Chapter 477: 479

Madonna's pursuit of Hollywood can only be described as a repeated defeat.

It doesn't matter.

It's the producers who are losing money anyway.

Such as the guest star in vulgar novel, Queen Mai is not the key.

All in all, Queen McGregor, who has reached the pinnacle of her singing career, is always nostalgic for Hollywood.

The singer recently found a very large-scale project, naked surprise, which tells the story of a woman who is accused of murder for her lover's death in the process of love, and then gets rid of the crime step by step in court.

In general, naked shock is a mixture of instinct and presumption of innocence.

"Instinct" needless to say, "presumption of innocence" is a crime drama starred by Harrison Ford two years ago: a prosecutor is accused of murdering his lover, and after many frustrations in court, he finally finds out that the murderer is actually his wife.

The total box office of presumption of innocence in North America is more than 86 million US dollars, which is also a black horse compared with the production cost of 22 million US dollars.

Danielis and MGM's last year's "few good people" is roughly the same as "presumption of innocence".

"Naked surprise" takes the elements of "instinct" and "presumption of innocence".

In the original time and space, there is a lot of movement in naked surprise, which makes Simon have a lot of memories.

The selling point of this film is basically Madonna's passion.

However, it turns out that the audience is not so interested in the naked queen. Films with a budget of $30 million eventually took back more than $13 million at the box office.

"Maggie, I've seen the script, but I don't quite understand what else this film is going to use to attract audiences besides your personal large-scale participation?"

Madonna noticed that Simon's tone was obviously not very interested, and immediately said, "Simon, don't you think this play is much like instinct? Moreover, the type of film is still a very popular court crime film in the last two years. "

"Well, let's analyze it," Simon said as Madonna subconsciously came up to him, looked up and tried to stick it up. He stepped back a little and said: "the success of instinct is largely due to the controversy caused by the film. The high IQ heroine plays with the police. This kind of strong plot conflict is also a big selling point. "Presumption of innocence" sold well because of the wonderful plot and the final reversal of the film. So, you see, these two movies, um, may have passion plays, but the audience bought tickets to enter, but not for passion plays. "

Madonna saw Simon's retreat and came up again.

After divorcing Sean Penn, she broke up with Warren Beatty. The queen is now single.

"But Simon, you're talking about it all in naked shock."

"It's a pity, Maggie, that some elements or existence are not obvious," Simon said, shaking his head. "What I see is that the heroine sleeps all the key characters in the film and finally lets them help herself out. It's inferior to Catherine in instinct. Catherine is using her high IQ, desire is just desire, and she is even using desire to make herself into a more dangerous situation, playing heartbeat games with the hero with confidence. "

"Or, Simon, how about you help me revise the script, or you direct it yourself."

Madonna said, with a little hand over her, her index finger in Simon's suit pocket, and an obvious tease in her eyes.

Simon no longer stepped back, looked at Madonna's movements with great interest, and said with a smile, "Maggie, I have a girl tonight."

Sarah Michelle gella, who had been holding Simon's arm carefully, saw the man mention herself, raised her chin slightly, and looked at Madonna, who was also not tall.

Madonna just glanced at the girl and said, "little guy, will you leave Simon and me alone for a while?"

Queen McGregor's momentum was so strong that her natural tone suddenly made Sarah Michelle gella feel guilty and subconsciously looked at Simon.

Simon slightly shook his head to the girl, turned to Madonna, motioned to Sidney Pollack not far away, and said, "Maggie, Sidney and I still have something to talk about. Denise doesn't plan on the project of naked surprise. You can talk to other people."

"It's a pity," Madonna said in a cold voice when she saw Simon's direct refusal. She didn't pester any more, but her eyes were still full of resentment. "Besides, men are really unreliable. I didn't expect your taste to change so fast."

When Madonna walks away, Simon takes Sarah to Robert Redford, Sidney Pollack and Barbara Streisand who are chatting.

The three old Hollywood celebrities all rose in the 1960s and 1970s. The "old days" that they once cooperated with is one of the classic movies of the 1970s. Robert Redford and Barbara Streisand have a romance.In addition, the three are also CAA artists at this time.

After saying hello, Simon talked to Sidney Pollack about sugar trap.

Sidney Pollack is the original director of sugar trap. To be more careful, Simon doesn't think Pollack is suitable for this kind of suspense thriller with lawyer theme. Pollack's famous movies out of Africa and my fair lady are all in favor of romantic movies, especially in the past.

However, considering the old director's directing skills and the original factors, Simon still issued an invitation to pollack.

"Simon, I can be the director of the sugar trap, but I have one condition," Sidney Pollack said simply, "the choice of the film must be up to me."

Redford and Streisand are both human spirits. Pollack mentions this, and both of them find an excuse to go away.

Simon's performance is also straightforward, said: "of course, West Germany, but the hero has been determined, in addition to this, you can choose anyone else, as long as within the budget."

"I know daenerys has contacted Keanu Reeves," Sidney Pollack said. "But, Simon, I don't think Keanu is right."

Simon raised his eyebrows slightly: "why?"

"Keanu is more suitable for comedy, but sugar trap is a serious play."

"Maybe you should see Keanu's" Thriller "last year. West Germany, in this crime drama, Keanu plays a policeman, and his performance has been widely recognized by the critics."

"Well, Simon, let's be honest. I hope Tom Cruise can be the hero of sugar trap."

Simon's eyes narrowed slightly, and Michael owitz suddenly appeared in his mind.

