Made in Hollywood

Chapter 152: Bitches

"Sorry, sir."

As soon as he reached the backstage entrance, Duke was stopped by someone, "You can't enter here."

"I am a director..."

"Sorry……"

Obviously, the other party does not know him at all. This can be said to be the sadness of directors in this era. Except for the hot screenings and hot topics of the movie, the general audience rarely pays attention to the director standing behind the scenes. It is normal to know the director himself.

Duke was also a little helpless. After coming with his mother last night, he deliberately checked the "Forty-Second Street" poster. It was indeed the familiar name on it. He took time to come back tonight, but was stopped by someone.

"I am a director, and I want to find an actor of you to star in my work."

This is Duke's true purpose, but the other party doesn't believe it at all. Probably there are not a few liars who came here under this banner.

"Who are you looking for? I can convey it to you."

"I'm looking for Miss Jones." Duke handed over a card. "This is my business card."

"Duke Rosenberg?"

The man was not surprised. Instead, he looked at Duke with suspicion. He didn't seem to believe that the director who had caused a strong reaction in the summer would be so young.

"Please wait a moment." Perhaps the business card did work, and the man murmured a few words with his companion, turned and walked inward.

The backstage of the theater is not as glamorous as the stage, and even a little run-down. Sitting in the narrow dressing room, several young girls are busy removing their makeup. One of the fastest moves has already removed the performance makeup and is playing for himself. A light base makeup.

She is very aware of her own strengths and weaknesses, as long as a suitable light makeup can make her look brilliant. If you don't wear makeup, you will look pale and listless.

The knock on the door suddenly sounded, someone opened a crack in the door, showed his head and talked with the people outside, and then retracted.

"Kate, this is for you."

The relationship between that woman and her seems average. He threw a card on the dressing table in front of her.

"Anyone you admire again?"

Another plump young woman next to her seemed to have a good relationship with her, so she picked up the card and said, "Kate, former admirers always mix business cards with flowers and gifts. Someone is so ignorant and only sends one. A business card."

"No matter what the gift is, there is only one place for me."

The woman named Kate didn't seem to care, "That's the trash can. Doesn't it, Rachel?"

"That's because the person who moved you didn't show up."

Rachel shrugged, and when she turned her head back, her sarcasm was fleeting. She knew that although the woman next to her had experienced the failure of breaking into Hollywood, her heart was higher than the sky.

"Maybe the person who gave the business card is a major Hollywood director!" She could only hear the ridicule in the sentence she later said.

But when I turned over the white back and saw the front of the business card with only the name, occupation and phone number. She opened her eyes suddenly, as if she couldn't believe it...

Isn't this true? Famous Hollywood director. The most famous one who has risen recently, is he really waiting outside for the woman next to him?

Subconsciously, Rachel wanted to throw the business card into the trash can by her feet.

But she is smart, and Kate next to her is not an idiot, so she walks over calmly, "Whose name will surprise you so much?"

Talking. He took the business card back easily.

Before Kate could see the name on the card, Rachel suddenly said, "Hey, sisters! There is amazing good news! Kate just received a business card from Hollywood director Duke Rosenberg!"

There were no exclaims in the dressing room, nor did the legendary sisters celebrate. Others didn't move, or looked at this side with suspicion or disbelief, but their eyes were jealous and indifferent after removing these!

"Congratulations, Kate, you have another chance to go to Hollywood."

The words that suddenly sounded seemed to be congratulations, but with other repressive flavors, "I hope you will come back as a successful person this time."

Kate seemed to turn a deaf ear to these words, her eyes drifting from Rachel's face like needles, this woman made her a public enemy of the dressing room with just one sentence.

And no one knows whether this business card is true or not. If it is false, she is bound to be laughed at by these women.

"Kate, I didn't mean anything else..." Rachel looked innocent.

Nodded, Kate packed up her handbag, put on her coat, and walked towards the door. Just after she walked out of the dressing room, there was the sound of high heels falling behind her, and Rachel followed.

"Let's go together." She looked like a sister.

"Sorry, Miss Vichy." Kate turned and walked towards the dressing room. "I have something I forgot to bring."

Seeing the back disappearing at the entrance of the dressing room, Rachel whispered ‘Bi Chi’ and walked forward. If the business card is true, the director from Hollywood must be waiting for the exit in the backstage...

