Is "Fruit Hard Candy" a new plan for Reims?

After experiencing the baptism of the crime trilogy, people have established strong confidence in Lance, believing that Lance can create miracles again, so what theme will Lance's new work choose; But at the same time, the frequency of creation of four works in three years is really efficient, which also makes people start to worry, will there be a creative bottleneck in Lance? Will such an intensive production affect the quality of the work? Will the squandering of talent and the urgency of profit cause Lance's work to lose its previous sharpness?

On the one hand, people are looking forward to and curious whether "Fruit Hard Candy" is a crime trilogy-style work or a work that creates a "day after tomorrow" box office success, but judging from the cost budget of 600,000 yuan, there seems to be no suspense about this answer; On the one hand, people are worried and questioning, if "Hard Fruit Candy" is really Lance's work, does it mean that Lance has re-embarked on the old path, and has inherited the style of "killing with a knife" and "Sin City", will this be a preview of Lance's talent?

It's hard to imagine that just a "possibility" that there is no way to determine has sparked such a discussion, and Chaos Pictures and Lance haven't even responded positively - maybe "Hard Candy" is not Lance's new work plan at all. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoEven so, people are still having a lot of fun.

Lance, who was on the cusp of the storm, completely disappeared, his mobile phone was turned off, and his email was not answered, as if he had completely disappeared from Los Angeles.

If one wants to find Lance in Los Angeles, it won't be possible, because he's still in Napa Valley, enjoying a rare time of cleansing. Today, Reims visited another small winery to enjoy the unique charm of Napa Valley wines. They were accompanied by Alexander Payne, a husband and wife.

"If Nicole hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known you were also on vacation here." Lance looked at Alexander and Sandra Wu standing side by side, and sighed with a smile.

It was Sandra Wu who spoke, "Shouldn't you enjoy your leisure time on vacation?" The sentence had no beginning or end, and Lance was stunned, "I've heard that a guy named Strello has come to Napa Valley. "The subtext is: I know you're in Napa Valley, and I deliberately didn't contact you, just to enjoy the world of two.

This made Lance laugh dumbly, then frowned slightly and looked at Sandra Wu, "Are you serious?" ”

Sandra closed her mouth and shook her head and said, "You'll never know, will you?" This response made both Lance and Alexander chuckle.

"So, can I understand that it is not me who attracts you today, but the wine?" Lance said with a hurt look on his face.

Sandra Wu looked up at Alexander, "It should be up to him to decide." ”

"I've tasted too much red wine in order to shoot 'A Cup of Life'." Alexander's smile didn't seem to be as much today, and he still maintained a gentlemanly posture when he spoke, but he seemed a little low. However, the subtext of this sentence quietly lightens the atmosphere.

Lance made an inviting gesture, "So I can start looking forward to the next tasting trip, right?" Then he cast an expectant glance at Alexander, which made the corners of Alexander's mouth rise slightly.

Alexander did know a lot about red wine, and when it came to it, it made Lance think that if Ian was called, there would be no end to the conversation between them. Lance looked at Alexander, who was asking in detail about the vintage of the wine and the climate of that year, and half-jokingly said to Sandra Wu, "He drank a little too much today, didn't he?" Or is it that he's always been so good at drinking? ”

During the wine tasting just now, Alexander's cumulative consumption was at least one and a half bottles.

Sandra Wu said indifferently, "He's not been in a good mood lately. We're talking about divorce. Lance was really a little caught off guard, "Oh", but Sandra Wu shook her head with a smile, "Don't worry, we're all fine, it's our mutual decision, it's good for both parties." It's just that the mood is inevitably a little lost. Sandra Wu raised her head and smiled at Lance, "Thank you for inviting us out today, always staying in the villa, we need a little sunshine." ”

It seems that there is a reason why Alexander did not invite Lance as a guest some time ago.

Lance could see a hint of tiredness in Sandra Wu's smile, not obvious, but lingering, "We always need to keep going, don't we?" "Life is complicated, it's never that simple, many times, divorce or breakup can have many reasons, but sometimes, divorce can also be without reason, it's just that both parties decide to separate, which is good for each other.

