Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 586: Back on the red carpet

Views:

Yes, after two consecutive Oscar pigeons, Angela is about to step onto the red carpet of this feast again. In fact, according to her idea, she does not plan to participate in this or the next one. Angela, who has experienced countless red carpets, has deeply understood Kayla's sentence "The Oscars are actually a lively dog catwalk show. "The meaning of - of course, Kayla hasn't said this sentence yet, and Angela has not thought about helping her say it.

However, Angela and Kayla have different starting points. She usually needs to dress up for a premiere or an event, which makes her uncomfortable, not to mention showing her breasts on a red carpet such as the Oscars.

You must know that she spends much more time on dressing up than other female stars. They only need to pick out clothes that are distinctive and fit their body shape, but Angela has to consider whether it will disappear or not. Too much exposure, will there be bumps and so on.

Yes, she can also wear a women's suit like the 71st class, but is it not afraid to cause some people's associations if she does so often? At least until she completes her plan, her secrets cannot be discovered.

Angela had to attend this year's Academy Awards because "Brokeback Mountain" received seven nominations! Think about the various turmoil caused by the movie's release, especially the cynicism of the two groups. If she really doesn't attend the awards ceremony, maybe someone will hype it up.

"Frankly, I don't think anyone would plan to kidnap me at the Oscars, Maes." Angela put down what was in her hand and leaned back on the high-backed chair and looked at each other with a half-smile.

Mavis went straight to the back of the desk, threw the document in her hand on the desk and put her arms on the edge: "The most dangerous place is also the safest place, and the same can be said in reverse."

"Okay, okay." Looking at the other party's serious expression, Angela raised her hands and picked up the document on the table to read. But she still couldn't help muttering: "Terrorists are really free."

"It sounds like you want me to leave right away." Maeves narrowed her eyes, with a bit of sarcasm in her tone.

"Huh?" Angela was stunned for a few seconds, then rubbed her nose and said with a smirk: "How come, I hope you stay by your side forever before it's too late, few people can enjoy such free protection."

"I think so too. After all, it's a good thing to spend all the taxpayers' money." Maeves said with a smile on her face, she couldn't tell what she was thinking at all.

"Hey, I'm also one of the taxpayers, Mess, and the tax I pay a year is enough for you to start a few small-scale operations." Angela suddenly showed a dissatisfied look, and turned her head to the side before she became confused again. Looking at Mavis: "What happened, Maes? Why have you become a little..."

Speaking of this, she suddenly showed a narrow smile: "Aren't you... that one is coming?"

Mavis rolled her eyes at her angrily and pointed to the documents on the table: "Instead of spending your time joking, you might as well look at our arrangements first, I don't want to go to the awards ceremony and you start talking here again. No, it's not right there."

"Don't look at it, Mess," Angela smiled as she picked up the document and shook it, "I will not raise any objection, and will implement all your requests without fail."

"When did you become so generous?" Mavis raised her eyebrows.

"Don't say that, Mess, I believe you." Angela blinked slyly, "Besides, you can't make too exaggerated arrangements at the Oscars, can you?"

Speaking of which, her expression suddenly turned away from a smile, and she stood up from the chair and put her hands on Mavis' shoulders and said seriously, "No matter what happens in the future, I'm glad to have you by my side to protect me during this time."

Meiweisi looked at her in a daze, and after a while she suddenly raised her hand as if to comfort Angela's face, but in the end she just brushed the long hair from her temple: "Then that's it."

After turning around and leaving the office, Angela looked at her leaving back inexplicably, always feeling that the other party didn't say anything. She was about to recall it well when the phone on the desk rang, followed by Alizee's voice: "When are you going to delay, Angie? They've been waiting for several minutes."

"Okay, I'll be right there." Angela hurriedly pressed the answer button and said, and then hurriedly collected the information on the table and left the office, naturally forgetting the previous matters.

Although some experience in editing multi-line narratives has been accumulated before, Angela is still as careful as possible when facing "Crash". Like I said before, the film wasn't difficult to make - otherwise how could she have done it in just 6 weeks - but to get the best out of it, it took a lot of editing.

For example, in the sub-shots drawn by Angela based on memory, several times the storytelling angle is switched by pushing the door - when one character pushes the door, another character is also pushing the door, so the story line starts from this person. transferred to another person. Of course, it can also be drinking water, throwing a cup, starting a fire, etc. The props are not the key, the key is the frequency, frequency and place of use.

Where to switch, switch continuously, switch several times in total, etc., these are all things Angela should pay attention to and learn. Of course, this is just an example, there are many other ways and places besides this, like the realization of the calm long-shot of "Brokeback Mountain". Although Angela has not received systematic directing studies, by "redirecting" these excellent films, she has gained far more than going to a film school to study.

