In the history of Hollywood, the golden age of song and dance films was from the 1930s to the 1940s. With the continuous improvement of shooting techniques, as well as the peak of luxury setting and production at that time, the songs and dances presented in films and Broadway were totally different. Such films paid more attention to the combination of content and form, His artistic achievements are also very high, so although it is still black and white s è, it is still popular in the United States. ~~
in the 1950s and 1960s, with the expansion of color s è films, song and dance films began to become very epic. They reached the peak of a genre film in Hollywood, and many actors, such as Julie Andrews, who were famous for this type of film and even won the Oscar for the best NV protagonist, emerged.
"It was a wonderful time. I can sing and dance freely in the camera. I can't feel the freedom now," Andrews said, adding, "of course, I don't mean that it's not beautiful now. If I'm too old, I'll feel the brilliance of the past, especially after my throat surgery, I can't sing any more."
All of a sudden, people around her sobbed for her. This is the premiere of the princess's diary, a film about modern fairy tales, which was released immediately after Moulin Rouge. Time is a little tight, but the new year's schedule is about to end. If you don't seize the time, then for the sake of box office, you can only postpone it to summer vacation.
"Don't say that, Julie, even though you can't sing any more, I believe that you will always remember Mary bopings in" the world of joy "and Maria von Trapp in" the sound of music ". You have left a heavy mark in the history of musical films." Adrian said with praise.
Although after the 1970s, due to the rise of various technologies, such as "Space Odyssey 2001" and later "Star Wars", as well as the interest of various sports, Hollywood song and dance films began to shrink, and Andrews' career was greatly affected. Rao is so, she still did not give up her favorite song and dance film, the film did not sell, so she went to perform on Broadway, until in 1997, because of the tumor, she had to have surgery on her throat, and later triggered a series of medical lawsuits, so she had to say goodbye to her singing career.
"I believe you are too, Adrian. Although it's no longer possible for the musical to revive its popularity, Moulin Rouge is indeed the most s è musical in recent years, and Nicole Kidman NV also shows s è. It's great to see such a song and dance film today." Said Andrews in a compliment.
As mentioned above, after the 1970s, after the overall shrinkage of song and dance films, the traditional expression methods were no longer popular, and innovative ways were occasionally tried, but they did not cause the strong repercussions as before, and the musical films gradually became a minority. After "everybody says I love you" in 1995, there is no more standard work. In fact, even "everyone says I love you" has been criticized. Many people regard it as the beginning of Woody Allen's downhill road.
This is also the reason why Moulin Rouge can attract so much attention. The genre films may have low ch á o, but they will never disappear. After a long time, there will always be some dazzling fire, even if the duration is very short. In the same way, the old people in the film academy will miss that time, the time when they were so brilliant, and the singing and dancing skills were the important criteria for winning awards. So Adrian repeatedly asked Nicole to be on the field in person.
Adrian gave a typical example in persuading Naomi to practice singing and dancing as Nicole did. Audrey Hepburn had to say s è in the movie version of my fair Sue NV, but she didn't even get the nomination for the best actor of NV in that year's Oscar, because the dance and song were not her dancing and singing. It was Julie Andrews who won the best actor in NV, who starred in my fair Sue NV for three consecutive years.
So, Nicole's prize winning foundation is here. Of course, it's still not easy to win awards only for the foundation, and some important things are indispensable.
"Remember what you promised me?" at the end of the conversation with Andrews and others, Adrian called a stout middle-aged man out of the crowd.
"What do you mean?" Harvey Weinstein blinked.
"Coming, March." Adrian was too lazy to expose his pretentious expression and said bluntly.
"Oh, yes, I see." Weinsteinlu suddenly realized the God s è, and after two seconds of pause, he gave a vague smile: "Nicole Kidman, right?"
"it seems that there is only one movie directed and produced by me that may win the best NV protagonist." Adrian smiles.
"It's true," Weinstein recalled and nodded. "It looks like there will be standards in the future."
Then he began to laugh again: "that is indeed a special creature, and it has a Xing character. Only a big person like you can tame her, but I remember you said that "beautiful heart" is also for Oscar, so... "
Weinstein made this gesture but did not say the following words, but Adrian was very clear about his meaning. He thought of some of his previous performances, and some rumors of his previous life were not aimless."That's my business, Harvey," Adrian said in a languid voice, "you just need to finish"
"OK, OK, but look, ED, Pirates of the Caribbean just started shooting, want to..." Weinstein smiles.
