Chapter 294 Remember it to me

Adrian shouldn't have attended the premiere of "War of the World". The protagonist of the movie is Tom Cruise. Even though he and Nicole were holding hands to return to the hotel in Cannes were half a month ago, and his subsequent speeches to European filmmakers diverted most people's attention, but there was always someone staring at this.

After all, things were very buzzing between him, Nicole and Cruise at the beginning. The rumors about Adrian hooking up with Nicole because of directing "The Eye Opening" have never stopped and are still circulating on the Internet from time to time.

If he appeared on the red carpet of the premiere of the movie starring Cruise at this time, or even met Cruise, it would inevitably cause a huge wave in the media, and the previous cold scandals would return to the public eye, which is definitely not a good thing.

Of course, with Tom Cruise's attitude towards Adrian, if he meets on the red carpet, it must be a brain that gets in.

There are only two situations that can make him do this. Either show goodwill to Adrian and borrow the current highly anticipated state to gain some positive attention, or use this method to make things difficult for Adrian and Nicole.

Of course, with Cruise's personality and wisdom, the former cannot be used even if he thinks about it, but the latter...

I never thought of it.

So Adrian is very low-key to attend the premiere of "War of the World" this time. His main purpose is to test the reactions of Hollywood Jews to "The Pianist" through Spielberg.

Although it is more convenient to pass Weinstein and there is no need to be so anxious, Spielberg, who directed "Schindler's List", is undoubtedly the most suitable, and the sooner he prepares, the better. After all, he has another goal. Anyway, he doesn't appear on the red carpet, just don't meet Cruise.

In fact, this purpose was basically achieved. Even though both of them were a little unclear, the meaning was still clear, and Adrian also took this opportunity to say that his production of "The Pianist" was influenced by Spielberg.

This is very important. To achieve your goals, it is necessary to obtain support from the Jewish group. In any case, Jewish funds in Hollywood account for a lot of weight.

In a sense, he is a game among several parties, so as long as it is a good thing, he should fight for it.

Of course, the degree of the wire must be well grasped. As long as it can be controlled properly, the wire is still very stable.

To be honest, Adrian really didn't think about directing "The Pianist" himself. Although he asked Spieman to find Spieman and re-release "Dead City", it was just a wait-for-money, wanting to sell personal favors to Polansky or the Jewish group.

So when Polansky found someone to come to buy the adaptation rights, Adrian almost agreed, but after he thought carefully, he completed his plan and pushed it to a higher peak, and then put it on the list and found the current situation.

So, that's it for the time being, and you can start that movie.

After chatting with Spielberg, he said hello to several acquaintances, and Adrian was about to leave.

He came here secretly, and there was no need to go to the screening room to watch the screening of "War of the World" and Cruise certainly didn't like to see him before the movie began or ended.

However, as he was about to leave the side door, a little girl's voice stopped him: Mr. Cowell.

Hannah?Looking back, Dakota Fanning caught up with him panting.

I'm so sorry...Mr. Cowell.The little girl who stopped gasped for two times before showing a smile, hoping that I didn't disturb you.

Oh, of course not, I was just about to leave, and also, just call me Adrian or Ed.Adrian looked at her curiously, "Is there anything I need to serve?"

No, nothing is wrong.Dakota quickly explained, I just wanted to... thank you.

thank?Adrian raised his eyebrows.

Yes!

The little girl nodded, and she showed a cute and shy smile on the way. I know, you have been taking care of me all the time and recommended me many excellent characters. I am very grateful, very grateful, so... so I always want to thank you in person, Cowell... Ed.Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity in the future, but I just heard Mr. Spielberg say that you are here, but I didn't hold back for a while... so I came here... I didn't see you, so I guess you definitely don't want too many people to know, so I found this place. I didn't... deliberately want to disturb you...

She said a little stutteringly, her little face was red, her eyes moved everywhere, as if she didn't dare to look at him because of her shyness, which made her look particularly cute.

Adrian raised his eyebrows slightly, then changed into a gentle smile: This is nothing, you are a girl with great potential, and I should recommend you, so don't come here to thank me.

No!The little girl's tone became firm. Maybe Ed thought it would not be necessary, but I know that without Ed's guidance, I would not be able to get the honors like today so easily...

She said, thrusting her chest as if she had gathered up her courage and looking at him with her wide open blue eyes: Can you still guide me more in the future?

With a slight eyebrow raised again, Adrian suddenly leaned down, leaned in front of her, and reached out to rub her blonde hair: Of course, I said, you are a very potential girl.

