Resurrection of 683 contacts first appeared

Last time, the "New York Times" was furious about Hugo's choice of "Pulp Fiction" and severely reprimanded it as a "stupid choice." Different looks.

The "New York Times" reported under the headline "Distinctive Choices Reflect Lancaster's Unique Eyes", which is a 180-degree turn from the previous report on "Pulp Fiction".

In the comments, "The New York Times" chief film critic Almond Camby said, "The speed of life and death is not a work that will make people exclaim the "perfect choice", whether it is the production team or the investment cost. , This work can’t find too many highlights for people to express their expectations, but maybe this is the uniqueness of Lancaster. He is keenly aware of the innovation and speciality of the script, which is also an ability that many actors do not have. .

A bus that explodes at speeds less than fifty miles an hour is driving in Los Angeles, a city that may be in a panic due to traffic jams at any time. How will the story develop? Is it the hero who came out to save the city or did it fall short? The great disaster of the city.

Lancaster clearly and accurately selected a work that suits him best. Maybe he doesn't have Schwarzenegger's strong body or Bruce-Lee's vigorous skills, so he can't be like a traditional action movie. The male protagonist usually gives people the **** thrill of punching to the flesh, but the focused, fortitude, and fierce temperament in him can burst infinite sparks with the'speed of life and death', which makes the action movie produce a fresh breath that is not necessarily true. This is undoubtedly It is an exciting work. "

It’s hard to imagine that the critic who wrote this review and the critic who scolded when Hugo confirmed his role in "Pulp Fiction" two months ago are actually the same person, Almond, the current "New York The leading film critic of The Times made a gorgeous turn in two months.

It can be seen that Almond has found the only loophole in the overwhelming voice of doubt-script innovation, and then based on this point, he expressed support for Hugo's choice. Almond wisely avoided all the unfavorable situations of the "speed of life and death". He just used the script to grasp the core and then combined the temperament of Hugo. It must be said that this is a very clever approach. This is for the "New York Times". From a broad mass base, it is undoubtedly a huge attraction.

But why did the attitude of the "New York Times" change so drastically within two months?

In fact, if you carefully review the attitude of the "New York Times" before, you can find that they have been harsh on Hugo's works for a long time in the past.

Although the "New York Times" is one of the most authoritative film review media in the United States, their reviews of films are generally relatively objective, but because of the dispute between the American East Coast and West Coast cultural circles, the "Los Angeles Times" There are also many differences between the two newspapers and the "New York Times" in their views on works.

The "New York Times" has always been more demanding and critical in its previous comments on "Smell the Fragrance and Know Women" and "Yihai Xiongfeng". Compared with the "Los Angeles Times" fully supported attitude, the "New York Times" His views have always been more reserved, and there is also a harsh one, especially when compared with the three Hollywood industry benchmark media, the Los Angeles Times, Variety Show, and The Hollywood Reporter, the New York Times is always on the more demanding side.

However, everything changed after "Schindler's List". It is worth noting that the New York Times strongly praised Hugo's work for the first time. It was "Sleepless in Seattle" and it was "Sinder". What happened after Le’s list" was finalized; and the news that Almond later criticized Hugo for choosing "Pulp Fiction" in the "New York Times" was about the "beautification of the Nazis" controversy at a peak period; but now, all the controversy It has all subsided, and "Schindler's List" has the support of all Jews. This is the difference. When discussing the political tendencies of any media, it is inseparable from their origin, consortium, cultural background, geographical situation, etc. Of course, in the political field, interest is the eternal core criterion, and all groups participating in politics are based on Striving for self-interest is the ultimate goal.

The "New York Times" was founded by two non-Jews in 1851. After their deaths, the Jewish tycoon Adolf Oaks (.) bought the newspaper in 1896, and his grandson Arthur Oaks Sulzber Grid (arthur.. sulzberger, jr.) inherited the "New York Times". Under the leadership of four generations, the "New York Times" became the number one newspaper in the United States, and it also has a unique influence in the world. The New York Times provides press releases and pictures to 506 other media across the United States, and is the undoubtedly number one news media in the United States.

In addition to the distinctive Jewish ancestry of the leader and the consortium behind it, the current executive editor of the "New York Times" Max Frankel (max.franke1) and the editor-in-chief Joseph Lelyveld (.lelyveld) are also Jewish.

