MTL - Best Actor-Chapter 84 Premiere (1)
Sean took a deep breath, and after trying his best to get the hero of "Genius Ripley" in an almost miraculous way, he will finally usher in the final result. But at this moment, my heart is extraordinarily calm, and all the worries and tensions from the past have been swept away, as long as I think of Affleck's face for a few days.
Yes, as long as you do your job well and try your best to do your job well, even failure is acceptable. This has always been his belief. You can’t make everyone like you, and the world is not about how much you pay for what you give in return, so it’s okay to be nervous and worried a little bit, there’s no need to pay too much attention, trust your intuition.
As for Affleck's ridicule and contempt, Sean didn't take it to heart at all, even though the other party was already well-known in Hollywood and won the Oscar for Best Screenplay with his friends. In essence, Affleck is not much different from the Lyman Vilsa that he met on the set of "Everybody Loves Raymond", he is just a little guy, and Sean is really just now A small person, although he had an affair with Gwyneth, and although he was constantly questioned by the media for his role as the male lead of "The Genius Ripley", he still doesn't have many connections and popularity in Hollywood.
So it's no wonder they look at him in that way. As mentioned above, it doesn't mean that if you pay, there will be a reward, and they are not interested in dealing with small people. It's just that many things don't know the outcome until the last minute.
Click, open the door, Sean came to the living room, Galen and Frederick, who had been waiting here, immediately stood up together.
"Look, it fits quite well, it's quite handsome, isn't it?" The manager in a straight suit smiled and patted his shoulders, then took a deep breath: "Are you ready?"
En didn't speak, looked at his best friend, and Galen, who was also dressed in a suit, gave a thumbs up.
"Come on, go and earn our honor!" Sean said.
…
The premiere location is not on the Walk of Fame, nor at the Chinese Theater. Although it is one of the most famous theaters in Hollywood, Miramax's choice of spotlight theater is also good. This cinema is affiliated to the Pacific Cinema Line, which once represented a trendy force in the development of films, and many films have premiered here.
Intimacy was made in a deeper place, and Sean frowned and looked back slightly, with an indescribable emotion. The overall tone is dim and yellow, giving people a feeling of sunset, but it fits the theme very well.
Reporters crowded in front of the fence, holding cameras high and quickly snapping the shutters of the stars on the red carpet, and some fans held up homemade signs and screamed at their favorite idols.
Sean came a little late, and when he got out of the car, the street lights were already quite bright. There was no flashing light as expected. The reporters on both sides of the fence seemed to focus on Jude Law who was about to reach the door. They didn't seem to recognize this young man who just got off the bus. person to interview.
Since getting in the car, the agent kept instilling some precautions in Sean, such as what traps to be careful of when reporters ask questions, such as what kind of gesture to make in front of the camera suitable and so on. Well, that's a good thing, but the problem is that he said these things a few days ago, and he always says a thing or two whenever he has time, plus the one who clenched his fists from time to time, or put the back of his hand to his mouth It looks like he is biting inside, and if you think about it a little, you know that this guy is actually nervous.
Understandable, after all, this is Sean's first work as a male lead, and there has never been anyone in Hollywood like him. He has only been an actor for less than half a year, and he has acted as a male lead in the hands of an A-level director. Because of this, most reporters, media, and film critics are not very optimistic about him, and agents have to share a lot of this huge pressure.
He was still optimistic at first, but as the premiere date approached, he would take a few seconds of madness from time to time. Although he is calm most of the time, when it comes to related things, he can't keep his mouth shut. Compared to Sean's previous nervousness and worry, it was nothing.
So, in the car, Sean had to repeatedly express that he could cope: "When I encounter a question that is really difficult to answer, I will tell him directly. Unfortunately, there is no comment on these."
"But they can write in the report that you are speechless in the face of such and such problems!" Frederick was still very worried.
"Then it's up to you, you are by your side, you can always think of a way to divert the conversation, right?" Sean kicked the ball back unceremoniously.
Although I was nervous for a long time, I was chased around by reporters after the scandal broke out. I didn't expect that it really appeared in front of them but no one paid attention. I really don't know whether to cry or laugh.
"Do you think it works well or not?" Frederick gave Galen a roll of eyes.
