Hollywood Secret Garden

"I heard from Johnny and the others that you've come, but they couldn't find you. I didn't expect you to be in this corner." Keira's angular but very beautiful face appeared in front of her. Obviously, she had been looking for Angela for a long time. , otherwise how could you show an expression of anger and joy, "You are such a big name, you are late and hide away..."

Kayla, who was about to tease her, suddenly shut her mouth. She shrank her neck slightly and touched her face before carefully asking, "Is there... anything on my face?"

"Ah? What? Oh, no, what are you supposed to do!" Angela finally came back to her senses, quickly turned her head away and pinched the bridge of her nose, then turned her head and forcefully squeezed out a shy smile: "Hi, Kayla , I just... thought of something else."

Kaila frowned slightly and stared at An Jilai. The other's gaze made her feel weird, as if she was looking at an object that she couldn't describe.But seeing her standing there with an apologetic smile, it was completely different from the impression she had given her before, and that kind of wonderful contrast made Kaila chuckle.

"Frankly speaking, you look much better when you smile. You look like a... 17-year-old girl." Angela changed the subject.Keira wore a high neckline V-neck backless evening dress. Although there was no material on the chest, the smooth and slender back was very attractive.And she always lifts her chin vaguely, although she gives people a sense of arrogance but is not annoying, just like a little princess.Only that snort just now made her look like the girl next door.

"Why do you say that I didn't look like a 17-year-old girl just now?" After hearing Angela's words, Keira immediately raised her chin and returned to the previous state, "Everyone is always Change, why do you have to set a standard for every age group that must be like this?"

"Well, I'm actually just feeling a little emotional... when I first saw you... you and Nat are almost in the same mold." Angela said this suddenly, and the eyes she looked at Keira became a little strange .

Keira didn't notice the change in the other party, because her heart suddenly became a little uncomfortable.To be honest, she and Natalie have a pretty good relationship. Since filming "The Phantom Menace", they have often exchanged letters, but she doesn't like being said to be exactly the same as someone. Star Wars: The Prequels

After the first film was released, the neighbors' children were blacklisted by her because they said that she and Queen Amirada were twins.

Fortunately, Angela seemed to wake up from something, and then she squeezed out a smile and continued: "However, now you are very different from...Nat, like a princess who came from the other side of the ocean. Frankly To be honest, I can't wait to see your performance on the big screen."

"Let's keep the word princess to yourself, Angie," Keira's mood immediately improved, and her cadenced British accent became more rhythmic, "I don't think anyone can use this word to describe themselves in front of you." .”

"So, I should have played Queen Amidala?" Angela, who had adjusted her mood, said jokingly, and Keira immediately curled her lips: "In this case, Mr. Lucas and the others have to find another Someone else acted as the Queen's stand-in, and then we wouldn't know each other, and I wouldn't be standing in front of you now."

Speaking of this, a picture suddenly broke into my mind, and after a few seconds of stunned, a blush unconsciously flashed across Keira's face, while Angela waved her hand with a smile at this time: "That's not necessarily true, fate This stuff is amazing.”

Keira was stunned again, and when she wanted to say something, the premiere just started.

This version of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is also very attractive, whether it is the pirate attack at the beginning, or the pure beauty of Keira when she suddenly wakes up from a dream, and the depression and helplessness when wearing a corset, or Orlando. The embarrassment when arriving at the Governor's Mansion, and the unrequited admiration when seeing Keira, all caught the audience's attention after the opening.

And when everyone thought it was another cliche love story between a poor boy and a noble daughter, another protagonist or the first protagonist, Jack Sparrow, appeared.He stood solemnly on the mast of the sailboat, looking up vigorously as if nothing could trouble him, and the camera gave him a 360° rotation shot.

Then as he entered the port, the camera moved down, when the sunken ship with only its mast on the water appeared in the picture, and Jack Sparrow still stepped onto the pier with an indifferent expression, and gagged with the administrator with a playful smile Suddenly, the whole theater burst into laughter.

"What do you think of your image, Jack?" Even Angela couldn't help joking with her agent, but Sparrow just shrugged and said nothing.

Next, the laughing and cursing appearance of the sissy Captain Sparrow made the whole theater laugh, especially the way that the two of them hijacked the Interceptor with Will Turner in order to save Elizabeth. They couldn't help admiring.Depp perfectly interprets the crazy and unruly image of Jack Sparrow.Although Orlando has also grasped Will Turner's upright and old-fashioned traits very well, he is still relatively young.Even though it formed a strong contrast with Depp, it played more of a role in bringing out the charm of Captain Sparrow.

