Hollywood Secret Garden

Chapter 389 Reconciliation Agreement

"Hi, Miss Kate, Miss Angela, you can call me Nami."

"Nice to meet you, Nami, you can also call me Angie."

"Welcome to my party Nami, I have to say you are beautiful."

They quickly got to know each other after shaking hands, greeting each other, and in Angela's opinion, Naomi was a smart woman. She and Kate were already familiar with Nicole, but Naomi could quickly leave no trace. Come in, although women get acquainted quickly, her ability to speak also played a big role. When Kate was complimenting her beauty just now, she cleverly took over the topic and complimented her without leaving a trace. Kate also praised Nicole, and even gave Angela a small compliment, which is very cute.

But Angela felt that the name sounded a little familiar. She didn't think it was an illusion. This feeling could only mean one thing, that was, she had heard the name before.Although Nicole said that Naomi was her friend, but Angela could definitely see her for the first time, so they still feel familiar, which can only explain one problem...

"By the way, Nicole, you don't seem to have any new works last year, do you want to take a break?" Angela asked suddenly.

"Well, something happened, I think it will be alright." Nicole shrugged her shoulders as if she didn't intend to say anything more, "A movie that I signed before will start shooting soon, a fantasy about magic and witchcraft Movie."

"Don't tell me, you want to play the role of an old witch flying around on a broomstick." Angela said jokingly.

"If you want to play, you're also playing a young witch flying around on a broomstick," Nicole laughed. "In fact, this is not the movie version of "The Fairy Wife". If you want to count, it should be classified as a black comedy."

"When you say that, I'm looking forward to it." Angela said, turning her head to Naomi, and asked a question that had been brewing for a long time: "What about you, Naomi, Nicole said that you have been acting since you were 15 years old. Movies, do you have any masterpieces?"

"Not yet, I just played a few small roles in some movies." Naomi was very calm when she said this, but Angela still heard something else, and asked in surprise: "Why? Yes? You are so beautiful..."

"There is no shortage of beautiful women in Hollywood, Angie. Beauty, hard work and luck are indispensable for a woman to gain a foothold here." Naomi shook her head, and following the faint hint of depression, Angela suddenly wanted to pat her head, " Mulholland Drive!

Yes, Naomi Watts was in David Lynch - not David Fincher, both named David but with different surnames - that illogical movie "Mulholland Drive" played an important role in.Angela was very impressed with the movie "Mulholland Drive", because when I first watched it, I couldn't understand it anyway, and I didn't understand what the movie was about. After I found some comments and read it, I was shocked immediately It's amazing that there are so many ways in it, it's almost admirable, so I watched it many times, and I was naturally impressed by Naomi.But no matter how many times I watched it at that time, I still couldn't understand it. I couldn't tell what was real and what was illusory. In the end, I had no choice but to pretend to understand.

But now after going through so many things and looking back on the fragments of this movie, Angela suddenly came to her senses. It is estimated that David Lynch did not intend to let the audience understand!Although she and Lynch didn't know each other, except for a little thing that she could recall, she only knew about him in the news-last year, "Lost Highway" directed by him was criticized by the mainstream media-but I also know that the movies directed by this guy rarely talk about logic, and this movie is edited so fragmentarily but handles the small details so well, it is obviously a well-prepared set!

Angela remembered that Lynch himself seemed to admit that this was a Freudian nightmare, so it is undoubtedly ridiculous to find logic from the nightmare. Maybe the first half of the movie is reality and the second half is a dream?Maybe the beginning and end are dreams and the middle is reality?Maybe it was all a dream from beginning to end?In short, if you want to follow those small details to find logic, you will fall into the trap set by Lynch, and then triumphantly declare that you understand it.

Thinking of this, Angela suddenly felt the desire to sigh, and she was still complacent about someone helping to complete "Stealing and Kidnapping". They have reached the point where anyone can read the complete story by cutting out any broken things , no wonder some people say that there are only two kinds of good movies, either very good or difficult to understand.Lynch's genius lies in the fact that anyone, anyone who has an independent consciousness and does not copy what others say, can prove his own things from "Mulholland Drive".

It is said that the reason why Naomi performed so well in it has something to do with her experience. No wonder she always feels depressed.Angela was thinking in a daze until Kate's voice sounded: "Angie! Come back to your senses!"

"What's the matter?" The girl looked at Kate in a daze, but after noticing the strange expressions of Nicole and Naomi, she immediately realized that her eyes had never moved away from Naomi since just now.

"I'm so sorry, I was rude." Angela quickly apologized.

"It's okay, maybe you're thinking about something, I hope you haven't been interrupted." Naomi looked very generous.

"Or because of Nami, you are inspired to write a new script?" Nicole said jokingly at this time.

"In fact... that's true." Angela's words immediately stunned the other three women present.

"Really?" Nicole repeated her words, the surprise on her face was not feigned, "You mean..."