Sidney Pollack is one of the first veteran filmmakers to join the talent agency in the process of CAA's rise. In the 1980s, two films, my fair lady and out of Africa, which pushed Sidney Pollack's directing career to the peak, are CAA's package projects.

For this reason, Sidney Pollack is Michael owitz's most ardent supporter.

Two years ago, Sidney Pollack was one of the few Hollywood filmmakers who publicly supported Michael owitz in the "infantry soldier" incident in which Michael owitz clashed with the famous screenwriter Joe ezerthaas.

This time, Sidney Pollack obviously hopes to take advantage of the opportunity of "sugar trap" to let CAA's Tom Cruise get rid of the dilemma of being blocked by danielis entertainment.

Although CAA terminated the agency contract with several filmmakers at the beginning, in fact, it was probably for the sake of compensation. Michael owitz has been keeping close contact with several filmmakers, and Simon just turned a blind eye to it.

After rain man, Tom Cruise's two commercial films born on July 4 and thunder ambition in recent years have both achieved success at the box office. However, due to the further strengthening of Denise Entertainment's influence in Hollywood, it is inevitable that many major studios will cooperate with Barry Levinson, Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise I have a little scruples.

Barry Levinson was supposed to be the most popular Oscar nomination in 1992. Bagsi disappeared. After danielis and paramount reached a cooperation last year, the big studio which had close ties with cruise also abandoned each other. As a result, cruise did not have a movie in 1991.

In fact, Simon didn't say anything about not allowing other studios to work with the three. Dustin Hoffman also appeared in captain hawk last year, and big ambition, which Tom Cruise worked with Columbia Pictures after leaving paramount, will also be released this summer.

On the surface, the careers of these filmmakers are actually normal.

Last year, Dustin Hoffman appeared in captain hawk, and Peter Cooper also urged Terry Semel to come forward to speak.

Simon was relieved, but he didn't change a fundamental attitude: Denise entertainment still won't work with the three filmmakers.

Meg Ryan's "lifting the ban" also started with the signing of a film contract with danielis entertainment, which is probably the reason why Sydney Pollack made the request today.

Michael owitz should hope that Tom Cruise and danielis entertainment can reach a cooperation, so as to convey a signal of complete reconciliation between cruise and danielis entertainment to the outside world, so as to avoid the decline of his career caused by the studio's scruples.

Simon didn't show any displeasure at Sidney Pollack's straightforward request. He just shook his head and said, "Sidney, if you insist on this, I can only say I'm sorry. I hope we can cooperate again in the future."

Sidney Pollack was a little angry when he saw Simon make such a statement and said, "Simon, it's been a long time. I don't understand why you still cling to it. You're already a big shot. You shouldn't haggle over these little things. "

"In West Germany, I always think that the idea that some people should be generous and forgiven because they are" big men "is basically blackmail, a kind of blackmail from the weak to the strong. For those I don't want to forgive, I'm sorry, I don't forgive any of them. Moreover, I think I've been generous enough. I didn't directly aim at them. Up to now, they've all had a very good life, haven't they? So don't ask me for more. "Simon said, no longer waiting for Sidney Pollack's response, raised his glass to the other side, and walked away.

Sarah Michelle gella has been following Simon all the time, from Madonna to Sidney Pollack, Barbara Streisand, Robert Redford, and many other big people at the party. After more than two hours of right time, the girl seems to have entered another world.

It's incredible to think about it.

Sarah's mother is a poor little actress, because she has not been able to get ahead, so she can only place her hope on her daughter. From the age of four, the girl has been participating in all kinds of auditions, early contact with the vanity fair circle, which also makes Sarah more precocious than girls of the same age.

The role of Julie, Susan's daughter in desperate housewives, is Sarah's first significant permanent role in TV series in more than ten years. In addition, the project is said to be created by vestro himself. Both mother and daughter think it will be a breakthrough for Sarah.

Then, this afternoon, the agency suddenly came a message that the mother and daughter thought it was a joke at first. Westero wanted to see Sarah.

After repeatedly confirming that it wasn't a joke, Sarah clearly realized her mother's almost tearful emotion.

After having a heart to heart talk with her daughter, the wma made another arrangement. Sarah was sent to Simon this evening.

Simon left Barbara Streisand's party with Sarah Michelle gella near ten o'clock.

Originally, I felt that the style of "sugar trap" did not match that of Sidney pollack. In the original time and space, the reason why this project was directed by Sidney Pollack was obviously a package project of CAA in Simon's view.

Michael owitz often uses diversity as an excuse to let directors who are used to one style direct fields that the other has never been involved in.

Many directors have their own styles, so it seems to Simon that this is a bit of a mess.

What's more, Michael owitz's forced efforts to piece together large-scale movies with large budget inevitably lead to the failure of some blockbusters.

Because it can save a lot of energy for the studio, the project packaging mechanism is still popular in Hollywood, but Denise entertainment is a very strong exception.

Unless Simon thinks it's really appropriate, neither CAA, wma, nor ICM can force a whole team's packaging project into the hands of Denise entertainment.

Since Sidney Pollack didn't have a deal, Simon decided to choose other directors.

It wasn't until he returned to domay point that Simon, who had been thinking about some things on the way, realized what happened to the girl beside him.

Although she was young, Sarah Michelle gella clearly knew what was going on. The girl not only didn't show much stage fright, but also clumsily tried to tease the man beside her.
