Such remarks will not have much impact on the film’s box office market. What can really affect is the professional reputation and the choices of the Oscar judges. The previous "Brokeback Mountain" was in the optimistic situation and did not criticize it. The remarks made a powerful counterattack, and directly lost the best film Golden Man who was likely to get it.
Although Duke’s goal is not on the best film, the negative reviews of the film will also drag down individual awards. A film is closely connected with the director or actor or even any staff member involved.
The other party found a former astronaut who had long since retired, and Duke directly found an active astronaut who had just returned from space by NASA.
When this astronaut named Garrett Reisman was interviewed by Warner's media, he was full of praise for "Gravity."
"The only thing that separates you and the earth in the movie is the glass on your helmet. This visual shock was captured just right, and the movement and posture during the space walk were also very accurate. Played by Scarlett Johansson When the novice astronaut turned off the oxygen flow to the Soyuz, it was completely correct to close the two valves. When she wanted to command the orbital maneuver engine ckd, the button she pressed was also completely correct, and the label on the button was also correct. , The interiors of the Soyuz and the International Space Station are also very close to reality."
In addition, Garrett Reisman also said humorously, “Scarlett Johansson really behaves like a professional astronaut, but there are few astronauts as beautiful as her.”
Not only the astronaut Garrett Reisman, but even a spokesperson for NASA, one of the film’s behind-the-scenes sponsors, also talked about the film "Gravity" at the press conference. In terms of simulating real space and the professionalism of actors, "Gravity" has achieved the best of all space genres.
This is undoubtedly a powerful counterattack. The former astronaut named Scott Palazsky has been retired for many years. How can it be more authoritative than the words of the current astronaut and NASA?
And when needed. Duke never mind playing in person.
"During the shooting, Scarlett Johansson made an unimaginable effort. Not only was she operated by 12 steel cables to show space roaming and drifting flu, but she also often cooperated with the shooting to make rolls, hanging upside down and other violations. The action of gravity, even lying flat in the air."
In an interview with Vanity Fair. Duke talked about the difficulty of filming the film, "It is a kind of pride for an actor to shoot where there is gravity, which is a kind of pride. When I tried it myself, I couldn't hold on for a few seconds, but Scarlett survived."
Not only that, Duke is very clear about the support of industry peers and their views on the film. It's much more important than media comments or a few painless criticisms from an astronaut.
James Cameron once praised the film, "Gravity" itself can naturally get the support of some technical flows in the circle. Duke himself also frequently meets with the veteran Jewish people in the industry. In any case, from the past Since the beginning of the El Gibson incident, he has become a member of the Jewish club, and he is still a fairly heavy one.
at the same time. Pulling sessions for "Gravity" are also being held continuously, with Penny Kellys and several public relations companies hired by Duke taking turns to battle. Carpet-like public relations were conducted to the judges who came to the preview, and a large number of small gifts that were very memorable but not very eye-catching were also distributed like flowing water.
Even Duke has won the support of some heavyweights in the industry.
In an interview, Francis Coppola specifically mentioned "Gravity", calling this film an extremely exciting masterpiece. Scarlett Johansson has put out one of Hollywood's best performances in recent years.
George Lucas did not hesitate to praise his words after attending a trial meeting, "I called Cameron, and he thought Duke had done things five years earlier. It is crazy to be so ahead. Yes. But Duke did it. I think this film undoubtedly pushes the filming technology forward a lot."
"I think the technology and methods they used to shoot "Gravity of the Earth" will forever change the mode of film production. The machines that Duke and his crew designed and produced for the film are also very ingenious. I really like this Duke film. Movie, in this movie, he completely changed himself."
The views of George Lucas and Francis Coppola can undoubtedly affect many people. Although the former is not a member of the Academy for a long time, there are a large number of judges in his Lucasfilm industry; the latter has been retired for a long time. He is still the leading figure in the Italian community in Hollywood.
"Although the situation is not the best for us..."
In the garden of the Duke’s Manor, Tina Fei was walking with Duke, saying, "But we will be one of the biggest hits."
