Best Actor

Vol 2 Chapter 185: Nicole's mind

    Reality is always more bizarre than fiction. Who would have thought that such a movie that was about to go offline, after being involved in a crime incident, not only was not won directly, but the box office increased? If this is the plot of the novel, there will definitely be critics from readers: it is too much!

    Unfortunately, the truth is the truth, and it will not change anything because of the "too ridiculous" view, even if someone uses the topic to play it.

    "It's a sad thing, when people in Maryland are still panicking under the threat of gunmen, people in most parts of the country are flocking to theaters to see "Sniper Phone Booth" What kind of movie is it, and why would a Washington shooter commit a crime,” wrote a somewhat well-known internet critic on his blog.

    But with Fox's efforts, these bashes are irrelevant, the movie's box office is still recovering, and then remains at a height that looks likely to break the 70 million height when it goes offline.

    Unfortunately, this is the place to go. Now is the cusp of the storm. Fox can't seize this opportunity to make a big publicity. If the ending is the one that Sean first proposed, maybe you can try the impact Higher box office, but for now this... forget it. This is why Schumacher feels regretful. It is easy to see a movie that makes him completely proud of himself. Naturally, the higher the box office, the better. It could have been higher, but he missed it because he didn't stick to it. Are people more depressing?

    Then, now that the criminal has finally been caught, it is reported that they denied that they committed the crime because they watched "Sniper Phone Booth". Whether it is true or not, this does not prevent Fox from taking the opportunity to organize a charity auction Yes, to raise money for the victims of this incident to honor themselves. As for the discussion of film and television works and crime rates, no matter how lively it is now, Hollywood will still do what it should do after that. As long as it is a little low-key when discussing, it will be fine.

    As the first protagonist of this movie, Sean must be swept up by public opinion, so he must make an appearance at the charity auction and spend some money to show his attitude.

    "Attitude is very important, even if it's just a show, you have to show it and let people know who you are on." As soon as Frederick heard the news about "Sniper Phone Booth", he Started chattering on the phone.

    Finally, he did not forget to communicate before issuing a statement, conveying Sean's sympathy and condolences to the victims and his condemnation of the criminals. And luckily, four days after the statement was made, the two criminals were arrested.

    Then, Sean took leave and went back to Los Angeles to spend money. Although there are no good things to buy at charity auctions, and most of them are bought back by those who sell them, but sometimes There will also be good ones.

    "It's really not cold." Katie said in a surprised tone while stroking the jade pendant in her hands, then she quickly covered her mouth and looked around, seeing that no one noticed her, This is relieved.

    As soon as she looked up, she saw Sean's half-smiling eyes, her face turned red, and she immediately pouted and snorted: "What's so funny, this is the first time I've seen it To such a beautiful emerald."

    "I didn't smile, I just thought you looked cute." Although Sean said so, the smile on his face became stronger.

    As an actor who has been out of the country in "Sniper Phone Booth", she was naturally invited. It happened that the American version of "The Grudge" had finished shooting in early October, so she made an appointment with Sean at the auction meet at the meeting.

    "I don't believe it." Katie continued to hum, took out the pendant and rubbed it again, "Is this… really for me?"

    "Of course, this is what girls wear, I can't use it." Sean opened his eyes and lied, but this jade pendant that cost him $120,000 is really beautiful , that pure and warm feeling is quite comfortable, wearing a long beige dress, Katie, who was already cute, is undoubtedly more suitable for wearing it.

    "Oh? This is what girls wear." Katie squinted at Sean, deliberately prolonged her voice, and her eyes flashed.

    Sean knows what that means, well, she's not sluggish and clueless, though she's dazed from time to time.

    "Yeah, so it's the most suitable for you, even if it doesn't fit, just keep a look at home from time to time and you'll think of me." Sean laughed, then turned away Topic, "By the way, is there any place you want to go tomorrow?"

    This topic successfully diverted Katie's attention, but at the same time, Sean also sighed in his heart, knowing that the place he wants to go most this time is Naomi's place, other Not to mention, the American version of "Midnight Bell" was released on the 18th, and it won a box office of 16 million in 1,900 theaters in the first week. It is worthy of congratulations that it has been firmly at the top of the box office list in this off-season.

