Compared with works in recent years, "Diego Ross" can be said to be one of the smallest films in Murphy's opening. Due to the type of the film and the nature of the awards season, Twentieth Century Fox used a typical niche preview method. In the first week of this film, it will only be previewed in two theaters in New York and three theaters in Los Angeles.

The film is previewed on a small scale, and of course there will be no grand premiere, but a special event involving media reporters and film critics is essential.

On the afternoon of December 26, Murphy came to the Artist Theater on Nokia Plaza. Unlike the completely commercialized Hollywood China Theater, it is a theater specially designed for screening art films, which is the so-called "art theater". Many small productions that have impacted the awards season have been previewed here.

When Murphy came, Robert Downey Jr., Margot Robbie and Cara Fais had arrived and were chatting with Bill Roses and Grace in the front hall of the theater.

There is still some time before the film begins, and there is no premiere, so the guests invited to participate in this special preview will not come very early.

"Where is Gale?" Margot Robbie came over and asked, "Why didn't you come?"

Murphy nodded to his friends and partners, and replied, "She is going to negotiate with Netflix."

Now Stanton Studio has come up with a script outline and a general shooting plan, and has also recruited the screenwriter team to formally write the script. Netflix has also accelerated its pace. The negotiations between the two sides have reached the final stage, and a formal cooperation agreement will definitely be signed before Christmas.

Robert Downey Jr. came over at this time, "It's a pity that Ross can't see this movie."

"I went to see him a few days ago." Murphy whispered, "I have told him about the movie. I will find a way to get him a player like mp4."

He originally made this movie for Ross. If Ross himself couldn't see it, it would lose the greatest meaning. Although it was difficult to bring things to Ross, his care is relatively relaxed now, and as long as he is willing to spend money, it is not impossible.

"Murphy..." Cara Fais also came to Murphy near, "The audit committee has approved it and will spend no less than eight million US dollars on the winning bid for this film."

She spread her hands and said, "This is the limit I can get."

"Thank you, Kara." Murphy gently patted Kara-Face's arm, "Thank you for your support..."

If there is no support from a powerful company behind the film, if you want to make a difference in the awards season, the difficulty will increase exponentially.

Kara Fis shook his head, "Do we still have to say this?"

Murphy smiled slightly and said, "If this video cannot recover the cost, I promise that I will make a profit for Twentieth Century Fox in the future."

"You..." Carafes knew Murphy was joking.

Twentieth Century Fox earned high profits from its cooperation with Stanton Studio. Not to mention the films with small investments and high output in the past, even if the total investment of "City of Chaos", which reached $300 million, did not seem to have recovered from the box office, but after this period of later operation, the surrounding TV broadcasts and online on-demand broadcasts were very popular due to the fermentation of word-of-mouth effect. Twentieth Century Fox not only successfully recovered its profits, but also achieved a profit of more than $40 million.

Moreover, as time goes by, the more profits the film will generate, the more profits it will mean that more people will watch this film, and the more likely the second film will be to have a stronger audience base and the greater the possibility of a box office explosion.

It is not difficult for anyone with discerning eyes to see these.

Of course, the dividends Murphy received were also very high, with a total income of 25% of the dividends...

This guy must be rich.

Carla Fais began to think about what day he had to go out for vacation with Gal Gadot. The things should not be right, as long as they were expensive, let Murphy pay for it.

After chatting with everyone, Murphy saw his public relations agent Grace, and waved to her and called her over.

"You can take a look for it," he whispered, "where is there a private airplane show in the California area recently."

Grace nodded immediately, "Well, I'll have someone check it out and I'll reply to you in the afternoon."

Margot Robbie, who was standing next to Murphy, heard their words and asked curiously, "Are you going to buy a plane?"

"Yeah." Murphy turned his head and said to her, "to buy a private jet."

In the past month, Gal Gadot has negotiated everywhere and flew around. It is inconvenient to take flights. He is planning to purchase a business jet, which can also facilitate his travel.

Margot Robbie was interested, "Buy a Boeing 747, and you can convert it into a flying palace."

Of course Murphy wouldn't listen to this unreliable suggestion and said to her, "You should care more about when you can get the Oscar nomination."

