King of Hollywood

Chapter 195: Various gossip

“Frankly, gentlemen, your performances are incredible, and it's going to be a great film, well done," said Adrian, smiling at the three leading male characters in the L.A. Secret in front of him.

Now that it has been dotted in the meantime to meet Oscar's selection criteria, most film critics have also commented on The L.A. Secret, which is unexpected and well-known. [Search latest updates all over]

“A wonderful and delicate suspicious movie that we recapitulated back in the '50s, a chaotic, full of deals, yet always exciting LA. The director has mastered the rhythm of the story, and all the details are perfectly present, with all the temperaments of Hollywood's Golden Age films, making it so refreshing. If anyone wants to know what L.A. looks like in the' 50s, and if someone misses Golden Age movies, the L.A. Secret is definitely not to be missed." Famous film critic Angelo? Pike commented so.

Essentially, older film critics are very appreciative of the film, and as the assistant in the Bosworth film industry said, one of the biggest points of view of the L.A. Secret is nostalgia. As for the relatively young film critics, although not as highly praised as the older generations, most still think the film is well organized.

“Technically, this is supposed to be a dramatic film, and the suspicion is not too great, and when the girl who was the victim asks the question of the first lead, she can basically guess the truth, and the police chief's shooting only completely solves the mystery. But the best part of the movie is, how many stars, Ralph? Phoenix is playing Edmund, a police officer who's just graduated and has a father's career. Spicey's a smooth old cop, Jack; and Russell? Chloe, a rough man who can only solve problems with violence, has his own righteous police officer, Bud.

Three different people have had violent clashes as a result of one case, affecting others as well as others. Ultimately, Edmund became less idealistic and no longer used rigid means to uphold justice in his heart; Jack, though dead, regained his ideals before he died; and Bud, though still crude, found true love in his heart and was willing to protect her. The three actors interpreted these subtle changes very well and deserved the honors they had earned.

It's worth mentioning. Catherine? Zeta Jones, an actor from Wales, as the most dramatic actress in the film, is not only as gorgeous as Zorro's Mask, a classic character that separates her from the other three actors, but also has an impressive look of helplessness and remorse, especially after a slap from Bud, who was misunderstood.

As a result, despite the film's slightly disappointing * * ups and downs, with these distinct characters, it is still worth a look. ”

Despite their criticism of the weakness of the story and controversy over Zeta Jones' performance, they all admitted that the three male actors were remarkable, which led to the Adrian word.

“Oh, of course, that would be perfect if I died a little later, or simply participated in the final shootout.” Spicey was playing with his mouth, as usual.

“Unfortunately, Kevin, if you don't die, there will be no last shootout.” Raven said something funny next to him.

“The lady around Ed was just as brilliant.” Chloe refers to the pretty, sexy woman next to Adrian.

“Thank you." Zeta Jones smiled beautifully, holding Adrian's arm tight and looking extremely intimate. She was dressed tonight in a black evening dress with a hairpin behind her head, a seductive goose neck and incense shoulder with a smile and bright teeth, as beautiful as ever.

“Well, let's go inside and enjoy it with everyone.” Adrian made a gesture and walked inside with Zeta Jones.

“What an envy," Spacey whispered and blinked at Raven, "don't you think? ”

“Come on in, the movie's about to start.” Without laughing, Ralph filmed them and then followed them to the projection hall.

“Ralph was always so serious, so boring.” Spicey sighed and looked at Crowe again, seemingly trying to get the answer she wanted from him.

“Well, Kevin, if you're really jealous, you might as well try that.” Crowe smiled.

“Come on, Russell, I'm no better than Ed, I can attract a whole bunch of women around.” Spacey's got her mouth shut, "they're right. The movie's about to start. Let's go in. ”

Claudon laughed.

While the L.A. Secret story has been criticized as somewhat weak by film critics - those who are relatively young and have not experienced that era - it does not seem to be the case, after all, that a full character image will complement the story well. Whether it's Edmund's idealized integrity, Bud's rough justice, or Jack's vanity, or Lynn's style, it's just a few shots away, and it's the first time you catch the audience's heart, and those film critics can't deny it.

And director Curtis? Hansen does have a lot of detail in place, funny places, and surprisingly shocking places. Edmund and Jack, for example, went to a bar to find out where they met a real Hollywood star, but Edmund mistakenly assumed that the other woman was also a prostitute, and then ridiculed herself and was thrown a glass of wine. Or maybe Jack found a clue and went to the police commissioner, and he was suddenly shot dead, and the commissioner thought he was doing it seamlessly, because of a name Jack was dying of. "Rollo? Tomani" was spotted by Edmund.

