"So, Simon, how about you help me write a song, and I can be a free guest performer on the Victoria's Secret Show at the end of the year?"

"Unfortunately, Maggie, the Victoria's Secret Show has no guest performers."

"So this is a good idea. By inviting performers, the popularity of the Victoria's Secret show will definitely be higher. You should thank me for helping you come up with such a good idea."

"Thank you, Maggie, maybe you can go talk to someone else about something else."

In the private bar of the villa, Madonna tried her best to speak, but Simon was still indifferent, so he had to give up, and then pulled up the man and said, "Okay, let's go dancing, Simon, you are already so rich, there is no need for party time. Talk about work."

Madonna was small but powerful, and Simon knew that it was impossible to continue the conversation with Deutschman, and stood up according to her strength.

There were originally a dozen people on the dance floor of the bar shaking slowly to the soft music.

Madonna brought Simon to the dance floor and raised her hand to signal to the DJ not far away: "Hey, let's have a blast."

Although it is a private bar, the equipment is very complete.

After a while, dynamic music sounded, and the surrounding lights also flickered.

This body is young after all, and Simon is not a person who can't play. Seeing Madonna's body dancing quickly in front of him like a little wild cat, he also swayed to the music. Noticing that Natasha Henstridge was standing slightly hesitant on the dance floor, Simon gestured towards her, and the girl immediately came to Simon's side.

Madonna saw Simon holding Natasha's waist and hanging herself aside, obviously a little uncomfortable, but instead of trying to push Natasha away, she started to try to take the girl away from Simon.

Her Lady Queen is not taboo for both men and women.

However, the height difference between the two women was almost 20 centimeters, and Natasha did not cooperate. It was not easy for Madonna to succeed.

Simon found Madonna's intention, smiled and reached out and grabbed a handful from his side, caught another girl who was trying to stick to him, and gently pushed it to Madonna. Her Lady Queen was also welcome, and she didn't let go after taking it.

The music that lasted for more than ten minutes ended. Simon pulled Natasha off the dance floor. Redford and Deutschman were no longer here. There were a lot more people in the bar than before. The sofa card next to the pool table The seats were also changed, but the concave decks were only occupied on both sides, and the specially spare side was obviously reserved for Simon.

All the people in the booth, Simon, knew each other.

On the farthest side are the four weddings and a funeral actor Hugh Grant, his girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley, and Daenerys Entertainment's director of this year's film "Fighting the Monkey" David Hurley. Russell and actor Jeremy Davis, next to the Mexican director Robert Rodriguez and his queen actress Salma Hayek, who were discovered by Daenerys Entertainment last year by relying on "Killer Elegy", Quentin, who already knew Rodriguez well, didn't come to Park City because of "Reservoir Dogs" returning empty-handed at Sundance.

Simon greeted everyone without showing any strangeness, and sat down with Natasha.

It was basically the first time they met, and even though they had been introduced at the beginning of the party, everyone was surprised that Simon could easily call them by their names, after all, they were still little-known people in Hollywood at this time. Of course, Simon does not have a strong memory, but most of the memories in his mind are related to Hollywood. These people are not unknown people, and it is normal to recognize them.

Everyone was chatting casually when Madonna came over again with a girl next to her.

The lights here are brighter, and Simon can see the appearance of the girl who was just pushed to Queen Mai by himself. She has a very pure face, black hair, fair skin, light eyes, and a small mouth that is just right, a bit Winona Lai Germany's feeling, but a little more coquettish that Winona Ryder lacks.

With just one glance, Simon can be sure that the girl should be of Russian descent.

that's the truth.

Because Simon quickly searched for each other's name in his mind: Mia Kirschner.

Koshna, a typical Russian surname.

Without concealing his gaze, Simon looked at the girl a few times, and patted the slightly spare position beside him at will: "Come, sit here, what's your name?"

There were a lot of guests tonight. I just greeted some of the people who needed to meet with Alison's arrangement before, but the girl in front of me couldn't line up to meet Simon in person, so even if I remembered the other person's name, I still had to pretend I didn't know each other. .

