    Hotel.  Jean Renoir looked at the check for two hundred thousand dollars and was stunned.  "Don't be stunned, Jean, come on, sign, and from today on you will be a member of Legendary Film Company." Nicholas Schenke handed the contract to Jean Renoir.  "Is this true?" Jean Renoir looked at the one-page contract and didn't believe his eyes at all.  "Completely delegate power. You have complete rights to direct and edit. From the script to the actors, you can completely make the decision. I only need to provide the money." Victor smiled.  Nicolas Schenker shook his head and looked at Renoir: "Jean, I guess no one in this world, except our legendary film company, will sign such a contract with you." Jean Renoir nodded,  He solemnly signed his name.  Soon, the French film master who had experienced ups and downs moved from a small hotel to the headquarters of Legendary Film Company, becoming the second director officially signed by Legendary Film Company.  "Victor, now that you got your wish, I think I should say something." Jean Renoir looked at Victor: "I thought you had some conspiracy before, but after this time, I finally figured it out.  You are indeed very different from other Hollywood filmmakers. But I am worried. "What are you worried about?" Victor said.  Jean Renoir chuckled: "I make art films, but that doesn't mean I'm an idiot. For a director, he doesn't have to be afraid of movies he doesn't like. He can do other things to make a living, but  For a film company, it is impossible to survive if it only values ??art and ignores business. After all, film is an art that costs a lot of money." Jean Renoir's heartfelt words moved Victor very much.  "Let, don't worry about these things. Right now, Legend Film Company has a movie being shot, and another movie is being prepared. I have a merciless request. I didn't know you" "Say, just say it. You are  Boss." Jean Renoir was a little nervous because he didn't know what Victor wanted to do.  "This is my own movie. Legend Film Company is very small and has very few people, especially when two movies are started at the same time" "I think I understand." Jean Renoir made it clear: "Yours  You mean to let me be your photographer, right?" Nicholas next to him stared at Victor with a black line on his head.  Victor¡¯s proposal did inadvertently touch on some taboos in this industry.  In movies, especially in Europe.  The director's status is extremely prominent and he is completely the core of the crew, while the photographer's status is obviously much lower than that of the director.  Therefore, for a film practitioner.  Being promoted from a photographer to a director is obviously an improvement. It is a joy to let a photographer become a director. If a director becomes a photographer, it will obviously be unbearable for many people.  Victor asked Renoir, a film master, to be a photographer.  It has to be said that this is a thoughtless thing.  "Yes." Victor stared at Jean Renoir sincerely: "Jean, I have been thinking about this movie for a long time. When I met you, especially when I saw your paintings, I decided that this movie should  I want you to handle the style of the images. For this movie, I need images that are changing, layered, and even extraordinarily jumpy in some cases. I¡¯m afraid there are few people in Hollywood who can match you.¡±  "Hahaha." Jean Renoir laughed: "If another person told me this, I would definitely hit him with an uppercut. To be honest, in terms of photography, I have always felt that my level is higher than that of my director. Let me  It¡¯s okay to be a photographer, but the key is, you have to show me the script. If I¡¯m not satisfied with the script, I won¡¯t agree to it. ¡°Victor handed over the script for ¡°The Shawshank Redemption.¡±  An hour later, Jean Renoir put down the script.  He stood up without saying a word and walked out.  Nicolas and Victor looked at each other doubtfully, wondering what Jean Renoir meant.  "Don't be stunned, ask someone to find a camera for me. I think I have to quickly get familiar with the machine here in the United States. I hope it is the same as the previous machine" Jean Renoir gestured to Victor: "I have a  I have a hunch that being able to participate in this movie may make me more proud than the previous movies I directed.¡± Nicholas and Victor couldn¡¯t help laughing.  After Jean Renoir went out to do some work, Victor kicked Nicholas: "Nicolas, I remember that besides Jean Renoir, you seem to have someone else to recommend to me, right?" "To be precise, it's an actor. An actress.  .??Nicholas looks mean.  "Actress!?" Victor was overjoyed: "Real or fake!?" For Legend Film Company, there is no shortage of directors now. Victor and Zinerman are both available, as are photographers, including Nicholas and Boris.  , the male actors are okay, Gregory Peck is now the mainstay, but the actresses are really miserable, the only one who can stand out is Marilyn Monroe, but Monroe is too young, and the roles that she can participate in are obviously  Also extremely restricted.  Being able to find an actress, and an actress with potential, is what Victor dreams of.  "Who is it? From Europe?" Victor grabbed Nicholas.  "Don't even think about it in Europe. Anyone with potential, especially young girls, has already been divided up by the major film companies. The rest, believe me, there are no good ones." Nicholas smiled:  "You've seen this person, he's from Hollywood." "From Hollywood? I've seen him before?" "Yes. Joan Fontaine." "Joan Fontaine!?" Victor was really surprised.  This woman is a unique legend in Hollywood.  In the history of Hollywood, especially in the golden age, there are too many actresses who shine!  This kind of light is enough to eclipse many stars of his generation.  Vivien Leigh, Garbo, Taylor, Pickford, etc., each of them is a god-like existence, but the light of these superstars can never cover up a woman named Joan Fontaine.  Compared with these stars, Joan Fontaine may not be as famous as them. Even in terms of role interpretation, she has played rigorous, shy, and suspicious female characters almost all her life. However, with her superb acting skills, she completely makes this kind of woman  In every movie, it's so natural and full of flesh and blood.  This is a very talented actress, excellent in all aspects. She is beautiful and connotative, elegant, noble and charming. For her, maybe the reason why she has not been able to go very far in film and television in history is because of opportunities.  rather than himself.  "Isn't this Joan Fontaine already signed?" Victor asked doubtfully.
