Chapter 260(1/2)
Taking advantage of the time, he returned to his residence in West Hollywood from Burbank, dressed up, and hurried to Beverly Hills.
In the end, I was late because I got lost.
At a quarter past eight, she finally found a mansion in Trousdale Manor. Rene Russo felt like she was going to cry, wondering if she would be turned away.
Fortunately, this didn't happen.
A small private party was being held in the mansion. Rene Russo was taken to the living room next to the living room of the villa, where a group of men and women were sitting on the sofa chatting. She glanced around, Martin Scorsese, Robert
·De Niro, Susan Sarandon, Jessica Lange...and of course, that nasty little man.
Although there are not many people, for ordinary movie fans, each one is like a thunderbolt.
So I can't help but feel a little inferior.
She knew everyone in this room, and these people probably didn't know her.
When Simon saw the woman appear, he stood up and walked over. Seeing Simon like this, everyone in the room stood up and looked towards the door.
"Here, let me introduce it to you."
The man came over and didn't mention her being late at all. He put his hand on her waist and pushed her forward. She took a few steps forward and listened to his introduction. She finally calmed down and talked to Scorsese one by one.
Waiting to say hello.
After a brief exchange of greetings, everyone sat down again.
Rene Russo sat quietly next to Simon, took a glass of red wine from the man, and listened to him chatting and laughing with Scorsese and others.
For more than an hour, I probably only remember that they talked about the new movie that Martin Scorsese was preparing, and De Niro's upcoming movie at the end of June, which seemed to be called "The Sixth Sense". She also noticed it recently
This movie, he wrote the script himself, but apart from the name, he doesn’t know exactly what it is about, so it seems to be very confidential.
This continued until around ten o'clock, when the small gathering gradually dispersed.
After seeing off Robert De Niro and Harvey Keitel, who were the last to leave together, Rene Russo discovered that she and he were the only two people left in the mansion without realizing it.
Simon took the woman back to the villa, noticed her doubts, and explained: "I have to complete some post-production work on "Batman" at Warner Bros. Studios recently. I don't want to travel too far back and forth to work, so I live here."
Although Daenerys Entertainment headquarters also has a dedicated post-production studio, it cannot meet all the technical needs of "Batman".
Naturally, the villa in Trousdale Manor was also a property under Simon's name. He found that he could no longer change his obsessive-compulsive habit of buying properties everywhere. Fortunately, his current net worth could fully afford it.
Simon also gradually felt that buying a house might be his hobby.
Rene Russo is a little frustrated.
She originally thought that he would not be able to succeed tonight, but when she saw him walking straight upstairs, she found that she had followed the stairs unknowingly. It was like facing a group of big names tonight, as long as she sat next to him
I felt very at ease, as if I had something to rely on.
When he arrived on the second floor, fortunately, he did not go directly to the bedroom, but to a study room.
Simon found a book and a script from the somewhat messy desk, turned around and handed it to Rene Russo, saying: "You have just met Martin. This is the original novel and script for his next movie. I
I feel that the role of heroine Helen Hill is very suitable for you. Take it back and prepare. Martin will arrange an audition for you next week. As long as your performance meets the standards, this role will be yours."
Rene Russo took over the script and novel and looked at the title "Goodfellas" on the cover of the script, feeling a little dazed.
Martin Scorsese.
Among the four major Hollywood directors, Steven Spielberg, Francis Ford Coppola, George Lucas and Martin Scorsese, the one who is most attractive to actors to work with is Scorsese.
.
Because compared to the other three directors, as a frequent winner of various film awards, Scorsese's films often give actors more room to perform and at the same time take their careers to a higher level. Robert De Niro, Harvey
Keitel, as well as Jodie Foster, who just won the Oscar for Best Actress this year, both made their names in Hollywood with Scorsese's films.
Thinking like this, Rene Russo became unconfident.
Do you really have the qualifications and ability to star in a Martin Scorsese movie?
Simon handed the manuscript to the woman, then sat down behind the desk, picked up a piece of information about Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and flipped through it. He noticed Rene Russo's silence and asked, "What's wrong?"
Rene Russo hesitated for a moment, then said: "I'm not sure I can play it well."
"That's why you have to prepare carefully," Simon said: "I have talked with Martin. His new film is a man's drama. Although Helen Hill is the first heroine, she is actually more of a supporting role, and her role is not
Not much. As long as your performance during the audition process is not too bad, you can get the role. Martin will continue to guide you during the filming process. In addition, I have read the script and there is actually room for improvement in the role of Helen Hill.