Because of her caution, post-production on Crash was slow, but overall it went well, and not so lucky otherwise. Just after being forcibly kissed by Lina that day, the next day there was a tabloid report saying that Miss Angel was kissing the same sex on the Harvard campus, and her sexual orientation was already obvious. Fortunately, they don't have photos, and they use the old "according to people familiar with the matter", so not many people believe this.

Even so, Angela was still a little angry, but before she could go to Lina to settle the account, the other party had already asked someone to bring her a letter of apology. But not so much a letter of apology. Rather, it is better to say that it is a letter of love. First of all, Lina thanked Angela for her rude behavior, still signed the poster as promised and left it with the administrator to wait for her to pick it up; at the same time, she said that the person who broke the news to the tabloid was definitely not her, nor her companion; Finally, two pages of letterhead were used to confide in the love for Angela, which quoted sentences from two Sappho poems and excerpts from Virginia Woolf's masterpiece "Orlando".

"You can see that she is a reserved, shy but aggressive and self-aware girl." Natalie commented after reading the letter, and she didn't seem to feel the letter at all.

"Reserved, shy, aggressive, and self-conscious? I really didn't see so many contradictory personalities in her." Angela, who wanted to observe Natalie's reaction, ended in disappointment.

"She kissed you and ran away, it was shy; when she confessed to you in the letter, she quoted a lot of words from other writers, which was reserved; she kissed you in front of everyone, and wrote a letter confessing that she wanted to make peace with you. You date, it’s aggressive; it’s very self-conscious to announce your sexual orientation early and form a gay club in your school.” Natalie analyzed it one by one, saying that she paused and glanced at Angela. After a glance, he continued: "Of course, psychoanalysis is not completely correct, especially when there are not many references to refer to. People are complex and contradictory, just like... Alma in "Brokeback Mountain" , she knew that her husband was gay and that she had an affair with other men... but she still stubbornly waited, thinking that her husband would come back to her, because she always loved him."

However, with an annoyed look, Angela, who was typing on the keyboard, didn't have any special reaction, she just said perfunctorily: "Yeah, yeah, it's complicated, this is human nature, it's normal."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Natalie's eyes, and she closed the book with a little disinterest: "What kind of reply are you going to give her?"

"Of course it's a stern refusal. Do you want me to agree?" Angela raised her head and asked back.

"That's your business." Natalie got up and went back to the bedroom, Angela was stunned for a few seconds, and finally rubbed her face sadly, looking at the screen with a wry smile and continued typing letters.

Sometimes wishes are good, but reality is cruel. Although Angela rejected Lina in her reply, the other party then wrote again that she hoped to be friends, and repeatedly assured her that she would not cause trouble for her.

Angela originally wanted to ignore it, but as long as she was in school no matter where she went, the other party would always appear in her field of vision. He didn't come over to say hello, just looked at her from a distance. Whenever Angela's eyes swept over, the other party would always lower his head and read a book with a shy smile.

Although she didn't cause any trouble to Angela, it was not pleasant to be followed like this all the time. Especially when there were other people around her, those girls would always talk to Lina with ambiguous smiles, while watching Angela in the distance with meaningful eyes.

The girl wanted to talk to her, but she didn't know what to talk to her for a while. Tell her not to follow him like this? But people have the freedom to come and go, don't they? And where did she get in her way? Even if you want to apply to the court to keep Lina at least 500 feet away from him, there must be solid evidence that she will hurt herself.

It's a pity that Natalie has taken leave to go to Australia to film the location of "Attack of the Clones", and Annie can't give her any better advice. As for Alize, she didn't say anything, she was still staring blankly. In fact, she didn't say "Congratulations, your lover team has expanded again" and so on. It was already a face for Angela.

Fortunately, this situation did not last long. Of course it wasn't that Lina gave up, but Angela returned to Los Angeles.

The Oscar scene is always so full of people. As an annual event in the entertainment industry that attracts the attention of the public, everyone present is dressed in bright clothes and fully shows their beauty.

Especially female stars. They all put a lot of effort into dressing up, they can endure being exposed, but they can't stand wearing shirts - God knows if they will be compared.

However, even wearing those expensive limited-edition designer clothes can not be 100% insurance on this issue, so powerful female stars often choose to make clothes, so this time of year they just spend on dressing expenses. It's enough to make people snort.

