Chapter 229: Soft spot for perverts
Since he wants to talk about Murphy, of course Dave Scola will investigate and study him, from the large amount of information collected, it is not difficult to see that this is the growth process of a profiteer, since he entered Hollywood, all the cooperation and decision, are all in pursuit of the greatest interests.

Such a person is difficult to deal with, because he will have few ties and will be very realistic; Such a person is also very easy to deal with, because what he wants is very clear.
Therefore, Dave Scola used the most direct way to lay out a series of conditions with huge profit temptations.
Murphy clasped his hands to his chest and frowned, as if he was thinking about this series of conditions.
Seeing Murphy's expression, Dave Scola's smile grew brighter and bigger, and he didn't expect Murphy Stanton to promise anything immediately, as long as he was tempted, it was enough.
is moved, and he can have a series of actions in the future, so that this young director with unlimited potential can become a chess piece for himself to go to the higher levels of Twentieth Century Fox.
"Chess pieces, you should have the consciousness of chess pieces." He whispered in his heart, "Don't think about deciding the position of the chess player in reverse. ”
Murphy's brows tightened more and more, and the smile on Dave Scola's face grew, and even the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes were clearly visible.
"He's definitely tempted." Dave Scola is all too sure of that.
"How can you change the perception of people who have been over-marketed and have led to an antipathy to Gone Girl?" It's the question Murphy has been pondering as he sits here, "How do you get them to go into the theater and become box office audiences?" ”
Hearing Dave Scola's words, Murphy didn't answer immediately, but still thought about it, until the smile on the other party's face blossomed, and he coughed quietly and pulled his thoughts back to this conversation.
"I'm a profiteer!" Murphy stood up directly, "But sometimes, interests aren't the most important thing to me. ”
The smile on Dave Scola's face suddenly stiffened, as if time had frozen.
Glancing at Dave Scola who was stunned, Murphy didn't bother to say anything more, shook his head and walked away, leaving the Fox Mansion and going to the Death Star Mansion in Century City to discuss the issue just considered with Bill Rosith.
"Gone Girl" has received unanimous praise from the media to the audience, but in the eyes of some people, it is the object of disgust, which is the negative effect of excessive marketing.
In a short period of time, there is no particularly good way to change the perception of these people, and the most influential thing for them, in addition to public opinion, is their friends, classmates or colleagues.
Fortunately, the reputation of this film is indeed good enough, although the restrictions of R-rated films will prevent many people from entering the theater, but the good word-of-mouth still attracted a considerable number of audiences on Saturday.
In the theatrical feedback received by Twentieth Century Fox and Stanton Studios, "Gone Girl" is far higher than all films released in theaters during the same period, whether it is a scheduling rate, attendance rate or ticket sales rate.
The good word-of-mouth, and the fact that more and more people who have seen the film have become staunch supporters, have also changed the attitudes of some passers-by, viewers, and loathers.
"Are you really going to give up a really good movie for such an inexplicable reason?"
In an online chat room, Daisy was speaking quickly, "Kate, I swear, if you don't watch this film, you'll regret it." ”
"But...... "The guy who goes by the screen name Kate still seems a little resentful, "Daisy, don't you think it's shameful to use this kind of deceptive propaganda?" ”
"It's just a business operation." Daisy didn't bother to say anything more, and directly sent a new message, "I'll send you some real comments from the audience." ”
She found IMDB's audience comments section and posted comments from regular viewers to the chat room.
"It is really not easy for a feature film to be filmed with such ups and downs, and even thrilling feelings, which shows the narrative skills of director Murphy Stanton and the excellent performance of the actors, especially the heroine Charlize Theron, that elegance, that coldness, that purity, and that viciousness, are skillfully integrated."
"The touching blockbuster of the year, interpreting romantic true love, the best choice for dating, friends who have not seen it, please be sure to take your lover to the cinema to feel the true love of the world before it is released from the theater - Murphy Stanton's latest urban romantic light comedy "Gone Girl".
"A well-crafted masterpiece that covers themes such as 'life, love, loss, guilt', and a compelling and outstanding work of cinema."
Daisy's series of nudges somewhat changed the opinion of some girls named Kate, and she left a sentence in the chat room, "I'd better go see the comments myself." ”
In a detached house in San Diego, a brown-haired girl named Kate exited the chat room, frowned and thought for a while, then picked up the phone and dialed her cousin's number.
