Chapter 979: Conjuring

After returning from New York, Matthew paid special attention to the current feminist movement and social situation, and determined that with the current situation, there was a very high chance that Harvey Weinstein would be completely knocked into the dust.

Of course, there is no guarantee that it will succeed.

Matthew gathered Amanda, Helen Herman and David Ellison for several days of consultation at Angel Agency, made a detailed plan and preparation plan, and was even ready to change the plan in time according to the actual situation.

After all, the wheels of society as a whole are constantly changing, and plans must be adapted to the actual situation at that time.

The launch time is placed after the New Year, when the awards season enters the most critical moment, and Harvey Weinstein has been the most active figure in Hollywood after the New Year in the past few years, which can give him a head-on blow.

The whole thing, from the initial planning, to the collection of evidence, and the split of the Weinstein brothers, took several years.

Matthew is like the most stoic hunter, always waiting for a chance to strike a fatal blow.

"I always feel like you're planning something. ”

In the moving car, Margot Robbie asked curiously, "You've been a little mysterious lately." ”

Ma corrected his bow tie and said with a smile, "I'm planning a big thing." He could see Margot Robbie's curiosity and shook his finger, "It's not time to tell you." ”

Margot Robbie was even more curious, "You're piquing my curiosity. ”

Matthew spread his hands and said, "Mary, you know, I'm not a good person, I'm always planning some bad things, and it's better that you still don't know about them. ”

Margot Robbie nodded, revealing an empathetic side, "If the pressure is too much, I'll always be your best person to talk to." ”

Although she was very curious, Matthew didn't say anything, and she suppressed her curiosity.

"Don't talk about that. Matthew took her hand, "I'd better think about how I'd deal with reporters." ”

They went to the premiere of "The Conjuring", which was the first public appearance of the two after they got together.

Margot Robbie looked relaxed, "I thought about it, just like before, we can do what we should do and leave the reporters and the media alone. ”

This time it was Matthew's turn to be curious, "You're in a good state of mind." ”

"I remember when you were filming "American Sniper", you said that Xiu Eun love dies quickly, right?" Margot Robbie said, "I have specially checked these days, and the more high-profile couples in Hollywood, the faster problems tend to occur." ”

This is very reasonable, Matthew agrees very much, so when he walked on the red carpet of the premiere of "The Conjuring", the two of them just walked across the red carpet quickly holding hands, and after entering the media area, some reporters shouted that the two of them would pose for a loving pose to shoot, and they ignored it.

Even, when Matthew, the producer, entered the interview area to be interviewed by reporters, Margot Robbie did not go over and went directly into the theater.

Matthew turned down questions about him and Margot Robbie and only talked about the movie itself, "It's going to be one of the scariest films of all time because it's based on some real-world events, and director James Win did his best." ”

Not far from him, James Wing was also interviewed, "The style of this film is not very different from my previous films. For this film I used a very traditional horror film style to make it look like a 1970s movie. Musically, my choice is also traditional, using the standard music of horror films. What I wanted to do was make a traditional horror film with a classic style. ”

Matthew rambled a few more nonsense about some real event adaptation or something like that, and walked out of the interview area.

Speaking of which, these words are also true, because the Warrens in the film are real characters, but on the other hand, the real adaptation is just a gimmick created to promote the film.

Many people call the Warrens two liars, because few of the cases they investigate can stand, and many of the subjects of the investigation have sued the couple afterwards, saying that they have made up a bunch of stories about themselves to make money, and several of them who have not been prosecuted have a history of drug abuse after investigation, and the testimony of this kind of "witness" has no credibility at all, and the prototype of the house in the film is now inhabited, and there is nothing to do.

The so-called real adaptation, only 20% of the truth is real, and the remaining 80% is all editing.

In terms of publicity, it is natural to say how advantageous it is.

Compared to "Blair the Witch" and the like, the promotion of "The Conjuring" is definitely much higher than the line of conscience.

Entering the theater, Matthew went to the VIP room first, and before he saw Margot Robbie, McKenzie Foy came over to greet him obediently.

"It's a pity that I can't watch the movie, I'm going to leave in a while. "McKenzie-Foy has no regrets.

This film is rated R, and she can't watch it in theaters.

