Movie Master

Walking into the elevator, watching the elevator door slowly close, the smile on the corner of Lance's mouth relaxed and regained his calm.

Although Lance left without stopping just now, Harvey's suddenly froze smile was clearly seen from the corner of his vision - this was Harvey's only gaffe today. However, if it was Lance and someone suddenly revealed a secret that he thought no one knew, he would probably pause for half a second. This is a conditioned reflex.

Uma Thurman, Quentin-Tarantino (Quentin-Tarantino) and Harvey Weinstein are the iron triangle that is talked about in the independent film circle. The trio collaborated on "Pulp Fiction," "Kill Bill," and achieved unimaginable success. For a long time, Uma has been considered as Quentin’s muse, and only Quentin can illuminate Uma’s beauty; while Harvey is Quentin’s bole, and Quentin is Harvey’s lucky star—Mira Mike The rise of Sri Lanka Films started from "Pulp Fiction".

When Uma and Ethan-Hawke (Ethan-Hawke) walked into the wedding hall, many people expressed shock, because many people thought Uma and Quentin were a couple.

Recently, Uma and Ethan's marriage hit the rocks. There have been rumors in the circle that the intimate contact between Uma and Quentin during the filming of "Kill Bill" was the fuse. But almost no one knows that the romantic Harvey has been coveting Uma, just like collecting stamps.

But Lance knew that there was a dew/water marriage between Harvey and Uma. This is one of the advantages that rebirth brings.

So, out of the blue, Lance made Harvey panic for a while. It is estimated that Harvey will spend a lot of time covering up his secrets—he can ignore Uma, but he can't ignore Quentin. .

However, even so, there is no way for Lance to change the established fact that Miramax Films has no interest in "City of God". Standing at the door of the office building of Miramax Films, Lance looked back at the gray building, which was cold and hard, and the thin sunlight made the shadows on the ground gloom.

Lance was sure they would regret today's decision.

Miramax Films is Lance's last chance. After Harvey politely rejected "City of God", it is basically certain that the plan to find a suitable distribution company in Hollywood has been officially declared shattered.

This is not an accidental result, because in the last life, "City of God" was like this. There were no distribution companies in the North American continent or the European continent. In the end, it was picked up by Miramax Films and took over the distribution rights in North America.

Therefore, when formulating the distribution plan, Lance had already considered this situation, so he made two-handed preparations.

The best result is to find a suitable distribution company, and then a professional team will formulate distribution steps and publicity plans, relying on the strength of the distribution company to enter the stage of large international film festivals, and win more attention for the return to North America. But if that path doesn't work, Sundance will be Lance's first choice.

Founded in 1984, the Sundance Film Festival was founded by a generation of superstar Robert-Redford (Robert-Redford). Sundance-Kid). Over the past two decades, the Sundance Film Festival has grown into the world's premier independent film festival. Many emerging Hollywood directors regard it as a springboard to fame, and major Hollywood production companies are also very happy Think of it as a talent pool.

Every year, countless newcomers and independent films flock to Park City, located in the Great Salt Lake Valley of Utah.

There are countless film festivals around the world, but for independent films, Sundance is undoubtedly the top stage and the best springboard to enter Hollywood. This also makes more and more independent films sign up for Sundance every year. Often, less than 30 out of 300 films can be included in the list of exhibitors—in many cases, the competition will be even more intense.

In the past two weeks, Lance has been trying to find an indirect connection from his contacts and get a chance to talk face-to-face with Robert, but this is obviously not an easy task. Especially after leaving Diorama Films, things began to become more difficult. Lance knew that Ryan definitely "contributed". But this is also the result that Lance had foreseen before he decided to start his own company. He didn't take it to heart at all. Lance had a clear understanding of the priorities of the matter.

After being rejected by Miramax Films, Lance began to collect information and try to create a chance encounter. Although the behavior of besieging Robert directly was too abrupt and purposeful, and it was easy to be self-defeating, but Lance felt that it was worth giving it a go. As long as it works properly, everything is possible.

Lance noticed that recently, Robert had just finished filming a work, returned to Los Angeles for a short rest and adjustment for a few days, and then went to Salt Lake City to prepare for the opening of the 19th Sundance Film Festival. This is also Lance's best chance!

