"Guessing the train" is the kind of script. Compared with the characters, the whole movie exudes a charming charm, which makes people want to be a part of it involuntarily. The fierce and unruly picture is amazing and uncontrollable. The place of residence sighs the whimsical ideas of the film industry.
But when Hugo asked Rick to start the script, Rick’s words broke all Hugo’s illusions, "This is a script that no one cares about. Even we ignore it, and don’t even want to give it. Other artists in the company, how do you think they might want to find you?"
Indeed, although cost is also an important issue, more importantly, a movie like "Guessing the Train" with a rebellious rock atmosphere in its bones, it disdains to use a "top star" like Hugo to make Hugo a movie. Part of it is a big failure. Hugo's reputation, popularity and appeal will make the movie lose its original taste, and make the audience's attention away from the story itself. This is a disaster.
Hugo also understands this fact, so Rick said, "Guess the train" did not send out an invitation like him at all, which is excusable.
Although Hugo knows this is the case, he also knows that "Guess the Train" is still more suitable for Ivan McGregor, and now "Guess the Train" has been completed a long time ago, but Hugo is still full of regrets in his heart.
Looking at the "training guessing" in his hand, Hugo reluctantly put it aside after all, his eyes fell on the "Clockwork Orange" on the beach chair, Hugo secretly thought, after reading this book, he should Go find out the original "Guessing the Train" and read it carefully.
After reluctantly giving up "Guessing the Train", Hugo looked at the big box of scripts in a daze, and couldn't help but sighed. It really wasn't that the more scripts the better, after all, he still has to be suitable for himself. Choosing a script also requires fate and luck. The perfect script that suits you is not so easy to come across.
With nearly forty scripts, the only ones left in front of Hugo were "first-degree fear" and "English patient".
"First-degree fear" Hugo personally appreciates it very much, and it is also his favorite work, but the role repetition is too high, so Hugo can't take much interest, but he looks forward to Edward Norton's debut in this work. China turned out to be a shiny big screen. Although Edward is never a Hollywood star, his talents cannot be ignored, especially his humility, his low-key, and his dedication are always admirable.
As for "British Patient", objectively speaking, this is a good work. Leaving aside the Oscars, Anthony Minghella also gave it many stylized features, which is worthy of recognition. However, after reading so many scripts and missing "Guess the Train", Hugo was also somewhat distracted and uninterested.
But after thinking about it, I stayed there after all and let's see what happens later.
In this way, Hugo’s next work is likely to be born between the "British Patient" and "Independence Day". This is a very interesting thing. One is an academic work that swept Oscars, and the other is The commercial popcorn works that swept the box office, even though the box office of the "British Patient" has almost doubled after being affirmed by the Oscar, the box office in North America has reached 78 million, and the global box office has reached 230 million, too. An exceptionally outstanding work at the box office has brought its own epic character and Oscar effect to the extreme, but the attributes of these two works are fundamentally different.
However, this is not necessarily the case. The "British Patient" should not rank Hugo as the first choice, and he is indeed not the best candidate; and the situation of "Independence Day" still depends on the subsequent development, maybe the two works are raining. Guo missed everything, and instead chose another work. This is not impossible.
After all, this is Hollywood, everything is possible.
What's interesting is that almost none of the scripts that Rick submitted this time talked about remuneration, and Rick didn't discuss this topic with Hugo in particular. It can also be seen from this that after experiencing the "Mission Impossible" wave, the major Hollywood studios are now very cautious.
On the one hand, everyone is quite sure that Hugo’s pay is more than 15 million, but works that can afford this price are often commercial blockbusters, and they are not sure what commercial blockbusters can impress Hugo. Including the 20th Century Fox is the same. Kevin's temptation and preparation in the previous few months, like a fox around Hugo, is actually this mentality.
But on the other hand, Hugo is not repulsive of independent films, and he doesn’t mind the super low pay, which makes it impossible for film companies to directly abandon their fascination with art films, just like "far from the gambling city". If you can invite When Hugo starred, Twentieth Century Fox must have invested with the intention of hitting awards.
Therefore, the attitude of the film company seems vague, and does not intend to impress Hugo with the pay, everything speaks in the script. This also led to a wide variety of scripts submitted.
