I’m in Hollywood - Chapter 153
[Chapter 150 Opening]
As soon as the two walked into the screening room, Drew shook off Nicole and ran to the front row of the crew.
Nicole only saw Drew mutter a few words to Tom Hanks, who was sitting next to Eric, and Hanks smiled and got up and gave her the seat.
Although she is very envious, Nicole is very clear that she is not even qualified to sit in the front row, let alone let anyone in the front row give her a seat. Although she is a little unwilling, the girl still looks for it in the middle of the theater. A seat was taken.
There were more and more people in the screening room. Before I knew it, a gentle man in his thirties with glasses sat down beside the girl. The man seemed to glance at the girl unintentionally, showing a just right look of surprise. , as if she had just discovered the beautiful girl around her, and took the initiative to say hello: “Hi, hello.”
Although the man’s tone is very casual, the girl who often encounters a similar situation realizes the other party’s intention to strike up a conversation as soon as the man sits next to her. , Although there is some disgust in his heart, but the other party greets so politely, Nicole is not easy to ignore, and the tone is flat: “Hello.” The
man doesn’t care about Nicole’s indifference. If you are cold at the beginning, you will retreat, and you will never try to get a woman: “Forgive my abruptness, miss, but you are so beautiful, especially your hairstyle, which matches your facial contours, making you look different. The cool and glamorous temperament of a classical beauty. You know, many girls are used to perming their hair into fluffy little waves, but in my opinion, that hairstyle is like a bird’s nest. There are
really too few girls.”
Nicole heard the man’s compliment, her expression did not show the joy of being praised, but an embarrassed look flashed, and she replied helplessly: “Thank you for your compliment, sir.”
“You’re welcome .
,” the man said with a smile. “My name is George Northam, and I’m a film critic for Premiere.”
“You can call me Nicole.”
“Nicole, is that N-I-C-O-L-E? Wow, I suddenly realized that the name was just for you, ‘Nicole’ is Greek for appearance Beautiful and delicate, but a strong and independent young woman at heart.”
George Northam was about to say something, when the lights in the projection room dimmed, for some reason, remembering Eric’s indifference to her during this time, girl On the contrary, he was somewhat disgusted by the attentive approacher, and reminded softly: “The movie has begun, Mr. Northam.”
“Of course, I understand.” George Northam realized that he was too eager, and quickly sat upright and turned his eyes. transferred to the screen.
After the title of the Statue of Liberty in Colombia, the little girl in the red hoodie released the fireflies, drew a string of beautiful characters and rushed to the sky, turning into the brightest star in the sky. After that, the picture fell into a short period of time. In the darkness, the sound of footsteps rang out, as if tapping on the hearts of the audience, but the picture of the movie still did not appear immediately, and the list of the main creators began to appear on the screen.
In the curious anticipation of everyone, the picture finally lit up. In the dim corridor, Tom Cruise with sunglasses climbed the stairs expressionlessly, and at the same time, sang with a mysterious and sad male voice. rang.
Nicole was staring at the screen intently, but two girls whispered behind her, who should be Cruise fans.
“Oh god, I suddenly found out that my little Tommy walks so handsomely, Mickey, I can’t take it anymore.”
“Me too,
me too, Erica, we’ll have to go up later. Ask Tommy for autographs.”
Actually, Nicole felt the same way, although she didn’t know why.
Fortunately, there was a professional film critic next to him. George Northam also heard the emotion of the two Cruise female fans behind him. He approached the girls and explained softly: “This is the result of the atmosphere, the echoes of footsteps, mysterious chants, and cold shots. And the silent protagonist makes for a very infectious picture, so it’s not surprising that they feel that way. Eric Williams is a genius, just a few simple shots, highlighting the relationship with The style of his first two films is completely different. If you adjust the lighting to normal, remove the soundtrack and echo, even if you replace it with other soundtracks, then these shots will not achieve the same effect, this kind of thing seems simple, But being able to perfectly blend several elements together to form an irresistible appeal requires high artistic attainments.” When picking up
girls, talking about other men in front of women is obviously not a wise behavior , but George Northam regards Nicole as an ordinary movie fan. He doesn’t think the girl sitting here will have the opportunity to contact Eric, let alone meet Eric, so he is not stingy. Praise Eric, and at the same time show off his professionalism in film appreciation without a trace.