Of course, the movie is not fine, the pace is moving relatively slowly, and the final * * gives a feeling of ending without going to the top. This is also a helpless thing, after all, one of the viewpoints of the movie is vintage, and movies of the fifties, the pace is not as fast as it is now, and it is inevitable that this will happen.

However, the flaws were not hidden. At the end of the film, there was still a warm round of applause in the screening hall, and the audience would talk about the plot-related topics from time to time after walking out of the theater. But the reporters who were always around were not interested in the details of the movie, and they were all looking for those two shadows in the crowd with their necks, unfortunately, almost all the time, until everyone walked away * and still hadn't found them.

“I had no idea there was such a side door to the theater, and those guys in the back would be depressed for a long time.” Zeta Jones said in a surprising tone as the car drove down the street.

“This is for people like you and me, and of course, if we weren't very close to the cinema, we wouldn't be able to get this service.” Adrian said, sliding gently across her face with her fingers.

Zeta Jones smiled and put her arms on the frame of the car door, supporting her face. The style looked particularly tempting. You know, Adrian kept her hands on her thighs when she was in the theater.

Unexpectedly, however, Adrian sent her back without meaning to stay.

“Rest well, I won't bother you.” Adrian stood by the door and said in a gentle tone, his smile seemed mysterious and indescribable under a slightly dull light.

“This isn't Ed I know.” Zeta Jones said delicately.

Adrian shrugged her shoulders and then came up with something to say: "By the way, I've arranged your lower piece, and this time it's no longer a retro-inspired woman, but it's time for fans to appreciate the fashion of your professional beauty and the soft, healthy body. ”

“Oh, not so long, you can appreciate it now.” Zeta Jones hinted.

But Adrian was not moved, but went on to say: "As for the man who matched you with the play, he also thought that Oscar was once the best male actor, and that his fame was not small...”

“Ed" Zeta Jones suddenly interrupted his speech, his tone was shadowy, and his color became gloomy, "Do you have to say that now? ”

She sighed around his neck, looked up into her eyes, and looked at him with a grieving look: “I know we're just... but can't there be anything else without these? ”

Adrian was silent and then lowered her head to kiss her gently on the forehead, still saying in that gentle, sincere tone: "I think you must have misunderstood, Kate. Didn't you say on the phone yesterday that you were feeling sick and had a cold? I've already regretted taking you to the premiere today. You're wearing so little, the temperature isn't very high, maybe it'll get cold again. ”

“No, it was a little uncomfortable yesterday, but it's all over today...” Zeta Jones busily distinguished herself, but Adrian didn't give her the chance: “Don't lie to me, Kate, it's not that easy to catch a cold. Sometimes you feel better, but maybe it'll come back soon, and I heard you sneeze a little more than once in the theater before. ”

Hold down the red lips you want to open, Adrian says in an irresistible tone: "Okay, now go back to your bedroom and rest for the night, no more cold, you're my woman."

Saying that his hands suddenly pressed inside on her butt, Zeta Jones screamed softly. Faced with his commanding tone of mouth, he could not resist, he had to enter the house and watch him get in the car and leave before closing again.

Leaning on the door, Zeta Jones grew out of breath, some confusion and some anger in his face, why is it always like this? Why does he always act unexpectedly? Especially when you're judging yourself steadily.

When you think he's going to do it, he does it; when you think he's going to keep it, you can turn into another face in the middle of nowhere... a beautiful woman creates a sense of powerlessness in her heart for the first time, and then sneezes a lot.

“Damn... Sneeze was right...” Zeta Jones went back to the bedroom and went into the bathroom, OK, just do what he says, it's a long time.

Unfortunately, Adrian did say that the next day the cold not only came back, but the symptoms were worse, so that Zeta Jones lay in bed for almost two days.

Without saying that, although the journalists did not get a picture of Adrian and Zeta Jones coming out, and although they did not do anything that night, it did not prevent the media from doing so. After all, there are photographs of two intimate hand-holders appearing at the premiere, and it's not easy to make up a story.

“Next Wonder Girl?” This is the title of a story in the entertainment edition of The New York Times.

