Chapter 504: Prison Storm
However, whether Leonard wants to admit it or not, Miss Evelyn who appears in the movie does have a bit of a silly and sweet taste.
Especially, when she crawled out of the pile of books, her hair was messy, and she had a little cute taste, or rather, very cute.
So, when the cute Evelyn was reprimanded by the curator of the museum, everyone was on her side.
- After all, appearance is justice!
What's more, as Evelyn retorted to the curator's reprimand, she was a person who had mastered ancient Egyptian writing, knew a lot about archaeology, and could also learn cryptography.
- Who wouldn't like such a talented and cute girl?
"Charlotte Booth is as good as ever at capturing the beauty of female characters!"
Kenneth Turan feels that he is increasingly becoming a Charlotte Booth fan.
Just like now, as soon as he saw the appearance of Evelyn, played by Rachel Weisz, he immediately realized that this was Charlotte Booth's means of quickly shaping the character of a female character.
Just like Tsui, Katrina, and Angela from his previous films.
It can be said that in addition to the fact that the main female character in "The Sixth Sense" is a mother and does not need to deliberately create a beautiful feeling, the heroines in Charlotte's other movies have been portrayed by him very beautifully, and they also have a lot of character.
- Of course, this has to exclude "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", where the main character is a child actor.
However, considering the cuteness of Hermione Granger, played by Emma Watson, a little girl in "The Philosopher's Stone", Kenneth feels that "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is not a problem.
In short, Kenneth Turan now knows a lot about the movies Charlotte has made.
"But I'm supposed to be a neutral film critic!"
Kenneth sighed inwardly.
However, looking at the funny interaction between Evelyn and her brother Jonathan on the big screen, the "neutral" film critic Mr. couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
- Although as a director, Charlotte Booth's muse has always been Charlize Theron, but this Rachel Weisz should also get a lot of benefits from his films, right?
- Just like "Hell Detective" boosted Judie Foster's commercial value.
Kenneth Turan was cranky.
In the movie, Evelyn, who discovers a simple treasure map from a gift from her brother Jonathan, an ancient hexagonal magic box, is very excited.
In particular, Hamnat, which is prominently marked in the treasure map, is the famous city of the dead.
As an archaeologist, Evelyn naturally wanted to visit there.
Together with her brother Jonathan, she encouraged the museum's curator to go on a treasure hunt, but the curator did not hesitate to refuse them on the grounds that it was too dangerous.
This disappointed Evelyn, but the somewhat dead-eyed girl didn't give up—
She pulls her brother Jonathan to find the original owner of the magic box for clues.
As a result, Jonathan took her to Cairo prison.
"Didn't you say you bought this box from Thebes?"
Evelyn looks at her brother in surprise and eventually learns that the box turned out to have been stolen by Jonathan.
The original owner of the box is now being held in prison.
"It's O'Connor!"
When Emily saw the prisoner with his hair disheveled as he was escorted out by the jailers, she immediately recognized that it was the surviving officer in the ruins of Hamnath.
"But how could he be a prisoner?"
Emily was a little weird.
Of course, this did not affect her viewing of the movie.
In the movie, Evelyn has already chatted with O'Connor through the introduction of her brother Jonathan.
O'Connor's rude words displeased Evelyn, who had a slight young lady's temper, but she pointed out that she had come to him for Hamnat, the city of the dead.
"That's where I found this magic box. ”
Evelyn doesn't know if O'Connor's words are bragging, but the other party suddenly recognizes her brother Jonathan and punches the thief who stole his things.
"This guy is rude!"
Emily muttered to herself, but Gianna on the side didn't think so,
"I think he's very manly!"
"That's because you like this kind of football quarterback, like that Steve last week — you're obsessed with him because of that pectoralis major muscle that's bigger than me, right?"
"I don't deny that. But, Emily—"
Gianna rolled her eyes,
"You killed a thousand enemies and lost eight hundred!"
"I want you to take care of it!!"
Emily looked down, her face flushed. She was about to refute Gianna again, but on the movie screen, the picturesque Evelyn was suddenly kissed by O'Connor, who was dressed as a prisoner with her hair all over her head.
"This guy is rude!"
Emily reaffirmed her previous judgment.
It turned out that Evelyn finally believed O'Connor's words and wanted to ask him how to get to the ruins of Hamnat.
But O'Connor tricked her closer, and finally kissed her, and left a sentence—
"Get me out of jail, then!"
- And Evelyn later asked the jailer to find out that O'Connor was about to be pushed to the gallows.
In desperation, Evelyn, who still wanted to go to the archaeological site of Hamnat, had to bribe the warden to let O'Connor go.
But the warden is greedy.
Evelyn bid a hundred pounds, and the answer was-
"I'll give you a hundred pounds to see him hanged. ”
This sentence made many viewers laugh, and even Robert Downey Jr., who had been analyzing film shooting techniques before, couldn't help but laugh.
"I like this guy!"
Downey thought to himself.
He suddenly felt that if he could play such a character with a sense of humor, it seemed that there was nothing wrong with making a commercial movie.
On the big screen, Evelyn is still haggling with the warden.
When she made a bid of £500, the warden wavered, but the other party still wanted to take advantage of Evelyn, which was directly rejected by the young lady's temperamental Evelyn.
So, the warden who was embarrassed and angry came directly to the sentence "execution"-
The next moment, O'Connor was hung from the gallows, his eyes protruding, and he looked like he was about to be hanged.
"It's a familiar feeling to me. ”
Seeing this scene, Donnie couldn't help but feel some empathy.
He even felt a slight pain in his neck for a moment.
In particular, seeing O'Connor still hanging in mid-air and Evelyn trying to convince the warden, he remembered the time before.
"This director Charlotte Booth must have a common language with Patrick Jane. ”
Unbeknownst to Downey, he was telling the truth to some extent...... ()
