"Steven, this person's opinion agrees with yours. He also said that a bicycle racing scene should be added." Melissa Matheson, the screenwriter of the tentative title "E.T. Alien" picked up a copy of the script evaluation and said,
Said to director Spielberg.
Spielberg is busy with the post-editing of his new film "The Lost Ark of the Covenant." The film was shot in Tunisia and Hawaii for nearly 4 months. It was just completed at the end of last year and has entered post-production.
George Lucas recommended Harrison Ford to star as the male lead Dr. Indiana Jones. The female lead was Karen Allen, replacing Spielberg's ex-girlfriend Amy Irving.
"Really? I didn't expect that he thought the same as me. What other opinions does he have?" Spielberg asked many friends to read the first draft of et's script, and today he took time to discuss all the feedback with screenwriter Melissa.
"He also said that he wanted to delete a bad boy's character..."
"But this kind of bad thing does exist among children. I have personal experience."
"It is difficult for a child's imagination to imagine that a peer of the same age is a bad guy who specializes in doing bad things to good people..." This is what the original words said. Screenwriter Melissa read out the comments written by Ronald.
"Well, do you think so too? Sometimes the facts that people believe are more important than the facts." Spielberg heard this and said decisively, "Okay, delete that bad boy from the second draft."
"What's his name?...Ronald Lee, he has some insight." Spielberg turned back to his assistant Kathleen Kennedy and told him, "If you have a chance, contact him and see if he has any good scripts."
Then he went back to discuss the second draft of the script with screenwriter Melissa, completely ignoring the invitation to the Golden Globe Awards dinner tonight.
In the eyes of Hollywood celebrities like Spielberg, the Golden Globe Awards are similar to the Pheasant Awards. But in the eyes of young actors who have just entered the industry, or handsome men and beauties who have not yet entered the industry and want to be actors, it is the same as being in the entertainment industry.
Shortcut to news.
"How do I look?" Natasha Kinski wore a yellow dress, admired her figure in front of the mirror, and then turned back to ask her neighbor and best friend Demi Moore.
"You look good." Demi Moore looked at this expensive dress with some taste.
"Don't be upset, Demi. Freddy Moore refuses to divorce you. It's his loss." Natasha Kinski's "Tess" was released in the United States and received praise from many film critics.
.
Kinski's long hair in "Tess" has been cut off, and her current hairstyle is an ear-length bob. This hairstyle, named after the Chinese movie star Kwan Chia-sien, was popular in the West in the 1960s.
Natasha Kinski is not wearing this hairstyle for the retro trend, but because she will join the cast early next month to shoot director Coppola's movie "One from the Heart" and play the second female lead.
, an acrobat. This hairstyle is a requirement of the role.
This marks that this European actress has been officially accepted by Hollywood. Now Natasha Kinski is contented with her ambitions, focusing entirely on her makeup and clothing. Today she was nominated for Best Actress (
Drama), and Best Newcomer of the Year (Actress).
Naturally, Kinski didn't notice that her friend Demi Moore was in a low mood, not just because she broke up with her boyfriend.
Demi Moore failed to force her to get married. Her boyfriend Freddie Moore and his wife have not yet completed the divorce procedures. This time, in order to stimulate her boyfriend, she seemed to have gone too far in pretending to break up. Freddie Moore did not
As usual, she gave in immediately. After leaving her boyfriend, Demi Moore now has neither savings nor a house to live in.
Demi Moore's goal is tonight's Golden Globe Awards dinner. The dinner, which will be broadcast live by NBC, will be held at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Hollywood. In the front of the awards hall are round tables arranged according to the crew, and there are some in the back.
In this space, there will be many handsome men and beautiful women standing there, and the TV station will not chase them away.
Sometimes the camera would sweep over, and if she was lucky, she would be able to leave a one-second shot. This exposure would be enough for her to take on some advertising modeling business and earn some money. Not to mention, if she was lucky, she would be spotted by a popular male star.
Go... Of course, the competition for these standing tickets is also fierce, and someone must be brought into the dinner venue.
Demi Moore also took out her best black dress and put it on. This was her last chance. If she couldn't sneak in and meet some celebrities in the entertainment industry, she could only agree to "qui" adult magazine to take a set of "artistic photos"
"Yes.
This magazine has always been famous for its large scale. Although it does not have the reputation of "Playboy", the money is very satisfying. It is enough for me to survive in Hollywood for another half a year.
Natasha Kinski took Demi Moore with her and the car arrived at the entrance of the Hilton Hotel. There was no red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards, and the only photo session for reporters was at the entrance of the hotel lobby.
Demi Moore, who couldn't steal the spotlight from Kinski, got out of the car early, carried her skirt and high heels, walked to the hotel in the night breeze, and waited for Kinski to arrive at the hotel door.
Although the temperature on the West Coast was not as cold as New York at the end of January, Demi, who was wearing an off-the-shoulder skirt, still felt a little cold and ran quickly towards the warm hotel lobby.
"I'm sorry, miss, may I ask for your invitation letter?"
"I, I came here with Natasha Kinski."
"I'm sorry, she hasn't arrived yet."
There was a traffic jam during the photo session, and Kinski's car had not yet lined up at the door. Demi Moore touched her shoulders, wanting to go into an air-conditioned room. Now she had to stand aside, hoping that her friends would arrive soon.
"Sir, your invitation?... Please come in, Mr. Ronald Lee, your seat is..."
