unofficial hollywood life

The official content of the film began soon after a series of distributor and producer titles.

The opening chapter is Garry Marshall's iconic shot, warm colors and soft music.

Jodie Foster's chiseled face appeared on the big screen.

"...The new movie of the famous movie star Ms. Keira Tolman will be released on......review..." The heroine appeared with the voice Various videos and photos of Keira.

The red carpet, the movie shooting scene, the magazine, the TV show, the quiet walk in the snow, the quiet reading... almost all show Judy's beauty and temperament, gentleness The singing of the male voice made the title look elegant and lazy, which immediately aroused the interest of a group of audience in the audience.

You must know that Jodie Foster is a very thoughtful actress. She has always disdained to make vases that only serve as decorations, but prefers to challenge her own abilities.No matter how you look at it, this flat film showing its own charm doesn't look like an art film!What's more, there is director Gary Marshall, who is not an Austrian director. His last work has just swept the entire United States, making Julia Roberts, a rookie, the sweetheart of the entire United States.Such a director, such an opening, plus a leading actor who has not yet appeared... Well, it's a bit interesting.

A bunch of film critics straightened their bodies and cheered up.

Isn't it like "The Silence of the Lambs", is Jodie Foster's hit Oscar?Must take a good look!

Ordinary audiences didn't pay much attention to the implication of this shot, and everyone was attracted by the beauty of the heroine at the beginning.

To be honest, Jodie Foster's appearance in the early 90s was quite good, that kind of delicate and angular beauty, with her own alienation temperament, and the role of this big star. It's really a good match. Fans can make posters of her in this movie for collection.

They don't even need to do it themselves, as long as they walk out of the screening hall after the movie is over, there will be a place to sell peripheral products in the movie theater.

"Gary Marshall was really good at photographing women," Arnon Milkan told Steve Ruthor, sitting in the back.

Jodie Foster was so beautiful in the movie that it was unreal, and it was the first time he found this actress so attractive.It's like Julia Roberts, I haven't seen how beautiful she is in real life, and her bad temper is even more unfavorable, but she is so attractive in Garry Marshall's camera , people can't help but want to follow her emotions, the appeal is simply increasing exponentially.

Tsk, you really deserve to be a director who specializes in chick movies!He stared at the charming big star on the big screen and thought.

At this time, the shadow of the big star in the movie has gradually faded, replaced by a slightly messy room.

This looks like a kitchen?Some film critics muttered in their hearts.

Plates with food, messy pots, open magazines, food bags, bread machines, ovens, etc. are piled up on the table, which looks messy and full of life.It's in stark contrast to the sophistication of Jodie Foster's earlier appearances.

The camera continued to extend, and a pair of hands kneading dough appeared in the picture.

powerful!This is people's first impression of these hands. They are beating the dough vigorously at this time, as if they want to break the soft thing.

Then Mel's serious face appeared in everyone's eyes.

"It's like he's flying an airplane," thought the audience.

"Ding—" the oven made a sound that the time was up.

Then he stopped kneading the dough, put on his gloves, walked to the front of the oven and opened the door.

"Wow~" The audience in the theater sighed in unison.

The white mist covered Mel's blue eyes, and the steaming pineapple buns seemed to be able to emit their own wonderful aroma through the screen, making many viewers salivate a little.

"Is this a romance movie or a gourmet movie?" Someone couldn't help muttering.

Are the rows of bread and snacks the audience who want to starve to death watching the movie?

Diana, who was sitting on the chair, was silent.

She just wrote that the male protagonist is a very good cook, and by the way, likes to make desserts for her lovely daughter, but she didn't write what these desserts looked like.It seems that the director also has a foodie soul. Looking at these delicious snacks, she felt as if she had realized something.

But this beginning also made her understand that "Love in New York" has completely become another "Pretty Woman".

Routine is really not unique to novelists. Most directors in Hollywood have their own unique film language. Even if you can’t blurt out their names when you watch a movie like European directors, but you watch a lot. Still able to find familiar places in a pile of films.