But this argument was quickly refuted. After all, only Julia, of the five previous miracle girls, had not been the lead actress in Adrian's work, but Julia had been photographed several times dating Adrian, and at that time Adrian only had a Bosworth film company, and it was obvious that she had a close relationship with the film produced, which was counted among the miracle girls, so she was reluctant to count Zeta Jones as a miracle girl.

However, the question of the name does not prevent journalists from doing articles on the relationship between the two, not to mention that his playboy's name is quite famous in the circle, since both appeared so intimately in public, it is absolutely impossible to say that nothing happened between the two. As for ordinary people, Adrian may not know his name as well as his inner circle, but celebrity gossip is definitely their favorite thing to see, so why can't journalists play?

In short, Adrian's news of the new joy began to spread widely, and there were even speculations about who he was going to rumor next time, and even more so, about Adrian and Nicole, who was currently rumored to divorce Cruz.

“We all know that the Big Eye Ring is directed by Adrian, and Nicole has a big part in it. Will he let go of this beautiful sexy woman in the face of such a seductive scene, in Adrian's usual style? Obviously, the real reason Nicole and Cruz got divorced was because Nicole seduced Adrian.” A small newspaper has sworn in Dandan's words.

Since the rumours of the possible divorce of the former Golden Boy Yu girl at the end of December last year, there have been numerous false information and reasons for the divorce. After almost a month of silence, such speculation grew stronger, especially after considering the non-response of the two as acquiescence, and the reasons for the divorce became the focus of attention.

Of course, the thing you love most is cheating on a man or a woman, so gossip first evolves from who may have had an affair to who may have had an affair first. Cruz doesn't have to say, when Red Xiaosheng has a handsome face again, even if he doesn't have an affair, the media will find a lot for him, not to mention that he's not so clean. Not to mention Nicole, the news that a woman had an affair was more eye-catching, so she also made a long list, almost all the male actors and directors she had worked with were famous, and Adrian naturally couldn't escape.

In fact, Nicole and Adrian's gossip had spread since the Cold War separated, when rumors had arisen that Cruz was dissatisfied with Nicole's performance in The Big Eye Ring. But it wasn't very popular at the time, and Nicole and Cruz occasionally showed their love.

But by now, the divorce is almost certain, and Adrian's rather high-profile attendance at the premiere of The L.A. Secret has made the paparazzi more relevant. However, despite the fact that the gossip was written in great detail, as if someone had seen it with their own eyes, Nicole and Cruz had been divorced in a small part of the vast gossip discontinued.

Anyway, Nicole and Adrian's gossip had no real proof, and Adrian's identity was there, and even the tabloids could only use the phrase "Nicole seduces Adrian”, not “Adrian seduces Nicole”.

“I don't understand. Can't you converge a little? At least it can make the afterlife less troublesome.” Charlize said as he bent over and sorted out the document.

Then she realized something, turned her head, sighed, and simply lay on the desk, looking at Adrian with one hand on her cheek, and clasped one foot behind her: "Is it nice? ”

“Of course, I'm tired of seeing it,” Adrian said with joy, "the curved shape of the narrow skirt wrapped around it is fantastic. ”

Charlize rolled his eyes over his thick face and couldn't help but raise his voice: "Ed.”

“I'm listening, darling," Adrian shrugged, "thank you for everything you've done for me. ”

“I didn't just do this alone, besides, I'm going to take my share... hey...” Charlize was dragged into his arms by Adrian before he finished.

“Thank you, Charlie,” Adrian looked her in the eye and said, “You're the best, you know, so many people in the room, and I'm really glad you're the only one who gave the right answer. ”

“It's nothing. After all, after all this time around you, you can still guess what you're thinking.” Charlize on his thigh responded to his eyes and seemed to want to say something else, but eventually he just sighed.

“Now all you have to do is wait.” Adrian suddenly spoke softly.

Charlize blinked a little incomprehensibly, but he seemed to understand something, and then he stood up: “Your woman is getting more, and... I really don't know what to say about you, Ed... well, to be honest, I think you seem... sexually addicted. ”

“Sex... addiction?” Adrian's face became a little strange, a little surprised and a little funny.

“Where did you hear that word, Charlie?” Adrian asked with interest.

“It's in the book, of course. It's psychological.” Charlize shrugged.

“Can you tell who brought this up first?” Adrian Haha laughed, “I want to thank him on behalf of all the men, who gave the world a good excuse to spend time with men”...