Matthew tapped her on the shoulder, "I'll have someone give you the disc when I get back, but you have to promise me to watch it with your parents." ”

McKenzie-Foy immediately swore and said, "I swear!"

This girl is very cute and cute, it can be said that she is very likable, Helen Herman, as her agent, has also talked to Matthew, there are characters such as girls, she can be prioritized.

Margot Robbie chatted with Nicolas Cage for a few words, and then saw Matthew, and after seeing him talk to a little girl, a tall and beautiful woman approached her.

The woman was not very famous, but Margot Robbie had heard of her, Amber Heard, a beautiful woman with special hobbies in Matthew's mouth.

Seeing what Matthew and Amber Heard were talking mysteriously, Margot Robbie just sighed, it has been a while since she returned to Los Angeles from Europe, and similar situations have occurred many times, but whenever Hollywood holds public events, it is too rare to see a female star or female model who has had a leg with Matthew.

Fortunately, Matthew was just talking to them.

Margot Robbie also lamented that her psychological quality is good enough, maybe the moment she got off the plane, she anticipated the current situation and was mentally prepared.

She told herself more than once that the past was gone and that she had to look forward.

Moreover, during this time, Matthew has been proving his commitment with practical actions.

"After almost a year of waiting, Harvey Weinstein is getting a little impatient. Amber Heard lowered her voice and said to Matthew, "He told me to increase the dose and make you break down sooner." ”

She moved closer, her voice lowered, "You want me to take more pictures and falsely accuse you." ”

Matthew nodded slightly, "It won't take long to talk to him for a while." ”

"Really?" Amber Heard's eyes widened.

Matthew's voice was also very low, "You go back and take a look at that set, figure out the psychology of the heroine, that project will start preparing for filming next year, you are the absolute heroine!"

Amber Heard's eyes were full of brilliance, "I'll read it ten more times before filming starts." ”

Although the scale determines that the scale of the adapted movie must be very large, it is extremely sensational, and the adapted movie will naturally receive huge attention, coupled with Matthew's aura, it will definitely be like that Margot Robbie at a glance, and the movie will be a big mess if it is not released.

As for those large-scale scenes, is it a problem for her?

Compared to what she played with Matthew, the descriptions in it were all trivial.

Matthew consulted with Amber Heald to see that the time was about the same, found Margot Robbie, and led them into the screening room.

The horror journey of "The Conjuring" has also officially begun.

This is a typical haunted house horror movie.

Haunted houses and exorcisms, as the two pillars of thriller films, can be called the immortal source of horror films, and haunted houses can logically transition to ghost possession or something, which is easier to attract audiences.

In order to create the effect of "real events" adaptation, the film took a few minutes to tell the more real doll of "Annabelle", but the follow-up was a completely different story, Annabelle's "real" doll story for a few minutes was used to pave the way for the "unreal" stories in the future, making them look more real.

In the 70s of the 20th century, Roger and Caroline moved to an old house in Harrisville, Rhode Island, with their five lovely and beautiful daughters.

Although the house is old and has a long history, it allows Roger's family to experience the joy and joy of returning to the countryside. Who knew that the good times would not last long, and a series of strange events appeared one after another, causing the girls to scream in horror and making the nerves of Roger and his wife tense to the extreme.

To do this, they found the Warrens, the most prestigious of the time.

Her husband, Ed Warren, is the only exorcist recognized by the Catholic Church, and his wife, Lorraine Warren, has the ability to glimpse spirits. They had no trouble identifying the crux of the big house, and in order to get permission from the church to remove the spirits, they had to dig deep to gather evidence of the existence of evil spirits......

It can be said that the whole film is full of retro flavor, no plasma, no reversal, no surprise, even the grimace is blurry, only dark and enclosed space and sound effects are used to create a sense of horror more realistic, completely 70s style.

This film also paved the way for the follow-up development of the horror universe, such as the "Annabelle" doll that has been screened several times, as well as the weird music box and so on.

Hearing the exclamations of the theater one after another, seeing the quality of the film, Matthew also made up his mind to let James Wing stay in the horror universe for a while longer, the horror universe movies do not need to splash blood, the clever story layout and the soul-stirring psychological thriller and atmosphere rendering are the biggest killer features.

Judging from this "The Conjuring", James Wing is using extremely pure techniques to produce horror images, and the effect is very outstanding, especially for such a young young director, the skill is even more significant. 8)
