[American Entertainment] Born to be passionate
Chapter 58 The big ship is about to set sail, he has to seize the opportunity
The boy was wearing a standard Eton school uniform, tuxedo, shirt, vest, leather shoes and trousers. He looked gentlemanly and extravagant. There was a small cape on his back, which meant that he was a recipient of the King's Scholarship.
But it is still difficult to connect him with the mature and restrained Tom Hiddleston in the impression.
At least for Edmundo it is.
He's worked with Hiddleston more than once, and the guy is literally his favorite (British) actor.
Hiddleston never complained, he enjoyed the process of making the film, he also enjoyed showing different interpretations of the same character in the same scene, and most of all, he was honest.
Compared with telling the actors how to act in person, Edmondo prefers to express in words, and most actors will say that they understand when he asks "Do you understand?", just like that It can make the director like them more, but once they walk into the camera, they immediately expose the fact that they didn't understand at all.
This greatly increases the difficulty of the director's work.
Hiddleston is different, he always asks very carefully, he will confirm with Edmundo repeatedly before walking into the camera, and when he does not understand how to perform, he will point it out directly, which sounds It seems to be a very small and simple thing, but Edmondo can guarantee that in his many years of directing career, few people can do this. would show him that they didn't really understand him.
But that was later, Hiddleston was 14 now, 15 years younger than when he knew him, and Edmundo, to be honest, didn't quite know how to relate to him at this time.
"Hi, Tom." Leonardo set an example, he waved his hand in a friendly greeting, "I heard that you were admitted to Eton College, that's amazing."
This saved Edmund a lot of trouble, he didn't say anything, and then waved to Hiddleston to show his friendliness.
"I'm just lucky." The teenager Hiddleston said modestly, and he handed over the clothes he brought to McQueen. "Eton College has a clear division of occupations. They hope to train more professional students. I just A little grade in drama, nothing in the whole school or even the grade."
"A small achievement is not enough to get you a King's Scholarship." Edmondo pointed to the cloak behind him and said, then in order not to embarrass the teenager, he dragged the topic to drama, "You said you are interested in drama interest, what about the future, what is your plan, plan to go to drama school and then enter this industry?"
Hiddleston stood up straight, and he shook his head slightly and replied: "I don't have a clear plan yet, but I do like acting. In fact, I am a member of the Eaton Drama Club now, and I am also a member of the stage play "The Number of Desire". Got a role in Streetcar."
"If you like acting, it's never too late to study systematically. You can even study for a graduate drama school after college." Leonardo couldn't help but suggest, "If your grades in school are not bad, Then don't give up too early, I don't want to hurt you, but the road to acting is very difficult, and it will never hurt to leave more options for yourself."
Edmondo couldn't provide professional advice. He was not on the same path as them, so he patted Leonardo on the shoulder and asked Hiddleston to sit down. The two could better discuss career planning or Talk about acting.
He went over to McQueen and Ford to see if there was anything that needed help.
"There's nothing to help, and your beautiful lips can't help me modify the drawings." McQueen didn't look up, obviously still resenting the embarrassment that Edmundo had just exposed, and then he quickly glanced at the situation on the other side of the sofa , was keenly aware of something, and then teased: "What's the matter, does a 14-year-old boy make you feel uncomfortable?"
Edmund raised his eyebrows, and Ford pinched his forearm lightly. This kind of joke can't be played casually.
"You also know he's underage, so you'd better pay attention, Alex." Edmondo crossed his arms on the table, "I'm avoiding him not because of that, but—"
He got stuck on this explanation.
Hell, he couldn't explain that he knew the future Hiddleston so talking to him right now didn't feel right.
Edmund took a deep breath.
"—He is very similar to a friend of mine from the past." He casually found a reason to prevaricate, and at the same time used the small gesture of flipping through the draft paper to cover up the fact that he was lying. Non-emotional lies have never been his specialty, "This a little complicated."
But at this moment, Edmondo's attention was attracted by the content on a certain draft paper.
"Hey, Alex, what's this?" He pulled out the piece of paper and spread it out. It turned out to be McQueen's iconic skull scarf pattern that will be popular in the fashion industry in the future. "It's so damn beautiful! When are you going to put it on?" It made it?"
McQueen glanced at the scratch paper.
"Oh, that," replied the designer grimly, "I'm not going to do it."
"What?" Edmundo frowned and expressed his confusion. He picked up the paper and shook it in front of McQueen's eyes. "It's very beautiful, why didn't you make it?"
"Because he thinks that thing doesn't fully express what he wants to express." Tom Ford answered for him. The design director drew a skirt on the paper. He slowly raised his head and shrugged at Edmondo. , "To be honest, I also like that pattern, but I can't convince him."
"Don't listen to his nonsense, I just didn't find the right material." McQueen made a simple ring ring, and then stuck a skull-shaped silver block on it for the first attempt, and then he looked at Edmondo, "I wish it was easier for people to see through all the flesh and blood, all that should cover the face and make the effort. I've tried cotton, linen, and—"
"Have you tried silk?"
McQueen, who was interrupted, looked at Edmundo with a strange look of fanaticism.
"Oh! I knew what I forgot, I was such an idiot!" He slapped his forehead and rushed out of the door, shouting at the same time: "It's silk, I forgot silk! God!"
Edmondo blinked at the direction McQueen rushed out, and then patted Ford's arm.
"He didn't think of silk, and neither did you?" he asked.
