[US Entertainment] Superstar

Chapter 277

Media praise is very important. These newspapers have a circulation of millions, and many viewers choose which movie to watch based on the recommendations of film critics.

Although the Internet has made considerable progress, it has not entered the era of mobile Internet after all.

The promotion methods of a movie are still relatively traditional, that is, TV, magazines, newspapers, offline advertising spaces and online reports, etc.

Even if film critics scold a movie fiercely, it is advertising for it in disguise.

Many people even want to see how bad a bad movie can be.

Now "Almost Famous"'s word-of-mouth among the audience and the media has exploded, and this is completely adding chips to the film's Olympic bid.

Of course, Oscar likes art movies, but he loves art movies that can drive business even more, which is a big bonus.

With a North American box office of 2000 million US dollars, the North American box office in [-], and the high ratings, it is very likely that the film will win the ultimate award - the Best Picture Award.

In fact, Oscar is taking a route called "both refined and popular", which not only wants to satisfy professionals, but also wants to be recognized by the audience.

Almost every year, the best film is the topic of the year, which can satisfy both critics and audiences, and the box office is definitely not low.

For example, "The Silence of the Lambs" ranked fifth, "Schindler's List" ranked fourth, "Forrest Gump" ranked second, "Shakespeare in Love" and "American Beauty" both ranked ninth. As for "Titanic", let alone directly number one in the world.

It can be said that now is the best time. In a few years, the best film will be separated from ordinary audiences.

In the past, movie fans would say that they deserved their names when discussing movies, but later it became more and more difficult to convince the public. It was difficult for the general public to accept the best picture winners, which led to the diminishing influence of Oscars year by year.

If the film can win the best picture, then it will definitely not fail in the other awards. Otherwise, it would be too ugly to only win the top award alone.

The high degree of completion of the movie is also helpful to the actors.

CAA's plan for them is very simple. Eve is aiming for awards, and Keanu is aiming for nominations. The time and energy that the two need to invest are different.

Today is the first public announcement. Thanks to the influence of the film and the fame of the two actors, they directly appeared on the talk show with the highest ratings.

I had met with Oprah backstage beforehand, but the black woman didn't talk much, the two sides just exchanged simple greetings.

"In the 70s, rock music was popular all over the world, and new rock bands emerged in endlessly. A boy in his teens got a job from Rolling Stone magazine to cover the whole tour of Still Water. During the tour, the boy and female rock fans And the band's guitarist created enough of a bond for us to welcome Almost Famous stars Keanu Reeves and Eve Campbell!"

At this time, when Oprah announced the guest list under the gaze of the audience and the cameras, the audience immediately stood up, cheering and screaming, the atmosphere was very good!

Eve has already put on high heels at this time, her dress looks very beautiful, but without losing her temperament.

Keanu stood by and waved towards the audience. He obviously already had a girlfriend, but the audience still wanted his body, their faces were flushed with excitement, and they wanted to rush straight up.

The camera was even specially used to capture the excited expressions of the audience, and the screams probably exceeded Mariah Carey's vocal range.

Oprah and Allen's shows are mainly women. Keanu, a heartthrob, is naturally extraordinary. The point is that they are also very enthusiastic about Eve, and they like this young, beautiful and intelligent girl very much. .

Oprah joked to the audience, "Are you done screaming?"

"Not yet..." The audience replied in unison. Seeing the rare public appearance of this couple, they could not wait to burst their throats!

Eve stepped forward to hug Oprah and performed a face-to-face ceremony, and said in a slightly excited tone: "Nice to meet you, I actually came to this show."

"This is your first time here, Eve, right? Keanu, it should be your second time. Please sit down, let's sit down and talk."

Oprah held the card in her hand, with a warm smile on her face. Many guests would be confused by this smile, and thus be dug out of all kinds of exciting things.

"I've been here many times in my dreams." Eve joked.

This remark made the audience and Oprah couldn't help laughing, people with high emotional intelligence are always liked.

On the one hand, her answer answered Oprah's question, indicating that it was indeed her first time to come, but she had dreamed of being on this show before, expressing her love for Oprah's show.

"Actually, I went to the cinema to watch this movie yesterday. It was really a good movie. It reminded me of the madness of that era and the dedication of rock bands to music. Your performance in the movie is really great .”

