[US Entertainment] Popular all over the world

"He should be a young Jim Stewart, with a bohemian style writer Jack London's temperament." James Cameron added.

Jim Stewart is an actor from Italy. He is six feet two tall and has impeccable facial features. He has become popular because of his role in "Golden Rose Cave", but he is 27 years old this year. Obviously James Cameron wants to be more The young male protagonist, for example, is only 21 years old as set in the script.

At present, Fox, the producer, wants to use Matthew McConaughey. This handsome young man in Hollywood has just entered the industry. Before that, he made some short films and small roles. He played a supporting role, but then he took the lead in big productions such as "The Killing Time" that has not yet been released, and his future stardom is bright.

But James Cameron doesn't like him, thinking that he doesn't have that bohemian artistic temperament, and he is the same age as Jim Stewart, so it's better to use Jim Stewart directly.

The question goes back to the heroine of the film.

There are already quite a few actresses in Hollywood who have read the storyline of "Titanic". Even Nicole Kidman even auditioned with makeup, but the heroine in the script is only 17 years old, and Fox hopes the box office will be guaranteed. So James Cameron's choices are actually very limited.

Jon Landau was helpless after hearing this.

Gloria Stewart was one of the first few actors identified. This lady has a lot of film experience, and every wrinkle is engraved with the charm brought by the precipitation of the years. It is almost impossible to find a Hollywood actor who can Comparable to the new generation of actresses.

But now James Cameron doesn't even look up to Nicole Kidman, the top vase in Hollywood. He dislikes this Australian girl who is not yet 30 years old. up.

This really makes people doubt whether the movie they are making will be stillborn because they can't find actors-Jon Landau can't imagine the scene where Fox learned the bad news.

So he reminded: "Jim, you have promised Fox's production director, Jim Gallopoulos, to start auditioning actors next month, and at least choose a leading actress—and it's already the end of the month."

"Have I made a promise?" James Cameron frowned without thinking, with an expression that really didn't matter.

"You have." Jon Landau said with certainty.

"Can I forget it?" James Cameron asked again.

"Of course." Jon Landau spread his hands and changed the subject, "If you don't want Fox's Mexican studio."

"Well, I have." James Cameron compromised, and then said to Mary Finn: "Find me some fresh faces, look at the actresses first. Oh, they even want to marry Madonna Crew Lisai, what a fucking hell!"

"It's easy to ask for new faces. I can find you two thousand in 10 minutes." Mary Finn spread her hands, "The problem is, you have to give me a more specific request, because it is impossible for us to let Audrey . Hepburn resurrected."

Jon Landau made a joke: "Don't find anyone for him. I'm worried that Jim will see all the actresses in Hollywood."

"I'm sure you're mocking me, Jon." James Cameron said.

"Yes, I am." Jon Landau apologized insincerely amidst Mary Finn's chuckle, "I'm sorry, Jim, but can you pay attention, we really It’s impossible to get the entire Hollywood actresses to audition.”

James Cameron frowned first, and after thinking about it, he said: "Don't bother me if you are over 25 years old or [-] or [-] years old. Don't bother me if you are not beautiful enough or people of color. The specific imagination of the protagonist, but she needs to have at least some golden age elegance, and enough to surprise everyone."

Mary Finn interjected: "Many outstanding young actresses have emerged this year, such as Claire Dennis is good, Jodie Foster recommended her to us, Baz Luhrmann's "Romeo and Juliet" It was to find her to replace Natalie Portman."

"Oh, I have a little impression." James Cameron pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "Send her an audition invitation. But Leonardo DiCaprio, who plays a couple with her, is in my heart If I were the audience, I would not really expect Juliet to wear a classical corset—Mary, is there any more refreshing candidate?"

Mary Finn thought for a minute this time, and then asked with some uncertainty: "What do you think of Josie Horton, Jim? She is, and she is also very beautiful in the camera."

"If you're talking about her, my daughter has been keen to make a diet plan for me since the summer, just like the heroine played by Josie Horton in the movie." Jon Landau shrugged, The expression was helpless and proud, and imitated the tone of his little daughter, "Oh Dad, your blood sugar is too high; Oh Dad, you need to eat some vegetables. Haha!"

