American fame and fortune

Chapter 179 Pain and Anger

At the beginning of the movie, there is a documentary-like nuclear explosion scene. With the yellowed paper as the background of the screen, many so-called top-secret information are revealed.

When the subtitles of the main cast and crew flashed, a team of scientific research personnel wearing protective clothing was suddenly attacked and wiped out.

Then came the beginning of a typical American horror movie. The family went on a trip and chose to drive through Nevada.

All the dialogue and scenes highlight the profession and character of the main character, Bob, a physical education teacher at a certain school who teaches things like baseball, and the young father.

He has a deep love for his family. For the sake of his children and his wife, he has endured the conservative, stubborn and aggressive father-in-law time and time again.

Every time the two had a dispute and his wife came to act as a peacemaker, Bob would choose to take a step back for his wife's sake.

For the sake of love and family, at least the audience will not feel disgusted with this character.

So, after filling up at the gas station, Bob locked himself in the RV to babysit the kids while the father-in-law chose a side road.

The car was punctured and the father-in-law chose to go back to the gas station for help. Bob, as a young man, went to explore the unknown road ahead.

The road is cut off by a huge crater, and the deformed killer officially debuts.

Bob was attacked suddenly and was attacked by two murderers. After paying the price of cutting off his fingers, he killed the murderers.

When he bandaged the wound, picked up the baseball bat and was about to return to the RV, his father-in-law was tied to a tree and set on fire, his mother-in-law and wife were killed, his sister-in-law and brother-in-law were injured, and the child was taken away.

Under the pain and anger, the one-person-one-stick-one-dog mode officially started.

The hero and the deformed killer abuse each other.

With the help of Gouzi and the deformed girl, the hero kills the enemy and saves the child.

In the third row of the auditorium, watching the scarred male protagonist walk out of the abandoned town with the child in his arms, film critic Kenneth Turan said: "After so many years, Wes Craven has finally made some progress."

Todd McCarthy nods: "He incorporated more action into the film."

Another film critic Courtney Howard said: "This model is a bit interesting. One person and one dog, struggling to survive, and then fighting to survive."

McCarthy asked, "What do you guys think of the film?"

"It didn't deviate from the routine of traditional horror films." Turan said simply: "But the actor's acting skills are good. Have you noticed that he played the sadness and anger of losing a loved one very well."

Courtney continued: "Don't you think that in the final duel between him and the killers, he looked more like a pervert?"

McCarthy recalled it carefully, as if it had some meaning.

But Turan doesn't think so: "You guys think about it after substituting in. At the beginning of the film, the hero loves his wife and children so much. When he saw his wife was killed and his children were robbed, what would he do? If you have his ability , what will you do again?"

McCass has kids: 'I'd be even crazier than him'

Courtney nodded: "So, the actor used this method to show the greatness of fatherly love."

Turan said: "Martin Davis is a good actor, much better than the idiots in Craven's most successful series, A Nightmare on Elm Street and Scream."

The end credits appeared at this time, and the audience stood up and applauded, and several film critics also stood up and applauded.

It's not a good movie, but it's certainly not a bad movie.

Vaughan next to him is from Cinema Score, a professional market evaluation agency specializing in word-of-mouth among audiences, and has a keen insight into the film market.

Vaughn feels that this film is one of Craven's rare masterpieces in recent years. The leading actor's performance is very exciting, and the climax scene of one person, one dog, one stick at the end is amazing.

He has done so many articles on publicity and marketing, and the rumors about Martin and Anne's scandal are raging. Judging from his years of experience in the first-line market, the market response of this film is not bad.

Vaughan took out his mobile phone and sent a group text message, and his men were ready.

Amid the applause, Ajia and Martin took the main cast and crew to the stage for the curtain call.

Suddenly, there was a chaotic scream in the auditorium: "Martin, I love you!"

There were only two or three at first, and then more Martin's name.

Martin's role in this film is really brilliant, especially his love for his wife and children.

As deep as love is, how ruthless you will be when facing a murderer.

No audience was disgusted by Martin's almost perverted killing, but there was a kind of hearty joy.

The charm of the characters flourishes and spreads to the actors.

The movie fans were very excited for a while. Jessica and Emily looked at each other. With excellent movies and characters as the basis, their task is very simple to complete.

The so-called momentum is all created.

Martin's reputation and appeal are not enough at present, and building momentum has become a necessary option.

Faced with the enthusiasm of fans, Martin had to stand up, waved, bowed, and called a curtain call.

Once people's enthusiasm is aroused, it is difficult to dissipate immediately.

Martin can only call the curtain again and again.

The other actors in the crew looked at Martin enviously, but there was nothing they could do.

Absolute leading actor, with capital into the crew, concurrently as the production manager, one of the three giants with the most power in the crew, and deeply involved in publicity and marketing.

