Chapter 148 The Trouble of Being Popular
"You acted really well, you really brought this scene to life!" Cameron exclaimed, the performance just now really exceeded his expectations, he never expected Eve's performance to be so perfect, he really saw Penny -The existence of Lynn.
"Almost Famous" is his semi-autobiographical film, the script is mainly based on his life experience, supplemented by drama.No one knows whether Cameron has actually met a girl named Petunia Lane in reality, only he knows best.
In fact, Cameron has never seen the scene where Penny dances alone. This clip in the script is completely written by him instead of dancing alone. Eve sublimates it.
Eve is by no means a professional dancer. Her three-legged cat dance just now didn't even qualify for the campus dance competition. She is just an ordinary person who has never had any dance training, playing casually.
After filming like this, Cameron is sure that Penny Lane will become the new goddess in the hearts of thousands of viewers!
After hearing the director's praise, Patrick, who was quietly watching at the backstage entrance, was a little puzzled. He turned his head and glanced at Keanu: "Mr. Reeves, Miss Campbell didn't seem to act in anything just now, why did the director praise her?" Woolen cloth?"
Patrick's acting experience is extremely limited, and he can't understand it at all.He also had the script, and he knew that there was only one sentence to describe this scene, but he didn't say that the character of Penny Lane would dance alone and have sex on the empty stage alone!
Keanu has recently studied with Kominsky for a long time, and his theoretical knowledge has gradually become stronger. Coupled with his years of experience in Hollywood, he can see some tricks.
"Excellent performances are not necessarily tense and outgoing. A relaxed performance like hers is actually even rarer. She completely put herself into the role. The performance without lines is the most difficult performance."
Previously, Eve's performance was purely blending emotions into her own understanding, giving Petunia Lane a soul!
Patrick half-understands, but it sounds very powerful anyway.
Really consistent with the previous idea, enthusiastic live rock performances, after the bustling and desolate, there will be chaos everywhere, just like the situation of the Still Water band now.
When they become more and more commercialized and forget their original intentions, only a shell full of holes remains under the gorgeous appearance.
Cameron let the actors go to rest, and he played back the previous performances of Eve and Keanu over and over again. These two people can always bring surprises.
Suddenly I don't want to give them a holiday, how good it is to finish shooting the following content in one go!
Actors, like athletes, actually pay attention to a state.Now that the performance is in a good state, let's shoot at one go, otherwise this mysterious and mysterious feeling will disappear.
A male supporting role and a female supporting role took time off to participate in the Oscars, and the only thing the crew could film was William, his family, legendary music critic Lester and the group of people from the editorial department of Rolling Stone magazine.
"I really don't want to leave. It would be great if the filming could be completed sooner." Eve discussed with her boyfriend in a low voice, "Anyway, I didn't nominate for an Oscar."
"Do you want to go back to Los Angeles?" Keanu asked, anyway, he must go back, the organizers have announced the lineup of award presenters two days ago, if he doesn't go, he might not be followed by the judges of the academy people into the blacklist.
Eve spread her hands, "I'm just thinking about it, how could I not go back. Clothes, jewelry, and makeup have all been arranged, so I can't be too capricious."
CAA even helped her and Keanu to determine the time for the two to walk the red carpet. The schedule has been handed over to the red carpet broadcaster and the organizer to ensure that they will be taken care of and interviewed by the live camera when they appear on the stage.
Don't look at it as a one-minute thing, there is a lot of preparation behind it.
"I will strive to really participate in the next Academy Awards, and I will come back even if I am filming in Australia."
"Next year is still too early, I just hope that the filming of this movie will be completed smoothly." Eve sighed, this year's shooting tasks on her are really too heavy, and she hardly has much free time.
Now the crew of "Mulholland Drive" is ready to resume work, and the first batch of investment is in place. Because the heroine Eve is not around, David Lynch decided to shoot some plots that have nothing to do with her, which will save time.
All the plots related to Eve are piled up until March before shooting, so that there is no need to wait for her schedule, after all, the rest of the actors also have to live and work.
That is to say, after she finishes filming "Almost Famous", she will immediately devote herself to the movie "Mulholland Drive", and the break in between may only be a few days.
Fortunately, these plots and plots have been deeply imprinted in her mind. She has filmed it once before, and when the time comes, reviewing the script and the performance of the TV series version can play a role in checking for gaps and filling in gaps.
That's actually not too difficult.
The hardest part is "Reaper 2".
Both Robert and Eve had previously agreed to guest stars in New Line Cinema's sequel, provided the schedules could be coordinated.
As a result, now that New Line Cinema sees Eve's sudden popularity, they regret it a bit. The cameo role is far from enough, and they even want to return the role of Claire to the leading role!
For this reason, the screenwriters did not hesitate to rewrite the script, and at the same time they were discussing with Eve.
