super actress
Chapter 53
According to the final statistics, the number of viewers of this episode of "Oprah's Talk Show" reached 2500 million, and the ratings peaked in the second half of the program.
Compared with the highest record of 1993 million set by this ace show with Michael Jackson in 6200, the viewership of 2500 million is nothing, even just the average weekly viewership of this show.
但是《奥普拉脱口秀》一周平均收视都在1800~3500万之间,相对来说10月份是淡季,会对节目的收视造成影响,最近几期的《奥普拉脱口秀》的收看人数就一直在2000万上下徘徊,甚至有两期没有突破2000万。
But in this episode, they neither invited big-name stars nor celebrities, but used a Hollywood rookie who had just started to raise the ratings to 2500 million, and also increased the ratings of the month through low cost. Then, next, the show The planning of the second half of the month will be much easier when the group arranges.
In the face of such a huge benefit return, it is undoubtedly a very cost-effective thing to invite Rhea Nolen to be a guest, so the dissatisfaction of the National Parent-Teacher Association is not a big threat.
The show has made it very clear that the guests themselves want to confide in the public, and Rhea Noren has also gained popularity through this most popular talk show in the United States. It is a win-win situation for both parties of.
The most notable direct benefit in a short period of time is her movie that has not yet been released.
In the afternoon of the same day, "Lolita", whose attendance rate in major theaters in North America had fallen below 40%, rose back to over 50%. It seems that there is still a possibility to tap the box office potential again. "'s strong influence proves that their publicity strategy has moved the audience.
The ups and downs of the film's box office numbers are a direct reflection of the project's success, and anyone involved has been rewarded.
Twentieth Century Fox Film Company wants to reap more profits from the DVD sales of "Lolita". Similar to "Lolita", DVD sales can often earn more profits than box office. So they traded other assets and Mario for the whole movie.
Thanks to this, the next new film plan of Mario Caesar's production company is also going well.
Director Adrian Lane has received many invitations to literary films, and the leading actor Jeremy Irons has also received many roles similar to Humbert. Although the screenwriter Stephen Schiffer has received more criticism, but He is still rated by the media as
It is very likely to enter the list of nominees for Oscar's best adapted screenplay.
But in the horizontal comparison, the person who has benefited the most must be the most eye-catching and topical heroine Rhea Noren.
When the film was screened, some film critics began to pay attention to her. Irving Gilberman of "Entertainment Weekly" praised her emphatically. Empathy and acting talent.
Just as the media began to dig deeper into this new face of Hollywood, she took the initiative to reveal everything except herself on the platform of the talk show.
Her backstory is amazing, but the effect she does so is even more amazing.
Even the "Hollywood Reporter", which has the most thorough analysis of "Lolita"'s promotional methods and public opinion reversals, did not expect that the film company would be willing to put such an attractive hot spot on the upcoming end of "Lolita". At that time, under the previous layers of foreshadowing, "Oprah's Talk Show" was the second climax that suddenly jumped up. In terms of follow-up impact, it was even greater than the word-of-mouth counterattack of the previous movies.
Some reporters have already exclaimed in the media: Has Fox invited Rooney Chasen, a top Hollywood publicist, to promote the movie?
This series of methods can be called the most eye-catching public relations in Hollywood this year, and "Lolita" will be included in the selection of classic public relations cases more than ten years later.
When "Lolita" became popular, Lolita became even more popular.
Even if Hollywood people understand what's going on in their hearts, they can't stop the audience from being attracted by the cruel past and the image created by Rhea on the show, which is even more dramatic than the story in the movie.
The ending of the movie is an extreme tragedy, but reality has left people with infinite hope. For the first time, people discovered that reality is better than drama.
Like Lolita, Rhea also had a person who led her astray in her life, and she was even worse than Lolita, because her biological mother forced her to go like this. In the end, Lolita walked away from Humbert. She ran away at the cost of ruining all future lives, but Rhea was saved, she got a new family, and ushered in a new life.
But unlike Lolita, Rhea's life is not a well-written literary work, nor is it a finished film adaptation. Her ending is not predetermined, and her future still has infinite possibilities.
What makes people hopeful is that Rhea is really working hard in a better direction. She has no self-pity, nor does she give up on herself. How can such a character image not
Attract the favor of the audience.
This kind of strength is not what she said, but it is intuitively shown to the camera, so the audience is more likely to be moved.
