The Greatest Showman - Chapter 2479

“…Obviously, they only see the benefits now, and refuse to take risks and try, or hit the Oscars. All the movies are swarming towards the golden statues. In order to please the academy judges, they have completely abandoned their own styles and ideas. The damned Weinstein brothers totally ruined the awards season.”

“Either learn superheroes, the year ‘Iron Man’ came out, and I remember everyone hating vampires and ranting about the vulgarity and cheapness of vampires; then one night In between, everyone started donning hero suits and superman capes, and what’s the difference between that stupid look and a vampire? That damn Disney!”

“‘Gone Lover’ – no need to misread what I mean, I love this work, and I love the experience with Ben and Rosamund, but it’s not what I wanted to do, it’s a compromise.”

“Twentieth Century Fox, they thought ‘Mindhunter’ was too bold. Too challenging to be worth trying, instead ‘Gone Love’ has some gimmicks to film and see because ‘At least there’s a story’ and then that happens. I did it in the style I imagined movie, but in my opinion, this is just a pre-exercise of ‘Mind Hunter’, and I hope 20th Century Fox can see that such a story still has an audience market.”

“But…”

However, “Gone Lover” achieved huge Success, but still failed to impress 20th Century Fox, and still failed to impress Netflix or HBO. “Mind Hunter” is still excluded from the two sets of tights, and David is still begging everywhere like a beggar.

Outrageous!

David’s anger can be deeply felt inside and outside of his words, and he can even see the anger that is burning in his chest, rising uncontrollably.

Then Renly took over, “Like two tights.”

David’s eyes lit up, “Yes! It’s like two sets of tights!” This is really a more apt and accurate description, which made David clapp his hands and laugh in a refreshing way, and then he couldn’t help shaking his head. Whispered twice, “Tights, tights,” and the smile rose once again.

When he came back to his senses, David noticed Renly’s gaze, and his expression was slightly embarrassed.

But Renly just pretended not to see it—first he leaked his thoughts, then David yelled, and the two of them behaved a little bit abnormally, just back and forth to even out.

“Early last year, I mentioned it with Robert Redford, Joel Cohen and Ethan Cohen when they met at Sundance. Obviously, we didn’t want to wear tights.” Blue Li said jokingly, made a light-hearted relief for David, and continued to deepen the conversation.

David looked at Renly with a half-smiling smile,

“Are you serious? You, Joel, Ethan and the others have already taken the golden statuette, and you have taken two.” There was inevitably some resentment between the words. ——Complaining

about the Oscars is one thing, but not complaining about the Oscars themselves, but complaining that the major studios refuse to open their eyes to cater to the tastes of the Oscars, which makes the film production market more and more boring, and naturally, the Oscars are the same.

And that’s what made it so exciting after “Boom Drummer” broke the ice earlier this year.

But in fact, as far as the Oscar itself is concerned, this is still the highest affirmation in the industry, and David also hopes to be affirmed – in the case of insisting on his own style and characteristics, so that works such as “Social Network” or “Seven Deadly Sins” can be affirmed, This is undoubtedly a goal of his career.

“Gone Lover” had a chance, but he was left behind again in the second stage of the awards season. David’s grief and anger can no longer be described in words.

Therefore, for Renly and the Coen brothers, David will inevitably have some resentment and envy, especially Renly, he relied on himself to the end.

It is no exaggeration to say that Renly is the only one in the entire Hollywood film industry who still has his own style, and different styles can persuade film companies to buy it. He has truly conquered Hollywood with his talent and ability. That’s what makes him special.

But the complaints returned, David still maintained a good attitude, shook his head left and right, and said, “Well, if it’s you and the Coen brothers, it’s acceptable.”

This made Renly a little dumbfounded.

“So, is that why you set up Sisyphus Pictures?” David recalled Rooney’s words again.

Renly nodded affirmatively, “We are trying to survive and defend our persistence, then we must unite.”

David now finally believes, not only because of Renly’s words, but because of the context from beginning to end It fits, and if it’s a hoax and Renly is the “Wolf of Wall Street” swindler, then David admits it too –

because deep down he wants it to be true; because he really He really needs allies urgently, otherwise the future of this road is really too confusing, and he doesn’t know what to do; because he also refuses to despair, expecting that Hollywood can really seize a glimmer of light, so that the film industry can still persevere .