It's very big. If you are willing to put in enough energy, you may even get an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress in the future. Your career starts too late, and Hollywood will not give you many opportunities to hone your acting skills. Participating in Martin's movie is
It’s the best way to help you broaden your acting horizons and quickly get rid of the vase state.”
Rene Russo finally nodded after listening to Simon's patient explanation.
Then the study became quiet again.
He sat behind the desk and looked through the information.
She stood opposite with two manuscripts in her hands and watched him flip through the information.
Simonruo flipped through a dozen pages of HTML information without realizing it. After more than ten minutes, he looked up again.
Rene Russo still stood where she was, staring at him steadily with a bit more grievance and stubbornness in her eyes.
this.
Is this considered punishing myself?
The little man opposite the desk looked at her for a few times and finally asked: "Did you drive here?"
She still stared at him and hummed.
"In this case, it's already very late, let's go back."
Her eyes widened a bit. Did she hear wrongly?
Then she saw him coming over and seeing that she was not moving, so he reached out and stroked her cheek with his fingers.
After all, this body is her biggest asset, and she has been paying great attention to skin care over the years. Although she is 35 years old, she is confident that her skin is no worse than those of girls in their early twenties, or even better.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so 'unable to put it down' that night and left a lot of marks on her body.
However, the man's fingers slid to her neck and he took them back, saying again: "Go back, you just drank, I asked Neil to see you off."
After saying this, she saw him leaving the room first.
I had no choice but to follow him out again.
When she came to the front yard, her mood was still a bit complicated. She actually only drank a small half glass of red wine. She wanted to refuse him to send a driver to take her to her, but he was very determined, so she had to obey.
Her car was left here, and she was driven by his car.
Originally thinking that she could still have some contact, the next morning, his driver sent her car to West Hollywood.
Auditions are scheduled for Wednesday of the second week.
She had already accumulated several years of acting foundation. When ICM heard the news, it specially invited a famous acting teacher in Los Angeles to help her study the role. After four days of careful preparation, she successfully passed the Martin Scorsese exam.
Seth conducted the audition himself, and Scorsese also praised her performance.
It can be seen that this is not polite.
However, my mood was not very good in the following days.
Maybe she was given a role to clear things up, and that little man never contacted her again.
…
Until he left for Europe, Simon tried his best to drown himself in busy work. Since that coma, he felt that there were some things in his consciousness that shouldn't be there, and he couldn't even tell what those things were.
It comes from the original owner of this body, or from the awakening of some of his own consciousness.
However, he knew very well that this mentality was very abnormal, so he kept suppressing it forcefully.
This year's 42nd Cannes Film Festival opened on May 11. On the Daenerys Entertainment side, not only Ella Deutschman participated in this year's main competition with Gaomen Pictures' "My Left Foot"
unit, Robert Rehm also led a team to Cannes to promote a series of films produced by Daenerys Entertainment.
The Cannes Film Festival is not only an awards ceremony, but also the largest film trading market in Europe.
After deciding to attend the "Gucci Night" event in Cannes on May 20, Simon's European trip inevitably gradually included many other itineraries.
Determined to continue planning for the coming Internet era, Simon easily found Tim Berners-Lee through papers in some industry magazines. The founder of the Internet concept is currently working at the European Institute for Particle Physics in Sweden.
Simon hopes that this trip to Europe will invite him to go to North America to preside over the improvement of various technical standards for the Internet.
Now that he has bought Gucci, Simon also plans to go to Florence, where Gucci is headquartered.
In addition, with so many properties already purchased in Europe, I have to see them in person.
The team led by Ella Deutschman and Robert Rehm rushed to Cannes before May 11, and Simon only set off from Los Angeles on the morning of May 19.
Arriving in Cannes, it was already 8 a.m. local time on May 20.
Sofia Fesi came to pick up Simon in person, and the group got off the plane and rushed directly to the mountain mansion in Lecanet.
In the Spanish-style villa, Simon and Sofia were chatting in a low voice. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Natasha Kinski, who was wearing only a large white shirt and curled up on the sofa with two bare legs. Seeing Simon,
The woman just said hello lightly, then got up and walked upstairs, like a Persian cat that is accustomed to being indifferent to its owner.
Looking around, Simon found that the furnishings in the villa had also changed compared to when he left a year ago. They were obviously more feminine in style. There was also a faint smell of perfume floating in the air. Simon just saw some servants outside. He used to