"Oscar nomination?" Margot Robbie held his face with one hand. "It's too difficult to win a blonde beauty like me."

Media reporters began to come in at the entrance of the theater. Murphy didn't plan to continue talking to Margot Robbie about this topic, and casually threw down a sentence, "Become ugly, disabled, mental problems..."

"Hey, Murphy." Margot Robbie thought Murphy was deliberately teasing him, so she raised her voice a little, but Murphy ignored him and walked directly towards Bill Rossis.

Margot Robbie looked at Murphy's back and quickly closed her mouth because she discovered that this was the prompt Murphy gave her.

As a blonde beauty, she knew very well that she really couldn't have enough food in Hollywood with her face. If she hadn't had Murphy and David Robbie's relationship, who would have known where to hang out now? Maybe she was still running around for a small character.

Then, Margot Robbie remembered Charlize Theron who worked with Murphy, a South African woman who can be regarded as the example of all beautiful actresses like herself.

Charlize Theron's successful transformation is definitely a role model for Hollywood Vase actresses. Taking beauty from the face and putting it in your heart, or simply making a fool of yourself and torture the audience. This is the only way for idols to powerful people.

Although the method is a bit patterned, beauty is like an interfering message that tests acting skills. I believe few people can be completely undisturbed and instead focus on the so-called inner self.

Hollywood also happily paid for their sacrifices and presented awards to major film festivals with both hands.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, just emphasize the inner ignorance of appearance, isn’t it also a kind of discrimination?

Margot Robbie shook her head, no longer thinking about it, and socialized with the rest of the crew to participate in the preview.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, the Grand Theater of Literature and Artists was packed, and the preview of "Diego Ross" began on time.

"As a director, it's a big taboo to shoot biographical movies of people who are close to you!"

Sitting in the third row, Todd McCarthy, a film critic for the Hollywood Reporter, told his old friend Kenneth Toulan, "Murphy Stanton has always been a smart man, why did he make such an unwise choice?"

"Look at the movie first." Kenneth Tulan pointed to the lit big screen, "I'll say something else after watching the movie."

Todd McCarthy's eyes also turned to the big screen, "Okay, let's watch the movie first."

Not only them, there are many critics from other media and Internet columns sitting around, but they are much younger than them.

Everyone looked at the big screen. Although the film was not invested heavily and there were not many promotional activities, there were a lot of controversy and attention. The biopic shot by Murphy Stanton for his drug dealer friends...

If Murphy Stanton sang praises to his friends, they would have something to say.

The opening of the 20th Century Fox and Stanton Studio flashed quickly, and a shot that was obviously a downward shot appeared on the screen. The lens started with a colorful panoramic view of downtown Los Angeles. As the lens became tighter and tighter, the picture color became lighter and lighter, and the tone became darker, and eventually turned into black and white like dark clouds.

Against the backdrop of black and white lenses, the Los Angeles slums flashing through the big screen are old, dilapidated and chaotic, not like America, but more like Africa…

Todd McCarthy couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, "The use and transformation of lenses and colors are simply natural."

“Revealing the worst side of America…”

This shot eliminates technical factors and the content contained in this shot just scratches the itchy spot of an old man like Kenneth Tulan. He is an authentic Los Angeles native. Isn’t the Angel City just like this? He nodded, “A real artist must have the courage to uncover the glitz and show the abscess inside!”

Murphy Stanton is undoubtedly a very brave filmmaker!

Compared to the old men, several young film critics around him were nodding, especially the Clos Ismail, who has online columns and is very influential on social networking sites.

“Is America OK?”

If someone asks him this question for ten years, he will definitely answer: America is the paradise of this world!

But when he grew up, he discovered that there was too much injustice, too much darkness, too much corruption, and too much disgusting things in this country.

As a result, his thoughts gradually changed as his country was really bad!

After becoming a film critic, Close Ismail is famous for his sarcastic and meanness. Those films that American save the world are always satirized by him!

If the world needs America to save it? Who will save the rotten America?

Adhering to this concept, when he saw the most shameful side of Los Angeles, which is famous for its glitz, was revealed by the director without reservation at the beginning of a film, and his emotions were instantly mobilized.
