atypical hollywood life

"Mr. Howard Hughes?" Interestingly, there was a playful smile on the face with a few small freckles, and the behavior of the other party told her that the man in front of her wanted to pursue her.

The audience read the feeling from the look on Catherine's face.The kind of sparks that I want to see what you can do made these guys who hadn't waited for the heroine before to sit up straight and their eyes widened. They wanted to see how the emperor tossed Howard Hughes of!

"I watched your "Little Women", it's wonderful, Joe is so charming..." Howard talked to the girl in front of him about his feelings about the movie, his eyes sparkled, and he seemed to be able to catch Catherine at any time. engulf.

"Really?" Catherine smiled, and the smile on the corner of her mouth widened a little. The expression that had always seemed too cold and hard became gentle, adding a bit of charm to the already bright and radiant face. Even the smile on the nose Those little freckles seemed to be jumping up for joy.

Even if this man is a playboy, he is also an interesting playboy. His conversation and self-cultivation made Katharine Hepburn, who was also from the upper class, interested in this young man who had just stepped into Hollywood.

"I'm going to die..." 'Very well, you successfully aroused my interest! 'Looking at the face that clearly said Come, let's tease each other, A. O. Scott held his chest and felt that he was shot by Margaret's glorious bow again.

He certainly wasn't the type to sneak into the cinema with his film critic credentials without an invitation.In fact, this famous person not only watched the trial screenings of the movie, but even visited several screenings!

Yes, he admits, he's in for the movie with Margaret's terribly short scene!Who told him that he had completely dedicated his knees to this girl?

Since "The Matrix", Scott has been running on the road of Margaret's fanboy and is gone forever!

Even if it's a boring movie like "Silent as the Sea", he can watch it several times. After the movie was released, he bought the disc collection immediately after the movie was released, and watched it in order every once in a while.This year's "Hell Detective" and "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" made him extremely high, and he was very excited.

This "The Aviator" is no exception. When Scott first started, he planned to watch it a few times if there were too few scenes of Margaret in the movie, and just buy a disc and watch it slowly. But But he didn't expect that once he saw Margaret appearing on the big screen, he couldn't pull his eyes out!

To be honest, Katharine Hepburn is not a great beauty, especially a stunning beauty.But her temperament made her not inferior in the golden age when there were many beauties and handsome men.

Good background and upbringing make this tough lady inherently elegant and straightforward, even if she is not considered top-notch in this era, she can still play the kind of beauties and rich young ladies. It is because of her unique charm that is a mixture of self-confidence, upbringing and many experiences.It can be said that it is okay if you are not beautiful in the golden age, but it is absolutely impossible to not have your own characteristics!

And Katharine Hepburn undoubtedly brought out her own characteristics to the fullest, which led to the failure of countless people to imitate her afterwards, even if she looked like her again.But Margaret is different. This girl is completely different from her great-grandmother in appearance. She belongs to the kind of peerless beauty that only appears in a century!

The gap between the two people can really be regarded as the opposite.But looking at the girl appearing on the big screen now, Scott suddenly had an idea for some reason, she is Katharine Hepburn!

Seeing her swinging the golf club gracefully, riding a horse to catch up with Leonardo in front, and grinning after whipping his horse hard, the Katharine Hepburn in Scott's mind instantly followed her Overlapped.

That kind of wantonness, that kind of heartiness made Scott completely immersed in the past era.

"Comeon, Howard, you should hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to make it to lunch!" There was a melodious mezzo-soprano voice in the movie, and the end of the sentence was still in my ears, but the man had already rushed to the front on his horse.

"She's so beautiful." An audience couldn't help praising the vigorous vitality in Margaret.

The fiery red hair is like a ball of jumping flames, setting off this woman whose personality is also like a fire. The feeling of never being afraid and always moving forward made the movie theater audience feel as if they really witnessed that scene with their own eyes. The Katharine Hepburn of the era is so enthusiastic, cheerful and unrestrained.

Compared to most ordinary audiences, Merio's CP fans are the most excited right now.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo times"" in reality..." betty cried herself into a dog in the dark movie theater.

Looking at the warm and pious smile that Howard Hughes showed when he gently kissed Katharine Hepburn in the movie, she couldn't help but think of the bitterness of chasing stars for so many years.

As sweet as the new couple on the big screen, they are as cruel in reality. Betty, who has been with the CP couple for nearly ten years, cried while substituting the two into the status quo, but ended up crying even harder.Damn, what do you expect if the heroine is married?Leonardo, you unworthy guy!

However, her attention was quickly diverted from Merio, and Betty was dazzled by the interlocking wonderful plot. In order to understand this movie, she did a lot of homework in advance, including what information about She has seen all the materials on Howard Hughes and Katharine Hepburn, but how can anything be compared with real actors?

Betty watched with fascination the two people on the big screen were dressed up at the ball and twirled on the dance floor. They seemed to be talking about some interesting topic, whispering intimately, and the whole ball was full of interests and business. There seems to be a layer of cover between them, and that sweet feeling seems to be transmitted to the audience through the curtain.

"It's not the same as the passion of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, but it's just as exciting..." A man with glasses next to her said unconsciously.

