Chapter 277: Marilyn the Slayer (Part I)
"She conquered me, and she will conquer you, and she and her films will be like Julius Caesar's iron hoof, and will sing the ode 'I come, I see, I conquer' all over the world." In his film review, Alain. Morrison wrote, "Since being on the big screen seven years ago, Jennifer . Jefferson has been on a rampage, and every one of her movie choices makes people pinch a cold sweat for her. "A Week with Monroe" is also a movie that is difficult to watch before it is broadcast, it concentrates several major elements of biopics that are most likely to fail: too legendary archetype, eager to prove themselves, and soaring, young and vigorous, without setbacks starring actors, especially she also worked part-time as an investor and producer, so that no one in the crew could say no to her decision, of course, there are very unqualified rookie directors, and the filming process that has been stormy and scandalous from the beginning, it can be said that "Monroe" has all the elements of a nightmare-level bad movie, which also makes all insiders who are familiar with the market Jennifer. Jefferson pinched a cold sweat. Could this be her first spectacular failure? Will she endure the triple mockery of box office and film reviews and awards? With these doubts in mind, I walked into the screening room, and after two hours of watching the movie, I found that Jennifer. Once again, Jefferson proved me wrong, choosing the best subject matter, the best director, and giving her best performance to date, all of which made for a masterpiece destined to be immortalized. โ
"The performance of the new director Salvi is very pleasant, his shots are full of spirit, and the use of color and storyboards is reminiscent of Weiss. Anderson, but he has a little more freedom and agility than Weiss, he can effortlessly handle the reserve and rigor of British filmmakers, and can also record the confident and passionate life attitude of American filmmakers with loving eyes, this film has completed the inheritance and sublimation of the two styles artistically, and the treatment of the story also makes people feel endless, it seems that there are infinite stories happening in the movie, Lawrence. Oliver's, Vivien Leigh's, Colin's, and, most importantly, Marilyn's story -- and the director's story, Jennifer's story, Salvi's. Tucci's very balanced handling of the relationship between the character and the actor is especially commendable in the biography, where we do not see Marilyn. Monroe, but Jennifer. Jefferson and Marilyn. Monroe's combination, her charm is higher than Jennifer, and in a way higher than Marilyn, this is a story of Marilyn and Colin, but also a tormented but still noble and passionate soul, and a fresh, pure and full of kindness, vitality between the soul of mutual attraction, Jennifer's performance transcends the boundaries of self and genre films, her beauty and charm are combined, you can't say anything more beautiful, her appearance is still her demeanor, but there is no doubt that Even if Tucci cuts the film into two and a half hours of meaningless footage, as long as Jennifer's Monroe appears, the audience will still buy tickets to enter the cinema, and maybe this is exactly Jennifer. The reason Jefferson chose him is that we haven't had a blockbuster in a long time, and I have no doubt that Jennifer's charisma will be an opportunity for audiences to step into the cinema. โ
"A truly great film should allow audiences of all levels to take what they need, the public sees good stories and beautiful characters, hardcore fans and critics see deep metaphors and complete imagery, professionals see a new shooting technique and editing methods, and this is what a cross-era film is really doing, it not only reaps box office, reputation and awards, but also brings new concepts to the film industry, pushes the industry forward, they draw nutrients from Hollywood, and make Hollywood more prosperous. And I have to admit that "A Week with Monroe" is such a great movie, and not only because of Jennifer. Jefferson proved her acting skills in it: if this was her first film, we wouldn't have paid attention to it at all, but would have thought that her amorous words and jokes were innate, and it was precisely because we had seen countless kinds of her that we could feel the terrible progress she made in this film, and her acting skills were so natural that it was hard to tell the real from the fake. - And not only because of Jennifer. Jefferson's performance left everyone speechless, brilliantly defending his Oscar-winning honor, and also because the film brought us a rookie director. If Tucci can continue to produce works of this quality, then there is no doubt that there are already people in the new generation of Hollywood who can take the lead, and for a long time, we don't have to worry too much about the aging of the masters, we know that they have successors, and the art is still alive and not dying. โ
"If I had to say, Jennifer. Jefferson is the kind of actor who will steal the show, and her excellent performances and Daniel Jeffrey's performances are the kind of actor who will steal the show. Like Day-Lewis, it is easy to forget the director's scheduling credits and only lament their excellent character-building ability. What about Tuqi? He is also the director who will steal the limelight from the actors, look at those dream-like brilliant shots, you can easily think that no matter how ugly the actor is in his camera, it will be suffocatingly beautiful, these two people who are so attractive that they are like black holes collide together, and the chemical effect can be described as magic, and you can't even believe that this is the truth: we really have such good luck to pick the best path among tens of thousands of complex possibilities, and they are 99% likely to destroy each other. But we have found a solution to the 1% solution, and we have brought such an impressive masterpiece that I hope all readers will be able to go to the cinema and watch it, no matter what your purpose is, I am sure that you will be satisfied. โ
Alan. Morrison's excitement can be seen in his brushstrokes, although his relationship with Big Dream has always been quite good, but generally speaking, compared to simply doting Jennifer. Jefferson's Roger. Albert, his comments are always a little reserved, and he has also criticized Jennifer several times, so his views are considered neutral: he is neither a Jennifer fan like Roger, nor a brainless black man who will rebel against 'Jane', Jennifer's performance is unsatisfactory, and if she is sorry for her status as a movie queen, Alan will definitely criticize and point out, and when she has bright spots, he will also affirm, but the words are usually more restrained, so for some people who care about "Monroe" Among the first batch of film critics who were invited to watch "Monroe", what they cared about the most was not the more authoritative Roger and Derek, but Alain's film reviews.
