Exploiting Hollywood 1980
Chapter 352 Dreaming about Dirty Dancing Again
After seeing little Douglas off, Ronald took the script of "Dirty Dancing" out of the drawer, read it for a while, and then put it back again, repeating this process several times.
The dream sequence and dance scene in this movie are a level better than the other movie I shot, "Break Dancing".
For those dances in "Break Dance", the actors we hired were all top-notch. Boogaloo prawns, Sabado, and even "Hand Man" are all top-notch dancers individually.
But the men and women dancing in the warehouse on "Dirty Dancing" were not just about dancing.
In that scene, every move of the dance partners seemed to be flirting. The arms, legs, eyes, and even hats all conceal the love and teasing between lovers.
This kind of dance with hidden emotions can also bring back some memories of your high school graduation dance. Dim lights, passionate dance moves, sweat on the partner's body, mixed with the smell of cheap perfume...
Whenever Ronald closed his eyes, he could recall moments with certain female companions.
With the combination of music and dance, as well as the movement of lights and cameras, Ronald felt a synesthesia similar to that of Coleman University's senior brother, Jonathan Demme.
This is a very advanced directing technique.
Ronald has been in the industry for many years, and he has only done this in a few shots of aircraft carriers taking off and landing in "Top Gun" before and after sunrise in the early morning, to arouse the audience's sense of smell, touch, and taste.
This kind of shot will be deeply imprinted into the depths of the audience's thinking. It leaves a much deeper impression on the audience than a single picture or soundtrack.
Even years later, when they talk about such a movie, they may have forgotten the plot, protagonist, bad guys, and good guys, but in that scene, a scene that evokes memories will definitely stay in their hearts for a long time.
When they talk about that movie, they remember the smell of steel on the deck when they saw the movie, or the smell of cheap perfume under the dim lights of the warehouse.
This unforgettable shot is like a little bug crawling next to the spine, seducing Ronald's passion several times. He really wanted to make this movie.
"Forget it, I still have a family and a girlfriend. If I lose everything, they will also be affected."
Ronald put the script in his briefcase and drove home.
Helen Slater has joined the cast of "Secrets of Success\
,"Go put out the heroine's problems caused by substance abuse.
Through Schwarzenegger's recommendation, Diane Lane went to the crew of "The Running Man" released by Samsung to audition for the heroine.
Through CAA's relationship, Ronald found Tristar to say hello. Now Samsung, the two joint venture shareholders, HBO and CBS, have withdrawn, leaving only Columbia, the bare-bones commander.
Not bothering two owners, Columbia's own distribution company also began to gradually merge into Samsung.
Just like when MGM acquired United Artists, United Artists' distribution staff also faced the same problem. One studio does not need two distribution companies.
Recommended by the popular director and the leading actor of the movie, Diane quickly replaced the original heroine and starred in a heroine who did not have many roles.
The screenwriter was also caught and revised the script based on Diane's background. The heroine is no longer a Latina girl, but an orthodox American brunette.
In American stereotypes, brunettes are beautiful and smart, but they are far from blondes in terms of sexiness. Diane just met the requirements, and the producers were actually very satisfied.
“Is the president of Samsung also Jewish?”
Ronald still couldn't let go of "Dirty Dancing", so he asked Niceta one more question.
"The new president, Stephen Cannell, has a very Jewish name," Niceta answered.
"Why don't you know?"
"He used to work in television. Samsung recently merged with his production company, and its business began to involve cable TV networks, so I'm not sure. However, his resume shows that he had a smooth sailing after entering the entertainment industry, and it is very likely that he is Jewish. .”
"Hmph..." Ronald touched his ears. These Jews are very smart. They know that if they openly say that they are Jewish, they will arouse the dissatisfaction of other ethnic groups, especially actors who make up the largest number of people in Hollywood.
Except for Jews like Barbra Streisand, who has a big nose that is difficult to hide, other entertainment industry employees generally do not talk openly about their ethnicity and religious beliefs.
…
"Thank you..." Diane got the heroine. After her agent informed her, she came to Ronald immediately. She hugged Ronald tightly when she entered the door and refused to let go.
"There are a lot of action scenes. Remember, if there is danger, let a substitute take over. In addition, although it is a science fiction film, I feel that the script still has a lot of room for development, so you can act freely."
Ronald finally found a movie for Diane that neither sang nor danced, which could give full play to Diane's acting skills.
"Um……"
Diane even looked at Ronald with a little admiration, and wanted to hear more advice from Ronnie on her acting skills.
"Why are you looking at me? You know more about acting than me..." Ronald pinched Diane's nose.
"Hehehe", Diane reacted, "Thank you anyway. Due to the increase in the exchange rate, I have made an extra sum of money from advertising in Japan. I can also play some roles in movies, so I am very satisfied. .”
Ronald looked at Diane until she lowered her head and smiled in embarrassment.
Diane's youthful rebellious period gradually passed, and she fell from a teenage actor who was one step closer to becoming a star to a little actor who couldn't get a script. After encountering a multi-level marketing scam again, my whole temperament gradually changed, and I began to look a bit like a traditional American woman.
However, that shy feeling still appeared frequently. The more Ronald looked at her, the more he felt that she was made of an actress. Coppola liked to use Diane, and he may have seen this potential.
Looking at Diane lying on the bed with a blushing face, Ronald went to the kitchen, beat a few eggs, fried toast with egg liquid and butter, and made omelettes with the rest, served with Coca-Cola, and the two of them Have a meal.
Diane's long-term depression and emotional tension were relieved, and she fell asleep in bed soon after eating.
