King of Hollywood

Chapter 70 Celebration Wine Party

“No matter how modest you are, Ed, Shawshenk's Redemption is an excellent film, as evidenced by film critics and the box office.” Elaine raised the glass, “this toast to you. ”

“Thank you.” Adrian sipped the cup in his mouth, "But I didn't do it alone, and without Tim, Morgan, and Bob and their amazing performances, the movie wouldn't have done that. So a toast to them. ”

He raised his cup to Robbins and Freeman on his left, and he raised his cup. Adrian turned around and walked away, not many steps after Elaine.

“Hey, Ed, what's the plan?” He asked with a smile.

“Not yet, you know, I'm busy with the new movie,” Adrian shrugged, "and after the premiere, I stayed in studio 28, except for Halloween, and didn't even pay attention to the box office. ”

“You're really calm, Ed,” Elaine laughed, "of course I know you're busy with the new movie, but the young man deserves a proper rest, despite his energy. ”

“I can't help it, sometimes I can't wait to do what I want to do, and sometimes the objective conditions don't wait for people, just like this time if it weren't for the quicker, Al might have taken on another role," Adrian shrugged a little helpless, “I can only try to rationalize my time. ”

“That's true," Elaine said with an adhesion, "but can you invite Al? It's a surprise that Pacino is in a new movie, and I want to know what kind of story it is now, just like those reporters. ”

“A wonderful story about the friendship of the young and the old, and finding what they might have lost on each other.” Adrian said a little bit, "I touched Al with the script. ”

“I can imagine that your script is always a surprise," Elaine nodded, "and that's what I started by asking if there were any new ideas in the script. ”

Adrian laughed and he knew what Elaine was trying to say. At the premiere, because Harrison was mentioned in the Jurassic Park discussion with Spielberg? Ford, this reminds Adrian of Death in '93, a Ford star. Immediately afterwards, he asked LaVerne to buy the television edition of the film and, after taking the time to write the outline, gave it to the editors to start enriching it.

As the world with the closest ties to Bosworth Films today, it is natural to know this early in the day and therefore want to get this script first. From the first few scripts to Terminator 2, which took the $500 million box office around the globe, Adrian's abilities and vision proved that Globe would not let go easily, and even if it did not have the script, it would have to find ways to invest.

“Don't worry, Eli, I'm sure I'll consider you first when we have a good relationship, a new script or something.” Adrian patted Elaine on the shoulder and said.

“Great, hope to hear your good news.” Elaine didn't say much either, nodded and left. Unfortunately, he did not know that Adrian did not intend to hand over the script of Dead Lives to Worldwide, and he did not even intend to have his own film company produce it - investment, of course, would still have to be involved.

Although close to Universal at the moment, it does not mean giving up connections with several other major film companies, even if some of them are bound to become competitors as they develop. So he handed The Grinch to Disney, except for investing and recommending Brad? Severnin as director, and Sarah? Michelle? Apart from Gayla's role as a daughter, there's nothing else to ask.

This is what Death in Heaven intends to do, and it's LaVerne's business to hand it over to the company. As for the global aspect, there are still a lot of good scripts, too much to give, but it won't be worth it. Besides, Jurassic Park alone is enough for them to earn a full bowl, so we can talk about it later.

Adrian walking alone in the golden hall of the Hilton Hotel, watching three, three, two, two people gathered and chatted, could not help but breathe in his heart. The box office of "Shawshenk's Redemption" certainly did not live up to its expectations and did so much publicity work. Although the first two films received a lot of attention, the news was always in the last editions. This time because the controversy arose rarely appeared in the second edition, it would take Adrian's fame to another level, which would be even more perfect if several Oscars were nominated next year.

In the entertainment world, fame tends to be more important than Billy, and many stars, even if they are heavily indebted, still lend money to them as long as they are famous enough and attractive.

Adrian's first two films not only sold seats, but also paid off considerably. Though slightly worse, Shawshenk's Redemption is still not offline, and his reputation is not much worse than Memory Shards. And as it continues to evolve, there will be hundreds of millions of movies in the box office, so his goal now is those prestigious awards.

Awards such as the Best Newcomer of the Venice Film Festival Award and the Berlin Film Festival Jury Award are largely useless, at best giving the winner that much to talk about in memory, and in the United States, the Oscar is the most influential and tremendous.

Of course, Adrian didn't expect to get a little goldman next year, and Oscar had Oscar's rules of the game, and all he wanted was a nomination. For a new director, getting an Oscar nomination was noticeable enough, and he could accumulate credentials, not to mention that he still had the right to adapt the novel.

Looking around again, Adrian suddenly felt lonely. Though the celebration was scheduled for the weekend, Kate stayed in the villa because of something that was only for women. Then Adrian couldn't see Julia again until the end of the premiere when she went to talk to Spielberg about Jurassic Park, so she couldn't get her number. It's not hard to reach each other, but it's too abrupt.

“What a depressing evening.” Adrian sighed low, but as he turned around, a warm body suddenly burst into his arms.

Adrian grabbed each other's soft belly from behind, while the other held the glass hand and, because of the impact, spilled a little liquid from the glass onto the other's evening gown.

“Oh, I'm so sorry.” Adrian said as he put the glass of wine in the passing waiter's plate and wiped the handkerchief off the top pocket of his suit for each other, "Drew? Miss Barrymore. ”