Not to mention the characters, the director handled those small details quite well.For example, when Turner asked Sparrow how to find Elizabeth, the guy smiled playfully and didn't answer. After taking out the compass and looking at it, he waved and ordered.Turner had to ask the first mate: What is the use of such a broken compass that cannot point north?Although the first officer did not give him a clear answer, the camera showed a close-up of the compass, and the audience's curiosity was immediately aroused.

Another example is that Barbossa was having dinner with Elizabeth. When the moonlight shone in and revealed her original shape, Elizabeth was frightened and ran around. When Barbosa approached, she grabbed a small octopus-like statue on the table and threw it at him. past.And Barbosa, who turned into a skeleton, walked away calmly, then picked it up and said leisurely: "You shouldn't do this, Miss Turner, this is someone's most important thing, if you lose it, you will be in big trouble gone."

There are many such foreshadowings, and in the eyes of the audience, these are harmless. Only Angela or Bruckheimer will know how much such foreshadowing will cause in the next two films.Look at those crazy "Matrix" fans,

Only a few days after the release of the second part, I started to study the details over and over again.

It's a pity that although "Pirates of the Caribbean" is excellent in both the storyline and the performances of the actors and actresses, and the box office of the first weekend reached 4000 million US dollars - even if it is lower than the 2 million US dollars of "The Matrix 9000", the other party is expected after all. It has been a long-awaited sequel—it can only be a very good commercial film, and it is impossible to become a well-received and well-received classic.

In fact, the reviews after the premiere confirmed this.Everyone is praising the story of the film as very interesting, imaginative, and well grasped the details of the time. As for other aspects... It can be summed up in one sentence: "It tells a good story, yes A movie suitable for a summer pastime."

That's it.

Well, anyway, it was just a commercial movie from the start, and for Disney, who invested, and Pixar, who invested and produced it, as long as it made money.And it is definitely not a problem to see the box office hit with this momentum. The Pixar film department has already begun to discuss whether to follow the example of "The Matrix" and shoot the next two films in one go. Anyway, because of Angela's relationship,

The set after the first filming is still there.

"Disney must be very jealous. If they had participated in the production or even bought the script, they would have received much more benefits than they do now." Looking at the news in the newspaper that the game named Pirates of the Caribbean in Disneyland was killed because of the movie Angela couldn't help but chuckle at the extremely hot news.

"As the CEO of Disney, Michael Eisner is very business-minded. Immediately after the movie premiered, he erected promotional posters and 1-to-1 cards next to the pirate game. He was even looking for someone to play in public... Hmm... Captain Jack Sparrow, thus attracting many tourists." Sparrow said after coughing dryly.

"Why, is there anything unaccustomed to being a celebrity?" Angela couldn't help showing a sly smile.

When Sparrow and Angela appeared in public together a few days ago, a reporter once asked if Captain Sparrow in "Pirates of the Caribbean" was based on him, so the girl asked jokingly now.

Seeing that the other party remained silent as if they were dealing with a reporter, Angela couldn't bear it and continued to tease: "If you want, why not play a few roles in a movie, maybe you will become a big star right away."

"I don't have time to think about this right now, Angie," Sparrow, who couldn't bear it anymore, had to change the subject, "I wonder if Disney will do something about it, you know in recent years..."

"The patent of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is in our hands, isn't it?" Angela asked interrupted.

"Yes." Sparrow nodded immediately.

"That's fine. I think Michael will have a bottom line no matter how greedy he is." Angela said lightly, and couldn't help but recall the image of the Disney CEO ten years ago. At that time, he was still ambitious to do something. Career, but now with success has become more and more insatiable.

When a person has been in power for too long, will his original face be revealed slowly?The girl pinched the bridge of her nose to relax herself. For some reason, when she thought of certain words, a different face appeared in her mind, the one that appeared at the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean".

At this moment, the phone rang, and Angela, who came back to her senses, laughed at herself and quickly picked it up and pressed the answer button. Alizee's calm voice rang out: "How long will it take you?" Will you be there?"

"Don't worry, Lily," Angela looked out of the car window, "It rained heavily on the way here, so there was a slight delay. There are still about 5 minutes, please be patient."

"You should say that to Mr. Peter, not me." She hung up the phone after she finished speaking.

Angela shook her head with a wry smile, and couldn't help but roll her eyes when she thought of Peter Jackson.She is now on her way to Northumberland, a county in northeastern England bordering Scotland, where the Lord of the Rings reshoots are filming.Originally, Angela would not come to the UK to participate in the re-shooting until next month, but she didn't want to stay in the US for too long now, so after getting in touch with Peter, she adjusted the arrangement and came ahead of schedule.

