"Because the horizon is always there, you want to get there, but you never get there. ”

In front of a luxury hotel near Disneyland in California, Matthew stood in the middle of some reporters and said something inexplicable, "That's it, it's too far away to give up." ”

He smiled charmingly, "So, I'd love to be like Will Turner and Jack Sparrow and head to that horizon!"

This kind of literary and artistic words, of course, are not something that a culturally cultivated person like Matthew can come up with, but is carefully prepared by the crew.

Matthew is also now learning and selling.

On the other side, Johnny Depp's subdued voice came.

"We are evil demons, big villains. Have a drink and enjoy the life of a pirate!

In the face of many media reporters, so crazy and out of tune, except for Johnny Depp, there is no second person in the crew who can do it, "What boy hasn't had a dream when he was a child? In this dream, he is an all-powerful pirate captain, wearing a scimitar at his waist, leading a sailboat with a skull flag, unrestrained in search of adventure and excitement on the sea?" At that time, I may have been blind in one eye because of years of fighting, so I didn't have to close the other eye when I was using a monocular. ”

Johnny Depp's temperament, combined with these words, attracted reporters to keep taking pictures.

Across from Matthew, a tall male reporter asked loudly, "Matthew Horner, do you think Pirates of the Caribbean will succeed?"

"Of course it will work!" Matthew said first, thought for a moment, and then added, "Don't you think the film is whimsical, full of incredible imagination and creativity......?

He said, "I think this film has all the ingredients for the success of commercial films, and I can't do it without being a hit." ”

The front is the answer prepared by the crew, and the last sentence was added by Matthew himself, he estimates that the film is unlikely to hit the street, and the possibility of this saying becoming a joke is naturally very small.

If he doesn't show confidence himself, that's a joke.

Compared with Matthew and Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley has a lot fewer reporters around her, and the reporters who came to interview her all came from the theater of Disneyland and watched the film.

They all know very well that in the poster and publicity of the film, there are three protagonists, one woman, two men, but in fact, it is a pattern of two male protagonists and one female supporting role.

As soon as the time for the interview arrived, Disney staff immediately came over, isolated the reporters, and led Matthew, Johnny Depp and Keira Knightley into the hotel's banquet hall.

Unlike previous press conferences held after premieres, Disney Studios did not follow Hollywood's usual procedures, but instead convened the crew to hold a thank-you reception for the guests, reporters and critics who attended the premiere after the premiere.

Entering the ballroom, Matthew stayed with Keira Knightley, and for the most part, he kept his contract.

"Cheers!"

Led by Jerry Bruckheimer, Matthew raised his glass with the crew and took out the thank-you wine.

Matthew took the cup from Keira Knightley's hand and handed it to the waiter, along with his own, and saw that Keira Knightley seemed to be in a bad mood and asked, "What's wrong, Kayla?

It was already ten o'clock in the evening, and the two of them had only eaten a little bit of something that was better than nothing from noon to now.

Keira Knightley shook her head, "I'm fine. ”

How do you say this kind of thing? dissatisfied with your role in the film, depressed because the roles are far less brilliant than Matthew and Johnny Depp?

Matthew finally got to know Keira Knightley, and after a little thought, he roughly guessed something, but he didn't know what to say, just when Helen Herman came over.

"Miss Knightley. Helen Herman politely said, "Can you borrow your boyfriend?"

It was the insider who spoke, and of course Keira Knightley would not refuse, saying, "You guys, please." ”

"Something?" asked Matthew.

Helen Herman nodded, "Take you to meet a few people." ”

Matthew followed Helen Herman and soon came to two people, one short and fat with glasses, and the other lanky.

Helen Herman introduces Humpty Dumpty first, "Matthew, this is the critic Mr. Roger Albert. "Then, I introduced the tall and thin man," this is Mr. Roger Albert's partner, Mr. Richard Rope. ”

Subsequently, she introduced the two to Matthew.

After shaking hands and saying hello, Matthew said very politely, "You two are the top critics in North America, and it's a great honor to meet you." ”

Richard Loppe: He doesn't know, but Roger Albert's name is too loud.

A few people said a few polite words, probably because of the critic's style, or perhaps considering himself an expert on film, Roger Ebert directly commented on Matthew's performance in the film.

