Steven Spielberg tilted Erlang's legs, with a arrogant expression on his face, slanted eyes and looked at Hugo in front of him with his peripheral vision. He slowly picked up the coffee in front of him and took a sip. [For more exciting novels, please visit www.wuruo.com] Hugo couldn’t help but laugh at that appearance, the smile on the corner of his mouth was slightly outlined, but he did not speak, but raised his head, still watching unmoved. Looking at Steven, keeping his eyes on.

Steven raised his eyebrows lightly, and said in a disgusting tone, "Is it because I have derailed from the times? It turns out that begging for someone can also be so high-profile."

Hugo lowered his head to tidy up his smile, and tried to make a sincere gesture, "So, what do you want?"

Steven held his chin and thought seriously, "You can try it." Hugo was completely amused by Steven's seriousness, but Steven didn't care about Hugo's smile at all, and added To, "You can refer to the tone and posture I used to find you."

"You mean... there is no gesture at all?" Hugo's retort made Steven directly speechless, and in the end he could only be defeated in front of Hugo's calmness.

Steven changed his sitting position again and finally returned to his usual posture. "At least you can tell me, did you really foresee the failure of'Batman and Robin'? That's why you always face their provocations. Indifferent, Barry Meyer, a lucky bastard, everyone is expecting you to teach him a good meal. By the way, there is also'Life and Death 2'."

Hugo really laughed this time, "So what are you expecting? Do I give Barry a positive uppercut?"

"That's a good idea." Steven shrugged. "But Schumacher and Clooney obviously both calculated something. You know, Tracy Jacobs, don't you just let them go? ?"

Faced with Steven’s curiosity, Hugo really felt helpless, "I thought you would not be curious." Recently, friends have often discussed this in private. The jokes about the Avengers are already well known. But Hugo did not expect that Steven did the same. "Steven, you should know that it’s not right in this circle, but in this society, competition always exists. If you want to defeat your opponent, the best The way is always to be yourself. Just like'Batman and Robin', the limitations of their own works have led to this result, and I don't need me to act."

Steven certainly understands this truth, but he has a disgusting expression on his face, "I still prefer the Hugo who is diametrically opposed to the media reporter."

"Hehe, you mean, the person who provokes your bottom line face to face." Hugo's words made Steven roll his eyes speechlessly.

"You haven't answered my question yet." Steven asked again. Hugo was stunned. Steven had to explain, "Do you foresee the failure of'Batman and Robin'?"

"I'm not the prophet of the Indians, if this is what you want to ask." To be honest, Hugo really didn't pay much attention to "Batman and Robin" although he did know that this movie was a complete failure recently. Because of "L.A. Confidential" and his own script, he doesn't have much time to pay attention to other lace news.

Steven was also amused by Hugo. "So, you can at least tell me, Heath Ledger, where did you find this little guy." Hugo opened his mouth and wanted to explain, Steven But he intercepted it directly, "Don't try to fool me, Rick told me, it was your recommendation."

"So, can I take it as the meaning of good news?" Hugo did not answer, but asked rhetorically.

Steven didn't joking any more this time, he nodded directly, "James Ryan is definitely played by Heath." This is great news for Endeavour Elite Brokerage, and it also means The biggest difficulty of "Saving Private Ryan" has passed.

"I thought you would choose Russell. I didn't expect it to be Heath." Hugo was indeed quite surprised. Heath, who is less than 20 years old this year, has already shown an enviable talent in acting. It is not an easy task to be able to convince the countless Steven who has read it. Hugo himself has experienced it.

Lifting his head, Hugo saw Steven’s puzzled eyes, he laughed, "In fact, it was just an accident, do you believe it?" Hugo briefly told the story of how Samora met Heath. After that, Steven shook his head again and again.

"That's why everyone says Los Angeles is the capital of opportunity, isn't it?" Steven exclaimed.

Hugo ignored Steven's feelings and leaned forward slightly, "So, are you interested?"

Steven finally got serious at this time, "Why did you think of creating such a screenplay? Such a small work, but discussing such a serious and profound topic? Moreover, you also asked such an ironic topic. ?" Steven looked at the script on his right hand, still couldn't help laughing.

