Chapter 24 Tear!(2/2)
Although the position is now secured by producer Lin Sen's friend, she still wants to recommend one of her own to be the leading actor, so that after the film is launched, she can use her own ability to squeeze out Ronald, a well-connected person.
A film screenwriter who was just over 20 years old relied on luck to sell a script to Jane Fonda. How could the director's professional knowledge be compared to that of a top student who had an undergraduate degree from New York University and a master's degree in AFI? He had also made documentaries.
, and an excellent graduation short film, which earned Mount’s appreciation.
"He's a good actor, but he's a little older. Why don't we try Nicholas Coppola?" Ronald said Nicholas' last name, suggesting that he could sell his face to director Francis Coppola.
Tom Mount smiled, this guy actually had a good idea. If Coppola's new film "Old Love, New Love" hadn't been canceled by Paramount executives after seeing the sample, the internal preview in October could have been sold.
he.
Paramount was internally dissatisfied with the daily dailies shot by Coppola and was prepared to abandon the release of Coppola's new film.
Coppola is carrying tens of millions of dollars in debt from Chase Bank. If his new film fails to sell well, he is likely to go bankrupt. Now executives in the industry are wondering whether Coppola has exhausted his talents.
Producers who still have confidence in him don't want to lend a hand to rescue him, so they might as well wait until he goes bankrupt and then sign multiple film contracts with him at a cheap price to take advantage.
"No, we can't use him."
"Why? Because his performance is too 'dark'?" Ronald was shocked. This was Mount directly rejecting his choice. When the male lead Brad was chosen, both of his choices failed?
"Because he is underage."
"But his audition information said he was 18 years old?" Ronald remembered Nicholas Coppola's information, which was obviously an adult.
"He made a fake, and we have confirmed it with Francis. He admitted that Nicholas is only 17 years old and can only shoot for 6 hours a day."
"But Brooke..." As soon as Ronald said this, he knew that he was wrong. He should not have agreed to the idea of inviting Brooke.
"Yes, Brooke is a star. If she is willing to come, we can revise the script for her, and then look at hiring an actor of similar acting status to her to cooperate."
If Brooke is willing to come, the budget will be increased, and the leading actor will have to be replaced by a big name. If Brooke doesn't come, there is a high probability that he will not come, and then Nicholas is not suitable for this small-scale film because he is not old enough.
