Chapter 744

"Hello..."

In front of a detached house in suburban Boston, Margaret Robbie, dressed in a business suit, looked at the old man who had just opened the door and asked, "I want to find Ronald Paquin."

The old man looked at her strangely and nodded, "I am."

Margot Robbie was sure again, "are you father Paquin?"

"Yes." The old man replied positively, "that's right."

"I'm Sasha pever, a reporter for the Boston Globe." Margot Robbie quickly introduced himself, then opened his backpack and took out the necessary tools for the interview. "Can I ask you a few questions?"

Father Paquin looked very kind. "Yes, please."

Murphy makes a gesture, and the photographer in the room moves quickly to the back of the old actor who plays father Paquin. The camera set up above stanicon starts to capture a close-up of Margot Robbie.

After the honing of city of darkness, Margot Robbie's acting skills are much worse than those of Meryl Streep and other acting schools, but compared with the pure vase in the past, it can be said that she has made a lot of progress.

On the whole, Murphy is quite satisfied with her performance in "focus".

"We interviewed a few men who were with you in St. John's Baptist Church as children." Margot Robbie cleanly prepared his pen and notebook. "They said you molested boys there. Is that true?"

As if the question was unexpected, father Paquin hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "yes, I've been a fool. But I've never felt pleasure in it. "

Margot Robbie, as if the lost man had found his way, continued to ask as he recorded, "well, do you admit that you molested a boy at St. John's Baptist?"

"Yes! Yes... " Father Paquin nodded his head. "As I just said, I don't feel pleasure in it. You have to understand that!"

"All right. But... " Margot Robbie kept asking, "can you tell me the location? And what have you done to these boys? "

"I want to make it clear that I've never raped anyone." Father Paquin sighed. "There's a difference. I know it."

Margot Robbie asked, "how do you know?"

"Because I was raped." Father Paquin told a surprising truth.

"Sorry, sorry..." Margot Robbie couldn't believe what he said, "who raped you?"

“CUT！” Murphy exclaimed with satisfaction, "this one's over! Ten minutes off! "

"Maggie's performance is getting better and better." Gail gado came from behind.

Murphy nodded. "The acting has improved a lot."

Although acting is a very subjective judgment, Margot Robbie is no longer a pure flower vase actor.

"That's right." Gail gado handed over a document, "this is part of the film's publicity plan. Carla just faxed it. You need to sign it."

Murphy took it, flipped through it, took Gail gado's pen and signed his name on the last page.

In the 20th century, fox's early publicity of this film has been started long ago, and the publicity effect is surprisingly good with the wave of media exposing Catholic scandals that has not dissipated.

What Kara Firth needs to be signed by Murphy is the third stage of publicity planning.

The first stage of publicity ended when the film started shooting. At present, the publicity of focus is in the second stage.

According to the tradition and habits of Hollywood, the project and preparation period of focus is the first stage of film publicity.

At this stage, Hollywood marketing companies are generally responsible for the research on the script concept, film naming, alternative directors, actors and other creators' market prospects. At the same time, they should also consider the commercial elements that can be implanted in the existing scripts, and test and study the potential commercial brands, topics and film positioning.

The key to the success of the whole film marketing is to design the additional products and profit in the distribution mode according to the script and positioning at the early stage of the film shooting.

The second stage of marketing is naturally after the film starts shooting.

At this stage, the Hollywood marketing company will implement and supervise the marketing plan formulated during the project approval period. For example, we should conduct substantive negotiation and cooperation on the implanted brand, evaluate and monitor the influence of the advertising content of the implanted brand on the film and manufacturers, collect and produce EPK materials, and make material preparation for the video clips of the film's follow-up publicity, plan the next step of business cooperation and channel cooperation, and analyze the stills, gags and materials that can be used for communication during the shooting period of the film Carry out the new culture communication that does not affect the spoiler.