It's not because you don't love anymore and you leave, but because you love each other and choose to let go. It's not as great as imagined, it's just that some people are suitable for love, but not for life, and the trivialities of marriage and getting along day and night will only make each other more painful, so they choose to break up because of love. This is precisely the cruelest part of life, powerless and helpless.

"We all need a reason to keep going." Sandra let out a long breath and laughed.

Lance thought for a moment, "What do you think of making a cameo in my new work?" This is the main reason why he invited the Alexander couple today. Although he learned that there were some problems in their marriage, Lance took the initiative to bring it up.

Sandra Wu's eyes widened in surprise, "Do you remember our joke at the Oscars?" Lance chuckled softly, not admitting, but not denying it, "So, what an important role this is?" You can try to convince me. Sandra Wu deliberately put on a high posture, and that arrogant expression really made people laugh.

Lance didn't smile, but nodded solemnly, "This is an independent movie, there are only five characters in total, and two of them are the protagonists......" Lance said before Sandra Wu interrupted, "It seems that I am not one of the protagonists." Lance paused for a moment and nodded, "Of course, you're not. He denied it categorically.

Sandra Wu didn't mind, and said casually, "Fair enough." ”

"The other three are all cameos, and each of them only has three or four sets of shots, but they all have a few lines." Lance just explained like this, and Sandra Wu immediately understood, "A one-man show in a confined space? I mean, a stage for two. Lance nodded in the affirmative.

"Who else will make a cameo?" Sandra Wu still seemed to be hesitating, not immediately making up her mind.

"Michael Fassbinder." Lance had already called, and Michael would make a cameo appearance as the café clerk at the café where Jeff and Hayley met, and the guy who teased Jeff about dating his daughter. Michael was working hard for the filming of "300 Warriors" at this time, and he suffered a lot for the sake of a body of tendon meat, but he still did not hesitate to agree to Lance's invitation.

"That German-Irish dude?" Sandra Wu whistled, and after the appearances of "the day after tomorrow" and "killing with a knife", Michael has begun to become familiar in the circle.

"And Scarlett Johansson." In fact, Lance was a little hesitant to make this decision, because using Scarlett to play Jeff's ex-fiancée Genaire is likely to steal the focus and lead to an imbalance in the proportion of the movie. However, after careful consideration, Lance still sent an offer to Scarlett, and Scarlett symbolically asked for a dollar to become the second guest actor in "Hard Candy".

"Wow." Sandra Wu whistled again, "I knew you could eat both men and women." This ridicule made Lance really cry and laugh, which directly caused Alexander to turn around and show a puzzled expression, Sandra Wu pointed at Lance with a smile and explained, "Lance was talking to me just now, and I said he should try to talk to you." ”

Alexander was not surprised, but looked Lance up and down seriously, and then nodded his chin meaningfully, "Good advice." ”

is worthy of being a screenwriter who wrote "A Cup of Wine Life", and the humor in the quiet is completely at his fingertips. Lance just raised an eyebrow and said solemnly, "I'll keep it on my daily schedule." ”

"Good boy." Sandra patted Lance's arm, blinked, and then stepped along, keeping up with Alexander's pace, and Lance then came over, but didn't bother to mention it again. After a while, Sandra Wu suddenly turned her head and said without warning, "You know, my salary is very high. Lance didn't speak, just looked at Sandra Wu intently, showing an expression of "I'm listening", "How about a dollar, and three meals guaranteed to me during my time on the set?" Can you afford it? ”

"I'll do my best." Lance said cautiously, saying such a funny conversation in such a solemn way, especially with such a gesture between the two parties, which made the accompanying staff standing next to him not hold back after all, and turned his head and laughed.

As a result, the entire crew of "Fruit Hard Candy" has been almost formed, and now only the heroine position is vacant, which is also the most difficult part of the entire crew. It's just that I don't know how many actors can be attracted to the audition by the announcement, unlike the previous "day after tomorrow", the budget marked by "Fruit Hard Candy" is only 600,000, which is destined to be difficult to attract a large number of actors to participate in the audition, which is also intentional by Lance, he still hopes that more potential new actors can join the performance.

It would be great if Alan Peggy could come over for the audition, and he was a little curious about how much strength Allen could show. It's a pity that her name is not on the screen actors guild. (To be continued.) )
