On the day of the premiere of Twentieth Century Fox for "Heavenly Dynasty", not only Matthew went, but even Helen Herman went, because after Matthew, Helen Herman had a second star client.

At the end of April, Helen Herman successfully poached the wall and signed Eva Green, the heroine of "Dreaming of Paris", Matthew didn't say much, as the angel agency grows, Helen Herman will definitely sign new clients, besides, this is an actress and will not distract his resources.

Besides, with his current coffee position and box office appeal, if he thinks it's not suitable, he just jumps ship, and CAA and William Morris have been in contact with him.

"Matthew, this is Tom Rothman. ”

In the VIP room of the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, Helen Herman introduces Matthew, "Tom is the director of the production and distribution department of Twentieth Century Fox. ”

Matthew hurriedly stepped forward, shook hands with the middle-aged man with glasses, and exchanged a few pleasantries.

"Actually, we almost got close to working together. Tom Rothman said with a smile, "Originally, Twentieth Century Fox was going to release "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", but unfortunately Summit Entertainment temporarily changed his fortune. ”

He looked at Matthew and said seriously, "When will you collaborate on a film with Twentieth Century Fox?"

Matthew understood that this was all the effect of the successive successes of the past few movies, and hurriedly politely said, "There must be a chance." ”

The two chatted a few more words, and Tom Rothman went somewhere else.

Helen Herman looked at his back and said, "If 'Kingdom of Heaven' loses, I guess he'll be mostly responsible." ”

"Why?" asked Matthew curiously.

"Haven't you heard?" Helen Herman glanced at Matthew and explained, "Uncle Scott's original edited version is not at all the version that will be released today, Tom Rothman was very dissatisfied with Uncle Scott's edited version, and personally ordered the editor to re-edit the film, reducing the content by about fifty minutes, Uncle Scott was very angry, but there was no way. ”

Matthew nodded, "I've heard Orlando mention it. ”

Helen Herman shook her head slightly, "I think this film is a bit dangerous, and the reputation of the two test screenings is not very good." ”

The door to the VIP room opened, the cast and crew walked in, Matthew and Helen Herman went over to say hello to Ridley Scott, and then hugged Orlando Bloom, and under Orlando Bloom's introduction, met the tall Liam Neeson.

Seeing Liam Neeson, Matthew suddenly remembered a comment on a movie forum where the other side of the Pacific reviewed the most unprovoked characters in movies at the time, with Liam Neeson's daughter and Keanu Reeves' dog among them.

Helen Herman then introduced him to Eva Green.

"Hello, Miss Green. Matthew shook Eva Green's hand, and Eva Green responded with the same smile, "Hello." ”

She asked tentatively, "Can I call you Matthew?"

Matthew nodded, "Of course." He added, "Miss Green, your English pronunciation is so standard that you can't make out the French accent. ”

"Call me Eva. Eva Green smiled, "I studied at New York University and specialized in accent correction. ”

Matthew didn't know much about the actress, and in an international way, he praised, "Eva, you're so beautiful." ”

"Thank you. "Eva Green was new to Hollywood and knew the importance of networking.

Matthew looked at Eva Green quietly, the French woman's long black hair was obviously dyed, and she was wearing a black gown with a pale complexion, which was a stark contrast.

Frankly speaking, this woman's appearance does not conform to the traditional Western aesthetic at all, to be exact, it is a bit strange, but it is very in line with Matthew's soft Oriental and Western habitual aesthetics.

Eva Green's eyes are too large, the corners of her eyes are drooping, the corners of her mouth are also slightly drooping, and her nasolabial folds are too deep.

However, Matthew personally feels that she is very beautiful, unlike those blonde and blue-eyed models who are carved out of a mold, Eva Green has a unique appearance, there is no similarity in beauty, her facial features are not very good to look at alone, but together there is a unique beauty, a beauty with evil, dark, cold, and mysterious.

If you have to find a suitable description, it is that the beauty is like a monster, and the beauty is almost obscene.

After a few pleasantries, Matthew took the initiative to stay away from Eva Green, this woman is too attractive to him, he is not a rigid man, it is inevitable that he will have ideas after more contact, and this kind of thinking is unacceptable at this stage, after all, a lot of agreements have been reached for "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", once something messy is done and the media is caught, it will be troublesome.

At the critical moment, he still has a clear priority.

