"God, this is all crazy, are they crazy?"
David Fincher has been rolling around in Hollywood for nearly three decades, going through the final glory of the 80s and 90s, touching countless top stars, and when he has to admit, he has never seen such a sight, not even a cloth. Ladd-Pitt didn't get that treatment either.
David opened his eyes involuntarily, and his expression was slightly out of control. He didn't like to express his opinions too much on the topic of gossip. At this time, he couldn't find the right words to accurately express his emotions. He just frowned slightly. , carefully observing the unfamiliar scene in front of him.
Finally, David turned to Rooney, "Why am I here?"
Originally, he thought of making a special trip to cheer for Renly, at least to express some gratitude; but now it seems that he does not need his support at all, and such a lively scene is comparable to Oscar night. What event can detonate such a frenzy.
So, the first thought in David's mind was to turn around and leave: he didn't like occasions like this—
Or it should be said that "not suitable" is more accurate; especially in recent years, under the oppression of two sets of tights in Hollywood, his creative space is being severely tested, and an irritability inevitably breeds deep in his heart. It became less and less interesting, and it could even be said to be "rejection".
But David is not a freak who can't fit in. He also knows that he appeared on the scene of the Chinese Theater. If he turns around and leaves now, then the news will become news, and the reporter will definitely not let him off easily; He stayed quietly at the scene, but no one noticed.
"For Renly?" Rooney raised her final voice and guessed the answer.
David glanced at Rooney with a look of helplessness in his eyes, "Look at the scene, he doesn't need me. I'm serious, we are now in the middle of the crowd, this is the carnival, I once participated in Brazil once Carnival, today's grand occasion reminds me of those days again."
"I guess there's no way we can deny that." Rooney shrugged and responded with a chuckle. "He's got everything people want."
"I have no way to raise an objection." David's expression was different from his words, and there was no disguise in the expression of disgust, "He can win everything, I mean, anything he wants, I don't Think someone can say 'no' to him."
"Including you." This is an affirmative sentence, and Rooney has come to a conclusion directly.
David opened his mouth slightly, thought about it seriously, but found that he couldn't refute, and then he had another doubt, "Rooney, why do you think? Why is Renly willing to invest in my project? I mean , even HBO is skeptical, they don't think this series is worth developing, it may not be able to attract audiences, and there is no reason for Renly to take the risk, is there?"
"Then do you want Renly to nod?" Rooney asked in return, and David looked at Rooney blankly. No expression was needed to show his attitude:
Does that even need to be said
Rooney didn't chase after him, "David, if I say that even though Renly has everything, he still concentrates on performing and creating, do you believe it?"
David did not speak.
"The only reason Renly founded Sisyphus Films is to use his influence to free the film industry from the influence of straitjackets and allow art creators to get more creative space. He hopes to see more different Different styles of work, that's a good thing."
Rooney's words made David frown slightly again, cast an incredible look, and be a little confused, "Are you serious?"
Rooney didn't answer, just shrugged, "David, what did Brad set up Plan B Films for?"
Plan B Pictures is a film company established by Brad Pitt in 2004. The first work produced is "Troy", which is teamed up with Warner Bros.
Just like the name of the company, this is Brad's "Plan B", and he hopes to find a breakthrough in his acting career:
On the one hand, he needs to further cooperate with the film company to gain more benefits for himself; on the other hand, after the "Eleven Arhats" in 2001, Brad fell into a low point in his career in 2002 and 2003, and for two years None of the starring works has come out. He needs to seek more guarantees and more possibilities outside of the actor's work. To establish a film company is to initially set foot in the field of producers and expand more possibilities for himself.
In fact, it's not just Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio, all of them.
In the final analysis, their thinking angle is still "actors", looking forward to opening up more possibilities for their acting careers and continuing the development of their acting careers.
Rooney didn't wait for David's answer either, she just paused for a moment to let David understand the meaning of her words, and then she continued, "But what they're after, Renly had already done before Sisyphus Pictures. With it, he doesn't need to seek breakthroughs and development in his career."
Renly already has all of the things other actors have sought to set up studios for. The most important thing is that Renly's actor career still hasn't touched the ceiling. Whether it is awards or box office, whether it is popularity or attention, Renly is still standing at the pinnacle of his career.
