atypical hollywood life

"I really don't want to act in a stage play. I have to repeat the same lines so many times, and I get upset when I think about it."

Margaret sighed, so Broadway is definitely not her first choice of work. The repetition day after day is simply too boring. The life she has lived for more than half a month can be said to be worse than death.The actors who play the drama are all true love.

"Yeah, the movie is NG, and the stage play is NG. After the whole show, I'm very nervous. Every time I go to the show, I'm exhausted. I'm so tired. Long-term bad work and rest schedules lead to stunted height."

Margaret is actually quite self-defeating, but she is the exact opposite of Tom Cruise's black spots.

From the Ludwig family to the Hughes family, there is no short man, no man under six feet three inches (about 1.92 meters), no woman under six feet one inch (about 1.86 meters), Of course, the woman is not less than six feet one inch (about 1.86 meters), especially referring to the Ludwig family. I don’t know if it’s because of the Viking pirates in her ancestors. Anne’s mother Greta is six feet two inches tall ( About 1.89 meters), Rudolph should really be thankful that there was no red-bottomed Louboutin in that era, otherwise even if he was six feet four inches (about 1.95 meters) tall, the picture would not be very beautiful.

She is currently the only direct female member of the Hughes family, so the future is hard to say.But Annie is six feet one inch (about 1.86 meters), Catherine is five feet eight inches (about 1.77 meters), and Lilian is five feet nine inches (about 1.8 meters). It is not difficult to draw a conclusion from these shocking data. Margaret will not be short in the future, but she is too tall to buy shoes...

Margaret can only pray that Marilyn's height will give her a little boost, not to be too tall.Think about it, once she really grows to six feet one inch, and puts on a pair of high heels on her feet, no need to hate the sky, only ten centimeters, and stand next to the male star she is cooperating with, probably no movie will look for her in the future, After all, there are not many male stars in Hollywood who are taller than six feet two inches (about 1.89 meters).

After complaining about the bad things that happened to me with my friend Xiong for a long time, Margaret rolled out of bed and headed for the kitchen. She had to bake two cakes to relieve her mood. Well, who would I give it to after baking? ?The people working in the manor have been stuffed with cakes by her for more than two months. She is really embarrassed to continue to harm them. There are two young guys who are not married. If the abdominal muscles change from eight pieces to a ball If she doesn't have a girlfriend, her crime will be serious.

The time came to the end of September when Margaret was complaining with her friends from time to time and during Broadway performances. "Interview with the Vampire" has begun a large-scale publicity, and several versions of the trailer have been cut out. Radiation, the appearances of several actors in the trailer of the film amazed the public.

Margaret's Claudia is not doing well, after all, she is just a little girl, and the big responsibility of carrying the box office cannot fall on her. There are not many shots in the trailer, and the total is less than ten. In less than three sentences, it also includes five blurred and back-view shots where the face cannot be seen at all, and a scream.

It's the three main male actors who hold the audience's interest, oh yes, the actor who plays the reporter, the average-looking Christian Slater, is completely ignored, and it's the other three that people care about.

Bearing the brunt of this is the first Louie to appear in the movie trailer, Ewan McGregor.I don't know if it was because of his Scottish origin, but even though this young man was handsome and delicate, he was still full of masculinity, and he didn't look feminine at all because of his long hair and pale face.His blue eyes always seem to be full of sadness and contradictions, making one unable to help but wonder how heavy things have tortured him to this point.

Then there is Armand played by Leonardo DiCaprio in the larval stage. Although there are not many shots, the extremely delicate face still attracts people's attention. The sharp-eyed audience has recognized this beautiful boy It's the little boy in "Growing Pains", who didn't expect to be so handsome now.

Finally, there is Mr. Tom Cruise's Lester. I have to say that this face is now at its peak. The baby fat and deliberate weight loss have made this face more chiseled. The dyed blonde hair is unexpected It suits him, the smile on the corner of his mouth directly makes the female audience watching the trailer scream in front of the TV.Most importantly, as soon as the trailer came out, the fans of the original book who were sitting in the sit-in demonstration also fell silent.They can no longer find any reason to oppose him playing Lester. At least in the trailer, Tom Cruise has Lester's temperament.

