"Anyway, Congratulations, Jane. You've made a very good film." In the middle of the not so spacious living room, Adrian raised his glass to Jane Campion. "At the same time, I also congratulated Harvey and holly for winning the best actor and actress in Venice. Harvey, in particular, did not have the leisurely feeling of Mr. wolf in" vulgar novel ". When I saw it for the first time, I didn't recognize it at all. I almost couldn't help asking Jane: Hey, what are you from From the tribe of Li. "
Around several people burst out a burst of laughter, attracted people standing in its place to talk repeatedly sidelong eyes.
"Thank you, ed. without your support, I don't know how long it will take to finish this movie." Campion said with some emotion.
"Don't say that, Jane. I'm just in time. Good movies never lack investors. Even without me, there will be other people who will support you in making this film. " Adrian said modestly, then thought of something: "by the way, if your manuscript is ready, I can take it back to Los Angeles, so that it can be published at the same time as piano lesson is officially released."
"No problem. I'll have it brought to you later." Campion nodded excitedly, looking as if he were a teenager.
This is the advantage of having a publishing company. It was also one of the factors to persuade Campion to fictionalize the film and publish it.
After a few more words, Adrian casually made an excuse to leave the crowd. Although Campion hosted the party in his apartment in Sydney, many people were invited to come, so they all stood or sat very closely. Adrian couldn't find a quiet corner.
Finally, he looked left and right, and after the men and women on the balcony left, he went to Shi ran. Sydney is brightly lit in the night. Campion's apartment location is well chosen. Since you can see the gorgeous night view and the charming sea view, the sea breeze slightly blows on your face, and it seems that you can still smell the fishy smell. Adrian stretched out his arms and stretched hard. He took a deep breath, but then he yawned.
He arrived in Sydney yesterday. Los Angeles to Sydney is one of the longest direct flights in the world, with at least six time zones and a day changing line. Such a long flight time, only 24 hours is not able to adjust, so he has always been a little uncomfortable, plus to cope with Campion and other people, even if Adrian is known as energetic, he still feels a little tired.
To be frank, he doesn't really like female directors, especially those who make literary films. This is not to say that he is sexist. It is just that women always mix too much sensibility in directing. If it is used properly, it will be very attractive, but if it is excessive, it will be very affectable and awkward.
In Adrian's opinion, if a female director really wants to exercise her ability, she might as well direct two more action films and have a good balance between rationality and sensibility. Although Lenny rifenstar made a lot of films for the Nazis, her grasp of this balance is not comparable to that of these female directors nowadays.
Even so, there are still many people who like this affectation style, they think this is the style of female directors. Well, it has nothing to do with Adrian. As long as piano lessons can add a mark to his record, he doesn't care about affectation or not.
In this way, "piano lesson" can be arranged for release first, and winning the Venice Golden Lion award is also a publicity stunt. Adrian looked at the shadowy skyscrapers and thought about it. At this time, the voice of opening the door came from the side, a tall and graceful figure immediately walked to the balcony, and put his hands on the platform and sighed gently.
She then found that there were others on the balcony, a little surprised and then showed an apologetic expression.
"Sorry, I didn't think there was anyone here." The girl said with a smile. She was wearing a white high-collar sweater, jeans trousers and high-heeled leather boots. Her facial features were angular and angular, but she had a soft feeling only for women. The indoor light was transmitted and hit her face, which made her light blue eyes particularly beautiful.
She is not so beautiful, but she has an indescribable temperament. Just then the sea breeze blows, and she reaches out to brush her hair, which is very delicious.
"It doesn't matter," Adrian spread out his hand gracefully. "I wanted to be alone, so I came to the balcony. It's good here. It's suitable for quiet thinking. The only regret is that It's a little cold. "
The girl chuckled and said, "of course you feel cold when you wear so little."
"I can't help it. I'm in a hurry and forget to bring my clothes," Adrian complained. "It's still summer in Los Angeles."
"Are you from Los Angeles?" The girl looked curious.
"Yes, Jane's film was invested and released by me. This time I won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival. Of course, I would like to come here to express my congratulations." Adrian said, gesturing.
