"Miss Mulligan ......"

Inside the studio, the amiable-looking hostess looked at the prompt board opposite and said, "Can I ask you a few personal questions?" ”

Carey Mulligan smiled brightly, "Absolutely. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The show was broadcast live in the evening, and the host followed up with Carey Mulligan's words, "I've talked to some of your fans, especially the male fans who are crazy about you, and they're all interested in your first love. ”

Kerry Mulligan didn't say anything and took the tacit approach.

Although some media reported about the relationship between her and Murphy, neither of them was well-known at that time, and their circulation was very limited, and as time went by, the gap between the fame and status between the two widened, and very few media cared about these old things.

This is the process that was determined before the previous live broadcast, and the hostess asked directly, "What age was your first love at what age?" ”

"Sixteen." Carey Mulligan replied, "Sixteen, to be exact. ”

The hostess then asked, "It was when you first entered Hollywood, if I remember correctly, you had already filmed Hard Fruit Candy when you were sixteen." ”

The atmosphere between the two is like small talk, which is also the characteristic of this show.

"It happened after filming Hard Fruit Candy." Carey Mulligan also looked relaxed, "At that time, I was, how to say, very rebellious, my parents were against me becoming an actor, I fell out with my parents, and then someone helped me and helped me achieve my dream of being an actor, and he looked very, very talented, and amazing, always showing up when I needed it most, so ......"

She shrugged her shoulders, and the hostess took over and said, "So, you're in love with him?" ”

"Hmm." Carey Mulligan nodded slightly, and the face that belonged to the actor showed a bit of nostalgia and intoxication, "I fell madly in love with him, despite the opposition of my parents, family and friends, and fell in love with him." ”

"Love comes first?" The hostess is very good at setting off the atmosphere.

"Yes." Kerry Mulligan smiled, "Love comes first, think he's the best one in the whole world." ”

In fact, all this is to create an atmosphere and arouse the interest of the audience.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the hostess asked, "Can you know who this lucky person is who got your first love?" ”

Carey Mulligan was silent and didn't seem to want to say.

As if she hadn't heard the rumors about Murphy and Carey Mulligan at the beginning, the hostess asked, "Since you met from filming the film, are you a Hollywood insider?" ”

After a moment of silence, Kerry Mulligan nodded slowly.

"Don't talk about it yet......"

These are not established processes at all, and the hostess saw that Carey Mulligan was taking the lead, and immediately improvised, "Let me guess." ”

She asked, "Is that guy still in Hollywood?" ”

Kerry Mulligan nodded.

"Is it an actor?"

Kerry Mulligan shook his head.

"Behind the scenes?" Seeing Carey Mulligan nodding again, the hostess deliberately opened her eyes wide and asked in an incredulous tone, "It can't be Murphy Stanton, right?" ”

Carey Mulligan smiled sheepishly before saying, "Well, it's Murphy." ”

"Wow!" The hostess seemed to have heard some earth-shattering gossip, and her mouth grew exaggeratedly, "Your first love turned out to be Murphy Stanton?" Murphy Stanton, the current Hollywood superdirector? ”

"Hmm." Kerry Mulligan nodded again.

"It's unbelievable!" The hostess was exaggerated for a moment before she said, "Did you fall in love because of the filming of "Hard Candy"?" ”

"Let's just put it that way." Carey Mulligan was like a lady and said slowly, "At that time, we probably had a good feeling because we stayed together all day because of work, but I hadn't been in a relationship before, and Murphy didn't have any experience with it, and we didn't have a relationship until much later......"

"Wait!" The hostess interrupted Carey Mulligan to get to the point of what she said, "Murphy is also inexperienced? So, you're also Murphy Stanton's first love? ”

Kerry Mulligan nodded lightly again, "Yes, we are each other's first love. ”

"First love!" The hostess lowered her voice slightly and asked mysteriously, "Is it the first time for you?" ”

"Murphy, I don't know." Kerry Mulligan hesitated, but said, "It's my first time." ”

The hostess is very gossipy, "With the big director, do you have any special feelings, can you talk about it?" ”

Carey Mulligan spoke slowly, "I was very young and immature at the time......"

In order to promote and win attention, whether it is this show or Carey Mulligan himself, it can be said that they have fought hard.

At the same time, Murphy, who came to New York to promote, sat in the luxurious suite of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, picked up the TV remote control, pressed the power off button, and the Carey Mulligan and the hostess of ABC TV on the LCD screen all disappeared, and the room was quiet again.