Raising his head, David’s eyes fell on Renly once again. Now he can finally understand Don Quixote’s mentality. The joy and happiness that he finally found a companion after a long walk alone is indescribable in any language. , just want to be immersed in it like a moth to a flame.

Even if all this is just a short-lived dream, just like the “Hollywood Dream”, I know that only the best, sweetest and happiest parts are shown under the bright spotlight, and the reality is bound to be more cruel, but I am still willing to deceive Just believe it yourself.

What’s more, all this was not a dream, because Renly was still holding on – it was so beautiful that it didn’t feel realistic, so that people began to doubt it.

“Then you have to play ‘Mind Hunter,'” David blurted out.

Renly looked confused, “What?” Where is this and where?

Throwing out a heavyweight without warning, the topic can’t be connected.

David had to explain further, “You are now in a state of confusion and fatigue, unable to take any interest; but the ‘Mind Hunter’ can help you, just as the ‘Zodiac’ and the current ‘Mind Hunter’ helped me .”

Ren Li frowned slightly and laughed dumbly, “No, I don’t think so, David, I’m not you…”

“No no, you didn’t understand what I meant, I should say, I didn’t express what I meant clearly. “David was a little excited, and his words were a little confusing.

David paused, took a deep breath, regained control of his emotions, and then said, “I know our styles and genres are not the same, but first of all, you must admit that you have not shot a crime theme work so far. , and psychological suspense, this is a brand new challenge.”

Ren Li pursed his lips, he originally wanted to say, “Buried Alive” is a type of thriller and suspense, but when you think about it, crime and psychological suspense are indeed different types, and the performance style and There are many differences in the character characterization; and, “Mind Hunter” is indeed different from “Buried Alive”, so he closed his mouth.

“Secondly, the role of ‘Mind Hunter’ is completely tailored for you, for you in the current situation! Although this was not our first choice when we conceived the script, we are looking forward to finding a more bookish and more A friendly actor, but that’s how things got us here, so why don’t we embrace unexpected developments like this.” David was really excited, speaking at a significantly faster rate.

“He is a very bookish figure, he has a talent, a talent for reading the psychological changes of criminal suspects, he is good at communicating with criminals, but not good at physical conflict, so he is very suitable for teaching. This also means that, on the one hand, he understands His talent can bring something, but on the other hand he is trapped in the teaching building, lost and confused, not knowing what to do, not sure where he can go.”

David looked Renly up and down, and gestured with his eyes, as if to say: I agree with you 100%.

That look made Renly smile, but he didn’t interrupt David and let him continue.

“When he appeared, he was a blank slate, groping from the beginning, and as the story progressed, he matured a little bit — wait a minute, you know what the core content of this show is, right? Simply put , is the establishment of criminal psychology, especially for serial killers; but it doesn’t matter if you don’t know, focus on characters! Characters! Our entire first season story was built around characters.”

“He started fumbling to establish the whole criminal psychology .

Learn the system! In the process of theory and actual combat, he gradually matures, and his talent gradually plays a role, and finally can really shine. At the end of the story of the first season, his talent will also become the Achilles who tripped him. The heel…”

Having said that, UU Reading www.

sonicmtl.com David paused suddenly, looked up at Renly again, “What are you thinking?”

Very suddenly!

Renly replied casually, “‘The Social Network.'” In the movie “The Social Network·, the fast speech rate and sharp editing undoubtedly left a deep impression on people.

Usually, David speaks at a normal speed, and there is nothing wrong with it.” Special; but just now, the soaring speed of speech reminded Renly of that movie.

David thought for a moment, tilted his head, and there was a hint of playfulness in his eyes, as if he was saying: Look Come on we’re in the same state right now, you’re entering my world; but on the surface, he doesn’t have an opinion, and then goes on, “My point is, the content and the rhythm of this show are perfect for you The status quo, you are completely the hero, the only difference is that he is exploring criminal psychology, and you are exploring acting.

”

“Look, Renly, you can start from scratch, from a young and even restrained performance state, and then gradually adjust to yourself and the role of the state, and finally find yourself, but lose yourself, this is a The performance process is also a growth process and a healing process at the same time.” David’s eyes brightened, and he almost danced, but he still suppressed his urge.