Without much explanation, the scene above Hollywood Boulevard at this moment is the best proof.
"David, there is only one reason why Renly invested in your project, because he wants you to complete the project according to your own vision." Rooney finally came to a conclusion and answered David's question in such a way .
David is not a personality that can be easily persuaded. He still has his own ideas, he still has his own suspicions, he needs time to observe slowly, and then through his own integration and thinking, he can come to a conclusion, for Rooney's opinion. David still remains skeptical.
"Why do I feel like you've become his lobbyist?" David said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Rooney didn't panic, but shrugged with a chuckle, "Maybe I am. But, David, why do you think I'd help to convince you? What exactly is Renly's purpose? What does Renly want? What can I gain from you? And what can I gain from it?"
A series of question marks were thrown like this.
With his hands behind his back, David stared at Rooney meaningfully, but deep in his eyes he was thinking.
Then Rooney's eyes flashed a sly light, "David, maybe I'm looking forward to getting a role in your project?"
"Haha, it's very funny." David said without a smile - there is no need for Rooney to fight for it at all. David has been looking forward to working with Rooney again, and it is still the same now, as long as Rooney nods, "Mind Hunter" The role of Rooney is to be chosen by Rooney, which is David's consistent attitude.
Ahh!
Ahh!
At this point, uncontrolled screams from the red carpet interrupted the conversation between David and Rooney.
David opened his mouth and said something, but let's not say Rooney, even he couldn't hear himself, and didn't understand what he said at all.
David and Rooney exchanged a look, and they were 100% sure: Renly came.
Standing in the second half of the red carpet at the Chinese Theater, David couldn't help but stop. He crossed the roaring crowd and the steaming heat to find Renly at the end of the red carpet. He couldn't help thinking:
Indeed, Renly had it all. In fact, as long as Renly starts to fight for it, even top companies like Disney and Warner Bros. are willing to meet Renly's needs, what producer rights, what specific project selection rights, what screenwriting rights and co-star selection rights, etc. Wait, he can call the wind and rain; but those things that ordinary people dream of have never been the focus of Renly.
So why did Renly set up Sisyphus Pictures
In the hustle and bustle of the heat wave, David tried to explore the deep affection on Renly's handsome face and the truth hidden behind the mask; but in the end, David turned around, joined Rooney, and both walked in. I went to the Chinese Theater, but left behind a commotion.
Ahh!
But even so, the deafening cheers and shouts of landslides and fissures can still be clearly felt. "From the Chinese Theater all the way to Universal Studios", Ryan Gosling's lighthearted joke made all the guests laugh happily. Getting up and complaining about Renly behind your back is also a great fun today.
In addition to actors and directors, senior reporters and professional film critics from major newspapers and magazines also arrived at the scene tonight. Such a grand lineup is comparable to the grand occasion of the awards season film screening invitation. You can always hear the roar of mountains and tsunamis outside the theater.
Biquge
The continuous eruption of passion was even fiercer than that of a volcano, which also caused the air at the scene to gradually heat up, as if it could reach the boiling point at any time.
Then, the fireworks show began.
boom!
Boom!
In the boundless darkness of the night, one after another, gorgeous fireworks bloomed proudly, and the colorful colors rendered a bright and colorful halo, flickering, flickering... The bright and splendid light sprinkled from top to bottom, projected on a On Zhang Zhang's raised face, a fascinated look was reflected, all the noise and cheers were quiet, only the sound of fireworks blooming in his ears, the rhythm of the heart beating is the only rhythm.
It seems that the whole world is just oneself and fireworks. The fleeting splendor and the loneliness of being in the crowd have reached a delicate point at this moment, which makes people immersed in it, and even the audience on Hollywood Boulevard can't help it. He cast his gaze in the direction of Universal Studios.
At this moment, even Renly and "Jurassic World" couldn't take away the light of the fireworks. They stood quietly at the entrance of the Chinese Theater, joined the crowd, raised their heads together, looked at the gorgeous sky, and enjoyed this scene. A magnificent spectacle created by humans.
