It is said that "The Green Mile" adapted from Stephen King's novel is about to shine in the Christmas season. As the director of this film, he has a close relationship with Stephen King and they are a very good pair; but this is not the most important thing.
, the main thing is that the star of this drama is also very awesome, he is the Hollywood superstar-Tom Hanks...
Tom Hanks can be said to be the most famous "genuine Yankee" in Hollywood. He has a conservative surname and a restrained appearance. Almost all of his roles are righteous and he rarely plays villains. His superb acting skills have made him famous in 1994.
He won the Oscar for Best Actor in the United States in 1995. He is one of America's favorite actors. His appeal is so powerful that there is a saying in the film industry, "The name Tom Hanks alone is worth 100 million."

This time Universal invited Tom Hanks to star in this drama, with the purpose of relying on his popularity to take the lead in the Hollywood Christmas season; in addition, this drama is adapted from Stephen King's novel, which itself is also very popular.
, it can be said that the two swords combined are invincible. The only shortcoming is that this drama is not a comedy, nor does it belong to the family entertainment type. It is a bit touching and shocking, and it does not seem to be suitable for the joyful atmosphere of Christmas.
In addition to the above two dramas, there is also a British-produced romantic comedy film "Notting Hill" invested by MGM. The director and leading actor of this drama are both out-and-out British stars. One is the director Roger Miche
Well, one is the actor Hugh Durez. And the focus of this drama is the heroine, who is the Hollywood baby queen-Julia Roberts! Yes, it is this big-mouthed beauty who is popular all over the world.
In fact, before the filming of this drama started, the actor Hugh Durez thought that the now popular international queen Julia Roberts might be the only candidate to play the heroine "Anna". When he told the director Michelle his idea
, Michelle thought it was simply unattainable. Later, Julia Roberts' agent saw the film script, and she said it was the best romantic comedy script she had ever seen. In Michelle's eyes, it was good.
As expected, Julia Roberts was very optimistic about the role of "Anna" and agreed to play the role. Later, director Michelle said at a press conference: "Julia is very suitable for the role of Anna because she is a famous international movie star herself.
It's just playing another star."
Facts have also proved that this drama invested by MGM is really suitable for Julia Roberts to star in. The male and female protagonists are a perfect match. It was filmed in the UK. The British style is blended into the casual bourgeoisie mood, the comedy elements are flashy, and the love is widely loved by the public.
Elements make this drama extremely exciting.
Taken together, Warner Bros.: "The Matrix 2", Columbia: "Daddy", Universal Pictures: "The Green Mile", MGM: "Notting Hill", these movies are basically big-name movies.
route, in addition to Sony's "American Beauty" and Disney's "Mouse", they have also joined the fray as the Christmas season approaches.
In addition to the major movie companies above, there are also new Christmas movies released by other movie companies, but in front of these big sharks, almost all of them become small fish and shrimps, or minced meat dinners...
It can be said that in December 1999, almost all the good movies carefully produced by major companies were squeezed into the theaters this month.
…
On December 10, good news came to Yi Feiyang. Sony's "American Beauty" was approved by the Motion Picture Association of America as a prohibited work because of the scenes in it, and was sent back to the company for re-editing. Since then. "American Beauty"
"If it wants to be screened, it is estimated that the date will be greatly postponed.
Sony was surprised that the film was rejected by the "Motion Picture Association". In fact, Yi Feiyang knew clearly that the drama "American Beauty" had been controversial in his previous life, especially the plot design of "Lolita"
, has even been criticized by many filmmakers, who feel that this kind of "uncle and lolita" incest has greatly affected the viewing experience of the movie.
So, what role does the 'immoral' relationship occupy in "American Beauty"? This social taboo, as long as it is not handled properly, will seriously affect the development of the characters and the harmony of the story. A sixteen-year-old
The little girl became the savior of a forty-two-year-old middle-aged man. She gave him beautiful hope and a reason to change his life. It can be said that such an angle has never been seen before in similar themes. Originally, the writer and director
He is very smart and does not get too entangled in thorny "immoral" relationships. However, he eventually entered a minefield for the sake of artistic ambition. The uncle had a relationship with Lolita, which also challenged the censorship authority of the Film Association.
I just killed this section and asked the director to take it back and re-edit it...
