Chapter 179 From Miss Golden Globe to Golden Globe Best Actress
Time came to January 1989, and Ronald had been in Los Angeles, continuing to edit "When Harry Met Sally." Although Daydream Pictures was small, several people in charge were very motivated.
, a smart guy with industry experience. This allowed Ronald to let go and do his job as a film director.
The casting work for the third part of "The Dragon King" has also ended. The heroine of the first part, Elizabeth Su, will return as a guest star. Ali has already gone to college and is two places away from Daniel. The heroine of the second part is of Japanese descent.
Actor Tomita Tamrei will make a guest appearance as the ancestor of Kumiko in the past.
The most important thing is that Daniel and Miyagi, the master and apprentice, have a story with the female characters when they dream of returning to the Ming Dynasty.
Tsui Hark's original love was a Malaysian actress, Michelle Yeoh. However, she unfortunately married Mr. Poon, a film tycoon in Hong Kong. After the marriage, she followed tradition and quit the film industry.
Ronald had seen the audition photos and a video clip that Tsui Hark brought. It was indeed in line with Hollywood's imagination of oriental women. In particular, her English was as good as that of a professional actress, fluent and with some Asian accents, which was very
Suitable for this movie.
However, it is a tradition in Hong Kong that female celebrities have to stop acting after getting married. Ronald also called Jackie Chan and asked him to change the relationship. In the end, the invitation was not successful, and she only agreed to guest star as a Chinese fairy who rescued Daniel and his apprentice.
character of.
Tsui Hark's final choice was Rosamund Kwan, another Hong Kong actor who was fluent in English. However, her skills were inferior and she needed to cut down on some action designs and use Ronald's acquaintance, the female martial artist Yuen Qiu, as a stand-in.
"Harrison is not going, Sigourney, Melanie, and Joan are going back..." Ronald was confirming the candidates for the Golden Globe Awards with public relations consultant Michael Gray. The Golden Globe Awards are approaching, Ronald's "
"Working Girl" has been nominated for several awards in succession.
Best Picture (Comedy or Musical), Best Actress (Comedy), Best Supporting Actress, Best Director, Best Screenplay, and Best Original Song, a total of six nominations.
For the sake of box office, Ronald was very generous to the Golden Globe Awards and agreed to attend in person. Among the actors, except for Harrison Ford, who was absent, all three actresses agreed to attend.
The Golden Globe Awards is originally a grassroots team. As long as they agree to come to the scene and contribute to increasing the ratings, they will basically give a nomination. The award depends on the popularity of the nominated star.
Therefore, the Golden Globe Awards for Best Actor and Actor have two categories, feature film and comedy or musical, a total of four awards. This is also the reason why stars are given more opportunities to win awards live. The Supporting Actor award is because there are few stars.
Combined into one, there is only one award.
"Okay, I'm going to communicate with the organizing committee. It is estimated that we have a high chance of winning the Golden Globe this year. The other shortlisted movies do not have many stars. 'Rain Man' happens to be the same as our main cast of actresses.
The lineup is staggered.
Martin Scorsese's "The Last Temptation of Christ," and Aaron Parker's "Mississippi Burning," both had no stars."
"Okay, okay, is this public relations too obvious?" Ronald was a little worried. The Golden Globe Awards have now been reduced to a clear price tag. You can bring in a few celebrities and give some benefits to the judges, and it will basically be enough.
What award did you get?
If he wins too many Golden Globe Awards, his reputation will not be good.
"Whose award do you want to focus on keeping?" Michael Gray knew very well what people like Ronald think. He also wanted to use the influence of the national television broadcast of the Golden Globe Awards to advertise, but he also didn't want insiders to laugh at the use of money behind his back.
Buying prizes. So he came up with an idea to focus on ensuring a few topical prizes.
"Melanie Griffith's Best Actress, Sigourney Weaver's Best Supporting Actress...well, if I may, Joan Cusack's..." Ronald thought
I thought, since my film "Working Girl" is about independent female characters, I would like to highlight the female actors in the marketing.
"Supporting actresses may not be able to do what they want, and the number of places given by the Golden Globe Awards is too small. But I will try my best. Generally speaking, the Golden Globe Awards are more popular for male acting awards, and media reports will focus on them..."
