Chapter 139 Tips

After the premiere, Adrian took Kate away. Although he provided the outline of the script, most of the content was completed by the company's screenwriter, and he played a role in supervising the direction at most.

So in the subtitles at the end of the movie, his name is listed at the end of all screenwriters, so there is no need to attend the press conference later.

This version of "The Elf" is different from the one he remembers in many places. Of course, this difference refers to the control of the camera language. It is normal to have such deviations. Even if the same director makes the same movie, it is impossible to achieve the same thing except for the pervert Adrian.

Even so, there is no need to worry too much. Brad Seberning still grasped the main line well.

During the entire screening, laughter continued, and Casper gave up the opportunity to resurrection and left it to Katie's father. Although he got the opportunity to become a boy and Katie successfully dated, the plot changed after midnight also made many emotional people sigh.

In addition, the images of Casper and the three ghosts are also quite attractive. The crew spent millions of dollars to skillfully move the animation image into the movie, which not only retains the flavor of the animation but does not make people feel abrupt, especially the ghost image of several live actors after the deaths is even more interesting.

Therefore, when the movie was finished and the lights in the hall were on, warm applause immediately rang out.

This movie is also quite recognized in the eyes of the media. Empire magazine claimed that it is the best movie for the whole family to watch since the summer vacation; and Hollywood Reporter also believes that it is Brad's most humorous and warm work. Disney's family-friendly movies are always attractive. If you want to have a happy weekend with the whole family, then this movie is a good choice.

Although film critic Jon Riley commented on the actors' acting skills, he did not blame much: everyone did their duties, but Capps, who was a ghost, was smart and interesting, exactly the same as the animation.Fortunately, Sarah Michelle Gellar, who plays his daughter Katie, is also quite brilliant, smart and a little gloomy, otherwise it would be too bad for a live actor to lose to computer animation.

Adrian agrees with this review. In his opinion, Sarah's performance in the movie is more outstanding than the original Christina Ritchie. Perhaps this view is a bit subjective, but so what?

In short, the movie was very popular after it was released. This is certainly because there is nothing worth quarrel or digging in this PG-level movie, and it is also related to Disney's image and publicity strategy. After all, this type of movie is their signature.

Therefore, in the first week of its release, "The Elf" topped the North American box office rankings with a box office of 22 million, and depending on the momentum, it is likely to lead for a while.

Seeing this, Adrian turned his attention to other aspects and began to prepare to return to London to start the post-production of "Howard Manor", but just the day before he left, a sudden news forced him to postpone his trip.

Although he had already expected this to happen, Adrian couldn't help but sigh after receiving the news. This guy was really anxious. Fortunately, he was prepared and should have thrown his trump card out.

Spielberg flipped through the documents in his hand, frowned a little deeper, threw them out impatiently and then searched them on the table.

After reading this for two or three minutes, he changed more than ten copies of the documents and information in his hand, and many of them were thrown on the ground, but he still couldn't find what he wanted.

After humming annoyed and dissatisfied, Spielberg gave up the information on his desk and walked to the bookcase and started to flip through it again.

Finally, after he lost some of the files this time, he finally found the information he was looking for with black and white images.

After breathing a long sigh, he turned his head and was stunned. Only then did he realize that his simple and bright office had been occupied by various scattered materials.

With a little bitter smile, Spielberg placed the information he found on the coffee table next to him, and then began to clean up. After several times, he sighed and covered his forehead.

He has always been an unconventional person. His office is often messed up and is cleaned up by his secretary every time. So if he wants him to sort out these scattered materials, it will be no less difficult than letting him fly out of the window.

Hell, Steven, you can do it. Now you can't even do such a small thing.Spielberg took off the glasses from the bridge of his nose and muttered to himself while rubbing the corners of his clothes.

At this moment the telephone on the table rang: Mr. Steven, Mr. Adrian arrived.

After being stunned, Spielberg immediately reacted, walked over and pressed the communication button: Thank you, Melissa, please come in, and in addition, please pour us two cups of coffee.

After saying that, he glanced around. He was too lazy to clean up the things. Anyway, the information he needed was placed on his desk, although he was also in scattered.

So I picked up the document I found at the beginning and Spielberg sat back on the chair.