But everyone enjoyed it, the stars got the attention, the reporters got the news, and the audience was entertained. This is one of the reasons why every awards ceremony is so lively. This year, though, it's likely that such a scene won't be seen elsewhere. With the Kofa Theater opening and operating well last year, news has emerged that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences intends to make the Kodak Theater the permanent home of the Oscars.

"Hey, look, look, she's here." As the voice rang in the group of reporters, everyone turned their attention to the end of the red carpet. Even the reporters who were interviewing others couldn't help but turn their heads. Although the interviewees were not happy, firstly, it was at the Oscars scene, and there were cameras everywhere. Second, they had a general idea of who was coming. Simply end the conversation and sell favors to reporters.

"Wow, she's so beautiful!" As the car door opened, the girl walked out with a smile, and the crowd immediately burst into amazement, and after a few seconds of absent-mindedness, the sound of the happy door clacked for the first time. stand up.

A beige one-shoulder evening dress set off her graceful figure and showed her slender figure. The long scarf was wrapped around the white gooseneck for a few times and then fell down the back, and the golden brown long scarf that was straightened like a waterfall drooped down. The hair complements each other, giving her a different kind of temperament. Although she only showed her delicate collarbone and a quarter of her back, she was sexy with her own unique elegance and nobility, coupled with a girl's bright smile, enough to make anyone fascinated.

This is probably the third time that Zhi Angela has dressed herself up so carefully. As for the effect, needless to say, just look at the people around you. Of course, there are still complaints.

"I don't understand why she is always like this. She never has bumps or almost transparent fabrics to make clothes. She seldom wears skirts, especially short skirts. It's so difficult to take pictures and let out the light." Some reporters muttered. on.

Although after Angela was 18 years old, journalists can shoot whatever they want in public without fear. But the light can almost never be photographed. She never goes without a bra no matter what she wears, even her evening gowns have nipple stickers on, and she rarely wears short skirts. Plus the bodyguards are always nearby, even if reporters found her on the street and wanted to rush in front of her to block her photos, it was not easy.

As for the most convenient place to take away the light, the beach. Few people go to public beaches to swim. Do reporters still dare to go to private beaches to take pictures? Otherwise, Angela wouldn't mind sending them to the police station or having the bodyguards kill them directly.

No matter how much the reporter grumbled, it was quickly drowned out in the sound of clicking and questioning. After all, although Angela is usually beautiful, the amazing moments shown by such a well-dressed are really poor. If you don't take the time to take a few more pictures, how can you be worthy of the camera in your hand

In the same way, so many things have happened around Brokeback Mountain, which has won seven nominations in the past three months. Don't take the time to ask questions and dig out some news, and then go back and see how the editor-in-chief will deal with you. So, let the unimportant things go.

"Each of the five films is very good, and each has the strength to win the best film."

"Of course I want Brokeback Mountain to win best picture, doesn't Peter want The Lord of the Rings to win best picture? Doesn't Robert want Gosford Park to win best picture?"

"Best director? Then it depends on what the judges mean. After all, it doesn't count if I say it, and it doesn't count if you say it."

"As for being nominated for Best Supporting Actress again, it's nice, but enough, that's it."

After answering a few questions, Angela left the edge of the red carpet with a smile and walked inside, as light as a butterfly, many people couldn't help but press the shutter and took dozens of pictures before giving up.

"Hey, aren't you guys doing a deal here?" Angela came to the three women who were talking and looked at them with leisure. One is Kate wearing a black tube top evening dress she hand-picked, which is simple and elegant; the other is Nicole, who is wearing a deep V-neck with royal blue double straps, which is sexy, gorgeous and charming. Another is... Rachel, who is wearing a goose yellow low-cut evening dress, is intellectual, elegant and warm.

"Hey Angie, oh, you're so pretty." Nicole turned her head in surprise.

"Should I take this as a compliment to deal with. Or a sincere compliment?" Angela blinked.

"Why shouldn't it be a sincere compliment?" Nicole shrugged, looked Angie up and down again, and then sighed exaggeratedly: "I've never seen you so beautiful before, I can't help but feel envious. already."

"Why not jealous?" Angela asked sarcastically.

"Because envy has no use other than making people unhappy, envy can at least give people a little motivation to move forward." Nicole spread her hands and added: "Of course, it's not that delusions exceed your motivation."

"Thank you for your sincere compliment, but if you want me to wish you the best actress, that's impossible," Angela said, looking at Kate, "I would prefer another person to win the little gold. People, unless you've made deals before."

"Is it just a few words to make a deal?" Kate finally spoke, looking at Angela with a smile hidden in her eyes.

"That's not certain, who made you opponents, right, Rachel?" Angela said, looking at Rachel beside Kate.
