Standing in the crowded VIP room, looking at the familiar figure opposite, Amanda Seyfried had a feeling of both familiarity and strangeness.

is familiar because she met Ronan seven or eight years ago, and the two quickly became acquainted.

Unfamiliar, is that in the past two years, as long as she doesn't take the initiative, Ronan will never appear by her side.

Ronan smiled and said, "Amanda, you're prettier. ”

As she gets older, Amanda Seyfried has a more fiery figure, a more delicate and beautiful face, and bigger eyes, and she has a decent smile on her face: "Ronan, every time I don't see you for a long time, you give me this sentence." ”

Ronan said, "Because you're prettier." ”

Amanda Seyfried said, "You're busier than you used to. ”

Ronan understood what this meant, and instead of answering, he asked, "How's your studies?"

As he recalls, Amanda Seyfried is now attending the USC Film School.

It's probably because of him that the change has occurred.

"It's going well. Amanda Seyfried said: "I can make up for the missed courses in filming. ”

She pulled the topic back again: "Several times, I have seen you at the activities organized by the academy, thinking of going to greet you, but then giving up, in case it has a negative impact on you, how bad." ”

Ronan said, "It's okay. ”

Amanda Seyfried asked, "How many days are you going to be in New York?"

"I'll leave tonight. "There's a very important meeting tomorrow morning that I need to attend. ”

Amanda Seyfried stopped telling Ronando, "We'll talk back to Los Angeles." ”

Ronan nodded slightly: "Okay." ”

Looking at the blonde girl who was gradually walking away, Ronan suddenly heard the appearance of the first time he saw her, Amanda Seyfried at that time, as if she was only thirteen or fourteen years old.

Later, Amanda Seyfried brought him cupcakes, homemade drinks, and treated him to burgers......

In the blink of an eye, seven or eight years have passed.

Finch walked over at this time, waited until there was no one around Ronan, stepped forward to lower his voice, and said, "Connie just called, Steve Jobs was in India and was rushed back to San Francisco. ”

Ronan was startled and asked, "How's the condition?"

Steve Jobs' physical condition is directly related to his plans and huge investments.

"It's basically stabilized. Finch whispered, "There shouldn't be any more problems anytime soon." ”

Ronan frowned slightly: "Let Connie contact Steve Jobs, preferably his wife, and I'm going to visit Steve Jobs when I go back." ”

Finch said, "Okay, I'll let Connie know." ”

Ronan followed the main creative staff of the crew into the theater and waited for the film to start screening.

But for the time being, his mind turned to Jobs.

If you continue to go to India and let the masters of the third brother treat in a filthy environment surrounded by sandalwood, even if Steve Jobs has the ability to make money, it is difficult to say whether he will be able to hold on until 2010.

The third brother is strong, and the banknote ability is not easy to use!

Ronan is somewhat worried, if the kidney machine has not yet come out, Jobs went to see the Buddha in his heart, then will the huge investment he invested in Apple get the return it deserves?

Unexpectedly, the third brother turned out to be an important factor affecting his investment income.

Ronan had to see for himself to be reassured, and even if the worst was the worst, he had to keep Jobs going until the end of the year.

But thinking about it carefully, Ronan felt that Jobs would most likely live for a few more years, after all, he should not be completely defeated by the third brother's magical spirituality for a while.

The former Steve Jobs, if he didn't believe in the third brother's set of things, could he live a few more years?

As the film begins to show, Ronan puts aside these thoughts for a moment and goes to watch the film instead.

What the specific situation will be, it will have to wait until he meets Steve Jobs.

"Mamma Mia" is a typical musical and dance drama, and romantic love is naturally the theme of the film.

The heroine is dependent on her mother and does not know who her father is.

She wanted her father to give her hand to her husband on the wedding day, so before she got married, she peeked into her mother's diary and found that her mother had three lovers who were most likely her biological fathers.

The film's songs are all tracks that have been widely circulated with musicals, and although the versions that appear in the film have inevitably been rearranged to make the style closer to pop, when the first song is sung, many familiar viewers hum along softly to the music.

All the actors, including Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan and Amanda Seyfried, sang the songs themselves, and while they weren't as professional, they captivated all audiences.

In particular, Meryl Streep's performance in the film can be described as "selfless", singing and jumping in cargo pants, which is very remarkable, not at all like a 60-year-old woman, and she is absolutely dedicated.

