"I'm sitting down now."

Just as Alan Morrison was full of confusion and testing the faces of his peers, a few rows behind him, Charles was lowering his head and broadcasting his actions live on the forum post, "The audience composition of this scene is a bit mixed, I saw some well-known film critics, and it seems to be Disney's top management? Ah, and the guy sitting next to Jennifer at the opening ceremony in Beijing – is her agent? He had just walked up to me and greeted a dark-skinned Arab man. ”

After a quick typing, Charles pressed the send button, glanced at the dark-haired man next door, and added, "He looks handsome, like a movie star, maybe he's a movie star, but from a country we don't know so well, I heard my agent call him Said, can anyone search for his information?" ”

After replying to a post, he refreshed the list of replies to the post, and also curled the corners of his mouth proudly: Charles officially began to enter Jennifer's rice circle from cult films, and it was not a long time before he entered the forum, but with his qualifications to go to the preview screening of "Iron Man", he quickly became a small celebrity in the forum, and when he wrote a program by himself and grabbed the tickets for the preview screening of "Monroe", it seems that he has become a powerful figure in the hearts of fans. Charles was inspired by this and was preparing to expand the scope of the program as a breakthrough point for his own business, but at the same time, he also enjoyed the feeling of waiting for Jennifer's new film with a group of professionals in the preview screening, which made him feel that he was so close to Jennifer - just now he described Said Al Nahyan in a vague way, just to create some suspense, in fact, he knew very well who this handsome Middle Eastern guy was: Abu Dhabi royal family, Jennifer's avid suitor, It is also the object of scandal alluded to by many media before, although due to his huge family power, the media did not get his details, but Charles also saw Said's figure from the photos of some small websites (he wrote a program to grab Jennifer's news), he recognized him almost at first sight, and felt cool because he was sitting with Jennifer's suitor, a billionaire, watching a movie.

"Are you a film critic? Reporter? As the movie was about to start, he stopped focusing on his phone, but turned his head and tried to talk to Said calmly, "Or like me, a lucky fan?" ”

Said gave him a friendly smile and replied with the distancing friendliness characteristic of high society, "I'd love to give you another answer, but, alas, I'm afraid I'll always be an overzealous fan in the presence of Miss Jennifer Jefferson." ”

His proper answer also made Charles feel good about him, he put away the mentality of spying on gossip, as if he really didn't know Said's identity, and told him about Jennifer's movie, "This should be a new attempt by her, she also plays a beauty in art films, if you have paid attention, you will know that Jennifer has always avoided beautiful roles in her art films - of course, there are only two - even Sally has not emphasized her beauty, I think this may be related to her lack of confidence in her acting skills, Just like Theron wants to play ugly and win the Oscar, Jennifer is also afraid that her acting skills will not overshadow her beauty. ”

"There should indeed be considerations in this regard," Said also nodded, and he said very well, "but this film cannot be regarded as a complete art film, and the commerciality should be relatively strong, after all, this is a love film, not just a biography ......"

As far as Charles's feeling is concerned, Said should be well-educated, not to mention that he is very funny, and obviously he is not the kind of ignorant and vulgar nouveau riche, and even Charles is a little ashamed of his understanding of Jennifer - not that Said has been hinting that he has a great relationship with Jennifer, but some of the performance details he talked about, the original words of the interview, are all information that Jennifer's fans can remember, if at the beginning, Charles still has some prejudices against him, then after a few words, His mind had completely shifted: Said's quest for Jennifer was certainly not a whim, or even the kind of rich tycoon's collection and pursuit of beauty, and his knowledge of Jennifer was enough to prove that this affection had lasted for some time. It can be said that Charles was even a little confused: at first he thought that Said's pursuit of Jennifer was leprosy□□ and he wanted to eat swan meat, but now he felt that if he was Jennifer, then he couldn't find any reason to refuse in the face of this rich, handsome, well-behaved, and affectionate golden beetle son-in-law.

Of course, if you think about it from another angle, even such a man can't impress Jennifer, and even such a man can only be a hopeless suitor, and can only enjoy the same treatment as fans to watch the preview screening, rather than wanting to have an exclusive screening - and most importantly, he seems to be quite satisfied with this treatment and resigned to his fate, and does not think that it has wronged him......

Charles shook his head, not knowing how to imagine it - the Arabian prince was already one of the highest ranks he knew, and according to this line of thought, how high should Jennifer go? Even if he becomes a monopoly with IT technology, there is no hope of being worthy of her in this life.

The two men chatted quite speculatively, and even exchanged K's account and ICQ number, and when the lights in the movie theater dimmed, they also tacitly terminated the conversation and turned their attention to the big screen, Charles's heart was already pounding, as if facing a long-awaited meal: no matter what the quality of the movie is, he believes that as long as the director does not miss a beat, he can at least have beautiful women to watch, and this is worth the ticket price, after all, for men, The pursuit of beauty has always occupied a very important position.

