"Yes, George VI." Mark Foligno was not surprised that his conversation with Evan Bell had such a good start. "The proposal I brought this time is about the story of George VI." Marc Foligno took the script from his backpack and put it on the table.
"The King's Speech", the clear font comes into view, which is really familiar to Evan Bell. The first time he tried to use the memory of a lifetime to seek a breakthrough, he chose "The King's Speech", but after he tried it, he realized that he was too naive. The creation of the script was not that simple, and rebirth did not mean Able to get something for nothing. That's where all the stories behind it happened.
Evan Bell is also very familiar with the script of "The King's Speech". This story is based on the biography of George VI, after some tampering and beautification, the script was written. The story is very in line with Oscar's aesthetics, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a tribute to Oscar, biographies, historical facts, inspirational lines, overcoming disabilities, realizing dreams, personal heroes... These all shining elements make "The King's Speech" In the 2010 awards season, he won the Oscar for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Original Screenplay.
These vivid memories are also the reason why Evan Bell chose "The King's Speech" when he tried to use the memories of his previous life to make a breakthrough. I just didn't expect that Evan Bell has not finished the script, and the progress of history has come to this point in time. The script of "The King's Speech" has been created, and the producer even came to the door with this script. Come on, this is really a bit of a reincarnation feeling.
But after years of polishing, Evan Bell knows that he is not suitable for "The King's Speech", and it is not suitable from the beginning of his personality. This is an essential difference.
Say it hard. For Evan Bell, "The King's Speech" was too orthodox, poised, eulogizing virtue, and too sensational. Even flattery. This is really not Evan Bell's character. Of course, this is a more extreme statement. In fact, the quality of the "King's Speech" movie itself has not reached such a terrible position, but it just happens not to be Evan Bell's dish. so. First of all, Evan Bell cannot create such a script. If Evan Bell writes the script, it will definitely be more stylized; secondly, even if Evan Bell writes the script, he will not act, much less directed. Even if he knew that "The King's Speech" had achieved such a brilliant result in his previous life. Evan Bell will not have any heartbeat.
"But why do you think I'm the best fit for this proposal?" Evan Bell didn't read the script, his eyes just stopped on the cover for a while, and then he looked back at Mark Foligno.
Mark Foligno is a little surprised that Evan Bell would ask this, because Evan Bell must have a very good understanding of George VI's experience, so Evan Bell should also have a good understanding of his choice. . However, Marc Foligno didn't show it. He then said, "British, king. Noble, hero... I don't think this role is more suitable for you."
"Aside from your own British identity, you were born a commoner without losing your aristocratic temperament. After experiencing countless difficulties, you have climbed to the top. This experience is in line with George VI." Mark - Foley Neo continued. He is trying to convey his views to Evan Bell, "It can be seen after the last few events that you have a very rare heroism, that kind of leadership that unites everyone's hearts. Yes. Once in a lifetime. I can't think of a better fit for the role of George VI than you."
Evan Bell was stunned. How could he think that Marc Foligno was talking about someone else? Didn't Marc Foligno hear the rumours about Evan Bell in the UK? Evan Bell can definitely be said to be one of the best representatives of Hollywood's anti-traditional rebellious image. Look at the works he has shot over the years, which one is a decent work like "The King's Speech".
Seemingly aware of Evan Bell's pause, Marc Foligno remembered something, and continued, "As for age, I don't think it's ever been an issue," George VI was forty when he came to the throne. One year old, this is naturally a completely different class for Evan Bell's age, "As far as I know, the role you are playing now is in the forty-year-old age group. Moreover, the current new generation of actors- —Or in other words, among the actors of the Mesozoic generation, you are definitely the best actor in acting today. The challenge of a role like George VI is absolutely no less than that of any other role, which can definitely be said to be a huge challenge beyond imagination.”
Evan Bell pouted, when did he become a "Mesozoic actor"?
"But this script is too orthodox and doesn't conform to my personal aesthetic orientation." Evan Bell didn't have any more dialogue, he just nodded slightly, and then said his thoughts directly.
Mark Foligno was not surprised at all, it seems that he also expected Evan Bell's reaction, "Evan, it is because this script is orthodox and does not conform to the script orientation you have always been, so I am more Sure, this script is for you. Because this is an unprecedented challenge, you will break everyone's fixed perception of you, restrain your unruly and radiance, and play such a stuttering George VI."
It seems that this is the real killer of Mark Foligno. Since he took the initiative to find Evan Bell, it is impossible for him to have no understanding of Evan Bell's personality. Therefore, he also knows that "The King's Speech" is not a script that Evan Bell will favor in the first place. But even so, Marc Foligno insisted that Evan Bell would accept the proposal, naturally he was prepared.
Evan Bell was really surprised this time, and he raised his eyebrows, "This is a very interesting theory." In Evan Bell's acting career, the most lawful role should be the one just finished. "Cloud" is the role of Ryan, other than that, the other characters are more or less unruly.
Mark Foligno realized that Evan Bell's words were a little loose, and immediately chased after him and said, "If possible, I also hope that you can take over the job of directing this film and shoot an authentic film. British cinema."
In fact, Mark Foligno will think of Evan Bell from the proposal of "The King's Speech". "One Day" is the most important catalyst for the whole British team. Last year, the royal family hoped to give Evan Bell Honouring is another trigger point, so Evan Bell is indeed a rare choice for a film of pure British blood like "The King's Speech".
"Director?" Evan Bell raised his eyebrows, and he laughed immediately. In the proposal of "The King's Speech", there are three roles of director, actor and screenwriter that can be played by Evan Bell, but his personal wishes are It is arranged according to the screenwriter, actor, and director. In other words, the last thing he wants to take over is the director position, because he can't shoot an orthodox Oscar-style work. It is estimated that if he shoots, the finished product will be nondescript. .
Mark Foligno heard the doubts in Evan Bell's words, and he did not continue to explain, but looked at the script on the table, "Why don't we start with the script?" Evan Bell The script is picky, and everyone in the world's film circles knows it. Therefore, Mark Foligno still hopes to use the script to persuade Evan Bell, which is also the most effective, direct and fastest method.
Evan Bell actually intends to refuse directly. He has been struggling in the film circle over the years, and he really knows nothing about his interests. Although he once had a relationship with "The King's Speech", but Now he clearly understands that this is not a work suitable for him, nor is it a work that would interest him.
But after hearing Mark Foligno's words, Evan Belt paused and said, "Why not?" He reached out and picked up the script in his hand and began to read it.
When Evan Bell first arrived in the United States, he tried to create the "King's Speech" script, but it failed. So far, he still has a "King's Speech" script frame in his drawer, which is tattered These are In 2008, Evan Bell has already started to try original scripts, and he has his own understanding of how to write scripts. Now, the real script of "The King's Speech" has come out one step ahead of himself, and Evan Bell thought, why not read it and verify each other with his original ideas, maybe he can get some different gains.
Opening the script, Evan Bell took the lead to look at all the basic information. The screenwriter was indeed David Seidler. This is also an unknown screenwriter. Remember, before he was born again, David Seidler's only masterpiece was in his hands, and this is the typical screenwriter with a flash of inspiration.
However, the director's position is still blank. Tom Hopper, who won the Oscar for best director by relying on "The King's Speech" in his last life, should still be active in the television industry. His masterpieces "John Adams" and "Elizabeth I" all achieved great success on the small screen. A historical masterpiece that is less recognized, but on the big screen, he has not yet produced a masterpiece.
Evan Bell then opened the script, and Mark Foligno sat opposite and gave a brief introduction to the entire storyline.
