One Thousand Five Hundred Fifty-Nine Barbie

The black multi-function family van is driving smoothly on the gravel road. The trivial sound from the friction between the tires and the gravel slaps the fenders, and a small sound collides in the ear. The view of the farmland is even more visible. It outlines a touch of tranquility, contrasting the car without any sound, and the boringness that spreads in the silence is quietly pervading.

Renly and Annie were still not very familiar with each other, and had never been in the same room before. The friendly atmosphere created by the polite remarks about "gravity" came to a temporary conclusion with the end of the scene. A little cold and boring, the invisible alienation makes the autumn colors in Canada more and more intense.

Annie noticed such a delicate atmosphere. As the master, she still looked a little embarrassed. She thought about it seriously and tried to make the atmosphere liven up again, but an idea came to her mind. She couldn't help lowering her eyes, laughing dumbly, and raised it again. When he looked at Renly, he was a little hesitant and hesitant, but he finally summoned up his courage, "If I say now that I have always wanted to be able to work with you, does that sound too hypocritical or flattering? Flattering courtesy?"

Renly raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh? Why do you say that?"

Such a response is not an ordinary way, is the subtext just admitting it?

Andy looked at Renly's expression a little bit, but found that Renly's face was calm and calm, without the slightest arrogance and arrogance, but not a bit of confidence and magnanimity, but it turned her thoughts into "the heart of a villain." The belly of a gentleman", which made her chuckle, and the reason that came to her lips changed her mouth, "because now everyone thinks that I am a perfectionist, and no mistakes are allowed, and social situations are more comprehensive."

This is self-deprecating.

At the Oscars ceremony at the beginning of this year, Annie successfully won the Best Supporting Actress Award. When she gave her acceptance speech, she performed perfectly in a graceful and dignified manner, without crying or incoherent, elegant and calm. The demeanor is really impressive.

But then Jennifer Lawrence, who won the Best Actress award, was embarrassed. First, I fell on stage; then, in her acceptance speech, she said, "Thank you Harvey for helping me knock down all my competitors." This remark caused an uproar, especially at the previous Golden Globe Awards, when Jennifer "Yo hoo, I beat Meryl" has been said once, and now it's even more tricky.

Harvey Weinstein's public relations methods for the awards season are undoubtedly top-notch; and in the battle for the best actress at the beginning of the year, Meryl Streep also occupied a place with the comedy film "Hope Springs" , but because of the poor overall strength of the work, he didn't even get an Oscar nomination in the end.

Jennifer's words have been deeply interpreted in different contexts.

on the one hand,

This is considered too arrogant and too sharp, it is simply defiant and lacks basic etiquette; on the other hand, Meryl and Harvey have a close personal relationship, and last year's "Iron Lady" successfully reached the top under the operation of Harvey Yes, Jennifer's words were also interpreted as "Harvey sacrificed Meryl, and then paved the way for Jennifer", and the interpretation on this basis became very intriguing.

This is really bad for Jennifer's prospects.

In order to cover up Jennifer's embarrassment, Harvey launched a powerful PR method and began to discredit Annie, believing that Annie's performance at the awards ceremony was too perfect, without a sense of reality, she was completely pretentious and hypocritical, and it looked as if it was carefully set Generally, like a Barbie doll at the mercy of others.

After a crisis PR battle, Jennifer and Annie's positions were reversed. Jennifer has since won a good reputation for being outspoken, while Annie has become the target of public criticism and is under increasing pressure. In the most discussed Hollywood actor vote in the United States, Annie's ranking has skyrocketed like a rocket, and now she is almost the same as Gwen. Nice-Paltrow is on par.

But in Renly's view, this is nothing more than a sacrificial sheep chosen by Harvey for his own benefit.

Objectively speaking, Annie's performance is worthy of recognition, because only when you are really involved can you understand the difficulty of maintaining a good manner.

What's more, the competition for Best Supporting Actress at the beginning of this year was the least suspenseful among all the awards. Annie led the whole awards season, and there were no surprises when the awards were announced that night. occur. If Anne pretended to be overwhelmed with tears of joy, she would be sullen.

The genius of Harvey Weinstein is that he is always able to seize weaknesses and loopholes, and then maximize his own interests.

Now that the boat is done, Annie is really helpless, after all, her PR agency is far less powerful than Harvey.

