Chapter 273: Angry Bob and Worried Harvey
Although Roland Allen has been in the industry for nine years and has participated in a total of nine films, I still think that there is still room for improvement in his acting skills, and the nature of Peter Parker and Jack Dawson is the experience of his life, and if the perfection driven by these experiences can win the award only with the naked eye, it is very unfair to other actors who have no experience related to the role, but try to frame the role itself. β
Roger Ebert, with gray hair, wears round-rimmed glasses, thinks clearly, and says clearly:
"The reason why people will be moved by Jack Dawson has a certain relationship with Roland Allen's natural performance, but more importantly, the audience can feel the emotions that the movie wants to express, and the expression of emotions is not something that Roland Allen can do alone, if there is no Kate Winslet, Roland Allen in front of the camera will definitely not be able to give the audience an obvious emotional release like Anthony Hopkins, if there is no poignant story constructed by James Cameron, people's emotions, I know that many people like "Titanic", but you can't impose the love of a movie on a certain person, which is also unfair to the other members of the main creative team......"
"I don't agree with you!"
Before Roger Ebert could finish speaking, Kenneth Turan, who was sitting across from him, interrupted, and not only that, as if trying to make his words more aggressive, he also raised his hand to unbutton his collar.
"I don't understand why it is necessary to look for the actor's past experience when determining whether an actor has successfully portrayed a role. Is there any inevitable connection between whether a role is played well or not and his own experience? If an actor is creating a character and he finds that he has experienced all this in reality, isn't this experience a valuable asset that drives him to create a character? How is it that I hear a taste of shame in your mouth? β
"Moreover, acting a normal scene deeply and resonating is not a one-person thing!"
"Acting is never a simple imitation, but an excavation of humanity! There will always be a day when you get tired of watching the story, but human empathy is eternal! It can bring the audience in, find the feeling, and the mood constantly changes with the situation of the character, this is success! β
"This success is truly for everyone! But the perfection that contributes to collective success belongs to the individual! β
"Besides, love is originally a matter of two people, Kate Winslet can win the award, why can't Roland Allen? The performance of the two of them is an indispensable whole, and forcibly dividing it can only prove that they are jealous! β
With that, Kenneth Turan slapped the table with his hand.
The dull sound is like the final word at the auction, and it is full of momentum.
In the face of his forced gaze, Roger Ebert took a deep breath, as if he wanted to ignore the dirty water that was splashed, but it was more like he was told to the sore spot, and it took about three or five seconds before he spat out in a refined tone: "I'm not jealous......"
However, this 'cowardly' response made Kenneth Turan even more aggressive, "You're jealous!" β
Aggressive accusations and defensive elegance make the dark room even more eerie.
In the huge room, only the TV against the wall flickered.
Under its illumination, on the corresponding sofa, a fat body is even more unpredictable.
When cutting to Roger Ebert, the blue light from the dark suit makes the expressionless guy look gloomy, and when cutting to Kenneth Turan, the snow-white of only the shirt is worn and the bloodless fat head and big ears are reflected very clearly.
But no matter how the light changed, this unclean guy with a beard didn't smile after the TV was turned on, staring straight at the screen, and the blankness seemed to take away his vitality.
Seeing that Kenneth Turan on the TV was about to 'fight' with Roger Ebert, the host also held up the NBC microphone to end the debate that could not be discussed with a result, and when he heard the host say, 'Roland Allen has been nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor along with Matt Damon, Robert Duvall, Peter Fonda, and Dustin Hoffman, and the Oscars will be held on the night of March 23', the guy on the sofa finally made a move.
On the extremely stiff face, there were convulsions, and with the twitching of the dough, the apple muscles on the right side of the face also bulged.
The mouth opened slightly, revealing a thin slit the size of a finger, and the smile that was uglier than crying revealed his mood at the moment.
Before he could vent all the depression in his heart, the click of the lock suddenly appeared, and then, an equally fat figure squeezed in the door, and when he saw the figure on the sofa, the words of happiness also sounded.
"Oh! Harvey! I've finally found you! β
"Why don't you answer my phone? I'm almost annoyed by them, okay? β
"Helena Carter and Judi Dench called you and couldn't find them, and then they called me and asked me to tell you that they themselves voted for Kate Winslet and Roland Allen, so you don't run for them!"
"And Minnie Deeper! She wondered if it was possible for Roland Allen and Kate Winslet to hit Best Supporting Actress with Roland Allen and Kate Winslet locked in Best Actress? β
"Also, those PR agencies told me that their PR mission for the year was done! They can still go with PR if you want, but they don't guarantee any results! β
"Oh my God! Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Why did this happen all of a sudden! β
"There were originally four acting awards, and we had the opportunity to take three of them! Right now! Right now! β
At this point, Bob Weinstein, whose chest was heaving, stomped his feet hard, and his angry appearance was like a powder keg wearing a green hat, and when he found that his complaint did not attract his brother's attention, this guy directly ripped off the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, crossed his hands on his waist, and glared at him: "Isn't it? Harvey! Are you listening to me? β
"Our business is ruined!!"
