Entering the VIP lounge of the theater, Matthew saw Alexandra D'Addario and went over to say hello.

"Hi Anna, long time no see. ”

Seeing Matthew, Alexandra D'Addario immediately responded with a smile, "Good evening, Matthew." ”

Although the brief boyfriend and girlfriend-like relationship ended quickly, there was no conflict between the two men, and there was an occasional contact, and Matthew asked with concern, "How was your new film in Australia?"

"It's scary. Alexandra Daddario seemed to remember something terrible, and even her voice changed a little, "This shoot is a nightmare, I have to put pig's blood on my body every day, it's terrible." ”

Matthew smiled, "It's good to finish filming." Don't forget, you're the heroine, and this kind of opportunity is rare. ”

Alexandra D'Addario nodded vigorously, "Hmm." She lifted a strand of hair and pinned it behind her ear and said, "I have time to visit the crew." ”

Matthew politely replied, "I'll go when I have time." ”

Alexandra Daddario didn't take it seriously, even if she was filming in Australia, she could see the gossip news from the entertainment news, Matthew recently had a hot fight with a young actress named Nina Dubov, where is the time to look back at her former girlfriend?

Others don't know, but she knows that Matthew especially likes the new and hates the old, how many women can really make him take seriously? Amanda is one of them, but Amanda and him are just friends, and the two never cross the line of friends.

I'm afraid that the only thing he really loved was Britney Spears, right? Maybe he also has some true feelings for Charlize Theron.

After a few words of chatting between the two, Alexandra Daddario took the initiative to walk away, and this romantic relationship left her with good memories, but in the end it was only a memory in the course of her life.

Alexandra Daddario turned away, Matthew glanced at her back, and a familiar female voice suddenly came from behind, "If you can't bear to, you'll be a girlfriend." ”

Matthew turned his head, and Natalie Portman, who had been invited by him, had come closer.

"Nat. Matthew said dissatisfied, "Do you have to hit me?"

His words and expressions made anyone who read it feel that he is a very good friend with Natalie Portman.

Natalie Potter stood next to him and said, "You're going to get a hit?" and she shook her head, "How could it hit you." ”

Matthew turned to look at Natalie Portman and deliberately joked, "Actually, I want to pursue you more." ”

"No kidding. Natalie Portman also looked at Matthew, seemingly serious, "We're not the right fit." ”

"Why?" Matthew asked.

Natalie Portman said directly, "Are we going to be boyfriend and girlfriend? So, Matthew, we're still normal friends." ”

"Hmm......" Matthew nodded slowly, "you're right. Nat, you're the kind of friend you're hard to come by. ”

Natalie Portman smiled, isn't that what she's been looking for? ”

"This film is about to be released, and "Superman Hancock" has also been filmed. Natalie Portman asked, as if a friend was concerned, "Are you going to take a break next?"

Matthew shook his head, "I can't rest." The Writers Guild is on strike, and my two projects have been affected. ”

Profit-sharing agreements between the Producers' Union and union organizations such as the Actors' Union, Directors Guild and Screenwriters' Guild expire in January, and Hollywood's major unions are looking to get more money for themselves, and an intra-industry confrontation that began with the 1988 screenwriters' strike is about to begin.

Star actors like him are not worried, the scripts of "Fast and Furious 4" and "Twilight" have been finalized, the strike of the Screen Actors Guild and the Directors Guild should not happen, and the Producers Alliance has always treated these two major organizations mainly to appease, which are also the two most critical professions in the industry, and they will definitely get a new share of profits.

As for the Screenwriters' Guild, just like the current situation of this profession in the industry, I am afraid that it will be difficult to achieve the desired conditions, and in the end they can only choose to go on strike that they do not even want to see.

"What about Andrew Stanton's project?" Natalie Portman seemed worried about Matthew, "will it take a hit." ”

Matthew sighed, "Andrew has finished the script, David and I have talked to him a few times, Disney Pictures is preparing "Pirates of the Caribbean 4", the financial support is not enough, we need to raise external financing, David's film company and I are ready to make a joint investment, but the production budget of more than 200 million US dollars is too terrifying, we also need financing, it will definitely take a long time." ”

Hearing these words, Natalie Portman took them all to heart and said, "With your appeal, it shouldn't be difficult to raise money." ”

"It's not easy. Matthew spread his hands, "There's so much money involved. ”

Natalie Portman nodded, if it weren't for the fact that so much money was involved, Plan B and Brad Pitt would have been in contact with Andrew Stanton a long time ago, and Pitt is still doing relevant observations and research, and is also considering fundraising.