Although Peter was very happy that she was willing to report to the crew in advance, he still had to babble on some issues—apparently he was frightened by her asking for leave every three days to leave last time—as if he was a little late now, And even though Angela had asked her assistant to come to the set first, she still couldn't help but urge her.

"I think you are sometimes obsessive-compulsive, Peter, always dissatisfied with other people's behavior." After arriving at the destination and hugging Peter, Angela said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"It's also because of you, Angie, you made me like this!" Peter retorted immediately.

"Don't try to put all the problems on me, Peter." Angela's eyes twitched unconsciously, "Do you want me to give an example? Elijah's? Or Vigo's? Or Sir McKellen's?"

"Come on, it's nothing at all. Which director doesn't have a strong desire to control? You should know better than me, Miss Best Director. Unless your movies are all directed by others, and only your name is used." Said At this point, Peter blew his beard with disdain.

Angela couldn't help being slightly startled, and her expression became a little dazed.Fortunately, she controlled her emotions in time, and Peter didn't notice, and the two came to the set immediately.

I have to say that Peter is very good at choosing locations. Northumberland is bordered by the North Sea to the east and high mountains to the north. There are mountains, lowlands, forests, moorlands, and river valleys. It is really a good place for re-shooting "Lord of the Rings" .

Angela who came to the crew also met many old friends. Needless to say, Ilya and Vigo, the first and second protagonists, John, who played Gimli as one of the members of the Fellowship of the Ring, was also present, but McKellen Jazz left the crew early because the reshoots were over.It's just... What makes the girl a little flustered is that Liv is still on the set!

"Cut!" Peter yelled loudly, and after letting the photographer replay it a few times behind the monitor, he finally made an OK gesture: "Very good, now prepare the 445th mirror!"

Angela immediately breathed a sigh of relief, the damn scene finally passed.She originally wanted to go over and ask whether the previous few times were due to her own reasons or Peter wanted to take more shots, but in the end she gave up.

As soon as he returned to his chair, a cup of hot drink at just the right temperature was handed over.Angela, who took it, couldn't help but smiled at Alizee, then held it up to her face and took a sip.

She closed her eyes and let the drink reverberate in her mouth for a while before she realized that Alizee was still standing beside her, frowning and watching that she hadn't left, she couldn't help asking strangely: "Is there anything else?"

"No, it's nothing, you've read all the arrangements, it's just..." Alizee shook her head, glanced to the side, and then walked away.Angela looked at the place she had glanced inexplicably, and suddenly her throat seemed to be blocked by something, and she couldn't cough out. Not far away, Liv was under the tree, wearing clothes, watching the filming of the set intently.

They haven't said anything in the past few days, and even if they occasionally make eye contact, they quickly move away.Angela didn't know what she was thinking or what Liv was thinking, so she could only keep silent.Fortunately, these days, they are either shooting their own shots or taking Liv's shots, and they don't have time to interact with each other, otherwise, maybe someone who is interested will see something.

But now it looks like someone has guessed something.Angela wanted to smile wryly. With Lily by her side, although she doesn't have to worry about the trivial things around her, it's hard to keep secrets.You know, even Annie doesn't know about all the entanglements between her and Liv.

After waving these messy thoughts out of her mind, Angela took a deep breath, put down her cup and walked towards Liv.

"Hi, Liv." Angela greeted softly after standing behind the girl.

After turning her head to take a look, Liv turned back again: "Hi, Angel."

"Hmm...how are you doing lately?" Angela came up with this sentence after thinking for a while, and at the same time, Liv's resentful expression when she said "I want to hate you" at the premiere of "Lord of the Rings" emerged in her heart.

"It's the same..." Liv replied in a light tone.

"Same as usual?" Angela answered with some doubts.

"You look...really handsome." Liv suddenly turned her head, with an inexplicable gleam in her blue eyes, "No wonder you are so popular."

"You... what are you talking about?" Angela showed a strange look, and couldn't help reaching out to touch the silicone on her face.Because filming could start at any moment, she's still in a "Legolas" look.

To be honest, this is the first time that a woman close to him has praised him for being handsome. You must know that they have never...

The girl shivered and quickly came back to her senses, and Liv's voice came to her ears immediately: "I mean, I want to kiss you and slap you, then kiss you and slap you again. "

Seeing the other party's serious expression, Angela didn't know what to say for a while, and couldn't even smile bitterly.

"It's still the same, every time I think I can face it calmly, my heart will become chaotic when you appear in front of me." Liv showed a rare wry smile at the corner of her mouth, "You can't ...Can't you give me enough time to clear up my mood?"

Angela looked at her blankly, and suddenly blurted out something: "They broke up with me, and they broke up with me on the day of graduation."