"Director Rosenberg, please sit down."

The manager of the theater shook hands with Duke and told the people next to him, "Hurry up and invite Miss Jones!"

Just now, when he was passing by the exit of the backstage, he saw Duke. He hesitated for a while. He went forward to talk a few words, then confirmed Duke's identity and quickly invited him to the manager's office.

"Unexpectedly, you are also interested in our repertoire."

Hearing the compliments from the other party, Duke also said politely, "It's wonderful, this is the second time I'm here tonight."

After the two of them were very polite, the door was knocked, and a woman about 5 feet 6 inches tall walked in with her feet on flat shoes.

She has long dark brown and almost jet-black long hair, a pair of charming amber eyes, born with a unique romantic temperament, exquisite face with both classical and wild charm, and the body wrapped in a tight coat is simply Synonymous with beauty and sexy.

When she looked at Duke quietly, she was completely elegant in the style of a classic British lady; when she shook hands with Duke enthusiastically, she was full of hot wild beauty.

"Hello, Director Rosenberg..." She seemed a little incoherent, "I didn't expect, I didn't expect it to be you."

"You're welcome. Miss Jones."

Having directed so many films, the other party has not yet Oscar-level acting skills in the future, Duke can tell whether it is a performance, "I saw your singing and dancing performance yesterday and today, and I was very impressed."

"Thank you." She looked at the theater manager, and then sat on the sofa next to Duke. "Call me Kate or Catherine."

"You guys talk." The theater manager stood up at this moment, "I still have work to do."

After the theater manager left, Duke watched her quietly, and the other party sat there quietly, like the most elegant English lady.

"Kate, your singing and dancing performances are very contagious." Duke had no time to waste and went straight to the subject, "I wonder if you have plans to go to Hollywood?"

"Hollywood?" She hesitated for a moment, still saying. "Actually, I went to Los Angeles in 1992, but nothing was done, so I returned to London."

She knows how difficult it is for outsiders to enter Hollywood. If she is not an Englishman, but comes from continental Europe, she can't even get those small roles.

"You came from a musical background, should you know "Chicago"?"

See her nodding. Duke continued, "Now the film adaptation rights for "Chicago" are in my hands. I will put it on the big screen for up to a year, and I have been watching the right actresses."

That's right, what Duke bought from Broadway was the film adaptation rights for "Chicago."

The right actress?

Catherine Zeta Jones was stunned, and immediately understood that she could be described as a suitable actress by the director. It must be one of the two heroines, can not help but feel happy, and then surprised.

Hi, because this is an opportunity to be a heroine, and it is still based on a Broadway classic musical. She is a musical actor and she has learned to dance since she was six years old. She has also won the All-British Tap Dance Championship. There is nothing more suitable for her role in Hollywood.

As for surprise...

It comes from the style of the opposite director. If he personally directed such a movie, what horrible effect would it have?

Zeta Jones couldn't imagine. If Duke Rosenberg, a director who has been dubbed an explosive frenzy by the media and fans, were to direct a song and dance film, what would the world look like?

A surprise eyeball? Smile off your teeth? Still feel the end of the world is coming...

"Can I?" she asked tentatively.

"If you are interested in auditioning, you can study the role of Velma if you have time."

The current Catherine Zeta Jones is not the future. Duke will not naively think that she will have future acting skills, and will not guarantee anything. "Your singing and dancing skills are very good. I personally think you are very suitable for this role. If If you can meet my requirements."

Through two nights of observation, Duke has enough confidence in Catherine Zeta Jones' singing and dancing, but his acting skills are not satisfactory.

He looked at his watch. He estimated that the mother of the visiting friend was going back to the hotel soon, stood up and said, "If you are interested, you can call me."

"Mr. Rosenberg..."

Catherine Zeta Jones, who has been in a state of thinking, seems to have made a decision. He took the bag, took out his business card, and handed it to Duke, "If the preparation of the film starts, please let me know? Thank you!"

In this film, the performance of the heroine is the top priority. Duke thought for a while and said, "Your singing and dancing is not a problem, and the acting skills need to be strengthened. I hope you can see your excellent performance during the audition."

After speaking, he stopped staying, walked out of the theater, and hurried to the hotel.

Zeta Jones, who stayed in the manager's room, has already called the agent's phone and asked her how to improve as much as possible within a year. (To be continued...)