The same is true of "Love in New York".

It seems that the actors and the plot have been changed, but the core of the movie is still the same.

Oh, don't ask Diana why she saw this thing. As a keen novelist, she wrote the script. If you can't see it, then she should stop messing around, and get out of the circle early Come on!

Although she also wrote the appearance of the big star Keira Tolman when she revised the script, she only used one sentence to mention it, and did not show the other party in such a comprehensive way.On the contrary, Nick Carter, she has arranged a lot of things for this role, but what is shown in the current film is completely opposite. Does it need to say what the truth is?

"Dinglingling——" a phone rang, breaking this warm and intoxicating moment.

"Hello..." Nick picked up the phone, and waves appeared on his originally calm face.

"...We have an appointment, I can take Katie to the zoo this afternoon..." He frowned and squeezed the phone.

"...I know you're busy, but I'm Katie's father, and nothing will happen if she stays with me for a day..." He tried to argue with the other party.

"Sally... Sally..." Apparently the phone had hung up and Nick was doing nothing.

It turned out to be a divorced man.

The audience suddenly realized that they had an understanding of the identity of the male protagonist. After divorce, the custody of the daughter belongs to the ex-wife.Those delicate snacks he made were meant for an afternoon out with his daughter, but now his ex-wife's job has made that plan go wrong.

Oh, poor Mel!

The sentimental female audience has already sympathized with this poor man, how could anyone be willing to let those blue eyes be filled with sadness?

"Wow--" After hanging up the phone, Nick put his hands on the table for a while, then strode into the kitchen and dumped all the carefully baked pastries into the trash can.

Then sat on the chair and hugged his head.

A typical failed man, if there is some career blow at this time, it will be a standard feature of Austrian movies.Laurian silently wrote a line of handwriting blindly in his small notebook.

As a film critic, the language of the review is more pungent, and Laurian's column has always been very popular.

Because he is well versed in irony and understands what the audience wants to see and what they don't want to see. There are many useful hints in his poisonous tongue. It resonates like having a friend on the other side of the paper.

Compared with those film critics who are more cold and out of touch with the public, this gentleman is undoubtedly an alternative, he is really very down-to-earth.

Therefore, in order to maintain his reputation and maintain his life, he usually racks his brains when watching movies to think about how to make the audience like them more.

Like now.He had watched Garry Marshall's "Pretty Woman" last year, and now he is sitting here watching another movie of his, and it is still being blown up by some media as Jodie Foster's another Oscar level The movie he was acting in made him have to cheer up to deal with it.

However, it is obviously a disadvantage that this gentleman has not read the script before, so he does not know the inside story of "Love in New York".The previous "Pretty Woman" didn't have such a serious and bad plot. Isn't a chick movie just a fun movie for female audiences?Who would have nothing to do to describe the plot of bitterness and hatred?This is not necessary at all!

Contrary to his ideas is another film critic, Paul Griess.

Also as a senior film critic, he has also seen a lot of Garry Marshall's works. Unlike Laurien, he thinks Garry Marshall has improved!

The theme of so-called chick movies always cannot escape one theme, that is salvation!

Either the hero saves the heroine, or the heroine saves the hero.And most of the time, the latter happens more often.

Because fragile men need to be rescued!There are simply too many things that can happen between a big star and a failed and frustrated man!The rescue plot in this movie is obviously much stronger than that in "Pretty Woman"!

If Diana knows what this gentleman thinks, then she will definitely give him a thumbs up, brother, you are so discerning!

Isn't the core of this film about salvation?And it's a two-way rescue, not just the hero saving the heroine, or the heroine saving the hero.

"I'm tired, Jack, I'm really tired. I want an aboveboard relationship instead of a secret date in the apartment..." When the male protagonist looked bitter, the female protagonist There is also a problem here.

Kayla, who was in good spirits in the opening title, now has her hair loose, and she looks a bit haggard, sitting on the sofa and calling her boyfriend.

"Wow, is this a secret love affair?" The audience has already guessed part of the truth.

