Exploiting Hollywood 1980.

Chapter 693
"Huh? Not 'The Bride and the Wolf'?"

Ronald thought to himself, although the opening of this movie is also the opening of the song, but the script of "The Bride and the Wolf" stipulates that the famous aria of Pavarotti in Puccini's opera "La Bohème" should be used, "Your Little Cold Hand" opens.

The plot continued, and an actor Ronald knew, Cher, Tom Cruise's girlfriend, played a milf.She has gray hair, wears conservative clothes, and works as an accountant for other small businessmen.

"It looks like it's still the Bride and the Wolf, but the opening song has changed." The following plot is similar to the script I just read.

Ronald watched Cher's performance, and it turned out that she was chosen as the protagonist, which was also very interesting.Although Xueer is now close to forty, she is very trendy and charming.But the makeup in this movie has clearly shown its old age.I don't know how such a young beauty agreed to wear old makeup.

Cher plays Loretta Castorini, a widowed Italian woman who dines with her boyfriend, John Cammareri, at a restaurant. Dumped him first.

As a result, by mistake, Loretta's boyfriend John also wanted to take this opportunity to propose to Loretta, because he didn't prepare a ring, and Loretta didn't like it.Boyfriend John proposes with one of his plain rings, and Loretta agrees.

The fiancé went to see his seriously ill mother in his hometown in Palermo, Italy, and finally asked Loretta to invite his brother whom he hadn't seen for a long time.Because of the elder brother, the younger brother lost one hand, and the two brothers have not spoken for a long time.He wants his fiancée, Loretta, to invite him.

When his younger brother, Ronnie Cammareri, who worked in the bakery, appeared on camera, Ronald laughed out loud.The original actor was Coppola's nephew, Nicolas Cage.

When he was filming "Peggy Sue Is Getting Married", he almost fell out with the heroine Catherine Turner because he insisted on using the performance method in the German expressionist film "Metropolis". Turner even threatened to have him without me. Quit the crew.

In the end, Ronald went to the crew to mediate and let Cage restrain himself a little, so that the film that Coppola wanted to use to completely pay off the debt and turn around could continue to shoot.

But in this dream movie, Cage is still acting in the same expressionistic way, the line of "I dropped my hand! I dropped my hand!", and the look of righteous indignation, is simply imitating Old German films, the body language of silent films like "Metropolis".

However, in this unrestrained and even a bit bizarre movie, Nicolas Cage's acting is really suitable.

"Ronnie, what are you laughing at?" Diane was awakened by Ronald's laughter, looked up in a daze, and saw the moonlight shining into the room.She rubbed her eyes, and through the moonlight, she saw the smile on Ronald's face clearly.

"..." Diane looked at Ronald carefully for a while, and he was indeed smiling.She also showed a smile from her heart.This is Ronnie with himself in mind.

I heard people say that when a person is asleep, his true thoughts will be revealed.

"Oh, Ronnie...oh, Ronnie..." Diane touched Ronald's face, then put his arms around Ronald's head, kissed him lightly on the face, and put his head on his On the chest, continue to sleep.

"Oh, Ronnie, what about John?" In the dream Ronald looked at Cher's Loretta and Cage's Ronnie.

The two negotiated in a room on the second floor of the bakery, and Loretta fried steak for her fiancé's brother.Maybe it was the sultry moonlight, but suddenly I didn't know which heartstrings the two of them had touched. Ronnie picked up Loretta and walked to the bed in the inner bedroom.

"I'm angry with him, I lost my hand, and a beautiful woman like you wants to marry him." Cage roared like a beast.

"Come on, come on, love me, Ronnie. Vent your dissatisfaction with John on me, so that he can only marry one of my shells." Cher put her arms around Cage's head, and the two played very involved.

"Hmm..." Ronald felt his head being hugged in a daze, "This performance is very good, I already have synaesthesia."

"I'll marry your brother. Nothing happened last night, did you hear? It never happened last night."

Early the next morning, Loretta realized that she might have seen the big and bright moon last night, and had sex with Ronnie in a moment of confusion.

So as soon as I got up, I made an agreement with my fiancé's younger brother, Ronnie, not to let him mention what happened last night.

"I can not do it."

"why?"

"Because I'm in love with you."

"Crack!" Loretta, played by Cher, slapped Ronnie across the face.

"Slap!" Seeing that Ronnie was still looking at her affectionately, Loretta slapped her again, "Wake up!"

"Well, the acting is also good." Ronald felt as if someone was touching his face.

In order to get rid of Ronnie's entanglement, Loretta decided to agree to Ronnie's request and go to the opera "La Boheme" with him tomorrow night.

For unknown reasons, after the night when the moon caused trouble, Loretta rekindled the enthusiasm she had after her husband died in an accidental car accident.She went to the hair salon specially, gave herself a big wavy hairstyle, had a beauty treatment, and even dyed her nails.