According to Brad Pitt, if they don't move, they will be hit.

Matthew looked at his watch and reminded, "It's almost time, it's time to go in." Nat, we'll have time to talk again. ”

Natalie Portman smiled and waved at him, "We'll talk when we have time." ”

The people in the VIP room quickly entered the theater, and the screening hall, which can accommodate thousands of people, was full, and when Aziva Gossman finally walked into the theater with the main creative staff of the crew, the theater resounded with warm applause.

The screening kicked off and a legend began.

A movie, a city, a man, a dog.

The final cut version, Matthew had already seen during the test screening, and there was a finished film edited by Guillermo del Toro, and more than 80% of the scenes were completed by him alone.

It's a one-man show movie in the first place.

According to Hollywood's usual routine, what really brings extinction disasters to the earth and mankind, in addition to aliens, is human beings themselves, since this is a commercial blockbuster, of course, we must follow Hollywood's consistent routine.

Human medicine has invented a new virus that can cure diseases, but the virus mutates and turns infected humans into living zombies.

No one knows where the source of the terrible virus began, only that it cannot be stopped, that it is irreversible, that it cannot be cured, and most importantly, that it is artificially created.

Colonel Robert Neville is a talented pathogen scholar in New York City who serves the U.S. military. As the vanguard of government investment in research into vaccines against epidemic diseases, he watched the virus rage on the streets and could do nothing.

The airborne virus eventually spread across the city at an irresistible rate, forcing the president to order a lockdown on Long Island so that uninfected people could leave the island.

As you can imagine, this practice caused great panic among the citizens, and New York City was in chaos, and Robert Neville anxiously put his wife and daughter on the helicopter out of the city, only to witness their deaths......

Christopher Nolan sat in his position, and once again felt that it was a loss not to say that Matthew Horner played the Joker, he stared closely at the close-up on the screen, Matthew Horner's eyes seemed to be able to speak, and the loneliness and anger shown were really expressive, making people unconsciously think of the tenderness of the iron man.

If there is only one person in the world, and a normal dog, and the dog unfortunately leaves, a world of monsters, loneliness is more terrible than death.

Matthew Horner aptly executes this feeling.

The most uncomfortable thing for him is always hopeless loneliness.

With such a character, perhaps anyone would think that his days are just spent in chaos.

The once-bustling city of New York City has become desolate, lonely, and ubiquitous.

Danger is always approaching.

Grief, loneliness, despair, fear, and the ...... of a future If this character focuses on showing these negative things, then this movie and this character will have little meaning, the more you look forward to the light when it is dark, and the more desperate you are, the more you never give up, which is the essence of this kind of story.

Therefore, although the tone of the whole movie is gray, there is always a trace of warm sunset halo, like a little hope in the despair of the screen.

Christopher Nolan unconsciously considered the structure of the whole film from his own perspective.

The plot construction of one man and one dog is full of unknown attraction because of the support of the background, the film is very fast-paced, and when the audience happens to feel impatient, the main creator presses a straw on the male protagonist, Sam was bitten by a zombie dog and infected with the virus.

As a last resort, the actor strangled Sam with his own hands.

That shot stayed on Matthew Horner's face, Matthew Horner was not at all as bad as those critics said, and the performance definitely deserved the praise of being wonderful.

He didn't exaggerate the pain in his heart with an exaggerated expression, in fact, his expression could almost be said to be blank. However, everyone could see the pain and despair in his heart.

It is precisely because of this emotional foreshadowing that his next collapse is logical, and the male protagonist, who has always been calm and self-controlled, drives towards the zombies, wanting to die with them!

Of course, the film is not without regrets, the actor finally chose to die with zombies in order to retain the hope of mankind, and returned to the traditional routine of Hollywood hero films.

Christopher Nolan is also a director, and understands that this is a must for commercial films, let alone this film, even if it is a big-budget film he shoots, it must also consider the acceptance of the market.
