Chapter 150 Calm before the arrival

Since the release of the movie, the American media that praises the movie has increased from 80% to 90%. As for the reasons, it has been analyzed before, so there is no need to say more.

However, it is worth mentioning that Lavern seized this opportunity very well, allowing Fox, who was in charge of the distribution, to quickly contact more theaters, so it was a case that it had won 30 million yuan in box office in less than three weeks.

Basically, the cost is just made back, and other places overseas have not been released in other places except the UK. Perhaps "Smelling the Fragrance" cannot make a huge profit like "Pulp Novel", which just went offline. "Pulp Novel", which was offline before Thanksgiving, has swept away $110 million in North America alone. Although it is still being released overseas, it will not lose to North America when watching the momentum. Adrian's popularity has made this movie make more profits, but it is definitely no problem.

So people must write another note for Adrian in their hearts.

Although there are other reasons why such a movie can recover the cost in less than three weeks, Lavern's vision and decisive approach are still worthy of recognition.

Even though he had been moved many times, Adrian, who received the news, couldn't help but sigh in his heart that it was really lucky to be able to find such a talent.

Compared with the unanimously praised film reviews, the fans' opinions are much more diverse. Pacino's fans undoubtedly like it very much, and many people repeatedly go to the cinema to watch it.

Adrian's fans half liked and half disliked. Those who liked it think that the movie told a good story, which was touching and inspiring; those who didn't like it think that Adrian lost his most proud style and began to compromise with the mainstream.

However, in addition to some more extreme guys, such as being obsessed with "Pulp Novels", I wish I could learn from the characters in it and live in every move. Most people at least don't hate it.

Adrian heard of these things, because the movie was unanimously praised, and the media had to circle around him. Compared with the current situation, there was news everywhere, so it was difficult for him to react without knowing it.

However, Adrian never made a positive response, but just said a few words through the spokesperson, such as thanking everyone for their support and Al's outstanding performance is the key.

So Al Pacino, who was originally the focus of entertainment journalists because of the release of "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Woman", was treated more enthusiastically because of his words. A few days before Thanksgiving, when he went out, he would be blurred by countless flashes of his eyes.

Even so, Pacino still praised Adrian in his words.

He is an excellent director, he is always good at shaking the atmosphere, and I am very happy to work with him, as The Hollywood Reporter says, this is my best role in the past two years!

That's what Pacino said.

Similarly, Pacino said it at the beginning of the year, but unfortunately no one took it seriously at that time. Now if someone thinks about it, he will definitely have all kinds of flavors.

Unfortunately, journalists don’t feel this way. All they want is news.

However, after Thanksgiving, more than half of such reporters were missing, and the media that had always praised "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Woman" began to return to peace, a strange and strange calm, as if a storm was about to come...

Thank you for your kind hospitality, Godfather, it was a pleasant evening.Standing in front of the villa, Adrian held his girlfriend and said goodbye to his godfather's family.

Glad you came here to spend this wonderful holiday with us, kids.Benny Dickett laughed and hugged his godson. It would be great if it was like this every year.

This is a good offer.

Adrian said as he looked at Claude beside the godfather, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but I had a better one, Clau's new villa is on Beverly Hills, not far from me, so we can come back together on important festivals every year.

Claude immediately showed an unexpected look, but before he could speak, Benedict smiled and said: Of course, Beth and I would not object, do you think, Crow?

No problem, dad, as long as Claude glared at Adrian invisible, and made a neck-pinching action under his hands. Ed remembers to call me.

I don't think Ed will forget it.Beth inserted it in at this time, then smiled and looked at Kate who was holding Adrian. Of course, remember to bring Kate with him, so that we will be happier.

Would you like to come together, Kate?Adrian then looked at his girlfriend.

Unparalleled honor!Kate replied immediately, although he had a reserved smile on his face, he was absent-minded for a few minutes just now, so his smile seemed a little nervous.

Adrian pinched her hand and said formal goodbye to the godfather: Then, we will go back.

Let your father's driver take you back, you have drunk a lot before.Claude said at this time.

No, I know it.Adrian waved his hand, just drive it a little slower, don't worry.

