King of Hollywood

It's no surprise that the British press and critics reacted so violently, although Adrian had a British grandmother, and although he himself had British nationality by default, and although his first film was filmed in London and filled with a lot of English black humor, he was always American.

The British and American countries are politically allied, but most of the time culturally they look down on each other. Americans feel that the British are hypocritical and rigid, and the British feel that the Americans are rude and unreduced. It's been a long time. Jane can't imagine if we don't have a needle-sharp fight. Perhaps this strange state of affairs is ridiculous in the eyes of outsiders, but it seems perfectly normal for the middle class in both England and the United States.

As an American, Adrian made films with a strong cl style and won the Golden Palm Award at the Cannes Film Festival. Is this the kind of man who wants to call Edward Fresh and Elegant? The work of Morgan Foss, or "Howard Manor," one of the most famous novels, moved onto the screen, and it was a god's joke, and no wonder the British media was so angry, almost a one-sided criticism.

As for the American media, it was very embarrassing, generally speaking for their own people at this time, but Adrian was really overthinking it. If this novel had even the slightest similarity with those of his previous films, they would have defended him, but the truth is...

“Frankly, it must be cool to expect to see a different kind of Howard Manor in a few months, full of bloody violence and black humor.” The fact that the newspaper has a hard time speaking does not mean that the tabloid does not speak, but that such a comment only serves to fuel the fire.

With this clue, it would be much easier to find it. To move the novel to the big screen, it would certainly be necessary to rent the estate, unless the estate leased under special circumstances could not be too far from London, so it took some work before the reporters finally came to the door.

“I want you to keep going, the footage on the estate is almost over, and don't let these guys bother you. And, of course, I'll have them driven far away.” Adrian had these reporters thrown away and Hopkins had a small meeting in the living room.

Although he knew what was going on out there and was prepared to do so, he still didn't expect the reporters to come so soon. It was the birthplace of the paparazzi.

“I think it's perfectly fine.” Hopkins took the lead.

After the appearance of the journalist, Adrian briefed him and Thompson in private about what was going on out there, especially the British media's blame on themselves and on them - because Hopkins and Thompson were British, and the British media were much more tolerant of them, with little to say other than that they were afraid to work with this “stupid”, "arrogant” director, whose main firepower was concentrated on Adrian, what a difference.

Hopkins knew it was Adrian's quest for support, and he and Thompson were the two most important actors in the crew. After this time of cooperation, this talented director, whom he has recognized in his heart, will naturally not fail to support.

“Yeah, it's not that hard.” Thompson followed suit. Although she had already anticipated the possibility of doing so when she chose to cooperate, she eventually promised to do so, and Adrian, with little Emma, gave her a wonderful feeling that her instincts convinced her that she could work with such a person. As for risk, as a famous talented actress preparing to develop into a producer, how can you not know that any film is risky?

With two stars and one of the most important supporting characters - Kate certainly won't stand by her boyfriend. Other actors and staff have joined forces. Once the interior was united, Adrian waved and the whole show began to function again.

Journalists who have been driven far away are very unhappy but temporarily unable to do so. The view outside the estate is very wide open. The camera will contain a lot of things when shooting a vision shot. If the journalists do not intend to break in, it is understandable once or twice, but more often, it will cause trouble. So, no matter what kind of reporter interviews the crew, they don't deliberately influence the shooting, which is one of the diving rules.

Forgive me, they still take pictures with cameras far apart, and then write down what they see and smell back - and, of course, adding vinegar is definitely necessary, so the British media slammed it more sharply.

“It is clear that Adrian is very confident in himself and he is stubborn in not disclosing any information about the film and driving the journalists far away. While it seemed like - yes, yes, it seemed like - he spent a lot of time on costume props, the profound meaning of Foster's novel was not expressed in a few fancy costumes and time-honoured props. Oh, this is so unfortunate for the whole of England that none of the directors wanted to make this novel into a movie.” This is what a story in the famous British tabloid Sun says.

