I’m in Hollywood
Chapter 20 Test Film Meeting
Although everyone in the screening room, including Aniston, who was not involved in the filming, clearly knew the specific content of Home Alone, but as the plot progressed, especially during the process of Kevin's evil of two stupid thieves, the screening There were bursts of laughter in the hall, and even a man in his fifties like Jeffrey Hansen couldn't help laughing.
The one hour and forty minute movie ended involuntarily, the last line of subtitles was over, and everyone stood up and clapped together.
I have to say, this movie is really great, Eric, I think I should congratulate you in advance. Jeffrey Hansen patted Eric on the shoulder and said seriously.
Thank you, Jeffrey, and, thank you, everyone, without your help, I would never have completed Home Alone in just half a month.
Everyone greeted and touted each other for a while, and then gradually dispersed, after all, everyone has their own business. They had planned to hold a small celebration party, but unfortunately Eric gave up the idea consciously after seeing Eric's unshaven and tired face. Eric has overdrawn too much energy in the past two weeks, and everyone knows him Need a good rest.
The next step is to contact the release of the movie. Tomorrow is the test film of Return to Seventeen. Eric thinks this may be an opportunity to sell Home Alone to 20th Century Fox for distribution. He believes that as long as When the executives of Twentieth Century Fox saw this film, they would definitely agree to their distribution plan, even if they gave up some of the share in the end, after all, he has no foundation yet.
Maybe it will be easier to sell Home Alone after Return to Seventeen is released, but it must have passed even the New Year by then. As a Christmas comedy, it is definitely not a good choice to release it at other times. It can't wait until next year. Well, he has put in so much effort, and seeing that the success of the plan is just around the corner, he doesn't want to delay it for a year.
Only Aniston, who had a temporary driver's license, drove Eric's car back to Eric's house. Eric put the copy of the film and explained to Aniston. Open your eyes.
Aniston originally wanted Eric to take a shower and then go to sleep, but seeing Eric, who had fallen into a deep sleep and still had a clearly tired look on his face, he could only sigh in distress and took off his clothes and shoes. Got down, covered Eric with a blanket, and turned to leave the bedroom.
Eric's house was crowded with dust because it had not been cleaned for more than half a month. Aniston rolled up his cuffs and found tools to start cleaning. In Friends, Rachel is a pampered girl who doesn't know how to wash clothes when the washing machine is placed in front of her, but in reality, Aniston has long been self-reliant.
On the desk in the study, Aniston picked up a thick copy of The Basic Theory of Music, wiped the dust on the table with a rag, and suddenly a document slipped out of the book in his hand. Curiously, Aniston picked up the document and found it was a house pawn agreement.
...
I don't know how long it took. At noon, it seemed that Aniston asked if he wanted to eat, but Eric refused in a drowsy state, and then fell asleep again. When he woke up, the bedroom was already dark.
Reaching out his hand to touch the bedside lamp skillfully, after turning it on, Eric looked at his watch, it was past nine o'clock in the evening.
Annie should have left, Eric thought, put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom, and vaguely heard the sound of the TV playing in the living room.
Walking down the stairs, I saw Aniston watching a TV series curled up on the sofa with a pillow in his arms.
Hi,
Annie, good evening. Eric walked over, attached himself to Aniston and kissed him on the cheek.
You're awake, Eric, go take a bath, and I'll make you something to eat.
Eric didn't notice the strangeness on Aniston's face, and turned around and walked to the bathroom. Back on the sofa again with a prepared dinner in front of him.
Oh, Annie, I'm really surprised that you can make Chinese egg fried rice, um, it's delicious. Eric took a sip and praised.
You said you liked it, and I learned it on purpose. Aniston looked at Eric who was devoured with a smile on his face, and patiently waited for Eric to finish before he said, Eric, are you? ...Did you mortgage the house?
Eric was about to send the cutlery back to the kitchen when he heard Aniston's words and raised his head in confusion. He didn't tell anyone about it, how did Aniston know about it?
When I was helping you clean the room, I just saw this fall out of a book. Facing Eric's suspicious gaze, Aniston took out the pawn document from under the coffee table.
Eric had to put down the cutlery, took a look at the document, nodded and said, The filming fund for Home Alone is still short of 200,000, so I had to mortgage the house.
