Chapter 59: 059

Simon heard the query from the female reporter of variety show, but he just nodded: "yes, the truth is very simple. If I didn't do these jobs myself, but I wrote down my name, there would be a lot of people looking for me in the future."

Hearing Simon say so, many audiences who had been holding similar questions were suddenly surprised.

There are shooters in any circle, and Hollywood is no exception.

However, in terms of the quality of "Lola Run", there is a very slim chance that a dozen Hollywood filmmakers who are definitely excellent will be Gunners for a young man at the same time.

What's more, although most people don't know Simon's background, no matter what his identity is, there is no need for him to do so. It involves professional film making skills, so it's too easy to be debunked.

It's just that.

If a lot of the behind the scenes work of "Lola Run" is done by the young people on stage, it's just incredible.

"Variety" female reporter obviously is this kind of mood, heard Simon's reply, immediately asked: "so, how do you do it?"

Simon, with a smile on his face, said, "Miss Trevor, your question is hard to answer. However, I have been busy with this film for six months since I started writing the script. During this period, I have experienced many twists and turns, and met many people who are willing to help me, such as Bob, Jenny, Catherine, director Brian De Palma, Mr. David giller, my agent Jonathan, and so on. In retrospect, I am very lucky, because many film makers with dreams are hard to get such opportunities. Here, I want to thank all of them again. At the same time, I also hope I can have the opportunity to help some people in the future. "

Although she couldn't get a satisfactory answer, Jane Trevor nodded her head seriously and sat down again.

Then, at the sign of Robert Redford, many people raised their hands again.

There are not many media reporters who can come to park city. Robert basically knows all of them and is not in a hurry. This time, he ordered a young boy sitting in the back row.

The boy couldn't wait for the microphone to come and said, "Simon, your movie is so cool. I really hope I can make it one day. So, I want to know, how did you learn this, or which film academy did you go to? "

Simon shook his head and said with a smile, "I haven't been to film school. As for film skills, it should be self-taught. However, my personal situation is somewhat different from yours. So, if you want to be a director, I suggest you enter a professional film academy. "

There are many well-known self-taught directors in Hollywood, including Robert Redford who is sitting on the stage at this time.

However, hearing Simon's reply, many people in the screening hall were still surprised.

Although Simon's specific age is not clear, he is very young at first sight. If he studied systematically in the film and television major at the top film academy and mastered a series of skills, it's natural for him to produce "Lola Run".

But only by self-study, people who have tried this kind of thing know how many difficulties they will encounter and how many detours they will take, so it's incredible to be able to achieve the present level.

Everyone was surprised, but Janet, who had been sitting quietly next to Simon, blinked. She suddenly remembered the pile of film books Simon had bought a few months ago.

Little bastard, it must be bullshit.

However.

It's really strange.

The boy sat down, and Robert Redford relinquished the right to ask questions to a media reporter.

The following Q & a session lasted until 12 o'clock at noon before the Sundance Premiere of "Lola Run" was announced.

Simon doesn't have to show the film for the rest of the festival. In fact, many filmmakers will basically leave Park City after the weekend premiere. Until the closing ceremony of the film festival, if you receive the award news, you will send representatives again.

On Sunday afternoon, Simon re communicated with Peter Butler about his interview. In the evening, they put Jennifer Leibold and Lisa Collins on the plane to New Haven, Connecticut, where Yale University is located.

Simon, however, had no leisure at all.

As soon as the premiere of "Lola Run" was over, he was surrounded by several independent film distributors who came to Sundance to try to pick up the leak, trying to get in touch with each other.

A fat man even offered a buyout price of $2 million, which was more generous than fox, but he only wanted to pay a deposit of $200000, and the rest needed to be settled after the film was released.

Simon laughed and scolded Harvey in his heart, you big liar, and then ignored him.

On Monday, as soon as he got up in the morning, Simon got a call from Katherine from Los Angeles. Then Robert Redford called and asked him to go to the Sundance Institute.Simon drove to the city, brought back a thick stack of newspapers from the Sundance Institute with the film review of "Lola Run" and bought breakfast by the way.

Back at the Resort Apartment, it's more than 9 a.m.

Park City weather is still cold, no outsiders, Janet began to show her true colors, like a little lazy cat in bed refused to get up. Seeing the newspaper Simon brought back, he gave birth to some spirit. Ah ah, he asked Simon to bring the newspaper and read it with interest.

"Variety, um, the unknown Sundance suddenly appeared an amazing anti type masterpiece," Lola Run. ". This film, written and directed by new director Simon westero, vividly shows the meaning of "Butterfly Effect" to the audience through a very interesting three-stage film mode. At the same time, the film on the existence of countless possibilities of life is also memorable. Balabala, I'll change another one. "

After reading a few sentences, Janet scanned them at a glance, and then couldn't wait to pick up another newspaper: "well, the Hollywood Reporter seems to be very powerful, too. What surprised me most is Simon westero's skillful use of a series of film techniques. The whole film has reached a top level in lens, color, soundtrack, editing and so on. It's not like a low-cost film with a production budget of less than 1 million US dollars. It's said that Simon westero has done a lot of the work himself. I seem to have seen it Another rising Hollywood genius. It's well written and reasonable. Let me see again. Eh, Peter has also written a film review. Didn't you agree with him to release it after the film festival? Oh, it's just a film review. "

After reading Peter Butler's film reviews published in the Los Angeles Times, and flipping through the remaining newspapers, Janet threw them aside and excitedly leaned out of the bed with a thin white body: "little boy, you're going to be famous. Come on, let your sister kiss you first."