"No, no, it's not like that." Angela knew what she wanted to say, and shook her head immediately, "I'm conceiving a script, the structure and characters have been settled, but the image of the heroine is still very vague. Although I Today is the first time we meet Nami, but in terms of appearance, her image is very suitable, I wonder if she would like to participate in the audition?"

She said the last sentence to Naomi, which made the other party unbelievable: "I... can I?"

"Of course, I believe you will be very good when the time comes. My intuition has always been accurate," Angela nodded with the corners of her mouth curled up. "But I just have an idea and haven't written it yet. I hope you can leave your contact information. I'll let you know when the time comes."

The girl's mind is of course not "Mulholland Drive". What her plan needs is a movie with both word of mouth and box office, not something that is aimed at playing people-although the people being played are complacent and talk about it, and She has always been less interested in the kind of movies that usually spark the Emperor's New Clothes-style debate.And the reason why I told Naomi that there is a suitable role for her is just to give her a hand. Anyway, whether it is "50 First Dates" or "Love Through Time and Space" are very suitable for her image and temperament, even Because of this, Naomi missed the opportunity to perform in "Mulholland Drive", and it may not be possible to lose sight of everyone, who knows?

There were a lot of people at the party, especially acquaintances. Angela lamented that while Kate was caring, she had to try to hide as much as possible when she wanted to be alone for a while. Looking at those familiar faces, it goes without saying that George Wells, Paul Tuckers and the head of the film company, but how could Britney and Christina also appear at the party?

Angela couldn't figure out how Kate invited them here. Although the C&B group was very popular last year and was nominated for Best Newcomer at the Grammys, they are still just new singers... really It's hard to hold this party for her, but it's really uncomfortable to chat with them on this occasion, especially when chatting in the corner, the two always rub against her body intentionally or unintentionally, if this is not Angela had to throw them out at the party.

Of course, fortunately, that guy Paris didn't come, which is a blessing in misfortune.Since Angela said in a teasing tone when she was filming a Chanel commercial last time, why not try it out with a woman for the first time, this young lady really did it!I don't know exactly what happened, but one day when she ran to the door one day, she mysteriously told Angela that she had tried it, and then told her that she might as well try it in a seductive and ambiguous tone.

"It tastes so good." Paris said close to her ear at that time, and the hot breath made her ears itchy.

Angela was "thundered" so badly, she never thought that it was just a prank-like joke, and it would turn out like this. What's even more disturbing is that from then on, Paris always wanted to seduce herself intentionally or unintentionally. , It didn't get better until Angela warned her that no matter what, she was not allowed to step into the villa for half a step. If she was here today, she might mix with Britney and Christina, and then make things worse.

Even so, there are still many people that Angela wants to meet, such as Liv.

"It will take about two weeks to stay. The general plot is that a group of dancing oil workers go to space to save the earth. The director is called Michael Bing or Michael Ding." ——Typical Liv-style character title.

"Michael Bay." Angela corrected, although she knew it was futile.

"Well, Michael Pai, it doesn't really matter." Liv looked cute with her mouth twisted. "I just don't understand. What the hell was the scriptwriter thinking, sending a group of untrained oil workers to space to blow up meteorites? This is really crazy."

"In this case, why did you still accept the script?" Angela asked amusedly, "I heard that you rejected it twice."

"Because..." She tilted her head and thought for a while, then announced, "I've changed my mind!"

"Liv's answer, I knew it," Angela curled her lips, "Then why only stay for two weeks, I didn't know that Hollywood's film industry is already developed, and such a big-budget movie can be shot in only two weeks. "

"Oh, that's because I have a fashion show in New York in two weeks, and I'll fly back to continue shooting after that," Liv explained, and then became excited again, "But this This time I was working with Bruce Willis, I was a little excited, and...they invited my father to write the theme song, it should be very good."

"Congratulations, you spelled another person's name correctly." Angela teased, looking at Liv with her bulging cheeks, she suddenly put her chin on her head and began to think.

"What's wrong?" Liv asked strangely.

"It's nothing, I was just thinking about what role would suit you," Angela said with a sigh, "However, after thinking about it for a long time, I didn't expect that there are really too few characters that can fully display your temperament."

"It's okay, Angie, don't you always say that an excellent actor is one who can play a role that is completely opposite to your own temperament?" Liv shook her hand carelessly, "I will naturally fight for any role I like, but I failed. It doesn't matter."

"You are so open-minded." Angela couldn't help but sigh a little.

"That's true, maybe because Liv never worries about those unhappy things." A voice came over.

The girl frowned slightly, but when the other party appeared in front of her, she recovered her calm look, and greeted her with a smile: "Hi, Rachel, I didn't expect you to come to Kate's party. "

"Since Kate invited me, of course she has to come." Rachel responded with the same smile, looking graceful in a light-colored suit.

"Hi, hello, Rachel." Liv hugged her immediately.

"I don't know you guys still know each other, when?" Angela glanced at Rachel, then looked at Liv.

