[American Entertainment] Bright life

"Atonement" was selected as the film for the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival, which was indeed somewhat unexpected. In view of the fact that the director of "Atonement" Joe White is only 34 years old this year, he is the youngest director of the film for the opening ceremony of the Venice Film Festival.

But speaking of it, this matter has nothing to do with Grace. Even though "Atonement" is Grace's first movie, after all, she doesn't have many roles in this movie, and the filming schedule of "Mamma Mia" has already been set. The filming will start in late August, which happens to be the time for the Venice Film Festival, and Grace will not go to the Venice Film Festival with the crew.

In "Enchanted", Grace is the absolute protagonist.

The budget of this movie produced and distributed by Disney is not too low, with a budget of 500 million US dollars. Of course, this is the production cost of the movie and does not include post-production promotion costs.However, Disney also attaches great importance to this movie, which is reflected in the post-stage publicity. Who made Disney rich and rich, and the post-stage publicity expenses are sufficient--as for who is waving a check as the backing behind this, only Disney knows ——They bought a billboard in Times Square in Manhattan as soon as they made the move, and used it to play the trailer they made specially for Enchanted.

The reason for choosing Times Square in Manhattan is because in the movie, Giselle, played by Grace, and Prince Edward, who followed Giselle and jumped off the "Wishing Fountain", came to the real world through the underground passage here.

Of course, the flow of people in Times Square is also valued by Disney.

It’s just that something went wrong this time. Since the release of the trailer, Disney’s official website has attracted more fans every day than the day before to pay attention to the release news of “Enchanted” and other peripheral information, but the feedback from Times Square Not so "optimistic".

This is not to say that the publicity did not achieve the expected effect, it just exceeded the expectation——

Strictly speaking, the trailer of "Enchanted" does not involve the plot. It is more like a MV. It is the MV of a song "That's How You Know" that Grace sang in the movie. This MV is another It was filmed, with Grace as the protagonist, and the other supporting roles are small animals produced by computer post-production, a very joyous chorus.

I have to say that the trailer was very well done. Grace gave a very Giselle-like performance in it, as well as singing skills after systematic training.So much so that when it was first launched, many passers-by thought it was a new singer, and some people asked about it on the Internet, and asked where to buy records. After an oolong, they realized that it was Disney's new singer. A trailer for a film that will be released in the second half of this year.

I also said that it is a very joyful chorus, the kind that people can't help but sing along with, coupled with Grace's stage appeal that seems to be open, it really caused this kind of chorus in Thames Square. Drive the effect.

As I said before, Disney chose Thames Square because it also valued its traffic flow. If you don’t pay attention here, you may have some traffic accidents, just like in "Enchanted", Giselle first arrived in the real world At that time, I didn't understand the traffic rules, which caused a series of accidents where several cars collided on the road where cars came and went.

In this regard, Disney said that it really just wants to promote its own movies.

Therefore, in order not to increase the already high traffic accident rate in Manhattan, it had to reluctantly choose other ways of publicity.Of course, this matter still needs to be "recycled". The local media reported this "strange event", and used this event on the Internet to arouse the curiosity of the majority of movie fans. It can only be said that Disney has never been in this regard. Everything has been successful: the official website has seen a surge in visits, and the "Enchanted" trailer has been downloaded a million times in just three days. The lyrics and music are written by the famous composer Alan Menken, and Grace sings "That's How You Know" became a hit.

Warming up, or almost arousing the curiosity of movie fans, Disney organized a press conference. The director of "Enchanted" Kevin Lima attended the press conference. At the reception, the background of the creation of "Enchanted" and the theme of the film were described. In addition, it was also expected that "Enchanted" could become a series of films in the future, as if it was released last month. Like the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series in its hot run.

——"Enchanted" has not yet been released, and the box office situation is unknown. It is too early to say that it will become a series of films, and the plan for the second or even the third one is too early, isn't it?But this is not uncommon in Hollywood. Obviously, this is the producer's strong confidence in the film.

When the reporter asked Kevin Lima about the heroine in "Enchanted" who is so mysterious that there are not many personal information available, Kevin Lima suddenly laughed: "I think you have no Check the direction. To be honest, I was very surprised when I first found out about her (Grace)'s other identity. I still don't understand why she came to act in the movie, but after watching her performance I am really grateful, she is a very talented actress, and it is very, very pleasant to work with her."

Huh?Is there another secret?

The all-powerful reporters haven't started yet, and the netizens who followed the press conference on the Internet have started to brainstorm ideas, but the truth is always so unexpected:——Now when I watch "That's How You Know", I feel embarrassing up.

——The upstairs seems to know some inside information, so catch it.

——Catch a truth-lord alive.

——It can’t be said that I’m the only one who knows the truth. In fact, I just wandered over from Dr. Grace Green’s official fan website. Believe me, the forum there is really blown up.