While showing her advantages, this blond girl who is completely different from Lolita's image also unreservedly revealed her own shortcomings. Sentenced.
Rhea didn't speak in detail on the show, but as soon as she opened this topic, the media would naturally follow up, and she was even able to analyze her life from birth to the present very thoroughly.
Now that they have decided to do this, Rhea and her team will not stop those media from digging up those past events, as long as they don’t disturb her current family, and those who distort the facts and report that she voluntarily became The tabloids run by virgins will only make the public more dissatisfied and angry. As soon as they see news that slanders her, people will immediately write letters to complain and report.
The New York Police Department has archives and records, and some well-connected newspapers and magazines can knock out some details. However, after filtering through a layer of Andre Witte's network, they will only get good words towards Rhea.
She has already paid the fee to Andri, so she can't waste it.
The "Lolita" controversy began when the National Parent-Teacher Association expressed its dissatisfaction with the American Film Association's classification, and also protested Fox Films' decision to put the film on the screen. Comments issued, this disguised support has effectively maintained the film's reputation.
This is also protecting Rhea. The girl's case was also handled by them.
The image of the victim does not necessarily only bring harm. The most favored by the audience will never be the perfect goddess. Only people with flaws can resonate with the audience.
It is because of flaws that it is more real and close to the people, and the audience can also bring psychological satisfaction and pleasure when they sympathize with the stars. In the big and small screens, flawed characters have always been more loved by the audience. Too perfect It looks hypocritical, and once it collapses, it will decline to the bottom and be even more hated.
But there are too many shortcomings and it is not worthy of being liked by people, so Rhea must be excellent, and she is indeed excellent. The stacking of various elements can gather popularity for her.
This was designed by Ken Sanshan by combining all of Rhea's background and experience. Of course, he also considered Rhea's character. In fact, what he first thought of was the classic American sweetheart image, but considering the background conditions
Due to the influence of the incident, he finally gave up this old beauty's favorite image.
While Hollywood is full of sweethearts, the abundance of this genre is proof that audience tastes still haven't changed much.
The 90s is almost the golden age of American sweethearts. Sweethearts are no longer innocent girls who don’t know the world, but urban women who are casual and romantic, more mature and sexy. The leader of sweethearts in this era is Meg Ray En and Julia Roberts also became famous by relying on chick movies, but Roberts' transformation was even more successful.
However, Rhea's temperament is not in line with Sweetheart's impression. Of course, she can also smile sweetly, but compared to the charming Meg and Julia, who has a friendly smile, Rhea is still too cold a little bit.
And she didn't become famous by relying on love movies, so she will naturally be far behind sweetheart.
But Ken didn't completely abandon this image that Americans especially favor, and he put his hopes on the next "Romeo and Juliet" movie.
After recording "Oprah's Talk Show", Rhea no longer wants to go back to school quietly. Once a gap is opened, the media will flock to it. If she doesn't know the truth of going too far, she is really afraid that she will Can't go back to Queens, New York.
The attention of the media pushed her to more people, and there were criticisms and debates, but in general, Rhea may still get good reviews, but she and the team can't feel at ease, just like they were worried at the beginning, there have been more and more people. More and more people started calling her Lolita.
A big character who has a lot to do with "Lolita" leads things to another scene.
"I don't know if Nabokov would like this kind of "Lolita", but I have to admit, I like this adaptation very much. If Rhea Noren was born 13 years earlier, I would also choose her to play the heroine . - Stanley Kubrick"
"Is this really what Kubrick said?" From the slogan on the cover of "Variety Show" to the interviews with characters on the inside page, Rhea still couldn't believe it.
Malloy nodded affirmatively: "What do you think?"
Receiving such an evaluation from the legendary director, Rhea felt mixed emotions, Stanley Kubrick almost said that she is the best Lolita, for the role she plays, this is the best praised.
But for her, it is not necessarily a positive comment. Once this kind of comment comes out, she is equivalent to being labeled as a Lolita, just like she did it for this
The way the character was born.
But thinking about it on the other hand, even Stanley Kubrick was alarmed to speak out. It seems that the impact of "Lolita" is indeed phenomenal.
Although Kubrick has been rumored to be coming back in recent years, it is impossible for a director of his status to use "Lolita" to create momentum.
Quite the contrary, Kubrick's words might have helped her get into some nominations.
