[US Entertainment] Top Hollywood directors

Claire signed with Spielberg's Dream Studios.

Now, he has Claire Dorries in his hands.

If Claire wants to make a movie by herself in the future, but there are no conditions.

She can find Spielberg, after all, Spielberg is an excellent producer.

When Claire received the call from Phillips, it was early in the morning and she was still in a daze.

"Claire, what do you think of the Sundance Film Festival?"

"Very good, what's wrong?"

"Well, we're going to file a Sundance report for "The Road to Doom."

She sat up from the bed all of a sudden, without any sleepiness.

The Sundance Film Festival is the world's leading independent film festival. If you want to participate, you need to apply in advance. After the application is approved, an invitation letter will be sent. Only after receiving the invitation letter can you participate.Of course, if there are some excellent films or filmmakers, the producer of the Sundance Film Festival will send invitations directly.

The Sundance Film Festival is a film festival dedicated to unknown filmmakers and films.Founded by Robert Redford in 1984, after years of accumulation, this small film festival in the United States has become an important spiritual pillar of the independent film industry. springboard.And the major Hollywood production companies are looking for new talents, and the "Sundance Film Festival" is a pool of human resources not to be missed.

The Sundance Film Festival is a paradise for independent filmmakers.

"Come to the company today, I have some new jobs here, please take a look." Phillips said again.

Claire packed up briefly, ready to go to Phillips.

CAA:

In 2010, CAA also achieved the "Grand Slam" of Oscars—that is, all Oscar winners are CAA's contract clients.

From this, the terrible degree of CAA can be seen.

Tall buildings, busy people coming and going.

No one noticed a young woman walked into CAA.There are too many people like this, after all, this is CAA.

However, they also have no way of knowing.

The girl who passed by me will be the greatest director in the next hundred years, and the object of countless people's crazy pursuit.

Although at this time, she was just an ordinary person who came to CAA looking for opportunities, there was nothing unusual about her.

But this is nothing special, there are too many people who become famous overnight.This is Hollywood.

This is a place where dreams are built, and countless people shine here.

Rich and poor alike are knocking on the door of success.

Claire soon arrived at Phillips' office.

Seeing her coming, Phillips took out some documents and put them on the table, "Here are some auditions, take a look."

Watched the first copy of "Sweetheart Pretty".

"Season [-], oh, soap opera. The ratings are good. I don't recommend this though."

"After all, the word-of-mouth declined, and the exodus of actors also caused David a headache."

"What is this? "Desperate Housewives"?" She didn't continue to look at the document in her hand, and saw something on the table that was obviously ignored by Phillips in the corner.

Bald Phillips replied, "Mark Cherry, loser, the failure of "Goldilocks" made the producers not want to see him."

"He voted in today and no one wanted to invest. I would have thrown it in the trash."

Claire was attracted by the name, she couldn't help but pick up the script and read it, the more she read it, the more fascinated she became.

"Do you want to take it? If I knew it earlier, he was rejected by five companies."

"Although the script is very good, no one can guarantee that the audience will like it." Phillips looked at Claire and said.

"I want to try it."

"Forget it, I can't talk to you. Go and have a look." The middle-aged man said.

She got a call from Mark and made an appointment for an interview in the afternoon.

"Hello, I'm Claire Dorries."

Mark is 43 years old.Slightly fat, "Desperate Housewives" was created by him.

Mark was pleasantly surprised by the only director willing to come for an interview.

But he didn't expect such a young female director to come, who was as beautiful as a model.

Mark said to her with a little luck: "I don't want to star in girls of this age here."

Claire twitched her mouth: "Sir, I am a director."

Mark suddenly felt hopeless in life.

Claire has no work, and Mark can't believe her. He smokes a cigarette depressedly, as if the current interview is a waste of time.

"I'm a student at USC, and I'm not famous yet, but maybe you can listen to my views on "Desperate Housewives" first."

Mark looked at her, indicating that he wanted to hear her go on.

Not to mention that this is a woman's midlife crisis drama, what can a little girl like Clare say.And he was also curious about what she learned in Southern California.

He has already been rejected by the five major companies, and now he is not bad for this disappointment.

She said, "All the stories in "Desperate Housewives" take place on a wisteria street where rich, beautiful, and elegant American middle-class families gather. The green lawns, beautiful white fences, and well-decorated houses all make the The audience feels relaxed and happy. The housewives living on the wisteria streets have their own secrets and a lot of difficulties that need to be solved urgently. It can be seen from the plot setting that these housewives have got rid of the traditional image of housewives and become brave and strong , a bit selfish but kind-hearted.”

"Each of them owns a big house, and their husbands are responsible for earning money outside, while they often gather together and talk about family affairs. They seem to live a carefree, comfortable and leisurely life, but they have their own troubles and problems. Dilemma."

Mark was a little taken aback, after all, she spoke his mind.

Mark's expression became more and more focused.

Claire continued: "bree was billed as the 'perfect housewife' of the four main housewives.

"Bree's exquisite and perfect pursuit of life in her bones and concepts made her immerse herself in the beautiful and elegant family environment and atmosphere she created. All arrangements must be perfect, but her husband and children can't bear this kind of delicacy and beauty for many years, so she She looks peaceful and dignified, but she has struggles and imbalances inside, so she often argues with her family and even speaks angrily."

"Lynette is capable, smart and strong, a typical strong woman. First of all, she had to give up her beloved career and return to her family, but her unyielding and pride made her speak fiercely and harshly, which inevitably caused endless disputes with her husband Tom. After a third party appeared Laoyan separated, and the family was almost broken. Although Gaby was rich in material goods and beautiful in appearance, she and her husband quarreled and reunited for money and children. Her husband later became unemployed and blind, and her life was almost in trouble. Susan was beautiful, kind, well-behaved, gentle, and innocent. Careful, loving with family and friends.”

"However, several economic crises and disharmony caused by objective factors brought Susan more anxiety and turmoil in her heart, making her have to work hard for money. All in all, everyone in this drama has secrets, big and small. , inner entanglements and struggles.”

After Claire finished speaking, she found that Mark had already fallen silent.

Heard that Claire only spent an hour reading part of the script that Mark sent.These can be launched.

Some places even reasonably foresee the second half of the script in Mark's hands.

All show: she is a genius.

Mark took a deep puff of his cigarette, and no longer hesitated: "I hope what you do will be as wonderful as what you said."

"You also have to know, after all, I haven't found a company that is willing to invest. Next, I have to vote for the script."

A young director who has not graduated, and an unemployed person will form the lineup.

It's crazy.

Before the filming starts, bystanders will know the ending.

But she didn't care.

"Actually, I'm curious why Mr. Mark can write such an excellent script." Claire said with a smile.

Mark laughed: "It's a secret."

When chatting with others about script-related topics, Mark always looks up.

In fact, one day, dutiful Mark went to his mother's house and watched TV while eating.

They saw reports about Andrea Yates.

The Texan woman who drowned her five children in a bathtub was sentenced to rape for life.

Mark Cherry asked his mother:

"Can you imagine a woman being so desperate?"

Mother calmly replied:

"I can understand. I've tasted it too!"

"When your father left me, I thought about committing suicide. But for you, I gave up."

Mark didn't expect that his mother, who was always optimistic and elegant in his eyes, thought so in his heart.

This gave him inspiration.

That's how "Desperate Housewives" came about.

After hearing this, Claire was a little speechless.

She and Mark thought of one sentence at the same time:

"Woman, it's scary!"