There is no doubt that the Jewish ancestry of the "New York Times" allowed them to stand firmly on the side of their compatriots in political orientation. Now, Steven Spielberg’s "Schindler's List" has been Jews all over the world have reached a peak, and the "New York Times" is no exception. The humanistic care shown in this movie is the greatest comfort and inspiration for the survivors after the Holocaust.

Although it is said that Hugo played the murderous Amon-Goss in the movie, after understanding, everyone knows Hugo's efforts to play this role, and even became too deep in the movie to fall into the movie. A deep nightmare, this is the fundamental reason why Hugo did not take any works for seven months after ending the "Schindler's List".

At this moment, Hugo has won the hearts of all Jews. After Steven Spielberg and Woody Allen, he has become an important role in the Jewish community in Hollywood, the "New York Times". The change of attitude has also been the most reasonable explanation.

Opportunity in Hollywood is the most important, but more valuable than opportunity is the network. In many cases, the strength of the network is the decisive ability to turn the tide of the battle. This is also when Steven was preparing to shoot "Schindler's List", everyone thought this work. Under the circumstance of smashing the pot, but still unwilling to give up the reason lightly. Because "Schindler's List" maintains Steven's connections, and it is the entire Jewish community hidden behind the true story of this history.

Tracy-Jacobs, Lang-Mayer, Martin-Baum will join the crew of "Schindler's List" at all costs. They have taken a fancy to the vast network of contacts in this work, and they have a fatal absolute. energy.

And now, Hugo has become a member of "Schindler's List". What's more important is that the entire "Schindler's List" is a huge crew of nearly a thousand people. Just talking about the protagonist, Yu Guo must also lag behind Liam Nissen and Ben Kingsley, but Hugo relied on his dedicated performance attitude and superb performance to stand out from the crew and won Steven’s favor and at the same time. Jewish support.

The role of contacts is usually difficult to summarize with a simple data or icon, and more often it is hidden under the surface of complex things, making people unpredictable. For example, there are still many people who don't know how Hugo and Steven got in touch. The greatest hero, Green Hill, who lies behind him, has never been exposed by relying on the powerful strength behind him.

Now, the network resources that Hugo won through "Schindler's List" are quietly playing a role, and the "New York Times" is just one of them.

The other two media in the top ten sales in the United States, the Washington Post and the Wall Street Journal, also have Jewish ancestry. The "Washington Post" is now run by the Jewish Catherine Mayer Graham (.graham), the owner of the "Wall Street Journal" Dow Jones Group () CEO Peter Kang (peter.kann) is also Jewish, he at the same time Also serves as the director of The Wall Street Journal.

Although these two newspapers are not professional film magazines, and the entertainment section is only a part of them, they have always been regarded as the ranks of the industry's authoritative media due to their huge sales.

The "Washington Post" reported with relatively neutral remarks, "Hugo-Lancaster's new hot action movie selected!" They did not conduct much analysis on the "speed of life" itself, but focused more on it. For Hugo, it is undoubtedly something eye-catching and anticipated that Hugo once again challenged action movies in three years.

"The Wall Street Journal" used a very interesting news headline to report~www.readwn.com~ Lancaster said no to the check!" The views in the report are also very interesting. They believe that the cost has generally increased throughout Hollywood. , Actors' pay continues to rise, and the role of agency companies in the film industry is gradually increasing. Hugo has the courage to break the industry rules and return to the situation before the 1990s: actors with less than 10 million pay to help film companies control together Cost, and conscientious completion of the work, this is undoubtedly a huge breakthrough. They also believe that Hugo's move is actually more popular with film companies. After all, an actor with good quality and low price is liked by everyone, not to mention, Hugo’s popularity and recognition are also the top picks, so the major film companies’ pursuit of Hugo in the future is bound to go into fierce heat, but the pay cannot impress Hugo, so what is it?

Compared with the situation in the "Pulp Fiction" period, which is almost a questionable situation, this time the "Los Angeles Times" has won a group of reliable and powerful allies, which has won a broader breathing room for the more difficult "speed of life and death". This is undoubtedly what no one expected.

Nicholas was keenly aware of this. The power of the Jewish connections has gradually emerged. This is undoubtedly the decisive turning point in Hugo's career!