"...I don't understand. There have been problems in your marriage for a long time. You and Kang Na have even separated. Why can't you make up your mind to divorce? You promised me!" Keira He yelled almost like a roar, tears flowed from his eyes, and his fingers were inserted into the messy long hair, looking so fragile.

"I'm tired of this relationship. I think we should all calm down and consider whether we want to continue this relationship." This time it was Keira who took the initiative to hang up the phone.

She was very strong, grabbed the hair tie on the table and tied her hair up, walked to the treadmill and started running.

But the gradually leaving camera captured a drop of tear falling on the pedal of the treadmill.

"She doesn't seem to be as strong as she shows." Daeron thought thoughtfully.

Like the hero in the movie, he also experienced a failed marriage. Similarly, his wife left him with their children.So it resonates with the male protagonist in the movie, but now he feels that the female protagonist can move him more.It's as if he was struggling to maintain a relationship, but the other party didn't take his relationship seriously, that kind of pain is still unforgettable.

The one who pays more in a relationship is always the one who is hurt more, he thought.

At this time, the plot in the movie has progressed to the point where the hero continues to work and competes with his colleagues.

"There can only be one signature chef that you know, right?" The handsome John Cusack appeared in the camera and issued a declaration of war to the hero.

Then Mr. Cruise, who looked at him, felt uncomfortable.

This person had pursued Diana fiercely at the beginning. If his girlfriend hadn't really had no feelings for him in that offensive, this person would have succeeded!Tom, who unilaterally regarded the other party as a rival in love, felt inexplicably uncomfortable looking at him.

However, Diana, who was the heroine of the war without gunpowder, felt nothing about it, and was still watching the movie with great interest.

She has never seen the trial screening of this film, but it is the first time she watched it today, so of course she must enjoy it carefully.

Anyway, it's her first movie.

"There will be a game in a month, how about we use this to decide the outcome?" The handsome but annoying male No. [-] challenged Nick.

It seemed that he was certain that the opponent would not be able to beat him in that match.

The other chef, who had been watching, shook his head, reassuring Nick after Galen left.

"You don't need to accept his challenge in such a hurry." Hector Elizondo, who once played the hotel manager in "Pretty Woman", reminded Nick, "He has been preparing for this competition for a long time, but You're in bad shape."

One was well-prepared and full of fighting spirit, but the other fell into a trough in life because of divorce. This was originally an unfair war.

It's a pity that his persuasion didn't work. Brent just got a wry smile from Nick, which indicated that the war was inevitable.

At this time, almost 10 minutes have passed, and the hero and heroine still haven't met, but the audience doesn't feel anything, because the amount of information in just a few minutes is enough for everyone to digest.

Soon, the competition between Nick and Galen began, and the two tried their best to show their cooking skills in the competition.

The heroine also sneaked out on a date for the first time because she reunited with her boyfriend.

"!!!" When a judge said that the taste of Nick's dishes was not as good as Galen's because the ingredients were not well selected, he discovered that there was a problem with his sense of smell.

This problem, which should have been solved when picking ingredients, dragged him to hell.He lost to his enemy!

"God..." Brent whispered in surprise from the side.

What does it mean for a chef to lose his sense of smell?

This means that he will not be able to distinguish the quality of the ingredients, thus losing his judgment on the color of the dishes, and it also means that he has been sentenced to death in the chef industry.

Galen, who won the game, was surprised for a moment, but then laughed again.

That's great, isn't it?The position of the signature chef belongs to him, and Nick's current situation is impossible to continue to compete with him in this industry. God is on his side!

The movie "Love in New York" seems to be interpreting Murphy's law. Something happened to the hero, and something happened to the heroine.

The heroine who secretly dated her boyfriend finally did not escape her bad luck. A picture of her holding hands with her boyfriend was photographed and published in the newspaper, triggering an earthquake in the entertainment industry.

