Chapter 360 Finalizing the release of Silence of the Lambs(1/2)

During the Labor Day long weekend, the box office of "The Last Day" did not fall but rose, once again exceeding 10 million. It is extremely unusual for a movie that has been in theaters for two months. This makes people say this in movie reviews before

It was very embarrassing for the critics who spoke poorly of the movie and gave it low ratings.

They began to make amends. When commenting on other movies in their columns, they once again wrote two paragraphs of comments about "humans and ghosts are still in love", in order to regain their dignity as experts in disguise.

The most exaggerated thing is the Washington Post, which actually published a movie review about "The Last Days" again.

When the film was first released, film critic Desen Howie said, "The Ghost Story is an old-fashioned fantasy story full of emotion, and the film flows through different genres like a ghost passing through castle walls."

The main genre of movies is thriller. When it is too intense, slapstick and interesting ghost special effects are used to ease the audience's emotions."

You can't say that this kind of shady film review is just a negative satire. At best, it's a kind of "well-intentioned ridicule."

But the new film review, written by Rita Campelli, a female film critic who admires Ronald, has completely different wording.

"There is no misunderstanding about Paramount's The Ghost Story. This is a conventional commercial film full of formulas.

But oddly enough, when I watched it, he wasn't as bad as it sounded. In fact, he ended a summer filled with crappy sequels that unfortunately gave me surprisingly good entertainment, and new Palms in theaters

The powerful air conditioner complements each other.

Only in the worst years of film acting would Schwytz or Moore have a chance of winning an Oscar, but they are very capable actors, good enough to pull off this puzzle plot without hindering your viewing experience.

The best performance comes from Goldberg, who injects spiritual power into an otherwise far-fetched divination role. Since her unforgettable performance in "The Color Purple," she has been stuck in male-dominated formulaic work. But

This film, while still a commercial film, may bode well for her future."

Even Chicago duo Ebert and Sisko reviewed half a year's worth of films on a TV film review program, saying good things about "The Last Day" and admitting that their initial film reviews tended to be underestimated.



"Hahahaha, these bastards..."

Ronald watched these new film reviews in the hotel and laughed very happily. It is not easy for commercial productions to be nominated at the Oscars. Now these film critics have turned collectively. It seems that when signing up for the Oscars this year, they have to try the best picture and

Best Director, you said it yourself...

Of course, Whoopi Goldberg's acting skills are obvious to all, and both ordinary audiences and film critics have praised her. Paramount and Ronald agreed to set aside the best supporting actress slot and mainly recommend her.

Diane next to her looked quite envious. Oscar, even for a supporting actress, is very impressive.

Apart from the Oscars, America's most famous film award is the Golden Globe. But the Golden Globe is a well-known award that can be bought. Less than a hundred judges decide the winner. This has happened many times before.

Don’t these female celebrities know that winning the Golden Globe Award is not recognition from the industry, nor will it make their peers admire them? Of course not, they know very well.

But after all, this is an award at a nationally broadcast awards ceremony, and those viewers don’t know that. Therefore, you can see that at the Golden Globe Awards, the stars who won the award, especially the female stars, were so excited that they were hysterical and even gave their acceptance speeches.

They all said it was a bad situation.

There are also those who are waiting for the winners to be announced, nervously drinking one cocktail after another, and finally walking on stage drunk.

Not to mention the Oscars, in addition to wearing famous brand haute couture, they also have to work out in advance, diet for the last few days, and squeeze themselves into small clothes. Ronald and Diane looked at each other and smiled, both thinking of that Dai

Ann's winning Golden Globes night.

"Viewers, welcome to NBC, I am the host..." The two looked at each other sweetly, but were interrupted by the evening news on TV.

The situation in Kuwait has reached a deadlock. Iraq officially announced its annexation of Kuwait, which was very rare under the post-war United Nations order. United Nations Secretary-General de Cuellar personally went to Baghdad to mediate, but there was no result.

The horrors caused by the war have been shown in the Western media, and all major TV stations have reported on the refugees. There are many Indian, Filipino, and Palestinian workers in Kuwait, and hundreds of thousands of them have been working in Kuwait in the past few weeks.

foreigners fled to Jordan by land.

People in Europe and the United States were generally very sad when they saw the tragic situation on TV and asked the government to take measures. In response to the people's call, Mr. Eighty Percent, the commander-in-chief George Sr., personally went to Helsinki, Finland, where he met with Sewell

The Alliance Grand Commander, Mr. Mikhail, held a summit to discuss the situation.

Yes, now the top leader of the alliance is no longer called the General Secretary-General, but is called the Grand Commander. In March this year, the Supreme Suvir passed an amendment, and the alliance officially adopted the Grand Commander system, and Mikhail has taken office.

The first commander-in-chief of the alliance.

After the summit meeting, the leaders of the two countries jointly issued a statement stating that Iraq must withdraw from Kuwait in accordance with United Nations Security Council Resolutions 660, 661, 662, 664 and 665.

Ronald looked at Old George's high-spirited look and lamented that the world was changing so fast. The two hegemonic countries actually united to issue a statement asking the regional hegemons to get out of Kuwait...

"Tom Fogarty, a member of the famous rock band Creedence Clearwater Revival, died in hospital today. He died of... viral syndrome," his manager said in a statement.

