Chapter 42

According to the custom of Greek wedding, there will be a new wedding reception after the church swears.

At this banquet, "Turan" Dad's words are the soul of the whole scene.

The actor, who played Nicole Kidman 's Greek father, is in his 60s and is a true Greek. He used to only make guest appearances in TV shows.

Fortunately, this role is not complicated, it is necessary to show loving, honest and old-fashioned temperament.

For this old man, most of them are starring.

"Hello everyone, and welcome to Porto Carlos's feast." Dad spoke a Greek accent in English and almost made everyone laugh when he spoke.

"Uh ... uh ... and Miller's house feast." The expression of the father reversed a few times. "I was thinking last night, my son-in-law Ian Miller. The name of Miller comes from the Greek word. The root 'Milo' means Apple. "

Dad is deeply proud of him as a Greek ethnic group with the origin of Western culture development." Many people know that my surname is Porto Carlos, which is from the Greek. The root of the word 'Podo Caroki' means orange. Well, now we know that we have apples and oranges tonight. We come from different backgrounds, but we have the same basis. We are all fruits. "

This is also the warmest scene in the whole movie. As a weird dad who only wanted to marry his daughter to the Greeks, he showed enough fatherly love at the scene of his daughter's wedding.

Next, the father took out his life savings and bought a house as a wedding gift for his daughter, which was the biggest tear point of the film.

This is the tradition of Greek culture. Americans do not have such a custom, and also use such a lens to show that the film is not a discrimination against Greek culture, but also has respect.

The shooting was as smooth as ever, Tang En excitedly announced to everyone, "My Big Fat Greek wedding" is now complete! "

" Wow! "

Tang En's core team is mostly the first time to participate in the film production, the performance is far more than The others were excited. Glen Fierro opened his arms and threw it at Tang En, "God, I actually participated in a movie, Tang En, big boss, you ... you are my God!"

Tang En pushed away in disgust, "Get up, at this time, I am more willing to hug the woman!" As he said, he laughed and opened his arms to Nicole Kidman.

Nicole Kidman could not have agreed to his request in a broad manner, and glared coldly at him, completely unreasonable.

In a burst of laughter, Sofia Coppola came generously and hugged Don, "Congratulations to Don, you have completed another movie. I have a hunch that you have succeeded this time."

Tang En laughed, "Sophia, then I'll borrow your good words."

At this time, Catherine Hegel also walked over with her hips twisted and hips, with a smiling smile on her pretty face, a sweet voice, "Congratulations, Tang En, at the same time ... thank you for taking care of me over this period of time."

Everyone in the crew felt a terrible cold, and 10,000 times "Bi Chi" had scolded in his heart.

Nicole Kidman and Sofia Coppola were strange, not at all disdainful.

In Hollywood, there are countless beautiful girls who want to be stars, and there is no snack machine, how can they succeed? Isn't Nicole Kidman too close to Tom Cruise's thigh?

Do n't laugh at anyone!

Dunn with her tightly in a moment and said:. "Catherine, you are now acting to have problems, need to hone but I believe if you work hard, there is ten years, when the actress will be able to"

front then let Katherine Heigl Ruzhui icehouse, nearly fainted, and good back then letting her some hope, "Thank you for your guidance, Dunn, I will work hard."

"ah."

Dunn point Nod, for such a small person, without the freshness at the beginning, the interest is less than half. To Sofia said: "The crew will disband, let's go to your house?"

This was said early in the morning, Tang En is going to visit Mr. Francis Coppola.

"Yes."

Sofia found that Catherine Haiger was a little disappointed on the face and patted her on the back. "Let's start with the TV series. In terms of your current situation, it is difficult to have good development in the movie industry. Even if Dunn wants to help you, you have to have enough strength, right? "

Catherine Hegel smiled," Thank you Sofia, I understand. "

... The

Coppola family has in the United States With huge influence, this year's "Times Weekly" ranks fourth in the United States, even higher than legendary families like Rockefeller.

Francis Coppola 's home is not in the drunken Beverly Hills, which is the gathering place of new celebrities. For the Coppola family, such identity display is no longer needed.

His home is in Pasadena, a well-known city under the jurisdiction of Los Angeles. It is not as crowded as Beverly Hills, with a back-to-back mountain and is a retreat.

Francis Coppola's home is very large, so big Dunn almost stunned.

The huge lawn is like a football field. Several clean streets are parked with several mobility vehicles.

Pavilions, sculpture fountains, exotic flowers and trees, dazzling.

Liv Taylor once said that when he came to Down's house, he felt that he had lived in a slum.

Coming to the home of Francis Coppola, Dunn also felt the mood of Liv Taylor.

