King of Hollywood

Chapter 115: Relaxed and Unappeased

“I don't need it." Kate simply turned around, left Adrian's arms, walked over and held her arm up and looked at him with her chin up, “To be honest, I knew what was wrong with me, so I could do better. ”

“How do you know I'm telling the truth, Kate?” Adrian whispered.

“Oh, so you haven't been telling me the truth?” Kate was about to pick up her eyebrows.

“Hmm...” Adrian coughed dry, sweeping his eyes a few times before picking up the soup spoon and filling it with some pea ham soup in the pan to taste, "Hmm... the taste is okay, it's just a little less pepper. ”

Kate snorted softly, walked over and grabbed the spoon from Adrian's hand and continued to stir it up in a small pot. I don't know if I think of anything, the stirring speed is not very uniform.

“What's the matter?” Adrian was acutely aware of this, "I apologize if it was because of me. ”

“No, no, I'm just...” Kate sighed and hesitated to look at him and said: “I don't know if I should tell you, does this make me look... very mean...”

“How could it," Adrian laughed, hugging Kate's waist and putting her on the table, "no matter what the problem, you can tell me, always keep in mind that it's easy to misunderstand, people need to communicate, especially between couples. ”

“Okay...” Kate on the table bit his lip and looked him in the eye, "Ed, I want to know... I want to know... why you stopped preparing Tornado. ”

After that, she looked at him nervously and timidly, her eyes open and she didn't blink.

“What, you think it's because you didn't do it well enough?” Adrian grinned and pinched her hand on her face, "How did you get that idea, Kate? ”

“I admit I had this idea in the beginning, but more importantly," Kate, keep your mouth shut, "I've been ready for so long, and I'm sure I can do it, but you told me to pause."

“There are many reasons for the suspension, such as funds, such as manpower, which is no big deal and is not cancelled. Besides, I've got an important pitch for you.” Adrian shrugged her shoulders.

“Got me an important partner?” Kate blinked.

“Yes, my next movie is going to be filmed in London, and I think you're a good match for that character. What, Roger didn't tell you?” Adrian revealed an unexpected look, but then his eyes squinted in front of her: “Or, as he told you, you forgot this while you were angry. ”

“This... this...” Kate immediately became due to Ai Ai, and the previous momentum dissipated.

“Ah, I have to see how the soup burns now.” Kate also used soup as a shield, without waiting for her to jump off the table, and Adrian had already pressed her.

“It's not a good way to change the subject, Kate,” he looked at her with a smile and a deep sense in his eyes, "and it broke my heart that you didn't know what was going on, so I'm going to make amends now. ”

“Wait, Ed, wait.” Kate grabbed him and started messing around with his right hand, and some of the drummers looked at him, "That doesn't count as I didn't get the situation right, anyway, you broke the contract first. ”

“Well, good idea, just give me the blame and I'll be fine.” Adrian looked at her with a smile.

Kate's face suddenly fell asleep a lot, and finally, she found a topic: "Oh, I think I remember Roger saying, is it true that the movie that invited me to the role was adapted from Howard Manor? ”

“Of course." Adrian picked the eyebrows and already guessed what Kate was going to say next.

Kate also saw that her fading sleepiness had come up again, but she coughed softly and asked: "Are you going to… make a Victorian English classical film? ”

“I can't always make cl-type movies, can I?” Adrian laughed without much explanation.

“But... but...” Kate gestured and didn't know what to say.

“Well, Kate, I know you're worried about me, but don't worry too much, you'll always encounter a lot of unexpected difficulties on your way to making a breakthrough, just do your best.” Adrian kissed her on the forehead.

“Well," Kate sighed, then surrounded Adrian's neck and kissed him as well, "it seemed like I had to turn the novel over a few more times, the last time I saw it was two years ago. ”

“Then hurry up,” Adrian pinched her chin, "you know, I'm about to take a new film to France for the Cannes Film Festival and leave for London as soon as the festival is over. ”

“So soon?” Kate was a little surprised.

“Nor was it so soon that preparatory work had just begun, and although there were already candidates for male and female protagonists, I had to come forward and invite them. But most importantly, Emma's little girl screams on the phone every day, and if she doesn't see her again, I'm afraid she'll come to Los Angeles with her own aunt.” Adrian sighed a little helplessly.