"It's me, Kate." She asked directly into the phone, "Dante, didn't you go to see Gone Girl yesterday?" How does it feel? ”
"Great!" There was a shout from inside the earpiece, "Excellent! ”
Kate frowned, "Don't talk about these useless things, be specific!" ”
"Ah, well-then." There was no sound on the other side for a while, it seemed that Dante was thinking about what to say, and after a while, Kate heard his very organized words, "I'll divide it into a few points." ”
"First, it's so perverted, it's so good-looking, I really like it!"
He repeated this many times, several cycles that made Kate frown slightly, but he soon continued.
"Second, it's been a long time coming! The long-awaited story of this genre is perverted in daily life and feels humanity in perversion. ”
"Third, the spirit brought by the disappeared lover is highly excited, and I feel that I can't get back to my senses for a week after reading it."
"Fourth, Murphy Stanton definitely has a soft spot for perverts, and I think he admires women from the bottom of his heart, and loves the 'once tamed you like a sheep and then bites you back.'"
"Fifth, I don't think there is such a thing as an overreputation, and now I care about the immaturity of the director's skills when watching movies. On the premise that the director's skills are mature, we will discuss the style, excellence and other others. "Gone Girl" is a mature TV that has not been seen for a long time, Murphy Stanton is a mature director, and I don't think many directors can compare with him on the same level. ”
Sixth, a director like Spielberg likes to crush people with grand propositions, but he lacks bad taste and a sense of nothingness. I like Murphy Stanton's choice of subject matter, although the film itself is full of control and is in Murphy's control, but he often expresses the attitude of 'damn it, what is all ******this for' in the film, I think the film should make people question life - especially the seemingly ordinary life, the unified and flat outlook on life. ”
"Finally, I'm very, very looking forward to Murphy's next work!"
After hearing this, Kate was stunned, did she really miss something?
"You haven't seen it yet, have you?" The voice inside the earpiece was like a shout, "You really haven't seen it?" Kate, you're so outdated! ”
Kate hung up the phone and opened the webpage again, but she didn't choose IMDB, which is a well-known gathering place for Internet trolls, who knows whether the ratings and reviews above are true or false? She landed on a relatively unpopular movie website and quickly found a section related to "Gone Girl".
There are also a lot of comments at the bottom of the section representing Gone Girl, which is less restrictive than IMDB.
"It's the best of all the films I've seen this year, and Murphy Stanton lives up to his reputation as a personality director!"
"So cool that you don't need friends, so crazy that you don't need companions! A dog-eat-dog story where no one is innocent. I like when the male protagonist asks why we want to destroy each other and hurt each other, the female protagonist answers expressionlessly because this is marriage. Ending, ending, I originally thought that one of the two would eventually kill the other, but I didn't expect Murphy Stanton to give a more terrifying ending so personally. ”
"Director Murphy Stanton deserves five stars: clean, cold, crisp, compact and relaxed, with a wonderful soundtrack for the climactic scene and a visual impact. The plot is unexpected, with obvious social irony. Also, some people actually wonder why someone is laughing in the movie theater, and I laughed for 70 minutes until the end of the laugh and was about to go crazy, and when comedy is also at the top level. ”
After reading this crazy praise, Kate sighed, the feeling of missing out on something good became stronger and stronger, and finally couldn't help it.
"No matter what it is." She turned off the computer, picked up her purse and ran out of the house, "I'll go check it out now, if it's not that good, I must join the protest against Gone Girl!" ”
Kate went to the nearest theater to her home, and after two and a half hours of coming out, she didn't have the joy on the Internet, but a solemn face.
When she came to the theater lobby, she was about to leave, but was stopped by a middle-aged woman, who was from the scene investigators.
"What do you think of the movie Gone Girl?"
Seeing Kate's solemn face, the middle-aged woman thought that she could get a negative review from the audience that was extremely rare in this film, who knew that the words spoken by the girl were completely different from the expressions on her face.
"I've watched too many tepid literary films recently, and Murphy Stanton was directly shocked to the real world as soon as she made a move, and the heroine is a white lotus of the highest level! Renmei is ruthless and focuses on high-level personality distortion for decades! Since the middle of the game revealed that the heroine was self-directed and self-acted, my stomach stirred and the feeling of numbness in the back of my head has not stopped! The ending after layers of twists and turns is really a breath of gasp! ”
She let out a long breath, "Murphy Stanton, except for admiration, it's really overwhelming. ”
After a short period of word-of-mouth fermentation, more and more viewers like Kate turned from disgust to supporters, and as the film's word-of-mouth box office increased, the popularity continued to increase, which also attracted more people's attention. (To be continued.) )