A loud roar made Harvey Weinstein roll his eyes.
The fat man sitting on the sofa glanced at his brother, then lifted the back of his neck and tapped the TV with his chin.
This situation made Bob frown in confusion, and when he turned his head to check, he found that the picture on the TV was NBC's rolling list of programs, and in the translucent studio, when Roger Ebert and Kenneth Turan were sorting out the data files, his head, as if he had been hit by Thor's hammer, was stunned for two seconds, sighed, and sat down helplessly.
As he moved, the bouncy couch shook twice, and Harvey trembled for half a moment.
At the end of '97, after learning that Jack Nicholson and Helen Hunter's "Perfect" chose to move gears, the Weinstein brothers felt that this year's opportunity had come - if Jack Nicholson didn't rush for the award, wouldn't the award for actor be vacant? Helen Hunter doesn't rush for the award, the award of the actress, isn't that just handy?
plus Robin Williams, who gave up the actor and sprinted for the best supporting actor with "Soul Catcher......
and the best supporting actress in the most confusing situation......
They're Miramax this year, and there's a good chance they're going to win!
After seeing the situation, the fat pig brothers began to encourage the guy who has a chance to win the prize this year.
The focus of public relations is their best Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress!
But when Harvey communicated with Helena Carter, Judi Dench, and Minnie Driver briefly, confirmed their willingness to win the prize, and collected the prize fee, and began public relations lobbying, the scolding war related to Roland appeared in a huge and abrupt manner......
If at the beginning, Harvey didn't understand the situation, and simply thought that after Roland didn't win any awards, Kenneth Turan deliberately published topics to attract people's attention and attract attention in order to hold stinky feet, then when the overwhelming comments swept the entire America like a bombardment, the voice of scolding his mother was like a tsunami, and he spit out hard......
Is this special mother rushing to the Olympics?
Which one needs to toss such a big battle for the Olympics??
This is clearly showing off his muscles to his peers in the circle!!
After so many years in the film industry, Harvey has seen this kind of formation for the first time.
And when he saw the list of nominees for Best Actor this year, he felt powerless.
"Matt Damon was discovered by us, but he has a very good relationship with Robin Williams......
"Robert Duvall helped Steven with Jaws back then ......"
"Peter Fonda, though not familiar with Steven, is a student of Roger Koeman......"
"Not to mention Dustin Hoffman......"
"There are five candidates in total, and the other three who have the right to vote can vote for him?"
"Then what else are we doing with PR?"
When the whining sounded, Bob Weinstein immediately turned his head.
What caught my eye was my brother with a confused face.
After hearing the angry words, he hurriedly whispered: "We didn't plan to publicize the Best Actor at the beginning. β
Similar to pointing out the subject, but more like a word of blame, it ignited Harvey's temper.
"But the nature is the same!" He yelled.
"Five Best Actresses! Judi Dench, who was nominated for "Mrs. Brown", Julie Christie, who was nominated for "Wife Swap", and Helena Kate, who was nominated for "Pigeon Wings", are all from the British Gang! You yourself said that Judy and Helena are not rushing to the Olympics! Doesn't that prove that the basic plate of the British gang is also knowingly voting? β
In addition to the three of them and Kate Winslet, the last person to fill in is Jodie Foster, who was nominated for "Chrono Contact"! Not to mention that she already has two Oscars, just Martin Scorsese taught her how to be a director, she knows how to vote! β
"There are five candidates in total, and the four contestants who have the right to vote will vote for their opponents?"
"You tell me! How else can we play this game! β
Harvey patted the sofa excitedly, and when he turned his head to look at his brother, tears were already flashing in his eyes.
He wanted to cry.
He really wanted to cry.
has been playing in the game Oscar for so many years, and for one award, he can operate two places at the same time.
Originally, it was 20 percent of the odds, but when he operated it like this, it was 25 percent.
Coupled with some off-the-board tricks and rushing for an award, there is still a 40% chance of success.
But what about now?
On the side of the Best Actor, either you can't get it, or you already have something you don't care about; On the side of Best Actress, the British Gang, who found out that the Jewish Gang was helping their own people to rush to the Olympics, automatically turned back, and the one who filled the position was still the one who had won two......
It's not one out of five, it's one out of one!
The odds of Roland and Kate are 100%!
That's a seventeen-card second man!
He has been in operation for twenty years! A fantastic lineup that has never been expected before! And so it appeared!
The point is that this kind of lineup is not built by himself, but by others themselves!
Bob Weinstein, who was still very uncomfortable because he lost his business, was yelled at by his brother like this, also calmed down.
Looking at the brother who wanted to cry without tears, he raised his hand and patted the other party's shoulder.
He could understand his brother's feelings.