Mia Kirschna was just pushed to Madonna by Simon, and was eaten tofu by Her Lady Queen on the dance floor. She had a little resentment at first. At this time, she heard Westeros calling her to sit over and left involuntarily. He stepped forward, carefully sat down beside the other party, remembered the man's question, and quickly said, "Mia, Mr. Westeros, my name is Mia Kershna."

The waiter came over with a tray at this time.

Simon took two cocktails, handed one to Natasha, who had a slightly resentful look on his left, and the other was about to be handed to Mia Kirschner. He looked at the face with some baby fat, stopped and asked. : "Are you an adult?"

Mia Kirschner raised her small hand to catch the glass, explaining: "19 years old, Mr. Westeros, I'm 19 years old."

Simon smiled and took the wine glass back: "It's still not allowed to drink," he said and gestured to the waiter: "Bring this lady a glass of juice."

Natasha on the other side is even more depressed

.

I am also 19 years old, and I am still half a year away from 20 years old.

I can't help but look at the opposite, Mia Koshina is about 1.6 meters tall and about the same as Madonna. With her innocent and tender face, it is easy to be mistaken for a little girl. This is because the model is close to 1.8 meters tall. She is incomparable.

Many people in the bar were paying attention to what was happening on Simon's side.

For Westeros who already has a 90-level vase by his side, but still can get a little beauty at his fingertips, he can only be envious. Natasha Henstridge is no one dare to make an idea, Mi Ya Koshina was originally the target of many people to strike up a conversation with. The special temperament of this little beauty who can easily score more than 80 points is very eye-catching.

It's certainly impossible for the little-known 19-year-old actor to enter a Westeros party for nothing.

Mia Kirschner is the heroine of the last Sundance film called "The Sexy Club," a Canadian film about a middle-aged police detective indulging in a sad past and a relationship with a friend. The story of a dancer who resembled his deceased daughter, Mia Kirschner as the heroine as the dancer Christina.

Highgate Pictures is very interested in this film and is negotiating with the producer for copyright matters. The director and producer of the film have thus obtained an invitation to the party tonight. Mia Kirschner is the film producer Robert. Lansto brought it into the party with some different thoughts, imagining that he would be able to get started after the party tonight, but he did not expect this little girl to be favored by Westeros.

The original idea was of no use.

Not far from the booth, Robert Lansto, who was sitting beside the bar, raised his head dejectedly and drank the whisky in his glass in one gulp. He suddenly realized that the dissatisfaction expressed by this action seemed to be a little obvious, and he quickly restrained himself and carefully put the glass away. Put it down, and dare not look at Westeros again.

If you knew it earlier, you should have started earlier.

And just now, when the girl was going to dance, she shouldn't have let the other party leave. The purpose is so obvious.

If a girl who can mingle in such a circle has no scheming at all, it is a joke.

On the sofa in the booth, Simon just asked Mia Kirschner for a glass of juice, and then turned to "Fighting the Monkey" director David Russell to chat about his new script "Flirting with Disaster".

David Russell is remembered as a controversial director in Hollywood.

The filmmaker's two Oscar hits, "The Line of Happiness" and "American Hustle," were dismissed by many viewers as misnomers, and fans felt that most of the film's highlights were due to Christian Bale, Amy Bell Great performances by Adams, Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper.

In Simon's view, David Russell's works are easy to give the actors enough room to play, but they always lack a strength, a quality that is enough to make the film a classic.

This is probably related to Russell's personal experience as a late bloomer.

Hollywood is a whetstone for many talented filmmakers, but most filmmakers do not become sharper and sharper, but gradually grind away the initial edges and corners in various frame specifications.

David Russell is like that.

This new Sundance director is actually 35 years old this year and approaching middle age.

It was also at a very young age that he ignited his interest in film through the super-eight camera. After graduating from college in the early 1980s, David Russell kept trying to enter the film industry. After spending more than ten years, he was finally able to start his first minister last year. piece.

Moreover, the original budget of "Fighting the Monkey" was only a measly $200,000. After Gaomen Pictures took a fancy to the script, the budget was only increased to $1 million, and it was still impossible to hire any big names to join in. The slightly loose budget was only able to put The cinematography, soundtrack, etc. are more refined.

