Chapter 138： Sonoma

Time slowly slipped to October. The hot temperatures in Los Angeles are long gone, but the propaganda war between the major film companies has entered a fierce heat. Now the Thanksgiving-Christmas-New Year file is getting more and more attention, and the box office numbers are beginning to move toward the summer file. In line with it, many big productions put the schedule in this time period.

As the first work to enter the North American film market, Luc Besson also set his goal at this time period. Although he was still busy in post-production, the publicity plan for "Killer Leon" was as early as the day the movie started. It started.

Just like "Terminator 2," Columbia Pictures lost the distribution rights of the film after Ryan got involved. Of course, Ryan didn't know.

It should be said that he was born with the Japanese...

Miramax released the first trailer early, edited by Luc Besson himself, abandoning the sensitive content of the movie, focusing on showing Leon’s superb killer skills and hot scenes, and how to save a man from despair. Matilda's little girl.

From the trailer alone, this is the story of a killer helping a desperate girl. There seems to be nothing special, but the screenwriter of this movie has Ryan’s name behind it. His work has always been creative, so it’s absolutely amazing. Most people believe that what is shown in the trailer is only a small part of the movie content.

There are many boring film critics trying to interpret the content of the film from the trailer. After all, this is the only work that Ryan Jenkins will release in 1992.

"This is a story about a killer. We can see from the trailer that the story should take place in New York. The police also played a very disgraceful role in the movie, but I am a little worried that Ryan's most important period was during his Grew up under the care of his sister Nicole Kidman, does he know how to describe the image of a killer? Of course, we all know that Ryan has a wide range of reading and unexpected ideas, maybe he will We describe a unique killer..."

These film critics know very well that it is a stupid act to make false judgments before a movie is released, and what they write is often nonsense.

Some media have set their sights on the full-text reading of the film’s cast and crew. After all, since Ryan's debut to the present, his works have won a lot of popularity.

For example, in a "Sixth Sense", not only did he and Nicole Kidman become famous and officially entered Hollywood, but also allowed David Fincher to get the Oscar nomination for best director for his debut. "Night Sleep in Seattle" made Tom Hanks and Nicole Kidman both enter the ranks of Hollywood's top stars. "Bodyguard" made Whitney Houston's career a big success, and the limelight faintly overwhelmed Madonna Sico. Ni, recommend Brad Pitt to star in "Yihai Xiongfeng". Hollywood is about to welcome another popular idol niche.

"Whether it is the director Luc Besson. Or the two starring actors Jean Reynolds and Gary Oldman. They are not unfamiliar to us. The image of Leon comes from Ryan watching a movie Jean? In the movie starring Mr. Reynolds, according to director Besson, Gary Oldman was also recommended by Ryan. Perhaps we can see the wonderful performances of these two actors in the movie..."

"The other main actor, Miss Natalie Portman, is a newcomer. So far we haven’t got much information about her, but in the few shots of the trailer, we vaguely saw her. Excellent acting skills, although her facial lines are slightly rougher, she has a faint look like Audrey Hepburn when she was young, and several crew members we interviewed revealed that this Miss Portman was filming. The acting skills shown at that time can even be compared to when Ryan Jenkins filmed "Sixth Sense"..."

After reading this report. Ryan didn't need to call to ask. It must be the news that Harvey Weinstein deliberately disclosed. However, he kept the agreement with Ryan and did not disclose Natalie's identity information in advance.

And there is nothing too outrageous. Natalie's talent in acting is indeed beyond doubt.

Now it’s just a trailer, and when the movie is released, the real trouble will come. Ryan knows very well that even if he undergoes some surgery on the plot of the movie, the controversy after the release may be inevitable. Some people always like to stand morally. Go up to the commanding heights and accuse others, but never care if the bottom of your **** is clean.

"So after the trailer was released, none of your classmates noticed it?"

In the bedroom, Ryan is holding the microphone and talking on the phone with Natalie in New York.

"Of course!" The voice over there was inevitably triumphant, "The actor announced in the movie is Natalie Portman, and my name is Natalie Hurschle. I am obviously not alone. Besides, I am early I changed my hair style and made it taller... ah, it’s nothing, no one will recognize me anyway."

"Come on, Nat." Ryan couldn't help but slapped. "This kind of trick can also be used for a while. After the movie is released, your classmates will definitely overwhelm you... well, there are reporters and paparazzi."

"That's not necessarily." Ryan could almost imagine Natalie wrinkling her nose when she heard this hum.

What a pity, Nat, even if you are smart, you are still naive! Ryan sighed secretly. With Natalie's age and acting skills shown in the movie, as well as sensitive subjects, the reporter will definitely clean up her digging.

