questions of the crowd.

Unconsciously, the sky ended.

By the bonfire of the warm fireplace, John Player played Beethoven's seventh symphony.

In the distant music and the blurry fire, the story seems to begin to end, and also reached the final climax.

"I was once involved in the lifting of the pyramid, and I was shocked by the long stretch of the Great Wall."

"I have witnessed the rise of the Persian Empire and regretted the demise of the Roman Empire."

"I have encountered Jesus' preaching occasionally, listened to the Buddha's statement, watched the stars with Copernicus, painted with Van Gogh, felt the light of Aristotle's wisdom, and experienced the brilliance of the Renaissance."

"..."

"There is war."

"Endless war."

"I followed Alexander to conquer Europe and greeted the whip of the Mongols. I witnessed the fire in Troy and experienced the fall of Constantinople."

"The Spartan uprising, the crusade, the Teutonic Knights' defeat, Napoleon's Waterloo."

"as well as."

"Two world wars in which mankind madly destroyed itself."

"..."

John continued his monologue for more than three minutes, like a wonderful speech, slowly unfolding a magnificent historical picture to everyone in the cabin.

The sound of music fell unconsciously this time.

In the reflection of the fire, John finally glanced at the crowd, and suddenly raised his hand, a loud high-five broke the dream of everyone.

After everyone recovered, facing a colleague who had almost completely lost his suspicion, John suddenly announced that the story would end here.

The night is thick.

It's time to parting.

One after another, John finally gave the big bow and Van Gogh's paintings to everyone, and he was nostalgic.

Qu Zhongren scattered.

But there are still women who have been in secret for ten years.

Lean side by side in front of the car.

Looking up.

Above the head is the starry sky that is empty and lonely in winter, which has not changed since ancient times.

Linda asked if John would come back to participate in Will’s wife’s funeral. He received a seemingly inhuman negative answer, but was not surprised. Then he suddenly merged some of John’s and Will’s previous words and unveiled a certain the truth.A truth that most people have already guessed after seeing the ending.

"This planet is 4.6 billion years old, and perhaps another 4.6 billion years old."

"Ok?"

"14,000 years old, it's nothing."

"Ok."

"So, we are all just a moment, aren't we?"

"Oh, yeah."

In the final dialogue, the camera began to lift off, zoomed out, and gradually turned into the air again, frozen in the endless starry sky and the outline of the distant sky and earth, and then dimmed.

The subtitles are raised.

Because of Simon’s deliberate actions, the film did not inculcate any thoughtful words from the beginning to the end, but only narrated and discussed interlockingly.However, in the screening room, when the film ended, all the audience fell into an involuntary contemplation.

Until the lights came on, and there was a moment of silence again, warm applause finally broke out.

The new version of "The Man from the Earth" is just 90 minutes long, slightly longer than the original version, and Simon's obsessive-compulsive disorder is causing trouble.

The screening starts at 10 o'clock and the movie ends at 11:30 am.

Along with the applause of the audience, one of the main creatives began to take the stage.

On the stage, a whole row of chairs was lined up. Simon and Redford sat on both sides, posing a position that left the opportunity to a few cores. The four in the middle were the four film creators, director Brett Ratner, male and female The protagonists George Clooney and Elizabeth Perkins, as well as ‘Gossip Gough, who is jealous and useless because of the big guy behind you, who is jealous and useless’, the girl’s position happens to be next to each other. Simon.

The six of them sat down and waited for the reporters who were allowed to bring their cameras into the theater to press the shutter for a while. Redford raised the microphone and asked with a smile: "How do you like this movie?"

The response from the audience was another round of applause.

Radford raised his hand and pressed, and then said: "So, if you have any questions of interest, you can ask questions freely."

The voice fell, and the audience raised an arm.

Radford looked around and selected a reporter from the "Zhongyi" magazine who had some impressions.

The white young man who didn’t seem to be thirty years old took over the topic passed by the staff, and as expected, aimed directly at Simon: “Mr. Westeros, it’s an honor to see your screenwriter again on the big screen. , I want to ask, how did you come up with the idea for this movie, or is the actor John in this movie somehow yourself?"

At the exit of this question, hundreds of viewers in the auditorium opened their eyes slightly, waiting for Simon's answer.

Somewhere in the front corner of the screening room, Grace heard this question but couldn't help but think of her experience in San Francisco last October.There are not many chances to get along with the little man alone, and every time you can make Grace remember deeply.I noticed that someone on the stage clearly glanced over here, and Grace quickly lowered her gaze, her cheeks were slightly warm, not knowing how he would answer this question.

Simon was also not surprised by this problem. He glanced at some place under the eyes without a trace, with a smile on his lips and said, "It was just a fun idea that came out when I chatted with my friends by accident, and then I did it. It doesn't matter. If I were John in the movie, I would definitely try to hide myself as much as possible, instead of sitting in front of everyone at the moment. I'm still afraid of being caught to study anatomical experiments."

In the laughter from the audience, Simon added: "Bright and George have put a lot of effort into this movie. I hope that everyone's questions will be centered around the movie as much as possible. If I go off the topic, I will not answer."

After Simon reminded in this way, although there were more problems turning to Brett Ratner, some kind of gossip in the auditorium was still difficult to suppress.

However, when it comes to relatively private topics later, Simon no longer answers.

The viewers who were clicked had only one chance to ask questions. When they hit the wall several times, no one wasted any more.

The interaction lasted for more than half an hour, around 12:15, the premiere of "This Man From Earth" ended successfully.

The movie premieres of previous years often wait until the next day to see the film critics.

