In Hollywood, it is not very common for stars who dislike each other to confront the media directly, and it is not unique, but if they can’t say something that can stand the test, they can only be reduced to themselves. [The Gate of Mysterious Realm]【No pop-up window..】

Robert Downey Jr. usually has a lot of out-of-the-ordinary words, so of course he won't just talk about it at this time.

"In the nineties, I worked with Natalie's daughter, Natasha Gregson Wagner, on a film called Two Women and One Man, and I learned something about how Kirk Douglas treated Natalie- Wood thing."

Now Robert Downey Jr. is completely in the tone of a accuser, "Natalie Wood was once raped by Kirk Douglas and abused crazily..."

Jonah Hill, who was standing outside the reporter circle, shrugged helplessly at Murphy. Murphy shook his head lightly. Robert Downey Jr. had held his breath in his chest for too long, so why not let him vent? Row?

Although he, Jonah Hill, James Franco, and Seth Rogen are not in favor of Robert Downey Jr. exposing this old story to the media, because it will not cause too much practical harm to Kirk Douglas. Influenced, but not stopped, because Robert Downey Jr. needs a channel to vent his anger.

Afterwards, Robert Downey Jr. succinctly mentioned a disgraceful past between Kirk Douglas and Natalie Wood. Murphy had also heard Robert Downey Jr. talk about these things carefully before.

In the 1950s, there was a rumor in Hollywood that "Natalie Wood would do anything to get a movie role." Natalie? ” and “The Ghost and the Widow,” a rumor that started when Natalie Wood wanted a role as a rebellious teenage girl in a movie and ended up having something to do with the movie’s married director, the fabled The movie is called "Resist Without a Cause". [Fights Break the Sphere]

Of course, this is a rumor, and the truth is unknown, but it was not that simple in the eyes of Kirk Douglas at the time.

The next day, Kirk Douglas invited Natalie Wood to the hotel to discuss film auditions. At that time, Natalie Wood was popular, and Kirk Douglas opposite was a top figure in Hollywood who had the right to speak .

Natalie Wood, who was on the rise in her career, accepted the invitation.

After she came to the room, Kirk Douglas, who was already drunk, did not discuss any topics related to the movie, but immediately began to tear Natalie Wood's clothes. Natalie Wood declined and said that she had something to go first. But Kirk Douglas stopped her forcibly, and began to push and abuse, which eventually turned into a violent beating. During the beating, she forcibly took off Natalie Wood's clothes.

Well, in the words of Robert Downey Jr., listeners like Murphy can give full play to their imaginations.

In addition, Kirk Douglas forced Natalie Wood to drink his saliva, as for other s.m behaviors, there is no need to elaborate, and he threatened not to tell what happened today, and this matter will be discussed later. It was repeated many times in more than a month, and this experience left an eternal scar in Natalie Wood's heart.

What's even more surprising is that Natalie Wood's mother not only didn't get angry after returning home, but instead blamed her for making Kirk Douglas unhappy, so she would ruin her acting career. In Hollywood at the time, Kirk- How prominent is Douglas' status, so powerful that he can fire Anthony Mann with one sentence and invite Stanley Kubrick, who dare not refuse.

The so-called golden age of Hollywood that is missed by the old men in the academy is far more chaotic than it is now. Things like Kirk Douglas are not too rare, but it will definitely cause a lot of negativity when placed on an old actor with a high reputation. influences. [Indestructible Dragon Emperor]

But counting on such old events to have a huge impact on Kirk Douglas,

That's also impossible.

As Murphy and Jonah Hill thought, this was purely Robert Downey Jr. venting his anger.

During this day, a series of incidents happened. If it happened, the media reporters needed time to sort out the reports. The news on Cameron Douglas has not been widely spread yet.

For example, Kirk Douglas, who seems to be old and thinks that his glory has not diminished, has not received news of his precious grandson's accident for the time being.

He asked Sid Ganesh, who had been his mentor, to come to his house to enjoy afternoon tea together.

"But I haven't seen you for a year..."

In the garden of the mansion, Kirk Douglas personally poured a cup of black tea for a white-haired old man sitting next to him, "I didn't expect you to have white hair, too, and you're old too."

