Hollywood legendary director

"boss."

A few more days passed after the visit.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Lehman went to the company, and a female clerk from Blue Butterfly Pictures called him, "The list of Oscar nominees this year has come out. Mr. Liam would like to ask your opinion."

"Put it on my desk and talk to him after I finish reading."

On January 22, the Oscar organizer, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which has attracted the attention of fans, first announced the "masterpieces" shortlisted for the grand prize.

Unsurprisingly, films like "Slumdog Millionaire" and "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" became popular in the selection.

In addition, after reading the list carefully, Lehman found that Firefly and Marvel had the same record last year.

"Iron Man" and "Invincible Hulk" jointly contracted most of the technical awards. The former nominated for the best sound editing, best sound effects, and best visual effects; the latter also nominated for the best visual effects, again in the digital field Be on the list and brush your presence.

If you count the "Golden Legion 2" nominated for the best art direction, best costume design and best makeup, 7 technical awards, and 6 repeated nominations, this is why Lehman commented that if the top is not a director, it becomes an art director. Also very popular.

Because this movie has been nominated for makeup and clothing awards in succession, I can occasionally take the best editing to show his talent in other areas.

Although fans of these awards do not pay much attention, after all, the selection is behind the scenes, but this year's scenery is not limited to David Fincher and Danny Ball. Lehman's R-rated film "District Nine" is also the best finalist. The director, best film, best original screenplay and best actor, and the four happy gestures also make the audience who like this movie extremely proud.

As many film critics commented, "The Ninth District" is an ethical film under the science fiction system. Many things are only hidden behind the appearance of violence, and it is not difficult to find.

Speaking of it, this is the third time that Lehman has nominated the best director. I just don’t know if the old stubborn group will make a fuss about age, but it doesn’t matter. Oscars are a platform to expand the fruits of victory and share the reputation of benefits. Dyeing vat.

After thinking about it, the preparations to be done still need to be done. Lehman called Liam. At this time, he was discussing the next promotion of "Museum 2" at Lionsgate Pictures, and it was a little bit more popular to get the box office. Don't drop so fast.

"In the afternoon, we have to spare time. We have to contact Mr. Coppola. In this regard, you must hire a professional public relations team to check it out and show up in front of the judges.

The annual awards season is the busiest and most noticed period of the college judges. Most of them rely on this to live a little more comfortably.

"Also, the groundbreaking for "Thor" and "American Team" can also be launched. Those cooperating brands and sponsors will help us. Remember to connect with them to announce the plan."

"I know."

"So be it, see you this afternoon."

When he hung up, Lyman notified Francis Coppola in advance.

In the past two years, Sofia has made a good reputation in Europe by relying on the project "She" provided by Lehman.

After doing this, I looked at the later progress of "American Team". At 4 pm, Lyman joined Liam and others, and the group drove to Coppola Manor.

The environment here is still so suitable for living, it can be seen that there are often people taking care of it, and the huge lawn is trimmed without a trace of clutter.

Lyman started and shook hands with Francis very politely. Liam and the public relations representative followed him, not meant to be close.

"Lyman, come, let me introduce you to you."

With a hearty smile, Francis led several familiar filmmakers, shaking hands with each other politely.

When the conversation was over, Francis and Lyman found a gap to go to the study and sat face to face.

"..."District Nine" was shot very well, much better than "Iron Man"."

Lehman smiled at the right time, but the ridicule of the great director didn't really go to his heart.

One is that I made a good shot by myself, and the other is that the audience is cool to shoot, and in terms of reaping benefits, "Iron Man" slaps "District Nine", but "District Nine" is even better in terms of reputation and future film history.

Of course, there is not much room for comparison between the two, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and both are works directed by Lehman himself.

What's more, at the Oscars, it is obvious that "The Ninth District" will have room to operate, and will get a high gold prize.

Francis is also unambiguous. He also came here, knowing that the selection may not be completely feasible by the work alone.

Oscar is very subjective and there is no uniform standard.

"I want to know what do you want most about PR?"

"Best actor, best director. Gilding this kind of thing, neither Edward nor me will hate it."

Lehman looked at Francis, "There is still a month to go for the awards ceremony. There is not much time."

"I'm not so sure. I can only say as much as possible and judge things. Who can tell me accurately? My face may not be good."

"Don't worry, no matter what the result is, I won't be surprised. It's not that you can't make a movie without it."

"Haha, as long as you can make more excellent films, the organizing committee will compensate you sooner or later. They have always been like this, you know, you are only 33 years old, most famous directors are older than you, and they also need this. A formal recognition."

"It looks like I want to become a professional escort." Lehman shrugged.

But in fact, he knew his disadvantages from the public relations team a long time ago. It has always been age. If he is 40 years old, maybe "Million Dollar Baby" will have won the director Xiaojinren.

What's more, the more realistic and in-depth "Old Nowhere"; the "Ninth District" that reflects racial issues with anti-war thinking.

But even so, Firefly still needs this platform.

Why not actively participate in the creation of additional copyright value?There is nothing to lose anyway.

"Everyone is trying to get one. If the judges don't like it, I think it's not a big problem. Don't worry too much. By the way, what is Sophia doing recently?"

"I went to travel with her friends to relax. Some time ago, she was a little irritable."

"After "She", is there a new filming plan?"

"Many people in the industry handed her scripts, but they didn't see satisfactory and heart-pounding stories."

"Really, maybe my company's script library is suitable. When she comes back, let her contact me."

"I will act for Sophia, thank you for your care."

"Yes, she is a very good director with delicate style." Lehman praised sincerely.

And which father didn't want to see his children become talents, and his proud smile did not hide.