Different from the hormonal rush of fighting wits and courage in the former, the dance scenes in "The Aviator" are more subtle and focus on life.The two people who were dancing even had silly smiles on their faces, obviously completely immersed in this sweet relationship, and the handsome men and women around them had completely become a bunch of backgrounds at this time The wall, even if the director's lens sweeps over them from time to time, the audience can automatically filter these people into a blurred background, which is really a sad thing.

But who is it that the hero and heroine are really too eye-catching?At this time, Leonardo has lost the beauty and innocence of his youth, and has become a mature man. With Anthony's training bonus, the whole person seems to have traveled from that past era. , with a charm that is enough to confuse the world, and Margaret, she is not the young girl who smiled at the beginning, the beautiful face is completely different from the behavior that seems to be possessed by Katharine Hepburn It can make people unable to distinguish between reality and illusion, and brings the audience into a trance state.

Under the halo of such two people, what role do those background walls have besides making people feel the characters of that glorious era?It can only be used as a background.

"Pa——" A crisp slap on the face woke up the group of audience who were immersed in the age of paper fans and drunkenness.

"Hiss—" the people in the darkness took a breath in unison.

How much effort did it take to make such a loud voice on a human face?Watching Howard Hughes in the movie, his head was tilted by this slap, the men at the scene couldn't help but feel cold all over their bodies!

"The emperor is indeed the emperor. He is not polite when he picks up his husband, and even the offspring he gave birth to are so tough..." The body of Rex Reed, the leading film critic of "New York Observer", was caught by this sudden attack. The slap was so frightened that he bounced on the chair.

There is no trace of editing from the beginning to the end of this shot, it is very smooth, the focus of the camera is always on the two people, so the audience can clearly see the emotions between the male lead and the female lead due to the quarrel, One endured and the other broke out, forming a wonderful atmosphere with the two people who were so sweet that they could get along with each other before, and what broke this atmosphere was that magical slap in the face.

"Conflict is the root of drama. It seems that the screenwriter has really put a lot of effort into it." Even after watching the movie for the second time, Richard Collis still praised this shot.

Even though the standard configuration of this film is not like a literary biographical film, full of commercial atmosphere, he still has to admit that the performance of the hero and heroine has added too many points to "The Aviator".

Whether it's Leonardo DiCaprio's reincarnated mesmerizing performance or Margaret's Katharine Hepburn-like rejuvenation, the famous film critic marveled.

To be honest, before seeing the official content of this film, he always thought that Leonardo DiCaprio would probably run away with him again this time. After all, his acting skills have been praised for his pursuit of the statuette in recent years. It has gradually become routine and patterned, and it is hard for him to imagine that the other party can come up with new tricks after launching a work like "Blood Diamond".The role of Howard Hughes really gave him a surprise, and it seems that no matter how much the Oscar judges don't like him, at least one nomination this year is indispensable.

As for Margaret, Richard shook his head, full of regret.

It's a pity, if this movie is not released this year but a few years later, then the little girl's third trophy will also be obtained.But now? "The Aviator" is not "Forrest Gump", and it is absolutely impossible for Oscar to give her another statuette this year!Even in the early years of the Oscars, it was rare to win an acting award, let alone now?One Tom Hanks is enough, even if they are gods, they will not be so eager. Haven't they seen the third statuette of their own daughter Meryl Streep?

What a pity!Richard sighed inwardly again.It is really that Margaret's performance in this movie is so amazing that he has to admire it. How long has it been since "Million Dollar Baby"?This girl's acting skills have improved even further?The meticulous and natural performance has made him completely unable to find the impression of this girl in the past. Those French guys in Cannes are right, this movie is indeed beyond Marguerite's previous works.

The adjective that she played this role alive is not enough to describe Margaret's performance in this movie. Richard can't see the slightest trace of acting on this girl. It seems that she usually has such a character , everything is just time cast a spell, so that the soul of Katharine Hepburn appeared in the body of Margaret Jane to complete these performances.

Of course, Richard is not that familiar with the real Katharine Hepburn, but he has seen every movie of the great emperor and heard every legend about her!He didn't need to know what the real Katharine Hepburn looked like, because Margaret had already pictured in his mind a complete picture of the powerful female figure of the Golden Age!

Many times the facts are a bit slap in the face, even very ridiculous.Calculating the time carefully, the filming time of this movie was even before "Million Dollar Baby", but its acting skills are considered to have surpassed the movie in which Margaret won the statuette. If Margaret knew this Mr. Film Critic would probably laugh out loud if he was thinking about something. Sure enough, let them go to hell with film critics!

So why has people's impression of film critics plummeted since the new century?

Most of the reasons are their own making.A group of people who have never made movies or have never worked in movies use their own pens to imagine things they don't understand at all. In order to improve their style and show off their knowledge and culture, they write a bunch of nonsense In the film reviews, the audience can't understand what they can't understand, and they don't like what the audience likes. It seems that only by breaking away from the masses can the art and style of the movie be maintained.

These people may have forgotten that movies are made for audiences. If everyone can't understand, then what's the point of this movie?Even the works shot by a great director like Kubrick are not all piles of dream talk. A complete and smooth story is the foundation of a movie. the most fundamental things.

And although this film critic is not like many of his colleagues, there is no doubt that he has also fallen into a vicious circle of self-righteousness, making an apparently simple thing extremely complicated.I completely forgot that there is another kind of acting in the world called true color acting!