The finalized debut work is actually a rather compromised work.

Simon had seen the movie ahead of time.

David Russell has picked a sensitive topic that can easily attract the attention of the audience, which actually has obvious tricks in it.

However, as a film involving the taboo of mother and child, Russell's description of this aspect is quite to the point, and the ending of the story is also very peaceful. The hero wants to commit suicide because of guilt, but fails and wants to strangle to death. Seduced his mother, but also failed to be ruthless. In the end, he just had an accident, which caused the film to lack a shocking impact.

In this regard, it is also this session of Sundance, where David Russell is in sharp contrast with another newcomer director, Kevin Smith.

Kevin Smith is only 23 years old, and spent more than 20,000 dollars to write and direct the "Crazy Clerk", which was well received at this year's film festival. Unlike the peaceful compromise of "Monkey Fight", "Crazy Clerk" has a very sharp Personal style, Smith made a poignant mockery of all aspects of this society through a day of experience as a hapless convenience store salesperson, and he did not shy away from sex and swearing, and was full of scale.

In the original time and space, after becoming famous with "Crazy Clerk", Kevin Smith still maintained his own personal style for a long time. In 1999, "Angry Crime" violated the mainstream religion in the United States even more angered many people.

Because of this sharpness, Smith has never been able to integrate into mainstream Hollywood circles.

As a super comic fan who opened his own comic shop after becoming famous, Smith has expressed interest in many superhero projects, but because of the studio's scruples about Smith's personal style, he has never made a superhero for him. A chance for a big movie, the director could only get through a few episodes of Warner's

Super-British TV series are addicting.

Highgate Pictures has also bought the copyright to "Crazy Clerk".

However, as the boss of Hollywood's largest studio at this stage, Simon also doesn't value the next cooperation with Smith, and Daenerys Entertainment will not make films such as "Angry Crime". Taboo subjects like "Fighting the Monkey" or B-movie madmen like Quentin and Rodriguez may only arouse discomfort for some vindicators, but "Rage Against the Sky" violates the values ​​of most Americans at this stage .

Unlike many years later, in America in the early 1990s, having no faith was still a very unusual thing.

All in all, at Sundance this year, Simon values ​​David Russell the most.

In terms of the film quality of "Fighting the Monkey" itself, David Russell's first work has an ultra-high degree of completion that is difficult to achieve in other directors' first attempts. The personal style and the performance of several actors are also remarkable, which is enough to prove Russell's very solid film skills.

With such film skills and personal style, and the ability to make appropriate compromises when the studio needs it, this is the kind of director that mainstream Hollywood values ​​most.

Such a filmmaker may not be able to create a classic as long as he is given a good enough script and a good enough main creative team, but it is not difficult to achieve commercial success.

Moreover, the classics of Hollywood have always been by chance.

Whether it is commercial classics such as "Star Wars" and "Terminator" or Oscar blockbusters such as "The Godfather" and "Forrest Gump", the main creators never thought that they would become phenomenal classics before shooting.

With the support of Weinstein, the former David Russell relied on "The Line of Happiness behind the Dark Cloud" 20 years later to reach the peak of his personal career. Since he knows the suitable subject matter for this director, Simon can give it now. With the support of the other party, there is no need to let the other party explore for another twenty years.

With enough room to play, it is not impossible for Russell to create a film history classic.

"...The most critical issue is that there are so many things you want to express in this script, the hippie movement, the same-sex marriage, the federal adoption system, etc., the attention to these elements will make the audience unable to concentrate, So, first of all you need to cut the branch and focus on the discussion of modern family relations, do this, you can hope to get an Oscar nomination for screenwriting in the future, if you keep the current state, the audience will only see that one is not too much Hilarious raucous comedy..."

The people around listened to Simon patiently analyzing David Russell's new play "Flirting with Disaster", with obvious envy in their eyes.

Although Simon has not directed the film himself in recent years, no one on the scene will doubt his genius in movies. David Russell is even more eager to take a pen and write down all Simon's suggestions. Even if he hesitated because of the creator's instinctive and reserved opinions, he had to admit that Simon's suggestions were correct.
