[American Entertainment] Bright life

As awards season approaches in December, Sterling gets busy.

WMA puts the focus of public relations on Grace's film "Growing Education" supported by one person. Sterling has already analyzed the reason. Grace's role in "Julie and Julia" is similar to Compared with Meryl Streep, there is no natural advantage. "Growth Education" can better reflect Grace's control over characters and movies, but this does not mean that "Growth Education" has too many advantages.

The disadvantage of "Growing Education" is also obvious. First of all, because it is a British film, this is not to say that British films are not easy to have a place in the awards season. It has a place, but the background of "Growth Education" is the UK in the 60s, and it is about the British education system, which limits the audience of "Growth Education", which leads to its dismal box office. Compared with Grace's previous acting That's true of any movie I've ever made.In other words, whether "Growth Education" is well-received or not, it lacks in popularity. Looking at the previous Oscars, the Academy judges do not simply only pay attention to artistry, they still prefer movies that achieve a delicate balance between artistry and commerciality.

Secondly, the production company of "Growth Education" is not the six major film companies in Hollywood-now it is really the six major film companies. MGM reported bankruptcy not long ago. Although it has not been confirmed, people with a discerning eye It can be seen that MGM is really in decline-there is no way to get help from the production company to build momentum and public relations. Although "Julie and Julia" is produced by Columbia Pictures, Sony is behind it.

In any case, after considering the pros and cons, WMA still focused on "Growth Education", and then Sterling had to worry about his client's share.To be honest, Sterling didn't tell Grace about this. He didn't need a client who didn't seek to make progress and was not ambitious when he should be to pour cold water on him.

Apart from being doubly worried, Sterling was also worried about one thing, which was related to the sequel of "Sherlock Holmes".This matter has not been settled for a day, and Sterling has been unable to let it go. This is the disadvantage of obsessive-compulsive disorder. In the end, Sterling couldn't hold it anymore, so he asked Grace to openly tell the matter.

Then Grace said, "I don't care about it anymore, I've found new fun now."

Sterling: "...WHAT!"

Grace was puzzled: "Shouldn't you breathe a sigh of relief? At that time, you seemed to have encountered an impossible task."

Sterling held his breath and asked, "Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"You didn't ask either. Typical evasive psychology, isn't it?" Grace said solemnly, but Sterling's face turned hideous for a moment. At this moment, he actually wanted to pick up a stack of manuscripts not far away and throw them at Grace. Fortunately, before he took any action, he spotted the words on it, stared at it for a while and asked Grace: "What is this? Your new fun?"

"If you must know, it's a by-product of my new fun." Grace said nonchalantly.

Sterling took the stack of manuscripts and said angrily: "If you can condescend to tell me what your new pleasure is, then I will be very grateful."

Grace's new interest now is the 24 Billy case, and it has two branches, one is to adapt "24 Billy" into a movie script, and the other is to conduct academic research from a new angle.As for the "by-product" she said, it is a transitional work that advances the number of multiple personalities to 24. It is a novelette written according to the protagonist having a dual personality, a quadruple personality and an octet personality.

Sterling responded absently, most of his attention was still on the stack of manuscripts, until Grace stretched out her leg and kicked him, which hit his calf: "Am I boring you?"

The corner of Sterling's mouth twitched when he came back to his senses: "How did you have the nerve to say such a thing, Dr. Green? When I talked to you before, you listened carefully several times. Yes, What you said bored me, okay. You can continue to study your multiple personalities, and I, I think this is more interesting now." He raised the manuscript in his hand.

Grace tilted her head and smiled innocently: "Then goodbye."

Sterling: "..."

Sterling left with great backbone, and only remembered the 24 Billy stories on the way back to the office. Isn't this the role Leonardo has always wanted to play?So his client is now researching this story because he's in love?

Sterling couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. If he insisted on describing it, it would be like the reluctance and discomfort of his daughter marrying someone else, as well as jealousy...or more aptly: Grace is now "married a daughter-in-law" Forget mother", Sterling is the 'mother' here.

No, this description is just a resemblance in appearance.

Perhaps, the term "seeing sex and forgetting friends" is more similar.