"But Harrison Ford went to film Indiana Jones. George and Steven are not so easy to talk to..." Ronald replied angrily. He also knew that the publicity effect would be better if Harrison Ford came, but this
A male star seems to have seen through that his acting style will not win any serious awards, so he doesn't even care about the second-tier Golden Globe Award.
"Anyway, we have to find a way, otherwise the Golden Globe Awards for Leading Actress and Supporting Actress may not even make it to the second edition..." Michael Gray also spread his hands. You want to do this and do that. I am also very happy.
It’s difficult to do.
"We need to find some selling points..." Ronald began to rack his brains...
…
"I heard from Aunt Karen that you bought a new house in Los Angeles?"
In the evening, Ronald stayed the night at the Beverly Hilton Hotel. Helen Slater had already gone back to spend the Christmas and New Year holidays with her family. Diane left her father behind and ran to Los Angeles to be with Ronald.
The two of them seemed to have some kind of agreement and would appropriately arrange their time with Ronald.
"Yes, it seems that you can see it from here..." Ronald walked to the balcony of the loft suite and pointed to a park environment with light in the darkness at night, "There is a piece of land there, here
Blocked by trees."
"Is the house big?" Diane asked looking across.
"It's not very big. It turned out to be Stallone's house. I'm going to demolish the house next door and build a new one so that we can live more comfortably..." Ronald briefly explained the origin of the house.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I met with the great architect I.M. Pei, and he said that the mansion does not need to be too big. If the house is too big and does not match the number of people, it will lead to bad feng shui. In fact, it is enough
Just use it. We can find ways to provide more gardens and exercise facilities in more places, which is in line with human nature. I plan to listen to him..."
There was a bit of wind tonight, and it was a bit cool when it blew on me. Ronald hugged Diane from behind and smelled the familiar smell from her hair. For a moment, Ronald also looked forward to the life after the house was built.
"Then before you tear it down, can you throw a party for me?" Diane turned around and kissed Ronald on the face, testing it with a smile.
"Of course, but it's not really suitable for a party there. If you want to have one, I can ask Richard and Paula to find a better place for you."
"That's different..." Diane said coquettishly, "I invited some friends from before when they were not famous. I wanted to find a place to have fun."
"Of course, as long as you are willing... I will let them get ready... Who did you invite?"
"We are all friends we met when we were making movies together. I was still having bad luck at that time, so my friends at that time were more sincere."
…
"Wow, it's great here, Diane."
Diane found some friends who came to Ronald's new house to have a party. They were all friends they had met when they were filming movies together. For example, the two Chinese actors in "The Monster in Chinatown", Wu Hanzhang and Deng Gang.
There are also Robert Duvall in "Lonesome Dove". Suzy Amis and Bruce Dern in "Casino". There is also Bruce Dern's daughter, who played a rock star with Diane.
Laura Dern in the movie "The Amazing Dirt Band".
Laura Dern was only fifteen or sixteen years old when she and Diane made a movie together. The two were considered best friends. As soon as they entered the house, they started yelling and even took Diane to play Rona.
De placed here arcade games.
"Is this a housewarming party? Are you just moving into Ronald's house?" Laura Dern saw no one around, pulled Diane and started talking about best friends.
"Actually, it doesn't count, because Ronald said he would bulldoze the house and build a new one..." Diane smiled reservedly.
"That means that after the new house is built, you will..." Laura Dern, who has long arms and legs, hugged Diane and smiled.
"Don't let it slip..." Diane saw Suzy Amis also walking over, and quickly asked Laura to whisper.
"Is this a greenhouse party? I didn't even bring a gift." This was the first question Suzy Amis asked when she came over to meet Diane.
"Hahaha, you see she asked that too..." Laura Dern fell to the ground laughing happily.
…
"Your house looks really nice, it's quiet in the midst of the hustle and bustle." Robert Duvall congratulated Ronald outside.
"I also picked up on the stock crisis..." Ronald accepted the compliment with a smile.
"How do you think you have grown up at such a young age? I didn't understand this at all when I was your age. I was still filming for Roger Corman. He only gave me the minimum wage. I
I didn’t know how to find a reliable agent. Easy Rider was originally my role as Jack Nicholson.”
Bruce Dern also used a unique way to compliment Ronald. He was also a Coleman University graduate, but he was just average.
