Hollywood Hunter

Compared to the situation where many people wanted to sneak up and sneak in at the first Villa Westeros party, no one dared to do so now.

Because once discovered, the consequences will be very serious.

The probability of not being discovered is almost zero.

However, compared to the first time, the Westeros Villa Party on the southeast hill of Park City is also more lively this year. Not only are the newcomers at the Sundance Film Festival invited, but also many large and small There are a total of five or six hundred people in Hollywood and various celebrities in other circles.

The fact that there are more people also brings a problem.

Although Simon Westero was at the party, it became very difficult to say a few words with the Hollywood tycoon, let alone leave a deep impression.Fortunately, such a social occasion, if you can grab some other connections, will also bring great benefits to your career.

Inside the hilltop villa.

The four young people who rushed to the party early to feel like they were like four mice that fell into the rice tank. Four people, three men and a woman. If you look closely, you should be able to tell that this is a brother and a couple.The brothers are named Ben Affleck and Casey Affleck, and the couple are Matt Damon and Minnie Drift.

Two of them are the big books and motors in Simon's memory that have been in Hollywood for more than two decades.

Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, who were only 25 years old this year, have been in Hollywood for many years, just like Matt Damon. In 1988, Julia Roberts starred in the modern gray before the fame. "Girl" has a small role, and has worked tirelessly for so many years. This is the most important film that the good friends have starred in. It is only the second piece of "Cool Guy" after Kevin Smith last year after "Crazy Shopkeeper" , But it's still just a small, unassuming supporting role.

At about the same age, Ruifan Phoenix, who belongs to a brokerage company, has shined in Hollywood. They are still unknown. Normally, many young people who have no dreams in Hollywood will start to face reality, and the two will almost insist. When not going, finally ushered in a turning point.

Damenlisi Entertainment's high-end film industry took a fancy to a script jointly written by the two named "Mind Catcher", which was inspired by Matt Damon's short Harvard career, and then with Ben A. Flake continues to improve together.The story tells a mathematics professor who left a math question on the campus blackboard and was accidentally cracked by a young man who worked as a cleaner. Later, he learned that the young man was imprisoned because of a fight. The professor took the initiative to give help out of pity. Help each other achieve self-worth.

Speaking of which, the script was favored by Gaomen Pictures, and I would also like to thank the two of them for their performance in Kevin Smith's "Cool Guys".

Recommend a script to a film company should have been the job of an agent, but since the two haven't improved their careers for so many years, they can see the contacts and capabilities of their agent.After completing the script in 1992, their script was not fancy by the film company until they met Kevin Smith last year.

This is definitely not because the scripts of the two are of poor quality.

The main reason is that Hollywood has never been a circle where you have a face and ability to mix easily. Most of the time, luck accounts for a large part of the reason.Of course, with the exception of guys like Simon Westeros, those who were born out of nowhere have completely fallen out of the category of genius.

Although Big Ben and Madama were able to enter Harvard in those years, in Hollywood, these could not be shot.

At the beginning of this year, at a party with Kevin Smith, the independent film director asked whether the scripts of the two had a downfall. After learning that they had no success, they suggested that they can send the script to Park City for luck.

The Sundance Film Festival is now a comprehensive film trading platform. In addition to the film, it also provides trading channels for many newcomers' scripts.

Big Ben and Madama sent the script to Park City through Kevin Smith's connections. Unexpectedly, the good news would come so fast.

In just a few days, the two received the news,

This requirement is not excessive.

Then, they received the invitation letter of the Westeros Villa Party at the Sundance Film Festival, which did not give much explanation there. However, even the Westeros Villa party, it is obvious to see Simon Wei Stello's chance.Both of them are smart people, and even thought that their script could be so quickly seen by Gaomen Pictures, it is likely that Simon Westero personally made the final decision.

If this is true, then, after so many years, it is finally in its early stages.

Simon Westero's personally fancy project has not yet failed.

