Superstar

Chapter 1138: Preemptive

Hugo certainly knows that Gwyneth Paltrow is the heroine of the "Seven Deadly Sins" and she plays the role of Brad in the movie as the wife. Interestingly, during the filming of the film, Gwyneth was dating Brad, and both of them were lovers in and out of the scene.

However, the love life of the two people was very interesting later, and after the two people broke up, they were both very vigorous.

The first is Brad, he and Jennifer Aniston come together, and then there is the world-famous "little third party", Brad and Angelina-Jolie married and had children. The marriage of the two people was vigorous and vigorous. Under the painstaking efforts of both parties, the negative image was reversed and became the number one husband and wife file in Hollywood.

Then there is Gwyneth. Her princess disease and tough temper are well-known throughout the circle. She first had an excessive combination with Ben Affleck, and then with Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin (. ) Entered the marriage hall, but in the end the marriage ended in a breakup after eleven years. Rumor has it that Gwyneth had an affair.

Hugo looked back and forth between David Geffen and Gwyneth. If he remembered correctly, after the "Seven Deadly Sins" crew determined that David was the director, the first role David identified was not the three main male characters, but the female protagonist, hand-picked by Gwyneth Paltrow Starred.

David's rhetoric was that he admired Gwyneth's performance in "The Ruthless Earth and the Heaven". But if Hugo remembers correctly, the movie’s most provocative were Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid, who were just married at the time. Meg came to the crew of "Sleepless in Seattle" after filming the movie. .

With the pause of the flashing light, Hugo's thoughts were in abundance, and David finally recovered at this time, and some hurriedly took his gaze back from Gwyneth, and looked at Hugo, "What? "Then stunned, "Hey, good evening, I'm David Fincher."

This saves trouble, and his self-introduction confirmed Hugo's guess. Hugo stretched out his right hand and introduced himself, "Hugo."

"Of course, of course, of course I know that you are Hugo." David exclaimed a series of "of course", and you can feel that he is still a little frightened. Then he took a deep breath, took a sip of the champagne in his hand, and then calmed down a little, "So, are you coming here...?"

Obviously, in this private party, David Geffen is an unknown person, and no one cares about his existence.

But Hugo knows that David is the director of "Seven Deadly Sins". David will appear here today, which shows that New Line Film Company is already thinking about the possibility of directing David. After all, there is another "David". David Cronenberg has officially declined their invitation. Maybe it was Cronenberg who recommended Geffen. After all, the styles of the two of them were both cold and terrifying.

"It's hard to buy a daughter." Just as Martin was taking Brad and Gwyneth to cover Cronenberg's words, Hugo was already a step ahead.

"I wanted to say that I really liked the'Alien 3'you shot, but sorry, I can't deceive myself, I don't like that movie. Maybe many people will say that it is because the script is not good enough-of course this It is also an important reason. Some people say that there is a problem with the communication between you and the producer, but I think you can’t shirk your responsibility. The rhythm and atmosphere are a bit out of control, as if...as if you are not sure what to do. The shooting is average." Hugo’s words are very direct, even merciless-this is completely a stranger running up to you and swearing, no one will be happy, David Geffen also There should be no exceptions.

Sure enough, David's face looked a little awkward, and his expression directly stiffened. David is also a director with a very sharp personality. This can be felt from the video style of his works. He will never be stingy to express his views and emotions.

But at the same time, David is also a very professional director. His persistence and focus on his work is very rare, and it can even be said to be harsh-"Social Network" the opening scene of the dialogue, he filmed more than 100 Bar, just to perfectly show the effect in his mind.

Therefore, when Hugo, a stranger who met for the first time, criticized his work mercilessly, David’s most direct emotion was not anger, but curiosity, “First, I don’t want to admit that this is my work...Secondly, Can you feel the mess of the picture?"

After "Alien 3" was released, it almost suffered a lot of infamy. There are countless reasons. Some people say that the script is not good. Some people say that the first two films are too classic. Of course, some people say that the director is too bad. In fact, the main reason was that he had a huge disagreement with the producer during the shooting, so that after the movie was released, David followed the principle of "no interviews, no commentary on the soundtrack, and no director's version."

Of course, David must also bear some responsibilities, and he himself knows this.

Hugo shook his head, "It's not just the picture, it should be said that the picture in your mind and the effect presented by the movie have not reached the same pace..." Hugo is not a professional director, but he is a competent audience. , And is also an excellent actor, now also involved in screenwriting, so his insights are very unique and can always inspire more sparks.