At this moment, Annie was frankly and playfully self-deprecating, and her relief could be seen, and Renly couldn't help chuckling, "I think you need to pay attention that the person you are talking to is the whole of Hollywood. The most intolerant perfectionist."

That was Renly himself.

Annie was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but outline a bright smile: isn't it, as a hereditary noble, Renly's interests and manners are the most impeccable; it's just that Renly's advantage is that he always It is the "perfect" that can use her own humor to resolve the scene and avoid the rigid and jerky situation, but Anne just lacks this sense of humor, which makes herself into a predicament.

A joke, the atmosphere in the car relaxed again.

Then, Renly said, "What was the original idea in your head?"

"What?" Annie's reaction speed couldn't keep up, her mind was full of question marks.

Renly didn't speak, just stared at Annie meaningfully.

Gradually, Annie was defeated, and she only felt that she had nowhere to hide. That feeling was extremely embarrassing, and then she understood what Renly meant: she said that just now, "I hope to cooperate with you" , but worried that it would be too polite and too dramatic, as if he was just flattering Renly. The original reason was not because of his perfectionism, but because...

"Now, the people who envy you in Hollywood are obviously more than admire and admire, but when everyone meets, the first reaction is always your youth, and then duplicitously say that they look forward to cooperating with you. This is Hollywood." Anne finally confided what she had just thought.

Renly lowered his jaw meaningfully, but did not speak.

Under those scorching gazes, Annie held her forehead a little annoyed and a little ashamed, and shook her head helplessly, "Renly, has anyone ever said that you are very good at embarrassing others?"

Renly shrugged slightly. "It's what I do best. So, I don't mind."

Annie opened her mouth slightly, "Ha!" She laughed lightly, the more she thought about it, the more she laughed, the more she thought about it, the happier she became, and then she couldn't hide it anymore, and laughed happily, "Hahaha." The bright and brisk smile made the whole car light up, as if you could smell the fragrance of jasmine flowers in the air.

Renly continued, "Personally, I've been looking forward to working with you."

Annie's eyes lit up.

But Renly added, "Not because of 'Les Miserables.'"

"Ouch." Annie covered her chest, showing a face full of injuries, but a faint smile was clearly surging in her eyes.

The film version and the stage version of "Les Miserables" were undoubtedly one of the hottest topics of discussion last year. They were widely compared in all aspects, including Anne's Fantine. Some people liked the film version, and some people liked the stage version. , each has its own merits and preferences.

Now Renly brought up this matter jokingly again, not to attack, but to adjust, and it was obvious that the atmosphere in the carriage had become more harmonious.

"It's because of 'Rachel's Wedding'." Renly finished his speech, "In fact, I like your performance in this work far more than 'Les Miserables' - not only Because of our competitive relationship."

Annie could hardly hide her astonishment and surprise. Although "Rachel's Wedding" earned Annie her first Oscar nomination, very few viewers have actually watched this work, and there are not many peers in the industry, no matter what. Whether Renly said what he just said just for courtesy or sincerity, it was a pleasant surprise that he was able to mention this work.

Although Annie wanted to continue the in-depth discussion, out of courtesy, she did not continue to ask: if the other party was just talking out of politeness, then she would continue the discussion perseveringly, and the scene would be embarrassing.

Unexpectedly, Renly took the initiative to say, "In the process of restraining and suppressing performance, the emotions presented by the details of the performance are more delicate and profound, and it is more worthwhile to dig and explore your character's heart, such as the scene at the dinner table. , the pain revealed by the loneliness and cold emotions, this is the soul of the whole film."

"Comparatively speaking, the performances that let go of hands and feet are too rough, and the emotions are relatively simple and extensive. Personally, I prefer a performance that is more detailed. Of course, it is more difficult and more test of skill." Renly told the truth. To be honest, although a bit sharp, it is sincere enough. For art creators, they need to learn to accept criticism—of course, criticism that has something to say.

Nathan, who was sitting next to him, was sweating constantly. Renly and Annie were not familiar with each other at all. They were so fierce when they first came up, and they were alluding to the dislike of the movie version of "Les Miserables". thing? What if two people tore their faces directly? Even if not, what should I do if the relationship between two people is stiff?

Nathan glanced at Annie's expression quietly, and the expression became very strange-

Is Annie angry? Or ashamed? Or is it difficult? Or is it helpless? Why can't he tell the difference?
