Superstar

Chapter 242: Missed

The domestic film market once reached a peak in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but then due to the impact of television, video tapes, and piracy, the film market continued to shrink. After entering the 1990s, the number of viewers in the domestic film market was only One percent of the peak period. Under such circumstances, importing foreign films has become a life-saving straw for the film industry.

Therefore, at the end of 19, the domestic introduction of foreign films was started. At the beginning, only ten films were allowed to be introduced each year. This plan was undoubtedly a shot in the heart of the entire film market. Films from Hong Kong entered the mainland market. The movie market is booming again. Subsequently, Warner Bros.'s "Death End" entered the domestic market with a box office split.

"Death End" also became the first American film to be introduced in domestic history. Then in 19 years, "True Lies", "Lion King", and "Forrest Gump" began to enter the domestic film market, officially It opened the way for the domestic film market to connect with the world.

As the first person to eat crabs, "Death of the Dead" was the only American movie in the country that was legally stationed in major movie theaters in 1994. At that time, Hugo also went to the movie theater under the leadership of his parents to join in the fun, but at that time Hugo But he was only five years old, and he didn't remember what the movie was acting in. He just vaguely remembered that he had eaten a lot of snacks and slept beautifully.

Many years later, when Hugo grew up, he had the opportunity to watch the movie "Desperate End" again, but the impression was not deep enough. In fact, "Death of Destiny" is a typical Hollywood blockbuster. The plot turns and the climax is repeated. Many classic action scenes are indeed commendable, but in the eyes of Hugo, who has watched countless blockbusters, it really lacks some appeal.

In fact, "Death End" not only achieved a huge box office success, but also won the best supporting actor at the Oscars, and nominated for the best picture. It can be seen that this movie is still quite acclaimed. . There are the thrilling ‘excitement’ of commercial blockbusters, and there are also ‘exquisite’ performances that are worth exploring.

This movie is also full of the style of actor Harrison Ford. Harrison relied on the "Star Wars ta" series and the "Indiana Jones" series to become the first box office superstar in the real sense of the film's modern history, although he is not the old movie bones such as Jack Nicholson and Al Pacino. He has not won any heavyweight acting awards in his actor career, but this does not prevent him from using his vigorous skill and heroic eyes to attract people willingly to open their wallets and enter the cinema.

In Harrison's career as an actor, "Death of the Dead" is not as well-known as other series of movies, but it is still a very rare work.

Hugo can't remember the specific plot of the movie, but he just remembers the intensive and busy watching the movie. He only vaguely remembers that the story is about a doctor who was believed to have killed his wife, but in fact the murderer was another. There are people. In order to prove his innocence, the doctor chose to escape from prison. The doctor had to face the police chasing all the way, and at the same time, he did not forget to find the real culprit.

When I watched the movie, I felt that it was exceptionally'exquisite', but when I think about it, this is a typical Hollywood hero movie. An ordinary doctor is actually'proficient' in all 18 martial arts, but the'exquisiteness' is more than brilliant. The hole' is obvious. However, the gripping script still makes the movie break away from the ordinary popcorn "flower" movie, which can be regarded as a good work.

After listening to Joseph’s brief explanation, Hugo couldn’t help but curiously asked, “Last time. Seattle stayed up at night and asked me to act as a widower. This is still an explanation; this time. Destiny, want me to audition for the role of “color”. I'm a doctor with a successful career and a happy family. Don't you think I am inappropriate?" Harrison is fifty years old this year. You can imagine how different this role is from Hugo.

Joseph's anxious mood was said by Hugo, he couldn't help but was stunned, "I thought you were unwilling to give up any opportunity. You have to try before you know the result, don't you?"

Hugo nodded, "That's what I said, but there are things that are not worth trying. For example, you asked me to audition now. Home Alone, Macaulay Culkin’s role "color", this Obviously unrealistic."

Never give up anything lightly, this is a kind of belief. But knowing that it is impossible and not knowing how to give up is stupid stubbornness. People have self-knowledge, which contains this meaning. Never giving up is a belief, but it is also very important to do what you can.

Although Joseph was still in a heavy mood, he couldn't help but twitched his lips, "Don't worry, everyone knows that it must be unconvincing. So, if your audition is successful, the story setting will definitely be modified a little."

"It's like. Sleepless in Seattle." Hugo is no stranger to this. Although there has been no news about Sleepless in Seattle at the moment, if Hugo can play, the age and past settings of the male protagonist Sam will definitely change. With a slight modification, it becomes more suitable for the actor's situation. Only in this way can it increase the persuasiveness.

"Yes." Joseph nodded. "I said this to Arnold yesterday. He said that after your audition, if successful, he will discuss it with the screenwriter." After that, Joseph didn't speak any more, he said All the "essence" power was transferred to the driving, and the speed of the car all the way to Universal Pictures.