Placed on the table are the materials of Robert's work "Random Crisis", which was completed not long ago. The crew called on Helen-Mirren (Helen-Mirren), Willem-Dafoe (Willem-Dafoe) and many other big names to join in , produced and distributed by Twentieth Century Fox, sparked a lot of discussions during the filming period, and it is considered to be very likely to be the hit of next year's awards season.

"Did you miss dinner again? It's best not to let Theo know, otherwise Gawain and I will be scolded." A teasing voice came from the front, calling Lance's thoughts back from the document .

Even without looking up, Lance could tell who it was from the familiar voice and tone, "Don't worry, I won't complain to Theo." Looking up, it was indeed Ian Strelow standing in the hall . Today Ian changed into casual clothes. A dark blue sweater made his emerald green eyes extremely gentle. His short blond hair fell down casually without care, and he held a huge Box, "Why, no date tonight?" Ian's attire was obviously at home.

"I will go to Catherine's house to cook for her tonight." Ian said with a smile, and then looked back at Lance, "You know, it is necessary to show a soft side in front of women occasionally." Every move of this veteran in love/field is obviously carefully arranged.

Lance couldn't help laughing, "It's better not to be heard by Theo." Ian rolled his eyes directly, and muttered, "God, you are going to be thirty soon, Theo still puts You look like a child and worry that we will teach you badly. Only **** knows that you are the most cunning."

Lance showed an innocent expression, stood up and followed Ian, and walked into the kitchen, "I can swear, I am innocent. No matter what!" Then Ian saw the box in his hand put On the dining table, after opening it, there were twelve donuts, which immediately made Lance's smile bloom. He couldn't wait to take one, and sat down at the dining table to eat it.

Ian went to the kitchen again, and skillfully rummaged through the cabinets, "Why did everything in your house change places?"

"Really?" Lance thought for a while, and then suddenly realized, "Percy should have changed it. He said that everything in my house was too messy, so he rearranged everything. But, has there been any change? Why didn't I Noticed?" Ian ignored the latter sentence as if he didn't hear it.

He found the coffee cup, poured two cups of fresh coffee, then returned to the dining room, put a cup in front of Lance, "I saved half a piece of sugar for you." Of course Ian knew about Lance's habits, but considering The relationship between donuts, so I made adjustments, but I didn't expect the voice to fall, and saw Lance frowned. He could only point to the kitchen speechlessly, "Not enough to add by myself."

Lance waved his hand, indicating that he would finish eating the donut before going over.

Ignoring Lance's contented expression, Ian lowered his head and took a sip of coffee before he asked, "Have you found a suitable distribution company for your movie?" Ian's knowledge of movies is also very limited, But because of Lance's relationship, I only know a little bit, "I met a client at work recently, and I heard that it is the person in charge of a large-scale event such as an award ceremony~www.wuxiax.com~ And then in terms of distribution It seems that there are some contacts, if you need, I can ask him out for dinner and introduce you to him."

Listening to Ian's unfamiliar words, fragmented without a single thread, Lance laughed shamelessly, "If you really want to help, at least clarify the situation." Ian curled his lips, showing a "I'm helping you and you still dislike it, you're so courageous", Lance then restrained his smile, "What's the name of your client? Maybe I know him."

Ian is not one to meddle, and he is not one to make rash judgments. Therefore, Ian took the initiative to bring up this matter. It must be because this client has some connections, and he thought it might help, so he came to Los Angeles from Silicon Valley—otherwise it was just a matter of a phone call.

"Robert Redford, I'm not sure who he is, I just heard..." Ian was halfway through speaking, and then he saw the expression on Lance's face froze, with a look of astonishment. Ian pointed to the corner of his mouth, "Sunshine Boy, there is frosting on the corner of your mouth." He took a tissue from the side and handed it over, then took a sip of coffee calmly, "I heard that he seems to be a character, maybe he can help I'm busy."

Lance took the tissue, slowly put the donuts on top of the box, wiped the icing on the corners of his lips carefully, and nodded gently, "Yes, he can really help."

Then Ian saw a little light blooming in Lance's blue eyes, which became brighter and brighter, and the arc of his mouth was gently outlined. The curling aroma of coffee makes people intoxicated and full of energy, "Today's coffee is well brewed~www.wuxiax.com~ Book friends are welcome to come and read, the latest, fastest and hottest serial works are all here~www.wuxiax.com ~Mobile phone users please go to read.