Kate couldn't help laughing and making her look charming with her mouth covered and her eyes bent.

“I'll have the script in your hands tomorrow, make sure you make the most of your strengths, and you're perfect for Helena.” Adrian couldn't resist another kiss on her lips.

“Sure, I'll satisfy you," Kate chuckled and poked her fingers through his chest.

Adrian had a slight eye and wanted to make another explanation for the phrase "to your satisfaction”, but then suddenly he thought of something that was not easily perceived and picked the eyebrows, and the tone said: “It's a shame you can't go to the Cannes Film Festival with me, you know there's a very sexy woman with us. ”

“Here you go again, Ed." Kate punched him right in the face and was very dissatisfied with the look of the drum, "Can't I really be any better than that Monica? Belucci? Praising another woman in front of her girlfriend, for God's sake, what's going on in your head?"

“Because I want to make fun of you,” Adrian immediately made a hippie smiley face, "I think it's cute to see you like this every time. ”

Kate was really a little angry, so he quickly closed his smile and hugged her and said, “Well, although your body is not as good as hers, but you have the charm that she doesn't have, which I've always said, but you just put your attention on the word 'body’. ”

'Cause that's one of the most attractive places for women, you say. ”Kate raised her chin.

“Yes, but you have to understand, Kate, that the perfect curve has the temptation of the perfect curve, and the imperfect curve has the temptation of the imperfect curve,” Adrian smiled and hipped and kissed her face, "A beautiful woman who can attract eyes everywhere needs more than just the perfect figure. ”

“I knew you'd say that," Kate put her mouth aside, but the shallow smile in her mouth betrayed her heart, "and now I'm wondering if I should take a vacation like school right away and go to Cannes with you. ”

“That's wonderful, Cannes is a famous tourist landscape with beautiful beaches in the Mediterranean Sea.” Adrian looks happy, "so you'll be attending all three European film festivals. ”

Kate glanced at him for a few minutes and finally sighed angrily: "It's too late to take time off now, I just applied for a paper. Oh, shit, I wish I'd changed my mind sooner. ”

“Can't you really?” Adrian asked with a slight frown.

Kate shrugged her shoulders and didn't speak.

“Well, it's okay, there's still a chance.” He held her in comfort.

Kate was just about to say something, and suddenly her face changed and she jumped off the table and rushed to the kitchen table, screaming, "Oh, my God.”

“It's just a little overcooked, don't exaggerate.” Adrian shrugged his shoulders, shrugging away at a little soup pan that had a distinctly wrong taste.

Kate turned around and stared at him angrily: "It's all your fault, Ed. If you hadn't dragged me here, I wouldn't have cooked the soup and ended up like this.”

“Okay, okay, my fault, I apologize.” Adrian raised his hands, at a time when women were unreasonable.

“Do you look like you're apologizing, Ed? ”

“So, dear Kate, what do you want me to do? ”

“That's what you're supposed to ask yourself, right?"

“But I don't know, will you tell me? ”

……………………………………

With the passage of time into May, the controversy over "The Redemption of Shawshenk" finally subsided, but it is undeniable that the film is already closely linked to the 64th Oscar and the Silent Lamb, and if anyone mentions the Oscar or praises the Silent Lamb, it will inevitably be accompanied by Shawshenk's Redemption. And the dead and loyal fans of the two films always snort at the other movie when they talk about their favorite movie.

“That sick moaning prison movie? Forget it. Who saved who? It was confusing from the beginning.” That's what Silent Lamb fans call it.

“Apart from the disgusting and disgusting bloodbath, and the overdone thrill, there's nothing else to see in this film.” This is the opinion of Shawshenk's Redemption fans.

Of course, extreme speech is rare, most fans are sensible, and criticism is thrown aside. But undeniably, Shawshenk's Redemption has always been at the top of the list of video sales and rentals, dumping Silent Lamb far behind.

But Adrian, director of Shawshenk's Redemption, was not forgotten by journalists because of the end of the controversy, and they quickly found another noteworthy place.