——Sorry, the speed of hand is not as fast as the speed of thinking, I'd better give you a link to Dr. Grace Green's fan website, [Link], and we have now confirmed that we will sing "That's How You Know" and also starred in it Grace Green, who created a Disney movie with subtle content such as princesses, princes and true love, is the same person, the same person, and the same person as the Dr. Green known to us book fans. Important things are said three times.

……

——Clicked on the link and read it, but now it is silent.

——I didn't know what to say at once. When I Googled 'actor Grace Green' earlier, I saw a link with the same name as her in Wikipedia. I glanced at it and seemed to say what the one with the same name was Mathematician and psychologist, I really didn't think much at the time, how could I have thought that they are really the same person!

—I also went to Google.

——I also want to know why she went to acting now.

—Probably bored.

——Truth, you come!

——Your Majesty, come here!

——You come here!

—…You are enough, Mr. Truth, that is what I think, it is inseparable from my experience of going to Oxford University as an exchange three years ago.My Department of Mathematics received my bachelor’s degree last year. I was in the first year of research at that time. At that time, the original professor fell ill, so I hired another person to teach us. That’s right, I got a doctorate in mathematics at the age of 17, and I wrote the first book. Dr. Green's only book on mathematics.

—the only one?Is it an overrated genius?

——No, she later switched to psychology, wrote four more books related to psychology, and was on the New York Times bestseller list.By the way, she also took additional philosophy and chemistry, and now has a bachelor's degree in both.To get back to the point, it was said that she switched from mathematics to psychology as if it was because psychology was more challenging.Indeed, she is highly accomplished in the study of human beings, with a serious face.

——It smells like an accident turning into a story.

——Upstairs is always so sharp.

——Mr. Truth’s summary is very incisive, serious face +1

—— Serious face +2

……

——Serious face + social security number

——Sit in a row, a favorite story is coming.

"Why didn't I know you still have a certified book fan website?" Sterling is exhausted now. Looking at the current trend of public opinion on the Internet, it seems that he doesn't need any guidance from his agent. Grace's book fans, or being She's been a scourge, no matter what, it's like mushrooms springing up to promote Grace's 'great achievements'. "You don't know, don't you?"

"I should know?" Grace asked seriously.

Sterling lowered his head and rolled his eyes: "How do I know if you should know, I'm just an ordinary goldfish, remember?" Grace didn't use this meme since he learned it from Grace, but he learned it by himself Use it for your own entertainment.

"Oh."

Sterling didn't want to get to know his clients anymore, he got down to business, and updated Grace, who had just returned from Disney dubbing, on the progress of her other two films, "The crew of "Atonement" came to ask about your itinerary , they seem to want you to go to the Venice Film Festival, but I said no for you, you should be filming "Mamma Mia" in Greece by then. And "Mamma Mia" movie version has added a veteran movie star , Pierce Brosnan."

Speaking of this, Sterling looked up at his wonderful client before continuing, "He is the fifth actor to play Bond in the 007 series, and he has appeared in four 007 series movies in total." Sterling on '007' Emphasis on the syllable, this series is famous all over the world, but the British national treasure film series, the British royal family will attend the premiere of the 007 movie, if his client doesn’t know this, then he really has nothing to say, and then... Continue on She has been crammed.

Grace lowered her eyes, thinking back to the past, both Mommy and Daddy knew about McCoff's work. Mommy had no curiosity about McCoff's work, but Daddy was always curious about how the eldest son lived like a 007 movie As a matter of life, Mycroft always rolled his eyes at this time, but they never questioned Daddy's logic, especially in front of Mommy.

"I know."

Grace lifted her eyelids and smirked, "That's a, uh, chic collection."

Sterling automatically equates her mention of 'chic' with 'stupid', and he just wants to know which movie is not... chic in Grace's opinion, but speaking of 007, MGM has recently There are new actions, and a new 007 series movie is about to be filmed.A thought flashed through Sterling's mind: If his client annoyed him again, he would encourage her to shoot this unique series of movies she said.

Enough about work related things, let’s talk about things outside of work, “My dear client, I think you need a house in Hollywood, with your current income, I mean your royalties and nothing else What a mess, you can afford a house, even a villa in Beverly Hills."

Sterling remembered what he classified as a 'mess', but it was actually an unattainable wealth, and the torches that burned the local tyrants were lit again in his heart. Thinking of this, he said angrily: " Or should I ask first, you don't have a property there, do you? What?"

Grace withdrew her bright eyes, which would make people look like they were being seen through, and said "properly" again: "You have already asked Angus, haven't you?"

"No, I didn't." Sterling was determined not to encourage Grace's arrogance, so he resolutely denied it, but it seemed useless.After a moment of silence, Sterling surrendered, "You can be proud again, okay? When you are finished, we can go to see the house, and I will make an appointment for you as a real estate agent. No, let Emily Go with you, forget it, I'll go with you."

Although he just went to Beverly Hills to look at a house, Sterling is really not sure what unexpected accidents will happen, such as going to the British Museum for an appointment and asking himself to Scotland Yard. Sure.