Hello Steven… Adrian was obviously surprised when he came in with his briefcase.

Sorry, Ed.Spielberg made a gesture, and as you can see, it seemed a little messy here because I was doing my final preparation.

It doesn't matter, sometimes I do this in the office.

Adrian smiled, walked to the desk and sat down, picked up the documents scattered on the floor and placed them neatly on the other side of the desk.

Spielberg looked at the young man in front of him with a slightly complicated expression. As before, he gave people a very good first impression.

But to this day, he still doesn't like him very much. He is too utilitarian and is a little anxious when doing things. He always wants to make the best things in the shortest time, and his private life is not very good.

In Hollywood, some things are secret, or even if the parties involved do not say them, it is enough to judge what happened based on some information revealed.

Of course, it’s enough to know these things in mind, and only fools will do it if they are done.

Besides, Drew Barrymore is still his goddaughter no matter what.

But from another perspective, Spielberg admires him very much, dares to do and think, his mind is filled with unexpected ideas, and every time he does it well, his work can both win reputation and box office.

Not everyone can win the Palme d'Or at the age of 24, and even Spielberg himself has never won it.

Then, we won’t have so many greetings.

Adrian coughed dryly at this time, interrupting Spielberg's thoughts. If I remember correctly, the later stage of "Jurassic Park" has not been completed yet, right?Why are you in a hurry to start a new movie?

Spielberg smiled slightly: How is your new movie?Many people are waiting to see jokes, especially the British.

Well... Adrian beat him up, with a little helplessness and self-deprecating look. It seems that many people asked him this during this period.

But he soon came to his senses and understood what Spielberg wanted to say.

It's different, Steven, I've finished making the next one every time.Adrian shook his head, not approving of his ideas.

Spielberg shrugged and suddenly asked other questions: Why would you want to bring Howard Manor to the big screen, Ed?You've never directed a movie of this type before, have you?

Because…I think I should do that.Adrian hesitated and finally sighed.

Don't worry, I've handed over all my post-work to Lucas, and as one of the people who know me the best, he understands what I want.I will contact him when I need to make a decision.

Spielberg sighed as he said, I've been waiting for too long.

I see.He tapped his fingers back and forth on the desk, and Adrian immediately said, "So, is there anything else?"It seems that if I don’t need to come over, do I?

Spielberg nodded: Yes, I believe you have read the script. As the best screenwriter in Hollywood, maybe you can provide some advice?

The best screenwriter in Hollywood?I dare not take this.

Adrian smiled, not taking it to heart, and his expression was not like a fake. Well, I don't have much advice on the script, you've done a good job, especially the scene of the liquidation in the Ghetto Krakow is right, I remember you said, planning to make this movie with black and white film?

Yes, I don't think that heavy feeling can be shown with color film.Spielberg said, looking at him without blinking.

Adrian seemed to have not seen it, and took out the heavy script from his briefcase, looked through several pages before saying: I have no objection, you are the director, so you have the final say.But to be honest, how do you plan to arrange Schindler's change?There must be a more logical statement or a more shocking shot, otherwise it is easy to lack persuasiveness.

I know that I specially arranged for him to see those people being shot with my own eyes, especially with many children, and I plan to give those children... some close-up shots here.

Spielberg nodded, hesitated for a while before saying: But I still think something is missing.

Ah... Adrian rubbed his chin, and a few seconds later he suddenly thought of something and asked: By the way, when I was collecting relevant information, I read a biography called "The Girl in Red: An Autobiography". The author is Roma Ligoka. He was one of the survivors in the concentration camp at the time. He seemed to be related to Roman Rolandsky?

Yeah?Spielberg looked puzzled, not understanding what Adrian wanted to say.

I think maybe you can set it up like this. When Schindler witnessed the massacre with his own eyes, he saw a little girl in red shuttled among the crowd, and finally hid in a house and crawled under the bed and covered her ears with gunshots.The bright red stinged Schindler's eyes, and then he began to transform!Until one day, when the Nazis dug out the dead bodies and burned them, he saw the dazzling bright red again on the wooden cart that transported the bodies!Do you understand, Steven!The only bright red among black and white, the most symbolic bright red!