"I met when I came to Los Angeles to participate in a fashion show last year. I really like Rachel's performance in "Titanic." Liv smiled and held Rachel's hand like a movie fan.

"Actually, I like it too, right, Rachel?" Angela maintained a formulaic smile, while Rachel just shrugged and didn't answer. After talking for a few more words, Liv left and went to the bathroom, while Angela Homeopathic also want to leave.

"Don't you just hate me so much?" Rachel suddenly asked, Angela stopped in a daze and turned around: "I think you know why."

"I won't touch you again, you can rest assured." Rachel whispered, "But you can't keep turning a blind eye to me. Kate has already asked me if there is any misunderstanding between you and me."

Angela snorted softly and didn't speak. After a while, she took a deep breath: "I hope you will do what you say, thank you."

As he said that, he turned around and was about to leave. After walking a few steps, he turned back and said in an orderly tone: "There will be a movie in the second half of the year. I hope you can be the heroine. Don't tell me you don't want to."

Then she left in a hurry without waiting for Rachel to speak. Angela didn't want to show any favors. Although Rachel said that and she knew that Kate should not be worried, she still didn't want to have too much contact with Rachel. Reconciliation also takes time.

The reason why Rachel was cast as the heroine was purely out of the principle of maximizing profit. Preparations for Sommers' "The Mummy" will start after "Death Comes" is released. Of course, the main roles can remain unchanged.Now that the reconciliation has been made, it's okay to let her play the role, so she used an orderly tone, and left without saying anything, but looking at Angela's back, Rachel's eyes flashed a complex look of surprise and confusion.

"It's terrible." After dealing with a few more people, Angela finally got some temporary personal space. Angela shook her head from the living room to the back garden, and then she saw Lindsay holding a The glass cup was slowly poured into the mouth, and the brown liquid also slowly flowed into the rosy mouth.

"Lindsay!" The girl called out immediately, took a few steps forward, snatched the cup and put it next to her nose to smell it, then looked down at the little girl: "What are you doing?!"

Startled, Lindsay shrank her neck, and weakly argued, "I'm just curious and want to try it."

"Try it? Do you know how old you are? Even if it's not a public place, you have to be over 18 to drink!" Angela glared at her angrily, "Are you trying to make trouble for Kate?!"

"No, I'm just curious, just curious." Lindsay looked like she was about to cry, "I specially chose sherry liqueur."

Angela couldn't help being a little soft-hearted, but when she thought of certain things, she was very worried, and then wanted to get angry.But fortunately, Jessica ran over holding Ellie at this moment: "What happened?"

With Jessica by her side, Angela finally endured it: "This guy, Lindsay, actually slipped here to steal a drink!"

"I'm just..." Lindsay wanted to defend, but the girl glared at her and immediately swallowed her words back.

"Stealing alcohol?" Jessica looked at Lindsay a little funny, and then pulled Angela to persuade her: "Okay, it's no big deal, don't you often tell me that the legal drinking age is useless?"

"That's different." Angela made a gesture, then looked at the poor Lindsay who was hugging her younger sister Ellie, and finally sighed: "Okay, don't do this again, okay?"

The little girl immediately nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and at the same time made a sound of um, ah, ah, and Ellie beside her couldn't help asking strangely: "Sister, is your head clockwork broken?"

After the childish voice sounded, Angela and Jessica couldn't help covering their mouths and laughing. Although Lindsay was unhappy, she could only endure it. Who told her that it was her sister who said this.

"Thank you, Jesse, I have to deal with a lot of people, so I'm getting out now." After laughing, Angela hugged Jessica apologetically, "Let me take Ellie with me next."

"You should have done this a long time ago. If it continues, I will ask Lindsay for the nanny's salary." Jessica said jokingly.

"Lindsay should be able to afford this salary, right?" Angela said with a smile and looked at the little girl, "I remember she just played a role in a horror movie, besides, there are a lot of advertisements Woolen cloth."

Lindsay, who was still smiling just now, suddenly lowered her face, as if something was on her mind, Angela couldn't help but stare at Jessica and then at Lindsay, and asked a little puzzled: "What did I say wrong?" Yet?"

Lindsay shook her head and did not answer, but Jessica suddenly realized: "Last time, Lindsay said that her advertising notices have decreased a lot. It seems that the advertisers said that her image is not flattering."

Angela was stunned again, and then she understood. Looking at the little girl who hesitated to speak, she thought that her recent roles were all in horror movies. Such a result will evolve after "Small Island Cry", no wonder she has been depressed during this time...

The girl suddenly squatted down in front of Lindsay, watched her raise a hand in front of her and said seriously: "Will you make an agreement with me? I want you to learn at least two musical instruments within two years, and learn to Write your own lyrics and music, read as many books as you can, and you can ask anyone, including me. If you meet my requirements within two years-not too high and never too low-I will specialize for you Tailor-made a script, agree?"