The popular and exciting music is the key to "Mamma Mia".

In addition to the music, the film also has a good story, at least a story that conforms to the public's aesthetics, two generations of women's different views on love, and two completely different results produced by indiscreet love and mature love, and then interspersed with friendship, identity annotations and the fulfillment of wishes.

Such a content setting is sure to resonate in the hearts of most people, and can have an appeal that cannot be ignored for any age, regardless of gender, regardless of nationality.

Well, actually, that's all.

Everyone came to see the singing, the female devil smoked, James Bond smoked, and the most unprovoked daughter in the world also smoked......

The scenery is dreamlike, the big names have collective convulsions, the little lovers flirt, and a bunch of unreliable extras......

The environment is too comfortable, the atmosphere is too peaceful, the feelings are rich, the music is beautiful, the dance is unrestrained, the mother is cute, the daughter is very well-behaved, and James Bond is very handsome.

All the people are too cute, and in this case, it is easy for the movie to create a unique atmosphere to infect the audience.

It's about not thinking.

What is the depth to consider, what is the meaning of life, what is the philosophical speculation to consider, what is the social significance of the film?

Go sing and sing along with the movie.

Go get drunk and dream of death, movies are a kind of entertainment.

In this era when the economy is becoming more and more depressed, wages are paid late, layoffs are more frequent than colds, employment pressure is sky-high, prices are soaring, wallets are withering, and I don't know how to really be happy, don't you just want to throw away those heaviness and bring yourself a little happiness when watching movies?

Isn't Pierce Brosnan's broken gong voice funny?

Meryl Streep's performance above the neck is not shocking, she has a work ethic and throws all the pretense deep......

What? You dare to laugh at the most unprovoked daughter in the world, with big eyes, and bad singing? Her father, Brian, teaches you how to be a man in minutes.

I'm Brian Mills and I speak for the father of all daughters around the world!

So, let's have a convulsive carnival together.

Even Ronan has watched this "Mamma Mia", combined with the previous movies, and has an unreliable idea.

In the past, it seems that Amanda Seyfried is really the most unprovoked daughter in the world.

Not to mention the previous starring role in "Hurricane Rescue", take "Mamma Mia" as an example, one of the three long-legged dads is James Bond, one is Kingsman, and the other is Tarzan's father, and then he married Iron Man's father......

A proper winner in life.

The film's supporting actor, Dominic Cooper, has signed a long-term contract with Marvel Entertainment and will play the role of Howard Stark in several Marvel movies and TV series.

"Mamma Mia", a brain-pumping film, is very likely to succeed in terms of test screenings and pre-sales.

After its release in North America, the film will soon appear in overseas film markets such as the United Kingdom, France, and Germany, as a musical drama originating in the West End of London, England.

Then, it was further expanded to the world.

This kind of PG-level song and dance film, with almost no sensitive content, can appear in most film markets around the world.

However, "Mamma Mia" was rejected by the Eastern market.

This is not because the film cannot pass the review, let alone because of political reasons, but because of pure market factors.

China Film Group politely refused the promotion of Embassy Pictures for only one reason, and Oriental audiences did not like this genre.

When the news reached Ronan's side, Ronan also asked Embassy Pictures to cancel further public relations plans, and the song and dance film did not meet the aesthetics of audiences on the other side of the Pacific.

This is normal, the difference between audience and culture is real.

Any type of film will be affected by cultural differences in the market.

In the past, "La La Land" was introduced, and the focus of publicity was on romance films, rather than song and dance movies.

In fact, the dilution of singing and dancing elements is to strive for the consideration of theatrical scheduling and adapting to the viewing preferences of market audiences.

This also explains the underlying fact that song and dance films are not treated well by Oriental cinemas.

Countless fans over there have said that it is too awkward to see the actors singing and dancing without saying a word in the film.

This also includes Ronan, who once felt inexplicably embarrassed when he saw the song and dance plot in the film.

It is also true that cabaret movies have not been popular in the market on the other side of the Pacific.

In order to meet the market demand, even the movies exported by the third brother took the initiative to delete or dilute the singing and dancing elements in order to gain more audience recognition.

After all, Western musicals and operas have never become popular culture in the Eastern market, and it is natural that there is no way to talk about cabaret movies.

Even for films like "Frozen", many people, even minors who are not part of the audience of animated films, still feel abrupt when they see Elsa and Anna singing without saying a word.
