Heads Up Hollywood

The story of "A Beautiful Mind" is touching, inspirational, positive, and has a power to penetrate people's hearts.

Through decades of disdainful efforts, the leading actor, John Nash, relied on the power of will to overcome the disease and won the Nobel Prize under circumstances that everyone thought was impossible.

The heroine, Alicia Nash, has been silently accompanying her for decades, staying with each other, and finally helping her husband cure the disease. This is also a touching love story.

However, in reality, during the years when John Nash was ill, Alicia Nash had actually always planned to divorce him, and often lost her temper, because of the guardian's duties and the vision of society, she had to be by her side.

Not only that, but she also developed an extramarital affair and eventually divorced John Nash.

The real story is not beautiful at all, even a bit cruel.

However, what Tang En made was a movie, a literary work, an inspirational romance film intended to touch the people of the United States. Of course, the plot design must be perfect and everyone will be happy.

Russell Crowe released a movie this year, "Gladiator" produced by DreamWorks, which was well received. His personal acting skills have also improved by leaps and bounds under the guidance of the famous British director Ridley Scott.

During the filming of "A Beautiful Mind", Russell Crowe's superb acting skills, even Mr. John Nash, who was present at the scene, were full of praise!

Although, the John Nash he showed is far more dignified than the John Nash who is actually sick!

And Nicole Kidman, who plays the heroine Alicia Nash, is a representative of beauty, not only the appearance is peerless, but also the kindness of the heart.

"Field 43, Article 13, start!"

With director Tang En's shout, the new performance started again.

"Then... how big is the universe?"

On a bench on the MIT campus, "Alicia" played by Nicole Kidman sat next to "John Nash" played by Russell Crowe, showing a pretty and glamorous side face, Curiosity gleamed in his eyes.

Russell Crowe's expression froze, he turned his head a little stupidly, glanced at Nicole who was smiling like a flower, and said blankly: "Infinity."

Nicole Kidman blinked and tilted her head, "How do you know?"

Russell Crowe said staidly: "I know, because all the information says so."

"But... there's no evidence, is there?" Nicole Kidman pursed her lips and smiled.

Russell Crowe was obviously taken aback, thought for a while, and then nodded clumsily, "Yes."

Nicole Kidman smiled wider, "So you've never seen it, have you?"

Russell Crowe nodded mechanically, "Yes."

A bit of slyness flashed across Nicole Kidman's pretty face, "Then how are you sure?"

Russell Crowe frowned slightly and shook his head, "I didn't confirm it, I just believed it."

"Well, I guess it's the same as love." Nicole Kidman glanced at him deeply, as if talking to herself, as if she had a deep meaning, "The part you don't know is whether I want to marry you!"

Russell Crowe's face was touched, he turned his head, and met Nicole Kidman's passionate eyes...

"Perfect! Nicole, your eyes are amazing, pass this one!" Tang En stood up abruptly and shouted. He was the first to applaud, and then the entire crew applauded enthusiastically for their wonderful performance.

Although this set of shots is not complicated, it is an important turning point for the hero and heroine from a hazy love affair to a marriage, and it plays an important role in linking the past and the future to the plot trend of the whole movie.

Russell Crowe's performance is relatively simple, because he has mental problems, and it is impossible to have major emotional changes. All the highlights are placed on Nicole Kidman.

This is already the 13th filming. In the previous 12 times, Twain was not satisfied with Nicole's performance, especially the close-up of the eyes at the end, which lacked the texture of emotional explosion and was a bit formatted.

It's fine if it's someone else, but Tang En intends to use this role to compete for an Oscar for Nicole Kidman, so he must pay special attention to details, especially this kind of close-up that can capture people's hearts.

Fortunately, she succeeded in the 13th shooting!

Nicole Kidman was praised by Tang En, and also felt the encouragement of the entire crew, and there were some waves in her heart.

This is already the second time she and Tang En have collaborated. The last time "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", she gained word-of-mouth and box office, successfully throwing off the title of "box office poison".

This time, "A Beautiful Mind" gave her very good memories.

The positive, harmonious, and uplifting atmosphere in the crew allows every actor to immerse himself in the performance, as if they are detached.

Of course, the biggest credit goes to Tang En.

When she thought of Tang En, her heart became very complicated.

Back then, Tang En climbed onto her bed because of an agreement of interest. But the two of them have slept in the same bed for two years, and they have long since broken away from the interest relationship.

At this time, Tang En came over with a smile and praised: "Nicole, if you can maintain this state, I can guarantee that the Oscar queen will never run away!"