"It was all made decades ago, and it didn't cost a few bucks." Sophia pouted repeatedly, apparently she didn't like the shade of the family, just like her cousin Nicolas Cage.

After Sofia's introduction, Tang En finally met the famous legendary director.

Francis Coppola is a little fat, round face, big beard, casually dressed like an old friend meeting, added a little bit of affinity.

For this great director, Tang En expressed his respect from the heart.

Not to mention, his "Godfather" trilogy, every once in a while, will be shown repeatedly in the cinema.

The "The Godfather", which was produced in 1972 for $ 6 million, has accumulated 245 million at the box office this year, not to mention the huge influence in the world's film history.

"Hello, Mr. Coppola, I'm Tang En. The movie has just been killed. I came to visit you specifically, mainly to thank you for your help that day."

In front of such a big brother, Tang En does not need to hide, nor can he hide.

That day, Dunn persuaded Francis Coppola under the lame excuse of "Sophia was scorned." Obviously this can only be an excuse.

Can Francis' IQ be understood?

Who did n't know that Sofia was his daughter? Not to mention the little gangsters in Chicago, even the Italian mafia elite dared not move her.

Francis Coppola pointed to the chair. "It's no big deal if Hollywood wants to maintain the dignity of Hollywood."

Downe couldn't help but awe.

Sure enough, it is a Hollywood filmmaker, and the concept of capitalists who have broken into Hollywood in these years is completely two dimensions!

The most typical thing is that it has been bought and sold three times, and last year it re-entered MGM's Cork Kokrian, completely ruining a century-old store like MGM. Don't look at the harmony in Hollywood, a filmmaker like Francis Coppola who has struggled in Hollywood all his life has long hated it!

"It's a pity that the power of capital is getting stronger and stronger." Tang En sent out his emotions that were very inconsistent with his age.

Francis Coppola nodded slightly, "Seven years ago, Time Group acquired Warner; three years ago, Viacom acquired Paramount; two years ago, Disney acquired ABC at a high price of nearly $ 20 billion; last year, Time Warner 76 USD billion acquisition of TBS. recently, it was rumored that the big news, Weiyakangmu being approached CBS, once the merger is complete, you may want to spend nearly $ 40 billion! "

Dunn intended to look a gift horse," Colombia shadow there before being acquired Sony The industry, the Fox Pictures acquired by News Corporation, the taste of Hollywood has really changed a little. "

" It still tastes good before. "Francis Coppola sighed, which is the feeling of the elderly.

Tang En is a little strange. The two met for the first time, and the identity and status of the two sides are so disparate. What does it mean that this Mr. Coppola is so sympathetic?

"Don't you really treat me as your son-in-law?"

Tang En's face changed slightly, and he felt chills in his heart, and he had to draw a line quickly. "Sophia is my good friend. I hope she can be a pure and excellent The filmmaker, not the tool for making money in the hands of capital. "

Francis Coppola took a look in his eyes, and his turbid eyes gave Dunn a few deep glances, revealing a smile of appreciation.

During this time talking to her daughter on the phone, Sofia had long praised the young boy's heaven and earth and was omnipotent. Seeing today, it turned out to be a very intelligent person.

"The dignity of the Coppola family does not allow anyone to trample on. Sophia loves movies, which I know very well, but she is a woman after all, and Hollywood is very unfriendly to women. I am old, it is difficult to protect her for too long, times Changed, we old guys will eventually leave the stage. "

Francis Coppola's voice was a little more sullen.

Even an absolute big brother like him thinks he can't keep up with the times, which shows that capital has penetrated Hollywood seriously.

Tang En immediately said: "Mr. Coppola, you are still young. In my opinion, you can still make movies for at least 20 years! As for Sofia, you do n't have to worry. She is my good friend. Tang En has no skill. , But can also protect my friend from grievances. If she likes Oscar, I will do my best to help. "

Francis Coppola appreciates the young man in front of him more and more quickly and surprisingly.

Especially in the quiet transaction negotiations, the calm and gentle look of the water, there is a sense of both the boss of the brokerage company.

Trading, the prevailing norm in Hollywood.

"Well, I heard your Oscar nomination ... something went wrong?" Francis Coppola understands Don's thoughts.

Tang En sighed bitterly, "It's a problem, you know, I'm only twenty after the new year, and I'm a little younger."

Francis Coppola waved his hand, "Age is not a problem! When he was nominated for Oscar by " Boyz n the Hood", he was only 24 years old. What kind of film was he making? If the director of "Titanic" could not be nominated, it would be an Oscar joke! "

Tang En was relieved and finally laughed. .

With the affirmation of this big brother, his nomination should be indispensable.

"It's just ... can you win the award?"

James Cameron of the previous life, but really won the Academy Award for Best Director.
