Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The early completion of "No Country for Old Men" has made Legendary Film Company extremely busy.  On the one hand, it is the later stage of the film.  This guy Zinerman is a director for the first time, but he is saving money for Legend Electronic Music Company. The film he shoots has a film ratio of only 1:5. Compared with when Victor shot "This Killer Isn't Too Cold"  1:10, much less footage.  But the quality is nothing to say.  For a two-hour movie, the rough time is 10 hours, and the amount of work is not small. Fortunately, after Victor discussed with a group of people, they adopted the old method: Victor, Zineman, and Jean Renoir were the leaders.  Divide into three editing groups and start editing at the same time.  In this way, the speed is greatly improved.  "A week should be enough." Zinerman said.  "Nicholas, have you contacted Warner Bros. about the screening?" Victor asked Nicholas.  "The contract is signed, so there is no problem. But just now, Sam Warner called and said that the premiere of this movie would be best shown in their first theater." "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! This is Legend Film Company  The movie must be shown in our cinema, tell him, let them organize the premiere, and ask them to invite anyone who comes. Tell Sam Warner that the premiere was not lively and affected the box office.  That's what he suffered," Victor laughed.  "Okay, I guess he would do his best even if you didn't say anything. Haha. This is the advantage of being tied together." Nicholas said.  "Fred, after the editing is completed, you and Leo can go and do the other chores. I have to start preparing for "The Shawshank Redemption." Nicholas, you can contact Orson tomorrow by the way. Keep an eye on the No. 1 Prison in Los Angeles.  Now, let¡¯s start choosing the location.¡± Victor felt that everything was happening at once.  ¡­ The editing of ¡°No Country for Old Men¡± was repetitive, but fortunately there were many people, and it was all completed in more than a week.  Next, Victor left a series of matters such as screenings and premieres to Zinaman and others to handle, while he and Jean Renoir began to work on "The Shawshank Redemption".  The actors have been selected beforehand.  Gregory Peck and the old black man Duncan were locked in a dark room by Victor, and they were left to grind out the script. Renoir and Ronald Reagan were responsible for selecting the remaining extras, while Victor checked them.  .  Of all people.  Reagan was the most excited. It is estimated that this guy has never been an assistant director since he entered Hollywood. He was very busy and relied on his advantage as a B-movie star in Hollywood to quickly attract a group of people.  Victor was very pleased.  As for Victor himself, he began to go to Los Angeles Prison No. 1 with Orson Welles.  "Is your movie almost over?" Sitting in the car, Victor and Orson were smoking cigars and working together.  "The filming has been completed and is being edited now. It will probably collide with your "No Country for Old Men"." Orson Welles had a smirk on his face.  "Damn it, Orson, you are so unkind. Why did you get together with me during the schedule? Isn't this fratricide?" Victor cursed.  "This is not my opinion, this is the opinion of the top management of RKO. To be precise, it is what Hitchcock meant. He is now a popular figure in RKO. The boss has great trust in this British guy. What did he say? The boss  Just do whatever you want." Orson was also a little helpless.  "Hitchcock is so awesome?" Victor was very interested in Hitchcock's situation with his new owner.  "His movies do well at the box office. Moreover, that guy is really good at telling stories. Every movie he makes is both well-received and famous. What can be done? Not to mention the capitalists like RKO,  Even if I am the boss, I have to support him when I meet such a director." Orson looked like he had a toothache.  "I have a fucking grudge against this guy." Victor shook his head: "I have never provoked him. He seems to be very prejudiced against me." "You just don't care about this. Just work on your movie."  Orson smiled and said, "By the way, that little friend of yours, Monroe, can I return it to you after a while?" Victor smiled bitterly.  If Orson hadn't mentioned this matter, Victor would have forgotten that Monroe was still there.  "Pull her down, she is probably impatient to come back." Victor said.  Orson stared at Victor and said happily: "Don't feel good about yourself. Monroe is happy over there now. The little girl has now become the real pistachio of the crew, and the young people are stunned by her. Thunder and lightning  Boss Hua¡¯s son, by the way, and a group of his friends are all well-known young men on Wall Street, and they are all jealous of her. Victor, you, this little girl, will be obsessed with many people when you grow up. "  completelyWuyu: "If she is willing to stay there, you can watch it for me. Remember one thing, don't let her learn bad things." "That's no problem. During this period, she has made a lot of progress and is willing to endure hardships.  "I was born to be an actor." Orson had a very good impression of Monroe.  Los Angeles Jail No. 1.  Due to Orson Welles's deception, the prison agreed very simply. In addition, Victor gave a big red envelope of 20,000 US dollars. The warden was so happy that he told the prison staff, no matter what department they were in, to treat Victor  All were given the green light and the venue issue was successfully resolved.  After so much tossing and turning, by the time "The Shawshank Redemption" was almost ready, it was already early August.  August 2nd.  On this day, the weather in Hollywood was very good, the night sky was bright, and the moon was like water.  Los Angeles Cinema.  The first theater of Legend Film Company is brightly lit with bright neon lights.  The premiere of "No Country for Old Men" has officially begun.  "Compared to the embarrassment and confusion of the last time "This Killing Isn't Too Cold", this time it is completely different.  With the participation of Warner Bros. Pictures, especially Sam Warner himself, the entire premiere was really brilliant. ??????????????????????????????????¡¯Everyone with a good reputation in Hollywood, even if they don¡¯t give face to Victor, they have to give face to Sam Warner?  "Look at that kid, his fucking fox tail has jumped into the sky! Isn't he just being a dog under Sam Warner? He's so proud of himself!" On the red carpet, Chaplin faced the reporters' cameras.  With a smile on his face, he whispered to Teacher Dimir.  "There are not many down-to-earth people these days. This guy is not made for movies at all. I want to see what kind of character he will be in this movie." Demir is completely out of range for Victor.  On the steps, Victor, who was wearing a white suit, was in extraordinary spirits, and he and Zinaman welcomed the guests.  Among the eight major film companies in Hollywood, almost none of the top executives from MGM came. Clark Gable and a bunch of other people came, and they were all friends, so naturally they couldn't avoid exchanging pleasantries.  In addition, Paramount¡¯s Adolf Chuuk personally attended, leading a group of stars and directors under his command.  Towards Victor, Adolf Chuuk was very polite.  "Victor, you did a good job. You keep making good movies. It seems that our group is getting old." Chu Ke laughed.  This statement sounds so damn fake.  There weren't many senior executives from RKO, they were all a bunch of capitalists who didn't know anything about movies, and they didn't talk much to Victor, but Victor saw that Hitchcock was really comfortable among those capitalists. This British  He has a great way both in movies and as a person.  On the 20th Century Fox side, William Fox didn¡¯t come, but Daryl Zanuck came. This guy was very enthusiastic about Victor, probably because he saw Fox suffer a lot from Victor¡¯s failure in the past few times.  Other companies, Columbia is lukewarm, Universal and Laimer are a hundred times closer. As for Chaplin's United Artists, Chaplin is now the only polished commander, which is very bleak.  As for the directors and stars, they are all brilliant.  One of them made Victor¡¯s eyes light up.  Why is she here?
