Reborn Hollywood Ladies

Chapter 50 Sad and Ridiculous

"The Blair Witch, a pathetic farce.

I've heard so much about The Blair Witch since it came out.You can see it as long as you open your eyes, and you can discuss it when you turn on the TV. Even when you close your eyes, the broadcast is full of the voices of their actors being interviewed.

I had doubts about this film before. Why did it get so many people's attention, and why did it repeatedly fool the world and lure the audience into the theater?
In my opinion, this is a farce.

The director wants to show the truth in a way that makes people dizzy, and also arranges many things in the film.Be it the interview at the beginning, the weird whispers in the dense forest afterwards, or the mysterious stone pile, the director hopes to use these things to truly show the image of a witch.

But what is the result?Apart from the chatter and screams of the three actors, I don't see anything worth watching at all.

The film strives to create a terrifying atmosphere. In the end, the actors get lost in the dense forest and cannot escape, and even kill them one by one.Maybe the so-called genius director thinks that dead people are scary, but I want to tell her that's not true!
Are there no classic horror movies?Take a look at "The Silence of the Lambs", it is a masterpiece for everyone to think about, not a so-called "true documentary" that thinks that a few people will die and the audience will buy it.

The witch tricked the audience into the theater with false information, and told a sad and ridiculous story in a clumsy way. For this, I feel deeply sad for the audience who were deceived and created 3 million box office.Their kindness created this miraculous farce. I also know that similar movies will emerge one after another in the near future, because they can make money.

If anything, the movie really creates something, it's that it brings three promising actors to the fore.Perhaps this is the only thing it creates. "

Lila was speaking to the cast when Cooper's comments were brought by Demi.In this scene, the male protagonist Lawrence and Adam introduce each other in the abandoned bathroom, trying to find a way to get out of here.

In this segment, Roy's Adam picks up the cue and reaches into a toilet filled with filthy excrement, only to find a saw in the back tank.The two wanted to cut off the iron chains on their bodies with a saw, but the raw saw could not do this at all.After trying a few times, Lawrence finally discovered the real purpose of the saw. The saw was not used to allow them to saw off chains, but to allow them to saw off legs.

"Your expression needs to be more obvious. Think of those in the toilet as real excrement, not these props." Laila's words made Roy's expression twist, and the people around laughed together when they saw this. heap.

"Don't talk about it, I didn't feel so disgusted at first, I was about to throw up when you told me!" He made a vomiting expression.Although the one in the toilet is a prop, it just looks like it but has no smell, but because it is too similar, it is disgusting enough.It's not that he doesn't want to show a more disgusting look, the main reason is that he still has too little experience and doesn't know how far he should go.

During this filming, apart from knowing that Lila is really a film director, and that "The Blair Witch", which almost everyone knows now, is her first work, he also found that he is really suitable to be an actor.

No matter what expression or movement, as long as the director says it, he can put it out.He didn't pay attention to this kind of thing that he practiced on the streets before, until now he realized that it turned out to be such a great thing that could make money.

"It's right to feel sick! You should express your true mood at the moment. Also, remember to express your depressed expression when you find the saw from the water tank."

"Understood." Roy nodded, glanced at the disgusting toilet, and under Laila's order to shoot, he put on a bitter face and resigned himself to the pile of "excrement".

He acted so real that even Lyra couldn't help a silent laugh.

These two days of filming made her very satisfied with her choice, and she didn't even think that Roy could really show such superb acting skills.He doesn't look like a rookie who has just entered the industry at all, and his facial expressions are better than some experienced actors.

The only regret is that he still has too little experience, and there is still a gap between his understanding of the role and a real actor.But she believes that as long as he makes a few more movies in the future to accumulate experience, this guy will definitely become a very good star.

"CUT! This one's over. Roy, you're doing well. Now rest for two hours." Laila announced with a smile that it was lunch time.

Demi stepped forward and handed a stack of newspaper clippings to Laila.

"Is that person dishonest again?" Laila opened the clipping, and sure enough, she saw Cooper's article on the first page.

Demi observed her expression carefully, and was relieved when she felt that she was not angry.

"I don't think anyone will believe his words. Many film critics are very optimistic about our film. You can see the following ones."

Worried that the boss would be in a bad mood because of being smeared, Demi carefully collected many positive comments about witches from the media.

This kind of carefulness made Laila feel a little funny, who said that the blonde beauty has big breasts and no brains, isn't she also very brainy?In many cases, being a secretary is not enough to just complete the assigned work. How to make the boss happy and how to help the boss relax are also urgent tasks that need to be dealt with.

It created a new way of shooting. --"New York Times"

In the past, we studied how to hide the camera and let the footage pile up a story as real as possible.The Blair Witch told us that what they filmed was a true story. —— "Variety Show"

A DV can shoot a movie, will the movie be closer to us in the future? -- "Los Angeles Times"

She exchanged 10 for [-] million, she created a miracle, she is a genius director, she is the only one! ——"Entertainment Daily"

Demi found reports from many big and small media. If Leila hadn't specifically told her to tell her whenever there was any movement from Cooper's side, she actually didn't want her boss to see what Cooper wrote.

She felt that if it was her who made such a great movie but was smeared into a mess, she probably wanted to kill someone.Not to mention that the boss is still a young lady from a wealthy family, how can she stand this kind of anger?
But to her surprise, Lila was not angry when she saw Cooper's comment, she even patted the arm of the chair and couldn't straighten up laughing.

Is there anything ridiculous there?Or did I miss something?Demi was confused.
