Hollywood Road

Chapter 482: shameless

Ask for monthly and recommended tickets!

The audience in the theater has not yet left. The words of the former Hollywood producer named Steve Pound immediately attracted a lot of hostile eyes. He knew that this was not a place where he could abuse him. Feeling dissatisfied, he hurriedly left the theater and drove back home as fast as he could.

As a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, although Steve Pound is in his seventies, he is different from those who like to vote with his feet. He always cherishes the Oscar votes in his hands and goes to watch Oscars every year. Candidate videos.

Impacting the Oscar Awards is a series of projects. A film is often decided at the beginning of the project whether it is aimed at the awards season. If you want to make a difference in the awards season, the producer and distributor will definitely invite them after the film is released. The Oscar judges enter the theater to watch the movie, and the Oscar judges also enjoy the treatment of free tickets. If the judges are heavy enough, there will be studios who will send copies of the participating films or DVD discs to them early. Hands.

This can be said to be a condition for admission to the awards. Even if they vote with their feet, the judges will not even be able to get the chance to be nominated if they have not even listened to the film.

In terms of going to the cinema in person, Steve Pound is old enough to be a core member of the academy.

However, Steve Pound never sees it this way. He actively participates in the annual Oscars from the nomination to the final awards.

After receiving a movie invitation from 20th Century Fox, he deliberately entered the theater, but the movie he saw did not surprise him, but felt angry. One is well-known in the United States, is praised by countless media and movie fans, and is well received by the industry. The director of, actually made such a shameless film!

Yes, Steve Pound thinks this film is completely shameless. What is Murphy Stanton preaching?

He is indeed a typical noir style film, and the value orientation in the film is not so correct, but it is not as ridiculous as the film "The Wolf of Wall Street"!

Steve Pound turned on the computer and quickly updated his Twitter. He wrote a large article eloquently, which focused on two points: It was really shameful for you to have gone through three hours of torture and filming such a film. !

Although he is not a core member of the academy, Steve Pound’s age and qualifications are here. There is also a wide network of relationships in Hollywood, and the film review was reposted by many people as soon as it was released.

With the increasing number of passers-by viewers watching "The Wolf of Wall Street", some negative comments will inevitably begin to appear on the Internet.

"The movie "The Wolf of Wall Street" is the worst movie I have ever seen!"

"In addition to the big names in the director and starring role, this film is a super bad movie. It has no connotation, negative energy, and **** shots. It is completely social pollution. I really can't figure out how my Iron Man Tony Stark could do it. Pick this kind of script."

These voices quickly attracted media attention. Because one of the goals of "The Wolf of Wall Street" was to target the awards season and Oscars, 20th Century Fox invited more than Steve Pound to the Oscar judges to watch free movies in theaters. There are other Oscar judges who dislike this film very much.

Especially in Los Angeles, there was a special Oscar screening during prime time on Saturday night. Many familiar Oscar judges watched the film together in a theater in Beverly Hills, directly turning the screening into a special for middle-aged and elderly people.

One of the female judges, Adele, who was close to 70 years old, was interviewed by a media reporter when she left the scene. She criticized watching "The Wolf of Wall Street" as "torture" and "disgusting scenes were repeated again and again." appear".

Adele also said that many Oscar judges, including her, did not like the film, but she also admitted that other Oscar judges were applauded during the screening.

The video of this interview later appeared on the oily turtle, and was reposted by many viewers and Oscar judges who did not like "The Wolf of Wall Street".

The rise of social networks has provided convenience to film production topics and publicity and hype, and is also conducive to the rapid spread of film’s good reputation.

By the same token, if there is any sound that is unfavorable to the film, it can often be heard as soon as possible.

Forty or fifty Oscar judges successively posted or reposted negative reviews of "The Wolf of Wall Street" through social networking sites, and the avatars they used showed that almost all these people were gray-haired seniors.

Such comments were naturally seen by the pervasive media. By Sunday morning, there were already paper-based media commenting and reporting on the matter.

"The good news is that "The Wolf of Wall Street" collected $27.4 million in one day on Saturday."

In the dining room of the Upper East Side, Gal Gadot placed the breakfast prepared by himself in front of Murphy, holding his porcelain plate, and sat opposite him, looking at the newspaper placed in front of the porcelain plate. Said, "The bad news is that the negative reviews have been circulated through social networking sites, and our online navy can't control it at all."