Putting aside worries about future roles and images, Rhea looked to her agent, and she allowed herself to enjoy the compliment: "Is this our first success?"
Fuck his kinky role, fuck his underage porn star, she did play Lolita well, she is a qualified and excellent actress.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Malloy saved those consolations: "When you get your first leading actress, we have already taken the first step in Hollywood!"
They looked at each other, and then Rhea had to go back to school, and Malloy had other things to do, but at this moment, they could relax for a while.
Laughing, Malloy suddenly asked her a question: "Why on earth did you want to play this role, Rhea?"
"You're not a role play fool, or a whimsical ignorant, I convinced you why you can't be Lolita, but you still want to play it, don't you?"
Rhea twitched the corner of her mouth: "I thought I said it once in "Oprah's Talk Show."
The version she said was of course revised based on the facts. After consultation with the crew, the final version was that Stephen Schiffer’s script moved her, and she wanted to use this role to warn girls to be wary of adults with evil intentions .
Malloy smiled helplessly, "Ken and I came up with that together, and I can tell you countless reasons to move you, come on, Rhea, just tell me, I'm just curious."
"Well, there's no particular reason." Rhea muttered, "I just want to play this role, I want to play Lolita, even if the script hasn't been changed, I want to play, she seduces old men but doesn't Shame on her, she's terribly precocious and surprisingly childish, she's trying to play Humbert to her own detriment."
"As an image, Lolita may not be beautiful, but as a character, she is good enough."
Restricted by the Chinese entertainment industry, she has never acted in such a role, so there are so many reasons why,
She just wants to act.
Unexpectedly by Rhea, Malloy laughed loudly: "This is much cuter than I thought." He looked at Rhea with a smile in his eyes, maybe there was some irony in his words Yes, but Malloy said it very sincerely.
Rhea rolled her eyes unappreciatively.
Her agent didn't care either: "It's time for us to start preparing the dresses. The nominations for the major awards will come out soon. "Lolita" will be released in the second half of the year. This is still beneficial to us. At least the judges will There are some deep impressions about this movie."
Rhea didn't quite understand Malloy's self-confidence. Although "Lolita" was indeed a success, there were many excellent movies this year. How could Malloy be sure that she would be included in the nomination list? So she I had to ask: "You seem to be very confident?"
Malloy replied firmly: "I believe in you."
In fact, Rhea's own confidence is not very high. She doesn't think she can't play the roles in other movies. It's just that the theme of "Lolita" is too small. The only political correctness is to aggravate the anti-pedophilia. Color, but this genre has never won the favor of the Oscars.
This year's awards are "Braveheart" and "Apollo 13". received many positive reviews.
Compared with these movies that are close to the main theme, "Lolita" is indeed too biased.
But Rhea soon learned why Malloy was so confident, because Julie Anchar gave him a call.
Malloy made a gesture to her to make her quiet, and then in front of her, a minor, he calmly made an appointment with her for the next meeting, which was at the Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles.
Rhea wanted to pretend that she didn't know what to do, but Malloy's overly calm and natural attitude still made her unable to resist asking, "So, you made an appointment at the hotel where you work?"
But his skills are much higher than Rhea's. Malloy smiled meaningfully at her: "When we are working, we can settle some private matters by the way, killing two birds with one stone."
His smile made Rhea a little creepy, and she couldn't help exclaiming: "Julie Anchar is going to be 40 years old!"
"You will also be 40 one day." Malloy in turn taught Rhea: "I don't even know, you still have age discrimination, Rhea, don't treat women like that."
so mean. "
Rhea stared at him: "Age is not a problem, the problem is that she is already married, this is the Matthew you told me, she has a husband and two children, the oldest one is not much younger than you!"
He sighed at her: "I'm very surprised, you are so mature and calm, but why you are always so serious in some inexplicable places, this is nothing in Hollywood."
Rhea didn't like Malloy's current attitude, and she didn't like the idea that the relationship in the entertainment industry was messy at all. "Is that an open marriage? Does Julie's husband know?"
"Rhea." Malloy stopped, "Okay, next time I'll pay attention in front of you."
She knew that arguing with her agent was not a wise thing now, it was a personal choice, so after hesitating a few times, she still kept her mouth shut, but before getting out of the car, Rhea still asked the question in her heart.