Demi Moore suddenly discovered that the man in front of her in a dress and bow tie was none other than the photographer Ronald who took her audition photos more than a year ago.
She was a little shocked that Ronald could get the Golden Globe invitation. Demi knew that the opportunity was rare and said hello, "Ronald! It's me, Demi. Demi Moore."
"Demi?" Ronald recognized her. He took his first audition photo in Los Angeles. He relied on her photos to advertise and his business was booming.
"Are you coming to the Golden Globes dinner too? How about Freddy?" Ronald hugged her.
Demi Moore took the opportunity to hold Ronald's arm and entered the hotel together, "He should be doing well. I broke up with him. Freddie didn't want to divorce his wife."
"Sorry to hear the bad news."
Ronald saw Demi Moore dressed up and thought she had entered the film and television industry and was a member of the nominated crew like him today.
Entering the awards hall, Ronald quickly found his round table. It was next to the second to last row. He hugged the composer Gore who had arrived and introduced Demi to him. The round table was empty, and the director
Alan Parker, screenwriter, and other actors were not nominated for awards and did not attend.
There were many empty tables with some drinks, cocktails, and some snacks on them. The Golden Globe Awards dinner was more like a big party for eating and drinking, except that NBC cameras were filming it.
Demi Moore took advantage of the situation and sat down in an empty seat. While listening to Ronald and Gore chatting, she learned that Ronald was just a songwriter and had been nominated for a Golden Globe. Her boyfriend Freddy also asked
She signed her name and wrote lyrics on several songs in the album, but unfortunately sales were poor and she didn't make much money.
So Demi started to turn her head left and right like a radar to lock in a more suitable conversation partner.
Ronald was a little surprised at first as to why Demi didn't go to his place. Seeing her starting to look for a new target, he felt a little enlightened in his heart. He turned and glanced at the beauties behind the railing. Demi should be here just like them.
Just a social opportunity.
When the beauties saw Ronald looking over, they immediately began to say hello to him, and some of them even pulled their collars and fired electricity at him. Ronald smiled and turned back to chat with Gore.
After a while, producer da Silva and star and singer Irene Cara also arrived, and it was another round of greetings with old friends.
Demi Moore saw that the "famous" producer was also here. She originally planned to take the initiative elsewhere, but she decided not to leave. One producer's favor was favored by ten unknown actors.
"Hi, Ronald, you're here, nice to see you here. I heard your script was picked up by Universal? Is there any chance you could write one for us?"
A familiar voice of greeting in English with a strong Israeli accent came from behind. Ronald looked back and saw that it was the two brothers Minahan Golan and Yoram from Cannon Pictures.
"Hi, Minahan, Yoram. I heard that you signed a distribution contract with MGM?" Ronald greeted them. It seems that the two of them didn't get along well. They were also arranged last at the Golden Globe Awards.
a row.
"Yes, we are looking for resources and stars to shoot big productions. Do you have other scripts that can be shot? Let's talk about it?"
The two simply came over from their own table in the last row and sat at this table.
Ronald nodded and apologized to his companions. The Israeli brother's loud voice attracted many other people's attention. He pulled the chair back slightly and started chatting with Minahan.
It turns out that although Cannon signed a distribution contract with MGM, MGM's own domestic distribution still needs to rely on United Artists' channels. Their "Apple" received little resources and was stuffed into back-end theaters.
Coupled with the low quality of the film, in the end this film, which Minahan had high hopes for, only received less than 100,000 at the box office and was sadly dropped after a week.
"You know, Ronald, we are very willing to make some big productions in Hollywood, but people here are very cautious. We don't have a successful movie, and it is very difficult to talk about cooperation. You are already a successful playwright. If you have a new work, don't
Forget about us, we'll give you a better price than Colombia." Minahan was writing a blank check.
"Not yet, I'm currently writing a script for Universal." Ronald declined.
"Oh, what's the theme?"
"It is adapted from a young adult novel, telling the story of high school students bidding farewell to innocence and moving toward maturity."
"Farewell to innocence, farewell to innocence..." Minahan and Yoram looked at each other, as if they had remembered something.
"How about a remake of 'Lemonade'?" Yoram whispered.
"Lemonade" is a super hit movie the two brothers shot in Israel. With the proceeds from this movie, they were able to acquire the Cannon Company.
This is a teen exploitation film about a boy in school. His crush and her boyfriend accidentally get pregnant. The boy takes the initiative to help his crush and pays for the surgery with money from working in a pizza shop. In the end, his crush and her boyfriend get back together.
The story of getting back together and dumping him again.
"Keep your voice down, this movie conflicts with the subject matter of Ronald's movie. Let's not let him know."
"Lemonade is a custom in Israel. It's a metaphor for those spare boyfriends. We have to change its name in America to sell it," Yoram said.
"High school boyfriend?" Minahan suggested.
"High school virgin?" Yoram said.
"The last high school virgin?"
"The last American virgin?"
"Okay, this is good." Minahan couldn't help but giggle.
Demi Moore, who was sitting next to her, had gleaming eyes. She didn't expect that Ronald was not only a composer, but also a screenwriter. It seemed that he had a good relationship with the two fat guys opposite, who looked like producers. He looked like nails.
He sat still in his chair.
At this time, the guests gradually arrived, and a TV station staff member came to the stage and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, our Golden Globe Awards dinner broadcast will begin soon. Please take your seats..."