So when we watched this drama in the previous life, the re-edited story was that the uncle and Loli had been flirting with goldfish and never broke through the last so-called "moral" line of defense.
~Having a relationship with a girl, which disappointed countless viewers who were looking forward to it, but made the reviewers of the Film Association feel complacent, as if I was a moral judge.
However, in the end, Yi Feiyang still underestimated the strength of Sony. The re-editing of "American Beauty" did not affect their release schedule. In other words, this drama will not be postponed as Yi Feiyang imagined, but Nephew
Light a lantern - take care of your uncle (as usual)!
Yi Feiyang was so happy that he wanted to watch his enemies suffer misfortune, so he might as well go back and straighten out his own side of the movie. Only when he is truly strong, then he has nothing to fear.
At the same time, the filming of "Dance Floor" has also reached the final closing stage.
In these three days, the crew has finished shooting most of the final scenes, and what awaits everyone is a perfect ending.
December 13, 1999.
That night, there was a bright moon hanging in the sky, a breeze picked up, the weather had turned cold, and there was a bit of coolness in the air.
In order to film the last scene of the drama "Dance Floor", which is the dance competition, Yi Feiyang specially found Fox TV station and asked to borrow their audition venue.
This venue is very large and open. The most important thing is that Yi Feiyang is very familiar with it. The live audition of "Dance Floor Battle" was held here. Now it has been transformed into a stage in the play, giving Yi Feiyang an inexplicable feeling. After all,
Which one is true and which one is false?
As soon as seven o'clock passed, the Fox TV station's largest indoor live broadcast venue began to become quiet. Normally, this time would be the busiest time here, but today, the originally crowded venue became silent.
Yi Feiyang sat on the chair next to the stage and watched the people around him busy. They were setting up various sets, the actors were putting on makeup, the lighting engineer was adjusting the light over and over again, and Fat Jack and the photographer Cindy began to hold the camera.
Determine the next shot to be shot.
The lounge behind the studio hall is not very spacious. Roadblocks have been put up at both ends of the corridor to prevent idlers from intruding. There are more than thirty people standing in the lounge, including the "Masked Dancers" group. They are all Yi Feiyang's talent show.
The dancers were selected from the show. This group of people arrived here early, put on makeup, dressed up, and were all ready. They were just waiting for the director's order to start filming.
In another VIP room, Michael Jackson, the leading actor, was putting on makeup, and his agent Peter next to him was talking to him about the scenes to be filmed later.
"Mike, remember, your role is very important later. According to Director Yi, it is the finishing touch! Yes, it is the finishing touch! So you must use your full strength!" Peter squeezed Mike's shoulders and gave
he cheered.
Mike took a deep breath. To be honest, he was very nervous. In the past, whether he was filming a song MV or performing live on stage, he could do it with ease and seemed very relaxed, but today he felt particularly nervous.
Why is this happening?
Mike asked himself.
Maybe it has something to do with the surrounding atmosphere.
Not far away, the three beauties who played his apprentices in the play, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Alba, and Paris Hilton, were all ready.
The three little girls were not talking and laughing like before, but had different expressions. Especially when Jessica was the heroine for the first time, she was a little nervous and asked Anne next to her: "Can we film it?"
"It's okay, this drama is about to be finished!" Annie comforted her. "Don't be nervous, Jessica, just be as usual."
Pars, who was putting on shoes next to him, suddenly said: "Yeah, why are you nervous? Look at me, it's my first time filming, but I'm not nervous at all, I'm so relaxed!"
"Aren't you nervous?" Jessica asked suddenly.
"Yeah? What's wrong?" Pars didn't know why.
"Then why did you put your left shoe on your right foot?!"
"Ah, damn!" Pars's face turned red.
"Hahaha!" the girls laughed.
Even Michael Jackson next to him also laughed.
…
Inside the shooting location.
At half past seven, all kinds of work were ready. Even the extras acting as "audience" all entered the venue, sat down, and were on standby.
Looking around, there were three to four hundred people sitting in the entire studio hall, but the surroundings were silent. This atmosphere was very strange.
"Director, there's nothing wrong with the lighting!"
"The actors are in place!"
"Cameras in place!"
Everyone looked at Yi Feiyang with firm eyes.
There was an atmosphere of excitement and excitement in the crew, and Yi Feiyang was in the same mood as them. After such a long period of hard work, and countless days and nights of hard work, the movie was released on this night,