"Then if Andre Witter can make me the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress this year, would you suggest that I climb into his bed?"
This example was just Rhea's random thought, and Malloy had always suspected that Andri had ulterior motives, so she thought of Andri at this time.
After staring at her for a while, Malloy asked her back: "Then will you refuse?"
"No, I don't want to." Rhea replied quickly and firmly, "If one day I am going to die and someone uses this to threaten me to sleep with him, then I will definitely accept it, but I won't die if I don't win the prize , I don't want to accept."
Malloy knew what she liked, so he asked another question: "What if it's to get a role you want?"
"I don't want to." Rhea's answer still refused: "Creating a fake image, consuming childhood shadows, showing off stupidity and sexiness to the camera, in order to get a good script and a good role, I am willing to do all of these, but now the dominant The body is me, and I can't let this body be sold a second time, Matthew."
Not to mention that her own personality is a bit fake and high-minded, even for the dead Rhea Nolen, she can't do such a thing again, Jones Colt sold it once, and that can only be the only one once.
Of course, her moral character is not so supreme, and Rhea has done the miserable routine of selling herself, but there are some things that can be done, and some things can't be done, and she has set a bottom line for herself.
Malloy nodded: "I see."
Rhea was terrified that it wasn't Malloy who
Although she and Julie Anchar got together, in fact, there were signs of this before. What she was afraid of was that one day Malloy would take her to someone else's bed. Although they had been working together for a while, in order to prevent the future If something unpleasant happens, it's better to say something clearly.
"Okay then." He shrugged his shoulders, covering the overly heavy topic with half-truth and half-fake humor, "If Andri can really give you an Oscar statuette, don't you say he doesn't like women? , then I will try to see if I can climb into his bed myself."
He is really good at talking, Rhea sighed again, at least now she was disgusted by that scene, once interrupted, the serious atmosphere could not be maintained.
Seeing some anxiety on that face, Rhea suppressed other questions. In fact, she wanted to ask Julie Anchar what she promised to make him agree. He didn't seem to be attracted by Julie at all. attracted to.
But she is not qualified to say anything more. Malloy has not been forced or forced others for this kind of thing you like. Even if you are a friend, Rhea can't judge anything.
It is enough to explain the moral bottom line of both parties and confirm that they do not violate each other.
But when she got out of Malloy's car, Rhea's mentality was more complicated than before she got in the car. Can upset her.
She doesn't know if Malloy hooked up with Jolie because of her nomination, but it must have had something to do with it, and now it's not just about her, it's not like Rhea can change the project if she wants to Yes, every appearance of her is closely related to the whole team behind it.
In the final analysis, it is because their status is not enough and their ability is low that they cannot bypass such means.
Taking a deep breath, Rhea restrained those thoughts, and returned to the school with a quieter atmosphere from the applause and cheers under the spotlight, and then she had to go to Leo Mashaw, the director of Weber Middle School, to sell her vacation.
Rhea was ready to receive comments and strange looks, but unexpectedly, the reactions of teachers and students were very gentle. If it was in the public Queens High School, this kind of explosive news would definitely go viral, but in Weber School, Whatever people thought of her in private, on the surface there was just the right amount of sympathy and concern.
Her roommate, Jessica Lee, even hugged her and cried, complaining that Rhea was always silent. There is no doubt that she is now the man of the year in Weber Middle School.
.
Whether it's a star chaser or someone who doesn't like her high-profile attitude, her attitude is very friendly.
This proves that it was the right choice for her to go to this famous private school at any cost. The quality of the students here is much better. Lisa Karen, who is racially discriminatory, is an exception, and she was severely punished by the school.
The movie "Lolita" came to an end, and the North American box office miraculously reached 7000 million U.S. dollars. To 5000 million, which is much better than the expected [-] million US dollars.
Now Rhea not only has the box office miracle bonus of her screen debut, the praise of Kubrick, the legendary director who filmed the first version of "Lolita" and the appreciation of major film critics, but also the [-]th Century Fox film company. Be a backer.
Under the shadow of these auras, it seems that it is not too strange for her to be nominated for the People's Choice Award for Favorite Actress and the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series.
But the problem is that Mario Caesar should report to Rhea as a supporting actress, how could she be nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress——
"Fox wants to give Sophie Marceau a Best Supporting Actress nomination, and they and Paramount want "Braveheart" to dominate this year's Oscars." Malloy called anxiously, and he When speaking, they trembled unsteadily because of anger: "In order to reduce the competition, they finally reported you the heroine."