Besides, Eva Green has signed with Angel Agency......

Soon, the people in the VIP lounge entered the screening hall and waited for "Heavenly Dynasty" to start screening.

Helen Herman sat with Matthew, and while there was no one around, she whispered, "It's a special time, don't mess around." ”

Matthew knew that Helen Herman knew herself better, and he didn't deny it, and said directly, "When did I mess around? I'm an adult man, and it's normal to be attracted to women who meet aesthetics, but attraction doesn't mean I'm going to actually do it." ”

Helen Herman thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and didn't say anything more, after all, Matthew is still very serious and responsible about his work.

The movie began to be screened, and Matthew shifted all his energy to the big screen, once he had seen this film, and he also knew that countless people lamented that the release version and the director's cut version were two movies.

After the screening began, he found that the version shown on the screen was indeed very different from the one that was still a little impressive.

Looking at the films shown on the screen, Matthew's biggest feeling is that it is bland, and there is no such excitement as epic films at all, and he is not excited at all.

In addition, there is obviously a problem with the editing, even for people like him who are not very professional, they can see that the plot is not coherent enough, and there are many stars, but the face is blurred.

Even compared to child-oriented family films like "National Treasure", the films shown on the screen can be called pale and unconvincing, not to mention Orlando Bloom and Eva Green, who are almost cut into simple vases, and even old actors like Jeremy Irons and Liam Neeson have no brilliance, and only Edward Norton's masked performance from beginning to end seems to be impressive.

This alternative Hollywood actor has really strong acting skills, and even Matthew has to admire him, even if he wears a mask from beginning to end, he still kills other actors in seconds.

Although the memory is not particularly clear, Matthew roughly feels that the 50 minutes cut in Helen Herman's mouth are simply fatal.

Eva Green's character is completely murdered, and she is simply a typical Hollywood-style vase, and her modern face in this film seems out of place, and the whole function of existence seems to be to string together the contradictory relationships of several characters, and talk about Orlando Bloom by the way, and talk so secretively that she doesn't even show her posture.

Matthew vaguely remembered that the princess she played should have a son, the heir of the kingdom, but after succeeding to the throne, she found that the child was a leper like his uncle, and the princess could not bear her son to repeat her brother's tragic fate, so she ended the child's life, which also caused the kingdom to fall into the hands of her husband.

Such an important emotional thread, because of the editing of Twentieth Century Fox, is almost impossible to see, and the only female character in the film collapses with a bang, and there is no role except for the vase.

Even because it is always tightly wrapped, even the vase is not qualified.

As for Orlando Bloom's male lead, he is slightly stronger than Eva Green, and Matthew now sees the male protagonist Barrian's character very tall and abrupt, he can't understand it, obviously he was a blacksmith from the beginning, how can he become a majestic leader as soon as he inherits the title? And it feels like Orlando Bloom has nothing to play, always silent is golden, just have a cool face from beginning to end.

He seemed to remember that in the version he had seen, there was a separate portrayal of Barrian, but he couldn't remember the specifics, and now there was no trace of it.

With Ridley Scott's ability, it is impossible to make such a low-level mistake, and there is only one explanation that was forcibly cut out by Twentieth Century Fox.

Matthew felt that Orlando Bloom had inexplicably missed an opportunity that could have earned some good reviews, not that he didn't do it, but that everything he did clicked off.

Orlando Bloom met him first, then a pair of big scissors, and Matthew didn't know what to say.

It can only be said that when a person is unlucky, a bird flying in the sky may fall into his mouth if he pulls a piece of.

Of course, the most unfortunate person should still be director Ridley Scott, and the version being shown now is a victim of flesh and blood, and the weakness of the backbone makes the already glorious war scenes seem dull.

Matthew has worked with Ridley Scott, and you can guess it, it can't be what he intended.

Helen Herman once told him that Ridley Scott really wanted to make "Kingdom of Heaven" an epic, and an epic in the traditional sense.

Now, it looks more like Waterloo.

The subtitles appeared, and Matthew turned his head to Helen Herman next to him, "What do you think?"

If he doesn't cheat, he is far inferior to a more professional agent in terms of his ability to estimate the market purely by watching films.

Helen Herman sighed first and shook her head again, "Ridley Scott was miserable by Twentieth Century Fox and Tom Rothman this time. ”