Thanks.Dakota smiled brightly, stood on tiptoe and pecked his face lightly at lightning speed, and then ran away quickly.

Another little goblin, huh?

Adrian, who looked at her back slowly straightened up, hummed softly in his heart.

No, not only she is a little smaller than the little fairy at that time. Tsk, who can escape the temptation of fame and fortune?

Especially for girls who are very precocious. Is it lucky or unfortunate to have such precocious children?

The question was immediately thrown behind her mind, no matter what hints Dakota had, she was too young now.

Therefore, even though the current turmoil has not subsided, there are still constant quarrels between the Atlantic Ocean, Adrian is still being paid attention to by many people, and the momentum of "The Pianist" has continued, and he soon devoted himself to the filming of the new movie "Out of Control".

This is a very simple shot, you just need to walk from here to there, and you don’t need any extra body language.But this is also a complex lens, the focus of the lens will be on your face, and you need to express at least two kinds of emotions.

In the huge studio, Adrian talked to Natalie about the show.

No clear regulations?Natalie said, pursing her lips.

No.Adrian nodded. What kind of feelings is up to you. Although you can do it through montage in the later stage, I still hope it can be completed by you.

After saying that, he began to call the lighting engineer and the props to prepare, and after everyone was in place, he signaled to start shooting.

There are not many scenes in "Out of Control". The most important thing is that there are a few outdoor scenes at home and in the company, so 80% of the content can be completed in the studio.

As for the remaining 20%, there are too many suitable locations outside the studio. Even if they are not suitable, as long as Adrian is willing to invest, he will pull the curtains around and move the background up during post-production.

So even though the movie is currently attracting much attention because of its popularity and the film is attracting much attention, Adrian is always in front of the scene because of the incident in Cannes, but it is still very easy to isolate people's attention to the new work, which is easier than "Pianist", at least before "Pianist" is fully released, it is best to keep the news that director Miracle filmed a new movie.

Of course, the reason why this is achieved is mainly due to the simpler storyline of the script.

This script can be regarded as an original work by Adrian. It mainly describes the fact that in a deformed family, a single mother has a perverted control over her because she has raised her daughter independently.

Because my daughter has taken care of everything about life by her mother since she was young, she can only accept it passively and has no own opinion.

This situation changed after the daughter worked in the company she transferred a new supervisor. The new supervisor was a playboy. For some reason, the relatively rustic daughter entered his eyes, so the supervisor tried to hook her up.

My daughter, who has no opinion, has no idea what to do about this kind of thing, but the company has to promote a group of people at this time, and she is very lucky to be among them, so she has to deal with the supervisor, and her daughter's only friend is there to give her advice.

Everything was pretty good. Although she needed to be false with the supervisor, her daughter's long-term closed heart slowly began to untie it until one day she accidentally saw her only friend and supervisor talking intimately, and doubt began to gradually grow in her heart, and she gradually began to suspicion.

In addition, the mother at home still took strict care of her and had hardly heard what she said in her heart. She just asked her to follow her instructions and demanded that she must strive for promotion. The conflict between mother and daughter also began to become sharp.

These are intertwined together, which is already very sensitive and has a serious lack of security. However, the daughter, who is usually suppressed by her mother, has begun to become a little nervous.

Especially when she found that her only friend was also on the list of possible promotions, this neuroticism became even stronger. Later, she began to have hallucinations under various tortures, as if someone wanted to harm her. The originally orderly life was completely in chaos, but finally broke out, everything was out of control and everyone was hurt.

The plot looks familiar, right?

and a certain ballet movie.

In fact, Adrian did draw on some of the things from that ballet movie when writing the script, but he borrowed more from other movies.

Putting aside those expressions, similar plots are everywhere in American movies. For example, the scene where a mother strictly controls her daughter, and the daughter resists because of a series of things, which eventually leads to a major disaster can be traced back to "The Witch Carrie" in the 1970s.

The key is the way of expression, such as the superpowers in "The Witch Carrie", such as the ballet in the ballet movie.

As long as the expression can resonate with the audience, even the most bloody plot will only add icing on the cake. Just like using ballet to express the heroine's mood changes, it is indeed very innovative.

However, Adrian threw this far away without careful consideration. He said a long time ago that in movies about dance, ballet is the hardest to shoot, or the hardest to let the protagonist take part in person.

As long as an ordinary dance is connected for a certain period of time, the actors can basically dance as if they are decent, and then edit it later and the effect will come out.

But ballet is different, ballet has high physical requirements, so most ballet actors have started training since childhood, and those who fail are eliminated early.