"Death Comes" is a big hit at the box office around the world, and the disc sales and on-demand revenue continue to rise. The role of Claire is even more popular than the leading actor Alex.
New Line Pictures did not hesitate to offer her a salary of 300 million US dollars, just to let her return.
However, neither Robert nor Eve plans to star in a sequel. A sequel to a horror movie will also change the main behind-the-scenes team, which is unreliable no matter how you look at it.
What's more, Eve finally jumped out of the small-budget horror film and has a wider world, so why would she want to go back!
Not only is it not allowed emotionally, but it is also impossible to arrange time.
New Line Cinema intends to continue to release it during the Halloween schedule, but Eve still has "Legal Blonde" to be filmed in the first half of the year, and there is not enough time left for "Death Comes".
It's not impossible to directly refuse, the main reason is that Eve still wants to continue to cooperate with New Line Pictures, and the film adaptation rights of "The Notebook" are still in the hands of this company.
She really didn't expect that she would be able to taste the troubles after becoming popular so soon.The project that was clearly negotiated has to be changed. The point is not to let myself be replaced, but to arrange a heroine position.
If this trouble is spoken out, it will really make the actors in Hollywood envy and hate.
The advantage of having an agent is that these troubles will be pushed to him, and Robert will find a solution.
Eve finally has the qualifications to choose the script in Hollywood, and it is no longer the script and the crew who choose her.
In the lounge, Keanu was checking the stock market with a heavy laptop, and Eve over there had just sent an email.
"Bourne's Identity" has been bought for so long and finally finished watching. She likes Mary in it very much, a non-vase character in spy movies, which is too rare and rare.
It might be inappropriate to wait for others to come to your door. Eve is taking the initiative to write down her love and understanding for and about Mary, and then send it to director and project leader Doug Liman.
At the beginning, she knew about this project at the alumni association of USC Film Academy. Although she has been very excited, she still waited until now to speak up. She has more knowledge and understanding of Byrne and Bourne.
Anyway, the movie is still in the preparatory stage, and I don't know when it will start, even if the fight fails, it won't have any impact.
Just after she finished sending, she heard her boyfriend say, "Honey, haven't you sold the stocks you bought before? Today the S&P 500 index fell sharply, and the Dow Jones index and the Nasdaq index both fell for several days. Many technology The company's stock prices are plummeting, and some companies that have just been listed have fallen below the issue price!"
"Really? I haven't been paying attention to the stock market lately."
Eve quickly sat next to her boyfriend, staring at the various data and curves above.
The green color of the U.S. stock market represents the rise, and the red represents the decline. Now it looks like the whole market is red on the computer!
Not only high-tech companies and Internet companies, but also some other entities and industrial companies have been affected, but the decline is not so severe.
"It seems more serious. If you don't sell it, please inform your stock manager!" Keanu himself rarely touches stocks, and the investment of film remuneration is relatively scattered, so it has not been affected much.
Eve showed a relaxed smile, "Thank God, I emptied my account three weeks ago, because the increase at that time has made me very satisfied."
Although the selling point was not at the peak at that time, she made a lot of money after calculation. She was relatively small in courage and endurance. She felt that she had made a lot of money and quickly withdrew it. She was safe and did not continue to chase the high point. .
It is precisely because of such cautious thinking that she escaped the catastrophe smoothly, so that she would not lose money or even lose everything.
"Wow, it seems that your timing is really good." Keanu is also relieved, he is afraid that his girlfriend will lose too much money and cause depression and discomfort.
Eve said proudly: "Of course, I'm a small stock speculator. If you follow my pace, you may not make much money, but you shouldn't lose much."
She really didn't say big things. She remembered the global financial crisis in 2008, and it would be almost enough to sell the stocks a year in advance.
"I listened to your suggestion and made a $500 million investment in Netflix, an online rental company. I don't know if they will be affected by this stock market crash."
Netflix was not listed at all at this time, and it was just a new company with less than 50 registered users. Compared with the traditional movie rental company Blockbuster, it was not worth mentioning.
Eve's eyes lit up. She didn't expect Keanu to really listen to it. To be able to invest in Netflix in the early days of its founding, the shareholding must not be small!
Although it will definitely be continuously diluted in the future, if it can last until the 10s, these shares will be quite valuable!
Perhaps he earns more than Keanu's hard work acting in movies all his life.
"I think Netflix's model is pretty good. Their survival as a new company and business proves that this online rental model is correct."
"Yeah, hopefully we're on the right side of history."
Eve was very envious, and invested 500 million US dollars as soon as he said he would invest. He received so much envy and made a fortune in the stock market, but his total assets were still not 500 million.
Knowing that there is a golden mountain in front of us, but unable to mine it, it feels a bit uncomfortable!
