Hollywood Director 1992
#66 - Beautiful director
The person who came was named Sofia Coppola.
The daughter of Francis Ford Coppola, the director of "The Godfather" series, the cousin of Nicolas Cage, and also the director of the movie "Lost in Translation" that would make Scarlett Johansson a big star in the future.
Sofia Coppola is 21 years old this year, one year older than Link, and used to be an actress.
When director Coppola was filming the first "Godfather" movie, Sofia was born and played a baby being baptized at the end of "The Godfather".
In 1989, when filming "The Godfather 3", Sofia Coppola was 18 years old and played Mary, the daughter of the new Godfather, in "The Godfather 3".
She practically grew up with the "Godfather" series and is also a well-known second-generation star in Hollywood.
"Director Link, Monica has mentioned you several times, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Sofia Coppola came to the booth and looked Link up and down with her bright eyes.
"Miss Coppola, it's also a pleasure to meet you."
Link shook hands with Sofia, and Monica pulled Sofia to sit on the fabric sofa opposite, and called the waiter to order coffee.
"Link, guess how we met?"
Monica smiled.
"On the set of "Bram Stoker's Dracula"?"
"No, earlier than that. In 1989, I signed with Elite Model Management to work as a model and came to Paris to develop my career. I met Sofia when I participated in a Chanel fashion show. She was Karl Lagerfeld's assistant, the artistic director of Chanel, at the time."
Monica explained.
"Just helping answer the phone."
Sofia Coppola shrugged.
Sofia is of Italian descent and knows some Italian. She met Monica, who came from Italy, at a Chanel fashion show in Paris, and took the initiative to talk to her. Over time, they became acquaintances.
The reason why Sofia Coppola went to Paris during that time was very simple.
After the release of "The Godfather 3" in '89, she won the Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Newcomer and Worst Supporting Actress for her terrible acting skills.
Many media outlets criticized her acting as terrible and the biggest failure in the "Godfather" series.
Sofia's career suffered a major blow, and her development in Hollywood was not smooth, so she went to Paris to study design.
After working as an assistant designer for more than a year, she was persuaded by her mother to return to the United States to develop her career. Currently, she is studying painting and photography at the California Institute of the Arts and is a professional photographer.
Monica's role in "Bram Stoker's Dracula" was also recommended by Sofia.
The two have a fairly close relationship.
"Director Link, I heard that you and Monica used to live in the same apartment building?"
Sofia Coppola looked at him and asked.
"Yes, in the youth apartment on Bird Street, she lived downstairs and I lived upstairs."
"So what is your relationship now?"
"What do you think?"
"I'm not sure. I talked to Monica before, and she likes the kind of tall, handsome, and very individual guys, not someone like you."
"Oh? What am I lacking?"
Link smiled.
"Sofia, you don't understand Link. He is a great man. Not only is he tall, handsome, and individual, but he is also very charming. He is also very talented. You know this without me saying it. Link meets all my expectations for a partner."
Monica Bellucci interjected to ease the atmosphere, seeing that the state of the two people's conversation was not very harmonious.
"Tall and handsome can barely be considered, but I don't agree with the individual and charming part. I've seen his TV interviews. On the surface, he is gentle and refined, like a gentleman.
As far as I know, this type of person is roughly divided into two types. One type is truly gentle and refined, whether at home or in public. This type of person lacks vitality and passion, and living with them for a long time will be very boring.
The other type is gentle and refined on the surface, but has a very bad personality in private, is irritable, alcoholic, and domestically violent. You don't need me to tell you what will happen if you live with this type of person.
Director Link, may I ask, which type of person are you?"
Sofia Coppola stirred her coffee with a silver spoon, asking with a half-smile.
"Miss Coppola, do you like to add milk when you drink coffee?"
Link pointed to the glass milk bottle on the coffee table and asked.
"I don't like it!"
Sofia Coppola frowned and looked at him in confusion.
"I like it, and Monica likes it too. I heard that people who don't like to add milk to their coffee have a more sharp personality. When chatting, they like to find problems in things that don't have problems and argue with the person they are chatting with, using this method to defeat their opponent.
The reason for this personality is that this type of person lacks the right to speak and listeners within the family or their personal social circle. In order to fight for the right to speak, they are used to using this radical method to provoke controversy in order to attract the attention of others."
"What do you mean by this? Do you think I am the kind of unreasonable woman?"
Sofia Coppola's voice became sharp.
"No, just chatting casually, please don't get too excited."
Link smiled lightly and raised his coffee cup as a gesture.
"Sofia, you told me you wanted to meet the genius director Link, so I introduced him to you. Why are you arguing again after meeting?"
Monica Bellucci tugged at her, her expression slightly helpless.
"No arguing! I just asked him what kind of person he is. He didn't answer me directly, but instead said that I am irritable, have a radical personality, and like to make trouble out of nothing? Do you think I'm irritable?!"
"You can see for yourself!"
Monica took out a makeup mirror and shone it on her face.
In the mirror, her Italian-style oval face was covered with excited blushes, and her black eyebrows were almost standing up, in a posture ready to argue with someone.
Sofia waved her hand to push it away, took a few deep breaths, and a stiff smile appeared on her face.