Ronald didn't call her, but lay next to her, smelling the fragrance of her hair, and fell asleep together.
"If this scene is made into a movie, it will also arouse other people's memories of smelling hair." Ronald still regrets the "Dirty Dancing" incident.
…
"The Blu-ray version is from the South. It's exactly the same as the original. It's produced in a factory. You can see there's even a commemorative book inside."
In his dream, Ronald heard a voice selling to him.
"Is it real or fake? Is it the same as the original? Do you have behind-the-scenes, interviews, and commentary tracks?"
"If you don't believe it, I'll show it to you. They're all there."
Ronald found himself in a small, cramped shop, surrounded by various small plastic boxes with covers of various movies on the walls.
As if possessed by his past life, Ronald discovered that the VHS tapes sold here were not the current VHS tapes. The small box was much thinner than the tapes.
"Come and see." The voice opened the box and inserted something that looked like a CD music record into the machine.
A TV set on the wall flashed and a picture appeared.
It was none other than Patrick Thwaites, standing behind Jennifer Grey. Jennifer was wearing a dress, her head was back, leaning on Sweets' shoulder, and she moved all the way behind her, just touching Sweets' face.
"Dirty Dancing", a title composed of red word art, appeared from below them.
"The night we met, I knew I needed you so much
If I had the chance, I would never let you leave.”
Another nice black-style interlude sounded.
"This is definitely not a videotape. It seems that you can also choose scenes. It seems to be more advanced than what I dreamed about before." Ronald thought in the dream that the picture on the TV was very clear, and it was clearer than the movie played on the computer in the dream. Much clearer.
"So you don't say you love me?
I will make you proud of me”
The music continued, and another line of words appeared under the title "Dirty Dancing."
"20th Anniversary Edition".
When Ronald saw this line of writing, he immediately became energetic.
It seems that this movie will never fail, and someone will release a commemorative version for the 20th anniversary.
"Look at the dance at the end, it's much clearer on Blu-ray."
Ronald didn't know what blue light was. The voice pressed the remote control and selected the last segment of the movie.
A red light lit up, and the protagonist, the baby, was found by the hero at the dinner party on the last day of vacation, and he pulled her onto the stage.
"It's obviously red light."
Ronald looked at the red background lighting in the film and the highlight that hit the person's face, which was also red.
The skin of the two protagonists was also flushed by this kind of lighting, as if their hearts were beating faster, their faces were red as they danced with excitement.
This scene inexplicably makes people's hearts beat faster.
The two danced Dirty Dancing alone on stage. Ronald felt it was like the Mambo in Latin dance, with many knee movements and a very rhythmic feel.
The two of them danced happily, and Johnny, the male protagonist, jumped to the climax, a big jump in ballet, jumping from the stage to the audience.
"Oh oh..." the audience shouted in the movie.
Patrick Thwaites caught a volley, spun 720 degrees, and danced solo.
His dance partners, dressed in their own clothes, came in neatly dancing from outside.
Johnny was at the front, and the dancers formed a square formation, marched toward the stage, and invited the baby to come down.
A fat girl stood next to Johnny played by Patrick Swayze. Although she was very fat, she danced very gracefully and rhythmically, and her hands kept touching from her neck to the ends of her hair.
Ronald felt that this actress, who would never think of her as sexy, actually developed some feminine charm under the music and dance.
The baby, played by Jennifer Gray, saw Johnny's invitation and nodded excitedly. She was picked up from the stage by the dancers, started running quickly, and jumped close to Johnny.
The baby flew up, arms spread wide, flying forward like an angel.
Johnny stabilized his lower body, raised his hands, caught the baby, and lifted her up with all his strength.
"Oh oh..." all the dancers and the audience began to shout.
"Can you catch me like this?" A fat girl asked her boyfriend in the movie store.
"But...it's okay..."
My boyfriend is not strong, even a little thin.
"Let's give it a try"
As the fat girl said this, she imitated the posture of the baby on the TV and ran towards her boyfriend with a big jump.
"Oops..." The boyfriend realized that he had made a miscalculation and could not lift the fat girl with both hands.
"Hey, hey, don't come towards me." Ronald, who was standing nearby, saw the boy coming toward him crookedly.
"Ah..." The fat girl couldn't hold on any longer. Her boyfriend slipped out of her hands, and she dodged and bumped into Ronald.
Ronald was hit by her, and his muscles were quite painful.
"Hmph, you want to eat my tofu, why are you blocking me here?" The fat girl raised her hand and wanted to hit him.
"Oops..." Ronald was rubbing the place where he was hit, and when he heard this sentence, he cursed angrily. Seeing the slap coming towards him, it was estimated that it would be very painful if it hit him, so Ronald quickly dodged it.
"Ronnie, Ronnie, what's wrong with you?
Diane, who was sleeping with Ronald, was awakened by Ronald's movement. Turned on the switch of the bedside lamp.
"I, I had a nightmare." Ronald looked at Diane in his arms, thinking about the fat girl in his dream... a cold sweat broke out.
"Ah, why are you sweating so much?" Diane quickly went to get a towel.
"I'm fine..."
In my dream, at least twenty years have passed, and this movie has already been released in its 20th anniversary edition. From what the boss said, that edition is still of very good quality.
Suddenly, Ronald felt confident.
What are you afraid of? Anyway, this movie will be a hit and it will be a hit.
"Do you want to go see a doctor?" Diane looked at Ronald's frightened look. Was it because he was under too much mental stress and anxiety?
"It's okay, it's okay. I thought too much during the day and dreamed about filming a movie at night." Ronald drank some water and controlled his mood.