David and Hugo talked for 20 minutes. "Alien 3" is just David’s first work. Although the producer’s intervention makes it difficult for him to start, objectively speaking, he also needs this. Talk to help him progress.

To David's surprise, Hugo has a unique and profound understanding of movies, especially when he understands the script as an actor, David can often be refreshed. This is a crucial part of the director's overall view.

"Wow," David didn't make this exclamation, but sighed deep in his heart. Prior to this, David heard that Steven Spielberg and George Lucas had both admired Hugo, and he felt that he was exaggerating. Because he knows how arrogant George is. He was George's neighbor in 1983 and then got an errand in George's Light and Magic Industry and participated in the production of special effects for "Star Wars".

But now, David has completely changed. Rumors can be deceiving, but the foundation and erudition shown in the conversation cannot be pretended.

"So... you didn't come over to talk to me because of'Alien 3', I confirmed this." David concluded, with a little embarrassment on his face: Hugo criticized his work for being decent. , Even if he is not the main reason, but shyness and embarrassment are still inevitable.

Hugo chuckled lightly, "I am friends with Michael Jackson. He mentioned you to me. You followed him around the world for nearly a month to take a video of the concert, didn't you? You are at work. The rigor of the work left a deep impression on him."

Hugo is just talking about it. Although he and Michael are friends, they haven't had a personal relationship to this level. The two have never mentioned David Fincher. But Hugo can only find this reason, which is also the best reason—a reason that David could not confirm.

Sure enough, David didn't have any doubts, and he nodded and smiled, "Of course, I must be rigorous at work. I am not a person with outstanding talent. If I don't work hard, how can I do a good job?"

Hugo doesn’t know whether David is humble or self-aware, but in Hugo’s view, David’s most pinnacle works are "Fight Club" and "Social Network". The former was in 1999 and the latter was in 2010. It can be seen here that although David's style has not made a decisive breakthrough-the styles of the two works are essentially the same, but his talent is absolutely unquestionable, and he is still an excellent director.

Hugo looked back at the crowd in the hall. It was true that there were not many people tonight. There were only more than 20 people in the room. The room still seemed very empty. It was indeed a private party, and there were familiar faces when walking around. Hugo noticed the appearance of Al Pacino. Just now Tom Cruise said that Al was the first candidate for the old policeman in the movie.

Hugo thought for a while, and did not rush forward to say hello, but continued to say to David, "So, are you coming tonight, are you going to take over this work?"

"This work?" David's thoughts were still immersed in the discussion of "Alien 3" just now, he was stunned, but he immediately reacted, asking and answering himself, "You mean the'seven deadly sins', yes, Ji'an Nee asked me to come and take a look. He is considering whether I am suitable for this work. At the same time, he also asked me to get in touch with the actors and crew to see if I have specific ideas about the work."

Gianni Nunali (.), the producer of the "Seven Deadly Sins", Rick told Hugo before that Gianni and Martin Scorsese had a close personal relationship.

"What about you?" David asked when he looked at Hugo, but before Hugo could answer, he asked and answered himself-this style can be felt in his future movies, fast and sharp, although it is Talking, but the whole rhythm is very fast, "Looking at my memory, you must have come for the main role. Of course, you are Hugo Lancaster..." David nodded seriously.

Hugo did not refute ~www.readwn.com~ but followed the topic and said, "Have you read this script?"

"I've seen it. That's why I am willing to be here today." David smiled self-deprecatingly after he finished speaking. "In fact, after the shooting of'Alien 3', I have been on vacation. It can be said to be unemployed." David smiled self-deprecatingly, "I have been reflecting on the reasons for the failure of the film."

No wonder David was so excited when Hugo talked with David just now.

"Then my agent gave me this script. This is the first script I have seen in the past eighteen months, but it is also my most exciting script. So, I am here." David After a pause, he looked Hugo up and down, "But... as far as I know, this script doesn't seem to be a big investment, and it doesn't seem to be right for you..."

David’s tone was also a little uncertain, Hugo raised his eyebrows slightly, “As a director, you have so arbitrarily drawn conclusions to the actors. It is your regret and of course my shortcomings.” Hugo’s words made Da Da. Wei laughed awkwardly, "I like this script very much. I have read it three times over and over again. I don't think my understanding of the script will be inferior to others."

David's eyes lit up, and he looked at Hugo with interest.