"In Salvituzi's documentary, the people are still very beautiful, and they shouldn't disappoint me." He thought with a mixture of gains and losses, watching the logo of the big dream slowly fade away, and a black letter appeared on the screen: in 1956, Marilyn Monroe's career was at its peak, she had just entered her second marriage, and just when her reputation was at its peak, she came to London to work with Lawrence Oliver on "The Dragon and the Phoenix", and this event meant a lot to a young girl......

The black letters faded, and with the gradually growing background music, the familiar melody of "Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend" sounded, Charles craned his neck expectantly, looking for Jennifer Monroe in the movement of the backup dancers, and at the same time a little curious: This should be the original film, right? Some features feel difficult to imitate, but ...... If it's the original film, how can you cut into Jennifer for a while?

Charles's confusion was quickly answered, although the director tried his best to embellish it, but some details still made Charles instinctively find some traces, he felt that except for a few shots at the beginning, the rest should be reshot versions, but they were aged - the sense of coordination of the picture, the smoothness of the shots, are incomparable to the original version, although it is just such an irrelevant content, but it also makes Charles a little more confident in the movie, There is a certain affirmation of Salvituzi, a rookie director.

"I hope he'll shoot Jennifer—"

Just as Charles thinks so, the camera spins, and with a musical variation, Monroe—Jennifer—suddenly turns around in the crowd, and the film generously gives a slow-motion close-up here, and the image quality changes from grainy film to high-definition quality with cut-shot two.

This is a very bold decision, no need to explain, the low quality is basically the own soft light effect, after getting used to the low image quality back to the high quality, it is easy to notice the defects on the face, not so delicate skin, eye bags, nasolabial folds, and crow's feet, loose muscles on the cheeks...... And Charles, who is a veteran movie fan, should have realized this and noticed the director's guts-

However, at this moment, looking at Monroe, who was fanning his eyelashes at the camera on the screen, his red lips slowly raised, a smile slowly appeared from his eyes, and finally his white teeth were revealed, and he smiled playfully at the audience, Charles couldn't say anything......

How can she be so beautiful? - This question sounds a bit shameless, but this is indeed Charles's doubts now, if his concentration is 100 points, then, 97% of the attention is now marveling at Jennifer's beauty, and the remaining 3% are wondering why: Jennifer has been famous for seven years, that is, the magazine photos have taken countless shapes, it is said that the audience should gradually feel tired of this face now, and she should also start to look old in front of the camera due to the relationship of the years, but-

But at this moment, her cheeks are still as full as a girl, her eyes are bright and pure, her skin is so soft and delicate, her smile is so light and sincere, she looks a little strange, Charles doesn't know how to describe her change, her appearance is of course still Jennifer Jefferson's look, however, in Salvi's lens, she has completely changed - there is a happy, wanton, shy, bold, wholehearted smile in the type of her smile, And this laughter is like a giant black hole, involving the eyes of the audience, and like a scorching sun burning behind her, covering her every move with a golden veil, casting a hazy halo, so that Charles can only watch her every move in amazement, repeating the question in his heart: why is she so beautiful! Why did she suddenly become so beautiful?

It took a full few dozen minutes for Charles to suddenly wake up and find himself staring at the screen, thinking almost nothing except Jennifer's beauty, and his soul seemed to be shocked out of his body by this beautiful picture - Jennifer's beauty, the beauty of every picture she was in...... Charles didn't even know what to say, his language skills were severely disturbed and he has not fully recovered until now.

"Salvi's picture is so beautiful......" An idea that had nothing to do with Jennifer finally came to his mind, Charles looked at Colin walking around the manor, and couldn't help but start to appreciate the picture instead of the plot, for him, in the first half hour of the movie, the plot was just a fog of floating shadows, so now it was difficult for him to follow quickly, so he simply gave up the plot and began to focus on appreciating Salvi's beautiful, elegant and aura shots. It seems that the media is talking nonsense, and J.J. chose him entirely because of his professional talent, and it has nothing to do with his looks - well, the colors of that scene are so beautiful, the camera positioning is also very creative, and the scenery in Salvi's lens is not only beautiful, but also fascinating and cool......"

