"Compared to the photos, Adriaan looks much more robust in real life. Of course, it's also because the newspaper doesn't have any decent photos. You can't use handsome to describe him. Although Adriaan is young, he has an indescribable confidence. When you look at him, he gives you a feeling that nothing can stump him.
We talked for about thirty minutes. Adriaan had a smile on his face the whole time. He talked at a moderate pace, and you were attracted to him unconsciously. During the whole interview, I rarely interjected. He was the only one talking. He was very talkative, and it was easy for people to become his audience.
"Even now, I'm still surprised that I picked up the microphone and became a director and a filmmaker." When he said that, the emotion on his face was obvious. Even so, I could hear the confidence in his voice. Just like what he said, even though it was his first time as a director, he still believed that he could do it well.
Adrian didn't shy away from his youthful and frivolous debauchery. He confessed that he was just like any other young man, spending all night at the bar, fooling around, and never thinking about his future. Even when his parents passed away, it only made him more addicted to alcohol, unable to extricate himself.
Fortunately, he finally stood up again. According to him, he suddenly woke up that day, without any warning, and began to plan his future. Then, there was the amazing Adriaan that we saw today.
"I can't describe that feeling. All kinds of ideas kept popping up, and I had to work hard to realize them. It was as if they had accumulated to a certain level, and they had to explode. I don't know why there was such an accumulation. Maybe it's because of my previous irregular life? But, I can't deny that it was very pleasant to realize these ideas. " That was how Adriaan explained his' crazy 'behavior. When it came to this topic, he seemed very excited, and his tone became faster. He seemed to have endless ideas about movies, and inspiration would come at any time.
I can't judge him. He's different from all the other directors I've met. He's full of energy and confidence, and at the same time, he's humble and polite. I can't understand him, and he's very charming. I know this article is not enough to fully describe the youngest director to be nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director, but these are my truest thoughts. "
After Haggis Pine's interview was published in the Washington Post, it immediately set off another wave of enthusiasm, and the public's interest in Adriaan increased. The Best Newcomer Award at the Venice Film Festival, the Jury Award at the Berlin Film Festival, the nomination for Best Director at the Academy Award, and the high box office earnings of these three films, as well as his ridiculous past, all added up to form a dazzling halo around Adriaan's head.
"The whole of Hollywood seems to be revolving around this prodigal son." Some media said with jealousy.
Even the executives of the major film companies, who knew Adriaan, were surprised by this trend.
"It's like finding a new idol. The difference is that this idol is a young director, not a star on the big screen," Disneyland's Eric Cahill said.
"He must be doing it on purpose. At least in my opinion, everything he does has a purpose." Spielberg, who was preparing for the filming of "Jurassic Park," said this when he talked to his friends about Adriaan.
Well, Spielberg was right. Adriaan was indeed doing it on purpose. As Laffern had said, if he couldn't fix it, he had to think in a different direction. What he wanted to say was that he should just publicize Adriaan's films to lay a foundation in the public's mind, and then wait until next year to go to the next level, if the quality of all three of Adriaan's films could be guaranteed.
If he used it properly, he might even win a trophy at the 64th Oscars. Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Supporting Actor were out of the question, but Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Soundtrack, Best Editing, and Best Cinematography were all worth fighting for.
However, Adriaan obviously thought further than him. This sudden incident had given him a better idea. After listening to it for the first time, Laffern also thought it was feasible and had a good effect.
In addition, he had a strange request: "The Shawshank Redemption" must not win any awards!
"Because I want to create a classic and perfect work," Adriaan said when Laffern asked him why. Although Laffern still didn't understand, he didn't continue to explain.
In Adriaan's memory, the reason why "The Shawshank Redemption" left a heavy mark in the history of film and was regarded as the most perfect film, in addition to its quality, the title of "Uncrowned King" was also one of the important factors.
If it hadn't run into "The True Story of Argan" and failed to win anything, "The Shawshank Redemption" would not have received so many sympathy points. It was precisely these sympathy points that added a considerable weight to "The Shawshank Redemption" — most people felt pity for those who had been defeated after a fierce battle. Every time they made a comparison, they would unknowingly favor the brave loser in their hearts. Thus, it won a high position in the history of film.
Now, because of Adriaan, "The Shawshank Redemption" had appeared two years ahead of schedule, it just had to run into "The Silence of the Lambs". Obviously, it was impossible to win a few of the most important awards, so it was better to give up on all of them and push this film to the throne of "Uncrowned King" like in his memory. Moreover, this would be very helpful to Adriaan's new adjusted plan.
Well, let's put this matter aside for now. No matter what, the Oscars will be held at the end of March. I should focus my energy on the filming of "Pulp Fiction".
Because of the continued high public attention on him, Adriaan became busier and busier. Not only did he have to busy himself with filming, but he also had to prevent reporters from secretly filming the plot. Fortunately, most of the scenes were indoors.
Although it was a little tiring, he didn't take it to heart. Since he had decided to release some of the accumulated reputation, he naturally had to bear the corresponding pressure. Fortunately, there were good things in life. For example, Willis was probably stimulated by Adriaan, so he suddenly got into a good mood and finished filming three days ahead of schedule. Also, many people called to congratulate him, including Claude, his godfather, and some of his old friends. What surprised him even more was that Kate came to visit him from the academy. So, that night, Adriaan specially comforted her in the hotel.
