It is a very vicious move to slander Ronald as Gene's partner in public.
In America in 1979, conservative forces and religious forces were still very powerful outside of a few large cities on the east and west coasts. There was little tolerance for people like Jean, and in many southern states, they were even regarded as a disease.
Send to a specialized correctional institution for treatment.
Although the entertainment industry is quite tolerant of them and many people are among them, no one will admit it publicly.
The reason is actually very simple. If you admit it publicly, you will no longer be able to act in romantic scenes between men and women, or any movies with romantic scenes between men and women. This is equivalent to excluding 99% of movies and TV shows.
It is impossible for the vast majority of American people to watch your male-female romantic comedies knowing that you are gay.
As for the character Montgomery, the actor himself is heterosexual. Although the plot of openly coming out as gay in an acting class is very deviant, some audiences can still accept it because they know that this is a heterosexual actor playing a character in the play.
Role.
When the actor plays another role, the audience will also be able to understand that the last time the actor played was just a role in the play. There will not be much obstacles in taking on a new movie role.
Including the new Oscar winner, Jon Voight, has also had the experience of playing gay. The role of "Midnight Cowboy" did not cause much obstacles to his acting career, but made him famous in one fell swoop.
This is the current reality of America. You can play it on the screen, but you can never admit that you are it in public.
Besides, Ronald is not at all!
When this dirty water was thrown up, Ronald immediately felt that it was very difficult. The timing chosen by this British viper was too clever.
Now he proposed to add a scene, because Montgomery's character has already played a coming-out plot before, so everyone on the shooting scene will not think that this is deliberately set up for Gene and Ronald. It is a normal scene.
Controversy over art.
In this way, Jean was also roasted on the fire.
If Gene didn't act in this plot, then everyone at the scene would think he was hypocritical. The actor who played Montgomery didn't say anything. You are probably one of them, but you are unwilling to speak out for your own people?
If Gene plays? Then his future acting career will be completely cut off, and his image will be completely fixed on the two-way plug Leroy in the movie version of "Famous".
Perhaps this is one of Alan Parker's purposes. He does not want producer David da Silva to make a TV series of the same name and turn his (self-considered) great realist work into a soap opera.
Another purpose is nothing more than to severely retaliate against Gene and Ronald, who once challenged his authority. Two young people dared to disrespect him on the set. In Alan Parker's view, this is intolerable.
, must be punished.
"Your plot design is inconsistent with Leroy's usual plot and character designs." The producer was also furious at the sudden attack, which was going to ruin his TV series plan.
"The audience previously knew that Leroy was in love with Hillary and in love with Coco. If you suddenly add a same-sex plot here, it will only make the audience feel troubled. They don't know who Leroy is? What happened."
David da Silva stated the reason why this story is not valid artistically. In order to come up with this legitimate reason to reject the director's outrageous plan, he probably spent a lot of brain cells, right?
"This is just an idea of mine. If you insist not to shoot like this, we can also change the plot. I just think this is a good opportunity for people like you to speak out in public." Alan Parker pretended to be sorry, but he didn't
I insisted that this episode must be filmed.
"No, no, he didn't want to film this episode at all." Ronald also came to his senses. When did Alan Parker, the tyrant on the set, become so easy to talk to? Can he give up his artistic ideas easily?
In this way, the main purpose of playing this trick near the end of the filming of the entire movie was to take revenge on Ronald, Jean, and Da Silva, the three people who had offended him.
Moreover, this so-called concession is to further confirm that Ronald and Gene are "mates."
Ronald's eyes narrowed, and his blood surged. This disgusting method of avenging public and private revenge was very similar to the British style, which was cold, disgusting, and hurting others does not necessarily benefit oneself.
Nowadays, ordinary words cannot correct the opinions of the people present about him. Even if he denies it, he has planted the seeds of doubt in everyone's mind.
Besides, Gene is really gay. After he becomes popular in the entertainment industry, whenever anyone talks about Ronald Lee, they will associate him with Gene Ray.
This is not a good reputation. How will you get along in the entertainment industry in the future? How will you find a girlfriend in the industry?
