The Greatest Showman - Chapter 162

[161 premiere soon]
Rodrigo wiped the sweat from his palms again, took a deep breath, and tried to relax his stiff face, but it was really not an easy task. Originally, he was still worried about whether today’s screening would be too deserted, but it turned out to be overwhelming, and he didn’t even have time to catch his breath.
So, is it all arranged by Andy Rodgers?
Walking into the cinema, under the guidance of the staff, Rodrigo walked in the direction of the screening hall, his throat became dry because he was too nervous. The upsurge of screenings also means that “Buried Alive” will have to face more audiences and more media review. Although the Toronto Film Festival is known for its audience friendliness, in case even the Toronto audience doesn’t like it. Woolen cloth?
The surging pressure made Rodrigo’s heartbeat slowly increase, his stomach rolled a little, and out of the corner of his eye he caught Natalie Portman’s figure inadvertently. She was heading towards the back door of the movie theater, not. In the screening room, Rodrigo was a little surprised. He quickly chased after him and shouted, “Miss Portman.
” No call was heard at all.
Rodrigo quickened his pace, chased after three steps, walked to Natalie’s side, and reminded kindly, “Miss Portman, the projection hall is in that direction, you are going in the wrong direction.”
Natalie Li raised her head, glanced at Rodrigo, and responded with a polite smile, “Don’t worry about me, you all go to the screening room first. I have some lady’s affairs to deal with.” The lady’s thing is the bathroom.
Rodrigo smiled embarrassedly, “Then, see you in the screening hall later.” Then he slowed down, watched Natalie leave, then adjusted his direction and walked towards the screening hall again. Looking up, Rodrigo saw the direction sign above his head: bathroom.
If the bathroom is in this direction, where did Natalie go?
Turning his head, the passage was empty. Rodrigo tilted his head in confusion, and he couldn’t figure it out, but he continued to move forward in doubt, turning back three steps to the screening room.
Natalie left without any hesitation.
She knows that she has no need to stay here. She has no interest in this film, and it is difficult to find an opportunity to create more scandalous hints after the screening. Staying is just a waste of time, and she has to cooperate with Renly To promote his movie; on the contrary, even if she leaves now, the reporter will not find out, at most, she will sneak away before the end of the screening, but it can create a smoke bomb that deliberately avoids the scandal.
Natalie felt a little distracted thinking about Renly’s performance in today’s screening, she was clearly the loser in today’s fight, it felt really bad; Eli Hall, what a tickling tooth. But she doesn’t have time to settle accounts with the self-righteous guy now, she has to concentrate on the potential danger.
In the past few days, they have continued to release rumors, leading to the scandal between her and Renly, but now it seems that Renly has no plans to cooperate, and even turned against the generals; then, the reporter will soon Noticing again the fact that she was watching the movie with Benjamin, and noticing her attempts to divert her target, also meant that the reporters’ suspicions would grow exponentially after the sleight of hand failed.
If they don’t want the “black swan” academy PR to get into a bad situation before it gets underway, then they have to get a head start.
Rodrigo walked quickly into the screening room, and then saw Renly who was chatting and laughing with Rami and James, and his uneasy mood calmed down a little. Coming to Renly’s side, Rodrigo reminded in a low voice, “Renly, I saw Natalie going to the bathroom just now, so I might not be able to keep up with the beginning.”
Renly looked around, and there was indeed no Natalie. figure. However, this is not unusual for Renly. The two of them have always been different from each other. If he changes to Natalie’s position, he will choose to leave. This is the most sensible decision. “Don’t worry about her, she shouldn’t be the protagonist today. Enjoy your moment, we’ve been waiting for this day, haven’t we? This is the Toronto Film Festival, ‘Buried Alive’ is about to meet the audience, you No one else needs to be considered now.”
Feeling Renly’s calm, Rodrigo gradually calmed down, and a smile appeared on his face. Indeed, he should have enough confidence in Renly. The memories of the shooting work on the set flooded into his brain again. Instead of nervousness, he was a little excited. Critics’ reaction.
“This is Toronto,” Rodrigo exclaimed.
Renly showed a big smile, “This is Toronto.”
Tessa Britton followed Chanel Laurent step by step, her eyes showing incredible surprise, “You mean, in the youth hostel He gave such a wonderful performance in the hall of the 1980s that all the onlookers couldn’t tell whether it was reality or performance?”
