"Sin City" has a grand North American premiere.

At the trial screening, the film’s reputation in the media, film critics and audiences was quite good, and the subsequent publicity went smoothly. Miramax had great expectations and confidence in "Sin City", although it did not The film was placed in the highly competitive summer season, but it was also placed on the last weekend of April, and it was very likely to compete with the super producers of the summer season.

Miramax also invested heavily in the premiere, which was also held in the landmark Hollywood Chinese Theater in the Hollywood area.

Sitting in the back seat of the RV, Gal Gadot watched the buildings on the Avenue of Stars flashing past the car window, his right hand tightly holding Murphy's left hand.

"Are you nervous?" Murphy looked at her and asked caringly.

Gal Gadot shook his head first, then nodded, and finally took a deep breath and said, "A little bit."

"It's normal," Murphy shook her hand back. "I'm also a little nervous."

"Are you nervous too?" Gal Gadot didn't believe it.

"This is the first large-scale premiere I attended in North America." Murphy's calm face showed a hint of nervousness. "I also want to make a good impression on people, as well as the film's repercussions……"

Gal Gadot understood what Murphy was really nervous about, and said with relief, "Didn't all the reactions after the screening have been very good?"

Murphy shook his head slightly, "That's a small group of people after all."

This film appeared a few years earlier, and he also made a lot of his own changes. For example, the action scenes are mostly high-speed and slow-motion, and there is a larger scale of female characters. The actual effect of these is only after the large-scale release To know.

"Usually you always seem confident," Gal Gadot retracted his gaze from the window, looking at Murphy's beautiful profile, "It turns out that there are also times of worry."

Murphy smiled, "If I mess up a movie with such a big investment. Gale, a lot of what I got before will turn into a bubble, and I can only continue to fight in the independent film circle."

"I believe you!" Gal Gadot leaned over, and because of makeup, he gave him a false kiss on his side face, "You are the best."

The car gradually approached the Chinese Theater in Hollywood and slowed down, probably because there were still several cars waiting in front, and finally stopped in front of the Egyptian Theater near the Chinese Theater.

"Right," Murphy suddenly thought of what happened the other day. "The organizer didn't bother you, right?"

The photo of him shopping with Gal Gadot was unexpectedly seen in the newspapers. Several tabloids also published the headline "The new Hollywood director finds true love", but the photos are all Gael Gadot's back, that The paparazzi did not take a frontal shot of her.

"No one can recognize me, what can they say?" Gal Gadot shrugged playfully. "But for me to take time off to attend your premiere, the coaches and supervisors in charge of my group are not I’m so happy, some people say that I will be eliminated in the first round."

She didn't care, "It doesn't matter anymore, I never thought I could get a good ranking."

"That's fine," Murphy doesn't care about Miss Universe at all. "Gail, do you remember the advice I told you? If you want to study law, Berkeley College is very good."

"You were planning then?" Gal Gadot tilted his head and snorted softly. "I'll think about it for a while."

It's impossible to make a decision on this kind of thing right away, Murphy didn't say anything, there is still time later.

Cars parked in front of the red carpet, and guests got off the car and walked onto the red carpet. In order to attract attention and gain publicity, both Miramax and Murphy’s CAA spent a lot of money.

Catherine Zeta Jones and Michael Douglas have just passed by, and Gwyneth Paltrow is on the red carpet again. Behind her, Quentin Tarantino is helping Uma Thurman out of the car. ...

The most shocking thing was that CAA invited Tom Cruise, one of its ace actors. As soon as Tom walked on the red carpet, there were overwhelming cheers on both sides, the fame and appeal of Hollywood's super A-class superstar. Appears completely.

In contrast, the protagonists of "Sin City" are much weaker, but when Robert Downey Jr., James Franco and Jessica Alba appeared, they also won applause.

The black RV finally stopped in front of the red carpet, Murphy took the lead to get out of the car, and a large number of media reporters focused their cameras on him.

Although far less famous than Tom Cruise, he is after all the director of the film and one of the protagonists of this premiere.

In the countless flashing lights, Murphy turned and lowered his head and stretched out a hand into the car. Gal Gadot took his hand and got out of the car.

When she was standing next to Murphy, the flashing lights turned on more frequently.

Murphy wore a black dress, Gal Gadot in a white fishtail evening dress, and the two clenched hands together, they all told reporters clearly what their relationship was.

