Chapter 350 Deadly Knife
Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!
On the day the 20th Century Fox held its premiere for "Dynasty", not only Matthew went, but Helen Herman also went, because after Matthew, Helen Herman had a second star client.
At the end of April, Helen Hermann successfully poached and signed Eva Green, the heroine of "Dream of Paris". Matthew didn't say much. With the development of the Angel Agency, Helen Hermann will definitely sign new clients, and this is an actress and will not disperse his resources.
Besides, with his current status and box office appeal, if he feels it is not suitable, he just needs to change jobs. Caa and William Morris have come into contact with him.
"Matthew, this is Tom Rossman."
In the VIP room of the Hollywood Chinese Grand Theater, Helen Herman introduced Matthew, "Tom is the director of the 20th Century Fox production and distribution department."
Matthew quickly stepped forward, shook hands with the middle-aged man wearing glasses, and exchanged greetings.
"Actually we almost worked together." Tom Rossman said with a smile. "Originally, Twentieth Century Fox was going to release "Mr. Smiths", but unfortunately Peak Entertainment changed its mind temporarily."
He looked at Matthew and said seriously, "When will we collaborate with Twentieth Century Fox to have a video?"
Matthew understood that these were all the effects of success in several past movies, so he quickly politely said, "There must be a chance."
The two chatted a few more times, and Tom Rossman went somewhere else.
Helen Hermann looked at his back and said, "If "Dynasty of Heaven" fails, he will probably be most responsible."
"Why?" Matthew asked curiously.
"Have you heard of it?" Helen Hermann glanced at Matthew and explained, "The original version edited by Uncle Scott is not the version to be released today. Tom Rossman was very dissatisfied with Uncle Scott's edited version and personally ordered the editor to re-edit the film, reducing the content for about fifty minutes. Uncle Scott was very angry, but there was no way."
Matthew nodded, "I heard Orlando mention this."
Helen Hermann shook his head slightly, "I think this film is a bit dangerous, and the reputation of the two previews is not very good."
The door of the VIP room opened, and a crew member walked in. Matthew and Helen Herman went over to say hello to Ridley Scott, hugged Orlando Bloom, and under Orlando Bloom's introduction, they met the tall Liam Neeson.
Seeing Liam Neeson, Matthew suddenly remembered the comments he had on a movie forum. At that time, the most undesirable characters in the movies were commented on Liam Neeson's daughter and Keanu Reeves' dog.
Then, Helen Hermann introduced him to Eva Green.
"Hello, Miss Green." Matthew shook hands with Eva Green, and Eva Green responded with a smile, "Hello."
She asked tentatively, "Can I call you Matthew?"
Matthew nodded, "Of course," he said, "Miss Green, your English pronunciation is very standard and you can't hear the French accent."
"Call me Eva." Eva Green smiled, "I studied at New York University and have specialized in accent correction."
Matthew didn't know the actress, and praised her in an international way, "Eva, you're so beautiful."
"Thank you." Eva Green first entered Hollywood and knew the importance of getting to know each other.
Matthew looked at Eva Green calmly. The French woman's long black hair was obviously dyed. Her complexion was white, but she was wearing a black dress, forming a sharp contrast.
To be honest, this woman's appearance does not conform to the traditional Western aesthetic at all. To be precise, she looks a bit weird, but she is very consistent with Matthew's aesthetic that softens the Eastern and Western customs.
Eva Green's eyes were too big, the corners of his eyes were drooping, the corners of his mouth were slightly drooping, and the nasolabial folds were too deep.
However, Matthew personally felt that she was very beautiful. Unlike the blond and blue-eyed models, like the models carved from the same mold, Eva Green's appearance was unique, and she was not as beautiful as she was. Her facial features were not very beautiful when she looked separate, but she had a unique beauty, a kind of beauty with evil, dark, cold and mysterious beauty.
If you have to find a suitable description, it is that it is as beautiful as a monster, and as beautiful as almost obscene.
After a few greetings, Matthew took the initiative to stay away from Eva Green. This woman is too attractive to him. He is not a rigid man. If he comes into contact with it, he will inevitably have ideas. At this stage, this kind of thinking is unsatisfactory. After all, many agreements have been reached for "Mr. Smith". Once something messy and is caught by the media, it will be troublesome.
