King of Hollywood

“I'm sorry, are you... are you Dennis? Nate, right?” Joey looked at the man in front of him with a surprise.

“Yes, hello.” Dennis, reach out, "are you here for the audition? ”

“Of course. I'm Joey. Joey? Tribianni," Joey's passionate about shaking his hand, "I really liked your movie, especially the character in The Low Novel, which was so funny about you needling Mia. ”

“Um... I think...” Dennis punched the corner, "that's supposed to be John? The role of Travolta. ”

“Really?” Joey held his big mouth for about two or three seconds, then covered up his embarrassment with a laugh and slapped Dennis hard, “Anyway, you're still great. ”

“Thank you." Dennis rolled his eyes and lifted his legs inside.

“You too... right?” Joey immediately called out to him with a thick face, "If I could...”

“You can run a little bit, exaggerate a little, like take off your shirt or something.” Dennis replied flashly.

So, when the assistant announced the next one in, Joey couldn't wait to jump in, and then she didn't wait for Adrian in the chair to talk, and she sighed and pulled her naked, slender upper body and began to "dance hot”, holding on to her swinging arms from time to time, as if very intoxicated.

Everyone stared at each other, and several assistants attending the audition covered their faces, and Dennis put his head aside. He didn't think he was going to let this guy take his words seriously. Adrian had a twitch in the corner of his mouth, but he didn't say anything until Joey stopped pulling his head to make a "sheep" move, and he frowned and stared at him and said, "Who are you? ”

Then he turned around and questioned his assistant: "This character is a man, yes, but I didn't ask you to find a real man to perform.”

“Cut” came from the director, “Ed, you just glanced at the camera again. ”

“Again?” Adrian was helpless, “you didn't mean it, Brinkley? ”

“Hey, so many people here are watching, Ed.” Brinkley Haha, the TV director who is the director of this episode, laughed and led those around him to laugh.

“Jesus Christ, am I going to dance like this again?” Matt playing Joey? LeBron mourned.

“It's okay, Joey, you're a great dancer.” Jennifer et al. whistled and whistled outside.

“Hey, why don't you come over and jump once.” LeBron said dissatisfied.

“Because the director and the writer only arranged for you to jump,” Dennis said, patting his shoulder comforting, “Jenny and they were right, you did a great job of dancing, and you could make a living without acting in the future. ”

“What a compliment, you bastard?” LeBron punched them right in the face.

“All right, gentlemen, give me a few minutes to adjust, will you? Don't be too hard on the new guy.” Adrian slipped in with a sigh. Coaching is one thing, acting is another, and while he can change his character at will in life, it doesn't mean he can be as comfortable in front of the camera. And there are habits that inevitably affect him, such as knowing that it's not good to look at the camera, but still being able to take a look at it when shooting, because he's a director himself.

“Admittedly, actors are not that easy to do.” Adrian said so to Dennis.

“It's not easy.” Dennis sighed at the water and looked at the six protagonists over there laughing a little bit depressed.

No wonder his play wasn't like this in the beginning, and the writers deliberately arranged for him to do almost two episodes, and he was going to act as a provocateur to Rachel, and Ross mixed things up. But when Adrian agreed to the guest list, he specifically named Dennis to play himself with the guest list.

“After all we've been working together for so long, you can give me some guidance.” That's what Adrian said at the time, and he didn't cover himself up at all. "It was to pull you into the water." Dennis wouldn't refuse, of course, and now we have this scene.

“No, after a long accumulation of actors can move on to directorship, like Clint? That old Eastwood guy. But how many directors have to accumulate to become actors? Even Woody? Alan, a colleague of mine, is an actor and director.” Adrian said he took a sip of the cup and looked at Jennifer and others in the distance, "Actors like Matt and Jennifer who have played the same role for a long time can easily be fixed to death, so it's better to go behind the scenes in the future. ”

“Play the same role for a long time? How long?” Dennis asked half a joke.

