Exploiting Hollywood 1980

Chapter 174 The Golden Globe Awards is a big party

"Steven, this person's opinion agrees with yours. He also said that a bicycle racing scene should be added." Melissa Matheson, the screenwriter of the tentative title ". Alien" picked up a script evaluation opinion and said, Said to director Spielberg.

Spielberg is busy with the post-editing of his new film "The Lost Ark of the Covenant." The film was shot in Tunisia and Hawaii for nearly 4 months. It was just completed at the end of last year and has entered post-production.

George Lucas recommended Harrison Ford to star as Dr. Indiana Jones. The heroine is played by Karen Allen, replacing Spielberg's ex-girlfriend Amy Irving.

"Really? I didn't expect that he thought the same as me. What other opinions does he have?" Spielberg asked many friends to read the first draft of ET's script. Today, he took time to discuss all the feedback with screenwriter Melissa.

"He also said that he wanted to delete a bad boy's character..."

"But such bad things do exist among children. I have personal experience."

"It is difficult for a child's imagination to imagine that a peer of the same age is a bad guy who specializes in doing bad things to good people..." This is what the original words said. Screenwriter Melissa read out comments written by Ronald.

"Well, do you think so too? Sometimes the facts that people believe are more important than the facts." Spielberg heard this and said decisively, "Okay, delete that bad boy from the second draft."

"What's his name?...Ronald Lee, he's a bit insightful." Spielberg turned back to his assistant Kathleen Kennedy and told him, "If you have a chance, contact him and see if he has any good scripts."

He then went back to discuss the second draft of the script with screenwriter Melissa, completely ignoring the invitation to tonight's Golden Globes dinner.

In the eyes of Hollywood celebrities like Spielberg, the Golden Globe Awards are similar to the Pheasant Awards. But in the eyes of young actors who have just entered the industry, or handsome men and beauties who have not yet entered the industry and want to be actors, it is nothing more than a shortcut to get into the entertainment news.

"How do I look?" Natasha Kinski wore a yellow dress, admired her figure in front of the mirror, and then turned back to ask her neighbor and best friend Demi Moore.

"You look great." Demi Moore looked at this expensive dress with some taste.

"Don't be upset, Demi. It's Freddie Moore's loss that he won't divorce you." Natasha Kinski's "Tess" was released in the United States and received praise from many film critics. .

Kinski's long hair in "Tess" had been chopped off;

My current hairstyle is an ear-length bob. This hairstyle, named after the Chinese movie star Kwan Chia-sien, was popular in the West in the 1960s.

Natasha Kinski is not wearing this hairstyle for the retro trend, but because she will join the cast early next month to shoot director Coppola's movie "One from the Heart" and play the second female lead , an acrobat. This hairstyle is a requirement for the role.

This marks that this European actress is officially accepted by Hollywood. Now Natasha Kinski is very proud, focusing all her attention on her makeup and clothing. Today she was nominated for Best Actress (Drama), and Best Newcomer of the Year (Actress ) two awards.

Naturally, Kinski didn't notice that her friend Demi Moore was in a low mood, and not just because she broke up with her boyfriend.

Demi Moore failed in forced marriage. The divorce proceedings between her boyfriend Freddie Moore and his wife have not yet been completed. This time, in order to stimulate her boyfriend, she seemed to have gone too far in pretending to break up. Freddy Moore did not give in immediately as usual. After leaving her boyfriend, Demi Moore now has neither savings nor a house to live in.

Demi Moore is targeting the Golden Globes tonight. The dinner, broadcast live by NBC, took place at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Hollywood. In front of the awards hall is a round table where the crews are seated, and there is some space at the back. There will be many handsome men and beautiful women standing there, and the TV station will not chase them away.

Sometimes the camera would sweep over and if she was lucky, she would be able to capture a one-second shot. This exposure would be enough for her to take on some advertising modeling business and earn some money. Not to mention if you are lucky enough to be spotted by a popular male star... Of course, these standing tickets are also highly competitive, and someone must bring them to the dinner party.

Demi Moore also took out her best black dress and put it on. This was her last chance. If she couldn't sneak in and meet some celebrities in the entertainment industry, she could only agree to "qui" adult magazine and take a set of "artistic photos" "Yes.

This magazine has always been famous for its large scale. Although it does not have the reputation of "Playboy", it is very pleasant to pay for it. Enough to stay in Hollywood for another half a year.

Natasha Kinski took Demi Moore with her and the car arrived at the entrance of the Hilton Hotel. There is no red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards, and the only photo session for reporters is at the hotel lobby door.

Demi Moore, who couldn't steal the spotlight from Kinski, got out of the car early, walked to the hotel in the night breeze with her skirt and high heels in hand, and waited for Kinski to arrive at the hotel door.

Although the temperature on the West Coast was not as cold as New York at the end of January, Demi, who was wearing an off-the-shoulder skirt, still felt a little cold and ran quickly towards the warm hotel lobby.

"I'm sorry, miss, may I ask for your invitation?"

"Me, I came with Natasha Kinski."

"I'm sorry, she hasn't arrived yet."

There was some traffic jam during the photo session, and Kinski’s car was not lined up at the door yet. Demi Moore touched her shoulder and wanted to go into an air-conditioned room. Now she could only stand aside, hoping that her friend would arrive soon.

"Sir, your invitation?... Please come in, Mr. Ronald Lee, your seat is..."