    Although "Mulholland Drive" brought her word of mouth, it only brought word of mouth, never expect David Lynch's box office. And the American version of "Midnight Bell" not only brought word of mouth - although it refers to the word of mouth of the plot - but also brought the box office, and this is what Naomi lacks the most. It can be said that with this film, Naomi has truly gained a foothold in Hollywood.

    In this case, Sean should congratulate him in person, but... who made Katie go back to Los Angeles and participate in Fox's charity auction?

      …

    And, even if Katie is done, the end of the month will come, and the remake of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" is already scheduled for release on Halloween. With an investment of almost 10 million, there will definitely not be any premieres. However, although the evaluations received at the scheduled test screenings were somewhat polarized, film critics felt that there was nothing new, while ordinary audiences found it very exciting. The version is incomparable at all. Vladimir still persuaded Weinstein to help contact nearly 3,000 theaters. How can Sean follow up at this time.

    In this way, I can only say sorry to Naomi on the phone, and she didn't seem to care too much, clearly expressed her understanding, and the soft voice made Sean a little ashamed.

    So, when he reconfirmed that the prospect of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" should be no problem, he immediately returned to the "Cold Mountain" crew in advance, hoping to complete the play in a short time, and then Take a good rest for a while. Basically, up to now, the role of Inman has been completely absorbed by him. From a performance point of view, there is not much difficulty. It is mainly Nicole's cooperation, and it will probably be closed within a week or two.

    However, Sean obviously forgot something, and a test awaits him.

    …

    "Okay, I'll be right there." Nicole replied to her assistant without looking back, and quickly turned over a few pages of the script. After saying a few lines, I got up and walked to the studio.

    It was a few steps away, and then she saw the kid, who was standing by the camera and talking to Mingla.

    Nicole couldn't help but snorted in her heart. She wasn't dissatisfied with Sean, but... well, she was dissatisfied, but she didn't know why.

      She has many men, which makes Nicole somewhat jealous.

    Yes, jealous, although the previous ten years of marriage allowed her to successfully establish a foothold in Hollywood, only she knows the taste of it. If there were still some feelings before, after all, they had been together for ten years, but the other party filed for divorce before the expiration of ten years, which was really chilling. For that guy, at that moment, he only had interests in his eyes.

    So Nicole doesn't understand, although Sean is indeed very good-looking, talkative, funny, has read many books, and can pick up a few sentences on any topic, but also because of this, it makes people feel good. At first glance, it is a playboy. She tried it out several times, and Rachel also said that he was very suitable for a one-night stand, although she said it in a joking tone, but Nicole would not think it was just talk, after all, Rachel herself Also admitted, had dinner with Sean.

    So what attracted Naomi? Nicole asked, but Naomi either laughed and didn't answer, or diverted the topic, which made her very worried. If Naomi, who finally became famous, eventually became the next Meg Ryan, that would be great. shit?

    Nicole admits that she wants to win over Naomi. Although she has accumulated a lot of contacts in the past ten years, there is always a lack of people around her who can support each other. Even though she was born in Honolulu, she grew up in Australia, so most people regard her as an Australian actress. This is quite detrimental to her development. Everyone knows that Hollywood and Oscar prefer native-born Americans.

    So she needs companions, famous companions, and needs to form her own small circle. Before this, she and several Australian actors, Hugh Jackman, Russell Crowe, have maintained Good relationship, but not many female actors. Cate Blanchett is great, but this woman has always been low-key and hard to see in magazines unless there is publicity, so the news that Naomi is finally famous makes her very happy.

    In fact, she started helping a few years ago, but Nicole was far less famous then, and Naomi never seized the opportunity, so that she once lost confidence. Now that Naomi has finally made a splash with "Mulholland Drive", she certainly wants to extend an olive branch, and her recommendation to audition for the heroine of the American version of "Midnight Bell" is one of them.

    However, it would be nonsense to say that the two did not have any sisterhood. After all, they went to school together, went out together, and talked together, and Naomi also participated in her wedding. Before the bachelor party, I also came to comfort the first time when I got divorced. It is impossible to have no feelings at all. Therefore, no matter from which angle, Nicole cannot tolerate Naomi being delayed and deceived.