Hugo couldn't help but grabbed the handle above the window of the passenger seat, his eyes rounded, and he swallowed continuously. Hugo still has a shadow of car accidents. No matter how he felt that the car was about to become a jet plane and took off, Hugo strongly suspected that Joseph was going to get a ticket for speeding. Fortunately, there were no patrol officers on the road, otherwise things would become more complicated.

Even though it was all the way to Universal Studios, the pointer of the watch still pointed to a quarter past ten, and a long time had passed since the appointed time.

"Quick, quick" Joseph said loudly to Hugo before he even had time to stop the car, "Warner Bros. Office Building, fifth floor conference room. Quick, quick" Hugo opened the car's door and ran all the way, Joseph Seeing Hugo's back that quickly disappeared from sight, he hurriedly parked the car, pulled out the key and closed the car's door. After doing this series of actions, he ran over.

Joseph's tonnage is really not suitable for running. He ran this way out of breath and almost felt like he was going to die, but he couldn't take care of it anymore. After checking in at the reception desk on the first floor, he staggered and ran over. Realizing that he had just missed the elevator, he turned his head and looked at the stairs, and Joseph could only step forward reluctantly.

When Joseph climbed to the fifth floor, it was already five minutes later. He saw Hugo standing in the middle of the corridor, breathing heavily with his hands on his hips. Joseph stood at the safety exit and was breathing heavily, otherwise he would all You must suspect that your lungs can burn directly.

Hugo heard the noise behind him, turned his head, and said helplessly, "No one."

"What...what..." Joseph felt that he was about to die, looked at Hugo in amazement, and then realized that he had forgotten to gasp, and he could not help but gasp more quickly.

"No one, the conference room is empty." Hugo is relatively better. Although he is breathing, he looks very ‘spiritual’ and he doesn’t seem to sweat at all. "I asked the secretary and she said that Arnold had left."

"What?" Joseph seemed to have said these words and didn't know what to say. He wanted to take a few steps forward, but found that he was breathing too hard. The sweat was like a waterfall. He couldn't help but leaned on the side. On the wall, "You, you asked the secretary to call Arnold." Joseph kept swallowing saliva and adjusted his breathing. The effect of running some time ago was finally reflected, although he only insisted on it for a week, "If Maybe, you talk to Arnold directly..."

Looking at Joseph's appearance, Hugo couldn't help but said worriedly, "You really should continue to run." Then he turned and walked to the next office, looking for the secretary.

Joseph stood up straight and walked slowly towards the office. When he reached the door, he saw Hugo turning around and shrugging helplessly at him, his eyes open. "Go out and talk about it" meant, and Joseph didn't go in either.

After Hugo came out, he said with a gloomy look, "Arnold told the secretary before he left. After saying that I arrived, he told me that he didn't like people being late because he thought it was one of the basic elements of an actor. "In fact, the secretary's speech has been very tactful. Hugo can imagine that Arnold's speech is probably even worse. "The secretary also said that there is no need to make a phone call, because Arnold prohibits this from happening."

In short: it's over.

Joseph bent down in annoyance, "Oh, God." Although he knew that Anthony's matter had to be dealt with, so it seemed that being late was inevitable, but Joseph was still angry. If he is not so forgetful, at least he can call Arnold to explain beforehand, so that even if there is no chance for an audition, the relationship will not be froze.

When Hugo saw Joseph’s expression, he knew he was in a cycle of regret again, so he patted Joseph on the shoulder, "Hey, man, this matter is over. There is no need to struggle anymore, I think I missed it~www.readwn.com~ Anyway, the role "color" is not suitable for me.

Joseph stood up straight and looked at Hugo speechlessly, "Are you serious?"

"Of course not, just to comfort you." Hugo shrugged, and made Joseph smirk and sneered. Then Hugo said, "I'm forgetful enough. You can't be so forgetful. Take it as a lesson. This time it’s an inappropriate role as a lesson. I hope I won’t miss Indiana Jones next time."

On the contrary, Hugo's straightforwardness caused Joseph to slow down. He looked at Hugo helplessly and wanted to say something, but in the end he shook his head and laughed.

Hugo walked in the direction of the elevator, "So, you don't have any other scripts?"

Joseph also shuffled behind, glanced at the secretary's room reluctantly, made up his mind to return to the car, and took out his mobile phone to call Arnold Copelson. After retracting his gaze, he looked at Hugo, "Are you getting anxious now? You didn't feel nervous at all when you were on vacation before."

"Uh...what to eat at noon?" Hugo's voice disappeared into the elevator along with the sound of two people's footsteps.