Anyway, Sterling is right to be sour in his heart, he curled his lips, so it doesn't matter who has a movie script, he now has three novels, and he will take care of the publication of Grace's works and other matters, he ——

Sterling finally came to his senses now, wouldn't Grace deliberately write a few novels for no reason, so it was written specifically for him to publish?No, this must be his delusion, Grace Green is a rational superstar who has no emotional nerves, so she would not do such a heart-warming thing.Even if her intention was so, it was probably a conspiracy she thought up to continue enslaving him.

After a while, Sterling squeezed out a word: "Shit!"

He's not touched, is he?

... Mr. Broker can do whatever he says.

The sequel to "Sherlock Holmes", about the accident of adapting Irene Adler and Moriarty as the same person, did not become a story, and the first part of "Sherlock Holmes" will be released on Christmas Eve, Now it is in the process of intensive publicity.

Unlike Grace's leisure, "Sherlock Holmes" Robert Downey Jr. is currently in a state of rush.

Grace did not continue filming this year like last year, and her two films this year, "Agent Sauter" and "Inception", both finished filming in October. It was also completed last month.Downey took on three films this year. In addition to "Iron Man 2", which was filmed in the first half of the year, and a film "Love and Doubt" in which he starred as a supporting role in the second half of the year, there is also a comedy film "Due Date" that started shooting recently. ", and his co-director is Todd Phillips, the director of this year's highest-grossing R-rated comedy film "The Hangover", and the other protagonist is also the star of "The Hangover", Zach Galifianakis .

But that's the case, Donnie is working harder than Grace to promote "Sherlock Holmes"-this is as if Grace is working hard to promote "Sherlock Holmes".

Of course, this has something to do with Downey being the absolute protagonist of "Sherlock Holmes", while Grace's role is at best a supporting role, even though Grace's salary is second only to Downey in "Sherlock Holmes".

However, it’s not to say that Grace didn’t contribute to the Sherlock Holmes promotion, and in fact she contributed to a great promotional story: The $500 Portrait Accident.

Earlier, Downey got involved in "Toby's Story" and said that he would tell the story of him being Grace's "victim" on the show. In "The Conan Show", he told the story in an all-round and vivid way, and brought the painting to the scene.

That's interesting.

"How dare he tell such a thing?" Leonardo complained to Toby when he attended a party held by an acquaintance.

Toby sighed in his heart: "I have to make sure, you are disapproving of Downey's actions, not indirect approval of his actions, right?"

Leonardo was puzzled: "Why should I agree with his approach in a roundabout way?"

Toby spread his hands: "Because you are ashamed to tell this kind of "I am a goldfish swimming and swimming" story."

Leonardo didn't care, "Can it be the same? Grace and I are in a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship."

"Are these two things related? Well, you're Dr. Green's boyfriend, okay?" Toby said perfunctorily in an unbearable tone, "But really, the thing Downey talked about doesn't matter. It happened last year, that is to say, it happened earlier than your story - if you stare at me again, this is still a fact, and you have to admit it, you are just jealous."

Leonardo didn't speak, it was a tacit agreement.

In fact, Toby also envied Donnie and hated him. He bought a painting by Grace for $500. He definitely made a profit, okay?Thinking of this, Toby encouraged Leonardo: "In this case, you can buy that painting back from Donnie."

Leonardo thought for a while, then pretended to be generous and said: "Why should I buy a painting of another man, I can ask Grace to paint me a portrait of myself."

Toby had already started to raise his eyebrows, but Leonardo continued on his own, "Besides, portraits are not very rare, Grace is because I specially adapted "24 Billys" into What about the movie script?"

Toby's eyebrows were about to fly, and then he unceremoniously sprayed Leonardo, who seemed to be understated but in fact absolutely complacent: "Get out!"

If it wasn't Leonardo or a goldfish, Toby would have doubted whether he had flashed it specially, or the kind of flash that first suppresses and then rises.

...that is not certain.

In addition, Steven Moffat, the bystander of the $500 accident, still remembered it after watching this episode of "Conan Show", but he chose to call Grace after watching it. The phone call, not to express any opinion on this matter, the opinion he wanted to express was expressed at that time, but, "Grace, do you remember what we said that you will guest star in "Sherlock"? I Now here's an idea, how would you like to play Mycroft and Sherlock's sister?"