However, this situation did not last long, Jude discovered Sean first, who was about to enter the theater, he immediately shouted, and then walked straight over. The surrounding reporters were stunned for about half a minute, and then someone called out, "That's Sean Tang." Suddenly, all the long guns and short guns were aimed at him.
For many reporters, every time they recall the scandal more than a month ago, they are somewhat unhappy. A little-known actor can't be found anywhere, so that The photos used in the report were either taken secretly that night or in the archives that could be found. So, imagine what they'll do when they finally catch him on the red carpet.
"You did it on purpose, Jude?" Hug with Jude, and then asked in a low voice, facing the smiling Sean of the reporter who took the photo.
"Why, I saw a friend come to say hello, is there any problem?" Jude, who also let reporters take pictures, pretended to be crazy.
"You were about to go in, but after seeing me, not only did you come out again, but also greeted loudly, just because you were worried that the reporter didn't see me, so let me go into the theater easily?" Sean snorted softly.
"It's so sad that you think I have bad intentions." Jude sighed, looking very disappointed.
"No, Jude," Shawn shook his head slightly, with a hint of ridicule in his tone, "I just wanted to tell you, even if you don't do that, these guys will find out mine."
Jude turned his head and coughed lightly, and the reporters seemed to be annotating his remarks, and called "Mr. Tang" and "Mr. Tang" even louder When he got up, there was even a guy who stepped on the fence with his feet and almost stretched out half of his body, eager to put the microphone into Sean's mouth.
So, accidentally, his foot slipped, and he fell down amid the exclamations of everyone. Fortunately, Sean kept watching, and immediately bent his knees and reached out to support him.
"Be careful, man, don't get hurt at work," he said.
"If you had come earlier and answered my question, I wouldn't be like this, right?" The reporter, who managed to stand still, immediately handed the microphone to him again, hehe laughing with a hopeful look.
Sean couldn't help but want to laugh, for this reporter who was a little fat and sweaty but didn't want to give up, he really didn't feel any bad feelings: "Okay, okay, you want to ask What... Alexander Grant?"
"We all know that you only started acting as an actor in September last year. How did you get the lead actor in "The Genius Ripley"." The guy said quickly, almost paying close attention to every point per second.
"Well, frankly speaking, I don't know," Sean made a serious look, "I just did what I should do, such as reading the original novel carefully and understanding the characters seriously He expressed his emotions during the audition, and told him his thoughts completely when talking to Mr. Minghella. I think that Mr. Minghella would make such a choice, maybe somewhere moved him. "
"What do you think of the movie "The Genius Ripley"?" Grant asked immediately.
"I believe this will be a great movie, Mr. Minghella is very human and very good at manipulating the film. We also have many great actors, such as Philip Seymour Hoffman , Gwyneth Paltrow, Jack Davenport and...Cate Blanchett and Jude Law," Sean said, bringing back Judra who was ready to leave, " I learned a lot from them and it made me grow up quickly, like Jude, who made more sacrifices than me in the movie. Also, we were cold to each other at first, but as we shot Go deep and become friends instead.”
"Yeah," Jude rolled his eyes, "he is often pushed out as a scapegoat friend."
Even though they knew it was a joke, the reporters were excited and kept pressing the shutter.
"Are you still dating Ms. Paltrow, Mr. Tang?" a reporter asked at the chance.
"We have clarified this matter, so it is pointless to ask, we are just friends, I just invited her to dinner and sent her home as a courtesy. ' Sean replied calmly.
But this obviously could not satisfy the reporters. They immediately started an article around this issue. Although Sean frowned, it was a good correspondence.
Then, a reporter with twinkling eyes interjected: "I heard that director Anthony Minghella had contacted many actors for the male lead of "The Genius Ripley" before. Accidentally chose you and clashed with Harvey Weinstein about it, is there any such thing?"
Sean was stunned for a moment, and was about to answer when Frederick stretched his hand from the side, blocked the microphone and said with a smile: "What kind of rumors are there, haha , Okay, we're going in, sorry about that."
Speaking, the hand underneath secretly pulled Sean into a smile. Although he didn't understand, he ignored the reporter's voice for the first time, and walked to the theater with Frederick. That's it for the first stage of the premiere.