Ronald thought for more than ten seconds. He must dispel this rumor in a way that will impress everyone. Maybe there is a better way, maybe the method he thought of is not rational, but this is not a strategic deduction. Lose this 1 minute.
opportunity, after Alan Parker announced the start of filming, there was no way to fight back.
At that time, no one would remember that Ronald was kind to them. From now on, when they talk about the "Famous" crew, their first impression will be: Do you know Jean and Ronald?... Hehehehe.
Ronald didn't want this impression to be fixed in the minds of everyone present. He stepped forward, faced Alan Parker alone, and wanted to beat him up.
Yes, the method that Ronald came up with was to beat up the director. Using violent methods to break his rumors is definitely impressive. Maybe in the future, when everyone in the crew talks about the crew of "Famous", they will think of you:
You know? Alan revealed Ronald's secret, and Ronald beat him up.
It doesn't seem to be very good either.
However, Ronald couldn't care less. He clenched his fists and looked directly at Alan Parker. Ronald's fighting instinct made Ronald's eyes look fierce, and Alan also reacted instinctively. If Ronald wanted to beat him, he would immediately raise his hand.
He raised his hands and made a boxing gesture to signal the opponent not to come any closer.
It seems to be saying, I have also practiced, come here if you have the guts.
Ronald let out a sneer in his nose. This is a real fight, not a boxing match in a rope ring. Today I will give you a taste of Chinese wrestling.
"If you ask me, Alan, you are blind." The words of choreographer Louis Falco interrupted Ronald's plan.
The first heroine of the crew, Erin Kara, who played Coco, came over, took Jean's hand, and the two walked out of the venue affectionately and walked to the dressing room.
Everyone, including Ronald, was shocked by this sudden turn of events. When did the two of them get along?
Moreover, Ronald knew that unlike himself, who was basically slandered by Alan Parker, Gene was really...
As the two walked along, everyone began to whistle and applaud to express their congratulations. Ronald noticed the producer David Da Silva, who was smiling in the crowd, and the man in a suit behind him, who turned out to be with Irene all the time.
·Kara’s agent.
It seemed that the producer and Gene were well prepared. There are no fools in this industry. Maybe except for himself, they stopped biting people because they thought they were avoiding poisonous snakes. Ronald began to review his previous strategy of blindly avoiding.
"So this love is one-way? Ronnie?" Alan Parker's viper-like voice came again, "Is your previous anger about Meg Tilly's loss all a disguise? Or are you the one who is the one?
That two-way plug?”
"You asked for this, Alan," Ronald thought to himself. He brought up Meg's matter again and reminded Ronald that this debt must be settled together.
A breeze blew across Ronald's face, and a familiar face appeared in front of Ronald's eyes.
It was Antonia Franceschi in dance clothes with her coat tied around her waist.
Antonia smiled at him. Today, her blond hair was tied back in a ponytail. Her feet were still wearing the leg warmers Ronald gave her that day, and she walked lightly with soft-soled dancing shoes.
She walked half a circle around Ronald, not too close but not too far away. He was neither a stranger riding the subway nor a couple who had already established a relationship.
Ronald felt that his anger suddenly disappeared, and that smiling face filled all the space in his heart.
Antonia took two steps and saw that Ronald didn't follow him, but stayed there stupidly. She couldn't help but look back at him. His two red ears made Antonia laugh again. It was really cute, and then
Shaking his head gave Ronald a signal to follow.
Ronald saw Antonia's signal and was stunned for half a second, and suddenly figured it out. Just like Irene Kara was arranged by the agent and producer to save Gene Ray.
Antonia was the angel who came to save him from an embarrassing situation. But no one ordered her. Antonia volunteered to save Ronald's reputation.
Ronald laughed, ignored Alan Parker next to him, and followed him.
He gently raised his arm and let Antonia hold her, and the two of them walked to the lounge outside the set. Ronald gently said "Thank you!" in Antonia's ear.
"No need to say thank you, Ronnie. You are like a knight. You saved me twice before. Once with leg warmers and once when Lucy fell out of the car."
"Then the princess in turn saved the knight. I like the ending of this story."
The audience whistled and applauded again.
"Alan, you are really blind." the choreographer said again.