Two invitations, each person can bring a companion, Matt Damon brought his girlfriend, Ben Affleck recently single, and unkindly rejected the agent who wanted to rub the party, but brought it With his younger brother, a group of four drove all the way from Los Angeles to Park City.

I was still fantasizing how Simon Westero might have fancyed it. All kinds of encounters and hates were late, and since then they have met each other and become hardcore.

however.

Obviously thinking too much.

More than half an hour after arriving at the party, there was no one to entertain them at all.

It seems that all the big coffees that go to and fro at the party seem to want no money, Robert Redford, Nicole Kidman, Gus Van Sant, Michelle Pfeiffer, Hugh Grant, Robert De Nile, Andy McDowell, John Travolta, Rosanna Arquette, Bruce Willis, Demi Moore... and even Cindy Crawford, Gram Laudia Schiff, Daniela Postva and some other micron supermodels that stand out in the crowd, the arrogance is very arrogant.

At the beginning, I also had the courage to talk to these big coffees to recommend myself. After seeing it too much, not only did I not get used to it, but also felt a bit self-conscious.

Fortunately, there are a lot of people around them.

People in the same circle can naturally get together, and soon chatted with several creators of a film in this Sundance main competition unit. This is a director named Paul Thomas Anderson. , The same age as Madama, only 25 years old this year, but has completed his feature film debut "Casino Latitude".

Moreover, Anderson happens to be a contracted customer under ICM.

The "Casino Latitude" was invested by high-end film industry, and the production cost of 3 million US dollars was invited by Samuel Jackson, Philip Hoffman and other good actors to participate in the show, the four motorists and the arrival For several days, Park City has carefully studied a series of shortlisted projects this year. "Casino Latitude" has not yet been broadcast, but I also know some. I still remember that the film introduction is said to be Steven Spielberg's goddess. Gwyneth Paltrow starred.

It is still the same brokerage company.

I've seen it at some parties before, but that's a very proud girl. They can't climb these little shrimps.

Although Samuel Jackson, Philip Hoffman and others participated in "Casino Latitude", they will not stay with Anderson at this time, which is not a level.

Both sides are of the same age, and one side is free to talk. Anderson is also very interested in the script of the two of them. He also introduced another new film he is preparing, called "Football Night", which has also been finalized by Gaomen Pictures, because the more Liao Yue speculated, Anderson also sent an invitation to Big Ben, he felt that the other party's image is quite suitable, if you want, take the time to arrange an audition.

Actor.

Big Ben is also refreshed, but when he thinks about the subject introduced by the other party, and listens to the other party's suggestion that Gaomen Pictures has given him considerable autonomy, he is somewhat suspicious.

This audition?

Although the other party is very sincere, there seems to be no special hint.

but.

Ok.

Anyway, always try.Anyway, if you can really get the actor, what a big deal...

While chatting, a Uighur maid came here through the crowd and looked at the motors like a few others, tempting: "Is it Mr. Damon and Mr. Affleck?"

There are probably few people in Hollywood who don’t know the name of the Maid of the Uighurs.Or, few people across the United States do not know.

Upon seeing the waitress, both Big Ben and Madama agreed quickly.

After confirming the identity of the two, the waitress made a please gesture: "Come with me, Mr. Deichman is waiting for you."

The two subconsciously left with the waitress, and immediately reacted, not Simon Westero, but Ella Deichman.

Ella Doichman

The last time the contract was signed, Gaomen Pictures contacted only one person in charge of the script department, but of course, the two of them also knew Ella Doichman.

Big Ben’s younger brother, Cassie Affleck, and Madama’s girlfriend, Minnie Drift, saw that the waitress didn’t mention them and stopped at the same place.Big Ben and Madama followed the waitress through the crowd in the villa lobby and down the corridor to an indoor bar on the east side of the villa.