"Director Link, I'm sorry, I was too excited. I shouldn't have spoken so loudly. Now let's go back to the previous topic. There are two types of people with gentle personalities. Which type are you? Please answer my question directly."
"Miss Coppola, do you drink coffee with milk?"
Link asked in a gentle voice.
"You!"
Sophia narrowed her eyes, staring at him, her breathing becoming rapid, her hands clenching into fists under the table.
"What I mean is that coffee, like people, represents different personalities depending on how it's mixed. You like coffee without milk, believing that this is the best flavor.
And I like it with milk, Monica likes it too. You can't treat those who like milk in their coffee as heretics just because of personal preferences. That kind of thinking is narrow-minded.
The best coffee in the world isn't chosen by some people, but rather the one that suits us best after trying many different flavors.
You ask me what kind of gentle and refined person I am? Does that question need an answer?
No, all that matters is that Monica thinks my personality is good and enjoys spending time with me. What does it matter if I'm a violent drunk or a man with no passion in private?
One man's poison is another man's honey, sweet as can be. I think that's not hard to understand."
Link swirled the coffee in his cup, the aroma of the coffee in the air becoming even richer and more mellow.
Listening to his words, Sophia's emotions gradually calmed down. She glanced at him in surprise and turned to Monica, saying, "You must never win when you argue with him."
"We never argue."
Monica smiled slightly, taking Link's hand across the table.
"Alright, Director Link, I apologize to you again. I shouldn't have asked that question."
No mistakes, one song, one shot, one inside, one capacity, one at a time to see!
"It's okay. I heard you're studying photography?"
"Yes, for over a year."
"Are you planning to become a director in the future?"
"No, I just take some photos I like. I'm going to be a designer."
Sophia stirred her coffee, blinking her eyes.
Link nodded. After changing the subject, he didn't continue to press her. He picked up the magazine on the table and flipped through it.
Sophia and Monica chatted across from him, talking about makeup, movies, and recent gossip.
Schwarzenegger is suspected of having an affair with actress Goldie Hawn; Little Queen Mariah Carey got drunk at a nightclub and danced wildly in the street; Kiefer Sutherland solicited a prostitute and had a dispute with his girlfriend Julia Roberts; Clinton announced his candidacy, etc.
After chatting for a while, they talked about him.
"Director Link, there have been a lot of negative comments about you in the media recently. I heard that your new movie is about to be released. Aren't you worried that there will be too many negative comments, the box office will be too poor, and it will affect your title of 'genius director'?"
Sophia asked with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
"Sophia, you said you wouldn't argue with Link, why are you starting again?"
Monica covered her forehead.
"I don't mean to argue. I just had questions in my mind after seeing these news reports. Director Link, can I ask?"
"Not worried."
"Why?"
"My movie is very good. If you're interested in the premiere, you can come and see it."
"Okay, I will definitely come."
Sophia snorted lightly. If the movie is too bad at the premiere, she will definitely return all the anger she suffered today to Link and let him know the consequences of annoying her.
"Hey, Sophia, are you here for coffee too?"
Three gorgeously dressed men and women walked over.
All three are big stars.
A-list actress Michelle Pfeiffer, one of the most beautiful actresses of the 80s, with representative works "Scarface", "Dangerous Liaisons", and the recently released "Batman Returns".
The second is Dustin Hoffman, a Hollywood A-list star, who won the Oscar for Best Actor in 1990 for "Rain Man".
The third is Andy Garcia, who played the male lead 'Vincent Corleone' in "The Godfather 3".
"Hey, three big stars, hello."
Sophia Coppola greeted the three of them familiarly.
"Sophia, I heard from your mother that you are studying to be a director? When can we see your movie?"
"No, I'm studying photography, just taking some random things."
When Sophia answered Mi's question, she glanced at Link secretly. Just now, Link asked her if she was going to be a director, and she flatly denied it. Now, Michelle Pfeiffer relayed her mother's words, which almost exposed her.
"Sophia, we had a great collaboration in The Godfather crew. Would you consider acting again? I received a new script, and there is a role that is very suitable for you."
Andy Garcia smiled gently.
"No, I have no interest in acting at all."
"Okay. Hello, Director Link, it's a pleasure to meet you here."
Andy Garcia stepped forward and shook hands to greet him.
"Mr. Garcia, hello!"
Link shook hands with Garcia.
Dustin Hoffman and Michelle Pfeiffer didn't seem to have the idea of getting to know him. After greeting Sophia, the three walked to the coffee table at the corner.
"Link, will your movie be released soon? Then you are in danger. Dustin and Andy's new movie 'Hero Without a Name' has already been scheduled. If your movies are released together, hum, the result may not be very good."
Sophia Coppola smiled, revealing an expression of preparing to watch a good show.
"Will it?"
Link smiled indifferently.
Seeing his still calm expression, Sophia Coppola clenched her fists again under the table.
If possible, she really wanted to punch this guy, who was one year younger than her but was crowned with the title of 'genius director', in the face and tell him not to be so smug.
But this guy has such a good temper that no matter how you provoke him, he doesn't get angry. It's hard to find a chance to fight with such a person.
Sophia secretly decided that after Link's new movie is released, if the box office results are too bad, she must find an opportunity to ridicule him in front of him and vent her anger.
Thank you for your support, add one more update, thank you.