She thought for a while, and said, "Those negative comments should come from William Morris..."
Duke slowed down, raising his hand to interrupt Tina Fei, "It doesn't matter where those comments come from, it's important that we recognize who our main competitors are."
Of course Tina Fei could understand Duke and said tentatively, "Now let Nancy and Pani start? They are ready."
"Then start it." Duke said without hesitation, "No need to keep!"
On the second weekend of January, "World News Weekly" published an astonishing news. The news involved the popular Hollywood movie star Natalie Portman, the actress who made her mark during the awards season, and ' Xiaosan's words are connected with the words like'despicable and shameless' scheming bitch.
"World News Weekly" interviewed Natalie Portman’s fiance Benjamin Millerpie’s ex-girlfriend. The ex-girlfriend claimed that Natalie Portman was not only between her and Benjamin Millerpie. The third party stepped in, causing the three to have a strange relationship for nearly half a year, and finally used the means of deliberate pregnancy to force Benjamin Millepey to abandon her...
In her rhetoric, Natalie Portman's pregnancy is not based on the nature of the woman and the mother at all, but uses pregnancy to achieve a series of ulterior purposes.
Not only "World News Weekly" this paper media, such as Fox Television Network's gossip entertainment program and instant sharing of Internet hot video, there are related interviews and reports.
For a time, many people have changed Natalie Portman’s senses, especially the phrase “Using pregnancy to achieve a series of ulterior goals” that was specifically highlighted and emphasized in videos and news reports. The words also aroused the vigilance of many people.
"As I said, that is not a simple woman."
In an apartment building in Beverly Hills, Franco Pearson said to several of his old friends, "What her private life is like, it has nothing to do with us, but think about it, she actually wants to take advantage of pregnancy. Something to blind our minds and cause us to make mistakes in judgment. This behavior is too bad!"
Another gray-haired old man, the members of the College Rotating Committee nodded heavily, "In order to achieve the goal, she will do everything possible. She is too much to underestimate us."
"She is treating us as idiots!"
An old man who participated in the Dukla film meeting some time ago was filled with indignation, "We are not old and confused yet!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
There were echoing voices all around.
Although these people only have one vote in their hands, everyone is close to or over seventy years old, and they have a wide network of contacts in this fame and fortune circle.
What Duke wants to do is not necessarily to win their support. As long as these can offset some of the judges’ sympathy for Natalie Portman, that’s enough.
If the two sides are standing at the same starting point, even if Natalie Portman’s role and movie genre are more popular with Oscars, how difficult is it for her to win Scarlett Johansson?
As for what Natalie Portman would think, whether he would go crazy or not, it was not within Duke’s consideration. In the face of sufficient interests, the idols and stars he had hacked were not only Natalie. ? Portman one.
Of course, this is just to make the competition between the two sides look fairer. If everyone uses those conventional methods to attack the Oscar heroine, who the final winner is will only be known until the day when the award is announced.
However, Duke still admires the Jewish actress. The other party was once the name of Hollywood’s most minded actress. It was not made out of thin air. Wanting to come and win the Oscar heroine is not unrelated to her pregnancy. Although there is no way to know the specific situation at that time, based on the American society and her own style, it is very likely that this is a well-designed and smoothly running Olympic plan.
With her rumored mind, it is not difficult to come up with such a plan.
It can be said that Natalie Portman is really smart. There are too many female stars like Angelina Jolie in Hollywood, there are so many, but she uses Harvard, go to Jerusalem to practice, and Hollywood has become a divorced method, successfully packaging herself into a distinctive Hollywood female star, and there is almost no second sample.
There is nothing wrong with this kind of packaging. Everyone in Hollywood has a layer of packaging. Duke and Scarlett Johansson are no exception, but Natalie Portman's packaging is too thick and too glamorous. I always want to make it. Ren could not help opening the package to see what the package really is.
It may be as glamorous as the packaging, or it may be completely different from the packaging. Who knows. (To be continued.)