"So you are the one..." The girl looked up and thought about it for a long time. At last, she had to smile bitterly and look at Adrian: "sorry, I should have remembered it. I heard it when I came.""It doesn't matter," Adrian shook his head indifferently, then held out his hand. "Adrian Cowell, nice to meet you. You can call me Adrian or ed
"Catherine Alice Blanchett, please call me Kate." The girl shook hands with him and said, "nice to meet you, ED, too."
Although it has been confirmed in the heart, Adrian can't help but sigh after hearing the name.
"I believe many people, especially men, have said that to you, but I have to repeat that. You are beautiful, Kate." Adrian's mouth slightly cocked up, drawing a very good arc.
"Beautiful?" Blanchett suddenly sighed. "I'm sorry, most people don't think so. They always say that my facial features are too hard, sometimes more like a man, and there's still a long way to go from the word" beautiful. "
Even the "Queen" of the future is still a young woman with a little green and self-confidence. Adrian in the heart of a little bit of emotion, her interest is also stronger.
"I think you may have misunderstood something, Kate," Adrian said, taking his time. "What you mean by 'beautiful' is exactly 'pretty'
"This Is there any difference? " Blanchett looked at Adrian in disbelief.
"Of course, the former is a feeling, and the latter is just a description, a description of appearance." Adrian looked at Blanchett without blinking. "I heard a saying, Kate. I think it's right. There are only lazy women in the world. There are no ugly women."
He did not cover up the appreciation in his eyes: "yes, whether a woman is beautiful or not depends on whether she can dress up, make up, dress and show herself. But if these do not conform to her temperament or even contradict, can this woman be regarded as beautiful? Beauty is a feeling, which is not only from appearance but also from temperament. Although we have known each other for a few minutes, we don't know each other, but your temperament is quite good... "
At this point Adrian suddenly closed his mouth and looked at Blanchett for a few minutes before he began to laugh again: "have you ever performed, Kate?"
"What?" Blanchett was a little confused. He didn't understand why he suddenly jumped so far away.
"Since you're at Jane's party, you should have something to do with actors, even if you're not an actor?" Adrian asked, touching his chin.
"Well In fact, a friend of mine invited me. She's a photographer Blanchett shrugged.
"Really?" Adrian looked at him in amazement.
"Of course - no," said the girl with a sly look in her eyes. "In fact, I only came from the Australian National Academy of Arts and drama last year, and now I have performed a lot of plays, especially Shakespeare's plays."
"That's great. It looks like my hunch is right," Adrian said with an exaggerated sigh of relief, and his eyes became hot. "There's a character that suits you, Kate. Maybe you'd like to audition?"
"Role?" Blanchett blinked in surprise. "You mean In a movie? "
"Yes, that's right," Adrian nodded. "Would you like to try? This script has been in hand for a long time, but there has been no suitable candidate. The hero was decided not long ago, but the heroine is still not sure
"Don't you think Don't you think... " Blanchett gestured as if he wanted to laugh, but he didn't know how to laugh. "I mean, we just met for a few minutes, and then you suddenly invited me to a movie audition. It was kind of
"I know it's a little abrupt, but please believe me, you have that kind of temperament, that kind of strong, with a little cold and gorgeous, with a little bit of weakness, and very independent temperament, very in line with the needs." Adrian tongue can lotus said, "at least participate in the audition?"
"Well Well, I'd like to say I'm honored, but... " Blanchett was at a loss. She chuckled and then looked distressed.
Just then, Jane Campion appeared at the balcony entrance: "so you're here, ED, Sam is finally here..."
"You're just in time, Jane. Help me." Before she could finish, Adrian pulled her to the balcony and introduced Blanchett: "this is Kate, Kate Blanchett."
"Hello, Kate." Campion put out his hand.
"Hello, Ms. Campion. I love your movies. Both sweet sister and angel are wonderful." Said Blanchett, slightly excited.
"Good, now that you all know each other, so," Adrian coughed, "now I'm going to invite Kate to an audition for a movie. I think she's very suitable, but she's a little hesitant, so I hope you can help me convince her"
"ha, there's someone who hesitates about the audition invitation of a major director." Campion looked at Blanchett in a little surprise."Big director?" The girl looks at Campion and Adrian.
"Don't tell me, you don't know who he is, honey."