The interior of the bar is very large, at least hundreds of square meters, and there are all kinds of entertainment facilities, but compared to other areas of the villa, the lights here are dim and blurred. The soft music and the crowd dancing on the dance floor are completely different from the lively areas in the villa.Although there was no guard at the door, everyone seemed to be able to come and go freely, but this difference in atmosphere made the number of people coming here a lot less. When the two of them followed the waitress, they could not help but take their steps lightly.

Arriving at the destination, this is a deck.

Seeing the arrival of the two of the motors, the two talking in the deck got up together and happened to know each other. At least I have seen them in newspapers and magazines. The president of Highgate Films, Ella Doichman, and the famous Hollywood independent film director And Gus Van Sant, one of the judges of this Sundance Film Festival.

Simon Westero was not there, which disappointed the two.

So he quietly looked around when he shook hands and shook his hands. Big Ben quickly went to the more spacious deck in the bar. Well, there were many women, and it was clearly discernible, sitting just on the edge of the deck on his side. The one that seems to be the rumoured Spielberg goddess Gwyneth Paltrow.

Because of his good eyesight, Big Ben saw the kind of smile on Gwenice Paltrow’s smiling face from the dim light, and looked at the opposite side of the deck, talking and laughing. appearance.

In the Hollywood circle, there are probably not many people who can make Spielberg teach women to express this expression.What's more, the position where the other party sits can only be said at the edge of the deck, even because it is too crowded, the body is not completely seated, and you can probably imagine some things.Next to Paltrow, he thought for a moment, and remembered that his name was Jennifer Connelly.

Great beauty.

The figure inside is a bit better.

And the side of the side seat facing away from them, the most edge, although completely invisible, but the long leg protruding out, it is a bit thrilling.

A good guy who was surrounded by a group of women.

Obviously.

Who else can it be?

These thoughts flashed quickly in my heart. Daben didn't show too many abnormalities, but just let his friend sit in the deck here, and he sat on the outside. At the same time, he quickly withdrew his attention and began to interact with Deichman and Talk to Van Sant.

The topic starts with the script of "Mind Catcher".

Ella Doichman first revealed a small inside story, because of their script, the two producers of Gaomen Pictures were fired.

This suddenly made the two somewhat trembling.

What's happening?

Fortunately, Deichman soon revealed the answer.

It turned out that in order to test whether the person who got the "Mind Catcher" read the script seriously, the two of the motors set up an abrupt plot of the kissing of the two male characters in the middle of the script.The two male protagonists in the story are absolute straight men, and there is no gay bedding, so you can imagine how awkward the plot is.

In fact, it is the careful thinking of the two.

Unexpectedly, this careful thought was used by Simon Westero and handed over the script to several contracted producers under Gaomen. As a result, two of the five producers did not find the plot. Obviously, they did not study the script seriously, and then the big boss personally spoke out and was dismissed.

Hearing Deichman's explanation, the two looked at each other a little.

And inevitably worried.

Play big?

After Ella Deutschman finished the episode, she didn't show any stupidity on her face, and some emotions were probably proud.In fact, although the five producers did not include him, he also passed the test.

Afterwards a false alarm, but secretly introspected.

As Daenerys entertained, many people within the group inevitably gave birth to arrogance and slack.

This is obviously a beat from the boss's question.

Right now, Deichman asked, as a result of what he heard, the two didn't want to admit their initial thoughts, but hesitated and admitted.

Can't you say that it is a flaw in your script?

Treating others as fools may result in even worse results.

After the short episode at the beginning, I entered the topic. Sure enough, it was like a guess. Gaomen Films has officially established the "Mind Catcher" and selected Gus Van Sant, who is very interested in this script, as the director. This time it is Ella. Doiqiman personally introduced several people.

Everyone chatted about this project for half an hour, and finally agreed to stay in Park City for the next few days. While Gus van Sant fulfilled his Sundance jury duties, he can continue to discuss this in more depth. project.