"Oh, this is the true level of Cher's appearance, the woman Tom Cruise is obsessed with." Ronald looked at this makeover (Makeover) scene and exclaimed.Really well edited.

In movies with romantic love, men and women generally have one party's awakened love power, from an ugly duckling to a white swan, so that they are more worthy of the other party with superior conditions.

However, this kind of bridge generally happens in teenage movies. Ronald had the idea of ​​making a movie with this Makeover bridge as the core story, but was snatched by John Hughes. "Pretty in Pink" came out.

It's just that because the roles of men and women are reversed, American audiences prefer to see the appearance of a man and a woman, and generally like a woman who has a makeover, and the box office of Pretty in Pink is mediocre.

It was used correctly in this movie, transforming Loretta into a sexy goddess with superb temperament.

It seems that the love scenes of middle-aged people are no different from the plots of love scenes of teenagers.Ronald's confidence soared.

While watching the opera, Loretta discovered that her father and his lover were also having a tryst at the opera house.The two agreed not to tell their partners.

However, Loretta's mother Rose, as an Italian woman, knew everything a long time ago, so she went out unwillingly.At the restaurant, mother Rose meets the man who proposed in the restaurant but was dumped by his girlfriend.

The two had a good chat, the man was a university professor who was tired of the shallowness of young girls and wanted to ask Ross to go on a date.

Rose kept the bottom line and didn't cheat, but when he got home, he couldn't figure out why a man wanted a woman.

"Why do men want women?"

"Why do men want women?"

Rose asked this question to many people, but none of the answers satisfied her. In the end, her husband gave him a satisfactory answer, "Because men are afraid of death."

Ronald was terrified. Is it because a man seeks a woman because he is afraid of death?

He woke up suddenly, gently let go of Diane's hand that was holding him, then got out of bed and walked to the table by the window to get a glass of water for drinking.

A round of bright moon is slanting in the sky, it seems that today's moon is very big, and the moonlight also makes people feel some emotions.

Maybe it is!
Men are afraid of death, so they want to try their best to make some success to leave something behind, and then use success to conquer women, in order to obtain such a night of peace of mind.

Ronald looked back at Diane in the moonlight.Or try to help her find some good roles, otherwise what's the point of a man conquering a woman?Isn't it just to let the beloved woman do what she is happy with?
……

"Have you decided?" Early the next morning, in the breakfast room of the hotel, Nisita saw the energetic Ronald and asked him the result of his thinking last night.

Ronald was puffing his cheeks and eating baked beans, bacon, and Japanese soft bread.Dongying people have learned from the West thoroughly, and the Western-style breakfast in the hotel is very decent, and the bread has a special flavor and is even more delicious.

"I've decided to buy the script of this movie, and then find distributors and investors." Ronald wiped out another sausage.

"But this is a middle-aged person... Forget it, anyway, you know it yourself." Nisita stopped trying to persuade him. It was the time when Ronald made two blockbuster movies in a row. Now he is very confident in art, and he is not No more than Ronald.

Brokers are not used to pour cold water on clients when their creative enthusiasm is high, but to solve problems when they encounter difficulties.

"By the way, I'm going to ask Cher to play the heroine, what do you think?" Ronald raised his hand, asked the waiter to come over, and brought a breakfast to the room for Diane who was still sleeping.

"Well, it's a good idea." Nisita felt that the role was very suitable for Cher, and the relationship between Tom Cruise and Cher was not optimistic about the relationship between the two sides' management teams.Let her come to Ronald to film and continue to live in two places, maybe the two of them will cool down.

"You feel good too?" Ronald wiped his mouth, asked the waiter to bring the phone, and asked the front desk to make an overseas long-distance call.

"David? I'm Ronald. I've decided to buy this script. You can discuss with John Patrick Shanley's agent. I'll first buy a one-year option on his script. When I come back, I'll talk to him interview."

"Okay, you won't be disappointed." David Simkins was very happy, hung up the phone and hurriedly arranged.

"The next stop is Xiangjiang. Dongying's box office accounts for 5.00% of the world's box office market. Although Xiangjiang has a smaller share, it seems that the film industry there is more developed than Dongying?" Ronald finished typing. Call, come back and ask Nisita.

"Yes, our statistics are the same. Korea, India, and... all have market access policies. A Hollywood film can only sell a dozen copies to enter a market with tens of millions of people. Although it is sought after, audiences line up Watching long-term screenings is not good for us to quickly accumulate star fame.

Although Xiangjiang has a language barrier, it still has a relatively good market environment. "

"I heard that it is called Oriental Hollywood, and I have the opportunity to meet the filmmakers there." Ronald thought of the filmmakers he met in Xujiahui, they had a good chat, and wanted to meet the people there. "

"No problem, I'll ask someone to arrange it."