"What the hell, France hasn't even been nominated for an Oscar for a long time."
"It's because no French actor has been nominated for a while, so it is very likely that Sophie Marceau will be nominated this year to show political correctness." Malloy laughed angrily. So guaranteed.
Fox must have made this decision early on, but in order to get what they wanted, they pressed it until the end to reveal it to Malloy.
Rhea asked him cautiously: "Are these two nominations given to me to compensate me?"
"Oh, Rhea." When Malloy spoke, Rhea was imagining his expression, and his tone made her feel that Malloy's face must not look good.
His current demeanor is indeed not very elegant: "Have some confidence in yourself, okay? I don't care if this is compensation. Since you have been nominated, then this is your nomination for an award."
Thinking about him and Julie Anchar, Rhea reacted
Come over and comfort him carefully: "Even if the contract is signed, those big studios will backtrack, Matthew, let alone we haven't signed the contract yet."
He cursed several times in a row, "Damn! Bitch! Fuck!"
Rhea decided to pretend that she didn't hear anything, and Malloy quickly calmed down after scolding. He must have wanted to tell her immediately, so he was so excited because he didn't calm down.
"We went to the show, we made the show, and they made money at the box office." Malloy calmed down after being irritable, and his tone was more terrifying than before, "We can't let your tears flow in vain."
Rhea was afraid that he would be overwhelmed by anger, and quickly persuaded him: "I have to remind you, even if I have something to do with the two prisons in New York, I have no ability to redeem you from prison."
What Malloy replied to her on the phone was: "God, Rhea, don't be so naive, adults have adult solutions, don't think of me as a fool."
Rhea was still in shock after being hung up on the phone. Did her manager judge her childish after yelling at a minor?
Compared to this shock, she didn't even have much disappointment left that was destined to miss Oscar.
Getting an Oscar nomination for Best Actress in the midst of Casino, Death Row, Far From Las Vegas, Madison Bridge and Sense and Sensibility is a dream.
The author has something to say:
The application for the award is submitted after negotiation with the producer. There are some cases that are clearly negotiated but the result is different, but generally it is agreed with each other in advance.
Of course there are bugs, please bear with me_(:з」∠)
There are two more updates today, post them before [-]:[-]
Compared with the highest record of 1993 million set by this ace show with Michael Jackson in 6200, the viewership of 2500 million is nothing, even just the average weekly viewership of this show.

Laughing, Malloy suddenly asked her a question: "Why on earth did you want to play this role, Rhea?"
"You're not a role play fool, or a whimsical ignorant, I convinced you why you can't be Lolita, but you still want to play it, don't you?"
Rhea twitched the corner of her mouth: "I thought I said it once in "Oprah's Talk Show."
The version she said was of course revised based on the facts. After consultation with the crew, the final version was that Stephen Schiffer’s script moved her, and she wanted to use this role to warn girls to be wary of adults with evil intentions .
Malloy smiled helplessly, "Ken and I came up with that together, and I can tell you countless reasons to move you, come on, Rhea, just tell me, I'm just curious."
"Well, there's no particular reason." Rhea muttered, "I just want to play this role, I want to play Lolita, even if the script hasn't been changed, I want to play, she seduces old men but doesn't Shame on her, she's terribly precocious and surprisingly childish, she's trying to play Humbert to her own detriment."
"As an image, Lolita may not be beautiful, but as a character, she is good enough."
Restricted by the Chinese entertainment industry, she has never acted in such a role, so there are so many reasons why,
She just wants to act.
Unexpectedly by Rhea, Malloy laughed loudly: "This is much cuter than I thought." He looked at Rhea with a smile in his eyes, maybe there was some irony in his words Yes, but Malloy said it very sincerely.
Rhea rolled her eyes unappreciatively.
Her agent didn't care either: "It's time for us to start preparing the dresses. The nominations for the major awards will come out soon. "Lolita" will be released in the second half of the year. This is still beneficial to us. At least the judges will There are some deep impressions about this movie."
Rhea didn't quite understand Malloy's self-confidence. Although "Lolita" was indeed a success, there were many excellent movies this year. How could Malloy be sure that she would be included in the nomination list? So she I had to ask: "You seem to be very confident?"