“Almost a decade.” Adrian shrugged, "you know," Old Friends "has a fairly high rating, arguably the hottest TV show of all time, so just keep the momentum free of major mistakes and shoot the 10th season because it shouldn't be a problem. ”

“Wow, this is... amazing.” Dennis Beam said, of course he would not question Adrian's words. Adrian's judgment has never been missed since he realized it, but if it were true...

His complexity looked not far away, and Jennifer was laughing and talking to several friends. Adrian, who took Dennis' expression to heart, touched his chin thoughtfully, but shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Although Adrian's acting in front of the camera wasn't very good, after all, the play wasn't much, so it took all afternoon to get it done. To that end, all the crew members celebrated with a warm round of applause after the last shot, and whether to encourage a little more or a little more, it was up to those who applauded.

This episode of "Old Friends" jumped a few more percentage points after it aired, and Joey's performance was hilarious, and Jennifer's story, which had two lines for men and women in each episode, was interesting and heartwarming, naturally followed by those who already liked the show.

Adrian and Dennis' guest list is one of the reasons, of course. Dennis doesn't have to say that the media now calls him a brilliant young man with a lot of popularity. As for Adrian, although he has also appeared in the media several times with the title of miracle director, he has remained a relative star at the front desk and remains a bit mysterious to the public. Plus the relationship between the two, and the interesting encounter at first, has been reported in the media, and this kind of guest mix is not eye-catching, and that's seeing ghosts.

But this is the next thing, and it's only early November, and this episode is the penultimate episode of the first season, so it won't be released until at least a month later, the two weeks before the end of December.

After completing the guest list for Old Friends, Adrian moved on to the movie again. The most popular film of the moment - literary film, to be exact, the most sought after by critics - is the piano lesson directed by Campion, which has just been shown in the United States. Because of the small cost of independent films, despite the trailers, the publicity, and the Venetian Golden Lion Awards, there was still no premiere ceremony. But many long-awaited critics praised the film, especially many women critics.

“This is a great work of reflecting the awakening of women, Campion perfectly interpreted from * * with the mind. ”

“A beautiful and fascinating love story, Campion describes in her unique way the feelings that women show when confronted with the clash of reason and emotion. ”

“Holly? Hunt succeeded in performing a beautiful mute image of a rich but imprisoned woman with a soft sign language and a firm eye, and Campion made a remarkable attempt. ”

Praise words like this abound, and as I said before, films like female directors are always appealing to critics, especially those who are feminist.

With such a reputation, coupled with early publicity, the box office would naturally be nowhere near as good as getting the first $3 million on the first weekend. It seemed a little chilly, but compared to the screening of the exhibition, the number was quite small, as fewer than 200 cinemas were showing Piano Lessons in the first week.

Of course, this is not a good score. If you include the cost of publicity, the cost of the movie is almost 13 million. If you want to make money in the box office, you need to get at least 40 million. It's also impossible, because the owners of the estate are brilliant businessmen, and they won't be able to easily provide more resources for a small film, even if the audience has a more fixed cult type of film, even if it's a small film directed by a big director.

Generally speaking, around 1,000 exhibitors can be won at the time of the first week of show, unless they are particularly reputable b-rated films. Female-directed small-scale literary films like Piano Lessons have done well to be shown in nearly 200 cinemas in the first week. Nobody can dictate that, because it's up to the market.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the movie is doing well enough, the cinema will gradually increase, and while it won't be as big as the production, the cost can be recovered through long-line screening, which is almost half a year long as the Low Volume Novel.

The Piano Class has proven to be commercially valuable by getting $3 million in box offices for nearly 200 screenings. Besides, with today's reputation, it is almost certain that Oscar will be surrounded, and this alone will add a lot of stunts, which will inevitably increase the box office if the best films are available. In the history of Oscar, there have been a number of films that have grown in the box office because of the best films available.

However, unfortunately, Oscar's best films and best directors have been wrapped up, and thanks to the efforts of many people, the Schindler List has begun to enter the eyes of Americans from all sources.
