Hollywood Rhapsody

Sarah was a little surprised when she saw Matt Damon in sportswear in the morning, and she was even more surprised when she took the book handed by him. She couldn't help raising her eyebrows: ""Elegy for My Beloved Wife"? It seems that You had a great chat with Michael yesterday!"

"Yeah, it's really nice, I heard he's planning to talk you into getting a movie based on the book, and he sounded confident at the time, so I guess, maybe you'd like to see the book?" Matt Damon had a big grin, not looking like a big dog wagging his tail waiting for praise, but like a top student who handed in the paper and was sure he would get an A.

"..." When Sarah heard "full confidence", the corner of Sarah's mouth twitched imperceptibly—the old fox always has various ways to achieve his goals!

Although I know that Michael used the aggressive method yesterday, but this method is indeed effective. When I heard that Leonardo went to the hospital to visit Kate Winslet, who had just given birth to her daughter, Sarah was indeed a little blocked.So, well, she's going to snatch the role, although it's still unknown if she can successfully snatch it from the English rose, but you have to try to know, right?Moreover, the actors in this movie are also old actors, and there is no doubt that she can learn a lot during the filming process, so she is willing to be motivated by Michael to succeed, but, in this way, she will spend the next semester or summer vacation The watch is about to be rearranged. I have to say hello to the teacher in advance when I go to school today. I wonder if I will be scolded.

"It seems that you were indeed convinced by Michael." Seeing Sarah's reaction, Matt Damon guessed the result, and he couldn't help showing a sympathetic look, "You are already so busy, and you still have to make time for filming , take advantage of the winter vacation or summer vacation? Dear little Sarah, I can't imagine how your life will go on in the future!"

Little Sarah?This title is really... Sarah rolled her eyes in her heart, but after thinking about it, the Matt Damon in front of her was 30 years old, ten years older than her. For a person of the same age, but insists on putting a "small" label on his forehead, it feels like he is being taken advantage of inexplicably!But for the sake of getting up to deliver books to her in the cold weather, Sarah raised the corners of her lips and raised the book in her hand: "Since you know that I will be very busy, you still sent this book to me." In front of you, dear Mr. Matt Damon, you seem to be a little duplicity~~"

"No, of course I didn't mean anything, I just guessed that if you accepted the adapted movie, it means that you are still interested in the story itself, then the original book might be useful to you. Coincidentally, I happen to have a copy on hand... This is also considered an investment." Is it all right?" Matt Damon smiled calmly, and even had a tendency to deepen his smile, because he knew that his intentions had been noticed by the little girl in front of him.His eyes seem to be able to speak at this moment, they know each other well, his answer is not the real purpose of delivering books in the cold weather, but the words in his eyes are the words that are really hidden in the bottom of his heart.

Sarah is definitely not a slow-witted idiot, let alone a young girl in love, so she didn't run away, and she didn't turn blushing to show a shy look. She just bent her eyebrows and looked at the man in front of her, as if examining him, It also seems to be hesitating whether to give the other party a further chance.

After a long time, she flicked the cover of the memoir with her fingers, and said with a light smile: "Actually, if you really want to match what you like, you shouldn't give me this book, but you should use your Oscar-winning screenwriter talent , write a script for me, you should talk to Michael again, he will tell you, compared to this literary film, I look forward to the horror film more, the very scary kind, it is best to scare the children. Sleeping, the paparazzi no longer dare to gather around my door..."

When Sarah said these words, her accent had changed. She had considered taking the role in the film "Life Together" before, so she did take time to practice British pronunciation. At this time, she has a little bit of taste. The different accent is as a The necessary skills of an actor, she is looking forward to Matt Damon's reaction.

The sudden change made Matt Damon a little stunned for a moment. He reacted for a second before realizing that maybe the little girl in front of him was deliberately making things difficult for him, but he couldn't help being excited, as if he was about to receive a high school student. The challenger of the difficult task is quite high-spirited.

