The fifth part of Chapter 07 "Chicago" was released
On March 10, at the entrance of the Huaxia Theater in Hollywood, the red carpet was paved, reporters gathered, and the voices were boiling.
Sophia's first film "Chicago" will premiere here.
As Coppola's daughter, Sophia became the object of media attention as soon as she was born, and her every move was a topic of discussion, and she was born to belong to Hollywood.
But as Coppola's daughter, Sophia also has to bear the pressure brought by this surname when she enjoys the dividends brought by the surname Coppola, and it is as it should be to do well, because as Coppola's daughter, she must be so good, and if she does not do well, she will be pointed at because she has tarnished the surname Coppola. If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.
Just like tonight, everyone will pay attention to "Chicago", because this is a movie led by the daughter of the great director Coppola, so tonight's Huaxia Theater will definitely be the focus of attention and the whole of Los Angeles.
At seven o'clock in the evening, a group of big names came to the platform, including both big directors and celebrities, both the bosses of film companies and the heads of various film unions, Sophia's first film was released, Coppola, a father, naturally wanted to launch a relationship to support his daughter, ICM, New Line Film Company also had to help their artists and film promotion, so half of Hollywood's film industry came, and even John, an otaku, specially flew from New York to Los Angeles to support.
"It's great to see you here!"
Sophia saw John appear in the theater and smiled and hugged John.
"I will definitely support the release of your movie. β
"Thank you. β
"When the movie is released, the director's job is over, give yourself a vacation, find a place to travel, and when we come back, we will discuss the next film. β
Sophia is a person who cares a lot about other people's opinions, and when the media critics and fans criticized her for nothing, she directly quit the entertainment industry and ran to the fashion circle.
"Do you have a script?" Sophia's eyes lit up when she heard the script, being a director is as addictive as smoking hawt.
"Not yet, but I've asked Nancy to buy the copyright, but I haven't had time to adapt it yet, it is estimated that it will be adapted in the first half of next year, and filming will start in the second half of the year, and you have a year to rest. β
"I'll be rusty after a year and a half off. β
"A director who can produce a movie in two years is already very prolific, and if you are bored, then help me make a season of "Friends". β
"Yes!"
Although Sophia filmed "Chicago", she was still technically immature, and without Coppola's help, "Chicago" would be difficult to film, and she needed a lot of practice to improve her skills, so she didn't mind filming a TV series.
At eight o'clock in the evening, "Chicago" kicked off with the opening credits of the new line, and the 2,200 seats were filled.
Although "Chicago" is a song and dance film, the director is Coppola's daughter, the producer is Coppola and John, the screenwriter is John, the actress is Winona Ryder, the hottest flower in North America, and Penelope Cruz, who has just come to Hollywood to develop, and the actor is the male god Al Pacino, and Christian Bale.
Four actors with both strength and appearance plus the escort of today's two super directors, if such a film is not concerned, then what other film can pull the otaku girl out of the house?
At the beginning of the film, Winona Ryder conquered everyone with a dance, Winona Ryder herself was born in a stage play, dancing was a piece of cake for her, coupled with Lee Smith's superb editing skills, her beautiful body language and charming face with a hint of cynicism were perfectly docked, bringing a visual impact to everyone.
As for the other actress Lope Cruz, not to mention, this Latin beauty from Spain is born in dancing herself, coupled with superb acting skills, it is only suitable to appear in a song and dance film, but the actress who has just developed in Hollywood has too poor English and can only say "hello" and "thank you".
"Chicago" is going to compete for the Oscar, and there can't be too much dubbing in the later stage, so in the end, she had to find an English teacher to tutor her for half a year, so she barely got the lines right.
As for the two main actors, Al Pacino, the current male god of Hollywood, the Oscar winner, has excellent acting skills.
Another actor, Christian Bale, although he did not receive the Oscar certification, began to make commercials at the age of 8 to support his family, and became famous at the age of 13 starring in the movie "Empire of the Sun" directed by Spielberg, and has already shot thirteen movies in his 20s, and there is no problem with his acting skills, even if there are flaws, his face can be perfectly repaired.
With four excellent actors, coupled with Lee Smith's superb editing, when "Chicago" finally ended with a grand song and dance, the entire Huaxia Grand Theater burst into thunderous applause.
"Wonderful!"
"Wonderful!"
John clapped his hands and got up and hugged Sophia.
Sophia then brought the main actors to the stage for a curtain call, and the applause of the entire Huaxia Grand Theater lasted for two minutes before it ended.

"The daughter of the great director Coppola, Sophia is back with 'Chicago'!" - Hollywood Times
"Bringing the enduring "Chicago" stage play from the stage to the screen, Sophia uses a gorgeous comedy to expose the greed, worldliness and utilitarianism of human nature. βThe New York Times
The day after the premiere of "Chicago", all the media and film critics in North America unanimously praised "Chicago" and gave Sophia affirmation. These people may have forgotten that it was they who pushed Sophia to the throne of the Golden Sour Plum Award back then, and used all the vicious language to force Sophia to Paris.
Therefore, when "Chicago" shows Chicago in the 20th century, it is not a satire on the current Hollywood, where the lights are full of wine and money, and the fame and fortune are paramount, when a ridiculous and laughable satirical drama is not staged!
After reading a few film reviews, John put the New York Times aside, did not pay attention, and concentrated on eating breakfast on the table, the critics' words becoming more and more fake, and the whole article was full of Franklin flavor.
"Chicago had a good midnight show last night, grossing $8.82 million at the box office. β
Devon Morgan stepped on the sky-high and appeared in the restaurant with a smile on his face, and the first movie of the new line of the year ushered in a good start, which made her very happy.
"How's the audience's word-of-mouth?"
John is more concerned about the audience's word-of-mouth, which is the basic condition for whether the film can be a big hit, if the audience's word-of-mouth is not good, it is useless to hype the movie.
"The word-of-mouth is also good, the professional score is 8.1, 78% of the audience's word-of-mouth people scored A, 12% played B, and only 10% gave C, it seems that the film will not lose. β
It is impossible for any movie to be liked by everyone, as long as it can be liked by most people, it is already good, and "Chicago" can have such a reputation at least to ensure that the box office will not dive in the later period.
"Not bad. β
John nodded after listening, a high reputation has a high box office, and the influence of word of mouth is very powerful in the era when the Internet has not yet been fully popularized. In his previous life, "Chicago" earned $170 million at the box office, and as long as there was such a box office in this life, John was very satisfied.