"Of course not." Ford smiled, with the pride of a successful prank, "I just want to see when he can remember, so that I have two points to laugh at him."
……
About half an hour later, McQueen hadn't returned to the studio, but Ford's boyfriend came over to pick him up first, and they left holding hands in a high-profile manner. This stimulated Leonardo, who had just finished a pleasant conversation with the British teenager, and he came over to buckle. Hold Edmondo's hand.
Edmondo didn't stop his rather naive comparison behavior, he patted the back of the other's hand, and then looked at Hiddleston.
"We're going to go out later, do you want to come together?" He sent out an invitation, hoping to get rid of the grudge against this 'shrunk version' future friend through getting along, "Don't worry, we will take good care of you."
The teenager got up and gave Edmondo a grateful smile, but then shook his head.
"I've also invited my classmates to play squash, maybe next time," he said. "If you can stay in London until next week, I think I can make some arrangements. The school is open next weekend, and I can invite you to my show. .”
"That would be great." Edmundo shook his hand. "See you next week, Tom."
After bidding farewell to the young Hiddleston, they also left McQueen's studio and found a restaurant on the side of the road for lunch. After lunch, Leonardo took Edmundo to the more remote Wardrobe Forest Park in London , has planned for this for a long time. According to him, this is the best environment and the most suitable atmosphere for playing tricks.
"So that's why you've been carrying a backpack mysteriously since morning." Edmondo smiled lightly and reached out to poke the backpack on the other's back, and there was the sound of bottles colliding inside, "It doesn't sound like that." Like my favorite lotion, which one do you have?"
Leonardo leaned over to kiss the corner of his mouth.
"Don't worry, it's all you like." He said, "That bottle is too big, I can only repack it into another one, that's not a small project, in order to repay me, you must cooperate with me today All safety|covers!"
Edmund raised an eyebrow.
But when he was about to say something to tease each other, a fast food kiosk appeared in front of them, and a girl with bright red hair was leaning sideways on the phone, frowning and looking a little annoyed.
The wind blew her hair, and the girl put her hands behind her ears, and Edmondo could see her face clearly.
"Kate?"
Leonardo was the first to call out the name that Edmondo was thinking of. The girl was none other than Kate Winslet who would board the ship to play Rose in the future.
Winslet, who heard the voice, turned her head, and the moment she saw Leonardo, her eyes turned from confusion to excitement.
"My God, I didn't expect you to come to London, Leo!" She rushed over, "Listen, boy, you have to promise Cameron, his movies are absolutely amazing, if you say no to him, you will regret it for the rest of your life ! You beat Tom Cruise, and if you choose to let it go at this point—oh, sorry, Mr. Moreira, I was in too much of a hurry to notice you."
Edmundo raised the corners of his mouth and shook his head, expressing that he didn't care.
And his heart is obviously not as peaceful as it seems on the surface. Kate Winslet, Cameron, Leonardo, movies, the answer obtained by combining these keywords is only "Titanic", and there is no other answer. Other possibilities.
Edmondo screamed in his heart that he had forgotten such an important thing! Although "Titanic" was a movie released in 1997, Cameron has actually been preparing for it since 93, and 95 happened to be when he chose a male and female starring role.
Most importantly, at the beginning of 95, Cameron used up the 1 million that Fox gave him, and when Fox sought cooperation from Paramount to keep the project, Paramount was lucky to take advantage of this wind and make a net profit of 3 million.
How could he let such a good opportunity slip away, especially after confirming the cooperation with Spielberg to run DreamWorks.
"Calm down, Kate, I'm sorry, but I really like "Boogie Nights" better than "Titanic." Leonardo scratched his hair and said, "Jack is really not a good choice—"
Edmondo: "I think you should take this role."
Leonardo and Kate stop to look at him together.
"This movie will be a big success. From a commercial point of view, I suggest you take this script. I know you prefer to challenge yourself with literary films, but my dear, money is also one of the criteria for judging an actor." Edmund Duo smiled and answered, and then he looked at Kate, "May I ask, did you hear any news that Fox is planning to transfer this project before you come back?"
Kate froze.
"No, I just auditioned," she replied, "but I did hear Director Cameron and his producers complain about the lack of funding."
Then there is still time.
Taking advantage of Leonardo's tangled efforts, Edmondo called Anderson and asked the other party to tell Spielberg and his partner David Geffen the news, emphasizing that this was from the "genius director". Edmundo very visionary idea'.
"I'll tell them." Anderson sounded weak, as if after a quarrel or something, he took a deep breath, "There is one more thing I think you should know, Rui Fan is coming back to the big screen, and in Before that, he put all the money he earned from the concert into your card."
After a pause, he continued to add: "Yes, Rui Fan asked me to act as his agent and signed a contract with New Line Films. The shooting will start in September and will be released at the end of next year. Maybe you want to know - it's called "Boogie Nights" , is a movie that fits his temperament very well, but I don't think it can achieve any commercial success."
Edmondo didn't know what to say, he took off the microphone in a daze, and then looked at Leonardo in a daze.
"Your favorite "Boogie Nights" has already found an actor." He said, "It's Rui Fan."
Leonardo was dumbfounded.
"WHAT?"
But it is still difficult to connect him with the mature and restrained Tom Hiddleston in the impression.
At least for Edmundo it is.
He's worked with Hiddleston more than once, and the guy is literally his favorite (British) actor.
