Exploitation Hollywood 1980
Chapter 413: The Oscar competition is ahead of schedule
Richard quickly returned the call, to those associations of minorities in Los Angeles, because Ronald had promised to give a tribute to the extra in "Other People's Money" who had tragically passed away because of... Daydream Movie or
Showed respect.
Of course, what may be more important is that he also donated a sum of money to that organization through Elizabeth Taylor's charitable foundation and designated it for their use.
This time we came to demonstrate in front of the theater because someone also paid for them to come and protest. After calling and coordinating, these people quickly put down their flags and stopped protesting.
The money offered by the other party was not too much, so they just finished the work and asked people to take a few photos of people raising flags in protest. It was considered worthy of the money.
Afterwards, the two leaders of the protest came upstairs to the Chinese restaurant and accepted Ronald's invitation to have a chat.
Both of them are minority-oriented people, and because this orientation is associated with the latest disease, they basically use this platform to fight for the elimination of discrimination against minorities.
A man named Larry Kramer is a Hollywood screenwriter and Broadway playwright. He also wrote a romance film "Women in Love" that was nominated for an Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay. It is considered Ronald's
Peers.
The other one is Peter Stanley, a Wall Street investment banker who once reached the VP level at JPMorgan Chase. He is also a successful person.
But because of this disease, the two of them devoted themselves wholeheartedly to ACT UP, an organization that fights for patients' rights, and gave up their great career prospects.
The former commander-in-chief did not take this disease seriously, and now it is becoming more and more difficult to deal with. Fu Qi, the director of another agency that should be in charge of this matter, the Institute of Allergy, will only give interviews to demonstrate the so-called "scientific
Literacy", there is no effective action to combat...
Nowadays, AZT, the only effective drug against diseases, has been set at a high price by the drug company Burroughs Wellcome. Many people have no money to take the medicine and have to die miserably. The main job of ACT UP now is to appeal to society not to
Discriminate against them, coupled with calls for research into new drugs and lower drug prices.
Especially this Peter Stanley, a Wall Street banker, he will not be short of money to buy medicine. But he will go to every protest and has been arrested ten times. Because his working experience on Wall Street is relatively
He knows his stuff, and the protests he made made the drug manufacturers very uncomfortable.
Burroughs Wellcome had to donate $1 million to his designated virology institute and reduce the price of AZT by 20%.
Ronald had great respect for such an idealist. He personally picked up a shrimp dumpling for him and handed it to him.
"Woooo..."
Unexpectedly, Peter Stanley actually cried, "I didn't expect, I didn't expect that I would see such equal respect from a Hollywood director. My brother Jess... woo hoo... JPMorgan Chase Securities
General manager of the department, I can also see the hesitation in his behavior."
Ronald was also very emotional. He didn't expect that behind these radicals, there was also inner pain.
"You don't seem to be afraid..." Larry Kramer is considered an insider. Looking at Ronald's behavior, you can tell that this is not a famous celebrity who showed up at Elizabeth Taylor's charity auction and raised his hand.
But really have a concept of equality for these people.
"Why should I be afraid? I can't shake hands and have a meal...Besides, I like girls..."
"No matter what, we accept your kindness. People like us have rules and regulations and cannot reveal the names of anonymous donors. However, the person who came to trouble you this time has a good background." Peter Stanley wiped his hands.
Eyes, ate the shrimp dumplings, and then said to Ronald.
"I know, Ovitz... some Jews who have nothing to do will find trouble with this movie for more than a day or two..."
"I can only say that the second half of your sentence is right, but the first half is wrong..." Peter Stanley winked at Ronald.
"I...Fuxk...actually still have one?", Ronald was surprised, "Who wants to target me?, Oh, you can't say so, can you..."
"I can only give you a little hint, it's not aimed at you..."
"It's not aimed at me, is it aimed at other people in the crew?"
"Think about it for yourself, be especially careful with those people..." Larry Kramer pointed to a small group across the street who were still protesting after their ACT UP ended.
