Heads Up Hollywood

On September 28th, a wave of new film releases finally ushered in.

However, due to the impact of the terrorist attack, all the films gave up the high-profile and luxurious premiere, and also gave up the early screening, and went online silently.

Among them, "A Beautiful Mind" was filmed by Tang En himself.

Maybe it was because he made a crazy fortune in the stock market some time ago. Tang En's mind was a little flustered, and there was always a thought in his mind: the super rich worth tens of billions of dollars is still working on the front line of movies, will it be possible? Would it be too shameful? Shouldn't he stay behind the scenes and be a big boss who guides the country?

So much so that Twain was a little absent-minded about the release of "A Beautiful Mind".

But Universal Pictures is different. It is their job to promote and distribute "A Beautiful Mind".

Although there was no premiere, Universal Pictures still booked a movie theater at an AMC theater in Hollywood, and invited the film's leading actors and some guests to launch a small-scale viewing event.

It is mainly because of some contacts in Hollywood, as well as inviting some film critics to watch the film and comment on it. After all, this is an award-winning film.

As a film director, Tang En has no reason to refuse.

However, unlike the previous high-profile appearances, this time Tang En walked through the side door of the theater and appeared quietly without causing the slightest sensation.

The current Tang En has completely passed the stage of needing exposure to attract attention and gain attention.

Excessive exposure and high-profile appearances will give the public a flamboyant and impetuous impression.

In the background, Tang En greeted the leading actor Russell Crowe first, and then patted Nicole Kidman on the shoulder with a smile, "I heard that your performance in "The Hours" was very good, even Meryl Streep praised your performance."

Nicole Kidman raised the corners of her mouth, her pupils glowing faintly, "Thank you."

Tang En leaned over and lowered his voice, "Act well, I've already said hello to Catherine. In terms of film production and post-editing, I will center around you. At that time, there will be Meryl Street Pu and Julian Moore will be green leaves for you, it's hard not to win an award!"

The core of a movie is editing, which is the key to showing the actors' acting skills.

For example, many award-winning films later, such as "The King's Speech", "Darkest Hour", "The Theory of Everything", "The Iron Lady", etc., were all edited at the expense of the plot and the macro art of the wide-angle lens. The way of close-ups, large-scale close-ups highlighting the actors' looks, to show the powerful acting skills of the actors.

A more famous example is Heath Ledger.

A "Batman: The Dark Knight" made Heath Ledger fans all over the world, and the clown he played has become an incomparable classic villain image in the hearts of movie fans all over the world.

However, behind all of this, thanks to the director of the film-Christopher Nolan.

It's a Batman movie, and in the original movie, the cut, of course, focuses on Christian Bale's Batman.

But then there was an accident, Heath Ledger passed away, Nolan started working on the front line, and re-edited "Batman: The Dark Knight". This time, he made "Joker" the protagonist of the movie!

Not only that, but many shots in the movie are not in line with the mainstream expression of commercial films. A lot of frontal close-up shots are taken of the terrible villain "Joker", but "Batman" is shown with a long shot, giving many unknowns. Fans of the truth have the illusion that Christian Bale's acting skills were instantly killed by Heath Ledger.

Is it really?

Heath Ledger's acting skills are unparalleled, but Christian Bale is not bad either!

There is only one reason for this result - editing!

Meryl Streep will become an Oscar "cancer", and she looks like whatever she plays, because the movies she participates in must use her acting skills as the core to edit the plot.

Nicole Kidman glanced at him, full of embarrassment, with a half-smile, "Will this... be too bad?"

Tang En gave her a white look and shrugged, "That's good, I'll let them do the post-production fairly."

Of course Nicole Kidman didn't believe it, she pursed her lips with a coquettish smile, "By the way, I'm interested in your movie."

"What?"

"Your book is adapted, "Gone Girl." Nicole Kidman blurted out slowly in a slightly aggressive tone, "Can I be the heroine?"

Tang En couldn't help laughing, "Nicole, aren't you too greedy? The filming of "The Hours" hasn't finished yet!"

Nicole Kidman frowned slightly, "Do you have someone you like?"

"No, I haven't been thinking about movies at all lately."

"That's good, don't forget!"

"talk later!"

Tang En saw Lang Meyer in the distance, he casually said something, and then walked up with a smile, "I haven't thanked you for what happened last time."

Last time, Tang En asked Lon Meyer to help him replace the director of "Red Dragon", Brett Ratner.

Although the filming started in three weeks and it was at the last moment before the filming began, Ron Meyer still accepted Twain's request and fired Brett Ratner.

And according to Tang En's suggestion, Jonathan Demme, the director of "The Silence of the Lambs", was replaced.

Jonathan Demme has had a hard time recently. He was originally a third-rate director in Hollywood. He became popular with "The Silence of the Lambs", but his career soon fell back.

Last year, he helped Twain as a judge at the Cannes Film Festival. This time, Twain reciprocated.

