[US Entertainment] Kise's Hollywood Diary

Hayden Christensen went in for an audition, and Vincent temporarily took off his glasses. Although the lenses are just ordinary flat lenses, for a person who is not used to wearing glasses, it is still a little uncomfortable to wear them for a long time.

Frank looked at his watch and muttered, "He's been in for almost 10 minutes, what do you think?"

"How can I see it, can casting the leading actor be the same as other supporting actors?" Vincent blew on the window, "Spring is coming."

"Yeah, the weather is getting warmer recently." Frank said "tsk" in dissatisfaction as soon as he finished speaking, "Why do you always get me off topic!"

Just as Vincent drew a pair of round ears against the foggy glass, Hayden Christensen came out of the audition office, looking in a good mood.I saw Vincent standing by the window at a glance, raised his arm and waved.

But this time he didn't come to talk, because his manager, who was not very gentle, quickly grabbed Hayden's shoulders, and the two hurried out of the hall.

"pity."

"What's the pity?" Frank asked.

"It's nothing, Frank, I want a pet."

"Why? Sudden thought?" Mr. Manager was confused by the thoughtless conversation. He stared carefully at Vincent's face to make sure that the other party was not joking.

"Well, I just want to know, if you want to keep a pet, do you have enough time to take care of it? If you have to fly all over the world in the future, what will it do? In a pet store? Or give it to your parents keep?"

Frank directly asked a lot of questions, but Vincent was obviously not joking. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket, thought about it carefully and said, "I'll make a call with Philips and Mark later, maybe they will Willing to take care of my Finny."

"Finny? Who's Finny?"

"Little Phoenix, my pet, the name I decided to name him, is it nice?" Vincent showed a very happy smile, and with the blessing effect of his glasses today, the wall lamp by the window poured down, letting him The whole person seemed to be bathed in holy light.

Frank covered his forehead in pain, "Please, I thought you were past the age where you wanted to live with pets, Vincent. Are you planning to raise a bird?"

"Of course not. Birds have wings. I'm afraid I can't take them for a walk." Vincent shook his head as a matter of course. An ordinary tricolor cat."

Vincent was serious, and it didn't look like he was joking, or just passing it off on a whim.

This perception is terrible, Frank thought, but he couldn't think of a good reason to prevent the other party from keeping a pet - after all, Vincent didn't have a girlfriend, so should he be deprived of the right to have a close pet?

"So, after the audition is over, I plan to buy a cat or adopt a cat."

As soon as the voice fell, the staff reported Vincent's audition number.

Pushing open the door, Vincent's gaze first fell on Martin Scorsese sitting in the center. This Hollywood director who was nominated for the Oscar for Best Director for "Gangs of New York" last year is also using a Slightly icy eyes looked at himself.

Sitting next to Martin Scorsese is Billy Ray, the screenwriter of "To Cover Up", an elderly screenwriter who is well-known in the industry.

In 1998, after the sensational fake news incident in the United States, former "New Republic" magazine reporter Stephen Glass, who was also the protagonist of the biggest scandal in the American media, although he lost his career and reputation, he did not seem to enter desperate situation.Because he later launched his own autobiographical novel, relying on the royalties from the publication of this autobiographical novel, this well-known "liar" in the United States earned millions of dollars in income.

The movie that was supposed to start filming about a year or two after the incident happened, but due to some reasons, there was no filming. It wasn't until the New York Times reporter Jason Blair's fraudulent incident that was exposed at the end of last year caused another sensation. This led to the urgent start of filming of "To Conceal".

Hbd Home Theater of America had previously hired Billy Wray to rewrite the script of this almost never-to-be-forgotten scandal.And the rumor that Martin Scorsese, who has been true and false before, directed "To Cover Up" seems to have become a conclusion now-because this great director is sitting in the middle of the audition interviewer's seat.

On his other hand sat Tom Cruise, the Golden Globe winner who was over [-] years old with a slight smile on his lips and gentle eyes.Just like the choices that all older actors will make, while they are shooting movies, they have already hidden half of their bodies behind the scenes, and have begun to make transitions such as producers and directors.

And Tom Cruise is also in this list, although he still looks very handsome at the age of 41.

In addition, there is a casting director and another producer Mark Butan sitting on the table, and the rest are busy recording data and process staff.

Martin Scorsese glanced at the young man with glasses in front of him, and nodded slightly: "Good preparation. Then, let me see your performance."

With that said, Martin Scorsese stared at the person in front of him for a few seconds, lowered his head and flipped through the script in his hand, and said quickly: "Then, let's try this scene. Stephen complained to his old boss Michael, trying to Scrub yourself."

When this scene happened, Stephen Glass's huge deception had been gradually exposed, and his once solid "front" had gradually collapsed. Caitlin unsolicited an email to their mutual old boss, Michael.

