Jimmy said with a depressed face: "I understand this truth, but the question is how do I tell Baker?" With such a big reputation, he took the initiative to apply, not to mention our small company that has only made two films, even Fox is embarrassed to refuse. ”

Tang Ning understands Jimmy's depression very well, it's like Zhen Huan Sun Li taking the initiative to find a small crew to ask for a role, even if he knows that it is not suitable, it is not easy to refuse, so Tang Ning pondered for a while, and then said: "You tell Baker that this 007 is not suitable for her, because the protagonist in it is not her, and there is no way to integrate her experience, unless we rewrite the entire script." But we can tailor a movie for her based on her personal experience, I believe this not only meets her requirements, but also has a perfect gimmick in publicity, and it should not lose much at the box office at that time, and the heroine of 007 is still played by Ursula Anders. ”

Jimmy's eyes lit up: "Yes, this is indeed a good idea to have the best of both worlds, I believe that if we give her face like this, she will definitely not say anything, okay, I will do this thing." After saying that, he turned around and wanted to leave.

At this time, Hepburn walked in, and as soon as he came in, he said dissatisfiedly: "Boss, as soon as I came in, I heard that you helped others write scripts, not to mention helping me write one, since "Roman Holiday", I seem to have been abandoned by the company. ”

Before Downing could speak, Jimmy took the lead in crying and said: "My Miss Hepburn, my Princess Audrey, you are now the most famous big star in the company, how can I abandon you, but your current film contract is almost two years later, how can Tony and I bear to increase your workload." ”

Hepburn frowned and said: "There are indeed a lot of film appointments, but they are all the same type of characters. I'm tired of playing a princess now, and I really want to challenge other types of roles, otherwise I'll be limited to this kind of role. ”

Jimmy soothed: "You can be content, how many people want the heroine now, and even many girls give everything, but they still don't get anything." So don't be so picky, how good it is to play a princess, you enjoy the best treatment in and out of the play. ”

Although Jimmy said so, Downing understands Hepburn's mood very well, in fact, not only her, many famous actors have such troubles after creating a classic role, such as Gregory Peck, who played with Hepburn in "Roman Holiday", is really enough to play a tall American gentleman, so he wants to act in a light comedy. Another example is Sean Connery, who just signed a contract, although he is famous for playing James Bond, but he has resolutely refused to play 007 many times in the later stage, just because he doesn't want to be limited by this kind of role, and there are more such actors who are familiar to everyone in China. Of course, in the eyes of actors who have not become famous, this is the trouble of happiness.

So after pondering for a moment, Downing spoke, "Audrey. Don't worry, I'll help you think about it. Be sure to find another good book that will give you a chance to win another Oscar. In fact, Downing already had a plan in his heart at this time, that is, he planned to help Hepburn find another classic movie "Tiffany's Morning" that almost won the Oscar.

Although he was a Hepburn fan in his previous life, there were only two movies that left a deep impression on him, one was "Roman Holiday" and the other was "Breakfast at Tiffany's". He vaguely remembered that the movie was based on a novel, but he didn't have it on hand right now, so he couldn't give Hepburn a positive answer.

But despite this, Hepburn was also very satisfied with Downing's promise, in fact, she was just complaining just now. Although she is now known as a "type actor" in the circle, for her who has a bumpy road to fame, she is already very content to have her current status and fame.

In fact, this "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is much less difficult to find than Downing imagined, because this novel published in 1958 by Random House in New York (don't look at the ordinary name, but this bookstore is a book distribution giant in the United States, and many classics are published and distributed by this bookstore), the evaluation was quite high at the time, so it can be found in the bookstore on the street, Downing roughly looked through it, and found that it was really similar to the plot in his memory, so he bought the book.

Based on Truman Capote's 1950 novel of the same name, Breakfast at Tiffanys is set against the backdrop of the anxieties and uneasiness of people during World War II, satirizing those who will do anything to get closer to high society, and reflecting on the system and dark side of society. The film has made a certain adaptation of the original book and made it into a comedy romance, of course, this is understandable, because 1961 has been more than ten years since the end of World War II, and the content of the film still retains a detailed description of people's hearts, and the complex double psychological portrayal of vanity is very successful.

Before this film, Hepburn has always been considered a type of actor, that is, a representative of innocence and elegance, but this film shows the diversity of Hepburn's performances very well, and can be said to be the most mature film of her acting skills, she perfectly combines the sensitivity, vulnerability, vanity, willfulness, elegance, innocence and innocence of the heroine Hawley, and it is very vivid and natural.

That night, after Downing was passionate with Hepburn, he handed her the book: "Baby, look at this book, if I change it into a movie, do you want to play Hawley in it?" Downing thought that Hepburn should not have read this book, but he didn't expect that as soon as he said Hawley's name, Hepburn said with a twinkle in his eyes: "Oh my God, boss, you don't want to shoot "Breakfast at Tiffany's", do you?" ”

Tang Ning nodded and said: "Yes, I think this book is very well written and very realistic, making a film like this saves them from saying that I will only make commercial films, the only thing I am worried about is that if you want to play this heroine well, it is really a test of acting skills, are you confident?" ”

Hepburn put his arm around Downing, raised his head and looked directly at him and said, "Tony, do you know why I like this book?" It's because I think there are many similarities between this Hawley's early experience and my back then, especially the part where I looked at the beautiful clothes in the window with bread, and I did this kind of thing back then, although I wouldn't be reduced to a courtesan like her, but I can understand her feelings.