Nicole Kidman shook her head with a smile, seeing Russell Crowe tactfully giving the two of them a private space, she whispered: "The last look, do you know how I showed it? "

Tang En replied casually: "Good acting skills!"

Nicole Kidman looked deeply into Tang En's eyes, "At that time, all I could think about was you."

Tang En's heart skipped a beat, he panicked, and he quickly shouted, "Nicole, you really know how to joke!"

...

Tang En's speech at the feminist forum caused a huge sensation!

Not only did the toy sales of "Barbie" and "Disney Princess" suffer a huge impact, but it also brought Tang En an unprecedented good reputation.

Especially now that the crew of "A Beautiful Mind" is filming in Cambridge, Boston, which is a key development area for the Feminist Alliance.

Every day outside the set, you can see many media reporters and women's rights activists around here, trying to interview Tang En, and hear some of his more insights and understanding of women's rights.

Tang En's influence is too great, and the boycott movement of Barbie dolls is in full swing, which greatly promotes the development of women's rights.

The Barbie doll, which has existed for half a century, has had an immeasurably bad influence on women's values ​​and aesthetic judgments!

In the director's lounge, Twain welcomed an uninvited guest. The party consisted of 5 people, and they were reporters from "Time" magazine.

"Time Magazine" is Time Warner's trump card magazine. Because Tang En's feminist speech was too influential, he relied on Warner Bros.'s relationship and went through a special channel to finally have this opportunity for an exclusive interview.

It is conceivable that Twain will become the cover character of "Time" for the fourth time.

"I'm sorry, I only have half an hour." Tang En was still busy with filming, so he wouldn't be too accommodating regardless of the other party's background.

"It doesn't matter, half an hour is enough! Oh, by the way, my name is Maria, and I am a feminist just like you." The female reporter showed her extraordinary professional level as soon as she opened her mouth, and pulled away Cleared up the chatter box for each other, and delineated the key point - women's rights.

Tang En's level is not bad, he said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Maria, you are very beautiful today, just like a singer group that I like very much right now, 'Destiny's Child'."

The "Destiny's Child" group is a relatively popular R\u0026B group now, and the head star is Beyoncé North!

This combination, separate and combined, has caused quite a bit of controversy, which is not the point. What Tang En cares about is that the members of this group are all of the "healthy", "mature" and "strength" type, which is completely different from the fragile princess style of Barbie dolls.

More importantly, Twain's movies have always been criticized by people of color for not having enough black actors.

And the "Destiny's Child" group happens to be mostly people of color!

The corner of reporter Maria's mouth curled up, and a hint of slyness flashed across, "If I remember correctly, the group 'True Destiny' was originally a Disney children's group."

"Times" really is "Times", the level of reporters is really high, and it seems that they can start a war without making a show.

Tang En was as calm as water, and said lightly: "I said that Disney's animation films in the past had a very serious misguided value, which is not good for the little girl's physical and mental health. But that is all in the past tense, now Disney has kept up with the development of the times, such as "Mulan" and "Tarzan", which have guided the girls to be independent and free."

Michael Eisner's frequent gestures of goodwill signified that the conflict between Tang En Pictures and Disney's over-excitement could be eased.

The competition still exists, of course, but there is no need to disclose it to the outside public.

Hollywood, to show unity, upward, positive, positive energy.

"What about Tang En Pictures?" Reporter Maria smiled, "We all know that you are a feminist fighter, and you are also a director. Will you shoot some films that promote feminism? Just Like... "Thelma \u0026 Louise"?"

Tang En replied without hesitation: "Of course!"

"Can you continue talking?"

"You know, Tang En Pictures' foundation is still very weak, and this year's project investment has been completed. However, starting from next year, that is, 2001, Tang En Pictures will invest in at least one feminist film every year to promote social progress and help The advancement of women."

Reporter Maria was both surprised and delighted. Twain's movie had too much influence. As a woman, she really hopes that Twain can promote women's rights through movies.

Unexpectedly, he really had this idea!

It is conceivable that if this news is reported, feminists across the United States and even the world will cheer, right?

Seeing Tang En's seriousness, he said solemnly: "Although it is still in a state of confidentiality, I can disclose some information in advance. Next year, I will set up a new company specializing in shooting feminist films, affiliated with Tang En Pictures. The filming The movie... is by no means a shoddy production, it will definitely have a huge social impact, I have even thought about the leading role of the movie, it is my girlfriend, Miss Natalie Portman!"