Hmm... plus Ryan Jenkins' childhood friend.

"Okay, Nat." Ryan tapped his finger, scratched his cheek, and said, "If the movie has caused you trouble after the movie is released, I hope you don't blame me."

"Blame you? Why am I..." Natalie's voice suddenly cut off. It should be because of the sensitive subject matter of the movie. "Ryan, I remember you said in your letter before that the chosen path must be brave and firm. Going on, all criticisms, slanders and difficulties and setbacks are just bubbles. Do you think I will be afraid of these?"

Yes, Natalie in this life is not Natalie in the previous life, she has been influenced by herself to some extent! Greater ambition, more proud and strong personality.

Listening to her innocent and firm tone, I don't know why, Ryan suddenly felt the feeling of a girl in my family, but Natalie's next sentence destroyed this feeling completely.

"Furthermore, Ryan, aren't you... standing in front of me? At that time, there will be criticisms and arguments. First of all, I will be directed at you. I will just hide behind you... Hee hee..."

Sure enough, she was a smart little Lori, Ryan smiled helplessly at the Huhua Fengshui Master. "Well, dear Nat, let me act as your human shield."

After talking about the movie again, Natalie on the other side suddenly asked, "Ryan, didn't you mean to serve the world... the World Cup, is that the name? Did you shoot a promotional mv for them? Not finished yet? I'm still waiting to see."

"No, it's early. The World Cup Organizing Committee had already negotiated, but FIFA asked to cooperate with their publicity plan. It will not be released until next year."

Speaking of. Ryan was also helpless. That gang of corrupt people engaged in sports politics is too much trouble. If it weren't for their power, he would want to break up with them.

After she hung up Natalie's phone, Ryan put away the script of "Sugar Coated Trap", which was basically finished. Although there are movies that have been seen in the previous life, the adaptation is not easy. He has consulted a large number of law books for this purpose. Fortunately, this life's head is good enough.

Anyway, the film adaptation right of the novel is in his hands, and he is not eager to release it. Recently, he has been thinking about what kind of benefits should be exchanged for this work?

Soon, "Killer Leon" launched a poster, and the crew directly adopted several sketches drawn by Ryan. The most eye-catching one was naturally the one where Leon and Matilda were walking on the road.

Leon held Divine Youth in one hand and a pistol with a silencer in the other; Matilda was wearing a shorts and jacket. A sun-shaped pendant is tied around his neck, with a bear doll in one hand and a paper bag in the other, looking at the cool killer sideways.

There are also separate posters of the three protagonists, in addition to a few pictures of Leon and Matilda living together.

In fact, there are senior filmmakers with keen intuition. I faintly feel that the content of this movie is unusual, especially the pictures of the lives of the little girl and the middle-aged killer, why there is a faint taste of "Taxi Driver"... No, it should be the taste of "Lolita" .

Of course, before the movie is released, neither the reporter nor the film critic will speak easily.

Perhaps out of confidence in Ryan, or in view of Luc Besson’s post-production progress, Miramax has set the schedule of "Killer Leon" in the fiercely contested Christmas file, and the premiere location is also shown. In New York.

"Relax, Harvey, I will definitely go to the premiere, Nicole? She doesn't have time. She should go to Montana with the "Jurassic Park" crew at that time. The rest? You go ask Jules and The producers on your side are alright, aren’t they always in charge of the project? Nat? I think it’s the perfect choice to unravel the suspense at the last minute, isn’t it? That’s it. See you in New York some time later. I still have something to talk to you."

In the driving car, Ryan put down his mobile phone and scratched his head, saying that the box office of the previous life "Killer Leon" was not very good in North America. Will Harvey Weinstein throw it in the Christmas stall?

However, UU reading tends to be more controversial, the more controversial the movie will be, plus its own appeal, shouldn’t it? How can you say that Natalie's debut work should be promoted to the 100 million box office club?

Looking at the scenes that were going backwards outside the car window, Ryan stretched out and asked the driving seat, "George, how long will it take to get there?"

"It's still early, Ryan, if you're bored, you can sleep for a while." George said without looking back.

"forget it."

Ryan shrugged and glanced back. The familiar old Ford was hanging behind him unhurriedly. He couldn't help but shook his head. The smell and tracking ability of the one behind was really extraordinary.

Before leaving Beverly Hills, George made several laps and dumped all reporters and paparazzi. Originally, this guy also disappeared. Who knew he had just left the boundaries of Los Angeles County, he followed.

I'm used to it anyway, Ryan doesn't care, he simply took the map and looked for a place called Sonoma on it.