"Isn't this a sweet treat?" Mary Finn teased, "It's such a blessing to have a well-behaved and lovely daughter."

"That's right." Jon Landau said with a smile.

Of course, James Cameron could not have failed to notice this year's super rookie, and he also respected Mary Finn's suggestion, and said with some hesitation: "I know her, the 'Golden Girl'. But the problem is, she is A popular teenage icon with a face people associate with Dominatrix, so I've always thought her on-screen presence wasn't right for our film. But you can tell me what you think, Marie."

"Then you should watch her audition tape for "First Fear" for Paramount, it will completely change your impression of her." Mary Finn put the video tape she had prepared in a pile of documents and audio-visual materials Turning it out, trying not to be so deliberate, "Her performance will surprise people, and don't you think it's refreshing to have a completely different teen idol in our movie?"

James Cameron and Jon Landau exchanged a look.

As veteran filmmakers who have been in Hollywood for many years, they can certainly see that Mary Finn is speaking well and favorably for Claire Dennis and Josie Horton, but this does not mean that people will be disgusted, because every That's what everybody does, unless she or he doesn't need to be in a James Cameron movie at all.

Actively striving for the role you want within the rules is originally the scope of normal work efforts.

The only thing they care about is whether the actor is suitable for the role and whether he can play the role well.

James Cameron nodded, "It's okay to take a look. I heard that she has a movie face that is very suitable for the camera. I hope it can surprise us."

To be honest, Hobright, the director who has worked with Josie Horton, just praised her. He was really curious, why Ron Howard also praised this youth idol star in the usual sense?

Mary Finn felt a little relieved, thinking that the opening that she had carefully planned for Josie Horton was not bad, but as for the real audition, she could do very little to help.

But who knows that a month or so has passed, and James Cameron has auditioned some actresses one after another, but has repeatedly postponed Josie Horton's audition.

In the end what happened?

With the advent of 1996, Hollywood's annual awards season is entering its busiest time.

Josie attended some parties in a targeted manner, and she and her team focused on public relations with those members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, including but not limited to sending video tapes and presenting movie peripheral gifts.

Thankfully, compared with Hollywood's large number of members of the Oscar Academy, the members of the Foreign Press Association are not many, and the information is more open and transparent, so it is no surprise that there will be a bribery scandal many years later.

But relatively speaking, at least before Weinstein dominated the Oscars, whether it was the Golden Globes or the Academy Awards, the awards were not as criticized as they would be in the future.

After tonight's premiere, Josie attended a party hosted by the distributor, Bowell Pictures, and Brad Renfro also appeared on the scene.

Brad's resume and star path are somewhat similar to Josie's.

He was first discovered by director Joe Schumacher and filmed his debut "The Ultimate Witness", and then won praise from film critics with "The World of Truth", and in the just-released new movie "The Adventures of New Tom", his The comedy performance has been affirmed by both the audience and the industry, and is already a rising star of tomorrow.

But compared to Josie, who soared into the sky in the first movie, Brad's star luck is a little worse. After all, Josie bought herself a life-extending plug-in, and the popularity of the "Leading the Coquettish" movie started from the movie. It has continued outside the play, and the blog site operated under her name has become a fashion bible for young girls nowadays.

However, the concept of online media has not yet become popular, because the popularity of personal computers and the slow speed of telephone dial-up are restricting its development, but Qiao Qian's website has taken the lead in attracting cutting-edge young people, These are the highest quality user groups.

It is worth mentioning that Josie's coffee status belongs to the unstable B-ca star, because she made one phenomenal movie, and because she only made one phenomenal movie.

The calculation method of Hollywood's coffee position is not complicated. It is an actor's status in the film history of the film he starred in and whether the actor himself has successfully portrayed the role, taking into account some box office factors, and finally the actor's salary.

Being able to get a percentage of the remuneration is the iconic treatment of a superstar.

In addition, the box office and awards are not as important as the public thinks. Most movies basically do not rely on the box office to return their capital, because the follow-up income after the movie is released is the real profit.

Therefore, for an actor, the starring movie can affect the current or future popular culture, and then leave a name in the film history, and then he is eligible to become a shining star on the Avenue of Fame.

Shaping popular culture is one of the reasons why Keanu has been popular for many years.