"I want all the readers to go to the cinema and watch itโ" Bell threw the newspaper on the table, "this man is crazy, literally, he must be insaneโfor God's sake, he's a well-known film critic, not a navy hired by Big Dream, and even if he wants to earn the benefits of Big Dream, he shouldn't be doing this, what is he doing, selling movie tickets instead?" โ
"Oh, Darling," said Ino, who sat across from her. Martin said softly, "I am afraid we cannot but admit that Miss Jefferson has once again achieved spectacular success, and that is no longer a matter for you to consider, and whatever she may do, what does it have to do with you?" I hope you'll focus and take a second look at your new contract, there may be a small question about the copyright of Tales of the Night......"
Bell shook her head, she was a little depressed, and she could even be said to be puzzled, angry and aggrieved and looked at the newspaper again: all this is just unfair, anyone who makes a film will fail, this is an axiom that everyone believes, and for Jennifer. As for Jefferson, she is even willing to put the standard of failure to 'just not so good, the quality is a little mediocre', she no longer fervently hopes that Jefferson will be planted in the mud, according to the difference between the two of them, if Jefferson is too angry, the cheaper will only be Scarlett. Johnson and Natalie. A little flower like Portman, Bell knows very well about it, and she is not even self-aware of it.
Hoping that Jefferson will fail, it can only be said that it is a small knot that continues from the past to the present, and it does not delay her and Jefferson to be close - but this little wish is a disappointment again and again. When Jefferson made commercial films, her commercial films were sold to the point that people couldn't say cool words, and when she acted in literary films, the box office of literary films became less like literary films, and there was no ambiguity in winning awards, so that people didn't even have room to say cool words. Jefferson's Waterloo' turned out to be good now, and judging by critics, it's another big hit in this year's awards season, and it's likely that even her previous literary films will be mediocre at the box office โ but with the word 'mediocre', the way it can be presented is not what Bell wants.
-- Derek says she 'made a jaw-dropping turn', Nancy says 'Salvi has once again discovered Jennifer's beauty, just as Columbus discovered the New World again after the Vikings, and this time, Columbus discovered her beauty -- in comparison to his films, all the directors Jennifer had met before had become savage Vikings, who had only superficially plundered the continent's riches and left the sleeping treasure with satisfaction', Richard said of her' The director who met her, Salvi made her reborn', the fifteen film critics who were invited to the preview screening for the first time, all gave five-star praise, and if you exclude the possibility of 'Jefferson casting a spell on everyone', then there is no doubt that these film critics have announced the birth of another slayer of this year's awards season: after all, Jennifer's films have always been strong at the box office, and the PR and background are not weak, if the quality of the film is really that good, then why should people not award the award to the best candidate?
It's already August, and the Austrian film has already begun its own promotional journey, and judging by the momentum of the preview screening, there is no film that can compete with "Monroe" at all, and Bell is reluctant to think about the future of "Monroe" at the Oscars, which makes her feel dizzy in her blood - she shakes her head, shakes off the useless thoughts, and pushes the newspaper back aside.
"Just a few small talks, Ino." She said aggrievedly, hinting at Ino, who was still on her side just a few months ago, wary of Jefferson's success. "Yes, I also noticed this detail, and about that, my thoughts are ......"