While it's funny to take things up to this height as an entertainment tabloid, don't forget that petting the crowd is what the Sun is all about, even a few years away from it's most arrogant.

But Adrian, who was busy shooting at the estate, didn't care. He was now devoting all his energy to his work. There was no need to rebut it. It would be useless to say more than that. It would be better if he waited a few months to speak with the facts. Moreover, the criticism that arose was part of the LaVerne plan, with a film that received a high box office and at least 40 per cent of its credit for marketing. How could an audience pay for a movie theater without publicity? How is it possible for a film critic to follow a movie? That's why so many new directors who want to step into the sky like to make movies with controversial subjects, the day the eye economy emerges from the media.

Howard Manor has a budget of about $10 million, which is still because Hopkins received only $4 million for the Foster novel, or as his new Oscar Shadow Emperor, definitely more than that. As a literary and artistic drama film adapted from a British novel, such a high budget is already dangerous. If a lot of money is spent on publicity, it is likely that the cost will not be recovered. After all, such a film is too small.

In that case, think of a way to do some free but effective publicity, such as the huge controversy, people's curiosity will never fade away, and the more controversial the more they want to see it. But Adrian doesn't need to make taboo themes, just a director famous for gang and violence, to direct a fresh and elegant Victorian-style literary film, a stunt that's noticeable enough.

These things are LaVerne's responsibility, and Adrian just needs to ensure the quality of the film, so it's none of his business how the British press criticizes him. Only to make him happy that Emma was picked up by her aunt three days before the journalists arrived - although she now plays everyday besides fun, staying in the film crew for a long time is not appropriate - otherwise it's not good for the little guy to know what those media outlets will write.

Emma was very upset when she left, for whatever reason, needless to say. After that night, when the little guy arrived at bed, he drilled into his arms desperately, relying more completely on him during the day, feeling like he was announcing that it was her territory and that no one was allowed to violate it.

Adrian could only shrug his shoulders helplessly. Fortunately, even if the little guy didn't want to, even if he looked at him with his eyes open when he left, he eventually left the estate, so that evening he “grabbed” Kate back to his bedroom and kissed her.

Unfortunately, only a few days later, the nose is better than the dog spirited reporters, although they can be blocked from the outside of the estate, although they dare not disturb the filming, but there is a situation when they take long shots at rest, if the intimate shots are taken, there will be some trouble. So even though I wanted to continue, I hesitated to press it down again and again.

“We're mostly on the job now anyway, so we'll talk about it when we get back to London.” Kate was so comforting to him privately, which caused Adrian a small accident. You know, when she made out that night, she struggled with a kick and a tape for a long time before being tamed.

Kate felt his thoughts and gave him a ghost face and turned around and ran away. Adrian shrugged her shoulders and left it behind. Kate was right, let's finish the job first.

The extra journalists did not affect the operation of the crew, after all, they could only observe far away and would not take photographs at the time of filming. As for the criticisms transmitted to the crew because of them, although they caused some minor fluctuations among British employees, they were basically dissatisfied and outraged, although most British employees had worked with Adrian for the first time and had only worked in the crew for three weeks, but considered such statements totally irresponsible.

“Don't be angry, we just need to get the job done.” Seeing Adrian comfort them more than once in his eyes will solve any difficulty as long as no questions arise internally.

After the press crowded in, it took almost five more days to officially enter the month of July, when the shots of the estate were finally shot. But Adrian was just a little relieved, because the plan was messed up, and I'm afraid the rest of the camera would have a lot of difficulty shooting.

These scenes need to be filmed in the city, and although London has many options, they are not as convenient as Hollywood's studios and cinemas, and reporters have to be given the opportunity to run around.

Generally speaking, most journalists leave after a few days outside the crew without much news, and this is still the treatment of the big producers. But after five or six days, the distant journalists haven't even decreased. Obviously, the iron heart has to dig something out.