He snapped his fingers, speaking with a fluent British accent, and kissed Sarah in a very gentlemanly way: "Dear Miss Stern... I really don't know what to say." Applause for your standard British pronunciation, or should you marvel at your unique taste in film selection. Horror movies? Are you serious? Are you sure? Maybe besides writing scripts, I can actually play with you, but horror movies seem to be It doesn't match your temperament a little bit."

"But I really have a soft spot for horror themes. If you don't believe me, you can call Michael and ask me what kind of request I made to him. The female version of "The Silence of the Lambs" should be very interesting. Mr. Hannibal is so elegant!" Sarah said to Matt Damon in front of her with a slightly eerie smile, but her tone was extremely gentle, "Have you heard of it? We are all psychology students Psychological distortion! Dear Mr. Damon, are you sure you want to play with me?"

On a November morning, a small wind blew into his collar. Matt Damon was caught off guard by Sarah's sudden expression. When he woke up, Sarah had already slipped into the collar with a chuckle. The car swaggered away.

"What a naughty girl!" Matt Damon stood alone for a long while looking at the ass of the car that was getting farther and farther away before sighing in a low voice with a smile. He found that Sarah in his eyes was getting more and more He was alive, and such an interesting girl was more and more attractive to him.

And a naughty girl who was rushing to class was laughing to herself while driving, and Matt Damon's cute expression of being surprised at the end really entertained her.In fact, there is not a single lie in what she said, but the same words will have completely different flavors when told to different people. Now facing Matt Damon, it is obvious that an arrogant noble lady is deliberately trying to find a hard-to-get admirer. I hope today's incident will not make Matt Damon think that she is really a schizophrenia patient!

Schizophrenia patients?No, of course not, Matt Damon was definitely not frightened away by Sarah, who would go on a show at the slightest disagreement. Instead, he murmured to himself with great interest: "The demand is really high, and I want "The Silence of the Lambs", So challenging...”

While thinking about it, he planned to continue running in the morning, but his trouser legs were suddenly pulled, which really frightened him, and when he lowered his head to see, it turned out to be a cute soft little boy standing beside his legs, She raised her head and looked at him solemnly.Matt Damon naturally recognized this little baby—the little prince of Sarah's family, cute little Noah!

He immediately bent down and greeted the little guy with a smile, but he didn't expect the little guy to frown, and said to him solemnly and seriously like an adult: "Are you chasing my mother? Tell you, my mother is not easy to chase." , Do you know that house? The uncle in that house is much prettier than you, but he hasn't caught up with my mother either!"

Matt Damon couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, and at the same time turned his attention to the house that Noah pointed to. It seemed to be the man named Ian from Sarah's company. Matt Damon still remembered that he and Sarah revisited When I was on campus, I saw Ian holding the little guy in front of me, and the two seemed to have a good relationship.

"Who told you these words? How do you know I'm pursuing you, Mom?" Matt Damon coaxed the little guy very patiently.

The little guy wrinkled his nose, raised his head and corrected him very proudly and solemnly: "Don't treat me like a child, I know so many things! I know, my mother is very beautiful, and I also know, a lot Everyone likes her. Aunt Ada once said that there is no man in the world who doesn't like my mother, are you a man? So, you like my mother! Well, that's right, that's it! You are a man!"

While the little guy was talking, he nodded his head in agreement, as if it was a very simple reasoning, but Matt Damon almost couldn't help laughing, this kid is really cute Oh, and... Ida actually said that all the men in the world like Sarah?If adults don't pay attention to what they say, aren't they afraid of teaching this cute little guy badly?However, he thought about it again, Sarah is indeed a one-in-a-million girl, probably not many men would hate her, she has irresistible beauty, but also has amazing intelligence, she has a face like many in Hollywood. My son's actress is different.