I got the infection from a blood transfusion during back surgery in the 1980s..."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! A picture of a hippie-looking man appeared on the TV, and the station was playing their most famous song, "Who Can Make the Rain Stop".

Then, the TV station also interviewed Tom Fogerty's brother, John. Because his brother Tom betrayed him, John conspired with producer Saul Zaenz to sell the copyright of the CCR band's songs to the Jewish producer.

As a result, songwriter John Fogerty, the soul of the CCR band, was defrauded of tens of millions of dollars by Saul Zaenz. Now even if John Fogarty wants to sing his own songs, he still has to pay for it.

Enzi pays the copyright fee.

The TV station added an avatar to John Fogerty's phone voice. Ronald recognized this as the uncle who taught him how to play guitar in a San Francisco bar.

"I have forgiven Tom for betraying me and CCR. But now I can no longer reconcile with him, and I can no longer chat with him face to face."

"Hey..." Ronald saw Saul Zaenz's profile picture on TV again. This guy is a powerful figure.

Not only did he defraud CCR of all the money it earned through its popularity comparable to that of the Beatles in the 1960s. He also moved to Hollywood and became a producer and produced two Oscar-winning films.

1984's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, and 1984's Mozart.

Looking at Saul Zaenz, who looks like a philosopher with a white beard on the TV, no one would have imagined that he is a ruthless man who will do anything to deceive and kidnap, but everyone still has to maintain respect. Although not often

I shoot a movie in Hollywood, but it's a high-quality product.

"Do you still hate Saul Zaenz?" The TV host also took the opportunity to ask the question, which must have high ratings.

"Hey, look at the current advertising. They abuse the copyright of CCR songs, gas stations, candies, and Saul Zaenz doesn't choose. It's too overwhelming. I'm very sad." John Fogerty still said

He is very upset about the misuse of his songs.

"I remember the rain kept falling,

Mysterious clouds pour over the ground.”

Coincidentally, right after the news, the TV station released an advertisement that abused CCR. The song "Who Can Make the Rain Stop" was paired with an advertisement for rainproof paint.

"Pfft..." Ronald couldn't help laughing, maybe Saul Zaenz, a Jew, was deliberately disgusting John Fogerty.

"John, I'm sorry for your loss... I want to help you stop the abuse of CCR classic songs, Ronald Lee, who was taught guitar chords by you"

Ronald quickly wrote a letter and asked Richard to find a way to bring it to the rock star the next day.

Soon, John Fogarty called him.

"Ronald, hey boy, I love your movies."

"I like your song, we are even."

"Ah ha ha ha ha..."

Although this John Fogerty supported the Donkey Party and mocked the former commander-in-chief Ronald Sr., some of his actions were actually more in favor of the values ​​of the Elephant Party.

For example, he doesn't like extravagance, wears a plaid shirt all year round, is enthusiastic, and doesn't have a big temper.

Another example is that when he was in the band, he prohibited any member from drinking during rehearsals, let alone illegal drugs. He was also very serious during rehearsals and was very strict with his brother Tom and other members.

This is also an important reason why the other three team members betrayed him and turned to the unscrupulous Jew Saul Zaenz.

John Fogarty was quite moved when he saw that the kid he was playing with in the bar was now a successful Hollywood director. He asked Ronald how he planned to help him.

Ronald said that this matter must be taken slowly. First, clarify the confusing property rights issue and see how much leverage Saul Zaenz, the liar, has in his hands. Then he can find a way to help John Fogerty.

, speak out in the media and gain sympathy from fans...

"Whether this happens or not, I am very grateful to you..." John Fogerty was moved.

"I'm a fan of yours too, Mr. Fogerty. That rainproof paint commercial was really terrible. I can't stand that my favorite CCR song is being abused like this. I think there must be many fans who feel the same way as me.

.”

I smiled and hung up the phone. CCR's songs are all classics. And many teenagers at that time grew up listening to their songs and those of the Beatles. If we can form a good relationship and use his songs in movies in the future, then

It's convenient.

It is also said that the Jews have a special philosophy of doing business. Although CCR's songs were sold to many advertisers at a low price by Saul Zaenz, it is not easy to hear CCR's interludes in Hollywood movies.

This old liar is very careful about the use of his peers. He often refuses without even looking at the quotation.



Ronald brought a copy of "Silence of the Lambs" and Jonathan Demme, and the first person he came to meet was the then president of Orion, the original executive producer of the film, and now the vice president of TriStar Pictures, Mike Mai

Davoi.

"I said, Lao Mai, you can't go on the road like this." Ronald spoke in the Xujiahui dialect in his office. Medavoy insisted that he was unable to help.

"I know, I know, but the internal fighting in Colombia is very fierce now. I just came here and I don't have much leverage..." Medavoy explained to Ronald with a smile.

Peter Guber has a strong desire for power. He and Columbia's president, Frank Price, who was also recommended by Ronald, were squeezed into a small place like TriStar Pictures. There was no room for them in Columbia's affairs.

Interrupt.

"Didn't I bring you the capital to make a comeback? You also watched The Silence of the Lambs. This level is not seen every year." Ronald also replied with a smile.

It was fair to say that Frank Price, an honest man, was being bullied. He didn't believe it, but a Jew like Medavoy, who used a hot knife to cut butter and had both sides polished, didn't believe it.
