Chapter 150: The Opening

As soon as the two walked into the screening room, Drew directly shook off Nicole and ran to the front row of crew members. Nicole only saw Drew muttering a few words to Tom Hanks, who was sitting next to Eric, and Hanks smiled and got up to give her his place.

Although she was very envious, Nicole knew very well that she was not even qualified to sit in the front row now, let alone let anyone in the front row give up a seat for her, although she was a little unwilling, but the girl still found a seat in the middle of the theater and sat down.

There were more and more people in the screening room, and unconsciously, a man about thirty years old, wearing glasses and polite manners, sat down next to the girl, and the man seemed to glance at the girl unintentionally, revealing a look of surprise that was just right, as if he had just found the glamorous girl next to him, and took the initiative to greet him: "Hi, hello." ”

Although the man's tone is very casual, the girl who often encounters a similar situation realizes the other party's accosting intention as soon as the man sits next to her, although she is a little disgusted in her heart, but the other party greets her so politely, Nicole is not easy to ignore, and says in a flat tone: "Hello." ”

Men don't care about Nicole's coldness, as a veteran of flowers, if you back down because of the coldness of the pickup girl at the beginning, then you will never want to soak in a woman: "Forgive me for being abrupt, miss, but you are so beautiful, especially your hairstyle, which matches your facial contours, makes your whole person look like a classical beauty." You know, many girls nowadays are used to perming their hair into fluffy little wavy curls, but in my opinion, that hairstyle is like a bird's nest, it is simply terrible, and there are so few girls with such tasteful tastes as you. ”

When Nicole heard the man's flattering words, there was no joy in her expression that she was praised, but a look of embarrassment flashed, and she replied a little helplessly, "Thank you for your compliment, sir." ”

"You're welcome," the man said with a smile, "my name is George Northson, and I'm a film critic for magazines. ”

"You can call me Nicole. ”

"Nicole, is it n-i-c-o-l-e? Wow, I suddenly realized that the name was almost for you, in Greek, 'Nicole' is used to describe a beautiful and delicate young woman on the outside, but strong and independent on the inside. ”

George Northen was about to say something when the lights in the screening room dimmed, and for some reason, remembering Eric's coldness to her during this time, the girl was a little disgusted by the courteous accoster, and reminded softly, "The movie is on, Mr. Northam." ”

"Of course, I understand. George Northen realized that he was too eager, and quickly sat up straight, turning his gaze to the screen.

After the opening of the Statue of Liberty in Colombia, the little girl in the red hoodie released fireflies, drew a string of beautiful characters and rushed to the sky, turning into the brightest one in the starlight, after that, the picture fell into a brief darkness, and the sound of footsteps sounded, as if knocking on the audience's heart, but the movie screen still did not appear immediately, and the list of main creators began to appear on the screen.

In everyone's curious anticipation, the picture finally lit up, and in the dimly lit corridor, Tom Cruise with sunglasses climbed the stairs with a blank face, and at the same time, a mysterious and sad male voice chanted.

Nicole was staring intently at the screen, but behind her was the whispers of two girls, who were supposed to be Cruise fans.

"Oh God, I suddenly realized that my little Tommy walks so handsomely, Mickey, I can't stand it anymore. ”

"Me too, me too, Erica, we'll have to go up and ask Tommy for a few more autographs. ”

In fact, Nicole felt the same way in her heart, although she didn't know why.

Fortunately, there was a professional film critic next to him, and George Northam also heard the emotion of the two female Cruise fans behind him, and approached the girl and took the initiative to explain softly: "This is the result of the rendering of the atmosphere, the echo of footsteps, the mysterious chant, the cold shots, and the silent protagonist, constitute a very infectious picture, so it is not surprising that they have that feeling." Eric Williams is a genius, and just a few simple shots highlight a completely different style from his first two films. If you turn the light of the picture to normal, remove the soundtrack and echo, even if it is replaced with other soundtracks, then these shots will not achieve the same effect, this kind of thing seems simple, but it can perfectly integrate several elements together to form an irresistible appeal, which requires a high degree of artistic attainment. ”

When picking up girls, it is obviously not a wise behavior to talk about other men in front of women, but George Northen treats Nicole as an ordinary movie fan, he doesn't think that the girl sitting here will have a chance to contact Eric, let alone know Eric, so he does not hesitate to praise Eric, and at the same time shows off his professionalism in movie appreciation without a trace.

After the male protagonist stepped on the edge of the rooftop, the picture began to switch between memory and reality, and the dialogue between Andy and the doctor, played by GuΓ² Cruise, explained to the audience that Andy only had four weeks left to live.

"Woo, Tommy won't jump off the building, right?" The worried voice of the girl behind her sounded again, which was actually the common voice of many fans in the theater.