"Who is this woman?"

Many reporters murmured while filming, "Is it Murphy Stanton's girlfriend?"

"I haven't heard that he has a girlfriend?"

"With such a good figure and such a strange face, isn't it a model?"

Another reporter couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and asked loudly, "Director Stanton, is this your girlfriend?"

Murphy didn't seem to hear it, and smiled and beckoned to the reporters, pulling Gal Gadot along the red carpet to the main entrance of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood.

"She's so beautiful!"

"What a good figure!"

With the support of the staff, Murphy heard a lot of comments when passing through the reporter's place.

"Have you heard?" Murphy leaned into Gal Gadot's ear. "They are all complimenting you."

"You're not bad," Gal Gadot said in a low voice with a smile.

She has undergone rigorous physical training and participated in the Miss Universe contest. Benefits and makeup are compulsory items. After the tension on the red carpet disappeared, her appearance, temperament and smiling manners were perfect.

Joining hands on the red carpet, she and Murphy did attract a lot of attention.

Coming to the area with the auditorium, Murphy whispered to Gal Gadot, let go of her hand, and walked to the auditorium, where many people held up the poster of "Sin City" and a small amount of it. A sign that says'Murphy Stanton'.

When preparing for the premiere yesterday, Bill Rossis and Grace specifically confessed to Murphy that they wanted to sign some audience members.

This is a routine project on the red carpet. The signature is not important. The important thing is to show the attitude of attaching importance to movie fans.

"Murphy, this way! This way!"

There was a high-pitched female voice that was very loud, Murphy smiled at that side, then came to the audience, someone immediately handed a fountain pen, after Murphy took it, the fans stuffed various posters and signs in front of him, Keep underwriting your name.

These fans are very enthusiastic and gossip.

"Murphy, are you married?"

"Are you really only 23 years old?"

"What's the next movie? I love your Cult movie to death!"

That high-pitched reputation sounded again, this time it was much smaller, and it was very crisp in a male voice, "Murphy, is she your girlfriend?"

Murphy looked up at her. This was a young girl in her early twenties. She smiled and replied, "She is my girlfriend."

The girl pushed the poster in her hand, "Can you write it for dear Daisy?"

"For my dear Daisy!" Murphy wrote this line directly on the poster and signed her name at the back. The girl said loudly, "Murphy, I love you! Remember, my name is Daisy! "

Putting the pen to her, Murphy stepped back, no longer signed, nodded to the girl, turned back to Gal Gadot, did not stop, and walked directly into the photo area in front of the theater.

The rest are routine activities, but Robert Downey Jr., James Franco and others are very surprised that Gal Gadot can come to the premiere.

"Let me introduce to you,"

After the routine group photo of the crew, Murphy called Gal Gadot over and formally introduced him to his friends, "This is my girlfriend, Miss Gadot."

He introduced Gal Gadot one by one, "This is Robert Downey Jr., this is James Franco, this is Seth Logan, this is Jonah Hill, they are my best friends. ."

After Gal Gadot had finished greeting the four guys, Murphy took her to find Bill Roses and Grace and introduced them to both sides.

"Murphy, can I talk to Miss Gadot alone? Just one minute."

Hearing what Grace said, Murphy looked at Gal Gadot and saw her nodding slightly, and said, "Of course."

The two men took the lead into the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, Murphy and Bill Rossis walked behind.

"Can you tell me about this kind of thing in the future?" Bill Rossis looked at Murphy with a clear complaint in his tone, "No agent likes such a surprise attack."

Murphy understood that he was negligent in this regard, and said, "Sorry, Bill."

He patted Bill Rossis on the back, "I'm just a director, I believe this kind of thing will not cause you too much trouble."

After all, he is a director, not a star.

Bill Rossis nodded, "You still have to notify me in advance of this kind of thing."

"No problem." Murphy responded with a smile.

As soon as he walked into the front of the theater, Murphy saw Gal Gadot slowing down, and Bill Rossis nodded, speeded up slightly, and came to her.

"What did Grace talk to you?" he asked.

"Ask me if I have dealt with the media before," Gal Gadot took Murphy's arm and followed her into the crew. "Tell me if a reporter or paparazzi came to me to ask questions, don't just say anything."

Murphy is not worried about this. Gal Gadot is Miss Universe from Israel and has some experience. The two entered the main hall of the theater with the crew.