It's more than one level behind.

In the media booth, a reporter exclaimed: "Looking at the atmosphere in the theater, he looks like a superstar."

The reporter next to him said: "This movie is a success, and Martin Davis' momentum is unstoppable!"

The former agrees: "He and Anne Hathaway are ridiculed by many people as strong women and weak men, and they may soon become strong men and weak women."

Finally, the applause dissipated.

The mood of the fans gradually calmed down.

After the director of the crew and the actor said a few words of thanks, the premiere ended in an orderly manner.

Back in the lounge, many guests came to congratulate them one by one.

Angelina Jolie hugged Martin lightly and said with a smile: "Your performance is crazy and full of charm. I am very much looking forward to acting with you."

Martin responded with a smile: "I also look forward to working with you."

The atmosphere in the lounge was excellent, and Anne was by Martin's side, watching Martin become one of the central figures.

She has also enjoyed something like this, which can be called a harbinger of success.

Kenneth Turan, the number one film critic of the "Los Angeles Times", came over, greeted Martin and Anne, and said to Martin: "I have been in the industry for more than 30 years and have reviewed thousands of movies. I find your acting skills are very explosive. But the role itself limits what you can do, maybe you should try a more layered role.”

Martin looked respectful: "Thank you for your pertinent advice. Before, I had no choice but to play whatever I encountered. If I had a choice in the future, I would definitely choose a more complicated role to hone my acting skills."

Turan was quite relieved when the other party listened to his words: "Martin, you are very talented, don't waste this talent, I hope you can become the new Daniel Day-Lewis or Sean Penn in the future."

Martin nodded and said, "I will work hard."

Turan smiled and said goodbye to return to the circle of media critics.

Todd McCarthy asked: "How is it? Doesn't look like a young man."

Turan said: "A very humble young man who listens to advice and has such a great talent. I hope he doesn't disappoint like Tom Cruise."

This group of critics was the first to leave the lounge, ready to go back to catch up on the manuscript.

The crew immediately sent someone to send them off, and at the same time each sent a handbag.

At the same time, the audience left the venue one after another.

Vaughn from Cinema Score called several of his men and got into the large commercial vehicle together.

"How did the audience react?" he asked.

The assistant next to him made preliminary statistics: "Most people scored A or A-, and there were relatively few A+ or B grades. On average, they should be A."

"It's pretty cool that a horror movie can do that," Vaughan said.

The assistant added: "Today's premiere, too many viewers are supporters of Martin or Craven, so the score will naturally be higher."

Of course Vaughn understands this: "According to the past rules, after it is fully released in North America, the score may be A or A-, and the box office in the first week is not bad."

In the theater, the premiere guests are also leaving one after another.

Mene found Martin: "Boss, I'm going to go." He glanced at Annie: "Do you want me to help attract the firepower?"

"No need." During the movie promotion period, Martin now needs high exposure. Seeing Mene alone, he asked curiously, "Where's Paris?"

Mene looked complicated: "She wants to go with me and is willing to pay, but I dare not let her follow."

"There's no harm in being cautious," Martin said.

"Here in the theater, I can't refuse what she offers." Mene expressed his worries: "But in a secluded place, what if she finds someone to attack me? I'm not Lao Bu, and it will be over by then."

Martin glanced at the time: "Go back early."

Seeing Menet leaving the theater, Annie said, "Where are you going tonight?"

Martin said: "I'm a poor man now, and I can only go to the princess's residence."

Annie thought Martin was joking, and took his arm and walked out: "Then you will be a poor ghost, and I will take care of you."

Why does this line sound familiar? Martin thought for a moment, wasn't that what he used to say to Louise?

The two walked out of the theater gate, and a large number of reporters and paparazzi gathered around to take pictures.

A number of security personnel stopped them. Martin escorted Anne to the car, opened the door to let his female partner get in the car, and he closed the door and said to Bruce: "Old Bu, go to the Hilton Hotel."

Bruce was not driving fast, and there were at least a dozen paparazzi driving and riding motorcycles behind him. If they drove too fast, they were prone to danger.

Under Martin's words and deeds, Bruce will also put himself in other people's shoes.

A group of paparazzi chased to the Hilton Hotel.

The Mercedes-Benz stopped in front of the door, and Martin and Annie entered the hotel. The two of them were in an intimate posture, and they would not come out again tonight.

The other paparazzi left one after another, and Jody waited patiently for a while.

Not long after, someone came over from the parking lot and waved at her.

Jody hurried over to get in the car and found that it was a young girl.

Jessica took the envelope and handed it to Jody: "Martin is going to propose to Anne, this is a plan."

Jody opened the envelope and flipped through it quickly: "I know how to write."
