Chapter 749

In December, the competition for the Thanksgiving and Christmas slots became more and more intense. Big productions from big companies began to enter theaters like mushrooms after a spring rain, occupying most of the screens. At the same time, the competition further squeezed the survival space of various small independent films. For example, after "The Piano Class" increased to 500 screens, it stabilized at this level. Previously, it could have been at the bottom of the North American box office rankings, but now it was completely knocked down.

But it didn't matter. Anyway, "The Piano Class" was a long-term release, so it didn't matter. The one that was really affected was "Philadelphia Story", which was scheduled to be released in early December. Although it was basically a commercial film, at the same time, it had a bit of an artistic feel to it. Compared to other films that went straight for the box office, it was naturally less competitive.

But from another perspective, the lack of competitiveness was not a big deal, because the male lead of the film was gay! Although gay organizations in America had always been active, especially on the West Coast, and San Francisco had been the home of gay organizations since the 1970s, it was far less active and influential than it was in the 21st century. Naturally, movies that were willing to say good things about gay people were favored.

Even if "Philadelphia Story" was more about the struggle of AIDS patients against discrimination, as long as the male lead was gay, it was enough. They could completely see it as a gay struggle against discrimination. It was foreseeable that they would spontaneously organize to support this film, just like "Schindler's List." Although it didn't have as wide an influence as those old men, it could still fill the gap with other commercial films. This could be considered a loss on the swings, but gain on the swings.

"Although we oppose all forms of discrimination, we have to admit that it's not that easy to eliminate. That's why Adriaan thought of this theme and handed it to me. Fortunately, I didn't mess it up." At the press conference after the premiere, Jonathan Daimi said to the reporters with a smile on his face. The applause after the premiere gave him enough confidence.

Although Adriaan attended the premiere, he didn't show up at the press conference. He had already told Daimi everything that needed to be said, so there was no need for him to steal the limelight. To be honest, he didn't even want to attend the premiere. In the past two months, he had attended too many movie premieres. Although it wasn't much different from a party, anything that went too far was as bad as not going far enough. But he still came, because Hanks was also attending.

Hanks's acting skills didn't need to be mentioned. For this role, he specially volunteered at the hospital for a period of time, so he had a good understanding of AIDS. Therefore, even though it was slightly different from the original, his performance was still impeccable. At least half of the applause at the end was for him.

Therefore, Adrian wanted to take this opportunity to decide on the main character. Unexpectedly, when they talked about this, Hanks, who had already read the first draft, asked him, "Did these really happen?"

At that moment, Adrian really wanted to cover his head, but he still explained patiently, "These things really happened, but Forrest Gump is fictional. Do you understand, Tom? I intend to play out the history of the United States for the last thirty or forty years through the life of a fictional man. "

Hanks actually understood, but he didn't think it was good. "Don't you think it's weird and funny to mix reality and fiction like this?"

"Believe me, Tom, you'll love it." Adrian had no choice but to say, "What I showed you a few days ago was just the first draft. You'll understand after I revise it."

Although Hanks's stubbornness was a bit of a headache, Adrian wasn't worried that he would change his mind. He had already agreed in front of so many people at Dennis's party. After all, Hanks wasn't Forrest Gump, he was a smart man.

This problem was temporarily solved, but Adrian had gotten himself into another trouble — it wasn't really a problem. If it was someone else, he would be delighted, but …

This problem was temporarily solved, but Adriaan immediately got himself into another trouble. It wasn't really a trouble. If it were someone else, he would just be very happy, but … Adriaan got out of the driver's seat, walked around the front of the car, and opened the front passenger door. Then, Sarah walked out.

Her medium-short brown hair hung softly on her shoulders. Under the white silk blouse was a dark-colored strapless dress. Coupled with black translucent stockings and five-inch high heels, she looked sexy and seductive. But her face had a thin layer of makeup, and she had the unique purity of a young girl. It was contradictory and unified. She was so beautiful.

But there was no expression on her beautiful face. Only her teeth secretly moved across her lips from time to time.

"Come in," Adriaan said in a gentle voice, but he shook his head gently.

"Okay," Sarah replied in a low voice. Then, she followed him without looking at him.

When they came to the living room, Adriaan looked at the wall lamp that had been turned on. He was about to call out a few words, but when he remembered that he told Charlize on the phone that Sarah was going to spend the night, he swallowed his words.

"Do you want something to drink?" Adriaan took off his coat and threw it on the sofa. Then, he looked at Sarah who was behind him.