"This time it's the same as last time, Harvey," Adrian interrupted. "All the resources are at your disposal. I just want to see the results, so don't say you didn't get the benefit."
The mercenary guy didn't speak and laughed twice without shame.
"It's more time than last time, and it's better. Don't let me down, Harvey." Adrian didn't care. He just said it in a very serious way.
Weinstein finally closed his smile and nodded his head in the same earnest way: "no problem, ed. as you said, this is a more abundant and favorable situation. I have no reason to fail. I'll wait to see the good play."
After a pause, he added, "frankly, ED, it's really lucky to work with you."
He said this with sincerity. Indeed, no media group can give him so much power, even for a short period of time. And by taking control of this power, Weinstein realized that his brother was not the material to run a large media group, so he was more involved in film production and distribution.
"Me too." Adrian patted Weinstein on the shoulder. With such a guy who has a lot of connections in Hollywood to help, a lot of things have become easier. AC media is more suitable for Miramax than Disney.
After leaving Weinstein, Adrian went to the other side, but at the same time she sighed in her heart, if only she had been as sensible as Andrews.
"That's our great miracle director, Mr. Adrian Cowell. He's really a great director." Anne Hathaway introduced Adrian to her friend with great interest. Although she held him by the corner of his clothes affectionately, she didn't mean anything else, as if she were just a good friend.
"Nice to meet you. I'm Adrian Cowell. I'm not the boss of a company or a director. I'm just Adrian." No matter what is in mind, Adrian still uses an approachable appearance to pull into the distance with these young people. It's too easy to get their favor. What's more, their mind is not so simple. For example, the eyes of the young NV child on the far left are flashing all the time.
"I'm so happy, ED, can you believe it? The first movie I starred in is coming out!" it was so easy to wait until the screening started, and everyone began to enter the screening hall. Adrian only got a few minutes to be alone with Annie, but she was so excited to talk about it.
"Then enjoy the evening. It will be your official visit to Hollywood." Adrian didn't feel any impatience at all and kept the smile.
"I really don't know how to thank you, ED, for giving me this horn s è." Annie felt Ji said that Adrian felt that she was sincere, but it was just because of this that he had a headache.
"Please buy me a cup of coffee." He said so.
"Just a cup of coffee? How can that be?" Annie didn't catch the meaning. "If the movie is a success, my friends and I are going to have a party to celebrate. Can you host it?"
she looked at him with wide eyes and prayed, her hands clenched into fists, and she looked very sincere, as Adrian said, if she didn't laugh, It's really beautiful.
"Well, if I have time." Adrian thought about it and said, "remember to call me first."
"No problem!" look at her cheering appearance. If she had not entered the screening hall, she might have jumped up and cheered.
Seeing Annie so happy, Adrian sighs in his heart. Even the NV child on the left has more eyes than you. The NV child, who is somewhat s è in posture and somewhat similar to Sarah's eyebrows, secretly put a small note into his hand when he left just now. No doubt, her telephone number and address were written on it.
But Annie seems to have heard nothing. Well, she is a bit slow sometimes, but she shouldn't be so dull. Maybe she's just protecting herself, but those words still sound sincere. Adrian, who has read NV, can't make any mistakes in this respect.
Looking back on this period of time and her not less contact, more and more can confirm that her eyes really have problems, of course, she is also very cute, very talkative, and the people she contacts don't hate her, just like just now.
It's going to take a little bit of a beating. Do you want to hit her? Adrian, sitting in his seat, glanced at Anne Hathaway, who was not far away from her.
There is no need to say much about the content and repercussions of the princess's diary. On the first day of its release, it grossed about 7 million box offices at 2200 outlets, while the total box office for the first three days of the first weekend was 20 million. Compared with the expected, or Adrian's memory of box office, this number is a little less, not surprising, after all, this is January, and the number of theaters is less than the original.In the first week, the film still ranked first in the North American box office. The quality of the film was one of the reasons. Some media praised Gary Marshall for creating a good-looking fairy tale film again, and thought that Julie Andrews and new actress Anne Hathaway showed s è, especially the pure and beautiful Anne, Like Audrey Hepburn and Julia Roberts, the name was put forward early on by Adrian. Of course, all NV children have a dream of princess, which is also the reason why movies are popular.
Even today, the royal families of various countries have become the sightseeing objects of zoos, but the words such as nobility, Prince and princess are still sought after by many people. So Disney always clings to the "Princess complex", because it can easily let the NV children pay for it. Unfortunately, AC media is starting to do this. The princess diary is just the beginning. I don't know how Disney will deal with it.