At critical moments, he can still distinguish between the primary and secondary.
Besides, Eva Green has signed a contract with Angel Brokerage...
Soon, the people in the VIP lounge entered the screening room and waited for the screening of "Dynasty of Heaven" to begin.
Helen Herman and Matthew sat together and whispered while there was no one around, "It's a special moment now, don't mess around."
Matthew knew that Helen Hermann knew him better, and did not deny it. He said directly, "When did I mess around? I am an adult man. It is normal to be attracted to women who are aesthetically compatible, but attraction does not mean that I will really do it."
Helen Hermann thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and said nothing more. After all, Matthew was still very serious and responsible in his work.
The film began to be screened, and all Matthew's energy was transferred to the big screen. He had watched this film once, and he also knew that countless people felt that the release version and the director's cut version were two movies.
After the screening began, he found that the version displayed on the screen was indeed very different from the one that had some impression of.
Looking at the videos shown on the screen, Matthew's biggest feeling was that he was dull and he didn't have the passionate feeling of epic videos, and he was not excited at all.
In addition, there are obvious problems with the editing. Even if someone like him who is not very professional, he can see that the plot is not consistent enough and the stars are gathered, but they are all vague.
Even compared with a child-oriented family-friendly film like "National Treasure", the films on the screen can be called pale and lack persuasive. Not to mention Orlando Bloom and Eva Green, who have almost been cut into simple vases, even veteran actors like Jeremy Irons and Liam Neeson have no glory. It seems that only Edward Norton's performance wearing masks can still give people an impression.
This Hollywood alternative actor has really strong acting skills, and even Matthew has to admire him. Even though he wears a mask from beginning to end, he still kills other actors in seconds.
Although the memory is not particularly clear, Matthew roughly felt that the 50 minutes cut from Helen Hermann was simply fatal.
Eva Green's character was completely murdered, just a typical Hollywood-style vase. In this movie, her modern face seemed out of place. The whole function of existence seemed to be to connect the contradictory relationships between several characters, and to talk to Orlando Bloom, and even talked so concealedly that she never showed her figure.
Matthew vaguely remembered that the character she played should have a son, who was the heir to the kingdom. However, after ascending the throne, he found that this child was a leper patient like his uncle. The princess could not bear the son's tragic fate of her brother, so she ended her child's life and caused the kingdom to fall into the hands of her husband.
Such an important emotional context is almost difficult to see because of the editing of Twentieth Century Fox. The only female character in the film collapsed and had no effect except the vase.
Even the vase is not qualified because it is always tightly wrapped.
As for Orlando Bloom's male lead, it is slightly stronger than Eva Green. The male lead Matthew saw now, Barryan, is very tall and abrupt. He couldn't understand. He was obviously a blacksmith at the beginning, but how did he become a talented and powerful leader once he inherited the title? And he felt that Orlando Bloom had nothing to play. He was always silent and was just a cool face from beginning to end.
He seemed to remember that in the version he had seen, he had a separate shaping of Barian. He couldn't remember it clearly, and now he has disappeared.
With Ridley Scott's ability, it was impossible to make such a low-level mistake, and the explanation was that it was forcibly cut off by Twentieth Century Fox.
Matthew felt that Orlando Bloom had inexplicably missed the opportunity to win some good reviews. It was not that he didn't do it, but that everything he did was knocked out.
Orlando Bloom first met him, then met a pair of big scissors, and Matthew didn't know what to say.
I can only say that when a person is in trouble, a piece of shit may fall into his mouth if a bird flying in the sky pulls a piece of shit.
Of course, the most unfortunate person should be director Ridley Scott. The current version is a victim of flesh and blood, and the weakness of the main trunk makes the originally glorious war scene seem dull.
Matthew has worked with Ridley Scott, and he can guess it can't be his original intention.
Helen Herman once told him that Ridley Scott really wanted to make "Dynasty" an epic, and an epic in the traditional sense.
Now it seems that this is more like Waterloo.
The subtitles appeared, Matthew turned around and asked Helen Herman next to him, "What do you think?"
If he doesn't cheat, he can estimate the market's ability simply by watching movies, he is far from being as professional as a more professional agent.