And just a week after the trailer was released, Tom Cruise's press conference dropped a depth bomb in the already undercurrent of his fans and Leicester fans.

"Tom Cruise said that he will no longer play negative roles in the future." This headline kept circling back and forth in various newspapers, showing his own sense of existence, and by the way, he did it again for "Interview with the Vampire". A wave of publicity.

As of mid-October, after more than half a month of fermentation, basically the American public knows that Tom Cruise's last movie with a non-positive role is about to be released, and even Ewan McGregor The popularity of this newcomer from the UK has also risen a lot.

The news of the death of the original author Lilian Miller, which has been released since the beginning of the year, has also been revealed again.Warner's distribution department claimed that Lilian Miller firmly believed that Tom Cruise was the best candidate for Leicester from the beginning, and supported him to play the role, and almost turned against the producer because of this. The role of Lester had a lot of communication, and Tom Cruise also flew to France to experience life for this role, living a black and white life upside down...

Roughly speaking, the main force of this wave of propaganda is Mr. Cruise.If Lilian hadn't died, this would be a commercial masterpiece under the guise of a literary film, but who told Lilian to die?This film was immediately transformed into an Olympic masterpiece, and Warner also worked hard to sell more box office.Originally, the schedule at the end of the year was full of battles. Whether it was various Olympic movies for awards or commercial blockbusters for various festivals, they were all piled up here. If there were no killer moves, how would they attract audiences?As long as you can get one nomination, you can increase the film's box office by 3000 to [-] million. If you can get another important award, the box office is likely to exceed the expected result by nearly [-] million. Even if Warner has a lot of money, it is impossible. Don't care about these dollars.Now this opportunity is great, "Interview with the Vampire" is destined to win the award, the difference is just how many, it is like giving away money for free.

And for Margaret, being too basic is all she has to say about this trailer.

Although this film does have ambiguous plots about homosexuality, generally speaking, this is not a homosexual film, it is a literary film that discusses human nature. The rotten MV blockbuster of the 21st century?Coupled with the narration commentary, "He chose a man... and gave him a daughter who is forever young..." What kind of mood is it to write this narration!It's just natural rot, okay?

Margaret completely knelt down to the staff who cut the trailer and wrote the narration.This number is too high, she is willing to offer her knees.Compared with the works of those master MV editors more than 20 years later, which can only be circulated on the Internet, the rotten MV of "Night Interview" is much more heroic. There is no ambiguous atmosphere.She no longer wanted to think about whether the person who cut this version of the trailer was a fan or a black man, so she could only give a thumbs up to this courage.

Regardless of the impact of the trailer for "Interview with the Vampire" on Margaret's mind, she still lives as she wants.

In addition to worrying about my SAT score, I went to Broadway rehearsals and performances on time, thanked the audience, and signed autographs for several Jewish old men who were about to be as old as Arthur, and listened to them talk about the days spent in the concentration camp and the time. suffering.Margaret herself felt too sad. Maybe this nation does have a bit of persecution paranoia and glass heart, but they have indeed experienced too much suffering. These old people are struggling to climb out of the dead. Survivors, like her great-grandfather, the old man who fought out of the hell in Nanjing, the suffering of the nation is too heavy, maybe you can ignore it, but you can't laugh at these old people, they have lost too much, memories may It's all they have left.

After another curtain call, Margaret returned to the backstage. Thinking that it would be over in a month or so, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Finally, half of the hard days were over, and it would be good to hold on a little longer.

Sometimes she really admires Arthur. He is worthy of being a master in the theater industry, and he has a deep enough understanding of human nature. Look at these audiences. She has been performing on Broadway for a month, and the audience is getting bigger and bigger. They are becoming more and more professional, and according to Arthur, many of them are members of the academy. Although all of them are ordinary and inconspicuous, and some of them are old enough to need help, there is no doubt that these people are the most important in the Oscars. influence far exceeds that of the general public.

There are also those film critics, one of them is a white-haired old man who looks like he is about to die. He is the current chairman of the New York Film Critics Association. After 2000, the New York Film Critics Association Awards may have gradually declined, and the overlap rate with Oscars is also high. It is getting lower and lower, but now, there is no doubt that the influence of this association award, known as the three major film critic awards in the United States, is still in full swing.