The other girl immediately hugged her companion and comforted, "No, Erica, you see Tommy is carrying a backpack, he must have other things, if a person wants to jump off a building, what is he doing with a satchel." ”

"Mickey, do you think Tommy will die?"

"Definitely not, I've heard a lot of reports of terminal cancer patients surviving, and this is a movie, any miracle can happen in a movie, Tommy has never died in the previous movies, he will never die. ”

"I hope so. Erica clasped her hands to her chest in a prayerful look while looking forward to the next move of Cruise, who was standing on the rooftop mountain.

But the movie did not immediately reveal the answer to the audience, after the title, the picture shifted to a restaurant, Hanks played Sean Youzai reading the newspaper while eating breakfast, the camera quickly flicked to the bar of the restaurant, Andy, who also looked calm, was also eating breakfast, while looking up at the sitcom on TV, with a touch of reluctance and nostalgia in his eyes.

The two protagonists appear at the same time, and the audience thinks that the two will have a confrontation in this restaurant, after all, the name of the film is called, but the scene is quickly cut to other scenes again.

"I dare to say that this scene of Cruise will definitely be repeated, this is a time hint set by the director, Nicole, have you noticed Cruise's look, he only has four weeks to live, so, whether it is eating, drinking, or watching TV, his expression is full of concentration and nostalgia, as if he wants to use the remaining four weeks to engrave all the beauty of this world into his soul, I dare to say that Cruise will definitely die in the ending. George Northam, who was next to him, couldn't help but show off again.

Nicole just nodded slightly to indicate that she heard the other person's words, her eyes still staring at the screen without squinting, and the girl began to slowly enter the plot.

Inside the cordon, Sean got out of the car, hurriedly stepped into a police car, and said to Police Chief Ian Spice, who was dressed in a Inspector General uniform and a bulletproof vest, played by Joe Pesci, "Have you been in contact with the robbers?"

Ian's eyes flickered: "Twenty minutes have passed." ”

Sean immediately raised an eyebrow and turned his head to look at Ian in surprise: "You're going to talk? You must say that you're Los Angeles Central District Police Chief Ian Spa, and you surrender in three minutes, right?"

Ian shook his head in embarrassment, then realized that Sean was now his subordinate, not the well-known elite of the police force, so he craned his neck and turned his gaze to the side, looking like what can you do with me.

Joe Pesci's expression is very joyful in terms of words and expressions, and the audience has begun to smile on their faces.

Although Sean was a little helpless, he still had the negotiation recording played.

One hand pressed the play button, and Joe Pesci's special voice suddenly came out.

"Hey, I'm LA Central Police Chief Ian Spagh, you're surrounded by me, and you're surrendering in three minutes. ”

Sean shook his head with a look that was indeed the case, and Ian turned his gaze out the window again.

In the recording, the robber put forward a series of conditions, and Ian couldn't help but retort when he heard that the other party wanted a bulletproof car: "Why don't you want a helicopter?"

Hearing this, Sean shook his head and stomped his feet fiercely, with a kind of helplessness in his tone: "Hey, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"

The atmosphere that Hanks and Joe Percy had created for the audience before also exploded at this moment, accompanied by Sean's frantic movements, and after hearing this line, the theater burst into laughter for the first time.

Sure enough, the robbers changed the conditions and changed the bulletproof car into a helicopter, Sean could only sigh again and again, asked for a walkie-talkie and entered the bank alone, after a series of verbal and psychological fierce exchanges, Sean Shun solved the hostage crisis, and forced the traitor to commit suicide. Although Eric did not make changes to the plot in this paragraph, but in terms of lines, he consulted real negotiators, so it seems more reasonable and sharp, even if it is a professional, he can no longer jump out of the verbal confrontation in this paragraph, of course, the plot time has been delayed by a few minutes, but this is not a problem, the original movie is only ninety minutes, and in Hollywood, most of this kind of large-scale zuΓ² is about two hours long, plus the lines are very cleverly designed, the audience will not feel the drag of this plot at all, but can interpret the excellence of Sean as a male protagonist in more detail。

Leaving the bank, Sean walked to a snack bar, bought a Coke and a hamburger and ate it, and in the crowd of onlookers, an old man with sparse hair smiled weirdly and held up his camera to film Sean's series of actions.

The old man's expression was a little stiff, but with the iconic mysterious male voice singing the soundtrack that appeared almost at the same time, although most fans were still a little confused, the professional film critics present guessed that the old man was probably Andy in disguise.

Sure enough, the scene cuts to a room full of high-tech crime props such as computers and camouflage equipment, and Andy pastes the developed photos of Sean at the scene of the bank robbery on the wall. At the same time, there are other old photos of Sean at SWAT (Special Weapons and Combat Group) plastered on the wall, and the camera sweeps over the wall plastered with photos and newspaper clippings, and the viewer finally understands Sean's identity.