Malloy replied firmly: "I believe in you."
In fact, Rhea's own confidence is not very high. She doesn't think she can't play the roles in other movies. It's just that the theme of "Lolita" is too small. The only political correctness is to aggravate the anti-pedophilia. Color, but this genre has never won the favor of the Oscars.
This year's awards are "Braveheart" and "Apollo 13". received many positive reviews.
Compared with these movies that are close to the main theme, "Lolita" is indeed too biased.
But Rhea soon learned why Malloy was so confident, because Julie Anchar gave him a call.
Malloy made a gesture to her to make her quiet, and then in front of her, a minor, he calmly made an appointment with her for the next meeting, which was at the Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles.
Rhea wanted to pretend that she didn't know what to do, but Malloy's overly calm and natural attitude still made her unable to resist asking, "So, you made an appointment at the hotel where you work?"
But his skills are much higher than Rhea's. Malloy smiled meaningfully at her: "When we are working, we can settle some private matters by the way, killing two birds with one stone."
His smile made Rhea a little creepy, and she couldn't help exclaiming: "Julie Anchar is going to be 40 years old!"
"You will also be 40 one day." Malloy in turn taught Rhea: "I don't even know, you still have age discrimination, Rhea, don't treat women like that."
so mean. "
Rhea stared at him: "Age is not a problem, the problem is that she is already married, this is the Matthew you told me, she has a husband and two children, the oldest one is not much younger than you!"
He sighed at her: "I'm very surprised, you are so mature and calm, but why you are always so serious in some inexplicable places, this is nothing in Hollywood."
Rhea didn't like Malloy's current attitude, and she didn't like the idea that the relationship in the entertainment industry was messy at all. "Is that an open marriage? Does Julie's husband know?"
"Rhea." Malloy stopped, "Okay, next time I'll pay attention in front of you."
She knew that arguing with her agent was not a wise thing now, it was a personal choice, so after hesitating a few times, she still kept her mouth shut, but before getting out of the car, Rhea still asked the question in her heart.
"Then if Andre Witter can make me the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress this year, would you suggest that I climb into his bed?"
This example was just Rhea's random thought, and Malloy had always suspected that Andri had ulterior motives, so she thought of Andri at this time.
After staring at her for a while, Malloy asked her back: "Then will you refuse?"
"No, I don't want to." Rhea replied quickly and firmly, "If one day I am going to die and someone uses this to threaten me to sleep with him, then I will definitely accept it, but I won't die if I don't win the prize , I don't want to accept."
Malloy knew what she liked, so he asked another question: "What if it's to get a role you want?"
"I don't want to." Rhea's answer still refused: "Creating a fake image, consuming childhood shadows, showing off stupidity and sexiness to the camera, in order to get a good script and a good role, I am willing to do all of these, but now the dominant The body is me, and I can't let this body be sold a second time, Matthew."
Not to mention that her own personality is a bit fake and high-minded, even for the dead Rhea Nolen, she can't do such a thing again, Jones Colt sold it once, and that can only be the only one once.
Of course, her moral character is not so supreme, and Rhea has done the miserable routine of selling herself, but there are some things that can be done, and some things can't be done, and she has set a bottom line for herself.
Malloy nodded: "I see."
Rhea was terrified that it wasn't Malloy who
Although she and Julie Anchar got together, in fact, there were signs of this before. What she was afraid of was that one day Malloy would take her to someone else's bed. Although they had been working together for a while, in order to prevent the future If something unpleasant happens, it's better to say something clearly.
"Okay then." He shrugged his shoulders, covering the overly heavy topic with half-truth and half-fake humor, "If Andri can really give you an Oscar statuette, don't you say he doesn't like women? , then I will try to see if I can climb into his bed myself."
He is really good at talking, Rhea sighed again, at least now she was disgusted by that scene, once interrupted, the serious atmosphere could not be maintained.
Seeing some anxiety on that face, Rhea suppressed other questions. In fact, she wanted to ask Julie Anchar what she promised to make him agree. He didn't seem to be attracted by Julie at all. attracted to.
But she is not qualified to say anything more. Malloy has not been forced or forced others for this kind of thing you like. Even if you are a friend, Rhea can't judge anything.
It is enough to explain the moral bottom line of both parties and confirm that they do not violate each other.
But when she got out of Malloy's car, Rhea's mentality was more complicated than before she got in the car. Can upset her.