Sid Ganes took a sip from his teacup, "I'm almost seventy years old."

Kirk Douglas laughed and talked about the past with Sid Ganesh. The atmosphere in the garden was very good, as if two old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time were reminiscing about the past.

Sid Ganesh has an unusual status in Hollywood compared to Kirk Douglas, who is almost completely retired. He is the current chairman of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

Sid Ganesh's real career in Hollywood is a producer. He once served as the chairman of Paramount Pictures and Columbia Pictures, and has also been a senior executive of the academy, responsible for public relations and marketing. And the members of the board of directors of DC comics, in the academy, apart from the chairman of the executive committee, he is also the head of the academy's Visual Effects Technology Society.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a super boss at the core of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

"We're all getting old!" Some of Kirk Douglas' ideas can't be realized by his own hands at all, and he can only rely on the relationship he formed in the past. "It's not good to refuse to accept the old, now it's the world of young people."

Although they are both Jewish, Sid Ganes knows exactly what kind of person Kirk Douglas is. The other party is definitely not looking for him for tea and reminiscing about the old days.

He smiled and responded, "Yes, the young people nowadays are more remarkable than each other."

"Well, that's true." Kirk Douglas gradually turned the topic to the side he wanted, "Last year, a young director who was only in his twenties actually won the third place in the global box office list. It was unimaginable at that time."

"You're talking about Murphy Stanton, right?" Sid Ganes can naturally guess who Kirk Douglas is referring to. Murphy Stanton is the only one in Hollywood and even the world's film industry. The young director is so outstanding, "He did a really good job."

Speaking of Murphy Stanton, Sid Ganes said with emotion, "It is very rare for him to shoot with such depth and thickness for an ordinary commercial and comic theme."

Today, when the homogenization of commercial films is becoming more and more serious, Hollywood needs this kind of director who is different, has his own unique style, and whose works can be widely disseminated.

The appreciation for him within the academy is no less than that of Quentin Tarantino, and even more respected.

Today's Hollywood, not to mention commercial films, even the films that participate in the Oscar competition, are gradually becoming stereotyped. As the chairman of the academy's executive committee, Sid Ganesh certainly knows that if things go on like this, the influence of Hollywood as a whole is bound to weaken .

Movies that are too commercial and focus on visual effects have no connotation, just a bunch of beautiful digital codes; movies that focus on connotation and art can only be spread in a small range, which does not match the global influence of Hollywood, and can hardly be seen by the public. spread……

Murphy-Stanton has used the past few films to fully prove that he can combine the two almost perfectly to create a unique and evocative mass movie.

This kind of movie may not be the choice of Oscar, but it is urgently needed by Hollywood!

Like other members of the academy who supported Murphy Stanton, Sid Ganes admired the young director because of his position.

"Murphy Stanton's style is very unique, and I also like his films." Kirk Douglas took a sip of tea first, put down his cup, and said slowly, "But he is not our own."

Sid Ganes turned to look at him, seemingly not understanding what Kirk Douglas was saying.

Kirk Douglas said, without lifting an eyelid, "As far as I know, he is a racist who discriminates against us Jews!"

In the era when he dominated Hollywood, if he said that someone discriminated against the Jews, then the other person must be discriminating against the Jews. His development in the Hollywood circle was bound to be subject to many restrictions, especially on the Oscars...

Although the age is different, Kirk Douglas believes that his words still carry a lot of weight.

Whether Murphy Stanton is a racist or not, Sid Ganis doesn't care at all, who cares about the life and death of those black guys, if it is not to show fairness and justice, and to win and give, a white judge occupies more than 100% Ninety percent of the awards will allow black people to win awards?

As for Murphy Stanton's discrimination against Jews, this is simply the funniest joke he has ever heard.

"Kirk, do you know Murphy Stanton?" Sid Ganes asked calmly, without showing the disdain in his heart, "Aren't you joking just now?"

Kirk Douglas tensed his old face. "Do I think I'm going to joke about this?"

Hearing the questioning words, Sid Ganis frowned slightly. How many years have passed, and Kirk Douglas is still bossing him around?

Being in a different position will naturally have a different mentality. Sid Ganesh is no longer the little guy who needed to be promoted back then. Now he is the chairman of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences! (To be continued.)