Sarah suddenly shook her head. Her body was more tense than before she got in the car. Adriaan sighed, poured himself a glass of water, and sat opposite Sarah. He wanted to speak several times to change the dull atmosphere, but every time he saw the girl's eyelids drooping and her hands clasped together on her legs, he could only shrug.

"Let's … go to the bedroom." After a long time, Sarah finally spoke. She still didn't dare to look at Adriaan. Although there was a slight tremble in her voice, there was a sense of determination.

"Okay," Adriaan's mouth twitched. He shook his head slightly and then agreed to the proposal.

The two of them came to Adriaan's spacious bedroom. After entering the door, he stretched, pulled off his tie and threw it aside. After thinking carefully, he turned around and was about to say a few words. Then, he was stunned.

In front of him, Sarah had already taken off her short silk blouse. Her tube top had also been pulled down to her calves. Her black lace bra accentuated her twin peaks, making her look even more mysterious. Coupled with the garter belt around her waist and the black transparent stockings, Adrian couldn't help but feel his blood pumping. He couldn't help but take a deep breath.

But Sarah's body was still tense. Her head was slightly lowered, and her chest was rising and falling rapidly like a frightened rabbit.

"It's … really tempting." After looking at Sarah as if she was a beautiful object, Adriaan suddenly said. The girl standing at the door suddenly trembled slightly. She reached out to take off her bra, but Adriaan's voice sounded again, "Before that, take a shower first."

"Yes … Yes." Sarah replied nervously. After taking the pajamas from Adriaan, she picked up the clothes on the ground and ran into the bathroom in a panic.

He really didn't know why she insisted on coming here. Adriaan shook his head and then touched his chin thoughtfully.

Soon, both of them finished showering. So, they sat facing each other in their pajamas and began to stare blankly. The courage that Sarah mustered before seemed to have flowed away with the running water.

"Well, how about … Tell me, how's your acting class recently?" Adriaan found a topic. "Or do you have any new plans? Vacation with mom? "

Sarah kept her head down and didn't speak. Since she insisted on coming to the villa with him at the premiere, she had never looked at him directly. Adriaan finally sighed and then raised his hands, "Forget it, then …"

"No!" The young girl suddenly bounced up from the chair, her evasive eyes filled with panic as she looked at him.

"It's okay, I know you …" Adriaan said comfortingly.

"No!" The girl screamed again, and there was a hint of pain in her voice. She closed her eyes and bit her lip. After struggling for about ten seconds, she opened her eyes again and finally looked at Adriaan, but her expression was a little numb.

The belt was pulled open, and with a rustling sound, the pajamas slipped to the ground. Sarah's beautiful body was finally completely revealed in front of Adriaan. Delicate skin, exquisite collarbones, firm and perky breasts, slender waist, slender legs, and a mysterious and alluring region. Everywhere was telling of the beauty that only belonged to a young girl.

"You're so beautiful, Sarah." Adriaan's Adam's apple bobbed, and then he said in an admiring tone, and then he made a gesture for her to come over. Sarah took a deep breath and walked in front of Adriaan. She closed her eyes and resisted the trembling of her body and the heaving of her chest. She tried to use a calm voice to ask, "Now … what should I do?"

Adriaan didn't answer. He just reached out and grabbed her waist and gently rubbed it. The girl with her eyes closed frowned and suddenly let out a light moan, and her naked body became a little stiff. Adriaan smiled silently. His hands began to move up, across her smooth shoulders, and then he held Sarah's face and kissed her rosy lips.

To be honest, this kiss didn't feel good. At first, Sarah resisted. Although she quickly adjusted, it was completely mechanical. Every time Adriaan's tongue went deeper, her body became harder. When the kiss ended, the girl was as hard as a rock.

Caressing Sarah's face, Adriaan smiled silently again.

"Okay, that's it for today." He said, "Let's rest, Sarah."

Sarah opened her eyes in surprise.

"I … I didn't do well?" She said anxiously, "Yes, I did not do well, but … but I can change … as long as I have time …"

Fear filled her beautiful face, and she almost reached down to grab him.

"Okay, Sarah, listen to me." Adriaan gently held the girl's face, "You did well, no one did better than you, but, you're not ready."

He stretched out his finger and pressed it on her lips, "Making love is a wonderful thing, but it requires both sides to be willing to be together. You're only getting pain and not happiness. I don't want that. I want to give you a first night that is worth remembering and remembering. So, unless you really want it from the bottom of your heart, I won't give it to you. So, have a good sleep now. Everything will be different when you wake up tomorrow. "