"So little guy, since so many people like your mother, how can you catch her? What is your mother's favorite?" Matt Damon felt that the child in front of him was more and more cute, and couldn't help teasing a few more words Well, this kid seems to be as smart as her mother, maybe he can really extract some useful information from the kid.Sarah has been on the headlines countless times, and there are countless reports about her, but there is very little personal information. Speaking of it, he really doesn't know what Sarah likes. Apart from reading, working, and making movies, it is more personal. What about your preferences?Looking back on the previous reports, Sarah's personal preference can't be Leonardo DiCaprio!

"Why should I tell you? I am my mother's little knight, and I want to protect my mother from you people taking her away!" The little guy was still very alert, but Matt Damon seemed to be very vigilant about coaxing the child. With ease, he coaxed out the little guy's answer in a few sentences, but the answer also made him dumbfounded.

I only heard the little guy's childish and tender voice, but he said proudly: "Mom naturally likes me the most. Mom said that I am the biggest baby in the world!"

"..." Matt Damon touched the top of the little guy's hair, really dumbfounded, what the little baby said made sense!

Had a brief conversation with the teacher. Sarah, who was in class at this time, was a little surprised to receive a text message from Dawn, the PR manager. After all, she is currently living in seclusion. Being a good baby in Cambridge every day will not cause any public relations. Crisis, so shouldn't Dawn's current focus be on Leonardo?

"Miss Sarah Stern, please answer this question..." Just as Sarah was about to reply to the text message, the teacher on the podium suddenly called her name.

The phone kept vibrating, and Sarah, who was left alone after class, had an embarrassed smile on her face. She immediately turned off the phone, pressing the power off button as hard as it could break the keyboard, and the professor in front of her looked very pale. Finally, after staring at Sarah for two seconds, he walked out of the classroom and said slowly, "You are a smart student, and you also work hard. I can see your hard work. Even though you have a lot of other work to do, you still have to pay for it." The assignments that come up have never disappointed me, but..."

"But..." Sarah has been waiting for this "but" for a long time, she knows that the previous compliments are just foreplay, and today there is destined to be a heavyweight "but" waiting for her.

"Since you are in this school, and as a student, I hope you will concentrate on completing your studies in at least four years." The professor shook his head regretfully as he spoke, and his tone was even a little lost, "When I saw you The paper that was published in the journal before I enrolled, I knew I was going to have a student who would surprise me, but now, your enthusiasm for psychology seems to have been exhausted that summer, I heard that your The computer graphics project even attracted many students from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology next door to participate...and on my registration form for this vacation project, although there are many students, I didn't see...the name I most wanted to see."

Sarah lowered her head in shame. Even though she answered the teacher's question correctly in class before, her perfunctory handling of this class cannot be ignored. Under the wise watch of the teacher, her perfunctory has almost nowhere to hide.That's why, now the other party finally couldn't help but beat her: "I saw your interview, you admitted that you are a greedy girl, but do you remember what I said when you entered school? I hope you can be more focused. Girl, just like you shared with me the experience of trying to figure out the characters in "Boys Don't Cry". Anything can only be surpassed by enough concentration and dedication to create a classic. This is the case in movies, studies, and life... Dear Sarah, I don’t mean anything by saying this today. You are excellent. This is a fact that almost the whole world knows. No one can deny your achievements, but as the teacher who brought you into this school, I hope You don’t want to lose yourself in the complicated temptations, learn to focus, just like you once said in an interview with "People", learn to do subtraction."

Sarah lowered her head, these words were so familiar, she remembered the first conversation between the teacher and her when she just walked into this school, when she was awarded by the film critic Pauline Pauline for "Requiem for a Dream". Kyle’s appreciation, the idea of ​​“Katharine Hepburn’s successor” was not long after the incident of Leonardo’s crazy movie fans caused an uproar. The teacher sat on the bench outside the teaching building and reminded her to learn to do subtraction, while she I also said the same thing in an interview with "People" - because the schedule is too full, I am extremely tired, so I have to learn to do subtraction and slow down my pace a little.

