Chapter 1798: Chapter 1798
Looking at the suffocatingly beautiful scenery outside the window, Hugo let out a long breath, and his mood gradually recovered, but the smile on the corner of his mouth unconsciously formed, "So, what do you want to be with me just now?" What did I say?" Charlize's voice came over, and Hugo hesitated, "Yeah", and then said quickly, "I want to tell you, the audition I mentioned to you last time, if you don't work hard , I'm guessing I'll miss it."
"Audition?" Charlize crossed her legs on the table, took a sip of coffee, frowned because of the bitterness in her mouth, but obviously enjoyed the moment. Even Charlize herself didn't notice that she was truly relaxed at this moment, and that kind of casual and natural comfort completely relaxed her whole body. "Ah, you mean the new script you received, 'L.A. Confidential'?"
"Yes, I called you to audition last night, but..." Hugo pursed his lips, causing Charlize to sneer, "It ended up being interrupted by some disgusting man." Guo chuckled lightly, "At first I wanted to say 'the result was taken away by Kim Basinger', but if you want to say that, it's fine."
"Kim Basinger?" Charlize ignored Hugo's sarcasm, and immediately noticed the point. Her tone did not conceal her surprise.
"Why are you surprised? Because she was on the cover of 'Playboy'?" Hugo was also a little surprised by Charlize's reaction, and said jokingly.
Charlize rolled her eyes angrily, "Of course not. I just think her performance is better than Nicole's. It's just a little unexpected. Nicole's performance is always amazing, isn't it?" What Charlize said was Nicole Kidman.
Hugo nodded her chin. Although the current Nicole is far from reaching the peak of her career, her performance has indeed been gradually polished, which is enough to leave a deep impression on many people. "Nicole just showed up as a courtesy, she and Tom had other plans," Hugo explained.
"Oh, that's no surprise." Charlize suddenly realized, "So, has the role been determined now?"
"I thought you weren't interested in this role." Hugo knew that Charlize had actually given the script of "LA Confidential" to Charlize for a few days, but she hadn't read it all the time, obviously she was a little bit disappointed.
However, this is also understandable. After filming "Romeo and Juliet" and "The Devil's Advocate", especially the latter, Charlize has not been able to fully come out after a long period of counseling by a psychiatrist. With all the shit that happened, Charlize immediately threw herself into a new script, which was definitely not an easy task. Even with Hugo, it's hard to do.
Charlize shrugged without denying, "It's true that I'm not at my best, but... the scripts chosen by Hugo Lancaster always have infinite magic, don't they?" When I reached the wall, I just sat on the TV cabinet and relaxed myself, "So, are you interested in talking to me about this character in detail?"
Hugo laughed lightly, and when he heard the sound on the bed, Leonardo seemed to be awakened, raised his head and glanced at Hugo, and then got up in a panic, only then did he remember that it was rain Hugo's room, if he sleeps here, what will happen to Hugo and Cameron last night. No, Hugo smiled at him, indicating that he could continue to sleep, and then Hugo sat on the windowsill, leaning against the glass window, bathed in the morning sun, and whispered, "If you read the script, you won't Need me..."
Leonardo glanced at the relaxed smile on Hugo's face, and then buried his head in the pillow again, falling into a deep sleep.
Venice Beach in May can already see a large number of young people who come to surf, as well as tourists in Los Angeles. Although the sea breeze is still a bit cold, the whole beach is already very lively. After finding a place to park the car, Curtis Hansen put on sunglasses and a fisherman hat. After letting out a long breath, he opened the car door and went down. He walked along the main street and soon found it at the end. The restaurant called "Friday" has a Hawaiian-style thatched hut with hand-woven wicker chairs, blowing a wave of summer holidays.
At this time, there were not many customers in the restaurant. Curtis looked around, but he didn't see Hugo's figure. He turned around and searched again, but he still didn't see it. This made Curtis frowned. Hugo called him just now and said that he would have breakfast here at ten o'clock, so why didn't he see Hugo after he arrived? Could it be that he came too early? Curtis remembered that it was almost ten o'clock when he got out of the car. Hugo was not a person who was used to being late.
Thinking about it, Curtis didn't stop any longer, looked around, and decided to find a seat to sit down. Then he saw the graceful girl sitting in the corner. In fact, this was the third time he had seen her. He was attracted by that figure the first time he entered the door.