In the early January of 2002, Adrian continued his leisurely life. Although the shooting of matrix is important, he will soon go to London and live for a few days. Don't you think it's too expensive to shoot for a while and stop for a while, While running back and forth between the NV people, I took care of the NV children. Lily is such a mischievous guy. Seeing that she will go to school in half a year, Adrian can't help her to make trouble. She just tells her not to set a bad example for Diva and Juliet. The two little guys stick to their father and sister.
Elinor is nothing. Besides the nanny and her mother and father, she has two aunts who love her very much. Gwyneth may not be easy to say, but liv really likes Eleanor very much. She always says that seeing her blue eyes is like seeing herself. Love and pity are well known. By now, this little guy has been able to turn over and sit up, and he always looks at the world curiously with his mother's beautiful eyes, and even calls her mother for the first time, which makes Blanchett happy and proud for a long time.
As for Mary, who is more than one year old, she has been able to say some short sentences. She is very interesting when she talks with her big tongue. Fortunately, her eyebrows are very beautiful and they are not turned up. But she had a bad m á o disease, and she always liked to bite - not to put things in her mouth, but to open her mouth to bite. Once Adrian was holding her and didn't pay attention to the phone. As a result, she crawled on her body and bit her ears for a long time. When she put her down, she was still very reluctant. The corners of her mouth seemed to be sad for not being late. Fortunately, her teeth were not strong.
"Tell me the truth, Jessie, did you do the same when you were a child?" Adrian asked Jessica seriously, making a "must be you inherited" expression, so Jessica gave him a few punches.
However, not all the work has stopped. The routine work report of AC media still needs to be read, and some decisions still need to be made. Although Ivanka is still studying, he has always done well, which makes him very relaxed.
There are three important things related to TV and movies. One of them is whether the end of the dark angel is over. As a science fiction film, but also a relatively small number of science fiction films, ratings have not been very high, the third season after the launch of a slight decline. In addition, although the background settings were changed, the 9 / 11 incident still had a certain impact on the TV series. In addition, Jessica's mind began to shift to the film. Adrian was haunted for several times, suggesting that she wanted to make a movie. After careful consideration, it is appropriate to let her transform now.
What's more, through this sci-fi movie, some staff with ideas on science fiction plays have been cultivated. It happens that in the second half of the year, Adrian is also preparing sci-fi movies for Jili. This little girl also finds an opportunity to pester Adrian, and gives full play to her own body advantages. She is quite eager to become famous. So we need to allocate resources to produce, and by the way, we can remind Cameron that he needs to speed up. Therefore, the end of the fourth quarter seems certain.
It's just appeasing the production team and getting them to start preparing for a new show, which needs to be handled with care.
Then there are two films to be made. One of them is Chicago, which was launched at the end of last year. When the stage play was released on Broadway, it was applauded. Now the classic song and dance film or the traditional song and dance film has a brief flash because of Moulin Rouge. Hollywood producers will definitely not let go of this theme. Unfortunately, Adrian had taken the film rights long ago, otherwise Naomi and Zeta Jones would not have been allowed to practice singing and dancing so much earlier.
That's right. Adrian told Naomi the song and dance film. In his previous life, he didn't see many song and dance films, but this one impressed him deeply and even surpassed Moulin Rouge. There is no other. The song and dance in which the barrister held a news conference for the NV protagonist is very vivid. The NV protagonist and the reporters are nothing but puppets of the lawyer. Whatever the lawyer wants them to say, they will say what they want. With the rhythmic singing and dancing, black s è's humorous sarcasm is very sharp.
Adrian knows about Naomi's practice. With her acting skills, there will be no problem getting a nomination. Zeta Jones, needless to say, was her. Although her performance in her previous life was not very eye-catching, and the off-site factors of winning awards accounted for a large part, now that she has been nominated twice, it is not difficult to win the prize, let alone Adrian.Of course, the director is still rob Marshall. Although he has not directed many films, he has also directed the stage play "Chicago" a few years ago, which is very suitable.
As for the hero, do you remember what Adrian and George Clooney said when shooting "the eleven Arhats"? Although he had no dance foundation, he also started training at the same time when the film began to prepare in the middle of last year. Maybe it was not as good as those professional dancers, but there was no problem singing and dancing in front of the camera.
With Adrian looking after it, the film is no worse than the original in memory.
