"I didn't expect to see you. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
That was the first thing Rose said when he saw Murphy, and he continued, "I didn't expect us to meet here again." ”
Murphy just smiled and didn't say anything.
This is the interview room of the California State Penitentiary, and because Robert used the relationship, there was no fence and glass between the two, but a separate interview room.
Rose shook his head at Murphy, "You shouldn't be involved. ”
"It's fine." Murphy didn't seem to care, "It's just a little trouble." ”
In fact, in recent days, many media have questioned him, and many tabloids have even hyped him up for money laundering for drug cartels.
There is no need for Murphy to say anything, Twentieth Century Fox stood up to refute the rumors, in recent years, they have been the producers of films directed by Murphy, saying that Murphy is laundering money, isn't it saying that Twentieth Century Fox is also involved in money laundering?
That's the benefit of being backed by a big group.
As for the damage to his reputation, Murphy doesn't care at all, the director never measures it by morality, but by his work.
Murphy looked Rose up and down, "Didn't get bothered, did you?" ”
"Some things are inevitable." Rose looked pleasant, "This is my old turf." ”
"Hmm." Murphy nodded, lowering his voice, "Don't worry, I've already had someone say hello here." ”
Inside the prison, there are many unspoken rules outside of the law, which Murphy knows very well, and it has been a long time since Rose was last here, and no one knows if the people inside will buy it as much as they did at the beginning.
In fact, it is not only Ross who has been arrested and sentenced one after another, but also many of Rose's subordinates, some things are completely operational, and those subordinates who have been arrested by Ross will be transferred to state prisons one after another.
That way, Ross won't be alone.
Because of the surveillance here, Murphy didn't say it explicitly, and of course Rose wouldn't talk to him about sensitive topics, so the two chatted for a while, and the time for the visit was almost up.
"What else is needed?" Murphy asked, "Just ask, don't be polite with me." ”
Rose laughed, "Remember the last time I told you? ”
"Last time?" Murphy hesitated for a moment, then thought, "You mean making a movie?" ”
"yes." Rose put away his smile, not at all like he was joking, "I've told you a lot about me, what do you think?" Is it suitable for making a movie? ”
Anything like what happened to Ross naturally has the possibility of being adapted into a movie, and Murphy is well aware of this, but this adaptation is not easy, especially as he is a friend, and once the described position is deviated, the movie may become a joke.
So, Murphy said, "You're not afraid I'll shoot you like a complete asshole?" ”
"I was meant to be a jerk." Ross didn't care at all, "Are you still afraid of becoming a jerk in the movie?" ”
Rose looked at Murphy and asked, "Is it possible?" ”
Murphy thought for a moment and said, "Of course it works. ”
When they were in prison together, Murphy listened to Ross talk in detail about his past, especially the tragic experiences of his youth, which can be said to be an important factor in Rose's transformation and finally becoming the current Rose.
"That's good." Ross kept thinking about it, "I'll have someone give you written authorization if your ......"
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Murphy raising his hand.
Murphy knew what Rose wanted to say, and shook his head, "You just need to give me authorization, and you don't have to think about the rest." ”
Rose nodded, "Then I'll wait for your good news." ”
"You're going to have to wait a while." Murphy stood up, "I'm working on a project right now, and I don't have time for the time being. ”
"I can wait slowly." Rose pointed around, "What I have is time. ”
When Murphy left the state prison and drove back, he was still thinking about Rose's words, it is not easy to adapt such a movie, especially since he has a close relationship with him, and his position will unconsciously be biased towards Rose, which is a taboo for adapting a movie.
The best way to do this is to put a person in front of the audience without judgment, as in the adaptation of "The Wolf of Wall Street".
However, now is not the time to think about this, after all, he still has a film to shoot.
In the years that followed, Murphy continued to shoot new projects, still focusing on the set of Venice, and since the film already had an official title, the promotion of Twentieth Century Fox began one after another, including a press conference that Murphy had to attend.
When it comes to cooperating with the producer's publicity, Murphy never shirks, because he has always been well aware of the importance of publicity and marketing to any film.
The press conference was held in the press room of the Beverly Hills Hilton, and there was nothing unusual about it compared to previous press conferences.
Hollywood is a very patterned place, such as this press conference, after the routine cutscene, the press conference came to the most important reporter question session.