"L.A. Confidential" was officially announced two weeks ago, ending the intensive and compact shooting, and now the entire crew is intensively conducting post-production. It took Hugo two weeks to complete his own script, and finally came up with a very subtle title, "As... As. It. Gets". The three protagonists in the story all have their own quirks and persistence. , Is an existence that is almost marginalized by society, but is doing its best to pursue the impossible perfection. All these thoughts are concentrated on this title.

As Steven said, full of irony.

A week ago, Hugo successively took the script to meet with Hollywood's top producers, directors and investors, and officially started the project. The first one he found was Steven, but Hugo didn’t even talk about the project directly, because he knew that now it’s not difficult to find investment by relying on his name. He hopes to find a real Those who are interested in the project dig out the depth and thickness of this work. Therefore, Hugo still hopes that the other party can talk to each other after reading the script.

Steven is the first.

Faced with Steven’s question, Hugo thought for a while, "As long as you look at people for a longer time, you will find their human touch." This answer was not the question asked, but Steven was silent, and he thought about it carefully. The three characters in the story can taste endless details.

As currently the top actor in Hollywood, Hugo is most well-known not for his personality, not his achievements, not his charm, but his picky and critical work. Almost no one can grasp the taste of Hugo's selection of works, but there is no doubt that Hugo's requirements for the script are extremely demanding.

Similarly, this requirement is also reflected in Hugo's screenwriting work. The work "Before Sunrise" vividly shows the process of pulling, speculating, and sparking between men and women. The seemingly boring, ordinary, and tedious dialogue contains endless wisdom. The charm of the lines is brought to the extreme.

And this time, Hugo took his excavation of the role to the extreme in the "Perfectly Perfect" script. When Steven read the script, he felt this charm. At the very beginning of the script, Hugo set himself up with an almost irreconcilable contradiction, and then as the story progresses, one link is unraveled, and this process is different from that. Generally, love movies are quite different. They are a bit sour, astringent, a bit spicy, and there is no sweetness at all, but they can't help but indulge in them.

Those seemingly unintentional details outline the character little by little. Even when Steven is in the process of reading the script, he can clearly outline the image in his mind. The powerful sense of picture is impressive. Absolutely. But at the same time, Steven also clearly knows that this puts high demands on the actors. It is unimaginable to fully display the countless details of Hugo's integration into the script and truly integrate it into the character.

Steven nodded slightly. What he must admit is that as a screenwriter, Hugo's sophistication and delicacy are very rare. The "Perfect" script is like a cup of coffee. Only by savoring it can you appreciate it. Beautiful, too, as long as you carefully taste it, you can discover the profound knowledge.

"Who do you plan to use for the three protagonists?" This is also Steven's biggest worry after seeing the script. Because this script is not the biggest test for the director, the actors are. It is definitely not an easy task to meet the high requirements of Hugo's script. Once the casting fails, such an excellent script will become a mess.

A question Hugo knows that Steven has seriously thought about it, "I intend to play the actor by myself. In the process of writing, to a large extent I build it on my own. I also hope to challenge myself again and challenge a comedy character." Hugo has never concealed his comedy ambitions, so Steven is no stranger, "The heroine's words... to be honest, I'm still thinking, Ni But Kidman, Holly Hunt, Julia Roberts, Emma Thompson are all under consideration."

What Hugo did not say is that he actually thought of Cate Blanchett (Cate. Bla), but after investigating in the Screen Actors Guild, he learned that Kate has just joined Hollywood and it was her first time in 1997. In the year of the screen, Hugo is also not sure whether Kate has enough profound skills to interpret the heroine.

"As for the neighbor, I was thinking about Edward Norton (Edward.) or John Cusack (.)."

After Hugo's words were finished, Steven thought in silence for a while, frowning slightly, as if struggling with a problem. Hugo did not speak either, but quietly gave Steven space. After a long time, Steven shook his head slowly, "Hugo, don't you think, in fact, you are not suitable for the role of the male protagonist?"
