"Do you know, Kate, my full name is Famke Berman Jensen. In fact, my nickname is Fang Ji, which is what my parents call me, but Eric keeps calling me Famke. For a few days, I couldn’t help correcting him, and then he said that he was right, and found a lot of reasons by citing extensively, which was really funny and urgent, haha.”
Catherine Bigelow glanced at the two men, and then leaned in front of Famke Jansen: "He is a little guy who has just turned twenty, and it's inevitable that he will be a bit willful."
"You little bastard is about the same," Famke Jansen said in an intimate tone typical of lovers.
Catherine Bigelow also whispered: "Actually, Jim is also like this. Both of them are paranoid."
"Hey, Fammy, my hearing is 1.5 in both ears, don't think I can't hear," Eric, who was discussing special effects with Cameron, suddenly raised his head and showed Famke Jansen A threatening look, and Cameron looked up at his wife at this time, with a smirk on his mouth.
Catherine Bigelow stared back in dissatisfaction: "Today was supposed to be discussing "Point Horror", you two are wasting my time now, I didn't say anything, what qualifications do you have to express dissatisfaction?" of?"
Ai], Rick just looked at his watch. It was already a quarter past ten, and the Cameron couple came over at nine o'clock. Now it has been more than an hour. Cameron also realized this, and said reluctantly : "Eric, can you show me the scripts of those disaster movies, and then you can discuss the movie with Kate."
"Of course no problem," Eric opened the safe. He took out the scripts of several films such as "Tornado" and handed them to Cameron: "I don't plan to direct all of these films myself. Take a look. If you are interested, maybe you can choose one to direct yourself."
Cameron nodded noncommittally. Although he was very interested in the ideas of these films, whether he could cooperate in the end would depend on the quality of the script and the conditions offered by Eric. Because of the "Piranha 2" incident that year, Cameron hated others to dictate the movies he directed, and Eric is obviously a guy with a strong desire for control, if Eric doesn't give him enough control. Even if Cameron is interested, he will not take over the project.
After receiving Eric's script, Cameron couldn't wait to open the top "Tornado" and read it, and soon entered the plot.
Eric came to the sofa, sat down next to Famke Jansen, and said to Catherine Bigelow on the other side: "Ms. Bigelow, show me the script of "Point Horror."
Catherine Bigelow took out the script of "Point of Horror" from the satchel she always carried and handed it over, along with a seven or eight-page sub-volume: "The above is the script, and the bottom is me and Jim these days. The resulting budget is around $20 million."
The $20 million budget is very conservative for this project. However, Catherine Bigelow's tone was still slightly unconfident. The few films she directed before were all at a small cost of two or three million.
Eric put the budget sheet aside, opened the script and read it.
The actor is a man named Johnny. Utah was originally a promising football player, but he had to give up his career because of a knee injury. After graduating from the police academy, he became an FBI agent.
Eric finds this setting very interesting, because Katherine Bigelow's favorite actor is Keanu Reeves. In reality, Keanu Reeves was originally a promising hockey player, but also because of a knee injury, he finally switched careers and became an actor.
A group of crazy bank robbers appeared in Los Angeles. Wearing the head masks of the former presidents of the United States, they robbed more than 20 banks in a row. In 90 seconds, the cash in the counter of the robbed bank was wiped out and then left in a hurry. The method was clean and neat without leaving too many traces, so they succeeded frequently, and the FBI was helpless.
Young, frivolous and full of passion, Johnny Utah persuaded his boss, Angelo Pappas, an old FBI fritter who was always immersed in the glory of the past, and the two embarked on a hunt for these crazy fugitives journey.
From the clues accumulated in more than 20 robberies in the past, Angelo Pappas locked the identity of the robbers on a group of surfers. In order to get close to the surfers on La Digo Beach in Los Angeles, Johnny Utah began to learn to surf , and made up an identity close to the beautiful surfing coach Taylor Dickert whose parents died. While the two developed feelings, Johnny met the crazy surfer Baotie through Taylor. Johnny soon discovered that Baotie and his His companions are likely to be the group of bank robbers, and through the final whereabouts of Bowty, this is finally determined.
But Bautie and his partners escaped from Johnny and Angelo during another bank robbery, and Johnny's identity as an FBI agent was also exposed.
Because there was not enough evidence left, Johnny could not directly arrest Bautie and others, but after discussing with his companions, Bautie kidnapped Johnny's girlfriend Taylor, threatening Johnny to do what he said.
Baotie took Johnny to rob the bank for the last time, and went skydiving together. In the end, the desperate and crazy factor deep in Johnny's heart was aroused, and he and Baotie had a sympathetic resonance. During the last arrest, Johnny released the handcuffs on Bautie's hand, let Bautie step on the surfboard and rush towards Australia's astronomical tide once in 50 years, and he himself threw away the badge of the FBI agent Into the sea.
Although many points of view in the script seem far-fetched, overall, this is a story of self-pursuit.
Johnny Utah originally thought that his goal was to become a top FBI agent. For this reason, he would do everything possible, such as fabricating a lie about the death of his parents in order to get close to Taylor without any pressure, but in the end, Johnny found out that he became An FBI elite is not what he wants, that will only make him a person like his boss Angelo Pappas, Angelo is an FBI elite, in order to explore the use of a certain essential oil left by the robbers' shoes , Angelo Pappas has studied hundreds of essential oils, and even became an expert in this field, but he is still a frustrated person who is difficult to get promoted. On the contrary, his younger and mediocre colleagues are all riding in the on his head. (To be continued..)