In the email, Caitlin mentioned that Stephen's current state is worse than death. Although he was not fired by Chuck, who had replaced Michael as the current editor-in-chief of the "New Republic", he was suspended for two years.

However, Stephen, who was calculating all the developments, still did not give up struggling. He appeared in the building where Stephen worked "out of his mind". Distressed.Can Stephen, who is good at manipulating people's hearts, persuade his old boss Michael to intercede for himself and even wash away his suspicion of fabrication?

Well, the audition will unfold from here.

Surprisingly, Martin did not let the staff speak to Vincent.

Tom Cruise stood up from his seat, and he walked in front of Vincent, "So, let's get started, Stephen?"

Two chairs were placed in the center of the venue. Originally, this scene was a conversation between two people sitting on the steps, but in order for the interviewers sitting on the seats to see the facial expressions and details of the people more carefully, it was placed here. two chairs.

"I am dead."

Vincent rested his head on the back of the chair, propped up one leg, and leaned the other stiffly on the side—this was a very decadent sitting posture.

The gaze under his eyes couldn't find the focus, as if he was wandering, and seemed to be attracted by something and stared at a certain place.

"I mean, I'm done..."

Tom Cruise frowned slightly, with a little worry on his face.Michael was Stephen's first boss. At the same time, he brought up Stephen, who had just joined the job, and watched him grow. The relationship between the two is also a teacher and a friend.

Vincent's chest was slightly undulating, and the hem of his suit jacket was pressed under his buttocks. The jacket was open to reveal the light blue shirt inside, and his thin but not weak waist was particularly noticeable because the hem of the shirt was tucked into the trousers. obvious.This is exactly the image of a young man emaciated due to frustration in the workplace.

"No one will hire me anymore, right?"

As he said that, Vincent laughed at himself amidst Tom Cruise's hesitant expression, "I was too hasty, I just believed my informant like that, and then, I lied... and I happened to be with Chuck lied."

The young man curled up half of the corner of his mouth and tilted his head slightly. He seemed to be broken, and he didn't care about anything anymore.

"I mean, he always hated me."

In front of Michael, Stephen has always been a little willful, because the other party has always been willing to tolerate his behavior.At this time, Stephen was clearly about to be exposed by the whole line, but he still tried to make Michael feel guilty with the reason "Because I only agree that you are my boss from the beginning to the end, so Chuck has been targeting me"...

Michael raised his eyebrows, "I can be sure that there is no personal subjective element in this matter."

"No?" The young man snorted coldly, "Chuck has always had a list in his head, and the list records everyone who belongs to the 'Michael Kelly Gang'. A few times, I said something that shouldn't be said... ...is about you."

Facing Michael was no longer gentle, but with slightly oppressive eyes, Stephen thought about the old boss's bottom line, licked his dry lips, lowered his eyes, and closed his eyelashes slightly: "Now my retribution is coming, so he That's why you're going to kill me."

Tom Cruise secretly admired the appeal in his heart, and while continuing his performance, he nodded his head vigorously and slowly, and said earnestly: "Well, I have to tell you, Stephen, he has the right to do this. You have to know that what you have done is enough to be fired."

Vincent stretched out one hand and waved it casually. He propped the other hand on the seat, trying to straighten himself up a bit, "I know, I didn't say no, I did something terrible... Yes, terrible things."

As he spoke, he folded his legs, slowly put them on the chair and stretched out his hands to wrap around his knees, putting himself in a very self-protective state.

The young man turned his face and glanced at Michael, "But you have to believe me, Michael, Chuck doesn't care about these things. He punished me like this because of my sincerity to you."

"I'm so stupid, who else will hire me now?" Vincent showed a vague expression when he said this, a half-smile, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and a pair of eyes under the frame stared persistently at the ground a certain floor.

"So, Stephen, I have to ask you some questions. When I was your boss, did you... ever 'cook up' a manuscript?"

Tom Cruise asked the words he had been thinking in his heart in a slightly relaxed tone trying to make the two of them less awkward.

As if he heard something unbelievable, the young man turned his neck a little slowly. He opened a pair of blue eyes. The admiration and admiration in his eyes has disappeared, replaced by a kind of "You don't believe me anymore Well, why do you still ask?"

The last hope of the young man seemed to have been shattered, and his increasingly hollow eyes finally revealed a trace of sadness—the sense of powerlessness that no matter how hard he struggled, there was no hope.

Hollywood Diary (30)

From Tom Cruise's current appearance, it is completely impossible to see that he was once a young actor who relied on his face for food.

Of course, I don't mean that he is ugly now, but I am thinking, if I am 40 years old and haven't got the statuette, will I have to deliberately uglify my image.

Regardless of other things, use this miserable face to get some sympathy points from the academy first.