In the Hollywood film system, generally in the early or middle stage of the film shooting, we begin to carry out advertising implantation for the film, which is different from simply making money on the brand implantation. The implantation under the Hollywood marketing mode is often to achieve the bundling marketing effect.Even if the theme of "focus" is very serious, there are sponsors and advertisements, such as the cars of the protagonists. However, Murphy's handling is more cautious, which will not make people feel deliberate.

The third stage is mainly the pre screening publicity of the film, which is part of the plan signed by Murphy. It is mainly Fox's momentum for focus in the 20th century before and after the Venice Film Festival.

Now that Murphy and focus have won tickets to the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival, their goal is of course the golden lion.

After signing, he talked with Gail gado about other aspects of work. Murphy once again publicized the beginning of shooting. The shooting here only lasted half an afternoon, and he announced that he had finished work and returned to the hotel.

The shooting progress is very smooth, and all the shots can be completed within the planned time. Therefore, Murphy is not in a hurry to rush. After all, there are not many shots left. Although the location shooting in Boston has encountered troubles such as Catholic harassment and small-scale protestations of believers, with the help of the Boston Globe and Robbie Robinson Next, it didn't drag down the normal work of the crew too much.

Sometimes, it's hard for Murphy to understand why some believers refuse to believe that there are so many incidents of Catholicism?

People like him who don't believe in Buddhism can't understand the thoughts of those people.

In the next few days, Murphy still led the crew around the Boston area. Because there were few outdoor scenes and the shooting locations in Boston area were very scattered, the work efficiency of the crew was far less than that of shooting in the studio.

During this period, those reporters from the "focus" column also came to the troupe to take pictures with the reporters who played them. This is also a good publicity material for the film in the future.

Murphy has had many exchanges with these reporters, and they always leave a good impression on him.

Frankly speaking, this is the most professional journalists he has met since he came to Hollywood or even the United States.

The investigation team of that year restored the truth hidden and hidden by the church from the old paper pile and the mouth of the people involved in the case in the way of Yugong moving mountains. Of course, this process is far less exciting than going deep into the tiger's den to steal an important document in the action film, and it is not as wonderful as the confrontation in court in the court film, All the people's efforts and persistence, their resentment towards the priests involved in the case, their responsibility to protect the children, and their persistence in upholding the truth have all condensed into a stack of thin newspapers.

They adopted the most primitive method to select the priests who are frequently transferred from the list, and then verify them. This is a boring process. The invisible competition between the weak four team members and the illegal priests hidden in several of their own name lists is visualized through these boring materials.

Here, the form power of traditional media, or more accurately, paper media is obviously far beyond the modern media form.

The reliance on information may still play an important role in the contemporary new media industry, but it is far less shocking than the huge database of traditional media. We can not only see the degree of careful preservation and induction of past information by modern American newspapers, but also feel the media with real professional ethics Practice the spirit of practitioners.

Murphy and Carla Firth, who have been engaged in this industry, don't have that spirit.

Murphy knows very well that in this film, he doesn't need to shape the feeling of the weak of traditional media, but to show its strength, courage and tenacity.

Filming in the Boston area continued until the end of February. On the afternoon of February 26, after filming a street scene dialogue between Jonah hill and James Franco, Murphy officially announced that all filming was over, and all the crew could leave Boston to enjoy their vacation.

Murphy personally escorted the film and returned to Los Angeles. After returning to Los Angeles, he did not have time to rest, nor did he immediately start the post production of the film. Instead, he made the final preparations for the upcoming Oscar ceremony.

The 86th Academy Awards ceremony will be held on March 3. Due to the busy shooting before, Murphy and Gail gado didn't even prepare the dress.

Fortunately, he said, it's OK to find a more suitable dark suit, but Gail gado's dress is very troublesome, and now it's too late to order.

Fortunately, Gail gado has never worn the stock, although it is last year's style, but it is also a private custom, do not worry about the collision with other people.

With the final preparations, the 86th Academy Awards ceremony is coming.