"It's okay." Murphy nodded, cut a piece of fried egg, put it in his mouth, and said, "It tastes great."

"Thank you." Gal Gadot smiled sweetly.

Murphy said as he ate, “Now it’s no longer than before. News spreads faster on the Internet. Real-time sharing has been achieved. It is impossible for us to affect all social networking sites.”

Gal Gadot shrugged, stuffed a piece of vegetable into her mouth, and swallowed it unconsciously. Fortunately, after so many years, she has become accustomed to this diet.

After eating a small portion of the green salad, Gal Gadot looked at the newspaper in front, pushed to Murphy's side, and said, "Let's take a look."

Putting down the knife and fork, Murphy took the newspaper and scanned it quickly.

"The new work "The Wolf of Wall Street" directed by Murphy Stanton has been released, and a special viewing trip was specially arranged in Los Angeles, where the Oscar judges gather, in order to create momentum for next year’s grand prize competition. Unexpectedly, this screening encountered the Oscar judges. Many Oscar judges are very dissatisfied with the film’s first pornographic and drug-taking scenes. From this perspective, the Oscar progress of "The Wolf of Wall Street" is quite unclear..."

After watching these, Murphy couldn't help shook his head, but there were dozens of Oscar judges, and the number of judges who gave the film good reviews was more than ten times as many as these people.

After breakfast, he saw more negative comments on the Internet. For those conservatives, "The Wolf of Wall Street" is definitely a poison that is hard to swallow.

The conservative media, film critics, and Oscar judges believe that "The Wolf of Wall Street" is an extravagant "mad show" that "starts with a flurry of demons and constantly rushes to crazier limits." "The whole film is The disgusting scenes keep repeating."

Later, when Murphy went to participate in a publicity event, he specifically accepted an interview with reporters on the matter.

"The movie itself is just as original as possible to show the character's experience and behavior, as far as possible without any sympathy or criticism to objectively describe the process of all this happening."

In the face of a large number of reporters, he did not think there was a problem with the film. "The characters in the film were originally such people: they are all evil and extravagant, and they never feel that they have done anything wrong, and are unwilling to apologize for their actions. , My team and I don’t want to use traditional methods to shoot and produce this movie, telling such a story, but rather hope that through the movie’s viewing experience, the audience can truly bring the audience into that experience, and then At the end, he woke up suddenly and realized the final destruction."

"The Wolf of Wall Street" received such treatment, Murphy is not surprised. Now the Oscar judges are more aging and conservative. According to the analysis of the Los Angeles Times, the average age of the 6,028 Oscar judges this year has risen from 62 to 63. The aging trend is intensifying.

Frankly speaking, his new film lasts for nearly three hours, and there are many scenes of swearing and drug use. For some old-school Oscar judges, it seems too dissonant, and it is reasonable not to be recognized by them.

But this does not mean that the journey of "The Wolf of Wall Street" to the Olympics has been shattered ahead of time. On the one hand, Oscars are constantly adding fresh blood, and there are also many people who enjoy such films.

On the other hand, it is not the first time that Murphy's film has been publicly condemned during the screening of Oscars. Past films have also been criticized for being too violent and dark, but this time the voice is a little loud.

When a reporter asked about the excessive scale of the film, Murphy said frankly, "This film is not for 14-year-old children, and it won't suit everyone's taste."

More and more reporters surrounded him, and bodyguards came to remind him that Murphy was about to leave. Just as he was about to get in the car, a reporter with a "Los Angeles Times" sign on his chest got in front of him.

"Hello, Director Stanton, I am the reporter Amanda Ferrara who interviewed you during the premiere."

The female reporter put the microphone in front of Murphy for the first time, and Murphy nodded blankly. It was so messy at the premiere, and it was so much. How could he remember who she was.

As if afraid that Murphy would run away, the female reporter hurriedly asked, "What do you think of some of the Oscar judges and film school members criticizing your film?"

"I think these judges only believe that the film should be an idealized version of life," Murphy first shrugged, and then opened his hands, "Rather than exploring the dark side of human nature, that's why we don't have deep works. ."

After saying this, he stopped giving reporters the opportunity to ask questions, and turned his head and got into the car.

Indeed, Oscar judges are criticizing him, but there are still a large number of people supporting him and this "Wolf of Wall Street".