As the producer and distributor of the film, a reporter from Fox News, a subsidiary of Twentieth Century Fox, was the first to be named by the press officer, and she stood up and asked, "Director Stanton, can you tell us about the general content and theme of the new film?" ”
Someone immediately brought the microphone to Murphy, who nodded lightly and said, "The new work is tentatively titled "City of Chaos", which tells the story of the male protagonist in order to eradicate the evil forces in New York City, a crime action film that strives to eradicate the evil forces of New York City, and the audience will see a new New York, a new metropolis that integrates elements of cities such as London, Paris and Mexico from a dark perspective. ”
A male reporter from the New York Times became the second reporter to ask, "Murphy, so the New York in the film will be different from the real one?" ”
"Yes, very different." Murphy doesn't deny it, "It's going to be an exaggerated version of modern New York, a metropolis that makes people feel deep and boundless, and I want the audience to feel like New York City is a place that is both familiar and dangerous." ”
He thought for a moment and emphasized, "My definition of New York in the film is 'the cubic of New York', and in order to capture this essential attribute of the city, my crew and I are ready." ”
Although it is not possible to shoot in New York on location, the increasingly excellent CGI compositing technology can solve this problem very well.
Of course, those pure urban locations will be shot as live as possible, but where the computer should be used to synthesize the picture, Murphy will never hesitate, let alone give up, he is not a technical school, nor does he insist on the traditional school of film, and he will not insist that all pictures must be shot in real life or using models, in the highly developed computer now, the cost of CG is constantly decreasing, and many times it is more cost-effective, time-saving and labor-saving than using prop models to shoot.
There is also shooting, Murphy has been familiar with IMAX camera equipment since the preparation period, and from this film, he will use IMAX technology more and more to shoot later films.
In short, he has never been a film controller, nor has he ever rejected advanced technology.
Just as sound films replace silent films, and color films replace black-and-white films, digital technology replaces film technology is also a general trend, and it is not something that can be changed by a few directors' persistence.
Murphy does not reject the use of film technology, nor does he approve of the withdrawal of film from the film industry, movies should remain diverse, and if all movies become Hollywood popcorn made by digital technology, I am afraid it will be the greatest sorrow of global movie fans, but Murphy is not like some people, he will never dwell on the glory of the past.
The replacement of the old and the new is a theme that will never change in this world.
Soon after the press conference, the news websites of major media outlets updated the relevant content, and most of the media took a wait-and-see attitude towards Murphy's new film.
After all, crime action movies are outdated.
This press announcement is just a small episode in Murphy's filming, all the publicity and promotion will only be handled by Twentieth Century Fox for the time being, Gal Gadot is in charge of the central liaison, and after the press conference, she will meet with Kara Firth every day to ensure smooth communication between the crew and Twentieth Century Fox.
The rest of the time, she mostly stayed on the set, even if she had no work to do, she would stand on the outside of the set and watch Murphy's shooting.
In recent times, Murphy has been filming Henry Cavill and Liam Neeson opposing each other.
"That Henry Cavill rarely ...... words"
Because she didn't have her own role, Margot Robbie stood next to Gal Gadot, looking at Henry Cavill, who was preparing on the set, and said the other party's gossip, "The silence is like a log, it's boring." ”
Gal Gadot ignored Margot Robbie's words, just watched inside the set, surrounded by green screens, Murphy was directing the camera with Philip Raschel, and a bulky IMAX camera was lifted by a boom and was slowly moving towards the slide.
A few days ago, Gal Gadot tried this IMAX camera, it is far bulkier than ordinary digital cameras, and it is quite inconvenient to operate, but the picture captured has to be amazing, it does have its uniqueness.
Of course, as a producer, she knows very well that the launch of such a camera also means a large amount of money consumed.
"Murphy called that Henry Cavill idiot over again." Margot Robbie kept whispering in her ear, "This Englishman has a very bad understanding, and this scene is very important, I guess Murphy will teach him a good lesson." ”
Gal Gadot turned to look at Margot Robbie and asked, "Is this scene important?" ”
"Of course." Margot Robbie explained, "The rivalry scene on the second day of filming was a clash of ideas between Chris Dane and Renner, and this time it was for Chris Dane to learn to control his anger. (To be continued.) )