After arriving on the rooftop, as the camera followed, the style of the soundtrack gradually became heavier. After the male protagonist stepped onto the edge of the rooftop, the screen began to switch between memory and reality. The conversation between the doctors, explaining to the audience that Andy had only four weeks left to live.
“Wow, Tommy isn’t going to jump off the building, right?” The worried voice of the girl behind her sounded again, which was actually the common voice of many fans in the theater.
Another girl immediately hugged her companion and comforted her: “No, no, Erica, you see Tommy is carrying a backpack. He must have other things. If a person wants to jump off a building, what is he doing with a backpack on his back.
” Mickey, do you think Tommy will die?”
“Certainly not, I’ve heard a lot of reports of terminal cancer patients surviving, and this is a movie. Any kind of miracle can happen in a movie. He never died in the movie, he will never die.”
“I hope so.” Erica folded her arms in front of her chest and made a prayerful look, while looking forward to Cruise standing on Tiantai Mountain to receive her. down action.
But the movie didn’t immediately reveal the answer to the audience. After the title of “Dark War” was typed, the screen shifted to a restaurant. Sean, played by Hanks, was enjoying breakfast while reading the newspaper. The camera quickly swung towards the restaurant. At the bar, Andy, who also looked calm, was eating breakfast, and at the same time looked up at the sitcom on TV, with a touch of reluctance and nostalgia in his eyes.
The two protagonists appeared at the same time, and the audience thought that the two would have a confrontation in this restaurant. After all, the name of the movie was “Dark War”, but the picture was quickly cut into other scenes again.
“I dare say that this scene of Cruise will be repeated again and again, this is a time hint set by the director, Nicole, have you noticed the look of Cruise, he only has four weeks to live, so, Whether it’s eating, drinking, or watching TV, his expression is full of focus and nostalgia, as if he wants to use the remaining four weeks to engrave all the beauty in this world into his soul, I dare say Crewe He will definitely die in the ending.” George Northam next to him couldn’t help showing off again.
Nicole just nodded slightly to indicate that she heard the other party’s words, her eyes were still fixed on the screen, and the girl began to slowly enter the plot.
Inside the blockade, Sean got out of the car, hurriedly entered a police car, and said to the police chief Ian Spay, played by Joe Pesci, who was wearing an inspector general-level uniform and a bulletproof vest: “Follow me. Has the robber ever been in contact with the robber?”
Ian’s eyes flickered: “It took 20 minutes to talk.”
Sean immediately raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look at Ian in surprise: “You went to talk? You must say you are Los Angeles. Central District Police Chief Ian Spay, disarm and surrender in three minutes, right?”
Ian shook his head embarrassedly, then realized that Sean was now his subordinate, not the famous one. The elite of the police force, so he cocked his neck and turned his eyes to the side, looking like how can you take me.
This section of Joe Pesci’s performance is very happy in terms of language and gestures, and the audience has begun to smile.
Although Sean was a little helpless, he still let people play the negotiation recording.
One hand pressed the play button, and Joe Pesci’s special voice came out immediately.
“Hey, I’m Ian Spay
, the chief of the Los Angeles Central District Police Department. You have been surrounded by me. Disarm and surrender within three minutes.”
Look out of the car window.
In the recording, the robber put forward a series of conditions. Ian heard that the other party wanted a bulletproof car and couldn’t help but retorted: “Why don’t you want a helicopter?”
Hearing this, Sean shook his head and stomped hard. Stamping his feet, there was a helplessness in his tone that hated iron and steel: “Hey, if you don’t understand, don’t talk nonsense!”
The atmosphere that Hanks and Joe Pesci had created for the audience before also broke out at this moment, accompanied by Following Sean’s frantic actions, after hearing this line, the audience burst into laughter for the first time in the theater.
