but everything is not over yet. After the second week, according to the box office statistics, the box office trend of “Cry on the Island” has no tendency to slip, even in the first few jobs. During the day, the box office also saw a small increase.
“It’s very simple, because of the suspense!” In the banquet hall of the Sunset Tower Hotel, facing Jonathan Demme’s curious question, Eric said: “In “Cry on the Island”, I set up enough suspense, such as grid The fog in Ruisi’s house, such as the dream that Grace had at the beginning of the scene, and the deep meanings in many lines. The most important thing is the unexpected ending of the reversal of human beings and ghosts at the end, all of which attract people to think about Fans who want to get to the bottom of the story repeatedly walk into the cinema. You must know that human beings are the most curious animals, and I specially gave Disney ideas to guide in newspapers or TV programs, so as to maximize the curiosity of movie fans. Since then, we have the current situation.”
“Then, if enough analysis of the plot of the movie appeared in the newspapers, and all the suspense was gradually solved, does it mean that the box office potential of this movie is Is that the end of it?” Jonathan Demme asked again.
Eric shook his head and showed a sly smile: “It’s inevitable that this kind of analysis will appear in film reviews, but don’t worry, the situation you said can’t happen. Because many problems come to the end Controversy will arise. Like why Grace killed her two children, even in the three-hour cut of Venice’s participation, there is no clear answer, only some specious hints in the character’s language. According to These hints, some people may think. It was because the Nazi soldiers occupied the island. In order to avoid the enemy’s search, Grace covered the two children to keep them from making a sound, but she made a mistake and killed her own children. Some would say that, as suggested, Grace probably killed the child after the war, then she probably killed the child out of sheer madness, or for some other reason. All in all. It’s hard to come up with a single answer, And in order to find more evidence to convince the other party, someone will look again.”
Jonathan Demme seemed to understand something and nodded.
Immediately, he asked again: “Eric, when I made this movie, I almost memorized the script, but I really didn’t find out why Grace killed her two children, you must know, right? , what’s going on?”
“This. I don’t know either.”
Jonathan Demme looked at Eric in disbelief, raised his voice and asked in surprise: “You…you don’t know either?”
“Yes Ah. Because I never thought about it, in the first place, I didn’t think of any reason why Grace killed her two children. I just wrote this story, and in the story, Grace killed her two children, and then have everything in the mansion.”
Jonathan Demi laughed, and suddenly realized: “No wonder you didn’t worry about anything just now, I think, not just this matter, maybe there is a lot of suspense in it. , you don’t have the right answer yourself, do you?”
“Bingo!” Eric smiled and snapped his fingers.
The two laughed wickedly together, and Jonathan Demme said again: “By the way, Eric, Miss Murdoch contacted me about the script of The Silence of the Lambs, I heard you like it , I agreed.”
Eric was stunned, thinking that Jonathan Demme would not bring this up without any reason, and asked, “Is there any problem?”
“Yes,” Jonathan Demme Nodding: “Yes, Miss Murdoch said, you recommend Jodie Foster to play the heroine. But after reading the script several times, I think that maybe Michelle
Pfeiffer
is more suitable.”
Ke recalled for a moment,
and quickly remembered the information of this woman.
Although Michelle Pfeiffer has good acting skills and has been nominated for several Oscars in her previous life, she has never had any representative works. Moreover, this blonde beauty has the temperament and memory of Clary, played by Jodie Foster in “Silence of the Lambs”. Silk doesn’t have much in common.
Although Eric very much hopes that Jodie Foster will play the heroine, if Jonathan Demme insists, he will not intervene too much. After all, Eric still feels that this film has nothing to do with him. relation.
Because of Xiao Nizi’s deliberate concealment, Eric noticed that the last time he saw Xiao Nizi’s credit card information, he found that the money for the acquisition of the adaptation rights was a little too much, but he did not hide it from himself. Think about the direction of 3 million dollars, and even if he finds out, he will only hold down the little girl and spank it.
So he doesn’t know yet about Drew’s 30% stake in tg films.
“Why do you think Michelle Pfeiffer is suitable?” After thinking for a while, Eric pushed the question to Jonathan Demme.
“I’ve seen a few of Michelle Pfeiffer’s films, especially Dangerous Relationships, which earned her an Oscar nomination last year, as well as other films with Jack Nicholson, Cher, and “The Witch of East Town” starring Susan Sarandon, Michelle Pfeiffer’s acting skills are sufficient, and the characters she plays are diverse. She is a very malleable actress. I think she will definitely be able to make carat Liz’s role is more perfect.”
Eric nodded, because of the success of “Cry on the Island”, Jonathan Demme has become a first-line director, although he knows that if he expresses his opinion, he is still grateful that he gave it to him. Jonathan of his chances is sure to compromise.
But he’s not a producer now, and it’s just offensive to meddle in it.
And, maybe you can see if Michelle Pfeiffer, the heroine of “Silence of the Lambs”, would perform the same Effect, it’s still quite interesting to imagine, isn’t it?
According to Jonathan Demme’s style, then, this movie must be almost the same as the previous life. If you change the heroine, you can verify again whether the role makes the actor or the actor makes the character.
“Then do it according to your own ideas. I believe you will definitely be able to make this movie well, as long as you can convince Liz that it will be fine for anyone to play the heroine.”
Jonathan Demme said confidently. Nodding, talking a few words, and the two separated from each other.
Eric was socializing among the people at the party. When passing a dining table, he overheard a few people gathered together and seemed to be talking about something, as if it had something to do with “Cry on the Island”, so he moved up curiously.
