Server SkyVids Link 242 Version 242

The domestic film market once reached a peak in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but then due to the impact of TV, video tapes and piracy, the film market continued to shrink. After entering the 1990s, the number of viewers in the domestic film market was only One percent of the peak period. Under such circumstances, importing foreign films has become a life-saver for the film industry.

Therefore, at the end of 1994, China started the process of introducing foreign films. At the beginning, only ten films were allowed to be imported each year. This plan was undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the entire film market. Hong Kong films entered the mainland market, allowing The movie market is booming again. Subsequently, Warner Bros.'s "Desperados" entered the domestic market in the form of box-office distribution.

"The End of the World" also became the first American film to be introduced in domestic history. Then in 1995, "True Lies", "The Lion King" and "Forrest Gump" began to enter the domestic film market, officially It opened the way for the domestic film market to connect with the world.

As the first person to eat crabs, "The End of the World" was the only American film that legally entered major cinemas in China in 1994. At that time, Hugo also went to the cinema under the leadership of his parents to join in the fun, but at that time Hugo He was only five years old, and he didn't remember what the movie was doing. He only vaguely remembered that he ate a lot of snacks and had a good night's sleep.

Many years later, when Hugo grew up, he had the opportunity to re-watch the movie "The End of the World", but he was not impressed enough. In fact, "The End of the World" is a typical Hollywood blockbuster. The plot twists and turns, and the climax is repeated. Many classic action scenes are indeed worthy of praise, but in the eyes of Hugo, who has watched countless blockbusters, it really lacks some appeal.

In fact, "The End of the World" not only achieved a huge success at the box office that year, but also won the best supporting actor at the Oscars and was nominated for the best picture. From this, it can be seen that this film is still well received. . There are the thrills of a commercial blockbuster, and at the same time, there are wonderful performances that are worth exploring.

The film is also full of the style of the leading actor Harrison Ford. Harrison relies on the "Star Wars (Star. War)" series and "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series to become the first real box office star in the recent history of movies, although he is not Jack Nicholson, Al Pacino, etc. An old actor, he has never won any heavyweight acting awards in his acting career, but this does not prevent him from using his vigorous skills and heroic eyes to attract people to open their wallets willingly and enter the cinema.

In Harrison's career as an actor, "Desperados" is not as famous as other films in the series, but it is still a very rare work.

Hugo can't remember the specific plot of the movie, but he just remembers the intense and busy process of watching the movie. He only vaguely remembers that the story is about a doctor who is believed to have killed his wife, but in fact the murderer is another. There are other people. In order to prove his innocence, the doctor chose to escape from prison. The doctor has to face the police's pursuit all the way, and at the same time, he does not forget to find the real murderer.

When I watched the movie, I thought it was very exciting, but when I think about it, this is a typical Hollywood hero movie. An ordinary doctor is proficient in all kinds of martial arts. However, the gripping script still makes the movie break away from the ordinary popcorn movie, which can be called a good work.

After listening to Joseph's simple explanation, Hugo couldn't help but ask curiously, "Last time 'Sleepless in Seattle' said that I would play the role of a widower, which can be explained; A doctor with a successful career and a happy family, don't you think I'm not a good fit?" Harrison is fifty years old this year, and you can imagine how different this role is from Hugo.

Joseph's anxious mood was stunned by Hugo's words, "I thought you were reluctant to give up any opportunity, and you won't know the result until you try it, don't you?"

Hugo nodded, "That's what I said, but some things are not worth trying for me. For example, you asked me to audition for the role of 'Home Alone' Macaulay Culkin now, which is obviously not worth it. Reality."

Never give up on anything, this is a belief. But knowing that it is not feasible and not knowing how to give up is stupid and stubborn. People have self-knowledge, which contains this meaning. Never giving up is a belief, but it is also very important to do what you can.

Although Joseph was still in a heavy mood, he couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, "Don't worry, everyone knows that it must be unconvincing. So, if you succeed in the audition, the setting of the story will definitely be modified a little."

"It's like 'Sleepless in Seattle'." Hugo is no stranger to this. Although there is no news about "Sleepless in Seattle", if Hugo can play, the age and past settings of the actor Sam will definitely be A slight modification to become more suitable for the actor's situation is the only way to increase the persuasiveness.

"Yes." Joseph nodded. "I told Arnold about this yesterday. He said that after you audition, if you succeed, he will discuss it with the screenwriter." After that, Joseph did not speak any more. All energy was diverted to the car, speeding all the way to Universal Pictures.

