Chapter 464

As usual, the nominees for the 50th Golden Globe Awards were announced on December 19. Although most people expected Bosworth Pictures to take the biggest limelight, they were still shocked when the list was released. Basically, the three films produced by Bosworth Pictures took all the nominations except for the comedy and musical films and the special awards!

Best Movie, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor and Actress … Even "Scented Women" and "Howard Manor" were nominated for Best Movie at the same time. Some people thought that if he had made a comedy film or a foreign language film, it would also have been nominated. This "he" referred to the co-director and producer of the three films, Adrian Kewell, who was known as the genius director!

This was definitely not an exaggeration. Not to mention his previous films, just the three films released this year were enough to dazzle people's eyes. "Pulp Fiction," which won the Palme d 'Or and earned 100 million dollars at the box office in North America; "Scented Women," which gave Al Pacino a great performance and changed the impression that he could only make cult-style films; and "Howard Manor," which left the British speechless.

In particular, this niche film had actually earned 30 million dollars at the box office in North America, and was currently advancing toward 40 million. The media even exclaimed that even a film that was obviously losing money could make a lot of money as long as it was produced by him! If these three films were produced by three different directors in the same year, or by the same director in different years, it would not be a big deal. But now, they were produced by the same director in the same year … Frankly speaking, this had never happened in Hollywood before.

Therefore, it was very normal to receive so many Golden Globe nominations, and it was also very normal to receive such a high evaluation. It was just that people needed time to digest this reality. After all, this was the first time someone had done this. A reporter from the Los Angeles Times wrote, "Maybe, 'Genius Director' can change its name. How about 'Miracle Director'?"

Of course, this name was mostly mockery and ridicule. Although the Golden Globes had some weight, it was still not comparable to the Oscars. However, the Golden Globes were also one of the wind vane of the Oscars, so many people wanted to know what would happen when the Oscar nominations were released in a month.

Therefore, many reporters chased after Adriaan, wanting to hear how he felt about receiving so many Golden Globes nominations, as well as his expectations for the Oscars. But Adriaan always played Tai Chi with them. He either used empty words to deal with them, or simply said nothing. Because he had a lot of things to do, such as attending the movie premiere.

"Hey, Sandy, how are you? You look good! "

"Wow, beautiful Ms. Pullman, you are getting more and more beautiful. It's really amazing."

Through the bustling crowd, Adriaan greeted people he knew and came to the center of the theater.

Walking through the bustling crowd, Adrian greeted the people he knew as he reached the center of the theater's front hall. The reason why there were so many guests was that the upcoming movie was "Jurassic Park," which had an investment of more than 60 million yuan and took more than a year to produce!

After Worldwide, who was responsible for one-third of the funding and distribution, saw the sample, they immediately decided to hold a large-scale premiere to promote the film. That's how it came to be.

"It's a pity that you were not there, Eide. At first, when the giraffe appeared, they were still calm, but when the Tyrannosaurus Rex appeared, they were immediately stunned." A middle-aged man standing next to the flower terrace near the bar said excitedly. He had a light-colored beard, fluffy but not messy hair, thick and thick eyebrows, and his eyes were always squinted into a line. If he remained calm, he would be very dignified, but once he smiled, he was somewhat cute.

"You really shouldn't have said this to me, George. I'm already beginning to regret it." Adriaan cooperated and showed a look of annoyance, which suddenly made the middle-aged man laugh.

This middle-aged man was the director of "Star Wars" and the founder of the famous Industrial Light and Magic, George Lucas! After Spielberg completed the filming of "Jurassic Park," and basically planned the post-production, he handed over the responsibility to his friend Lucas. Then he found Adriaan to prepare "Schindler's List" and quickly went to Poland.

Even now, when it was almost Christmas, he still stayed in Krakow to film, so Lucas, who was responsible for most of the post-production, replaced him to attend the movie premiere.

"It's okay, it's going to premiere soon. You'll see it soon." Lucas laughed and patted him on the shoulder.

"You know, George, I've heard a lot of people say that you are a very serious person, but after seeing you today, I know that those rumors are not reliable," Adriaan said.

