237 - Drunk

As the lights of the theater were all gone, the buzzing chat gradually became smaller, and Naomi Watts and Todd McCarthy also ended the brief exchange and turned their attention to the curtain.

Regardless of whether Wayne is a bad thing or not, this year is the third movie he has watched seriously.

1994 was definitely the most harvest year in Hollywood. Many times, the crowd of bad movies was the theme of the media's inventory at the end of the year. However, as soon as October this year entered, some media could not wait to publish their opinions. It turned out that the crowd of good movies was even more sad.

Not only the media, but also those film critics who think they represent professionals, think that this year's Oscar must be full of regrets, because there are too many good movies, but only one award can be awarded.

Among the media and film critics, this year is definitely the golden year for films. Whether it is commercial or artistic films, it seems to be constantly appearing like a blowout this year.

From "Forrest Gump", "Shawshank Redemption", to "The True Lies", "The Eyebrow Chasing", "Life and Death", and "The Defeat" that made Kim Carrey "Ah Dai and Agua", "The Disguised Witness", and even the animated feature films have appeared the immortal "The Lion King".

Of course, we have to mention the "The Joker" which is creating miracles, and the newly released "Pulp Novel".

"Pulp Novel" is definitely one of the Oscars' regrets, but fortunately, this film has won the Palme d'Or, which also made people full of curiosity before the film was released.

"Damn it, I know." Naomi Watts held Wayne's arm, and after more than half of the film was screened, she couldn't help but turn her head and complained in a low voice:

"Sometimes I feel that I can't appreciate your film, but I didn't expect it to be even more overwhelming! This kind of film is too unfriendly to women, excessively violent, vulgar, superficial, and has to say so many nonsense lines?"

Wayne took his eyes off the big screen, stretched out his finger, put it in front of his mouth and "shhhh". Now it is the premiere of the film, and it will be very embarrassing to hear this woman's remarks.

I believe that it is not only Naomi Watts who has this feeling. Most of the female audiences in the theater must think that this movie is like they are sick and cannot understand it.

There is no way, movies have audiences and also have thresholds for viewing. On the contrary, most men watch them with relish.

"I have the opposite of your opinion." Wayne put his head close to her ear and explained softly. "This is the representative work of nonlinear narratives in all the movies I have seen. The structure is exquisite and meaningful, and precisely those dialogues are also wonderful.

Pay attention to Nami. Everyone in the film has more or less beautiful qualities, but they inevitably move towards darkness and confusion. The story is not divided into beginning and end, and the structure is complementary.

Also, the beginning and the end will be connected, which is equivalent to implying that the audience is that plots similar to those in the film in reality always happen and never stops. This is a closed loop.”

The video has slowly come to the end, and Wayne explains it casually, and Naomi Watts is watching him in a daze, but when the video ends, she still asks in an inexplicable tone:

"This thing is really as good as you said? Why can't I appreciate it at all? It feels more difficult to understand than what you took."

This question made Wayne feel so angry that he explained the little half of the movie to this silly woman, and it was a waste of effort.

He rolled his eyes, pulled Naomi Watts up, and accompanied the audience to applause the main creative team.

After watching the whole movie, not only the women around him heard his commentary, but also the critic Todd McCarthy also kept listening secretly.

When the audience started queuing up to leave, the famous Los Angeles film critic shook hands with Wayne with a smile and whispered: "Believe me, Wayne, a very wonderful video analysis. You are not only a talented producer, director, project initiator, but also the talent to become a film critic."

After saying that, he walked out of the audience, leaving two embarrassed people behind. Todd McCarthy thought he praised Wayne, but after he turned around and left, he attracted a whimper from the other party.

In his opinion, it is definitely not a compliment to say that he has the talent of a film critic. He has no good feelings for this group and believes from the bottom of his heart that this group will be eliminated sooner or later.

After almost everyone left, Wayne brought Naomi Watts to the front of the big screen and congratulated the creative team.

The first one is Quentin Tarantino, this genius "rogue", seems to have an inexplicable favor for him.

"A very wonderful masterpiece, with a very clever ring structure and a multi-angle narrative technique, which is simply a genius way."

Like those people in front, Wayne hugged the director of the film and said some good things that everyone loves to hear. "I wish the film a lot again!"