With the increasing popularity of the Internet in the United States, the speed of information transmission has also increased significantly. Less than ten minutes after the premiere, the first batch of movie reviews for "This Man From Earth" appeared on online forums and social platforms.

"Genius-like creativity, I can't wait to watch it a second time."

"Oh, I can't describe the shock this movie brought me. It also let me know that the movie never needs all kinds of big stars and special effects, but the ultimate creativity. As long as your imagination is rich enough, even You can make a top-notch science fiction movie without using any technical means. Yes, "This Man From Earth" is a science fiction, however, there are no special effects tricks common to traditional science fiction in the movie. Well, I can’t I will reveal more, but I swear to God that it is definitely one of the best movies I have ever seen."

"Simon Westero, with $500 billion, was also Simon Westero, who produced "Rola Run."

"An amazing alternative sci-fi sci-fi."

"..."

Almost one-sided praise, of course, there is no lack of opposition.

A film critic on the Facebook platform who was certified as a columnist for the Seattle Times criticized "This Man is from Earth" as "a disappointing movie, filled with Simon Westero's crazy conjecture".

Another freelance critic who also has more than 800,000 followers on Facebook is even more straightforward: "I can be sure that this screenplay by Simon Westero is said to have a production cost of more than one million dollars and will definitely sell again. Because it reminds the public of Simon Westero’s peculiarities again. However, from the perspective of the film alone, it lacks sincerity. I think someone will definitely compare it with "Twelve Angry Men" in the future "For analogy, but compared to the depth of thought of "Twelve Angry Men", this movie really has no connotation, and the story logic is very far-fetched."

The original version of "This man is from the earth", people who like it very much, there are also many people who do not like it.

Simon's original intention of producing "This Man is from Earth" is just for fun, and perhaps there is one thing that further confuses the public's intentions of guessing him.Regardless of whether the media comments are positive or negative, he is also prepared, and any film controversy is inevitable. These comments will actually not affect Simon much. Since he has done his best to do his best, he will submit To the audience.

After the morning premiere, after having lunch with Redford and others, Simon returned to a hilltop villa south of Park City in the afternoon.

Simon’s time was not free. Celia Miller and Ken Dixon, who had returned from Ukraine, came to Park City deliberately. He needed to deal with some related matters.

So until evening.

Since the beginning of last year, this time in Park City, Simon held another hilltop villa party as usual, inviting many filmmakers to come.

The total number of films participating and screening in Park City this year exceeded 200, and the overall quality is also very good.

Daenerys Entertainment, in addition to "This Man From Earth", there is a new director directed by Edward Burns' "McMullen Brothers" entered the main competition of the drama, which was signed with Gaomen Pictures A project recommended by Li An's producer partner James Shams cost only $500,000.

In the past history, "McMullen Brothers" was the winner of this Sundance jury award, and achieved very good business results.

In the past few years, Daenerys Entertainment has not had any public relations interference with the Sundance review results. This time, Simon took the initiative to give Redford a chance. "This man is from the earth" does not need any honor. I hope the jury will leave the opportunity to Other videos.This is actually a hint that "This Man is from Earth" makes way for "McMalen Brothers".

After all, whether this man is from the earth won an award has little effect on the commercial performance of the film that is destined to have attracted too much attention. "McMullen Brothers" won the award, but it can once again win a new filmmaker.

In addition to two feature films, there is also a fashion documentary "Zipper Down" that entered the documentary main competition unit.

This is the design record of Isaac Mizrashi, the creative director of American fashion brand Rishikabang last year, when preparing for a new season of clothing, because Rishikabang is an affordable fashion brand, and many luxury brands under Melissa Sandra There is no competitive relationship, and Gaomen Pictures therefore accepted this cooperation. The documentary was jointly invested by Rishikabang and Gaomen Pictures, and Gaomen Pictures was solely responsible for the operation and distribution.

Li Shi Ka Bang has also made a blood for this brand promotion. During the filming of the documentary, Cindy Crawford, Linda Ivangorinsta, Naga Allman, Yasmin Garry , Tyra Banks, Qusi Gaofu and other first-line supermodels have appeared.This time Park City participated, Cindy Crawford and other supermodels were also invited to help out. The film's premiere is scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.

Many supermodels appeared in Park City, and the mountaintop party at night will naturally not be missed, so it also adds a bit of color to the party where the filmmakers gather.

I called back to Miami in the morning and learned that something had changed and relaxed. Blaise Levison stayed in the hilltop villa honestly like a canary throughout the day.

At night, I felt the excitement of the party downstairs. At first, I was worried about being recognized and embarrassed. I wanted to stay upstairs, but I couldn't hold it anyway. Plus Grace Si was picked up by Simon in the afternoon. Puerte joined the party, she did not want to fall behind, quietly went downstairs.

Then I found that I am really unable to attract any attention in these familiar faces of the public.Those supermodels with tall and beautiful shapes that shuttled to the party even made Bryce Levison rarely have some inferiority.Even if the maintenance is good, her son is 17 years old, after all, she can't compare with these big fairies who were in that year.

However, thinking of what is about to happen tonight, Blaise Levison's mentality has changed accordingly.

These big goblins are showing up one by one, not to attract the attention of a young man at this party, but she has already done it.

Even a fairy woman can't stop a man from happening to dislike that type, doesn't she?

Quite the same, walking through the party crowd to find Westeros in a small lounge bar in the entertainment room, the man is chatting with several other people, looking at each other, leaning on the left and right leaning on the man's side, obviously with two flattering expressions The model, seen on fashion impurities, seems to be called Tricia Schiffer and Patricia Veraquez. After a little hesitation, Blaise Levison simply walked over.