Hugo couldn't help but grabbed the handle above the passenger's window, widened his eyes, and kept swallowing saliva. Hugo always had a shadow on the car accident. He felt that the car was going to turn into a jet and take off. Hugo strongly suspected that Joseph was going to be fined for speeding. Fortunately, no patrolmen were seen along the way, otherwise things would have gotten more complicated.

Even if it soared all the way to Universal Studios, the hands of the watch still pointed to a quarter past ten, and it had been a long time since the appointed time.

"Quick, quick!" Joseph said loudly to Hugo before he even had time to stop the car, "Warner Bros. office building, conference room on the fifth floor. Quick, quick!" Hugo opened the car door and ran all the way, Joseph watched Seeing Hugo's back that quickly disappeared from sight, he hurriedly parked the car, pulled out the key and closed the door. After doing this series of actions, he also ran over.

Joseph's tonnage is really not suitable for running. He ran all the way out of breath and almost felt like he was about to die, but he couldn't care about it anymore. After registering at the reception desk on the first floor, he staggered and ran over. Realizing that he had just missed the elevator, he turned his head to look at the stairs, and Joseph could only helplessly step forward again.

When Joseph climbed to the fifth floor, it was already five minutes later, and he saw Hugo standing in the middle of the corridor, his hands on his hips, gasping for breath, and Joseph standing at the safety exit, breathing heavily, otherwise he would have To suspect that your lungs can burn directly.

Hugo heard the sound behind him, turned his head, and said helplessly, "No one."

"What... what..." Joseph felt that he was about to lose his breath, and looked at Hugo with a look of surprise, and then realized that he forgot to breathe, and couldn't help gasping more quickly.

"There is no one, the conference room is empty." Hugo was much better. Although he was gasping for breath, he looked very energetic and didn't seem to sweat at all. "I asked the secretary and she said Arnold had left."

"What?" Joseph didn't seem to know what to say when he said this. He wanted to take a few steps forward, but found that he was breathing too much, sweating like a waterfall, and he couldn't help leaning on the side On the wall, "You, you ask the secretary to call Arnold." Joseph kept swallowing and adjusting his breathing. The effect of running some time ago was finally reflected, although he only insisted on it for a week, "If Maybe, you talk to Arnold directly..."

Hugo looked at Joseph's appearance, and said worriedly, "You should really continue to run." Then he turned and walked to the next office, looking for the secretary.

Joseph stood up straight and slowly paced towards the office. When he reached the door, he saw Hugo turn around and shrug helplessly at him, his eyes revealing the meaning of "Let's go out and talk about it", Joseph did not go in either.

After Hugo came out, he said with a gloomy expression, "Arnold explained to the secretary before he left. After he said I arrived, he told me that he didn't like people being late, because he thought it was one of the basic elements of an actor." The secretary's speech has been very tactful. Hugo can imagine that Arnold's speech is probably even more unpleasant. "The secretary also said that there is no need to make a phone call, because Arnold forbids this from happening."

In short: it's over.

Joseph bent down in chagrin, "Oh, God." Even though he knew that Anthony's business had to be dealt with, so it seemed that being late was inevitable, but Joseph was still angry. If he wasn't so forgetful, at least he could give Arnold a phone call to explain it beforehand, so that even if the audition didn't go away, the relationship wouldn't go downhill.

Hugo saw Joseph's expression and knew that he was in a cycle of regret again, so he patted Joseph on the shoulder, "Hey, man, this is over, there's no need to keep struggling, I think It's okay to miss it, anyway, that role is not suitable for me in the first place."

Joseph stood up straight and looked at Hugo speechlessly, "Are you serious?"

"Of course not, I just said it to comfort you." Hugo shrugged, causing Joseph to laugh angrily and sneer, Hugo said, "I'm forgetful enough, you can't be so forgetful anymore, Take it as a lesson. This time it's a lesson in an inappropriate role, and hopefully I won't miss Indiana Jones next time."

Hugo's straightforwardness made Joseph slow down. He looked at Hugo helplessly and wanted to say something, but in the end he shook his head and laughed.

Hugo walked towards the elevator, "So, you don't have any other scripts?"

Joseph also dragged his footsteps behind him, reluctantly glanced at the secretary's office again, made up his mind to go back to the car, took out his mobile phone and called Arnold Copelson. After retracting his gaze, he looked at Hugo, "Are you in a hurry now? You weren't nervous at all when you were on vacation."

"Uh...what's for lunch?" Hugo's voice disappeared in the elevator along with the footsteps of two people.