Since Roland 'bought' the filming rights of "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" from them, they have already held a grudge against Roland, but there is no way, grudge is hate, and revenge is not mentioned at all.
Because they know that they can't beat others......
And what makes them happy is that, like Spielberg, Roland only focuses on business, and they only do awards, and they can't play together, so their small life is still quite nourishing.
In particular, last year saw the launch of The British Patient.
The selection of the best film made them in the limelight for a while.
But now it's such a fuss......
They suddenly found out that their hometown had been raided!
Everyone believes that Roland's momentum this year is absolutely impossible to replicate for the second time, but the problem is that the award is about a resource, and Roland can be so extravagant to win two awards, so if he is in the business of winning awards in the future, the guy who wants to win the award will definitely prefer his family, not for anything else, just because of the cow beep of resources!
Previously, Miramax was the first choice for many guys who wanted to win awards.
Now, their influence has taken a big hit.
And this kind of loss is difficult for Bob to accept.
But just when he was ready to comfort his brother and try to tell him that Roland, a big bastard who can only hold his legs, may never get involved in the Olympic industry for the rest of his life, Harvey, who was angry and roaring before, suddenly returned to his helpless appearance, and said with heartache: "Roland's behavior in the Olympic field has greatly hit my reputation in the Olympic field. β
"You know what was going through my head when I was watching NBC's debate show just now?"
"If I let the actresses consciously climb on the red sofa in the future, those girls may ask me before they climb the couch, 'Can I be the next Kate?' β
"How do I answer that?"
"Kate slept Roland and instantly became a winner in life."
"The Golden Ball is here, the Oscars are there, the point is that Roland is still young, rich, and handsome!"
"The other girls slept with me and ended up getting nothing, who wants?"
"Those girls didn't dare to beep with me before, and that's because they thought I was a cow!"
"But now Roland has proved that my resources are garbage!"
"How else can I coax those girls in this situation?"
"I told them, climb on my red couch and I'll make you a big star?"
"Do you think they'll believe it?"
"I dare to swear, after the Oscars, the rumors in the circle will not be to please me and have a chance to ascend to the sky in one step, but to get rid of Roland, and I can directly gain fame and fortune! A girl with a little insight will lose interest in me! Because they would rather replace Kate than climb on my red couch! In their eyes, Kate is also a girl who has taken shit luck! Since she can eat Roland to death, then they can try it, maybe there is a chance! β
When Harvey shouted out the words in his heart with a disappointed face, Bob, who wanted to comfort him, was stunned.
WhatthefuckοΌοΌοΌ
You are sad and uncomfortable, not because the business is ruined, but because the business is ruined and affects your status in the minds of those flesh and blood, and you can't become their emperor, and you are sad and uncomfortable?
FuckyouοΌ
"Oh! My dear brother! Are you still thinking about women now? β
Bob was furious, "Our business is ruined!" Don't you have any ideas? β
"I have an idea! But it can't be helped! β
Hearing his younger brother shout like this, Harvey also pulled his neck and shouted to his younger brother, "We are making independent films, and our influence in the industry is not as good as those that make commercial films!" If you can't make it to the box office record list, you are inferior! In the past, those guys wanted to win the prize, so they would please me, and now the group of people who know the most about business want to vote, so will anyone pay attention to me? β
"If no one pays attention to you, then forget it?" Bob's eyes widened.
An angry Harvey glared back, "Otherwise! β
After staring at each other for two seconds, the unwilling Bob sighed, "Even if this year's business is ruined, won't we still be able to continue to prepare for next year's film?" "Shakespeare in Love" is our main movie next year, right? β
"You're telling me to dive Gwyneth?"
Harvey gave his brother a blank look, "Do you believe that she dared to run to Steven's cry when she turned around?" β
Hiss......
Bob gasped, he was almost by his brother, "Do you only have women in your head?" β
"You're going to die at the hands of a woman!"
"Dead at the hands of a woman?"
Upon hearing this, Harvey sneered, "I'd rather be an emperor for a day than a commoner for a lifetime." β
"It's not a big deal to lose to Roland, as long as it doesn't affect my status as the king of independent films."
"You'd love to put in the work and prepare for Shakespeare's love story?"
"I'm the opposite of you, I just want to know what is going on in Roland's head!"
"As long as he doesn't get involved in the Olympic field, I can even lose to him in Shakespeare!"
That's right, Xavi doesn't care about winning or losing.
How many girls has he promised and how much help has he given over the years?
He never cares about momentary gains and losses, he only cares about whether his influence will be damaged!
Now, he is afraid that Roland's head will twitch and start the business of rushing to the Olympics.
After all, Roland is a guy with a criminal record, and the films that Warcraft Film and Television bought before were all independent films!
And if Roland knew what Harvey was thinking, he would definitely want to cry without tears.
Chong Ao, whoever likes to do it!
Because if you want to hide it, it's really not easy!
He feels that he has used all the best acting skills in his life to 'deceive' people!