"Thank you, Wayne."

After the two of them finished their hugs, Quentin Tarantino was very excited and grinned and said, "We can talk more when we have time, but unfortunately you are too busy at work. After working in "Pulp Novel", I will visit your class."

"No problem." Wayne nodded happily.

In addition to being the director of the movie, this is also a very interesting person. It is also very good to make friends. Moreover, from the perspective of filming, they should be able to chat with each other.

"Congratulations, Uma, a very wonderful performance!"

"Thank you, Wayne."

After shaking hands with several main creators one by one, Naomi Watts and he was taken by the staff to the hotel next to the theater to attend a regular cocktail party.

Just like most parties in Hollywood, people are holding champagne and giving business cards politely. There are also many agents who are constantly selling with their clients.

More common are some men and women in the circle who eat two glasses of wine and walk into the elevator with their arms around.

Wayne and Naomi Watts sat in the corner, watching everything busy in the banquet hall.

"When will we go back? I remember you don't like this atmosphere." The Australian beauty watched a movie she didn't like and was not interested in everything at the cocktail party.

She knew better than anyone else that as long as she didn't make fatal mistakes, she would never be able to use that kind of social interaction. The one sitting beside her is one of the best producers in this circle, and she wouldn't have to make a fuss about anyone.

"Okay, you go and have a walk around first. I'll talk to the African American for a few words, and then we'll go back."

Seeing Harvey Weinstein coming over with Samuel Jackson, he stood up with champagne, walked to the fat man, shook hands with the black actor.

"Director Greenberg, my agent talked to me about your invitation." Samuel Jackson held the glass and touched Wayne, and then said: "Of course it's my honor. I can audition at any time."

"This character is not paid well!"

Wayne took a sip of champagne. "Or the pay for all characters is not high, even the hero is the same. If you can accept it, take the agent with you tomorrow and go to the studio to sign a contract."

Samuel Jackson looked surprised. “Don’t audition need?”

"Hey, standing in front of you, but Wayne Greenberg!" Harvey Weinstein teased: "Of course he can make the decision on his project. This is a very good opportunity, Samuel."

The black actor suddenly reacted. This was different from other Hollywood directors. This young man was still a producer. He was the kind of big director who could definitely dominate everything. The crew and producers would definitely no one questioned his decision.

"No problem, Director Greenberg, ended the short-term promotion, I will start filming and advance group."

"Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation." Wayne picked up the wine glass, touched him again, and at the same time he also touched the fat man Harvey, and drank the champagne in his glass in one sip.

After the brief exchange ended, when he turned back to find Naomi Watts, the woman disappeared.

Sitting back to the seat just now, Wayne continued to look at the men and women at the cocktail party bored. From time to time, some agents would come with clients, and the table would be filled with business cards.

He raised his hand and looked at the time. He wondered why Naomi Watts hadn't come back yet.

"Mr. Greenberg, what can help you?"

A female waiter saw him wavering, walked over with a tray full of wine, bent down and asked politely.

Wayne said, "Sorry, did you see where Ms. Naomi Watts went?"

"I haven't seen her come back in the bathroom about twenty minutes ago."

"OK, thanks."

After saying that, Wayne stood up and buttoned his suit, preparing to see what was going on. Naomi Watts wanted to go back just now, so why didn't hesitate?

"fxxk, damn it, I've said it many times, I have no interest in you, please get out of the way!"

"Maybe we can talk about it in another place, believe me, you will be interested in another place..."

As he walked through the banquet hall, before he could get close to the bathroom, he heard a slight quarrel, and he heard it was Naomi Watts's voice, and walked a few steps and entered the bathroom at the corner of the corridor.

This is very strange. Almost everyone saw the two of them coming together. Normally, no one would harass his female companion.

But when he approached, he probably understood what was going on. This was a middle-aged white man. He probably drank a lot of wine and leaned against the wall, blocking Naomi Watts's road.

He was muttering and obviously he was not very clear-headed. He was just a drunk.

"Wayne."

Naomi Watts called out in surprise when he saw him coming over, which also attracted the attention of the middle-aged man. At this time, the Australian beauty rushed over and hugged his arm.

"This person has drunk too much and has been pestering me. There are no waiters nearby..."