Wearing a blue traditional cheongsam, a proudly blooming peony bloomed all the way from the right shoulder, as if the sky was full of stars falling on the whole cheongsam. It's obviously an unassuming color, but it's white as snow, with a creamy halo under the faint sunlight, which makes people want to reach out and touch it, but they are worried about themselves His actions blasphemed the woman in front of him.
A head of golden curly hair was pulled into a neat bun, revealing a swan-like neck curve, thick and slender eyelashes cast a row of shadows, flickering, as if the dust of the sun spread in the air, amazing time, so that the flow of time has become slow down.
In fact, due to the position where Curtis is standing, he can only see the arc of the woman's chin, and nothing else, but there is a kind of magic power in this woman, which makes people unable to help but cast their eyes, as if A luminous body firmly attracts all of his attention.
Almost before Curtis realized it, he walked towards the woman. However, he was not so bold as to strike up a conversation directly, but was about to walk to the empty table next to the woman.
In fact, Los Angeles is a city that has never lacked beautiful women, especially after the film industry has fully flourished, women with dreams of being actors have followed suit. They can do whatever it takes to get a small role in a film. This is also the reason why there were countless scouts on the streets in the 1980s and 1990s-often they could unearth many potential new stars on the streets.
But the woman in front of him was indeed impossible to look away from, and Curtis's mouth was almost dry. Just before he was about to sit down, Curtis couldn't hold back after all, and walked straight to the woman's table, "Good morning, ma'am, are you alone?"
"Mr. Hansen, I'm waiting for your arrival." The woman turned her head and looked over when she heard the voice, with a bright smile on her face, which surprised Curtis again for a moment, and then he saw the woman standing Standing up, he stretched out his right hand towards himself.
Curtis was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't help shouting in his heart that he was lucky. Fortunately, he didn't foolishly stepped forward and asked the other party "Do you want to be an actor", otherwise he would be embarrassed. Curtis tried to hide his embarrassment, showing a big smile, "Miss Theron, I didn't expect to meet you here." The beauty in front of him was Charlize Theron, "Where's Hugo? I thought He's already here."
Charlize is a beautiful woman. Many people know this. When "Before Sunrise" was released, many people were amazed. The outstanding performance in "Romeo and Juliet" made many people applaud. She and Leon Nadeau's combination was amazed by many media reporters as the "golden boy and jade girl" combination.
However, today Curtis really felt Charlize's elegance and sexuality. Charlize after deliberately dressing up is different from the freshness in "Before Sunrise" and the classicism in "Romeo and Juliet". A well-polished diamond is amazing, but you can't take your eyes off it.
"He met a friend just now, so he might be late." Charlize said with a smile, "What do you like for breakfast? The pancakes here are very delicious. If you pair them with bacon and poached eggs, I think this day will become more delicious." It's wonderful." Charlize seemed to have overstepped, and without listening to Curtis's answer, she enthusiastically recommended the breakfast menu.
But Curtis didn't seem to care, and twitched the corners of his lips a little cautiously, "Very well, then, let's have pancakes with bacon and poached eggs." Curtis only hoped that Charlize would not pursue his initial conversation, then It was the most humiliating moment of the day, and he didn't want to relive it.
Charlize raised her right hand and called the waiter. After ordering, she turned to look at Curtis again, "Mr. Hansen, do you need a cup of coffee? This is just my habit, I don't know you Do you like it?"
"Coffee, of course, please give me a cup of coffee." Curtis smiled at the waiter, but he didn't realize that in his panic, the rhythm of the conversation had completely fallen into Charlize's hands.
"I'm very sorry, I was too rude last night and missed meeting you." Charlize always had that elegant smile on her face, "Actually, I have been looking forward to meeting you. I chatted with Kevin before. He mentioned that you are a very good director, especially when you are on the set, you have your own set of methods. The whole filming period of "Wild River" was very pleasant."
Curtis nodded with a smile, "Oh, of course, you guys have cooperated with Meryl, that's a very admirable thing." Charlize's words didn't fluctuate much, and she always maintained a kind of elegant Casual, that refreshing smile will make invisible sex. The feeling slowly seeped out, and it made people blush inadvertently.
Curtis didn't notice that his cheeks were slightly flushed, "Of course, it's an honor for the director to be able to work with such an excellent actor as Meryl..."