"What did I say? Don't get involved with that man, that's a slut! Do you know why he keeps putting off the divorce? Because divorce means he has to pay a lot of alimony! So he would rather live now I don’t want to lose my money in this kind of life separated from my wife! Anyway, there is a fool who is willing to believe his lies and is deceived again and again, so what should he worry about?” Kaila’s agent walked on the ground angrily Back and forth, waving his arms angrily.

She couldn't believe that her always shrewd client could be so stupid!

What a wretched man Jack Wayne was!What else does he have but his face?Endless gossip before marriage and restlessness after marriage?

"People outside the circle don't understand what kind of man he is, don't you inside the circle also understand? How many times have I reminded you? Why can't you listen to me once?" Laura was almost mad .

"Do you know how many brands have called me to revoke your endorsement? How many other projects you are talking about have stopped? Keira, you have lost not only money, but also your personal image and future career, If you continue like this, you will be finished!" Laura pinched the bridge of her nose and felt a headache.

Getting involved with a married actor, no matter how unhappy the other's marriage is, is not a good thing, or even a very bad thing.

Because the audience will not like to see such a morally flawed actor appearing on the big screen, especially Keira has always followed the high-cold character setting before, this time the exposure is undoubtedly on her image A layer of sewage was poured heavily, and if the treatment is not good, the future career will be waiting for a cliff-like downhill!

Looking at the projects that have been discontinued and the brands that are planning to change their spokespersons, you can see how fatal this matter is for her.

"In short, you should disappear for a while. Keep a low profile. I will deal with the public relations here. If necessary, I will call you." Looking at Keira who had been silent and sluggish, Laura was extremely helpless.

She is such a poor agent. Before the accident, the client didn't listen to her, but after the accident, she had to come forward to wipe the client's ass.

But what if you don't?They are an economic community, and it's hard for Keira to have an accident, and after so many years of cooperation, this girl was brought out by her alone, so it can be regarded as having feelings, if she doesn't care about her, who will care about her?

"Laura..." Keira, who had been dazed and unresponsive, suddenly hugged her and cried silently.

"Okay, okay, baby, hide for a while, I will try my best to minimize the impact of this matter." Seeing Keira like this, Laura's heart softened.

It was so miserable that she couldn't bear to continue talking about her.

Soon, Keira left Los Angeles and returned to her hometown, a small town in New York State.

At the same time, Nick, who had failed in his career and was emotionally frustrated, also decided to leave the bustling place of Manhattan and return to his hometown in New York State, a small town near New Jersey.

Looking nostalgicly at the house where he once lived with his wife and daughter, Nick turned his head and left with his luggage.

His most important thing is no longer here, so there is no need to miss it.

"Hey, Nick!" After getting off the bus, Nick heard someone calling his name.

"Old John!" He hugged the bearded old man with his arms outstretched in surprise.

"How did you come back? I heard you did well in Manhattan." Old John laughed and patted Nick on the shoulder.

"I'm divorced." For this old John who was very close to him, Nick did not hide his situation.

Anyway, sooner or later everyone will know that the small town is like this, and there are no secrets.

"Come back to relax?" Old John expressed his understanding.

"Almost." Nick smiled wryly.

While Old John and Nick were talking about old times, a low-key car drove into the town at night.

"Don't stay at home all the time, you can go out sometimes to relax and breathe, which is good for your mood." Laura told her client, trying to make her feel better.

"You are very different from before. Others can't recognize you." Looking at the depressed look of the other party, she couldn't help but say.

There's no one in Hollywood who hasn't had a knife in the face, and Keira certainly has.

Compared with before, she is not the same now. Apart from leaving home too early and not fully developed, she is also related to plastic surgery.

Keira smiled bitterly, yes, she is quite different from before.I have paid so much to get to this point, but I am about to collapse because of a relationship.

does it worth?She was a little confused.

On the other side, Nick has dragged his luggage back to his old home, a house that has been vacant for a long time.

"Ahem——" The dust made him cover his nose.

Maybe I should go buy some groceries tomorrow, or at least the insecticide.Looking at the cockroaches crawling under his feet, Nick thought blankly.