He turned on the TV after receiving a call from James Franco, and after watching it for a while, he knew what the purpose of the show was, on the one hand, Leonardo DiCaprio promoting "The Great Gatsby", and on the other hand, Carey Mulligan borrowing his current fame to hype himself.

Knowing what is going on, Murphy has no need to look at it anymore, as for Carey Mulligan's hype, as long as it is not too excessive, she likes hype and let her be fried, after all, everything has been done at the beginning, can't you let the other party say a few words?

Murphy isn't that domineering either.

Besides, using celebrity exes to hype up is a common method in Hollywood circles.

For example, Nicole Kidman is now interviewed, and she will inevitably talk about Tom Cruise, what is the past and how is Liangtang, and what is it for? really misses Tom Cruise, the ex-husband, and it is not in the case of the declining rivers and rivers, borrowing the fame of his ex-husband Tom Cruise to win the attention of the media and the audience.

and Jennifer Aniston, Rachel, who calmly divorced Brad Pitt back then, gradually turned into a pragmatist after it was difficult to open up the situation in the Hollywood film industry, although not as frequent as Nicole Kidman mentioning Tom Cruise, but in ten interviews, there must always be four or five times to mention Brad Pitt, which is also for publicity needs.

In fact, for so many years, Carey Mulligan has kept silent about the past, and Murphy is also a little surprised, this is Hollywood after all, and now Carey Mulligan finally realizes that she can borrow these, which shows that she is realistic, mature, and no longer the little girl who is willful and self-conscious......

Thinking of this, Murphy shook his head, the past is good to let it pass, everyone has to move forward.

Besides, this kind of thing about an ex-girlfriend, let alone a Hollywood star, this country can find someone to come out at random, who doesn't have a few?

Throwing away the TV remote control, getting up from the couch and stretching, Murphy went into the study, compared to the hype of other people's homes, it is better to care about his work, tomorrow he will participate in the live broadcast of "The Today Show" on NBC TV, to build momentum for the second weekend of "Dark City", he wants to see the specific process.

Participation in "The Today Show" is the result of a careful selection by Twentieth Century Fox and Stanton Studios, the No. 1 morning ratings show in North America, and its dominance in the early morning slot is almost unbreakable by other television networks.

Early the next morning, Murphy led the crew to the studio of NBC's New York branch, and this time the people who appeared on the show were mainly the behind-the-scenes team, mainly Philip Raschel and assistant director Michelle Williams.

Since the show is not only an interview with the crew of "Dark City", but also others, Murphy waited for a while before entering the live broadcast room under the leadership of the staff.

The interview with host Matt Lauer, which is not too unusual, focuses on the post-production of the film, especially the use of IMAX technology, which has been praised by fans and the media.

"Dark City is an ambitious story, and I needed a grandiose, majestic dimension to represent it. So, IMAX format is my best, if not the only, choice. ”

Now that this is a hot topic, Murphy is happy to say more, "IMAX has 10 times the area of a typical 35mm film, and the capacity of visual information it carries is much larger than that of 35mm film, and this scale of film makes the image extremely sharp, bright, and more majestic." ”

He looked at the camera and said seriously, "The big screen can bring curiosity and tremors, so I need the biggest screen." ”

Later, Matt Lauer asked about Philip Raschel.

"Because of the unimaginable size of the screen, the audience will ignore the cinematography of the film, but they should be able to feel it, and good cinematography is the essence of the picture."

Philip Raschel is not a newcomer and naturally knows what to say, "Murphy uses a lot of long takes and sharp editing, which he hopes to draw the viewer's attention to the details on IMAX -- it's a subversion of action movie editing." Shooting an IMAX movie can be difficult to prepare and use, as an IMAX camera weighs 135 pounds and is so large that it makes it difficult to move. ”

Michelle Williams, the film's first assistant director, is also the show's focus, saying, "There's only one lab in the world that has produced IMAX recording and playback equipment. And each disc of IMAX can only shoot for three minutes, these three minutes can not be full, and there is still wealth, this feeling of changing the film every three minutes is like shooting Super8 format movies when I was a child, and every time I change the film, it takes a week to do post-processing......"

In short, just like before, Murphy and others are telling how difficult it is to shoot with IMAX and how amazing the results are after shooting.

If a film wants to maintain a stable trend, it not only needs word-of-mouth, but also continuous publicity.

"The Dark City" was challenged by "The Great Gatsby" on its second weekend after its release.