After making the decision, Hugo was not in a hurry to tell Rick his conclusion. After all, it only took him a few hours to finish reading nearly forty scripts. This is too shocking, so let Rick first. Go and talk to Roland Emmerich after they finish talking.
Just as Hugo began to select the next work one after another, the screening of "Death Convict's Walk" has quietly approached.
As the most topical work in the second half of this year, "Death Prisoner's Walk" was really not a "hot spot" before that. No one could have expected that such an independent work with a remote subject would actually surpass "Toy Story". , "The Brave Game" and other commercial blockbusters have become the most anticipated works at the end of the year. This is also an unprecedented situation.
Everyone is wondering what kind of work Hugo was schizophrenic during the performance, and what a wonderful performance Hugo contributed to the movie to force him into the corner!
Although it was on-demand, after the "Tonight Show" aired, "Death Row" has undoubtedly become the most anticipated work in the near future.
Hidden behind the dazzling aura of "Death Row", "Twelve Monkeys" was officially screened in the same week, and both films were selected in three theaters for screening.
Although there is suspicion of hype, people still have to lament that Hugo and Brad are like fateful competitors. Unlike Tom Cruise, who became famous when he was young, Hugo and Brad both really started the road to superstars in 1992. The previous little jokes are more like the media deliberately putting the two people on the opposite side of the competition in order to hype news. On the other hand, similar competitors will artificially create a pair almost every three to five media to attract the focus.
But what is unexpected is that Hugo and Brad actually collided with sparks, and both rose up, first Hugo and then Brad. At the end of last year, "Pulp Fiction" followed up with "Interview with Vampire" and "Burning Love". The duel of "Yue Yue" has pushed this duel to a whole new level and reached its peak state among the "Seven Deadly Sins".
These two competitors are undoubtedly the best representatives of Hollywood’s "Yuliang complex" at present, even surpassing Hugo and Tom Cruise, Brad and Tom Cruise, the two pairs of competitors, the degree of attention Directly break the table.
This time, "Death Row" and "Twelve Monkeys" will be screened on the same theater on the same day. It will undoubtedly be a showdown between Mars and the Earth.
Objectively speaking, "Twelve Monkeys" should be regarded as a commercial film at all. This film, which is classified as a suspense and thriller like the "Seven Deadly Sins", has a different charm after adding science fiction elements. The investment cost of 29 million U.S. dollars shows the ambition of Universal Pictures. This is completely different from the "death prisoner walk" with an investment cost of only 11 million. From planning to intention to target groups and box office Expectations are totally different works.
"Twelve Monkeys" obviously hopes to make a difference at the box office, Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt's new partner, and invited the industry's well-known Terry Gilliam (terry.) to direct , Demonstrating Universal Pictures’ desire for the box office and confidence in this work, they even hope to replicate the success of the "Seven Deadly Sins".
However, from a cautious perspective, Universal Pictures also chose to test the waters in the first week, hoping to formulate a follow-up comprehensive release plan based on feedback from professional film critics and viewers.
However, regardless of the follow-up plan and final goal, "Twelve Monkeys" was the opposite of "Death Row" in the first week, and the two films were held in three theaters in Los Angeles at the same time on December 15th. Click on What's more, there are rumors in the circle that Hugo was first found in the "Twelve Monkeys" script. After Hugo refused, it fell into Brad's hands. Such rumors are even more true. Added a lot of gunpowder smell.
This means that the two films will be compared in all directions, and the performance of Hugo and Brad is bound to ignite all the attention, once again igniting the end of the year.
Regardless of whether the parties are willing to admit it or not, it is undeniable that Hugo and Brad are real fateful opponents, and the two are bound to be compared and discussed by the media in all aspects. This is already an established destiny. Brad has never evaded this point. He has recognized this since the audition for "Dahe Love"; and Hugo has never been afraid of competition. Although he does not like hype, he will not back down. , Healthy competition will only make him full of motivation to move forward.
From the beginning of the duel, Brad had the upper hand, then Hugo took the lead, Brad was struggling to catch up, and recently Hugo completely suppressed Brad, these two competitors are writing history, then this time " What will be the result of the first week of the duel between "Death Row" and "Twelve Monkeys"?
Not to mention how the box office performed, nor how the film critics rated it, at least in terms of the level of attention that was shown, "Death Row" is already half of the lead!