The car soon arrived on the street and drove towards Beverly Hills in the night.As he said just now, the speed was maintained very well, neither too fast nor as slow as a snail.

Do you have any worries, Kate?Enjoying the cool breeze blowing from the car window, Adrian asked after glanced at the girl beside him.

nothing.Kate, who came to his senses, smiled apologetically, just in a daze.

real?Adrian asked, "It's not because the Godfather and Beth left a bad impression on you?"

How could it be, they are all very good people.Kate's tone contained a hint of coquettishness. It was me who left a bad impression. I was absent-minded several times throughout the night.

Speaking of this, she suddenly sighed and looked ahead and stopped talking.

I know that in fact, your absent-mindedness has not been once or twice during this period, so I asked you this.

Adrian slowed down and turned his head, Kate, can you tell me what's going on?You know, I've always been your best listener and I'm willing to do anything for you.

Kate looked at him opening his mouth but said nothing, and Adrian immediately gave her an understanding smile: It's okay, everyone has something they don't want to say, but, if you want to say it, I want to be your first listener.

After she smiled and nodded, the silence in the carriage returned to its original state, and after a few dozen minutes, the two returned to Adrian's villa.

As soon as he got out of the car, a cool breeze blew over. Kate, wearing a thin-shouldered dress, couldn't help rubbing his arms. Adrian next to him immediately took off his coat and put it on her.

Thanks!Kate smiled, hesitated for two seconds and suddenly asked: By the way, Ed, some time ago... when I called London, you didn't seem to be there.

Yes, I secretly returned to Los Angeles those days.Adrian replied straightforwardly without thinking.

Back to Los Angeles secretly?Kate's eyes widened, why?Why...not tell me?

Oh, my dear, you have to know that I was staring at the reporters very closely during that period.

Adrian explained that, and the work in London is not over yet. If it weren't for the important things to be dealt with in Los Angeles, I'm afraid I would have to wait until "Smelling the Scent of the Scent" is released. Only Crow and Laver knew that I was in Los Angeles those days.

But...but...Kate hesitated and didn't know what to say.

OK, if you are angry about this, can I apologize?Adrian said sincerely as he hugged Kate's shoulder and grabbed her hand and looked at her eyes.

No, I just... Kate held his hand, and before he finished speaking, a warm feeling came from his face, so Adrian came over and gave her a kiss.

Then the hand that was holding her shoulders slid to her waist and took her to circle the vestibule.

Kate subconsciously wrapped his neck around him, shrank his neck and squinted his eyes while being taken to fly, and then he punched him on the shoulder with a angrily: Ed!

Are you happier now?Adrian looked at her with a smile.

I really want to know, if you accidentally threw me out just now and a reporter was watching this scene outside and took a photo, what would be the headlines of tomorrow's newspaper?

Kate said, glaring at him angrily.

First of all, I will never throw you out.Adrian shook his head and smiled, secondly, there are no reporters outside the villa now.

No?So sure?Kate looked at the door in disbelief. A few days ago, you said that the reporters who surrounded you on the street were as hateful as flies.

Of course, they have become silent these days, waiting for the last moment to come.

Adrian also looked at the door with a smile on his face. Didn't you notice that the media have started talking about something else these days?

It seems right... Kate turned his head and thought for a while, then looked at Adrian in confusion. Why is this?

Because, the movie you starred in a supporting role is about to be released.Adrian said still stumbled around the bush.

You mean "Howard Manor"?

Kate blinked and finally realized that she was not a fool, and when she was criticized by the British media for filming "Howard Manor", she was on the crew and knew the whole thing very well.

To put it this way, some people are worried about you making jokes, while some people have been wanting to see your jokes for a long time.She looked at Adrian's narrow-minded eyes and bent.

Unfortunately, many people are destined to be disappointed, and I don’t do things that I don’t know.

Adrian shrugged and looked free and easy, know, Kate, your performance is excellent.In my opinion, second only to Emma Thompson and Anthony Hopkins.

After hearing what you said, I suddenly wanted to see this movie right away.Kate said with eyes flowing.

Soon, let’s talk about it first.Adrian smiled and walked into the room with his arms around her waist again.