Lon Meyer waved his hand, "My business is easy, but your business... Dun En, you made a big deal this time!"

If Brett Ratner dared to say such humiliating words, Dunn would not let him off lightly!

Taking the title of director of "Red Dragon" is only the first step. Twain has joined forces with Michael Ovitz of Legendary Films and sent a message to many Hollywood giants. All film projects that participate in the platter investment will not be accepted. Brett Ratner to direct!

To ban a second- and third-tier director, Tang En now has this strength!

It was too difficult to get rid of Tom Cruise's leading role in "Minority Report". Tang En used the "Contract Stealing" skill of the sunglasses system, but what was Brett Ratner? Can he compare to Tom Cruise?

Even at the peak of his career, he wasn't at Tom Cruise's level.

With a cold face, Tang En said in a serious voice: "Some people, after making a small achievement, lose their awe. If you don't give him a deep lesson, he will think that Hollywood is just playing tricks!"

Ron Meyer almost didn't laugh when he heard that.

What Tang En said was exactly the same as what the bigwigs in the industry had said about him a few years ago!

Disney banned Twain Films, Twain banned Brett Ratner, what's the difference?

It really is the position that determines the thinking.

Now that Tang En has become a big boss, the attitude of suppressing Brett Ratner, a 32-year-old "young" director, is very similar to last year's Disney.

Of course, there are differences.

Under Disney's strong blockade, Tang En was able to fight a bloody path with one knife and one gun, fight out bloody, and win a piece of the sky.

But can Brett Ratner?

Relying on a "Rush Hour" series?

After thinking for a moment, Ron Meyer lowered his voice and said slowly: "Whether it's Warner or Fox, they will definitely save face, including Paramount and MGM. The biggest problem is New Line Pictures. Although this company belongs to Warner Bros., but operates independently, and "Rush Hour" is a sharp weapon to attract money, at this time...they probably won't stop."

"New line?" Dunn raised his eyelids, expressionless, "I'll call Bob Shea later to see what his attitude is. If he can't make up his mind, hum, then I'll help him make up his mind." determination!"

...

"A Beautiful Mind" is Tang En's fifth film directed by himself. In the first four films, he earned 4.74 billion US dollars in a crazy way worldwide.

In the fifth film, major changes have taken place, this is a literary film.

At least on the surface.

In a soothing rhythm, the screen of the movie finally opened.

Nicole Kidman's performance is very brilliant, the first meeting in the classroom, the young woman's self-esteem and admiration are vividly expressed.

When the hero and heroine are on their first date, the scene where she folds the handkerchief and stuffs it in the chest pocket of his suit is full of scheming and caring. And the movements of sticking together and gesturing to the stars together show a bit of romance that the science men have premeditated.

Everything will fall into place.

After getting married, "Nash"'s schizophrenia developed under pressure and began to affect normal life. "Alicia" raised the child by herself, and had to endure "Nash"'s unstable condition, and her life was not comfortable.

She is no longer the girl with fantasies before marriage, but she is still dignified and elegant, and she is still radiant when she smiles, adding a kind of accumulation of time.

In this soothing and melancholy atmosphere, the movie gradually reaches its climax.

As "Nash" became increasingly ill, he imagined three non-existent characters—a roommate, an agent, and a little girl.

The three people have been entangled around "Nash", making him crazy, making him desperate, and making him completely plunged into a person's spiritual world.

Fortunately, there is also the heroine "Alicia".

Alicia has been silently accompanying him, helping him overcome difficulties one after another, allowing him to gradually accept himself, recognize the reality, and accept the ordinary.

There are often many unsatisfactory things in life? Such as family, appearance, background, fate... All kinds of objective factors can easily cause a person to cause various psychological obstacles.

There is only one easiest way - to accept reality and embrace the world.

Nash did it.

He came out of his own world, he received the Nobel Prize.

Back in college, he still has roommates, secret agents, and little girls by his side.

But so what?

Nash has let go of his psychological burden, as if love and marriage had been blazing with burning flames, but with the passage of time, everything seems to flow like water.

Nash is no longer manic, no longer crazy, no rush to make these virtual characters disappear, they are there.

He just admired it silently, even with a slightly playful smile, silently appreciating, like a fond memory of the most passionate love——

Nash: "You don't exist, you are a character I imagined."

Little girl: "Why?"

Nash: "Because you haven't changed at all during the ten years you've been by my side."

As soon as the words fell, all the guests in the screening hall burst into tears.

What hasn't changed, isn't it just the appearance of that little girl?

Just like Nash's acceptance speech when receiving the Nobel Prize.

"My quest has taken me full circle in the metaphysical, metaphysical, and hallucinatory worlds—and back. I've had the most important breakthrough of my career; I've found the most important thing in my life. Man, made the most important discovery: It is only in the mysterious equation of love that any form of logical reason can be found. I am here tonight because of you, and you are the reason I exist, Alicia, You are my everything..."