Thinking about this absent-mindedly, seeing Jennifer appear in the camera, Charles's mind suddenly dissipated, looking at Jenny-Monroe, who had short blond hair and was wearing a white morning coat, he couldn't think effectively at all, which included men's instinct to chase beautiful women, and there was also a human instinct for the appreciation of beautiful pictures: in Salvi's composition, Monroe naturally became the only light shade in the bright and deep background like an oil painting, Therefore, it has naturally become the focus of vision, this composition that conforms to the aesthetics of human instinct will make the audience unconsciously happy and fascinated, coupled with Monroe's peerless elegance and the outstanding appearance of the young man who plays Colin, even if the whole movie does not look at the plot, just looking at the picture is charming enough, and the color, light and shadow alone have converged into a gorgeous labyrinth - Jennifer disappeared from the picture again, and Charles absentmindedly thought: An Academy Award nomination for technology must not be able to escape......

Ah, Jennifer came out again, the idea just now disappeared again, Charles tried to concentrate several times - in fact, after watching movies for so many years, Charles can be said to be a film critic who goes off the rails, usually when watching the movie, he will be more excited, judging from the comparison of famous film reviews and his own feelings, he basically watched the movie for the first time, and he could understand the director's intentions, but this time, he found that it was so difficult to concentrate, not that the story was boring, It's that it's really hard for him to get out of Jennifer's beauty - he can't even treat Jennifer as Monroe, because he hasn't entered the plot at all, and this is not to say that Jennifer is not in the play, there is no performance state, in fact, Charles gradually realized that he was fascinated by Jennifer who played Monroe. is not the usual quiet and elegant Jennifer, but an emotionally outspoken, even affectionate and sexual, loud laughter, and crying loudly Jennifer-Monroe, is the Jennifer who burns life and sex appeal from hair to the tips of her toes, exuding the desire and joy of loving and being loved, Jennifer must have changed in the process of playing Monroe, Charles even wants to use Nirvana to describe it, her laughter is simply reborn, if she was just very beautiful and charming before, The fatal attraction that she is full of now can be said to be a complete performance of Monroe's upside-down demeanor, and at the same time makes her herself so charming, even that Charles has a feeling that he is willing to give everything and just wants to continue to watch her.

When the story of the film comes to an end, the screen returns to the dark background and begins to scroll through the list of crew members, Charles rubs his sore eyes, but he finds helplessly but unexpectedly: he doesn't know what the plot is talking about, in fact, he doesn't find anything, understands anything, and remembers nothing except Jennifer's amazing beauty......

Although the film has ended, the audience did not get up immediately, and still stayed in their seats to exchange thoughts with each other, Charles noticed that several film critics were seriously pondering something, and he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed in his heart: Charles unanimously felt that film critics were a very 'money-cheating' business, in fact, he was not incompetent, and only now did he understand how far he and the professionals were - his phone was already stuffed with unread messages, and many friends were asking about the quality of the film: according to the non-disclosure agreement, He can't reveal the plot, but it's still allowed to make judgments about the quality of the plot. And Charles didn't know what to say at all...... And at this time, professional film critics may even have conceived the ending of the film review.

"How?" He turned to Said and probed the truth in a relaxed tone, "Do you think this will be a breakthrough for J.J?" ”

Seeing that Said didn't react at all, he still looked directly at the concept art of Monroe's costume in the ending song, Charles was a little more relaxed: Fortunately, it seems that it is not that his resistance is too weak, but that the enemy is too strong, and he is definitely not the only one who has been fascinated for a long time.

"What do you think?" He stopped bothering Said, but turned to the female audience on the other side and struck up a conversation, "The movie is indeed very beautiful, isn't it? ”

"Indeed," the middle-aged woman said cheerfully, "I feel like I'm going to have to watch it two or three more times before I can judge the movie itself, I've been enjoying the view for a couple of hours, and of course Jennifer — she's so beautiful in this movie, it's so distracting, if I had to write a review now, I can only praise her acting skills, there's no doubt that this movie is a new breakthrough for her, but I guess it's not what you want it to be, right?" Not saying a word about the quality of the film itself, which certainly doesn't meet your expectations. ”

The last sentence, she turned her head and said to the staff who had just walked into the screening room, judging from her smiling expression, it was obvious that she should be a well-known female film critic, and she may have a very close relationship with Da Meng.

Since the internal preview screening is not something that you can leave after the test screening, and you still need to collect feedback from the audience, many viewers are now also going to the conference room under the guidance of the staff to prepare for a post-viewing review meeting, and several film critics also stood up slowly, talking in a low voice while moving forward, after hearing this sentence, they stopped and agreed.

"Let's play it again, Judy, it's really hard to see through this movie again."

"There are still more than two hours until dinner, enough to put it again."

"Indeed, I was very interested in Salvi's camera movements......"

Listening to these chaotic and unified requirements, Charles's eyes widened, in addition to extreme surprise, his heart was also filled with a strong feeling of 'as expected', and even a feeling of satisfaction and self-satisfaction: fuck, it seems that I am not as bad as I thought, these film critics are quite high-sounding, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is not the same as him, watching j.j to see that he ignores the plot at all......