…
"I want to see what else you can do?" Ronald sent away the two idealists and sneered as he looked at the remaining small group of protesters.
"We're going to meet Jodie Foster. Where's Jodie?"
After the main force left, the group of people took out new banners from their bags and waited for the photographers to replace them with new film rolls.
"This is not a premiere, why is Judy here?" Ronald was confused. Is it aimed at the former actress?
When the photojournalist changed the film and started taking photos again, this group of people suddenly pulled the banner open and started shouting their slogans.
"Judy, Judy, come out of your closet..."
"Pfft...cough cough cough..."
Ronald was shocked. The black tea he drank in his mouth suddenly choked in his trachea, and he couldn't stop coughing. Richard, who came later, hurriedly patted him on the back.
"Who are these people? Are they here to support or oppose Jodie Foster?"
"Proud Boys..."
Richard told Ronald the news he had just learned.
These people all belong to a loose coalition of minority-oriented protest groups called Pride Action. Rather than protesting Jodie Foster, they come to support her—but in a radical way.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Different from the public’s view of these people, they are very proud of their own orientation. They think it is nothing great, but something that they should be proud of.
behavior, so support everyone like them to let the secret out of the closet - or come out for short.
So their thinking is exactly the opposite of that of the main protesters. Rumors about Jodie Foster's orientation seem to have become more and more intense after she starred in The Silence of the Lambs. This also allowed these proud boys to find a very
Good target.
As a minority group, there is nothing to be ashamed of and you should stand up proudly...
"Judy, tell the world your secret..."
Ronald quickly asked Richard to call Foster's agent. Wasn't this setting her on fire? He also called Jodie Foster himself.
"Judy, you can mobilize all the public relations resources from Michael Gray and come up with a plan as soon as possible. We will fully support you..."
"Okay, I get it. I'm hiding at home now. It happens to be the premiere in London. I can go and avoid the limelight..." Jodie Foster has experienced strong winds and waves, and she is now wearing it on her face.
A pair of big sunglasses, ready to sneak out of the back door in disguise.
…
"Is Jodie Foster just not responding?" Diane, who had returned home, asked Ronald after hearing what happened.
"Then what should we do? She is very experienced. Last time the former commander-in-chief was assassinated, she also handled it in this way..."
"But if that's the case, then she won't be able to take off this hat..." Diane felt sympathy for Foster's treatment as a fellow actress, but on the other hand, she also had a trace of sympathy.
The gloating of fellow actresses.
"Then what should we do? She really likes girls..." Ronald frowned. If he came out to deny it, he would be lying blatantly. The tolerance for this in America is very low. It would be better to be beaten to death without saying a word.
A good deal.
"Are the rumors true?" Diane touched her nose. She was a little confused about such rumors. But it was a good thing...
Jodie Foster was still waiting for Jodie Foster at the airport. It was suspected that the staff of the ticket agency leaked her itinerary.
This made Foster unreasonable and avoid talking about the rumors about himself at the airport. Instead, he refuted the media's intrusion into the privacy of his personal life.
"This is the best. It won't cause any trouble, and it will also increase some publicity for the movie out of thin air..."
Ronald saw the news on TV about Jodie Foster angrily denounced reporters. This talented girl from Yale really had her own tricks. When the boss was assassinated, she was severely harassed by the news media.
Later, she used this trump card of America's personal privacy being inviolable, and published a public article in the newspaper to fight back against the harassment by the media, and won the support of the general public.
This has also become her personal trump card to a certain extent. The media is afraid of bringing up the past and being regarded as a bad person who forced actors.
This move is her exclusive weapon, and it is only effective if she uses it. Other actresses have no support from the public and will be sprayed to death by the unscrupulous media.
However, the media can't criticize him, but it can't stop them from reporting on the sight of the Pride Action protesters, who often speak in unison to the large "Silence of the Lambs" posters on the outer walls of the cinema.
"Judy, Judy, when are you coming out?"