"Thanks, now I'm a little drifting."

Oprah looked at the two people on the opposite side of the sofa, and asked, "Keanu, the guitarist you played in the movie performed on stage. It is said that there is no substitute, and all the pictures are taken by yourself, right?"

The main reason is that Keanu was basically silent after he came to power, so he threw the first question to him, and he couldn't neglect a certain person.

As soon as he talked about this matter, Keanu was very proud: "Yes, the pictures of the band's performance were all taken by ourselves, and we didn't find any substitutes."

"That's amazing, you look like a real rock player, I didn't know you could play the guitar before." Oprah then asked: "Did you practice for this movie?"

"In fact, I am a member of a rock band, but I play bass in the band. In order to shoot a movie and perform in a band with both form and spirit, the director found a teacher for several of us. Maybe you heard He passed him, Peter Frampton. And then we were like a real band, rehearsing together for about two months before filming."

"Wow! It's him, no wonder you guys performed so well."

Oprah looked a little surprised, she looked at the girl next to Keanu, "What about you, Eve, why did you think of making this movie?"

"Because my agent informed me that there was such a wonderful script and a suitable role. At that time, I was still filming "The Girl Who Moved Soul", and I took time to fly back to Los Angeles from New York to audition."

"So did you know in advance that the other party was going to play this role? Or was it a coincidence?" Oprah was indeed Oprah. After a few simple questions, she asked the audience what they most wanted to know.

She added: "At that time, you should have been in a state of divorce, but it seems that the filming did not start, and you got back together. Is this the opportunity brought by this film?"

The relationship between Eve and Keanu seems very happy now, but anyone who has followed the gossip knows that the two got married first and then divorced, and their love was only ignited after they met in Los Angeles.

Eve and Keanu looked at each other, and she said: "Actually, I was the one who signed the contract first, but he should know that I will act in this movie. Because I can get this role because of his guidance. "

If it's bad media, just this sentence can give Eve a reputation of relying on her boyfriend's connections.

Although Oprah likes to dig holes, she is very curious at this time, "How did he teach you?"

"Actually, I'm not familiar with rock and roll. When I came into contact with the script, the only rock bands or singers I could name were the Beatles, the Eagles, and the Rolling Stones. Probably their most famous songs are the ones I'm most familiar with. But Penny Lane, who I played in, is a veteran rock fan, so I wanted to learn as soon as possible what kind of music rock is and what kind of history it has."

While talking, Eve looked at her boyfriend affectionately. Without his help, she might not have been able to get this role.

"Few of the friends around me are particularly obsessed with rock and roll. At that time, I remembered that the last time I met him was in a repair shop. He was rehearsing songs with the members of the Sirius band, so I only had thick I asked him for help. As a result, Keanu helped me choose a lot of classic rock records, and helped me explain interesting things about the rock circle and the lifestyle of rock fans in those eras.”

It was obviously an interview, but Keanu was overjoyed after hearing what his girlfriend said. He had a bright smile on his face, his ears were a little red, and he directly held Eve with one hand, his eyes were full of doting.

"Actually, I acted in this script entirely because of her."

Keanu didn't hide anything at this time, "I saw this script a long time ago, but I never thought about acting in it. But Eve asked me to consult about the rock content, and she successfully passed the audition and got the role. , I was thinking that I must play this role.”

Oprah gave an auntie smile and concluded, "So you've been planning it for a long time!"

"That's right. It's not a coincidence that I acted in this movie. I'm really because of her." Keanu didn't forget to praise his girlfriend at this time, "When I was on the set, she always drove my emotions. Best movie ever."

The audience saw the couple leaning directly on the stage make envious and moved voices, which probably is the sour smell of love.

The plot is so romantic, unintentional.

"You and Eve acted as a couple in the movie, how does it feel to play the couple in the movie?"

"It feels a bit strange. If it were me, I would definitely not appear in the plot in the movie and would not abandon her."

But here Eve thought about it, but said: "It's very cool to play a couple in the movie, it's like falling in love at public expense, I hope I will have the opportunity to do this kind of thing in the future."

As soon as the words of love at public expense came out, the audience and the host laughed from ear to ear. The interview was very smooth and smooth, and basically there was no silence.

Expected and snarky, the viewers of this issue really made money!