Chanel nodded, affirming, “That’s why I made a special trip to Toronto just because I wanted to. I want to watch this movie for the first time.” Chanel showed a bright smile, and his mood couldn’t help but jump up, “Believe me, watching it live, the kind of truth and shock is far more impactful than the description of words. “Chanel said expectantly, “By the way, two weeks ago, he also relied on ‘Pacific War’ to win the Emmy Award for Best Actor in a Miniseries. Obviously, I am not the only one who thinks he is a good actor. “‘War in the Pacific’?” Tessa repeated, “I’ve heard of this show, is it made by the original cast
of ‘Band of Brothers’?” Sha suddenly realized, “I’m not very interested in war works, I haven’t seen them before; but now, I’m interested.”
Tessa clenched her fists, anyway, what she wanted to watch was not the drama itself, but the blue present. Watching handsome guys on the big screen is a delight in itself, and as for whether the episode is good or bad, what does that matter? She has secretly decided to turn out “The Pacific War” to watch when she returns home.
Tessa and Chanel followed the crowd into the screening room. The turbulent crowd boiled in the limited space. There was a suffocating heat and agitation. Tessa saw at a glance the man standing in the open space in front of the first row. Renly, I can’t help but get excited, and there is Ryan!
Tessa couldn’t help but clenched her fists tightly and stomped her feet in place with excitement. She originally just wanted to take a close look at Ryan next to the red carpet, but she had an unexpected surprise! Not only did I see Renly, but I also saw Ryan and Renly standing side by side! Seeing the two handsome guys talking and laughing, Tessa was so excited that her body trembled uncontrollably.
“Ryan!” Tessa couldn’t hold back her emotions and shouted uncontrollably. She knew this was a movie theater and she knew it was rude, but she just couldn’t control her excitement, “Renly!
” , Ryan and Renly both turned their heads and quickly found the source of the sound. Ryan raised his right hand high and waved it; while Renly, who was standing beside him, showed a big smile, tilted his head and said something to Ryan, but Ryan couldn’t help but smile.
“Renly!” Tessa’s voice burst out of her throat again, and her whole body was shaking. She felt that all this was too beautiful, too beautiful to be ridiculous, as if the world was covered with a thin layer of light Halo, beautiful. There was a push from the crowd behind them, and they seemed very dissatisfied with the pause here. Tessa was pushed forward, but her eyes still stayed on Renly and Ryan, and she was reluctant to leave.
Gavin Hunter raised his head and looked at the screening hall. The 300 seats were almost full. Then he looked at the crowd that kept pouring in behind him. If nothing else, the cinema would be full.
Although this is a small venue, “Buried Alive” is the most under-appreciated of the fifty-one participating films at this year’s Toronto Film Festival, with no big-name stars, no big-name directors, no local advantages, or even any publicity. , even if it was a global screening, it was still lukewarmly thrown at an awkward time like four o’clock in the afternoon. Considering such a background, the venue is actually full, which is really too rare.
Gavin has some vague expectations. As Ryan said, what kind of work will Renly appear in?
“Hey, man.” A call came from his side, Gavin turned his head, and the other party gave a smile, “Daisy Lucas, ‘Vanity Fair’. At the screening just now, Renly said he and Ray En is dating, what the hell is this?” Daisy followed in Gavin’s footsteps, she knew that Gavin was probably the only one in the know.
Not only the meme she just said, it is very likely that Gavin also knows something about the situation between Natalie and Renly.
Gavin didn’t think much about it, he smiled and briefly summed up what happened when he met Renly and Natalie, and then met Renly and Ryan.
But Daisy immediately caught the anomaly, “You mean, Renly didn’t watch the movie with Natalie, but with Ryan? And Natalie watched the movie with Benjamin?” Daisy felt that she seemed to catch the When a glimmer of inspiration arrives, things seem to be more complicated than imagined, yet simpler.
“That’s right.” Gavin nodded, and then realized that not only Daisy, but also the reporters in the surrounding circle stretched their ears, looking thoughtful. Only then did Gavin realize that he seemed to have missed something, and then leaked something. He quickly shut up and thought about it seriously, but he didn’t have a clue.
“The movie screening is about to start.” Gavin looked at the gradually dimming lights, and quickly found an empty seat and sat down. Regardless of the gossip off the court, what he is really curious about today is “buried alive”!