Back to the topic.

The party at night was very lively. Josie seemed to have gone back in time. Under the leadership of Kevin Howian, she met one after another so-called industry insiders, most of whom were elderly white men. After all, the Foreign Press Association The characteristics of these people determine that the age of these people is as deep as their qualifications.

And Oscar's group of old white men is much more than this one.

In the hotel lobby, Kevin's tone was mocking, "Why don't they go home and take a good look in the mirror, preferably the ones with their pants off, what gave them the ability to be with the most popular youth idol stars?" Confidence for dinner? Ha!"

As he spoke, he watched Josie's reaction from the corner of his eye, but unexpectedly met Josie's gaze, and immediately tugged at his tie knot.

Josie withdrew her gaze and said slowly, "Oh, Kevin, you seem to have lost your composure tonight? I hope that no matter what happens, we should maintain basic courtesy, at least it should be the case during awards season."

"Sorry, Josie, but I didn't expect tonight to be so bad." Kevin shrugged and explained helplessly, "You know, I've been doing my best to keep you from being harassed."

"I know. You, Martha, and Archie are very important business partners to me. So relax, it's just a nomination." Josie gave Kevin a faint smile, meaning .

"But it's very important to us, isn't it?" Kevin said, putting a coat on Josie's shoulders, and opened the hotel door for her.

"Thank you, you're so sweet, Kevin." Josie put her hands in Kevin's arms and continued as she walked out, "Yeah, and that's why we're here, we just Just needing to do your best is enough, it doesn't matter that much."

At the entrance of the hotel, El had already parked the car there.

Kevin opened the car door for Josie, covered her head with his palm, and waited for her to get into the back seat before saying, "Josie, sometimes I really don't understand what you want, really."

"What do I want?" Josie laughed, her carefully drawn red lips curved delicately, "I originally just wanted to be famous, but they forced me to want power. That's all."

"That's all?" Kevin smiled bitterly and closed the car door, "Goodbye, Josie, I wish you a sweet dream."

"Good night, Kevin." Josie rolled down the window and waved her hand, then turned around and picked up Martha's call: "Good evening, Martha, don't worry about James Cameron, we can't be the first , then get ready for the grand finale..."

At this moment, Josie still doesn't know that after the Super Bowl on the last Sunday in January, James Cameron will suddenly lose interest in her because of a Pepsi commercial, and he is still watching the Hollywood awards season energetically The mode of operation of public relations activities.

Just a little slack, her boarding plan almost went wrong.

But that's something that will happen later, because it's only early January, and the Golden Globe Awards ceremony before the Super Bowl hasn't even started yet.

The black Volvo rolled into the night.

Kevin turned around but showed an excited smile, straightened the collar of his suit jacket, and muttered to himself, "You want to be on the top of power in Hollywood? I've never seen a girl like this, and neither has Hollywood." Ever had someone like this - I can't help but start to feel the anticipation and excitement? This is really wonderful, but should I really join this crazy gamble..."

He shook his head and got into the car driven by his assistant.

Santa Monica is quiet and peaceful at night.

Josie wrapped her coat tightly, curled up on the cushion in the back seat of the car, and held the phone she was talking on with her right hand to her ear.

"You know, I'm thinking about you too—how are you doing today?" Her body posture was relaxed, and so was her tone, "I'm going to stay in Los Angeles for a few days, um, to meet some people."

El, who was driving, glanced at Josie in the rearview mirror, and saw a soft smile on her carefully painted red lips, and her big blue eyes narrowed lazily, like a cat.

"Then you tonight..."

El quickly retracted his gaze, but subconsciously opened his eyes wide in the next second, slammed the steering wheel, and then slammed on the brakes under his feet——

The author has something to say: Jim Rose Stewart is really a wonderful man.

Matthew McConaughey was a bit incomprehensible when he was suddenly popular that year. He had only debuted for two or three years at the time. Oscar favorite President Shimoki, three people are supporting him at the same time, the director is still the eternal Batman hit Warner favorite Joe Schumacher, I feel a bit like Xiu Chundao suddenly found a little fresh meat As Shen Lian, his partner is Liu Shishi, Nie Yuan, and Jin Shijie.
