The top of fame and fortune [Comprehensive British and American]

Erica felt that she might have to get used to the addition of a direct blood relative in her life.

For example, at this moment, in Parker's house in the early morning, Erica is sitting in the open kitchen, sipping coffee to refresh himself, but there is a sound of the door opening in his ears.

Then, the figures of Spider-Man and Captain America broke into her sight.

In the hands of the 'Anti-Fascist World Hero', Captain America is holding "Vanity Fair" and the British version of "VOGUE", the latest DVD of "The Godfather 3", and posters of "The Phantom of the Opera" and "Thelma & Louise".

There is no doubt that Erica is the absolute protagonist in these magazines, videos, and posters.

"You bought these things yourself?" Erica asked in disbelief.

"Of course," Steven Rogers gave her an affirmative answer without hesitation, and added, "There are also "Phantom of the Opera" tickets."

In the new year's Broadway show season, Erica still performed musicals at the MAJESTIC Theater every night, and as her reputation in Hollywood increased, the theater box office of "The Phantom of the Opera" continued to remain high.

In the open kitchen, Erica was drinking coffee and flipping through the British version of "VOGUE" magazine brought by the captain. This is the cover she shot in the Palace of Westminster, "Last month's first trip to the UK, Always surprises me.”

In addition to winning the British Academy Film Award in a surprise, this volume of the British version of "VOGUE", which she was on the cover of, was well received and sold very well after its publication.It was even rated as "the absolute top ten covers of the year" by the Council of Fashion Designers of America and the British Fashion Council, known as the "Oscars in the fashion industry".

What Erika didn't know at the moment was that the trip to England not long ago seemed to bring her not only a trophy and a best-selling magazine——

In London, in the white building at No. [-] Boulevard, adjacent to Buckingham Palace and Downing Street, countless square light spots interlaced and projected into the dim office area. Behind the long table, sat the government gentleman who exerted power over Great Britain and even the whole of Europe.

However, on his long office desk where the official documents of "manipulating the country's operations" should be placed, there is a detailed information on a Hollywood actress at this moment.

And some items that Captain America will find very familiar if he reads them, such as "Vanity Fair" and "VOGUE" magazines, "The Godfather 3" DVD, "Phantom of the Opera", "Thelma and Louise" posters.

Mycroft Holmes stared at the biogenetic identification document in his hand with a puzzled expression.

Of course, it was impossible for Erica to know that since mid-February, she had become a key investigator of MI[-].

I have to say that this is really a bit overkill for MI[-] agents.In the past three months, Erica Parker's whereabouts information has been detected, except for his studies and performances, emmm, but his private life is very exciting.

"Friday, May 5, the world premiere of Thelma & Louise in Los Angeles," an MI24 intelligence officer recorded the document, and then said to a colleague beside him, "The London release won't be until July? How can the British distributor What's going on?"

Another intelligence agent replied, "Who said no? I've been looking forward to the release of this movie since three months ago."

When the British agents of MI5 were discussing this female film, in New York City on the night of Friday, May 24th, Steven Rogers and Peter Parker were walking into the AMC joint theater, preparing to watch " Thelma & Louise.

"Thelma & Louise" is scheduled for May 5th, and next Monday, 24th, will be Memorial Day. As a federal holiday in the United States, Memorial Day has always been considered the beginning of Hollywood's summer vacation.

In the theater, there were many promotional posters of "Thelma & Louise" posted, and Erica's portrait and name were placed in the most prominent position, and was regarded as one of the most critical sales hotspots by the producer MGM and United Cinemas.

To some extent, Erica Parker has been considered by the producers to have relevant box office appeal, enough to withstand certain risks, and is the 'insurance' for the film's box office.

And whether Erica can bring "Thelma & Louise" a strong first-weekend box office in the next few days will determine whether she can enter the "A-list Star" temple in one fell swoop.

At this time, in the AMC joint theater, Steven and Peter had already sat in the screening hall. Peter lowered his voice and said to the captain, "I thought the audience was mostly female audiences aged 25-40, but I didn't expect that there were many young boys and girls. .”

The audience group that "Thelma and Louise" originally focused on was indeed female audiences aged 25-40, who were the main supporters of the women's liberation movement.This also fits well with Erica's support group.

But apart from that, Erica is also regarded as the sexy label of the new generation of Hollywood, sought after by teenagers all over the United States, and has extraordinary influence among young people.

And in the current summer vacation, this influence is fully revealed.

"The movie has begun—" MGM's iconic roaring lion was shown on the theater screen.

At the beginning of the film, the precise lens language of "no second is wasted" is used to show the living conditions of the cafe waitress Louise and the housewife Selma, both of whom have been neglected and belittled.

"But Erica still looks extremely beautiful." In the theater, some audience members lowered their voices and discussed with their companions.The screen is showing Thelma and Louise taking a car trip, and Erica is wearing a sexy white dress.

But soon, the plot took a turn for the worse. In the bar, Thelma was violently assaulted by the bartender villain. Louis shot and killed him angrily, and the two women embarked on a journey of escape due to the murder.

In 1966, Thunderbird galloped on the majestic road, Selma and Louise were driven to a dead end again and again, but the two women grew amazingly tenaciously like rebirth.

When Thelma was cheated by J.D. and had to rob a store in order to make up for the escape, the audience in the theater couldn't help applauding her, and thought without exception, "I know she's a robber." , but Erika was hilarious and super cool."

When the film progressed to the point where Selma and Louis met the Nazi police, Erica unexpectedly aimed the revolver at the forehead of the violent policeman, and cheers erupted in the theater, "It's wonderful!"

Erica acted like a 'natural criminal'. Compared with the image of a housewife who was oppressed by her husband in the past, the amazing contrast seemed to break through all the shackles of oppression. The charm and aura she showed were like It's like a storm sweeping through people's hearts.

In addition to the wonderful performances, the soundtrack of "Thelma & Louise" is also extremely exciting. The soundtrack master Hans Zimmer combined passionate electronic music and orchestral music to create a majestic road movement.

The actual shots of Lewis and Thelma shooting and detonating the fuel tanker, and the canyon chase scene using 24 police cars and three helicopters are not inferior to any action blockbuster.

And when the two women ended up at the end of the road, in the rolling yellow sand, they drove the 1966 Thunderbird over the cliff together.

In the theater, the theme song "Partofme, partofyou" resounded with intense melody, "No matter where we go, no matter what hardships we experience, no matter how time passes, the feeling at this moment will never change."

"Until we cross the bridge to eternity beyond, until a magnificent vision leads us back home."

People burst into tears, but not just from sadness, but from inspiration and awakening.

"Bravo!" The applause was thunderous and shocking.