She doesn't know if Malloy hooked up with Jolie because of her nomination, but it must have had something to do with it, and now it's not just about her, it's not like Rhea can change the project if she wants to Yes, every appearance of her is closely related to the whole team behind it.
In the final analysis, it is because their status is not enough and their ability is low that they cannot bypass such means.
Taking a deep breath, Rhea restrained those thoughts, and returned to the school with a quieter atmosphere from the applause and cheers under the spotlight, and then she had to go to Leo Mashaw, the director of Weber Middle School, to sell her vacation.
Rhea was ready to receive comments and strange looks, but unexpectedly, the reactions of teachers and students were very gentle. If it was in the public Queens High School, this kind of explosive news would definitely go viral, but in Weber School, Whatever people thought of her in private, on the surface there was just the right amount of sympathy and concern.
Her roommate, Jessica Lee, even hugged her and cried, complaining that Rhea was always silent. There is no doubt that she is now the man of the year in Weber Middle School.
.
Whether it's a star chaser or someone who doesn't like her high-profile attitude, her attitude is very friendly.
This proves that it was the right choice for her to go to this famous private school at any cost. The quality of the students here is much better. Lisa Karen, who is racially discriminatory, is an exception, and she was severely punished by the school.
The movie "Lolita" came to an end, and the North American box office miraculously reached 7000 million U.S. dollars. To 5000 million, which is much better than the expected [-] million US dollars.
Now Rhea not only has the box office miracle bonus of her screen debut, the praise of Kubrick, the legendary director who filmed the first version of "Lolita" and the appreciation of major film critics, but also the [-]th Century Fox film company. Be a backer.
Under the shadow of these auras, it seems that it is not too strange for her to be nominated for the People's Choice Award for Favorite Actress and the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series.
But the problem is that Mario Caesar should report to Rhea as a supporting actress, how could she be nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress——
"Fox wants to give Sophie Marceau a Best Supporting Actress nomination, and they and Paramount want "Braveheart" to dominate this year's Oscars." Malloy called anxiously, and he When speaking, they trembled unsteadily because of anger: "In order to reduce the competition, they finally reported you the heroine."
"What the hell, France hasn't even been nominated for an Oscar for a long time."
"It's because no French actor has been nominated for a while, so it is very likely that Sophie Marceau will be nominated this year to show political correctness." Malloy laughed angrily. So guaranteed.
Fox must have made this decision early on, but in order to get what they wanted, they pressed it until the end to reveal it to Malloy.
Rhea asked him cautiously: "Are these two nominations given to me to compensate me?"
"Oh, Rhea." When Malloy spoke, Rhea was imagining his expression, and his tone made her feel that Malloy's face must not look good.
His current demeanor is indeed not very elegant: "Have some confidence in yourself, okay? I don't care if this is compensation. Since you have been nominated, then this is your nomination for an award."
Thinking about him and Julie Anchar, Rhea reacted
Come over and comfort him carefully: "Even if the contract is signed, those big studios will backtrack, Matthew, let alone we haven't signed the contract yet."
He cursed several times in a row, "Damn! Bitch! Fuck!"
Rhea decided to pretend that she didn't hear anything, and Malloy quickly calmed down after scolding. He must have wanted to tell her immediately, so he was so excited because he didn't calm down.
"We went to the show, we made the show, and they made money at the box office." Malloy calmed down after being irritable, and his tone was more terrifying than before, "We can't let your tears flow in vain."
Rhea was afraid that he would be overwhelmed by anger, and quickly persuaded him: "I have to remind you, even if I have something to do with the two prisons in New York, I have no ability to redeem you from prison."
What Malloy replied to her on the phone was: "God, Rhea, don't be so naive, adults have adult solutions, don't think of me as a fool."
Rhea was still in shock after being hung up on the phone. Did her manager judge her childish after yelling at a minor?
Compared to this shock, she didn't even have much disappointment left that was destined to miss Oscar.
Getting an Oscar nomination for Best Actress in the midst of Casino, Death Row, Far From Las Vegas, Madison Bridge and Sense and Sensibility is a dream.
The author has something to say:
The application for the award is submitted after negotiation with the producer. There are some cases that are clearly negotiated but the result is different, but generally it is agreed with each other in advance.
Of course there are bugs, please bear with me_(:з」∠)