Demi Moore suddenly discovered that the man in front of her in a dress and bow tie was none other than Ronald, the photographer who took her audition photos more than a year ago.

A little shocked that Ronald could get the Golden Globe invitation, Demi knew that the opportunity was rare and said hello, "Ronald! It's me, Demi. Demi Moore."

"Demi?" Ronald recognized her. His first audition photo was taken in Los Angeles. He relied on her photos to advertise and his business was booming.

"Are you coming to the Golden Globes dinner too? How about Freddie?" Ronald hugged her.

Demi Moore took the opportunity to hold Ronald's arm and entered the hotel together, "He should be doing well. I broke up with him. Freddie didn't want to divorce his wife."

"Sorry to hear the bad news."

Ronald saw Demi Moore dressed up and thought she had entered the film and television industry and was a member of the nominated cast like him today.

Entering the awards hall, Ronald quickly found his round table. Just next to the second to last row. He hugged Gore, the songwriter who had arrived, and introduced him to Demi. The roundtable was empty; director Alan Parker, screenwriter, and other actors were not nominated for awards and did not attend.

There were many empty tables with some drinks, cocktails, and some snacks on them. The Golden Globe Awards dinner was more like a big party with food and drinks, except that NBC cameras were filming it.

Demi Moore took advantage of the situation and sat down in an empty seat. While listening to Ronald chat with Gore, she learned that Ronald was just a songwriter who had been nominated for a Golden Globe. Her boyfriend Freddy also asked her to sign and write lyrics on several songs on the album, but unfortunately the sales were poor and she didn't make much money.

So Demi began to turn her head left and right like a radar to lock in a more suitable conversation partner.

Ronald was a little surprised at first why Demi didn't go to her place. Seeing her start to look for a new goal, I felt a little enlightened. He turned his head and glanced at the beauties behind the railing. Demi must be here for a social opportunity like them.

When the beauties saw Ronald looking over, they immediately began to greet him. Some of them even pulled their collars and fired electricity at him. Ronald smiled and turned back to chat with Gore.

After a while, producer da Silva and star and singer Irene Cara also arrived, and it was another round of greetings with old friends.

Demi Moore saw that the "famous" producer was also here. She originally planned to take the initiative elsewhere, but she decided not to leave. The favor of one producer can win over ten unknown actors.

"Hi, Ronald, you're here, nice to see you here. I heard your script was picked up by Universal? Any chance you can write one for us?"

A familiar voice of greeting in English with a strong Israeli accent came from behind. Ronald looked back and saw that it was the two brothers Minahan Golan and Yoram from Cannon Pictures.

"Hi, Minahan, Yoram. I heard that you signed a distribution contract with MGM?" Ronald greeted them. It seems that the two of them didn't get along well, and they were arranged last at the Golden Globe Awards. a row.

"Yes, we are looking for resources and stars to shoot big productions. Do you have other scripts that can be shot? Let's talk about it?"

The two simply came over from their own table in the last row and sat at this table.

Ronald nodded and apologized to his companions. The Israeli brother's loud voice attracted a lot of attention from other people. He pulled his armchair back slightly and began chatting with Minahan.

It turns out that although Cannon signed a distribution contract with MGM, MGM's own domestic distribution still needs to rely on United Artists' channels. Their "Apple" did not receive many resources and was stuffed into back-end theaters.

Coupled with the low quality of the film, the film that Minahan had high hopes for only received less than 100,000 at the box office and was sadly withdrawn after a week.

"You know, Ronald, we are very willing to make some big productions in Hollywood, but people here are very cautious. We don't have a successful movie, and it is difficult to talk about cooperation. You are already a successful playwright. If you have a new work, don't Forget about us, we'll give you a better price than Colombia." Minahan was writing a blank check.

"Not yet, I'm currently writing a script for Universal." Ronald declined.

"Oh, what's the theme?"

"It is adapted from a youth drama, telling the story of high school students bidding farewell to innocence and moving towards maturity."

"Farewell innocence, farewell innocence..." Minahan and Yoram looked at each other, as if they remembered something.

"How about a remake of 'Lemonade'?" Yoram whispered.

"Lemonade" was a blockbuster movie the two brothers shot in Israel. With the proceeds from the movie, they were able to acquire the Cannon Company.

This is a teen exploitation film about a boy in school. His crush and her boyfriend accidentally get pregnant. The boy takes the initiative to help his crush and pays for the surgery with money from working in a pizza shop. In the end, the crush got back together with her boyfriend and dumped him again.

"Keep your voice down, this movie conflicts with the subject matter of Ronald's movie. Let's not let him know."

"Lemonade is a custom in Israel. It's a metaphor for those spare boyfriends. We have to change its name in America to sell it," Yoram said.

"High school boyfriend?" Minahan suggested.

"High school virgin?" Yoram said.

"The last high school virgin?"

"The last American virgin?"

"Okay, this is good." Minahan couldn't help but chuckle.

Demi Moore, who was sitting next to her, had brilliant eyes. Unexpectedly, Ronald is not only a composer, but also a screenwriter. It seemed that he had a good relationship with the two fat guys opposite, who looked like producers. He just sat on the chair like a nail and stopped moving.

At this time, the guests gradually arrived, and a TV station staff member came to the stage and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, our Golden Globe Awards dinner broadcast will begin soon. Please take your seats..."