Simon pushed Janet back to bed and said, "I don't kiss a lazy woman who doesn't even brush her teeth."

"Wu, you dislike me. Be careful that I call four brothers to beat you together."

Simon laughed and helped the woman cover the opened corner of the quilt, and said: "call another cousin or something, make up five, and take a baseball bat."

"Well, it seems that there is no cousin."

After playing for a while, the telephone in the living room rang again. Simon saw that the woman had buried her face in the pillow. He went to kiss her round shoulder and said, "get up quickly. I'll answer the phone first."

The phone call is from Jonathan Friedman. He just went to work in Los Angeles. His agent has also seen the high praise of "Lola Run" on several mainstream Hollywood print media, congratulating Simon, and telling him that Orion film president Mike medova called him early in the morning to inquire about some news about Simon's film, which should be about "Lola Run" I'm interested in the release of run.

After more than ten minutes of talking, just as she was about to hang up, Sandra Bullock just arrived at Jonathan's office and had another chat.

Wma headquarters in Camino street, Los Angeles.

Sandra said goodbye to Simon, gently lowered the receiver and sat down across from Jonathan's desk.

"Well," Jonathan Friedman handed her a piece of information and said, "back to the future 2 is in the pipeline and has recently started casting. Your qualifications were a little shallow, but I saw in several newspapers in the morning that I appreciated your performance in "Lola Run". So, you get ready first, and I'll try to get you through the first audition. Later, it depends on the specific situation. "

"Back to the future" ah, the year before last, the North American box office number one, Steven Spielberg as producer, directed by Robert zemagis, Sandra is clear.

Just, after playing "Lola Run", Sandra just got a supporting role in a spring TV series recently.

After flipping through the audition materials, Sandra was still a little unsure: "Joe, is this the audition for the heroine?"

"Of course," Jonathan Friedman nodded with a smile, "but don't expect too much. In the first round, there will be at least hundreds of girls competing for the role. Also, you talk to Simon and ask him to cut a clip of your performance in Lola Run. Give it to me before Friday and I'll transfer it to the cast of back to the future 2

"Well, I will," Sandra nodded, but added, "but Joe, Simon won't be back from Park City until next week. Besides, I, I don't know the phone number of his residence. "

Jonathan wrote down a series of numbers on the note paper with a smile, handed them to Sandra, and said, "since it's a film festival, there must be no shortage of all kinds of equipment in Park City, and the copies are also there, so you can ask him to cut them and send them back or ask someone to bring them back."

After another chat, Sandra got up and left Jonathan's office, only to find that Courtney Cox, another client of the agent, was sitting outside.

Sandra knows that Simon first invited Courtney to take part in "Lola Run", and Courtney naturally knows that Lola's role finally falls on Sandra. Now, suddenly meet each other, two people are inexplicably a bit embarrassed, as if nothing happened to nod to each other, this just passed.Courtney knew exactly why Jonathan called her here today. Back to the future 2 starts casting, which is a big event in Hollywood.

Noticing Sandra's audition materials, Courtney remembers the film review of "Lola Run" she saw on "Hollywood Reporter" at breakfast, and somehow she has a strong sense of crisis.

The hero of back to the future 2 must still be Michael fox. So, under Jonathan's name, there are at least three people who are suitable for the heroine of back to the future 2, Elizabeth sue, herself, and Sandra Bullock who just left.

With this in mind, Courtney suddenly finds out that Elizabeth Sue plays the butterfly effect and Sandra Bullock plays Lola Run. These two movies are all related to him.

And I don't care about myself.

There was a chance.

Now.

I hope "Lola Run" doesn't make a big impact.

If you think about it carefully, it's just a low-cost independent film, and the theme is so far away from the mainstream. Even though it has won some praise, it should not make much waves in Hollywood.

With a deep breath and no longer thinking about the mess, Courtney pushed the door and walked into the agent's office at Owen Wright's test.

About the same time.

Fox Studios, not far from wma headquarters.

Fox President Ronald Goldberg called Peter Sanders to his office early in the morning.

When they sat down in the reception area, Ronald Goldberg handed Peter Sanders some excerpts from the reviews of "Lola Run" just compiled by his secretary, saying: "this should be the work of the screenwriter of" Butterfly Effect ". Did you talk to me on the phone last week?"

Peter Sanders had actually seen the reviews of "Lola Run." he turned over the excerpts and nodded, "yes, that's it."

Ronald Goldberg heard Peter Sanders confirm and said, "haven't you talked to him already? Why didn't I see the result?"

Peter Sanders put his film review on the coffee table in front of him and said, "that young man wants to share the contract."

Ronald Goldberg slowly took out a cigar and was trimming it. After hearing this, he shook his head and laughed: "it's really a little guy who doesn't know the height of the world. In that case, forget it. Let him go to someone else. "

Peter Sandton stopped and said, "Ronald, there's something else about him."

So Peter Sanders gave a brief account of Simon's age and some of the publicity programs they talked about that day.

After listening, Ronald Goldberg found that his cigar had fallen to the ground at some time. He picked it up and threw it aside. However, his eyes were still fixed on Peter Sanders: "18 years old, are you sure it's true?"