"There's no denying that Will Turner is the highlight of the film second only to Jack Sparrow. He looked at Matthew and continued, "You did a good job in the scenes, especially the action scenes, which were generally very three-dimensional and vivid, and now it seems that Disney and Jerry Bruckheimer chose you to play Will Turner, which was a very wise decision." ”

"Really?" Matthew's face deliberately showed a hidden ecstasy, as if it was a very remarkable thing to be praised by Roger Albert, and even his voice was full of excitement, "Mr. Albert, do you really think so?"

Roger Albert smiled slightly, hiding a hint of smugness, and said, "Of course!

Matthew laughed, as if it were genuine.

But as soon as his smile bloomed on his face, Roger Albert added, "You have to pay attention to one thing! Your flaws in the film are also obvious." ”

Matthew immediately put away his smile and asked very seriously, "Mr. Albert, you are a benchmark in the critic world, can you help me correct me?"

Seeing Matthew so humble and polite, Roger Albert cleared his throat, which had been getting more and more uncomfortable recently, and said, "Compared to most young actors, your portrayal of Will Turner is indeed wonderful, but most of these highlights come from action scenes, not your own performance ......"

Hearing him say this, Matthew wanted to ask, isn't an action scene a movie performance?

But when you think of Roger Albert's fame, there's no need to offend him to his face, and he's just starting out, so he needs to get on good terms with such critics so that they can say as much good things as possible.

Roger Albert's words never stopped, "You need to hone your acting skills further!"

This sentence actually points out Matthew's biggest problem right now, and he himself can realize that compared to Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow, his Will Turner will be completely suppressed if he doesn't have action scene pluses.

But acting skills are inexplicable, and there is no clear measurement standard, it is not easy to improve, Matthew's self-practice has never really stopped, but the improvement is not very obvious.

Roger Albert is one of the nation's top critics, and perhaps knows a lot about it......

Thinking of this, Matthew couldn't help asking, "Mr. Albert, I've also been struggling to improve my acting skills, but I can't find a good way." ”

Perhaps Matthew's true and false attitude and words gave Roger Albert the feeling of a good actor who worked hard, and he said quite seriously, "Go to the independent film industry, go there to take on some small productions and in-depth roles to hone your acting skills, and give up flashy commercial films for the time being......"

After listening to the first sentence, Matthew took Roger Albert's later rhetoric as a deaf ear, not that Roger Ebert's method was unreliable, but that it was completely contrary to the line he and Helen Herman had formulated.

If he wanted to go to the independent film industry to hone his acting skills, he would have gone a long time ago, and he would not have waited until now.

However, Matthew didn't show what he was thinking, and his face still looked like he was listening carefully, and he didn't need to have an unnecessary argument with Roger Albert because of such a trivial matter.

Making a good impression on Roger Albert is better for him.

Matthew waited until Roger Albert finished, his tone didn't change at all, and he said, "Thank you! I think I know what to do." ”

"Hmm!" Roger Albert seemed to admire Matthew's attitude, "there are very few sensible young people like you now. ”

"It's a big prize. Matthew said politely.

After a few more chats about the movie, Matthew said goodbye and left with Helen Herman.

"Do you really want to go to the independent film industry?" asked Helen Herman.

Matthew shrugged, "What do you think?"

Helen Herman no longer explores this issue, how can a person like Matthew Horner, who is keen on fame and fortune, run to the chaotic and oppressive independent film industry to develop when there is a commercial film actor who can pick it up?

The two walked towards Keira Knightley, and Helen Herman changed the subject as she walked, "The heroine Elizabeth Swan doesn't have a strong presence, is she angry?"

"I don't know. Matthew shook his head slightly, "Probably a little." ”

was originally full of expectations, but after the film was released, he found that his role was a gorgeous vase with soy sauce, and he would probably be a little depressed if he was replaced.

Helen Herman said, "The characters in the film are a bit unbalanced, completely focused on you and Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley's role is too light, I think the previous plan needs to be adjusted according to the audience's response to the character in the future, if Keira Knightley doesn't respond well, she will be a burden to stay with you again, we better give up on her sooner." ”

Matthew thought for a while and said, "Let's wait for the word-of-mouth of the film to come out." ”