"So it's all luck. In this industry, success or failure depends on luck." Robert Duvall drank light beer. He always believed in luck and did his own thing well. Others
Let God and the audience decide.
"Your place is really nice. It's more than enough to hold a big party for hundreds of people." Ronald didn't know how good Bruce Dern's acting was, but his performance of the emotion of envy was definitely excellent, and it not only made Ronald feel
It's comfortable and not too exaggerated to make it false.
"It was all done by Diane and her agent..." Ronald turned his head and looked at Diane and the two female guests.
Diane actually has a lot of scheming, or was it taught by her agent Paula? In these movies, two leading actors were absent and were not invited. One is Kim, who had a substantial exchange with Ronald.
Cattrall. The other is Matt Dillon, who played Diane as an on-screen couple three times.
In any case, they are not suitable to be at this party.
"By the way, are there any publicity stunts for the Golden Globe Awards?" Ronald thought of business and asked these two veterans who have been in Hollywood for decades.
"What other gimmicks does the Golden Globes have? Unless you expose the scandal of buying the awards yourself... hahaha" Bruce Dern burst out laughing when he heard Ronald's question. In fact, not only the industry, but also the audience watching the Golden Globes
If you come to see celebrities, what other gimmicks can you expect? Everyone is just watching for fun.
"I didn't say it..." Ronald also took a sip of light beer and shook his head. Let's forget it.
"I remember your daughter was Miss Golden Globe?" Robert Duvall looked at Laura Dern inside and asked his father.
"Yes, in 1982, her mother and I spent a lot of effort to give her a chance to enter the entertainment industry..."
Miss Golden Globe is the young woman who serves as the emcee at the Golden Globe Awards and is the hostess who hands over the trophy when the awards are presented.
For this role, the Golden Globe Awards also exchange the presence of celebrities. Most of those who serve as Miss Golden Globe Awards are the children of Hollywood stars. In this way, their parents and friends will also come to support them, and the ratings can be increased by one percentage point.
"Oh, I remember, it seems that Melanie Griffith also served as Miss Golden Globe?"
"Really? I don't remember." Bruce Dern said.
"1975, I remember." Robert Duvall smiled at Ronald. This was the purpose of his mention.
"Thank you..." Ronald picked up the beer and gestured to Duval, and he remembered the favor.
"Melanie Griffiths was the Miss Golden Globe in 1975. If she wins the Golden Globe for Best Actress this year, she will be the first actor in history to achieve this achievement. I wonder...
"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ronald then called public relations consultant Michael Gray. Is this a good stunt?
"Then the media can publish special topics, from Miss Golden Globe... to Golden Globe Best Actress, Melanie Griffith's Hollywood journey..." Michael Gray was very excited. Such a topic would be great.
La!
"And her Hitchcock girl mother..." Ronald laughed, adding an eye-catching gimmick.
Back then, Melanie's mother, Tippi Hedlund, was also a very talented person.
The two films she shot for Hitchcock, "The Birds" and "The Thief", are both representatives of the classic sexy blonde that many viewers will never forget.
But then she seemed to have a falling out with Hitchcock, and she never made any movies again. Tibby seemed to be obsessed with animals, and even opened a wildlife park and lived with wild beasts every day. Melanie Griffiths was a child
He was bitten by a lion and suffered a comminuted fracture, almost disfiguring his face.
Melanie's current mental state of dependence and addiction has a lot to do with her mother's unreliability.
"From Hitchcock girls to zoo girls..." Michael Gray echoed with a smile. Those gossip newspapers love these messy histories.
"The zoo is not very good, let's go from Hitchcock girl to nail salon proprietress." Gray changed the title.
"The lady who owns the nail salon?" Ronald asked curiously.
"You don't know? Vietnamese immigrants get manicures, which was invented by Tippi Hedlund. After the Vietnam War, many South Vietnamese immigrants and women worked in nail salons. It didn't matter if they didn't speak good English. They could save a fortune.
Keep the money..."
"Well, she is really a nail salon proprietress."
Soon, with Ronald's support and financial support, various media outlets began to hype this rare "inspirational" story in Hollywood history. In this way, he went from being a hostess at an awards show to accepting a trophy.
, especially in line with the tastes of American people.