then……

She is still busy, breaking it into eight petals in one minute. After deciding to give up "Life Together", because of Leon's relationship, she can't control her impulsiveness and competitiveness. Is this right?She looked at the old gentleman in front of her, and couldn't help but speak, knowing exactly what suggestions she might receive——

"Do what you really love. If you love movies more now, maybe you can really learn from Mr. Matt Damon, choose to drop out of school and devote yourself to a career in Hollywood. There are really many successful people who drop out of Harvard. At least, William Hearst, who dropped out of school in 1885, became a famous newspaper tycoon in the last century. Bill Gates, who dropped out of school in 1975, created Microsoft in the last century. You may be the next one, maybe in the future Harvard's history will also record such a thing-Sarah Stern, who dropped out of school in 2000, became the greatest actress of the 21st century...Of course, if you are reluctant to part with your current studies, then temporarily reject those tempting scripts Is it really that difficult? You have mastered the basic courses in the freshman year, so I don’t force it, but after entering the sophomore year, the professional courses are getting deeper and deeper, and you have to make a choice!”

Sarah opened her mouth, is it that difficult to choose?She loves acting but also cherishes the current learning experience. Who will force her to grasp everything at the same time?Busy yourself like this?Originally, she had already made a decision, but because of Michael's agitation, and because of a small emotion in her heart, she picked up the script that she had left behind. Repeating this way is definitely not her style, at least not the behavior she used to have style……

Speaking of which, this is the first time that she was picked up by a teacher and beaten for the first time in more than 30 years in her two lives. Because of being adopted, she has worked harder than others since she was a child, and she is more greedy than others in her heart. She wants to grab everything. She can think of everything, but she has always been able to make the most rational choice, because the lack of emotion has created this rationality.And in this life, it seems that because of the appearance of Leonardo, her emotional world is becoming more and more exciting, but it also affects her judgment.Once people are mixed with too strong emotions, it is difficult to maintain the same calmness as before, and she is trying to find the balance between these two points, just like a newborn toddler, but she believes there will always be One day she can walk steadily and run...

The teacher patted Sarah on the shoulder, leaving her to sit alone on the bench and think slowly, and she stared at the fallen leaves at her feet for a long time...

It was already very cold in Boston in November. Sarah sat on the bench as if she had turned into a statue unknowingly, motionless and cold. A sudden warmth came from her neck, and she felt like an ice sculpture had been shattered, her body trembled slightly, and she regained her senses.The fingers subconsciously touched the source of warmth between the necks, and the empty eyes regained their focus, and they were full of questioning pupils in front of them.

"It's so cool, how long have you been in a daze here?" Matt Damon squatted down in front of the bench, touched Sarah's hand on her knee very naturally, and then kept the posture covering the back of the hand, looking up The head smiled and asked the girl who was still in a trance in front of him softly.

"Why... are you here?" Sarah blinked, and finally regained her consciousness. She slightly lowered her head and looked at the man squatting in front of her, completely unaware of when he came.

"I... cough cough... I was thinking that this morning's book can't be given away for free, at least I have to ask you to treat me to a meal, so..." Matt Damon smiled, and stretched out his other hand, He held Sarah's cold little hands in his palms and covered them, "So I came to the school to try my luck to find you, and then I saw a silly girl here motionless in the cold, and I even saw a squirrel Wandering by your side, I am probably as curious as I am when there is such a beautiful statue in the school."

"Have you been here for a long time?" Sarah shrank her hands subconsciously, but failed, and the big hands covering her were indeed very warm, which made her a little reluctant.

"About 5 minutes? Maybe longer. I wanted to wait for you to recover, but I was afraid that you would really become an ice sculpture if you continued, so I untied the scarf for you..." Matt Damon raised his head slightly, smiling There was a little regret in the gentleness, "It's a pity that you came back to your senses too early, I was hesitating whether I could kiss you awake..."

The warmth spread all over her body along her fingers, and Sarah pursed her lips unconsciously.