"Actually, in a sense, these words are not wrong. I am indeed very strict at work, but it would be too boring if I were like this during normal times." Lucas shrugged, then looked at him and changed the topic. "Let's talk about you, Eide. How have you been feeling recently? You are the most popular director in Hollywood now. What did the media say about you? Even … "

"Let's not talk about this, George." Adriaan smiled bitterly. "I'm now thinking about what kind of theme to make for my next movie, so that I can make up for the overdraft."

"Do you have the same worries?" Lucas laughed heartily. Then, as if he had thought of something, he revealed a look of interest. "Why? Do you have any new ideas? Are you going to start making new movies like crazy again? "

"No, no, no. Although I have new ideas, I have to rest for at least a few months. I don't intend to do things like this year again." Adriaan shook his head and then changed the topic. "By the way, George, are you really not going to make a sequel to 'Star Wars'? If not, how about a prequel? You can't let us down all the time. "

The two of them kept changing the topic, and Lucas looked very happy under Adriaan's subtle compliments. After chatting for about ten minutes, he was about to leave, but Lucas immediately patted him on the shoulder and said incoherently, "Thank you, Eide. You did a good job."

Adriaan was stunned, but when he saw Lucas's sincere look, he quickly reacted and smiled humbly. "This is nothing. What Steven did is worthy of praise."

"Don't be so humble, Eide. Steven told me everything you did. No one can do better than you. He has been running around for this movie, and as an old friend, I am happy that someone can help him realize his wish. " "If it wasn't for the premiere, I would've treated you to a drink to thank you." Lucas said in a serious tone.

"There will be a chance." Adriaan thought of something. "Although I have been busy with my own things, I have always been paying attention to Poland. I heard from the staff there that Steven's mental state doesn't seem to be very good."

"Yes!" Lucas confirmed his statement. "When I talked to him on the phone, his voice sounded weak. This is not surprising. As long as you think about re-experiencing the tragedy through the camera, it will make you shudder. For Steven, it is a kind of torture. "

"I can imagine!" Adriaan nodded sympathetically. "So, after Christmas and New Year's, maybe we can go to Poland together to see him."

Lucas rubbed his chin and thought for a few seconds, then nodded. "That's a good suggestion. I'll consider it."

"Then that's it!" Adriaan made a gesture to leave. "Let's contact each other when we have time."

"Okay, if you need anything, just look for me." Lucas smiled and waved his hand.

George Lucas. Adriaan, who walked into the crowd, muttered the name, and a smile appeared on his face. Is this the first benefit of investing in Schindler's List? Of course, he had to maintain a good relationship with Industrial Light & Magic for a long time in the future. Even in the 21st century, Industrial Light & Magic was still the largest special effects base in Hollywood. Although Lucas did not have many directing works, he had built a huge network of contacts. Not to mention that he was also Jewish.

Gently shaking his head, Adriaan shifted his attention to the surroundings to look for Kate. Because they did not want to be caught by the reporters and asked questions, they entered the theater from the side door. After Adriaan found Lucas and talked to him, Kate, who felt that he could not get a word in, left first.

"There are so many people!" Looking at the bustling crowd in the front hall, Adriaan sighed helplessly. It was not easy to find Kate in this situation, but he still tried hard to find him. Because Monica also came to the premiere, and when he was talking to Lucas, he clearly saw Kate and Monica walking not far away.

Adriaan was not worried that they would have any conflict. Monica attended the premiere of Jurassic Park because he personally called to invite her and hinted that she should not refuse. Therefore, Adriaan wanted to know what kind of conflict would occur between the informed Monica and the unaware Kate?

He was not worried at all. Anyway, Kate would find out sooner or later. Also, this could be considered a small experiment!

Unfortunately, there were too many people in the front hall. Universal seemed to want to invite all of the celebrities in Hollywood. Along the way, there were several producers that he was familiar with, not to mention the directors and actors that he had met before. Just the greetings and small talk alone made his mouth dry.

"You guys really know how to run, where did you go?" Adriaan walked in front of a pillar and stopped. He looked around and shrugged, amused. Then, a warm body bumped into his arms.