That, the piano in the study... Aniston had been to Eric's house a few times before and liked the Strauss piano very much.
Eric nodded again.
Aniston frowned in distress: Eric, I think you are too impulsive. Although everyone thinks Home Alone shown today is good, if you fail, you may go bankrupt at any time.
Eric got up and sat beside Aniston, put Aniston in his arms and said, Don't worry, Annie. You see, a few months ago, I was just a penniless high school student, and it's only a few months now, I've successfully published my own novel, wrote a script, starred in a male lead, and now made a movie. How many people at my age can do this? So, even if it fails, I believe that with My strength is still able to stand up again easily. We are still so young, of course we have to go all out to fight a few times, whether we succeed or fail, at least we have cried and laughed. Otherwise, when we are old and gray-haired, When I recall my life, it was bland and calm, like a small meteorite in the sky that didn't even draw a ray of light, what a pity it would be.
Oh, Eric, it's so... charming when you say that, I think you're just trying to seduce me, you bastard. Aniston couldn't help but raised his face and kissed Eric on the lips.
Eric wrapped his arms around Aniston's waist and kissed back passionately
Aniston felt the presumptuousness of Eric's hands, and did not stop it as he did in the car last time. Instead, he hugged Eric's waist tightly, his pretty face blushed and his eyes narrowed slightly.
...
The morning sun hit her face, Aniston's eyelashes trembled, and she turned over subconsciously to avoid the disturbing light, but this inadvertent movement tugged at a wound somewhere, and the girl opened her eyes instantly in pain. After being confused for a few seconds, Aniston quickly remembered what happened last night. While his face was slightly red, he also resentfully thought of the bad guy who tossed him so badly. He just turned his head to look for it and found that there was only one left on the bed. It made Aniston a little sad to be alone. What girl doesn't want to wake up in the arms of her caring boyfriend.
Some grievances had just begun to ferment, Eric walked into the bedroom with a dinner plate, saw Aniston who had woken up, and said with a smile, Hi, baby, good morning.
Aniston pouted and said, It's not good at all, you bastard.
Okay, I apologize. In order to express my apology, I deliberately spent an hour making delicious pork ribs soup for you.
No, I'm still losing weight.
Today's situation is special, so forget about losing weight for the time being. Come, how about a taste?
Well, I haven't brushed my teeth yet?
Eric put the tray on the bedside table, lifted the quilt and picked up Aniston: Her Royal Highness must be inconvenient to move, I will carry you.
Disgusting, Wearing only one of Eric's oversized shirts, the radiant Aniston groaned like a coquettish child, and submissively allowed Eric to pick him up from the bed.
After the warm breakfast, Aniston could only ask the convenience store owner for leave again because of the inconvenience of movement. For this kind of thing, the convenience store owner seems to have become accustomed to it. Many young people who dream of working in Los Angeles will take time off from time to time to go to some production crews. By chance, the convenience store owner also knew that Aniston was one of them, so when Aniston accepted the job, the two parties had already reached an understanding.
The two were tired and crooked for a while, and Eric had to drive away from the house. Today happened to be the audition for Return to Seventeen. He wanted to try and see if he could handle the release of Home Alone by the way.
At about ten o'clock in the morning, dozens of people, including the publicity department of the distribution department and the representatives of the filmmakers, gathered in the luxurious screening hall of 20th Century Fox. James Brooks, the producer of Return to Seventeen, and director Penny Marshall And some other unannounced leading actors also came to the scene.
Before the movie airs, Eric goes to James Brooks and Penny Marshall, asking them to help introduce the director of Twentieth Century Fox distribution.
Eric, you mean, you want your small-budget movie to be released on Christmas Day? James Brooks was a little surprised, he also knew through others that Eric had finished Return to Seventeen. , I made a movie myself, and I didn't expect it to be completed so quickly.
Yes, James, it's a very funny Christmas comedy, so it's best if it's on Christmas Day. It's definitely not suitable for other times.
James Brooks was a little disdainful in his heart. Although he has been surprised by this boy many times since he knew Eric, he absolutely does not believe that Eric, a newcomer, can make any interesting comedy movies. Actors can also be said to be talented, but if a director can't play with talent, it takes years of experience to accumulate. However, out of face, he still agreed to help introduce him.