In addition to those exquisite techniques, the delicate movements that require various tensions cannot be compensated by an inexperienced actor through half a year or even a year of training.

Of course, there is also montage. Excellent post-production editing can always get the desired effect, making it impossible to tell whether the actor or the stand-in are jumping in front of the camera, especially now that CG technology is leaping through time.

As early as the time of "Gladiator", the head change technique had been used, not to mention now.

But the question arises again. Although it is convenient, don’t forget what Adrian’s goal is to do this!

Generally speaking, a film like this that has a dance aspect will not consider it unless the protagonist can personally complete 80% to 90% of the movements.

This is why Audrey Hepburn was not even nominated because most of the singing and dancing in "My Fair Lady" were done by a stand-in.

Adrian may be able to use various techniques, such as taking more shots of her dancing herself, and then claiming that most of the shots in the edited are hers, and the entire crew can testify for her, and the possibility of success is very high at other times.

However, now is not the ordinary time. Hollywood has no idea how many pairs of eyes are staring at Adrian. Once the flaw is caught by the other party, it may affect the entire plan, even if he has a backup plan.

It is not affected by the bottom line. Besides, the more you are in this situation, the more you have to win the right way and not to be honest. Although judging from his final plan for Natalie, the previous method seems to be more inclusive.

Adrian also believes that with his current control ability, it is absolutely not difficult to direct such a movie. Anyway, all you need is to show Natalie's acting skills, and the whole movie is enough to serve this. In fact, the way to express these bloody plots is acting!

So Adrian repeatedly emphasized his acting skills before, and asked Natalie to make a breakthrough by herself, so earlier he took her to meet those teenagers who were troubled by the same problems, hoping to inspire her.

But this was still a difficult shooting. The first shot was NG for a whole day and everyone seemed exhausted when they finished work.

If you do the same thing dozens of times, even people made of steel will inevitably feel tired.

We will continue tomorrow.

Adrian announced with a frown, then sat in the director's chair and closed his eyes and thought for a few minutes, then got up and walked to Natalie and whispered to her a few more words, then went back to her office here.

Because AC Media acquired Universal Pictures, Universal Studios naturally became its own industry, so it set up its office at the foot of the mountain, away from the famous offices like No. 5171, located on the cinema tour route, so as not to be disturbed by tourists from all over the world.

Come in.Adrian, who closed his eyes and rested, shouted as soon as he heard the knock on the door.

Natalie had already packed up and walked in and silently reached the front of her desk.

Do you know where your problem is?Adrian asked as he opened his eyes and looked at her.

Too many emotions to try?Natalie asked tentatively in an uncertain tone.

Of course not.

Adrian waved his hand suddenly, what are you worried about?What are you hesitating about?I can clearly feel that you have made a few times, and you can break through a little bit several times, and you can achieve the desired effect perfectly, but every time you reach that last point, you always choose to retreat.

He stood up, supported his hands on the table, leaning forward and looking at her condescendingly: Tell me, Nada, what are you hesitating about?!

……nothing.Natalie pursed her lips for a while before saying this.

nothing?Adrian sneered, worried about failure?Worrying that I won't let you go?Worry about being exposed?Worrying about falling from the clouds?

Natalie turned her head aside without saying a word. She knew that all these words were right when she saw her ears so popular because of shame and anger.

Adrian didn't say anything, but just looked at her coldly. After a long time, he walked out from behind the desk and walked straight to the door and locked it.

Realizing what he wanted to do, Natalie stood up in a hurry, and before she could speak, Adrian grabbed her wrist and turned it over, then pressed her to the desk.

You hurt me.Natalie screamed in pain.

But Adrian had no intention of being pity Xiang Xiyu at all. He reached out to untie her belt and then pulled down her trousers.

Stop, stop!Otherwise I want... Natalie shouted in shame, but she answered her with a strong sting, like stuffing sausages into two slices of bread without wiping jam, which made her scream.

Remember!Have I told you anything?She was angry!She is unwilling to accept it!She wants to get rid of her control!She wants to decide her own life!but!She is confused!She was scared!She is hesitant!Because she has never tried it!She didn't have the courage to try either!She seems strong and actually fragile!She seems smart and actually stupid!She thought she had gotten rid of everything!Actually, nothing is obtained!right!That's right!That's how you feel now!It's the reaction of your body!That's it!Remember it to me!Did you hear it, Natalie!Remember it to me!If you can't do it, I'll do it once a day!Do you understand!

The man's roar echoed in the room, accompanied by the girl's sad whimper.