There is nothing Ronald can do about this small group that is contrary to public perception. They always come out to change the focus, making the movie audience even more distracted.
To be honest, Ronald doesn't know whether Jodie Foster's "popularity by people everywhere" is a good thing or a bad thing, and whether it has a positive or negative impact on the movie's box office.
This group of people who act proudly rely solely on their own enthusiasm. They are also loosely affiliated across the country. They don't have anyone to talk to. Even if Ronald wants to talk to someone, there is no one who can represent them as a whole.
Even if he reached an agreement with Pride Action in the Los Angeles area, people in New York or Chicago would not care at all and continue to do it.
They seem to find a pleasure in this appeal to Jodie Foster, showing off the evil that has long been discriminated against by society: You see, even Hollywood stars are just like us... and she has not yet
We are brave and proud and dare not admit it!
The organization is loose, has no core people, and relies entirely on enthusiasm. There is no weakness this time. Unlike those of ACT UP, donating money can effectively stop them.
In this way, this very creative protest intensified. Jodie Foster did not dare to show up, which made them even more unscrupulous. Some people came to demonstrate in front of her house. However, because they did not register, they were on private property.
Arrested by LAPD for protesting.
…
"I think supporting equal rights for women and minorities is a good thing. There is no need to be ashamed of it. I have always publicly supported things I think are right, including Emily's List..."
"Good guy, I finally jumped out..."
Ronald watched the TV and talked freely, and the actress Susan Sarandon, the actress of Jodie Foster who was not honest enough, finally understood who was secretly supporting the protests.
"Louis, Louis, you are really the talkative one. You look at Salma and don't speak..."
What Ronald was talking about was the name of the character in the movie "Thelma and Louise" by this far-left actress.
Susan Sarandon plays the role of barmaid Louise in the movie, who likes to talk nonsense by nature, and her co-star who plays another heroine, housewife Salma, is another star actress Geena Davis.
Emily's List, as Susan Sarandon calls it, is an organization that aims to bring more female donkeys into important positions in the political arena. Their purpose is to "correct" the complete inequality between men and women among legislators, politicians, and men.
There has always been a lot of speculation about the supporters behind this phenomenon...
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! The plot of "Thelma and Louise" directed by Ridley Scott is quite ambiguous. The two women have a deep relationship, and Salma leaves
Husband, Louis abandoned her boyfriend, and the two met JD, a small liar on the road. In the end, because he defrauded them of all their money, they robbed a convenience store. Finally, surrounded by police, they stepped on the accelerator and rushed towards the cliff.
This movie has a strong tendency. Men are not reliable, only friendship between women is reliable. This kind of cleverly hinted friendship between women is exactly the same as Jodie Foster's situation in reality.
Match.
The reviews of "Thelma and Louise" are great. Many film critics like this kind of movie full of metaphors very much. They say that the two heroines have the qualifications to be nominated for Oscars.
However, the movie's box office performance was not very good. "The Silence of the Lambs", which sparked a second wave of movie viewing last week because of the real-life version of Buffalo Bill, had a death crossover with "Thelma and Louise" in the box office rankings.
"The Silence of the Lambs", which was released for 21 weeks, returned to the top ten from 13th place. And "Thelma and Louise", which was only released for eight weeks, was kicked out of the top ten.
The producer and distributor of "The Last Day" is MGM, whose financial situation is similar to that of Orion. It failed at the box office and could not spend extra money for marketing, so the female star had to go into battle herself...
The timing of the release of both films was not right, and every effort was made to delay the release date until after September to have a better chance of winning the Oscar nomination battle.
This also involves the competition for the Best Actress Oscar, which is the most fiercely competitive category among all the statuettes. After most female stars win the award, their acceptance speeches are the most outrageous.
Unexpectedly, this year's Oscar competition started so early.
However, God is not as good as God. Soon, this free opportunity to appear in the media will no longer be useful. Because a bigger event, just like the previous Gulf War, took up all the media's time.
